Reviews Customer Reviews for Masterfile 1 Bonus Track      Icehouse sounds like...      Rating:      well, Icehouse, really. One reviewer below states "Icehouse has always been accused of ripping off Roxy Music" ... I find that to be a very strange thing to say :) I am very familiar with both bands, and I must say I never (and still do not) see the slightest connection between these two bands. I have always considered Icehouse to have an original sound. But if pressed... really pressed, the best comparision I could come with is perhaps with Ultravox... but I'm far from happy even with that comparison. Anyway... this is a very good compilation album of Flowers/Icehouse material, with a good amount of content from their debut album, when they were known as Flowers, and their first album was titled Icehouse. I recently bought that album on CD, and wow... it really is brilliant, and very very underrated. Even after 26 years, it sounds fantastic to my ears. I was fortunate enough to see them perform many times in their earlier days, and their live sound was very true to their studio work. In short, if youre into Flowers/Icehouse, you cant go wrong with this compilation, there are no dud tracks, and covers their history reasonably well.     Customer Reviews for Masterfile 1 Bonus Track Cd      As Good As It Gets      Rating:      This CD is as good as it gets for my taste, one of my top 5 CDs (just remember we all have different tastes, fortunately). How anyone could claim that Icehouse sounds like Roxy Music is baffling to say the least. I guess someone will claim Miles Davis sounds like Kylie Monogue next. This contains tracks from many previous CDs, and there are no duds on this, just plenty of standouts. Don't let the comparatively steep pricing deter you. Other Icehouse masterpieces to consider are "Man Of Colours" & "Code Blue", though these do not rate as highly as this work to this reviewer. A very underrated CD.
