Bryan Adams releases his first ever two-CD Anthology that includes a limited edition DVD of previously unreleased 2005 concert.

The biggest retrospective of his multi-platinum career, Anthology is to be released in North America 18 October, 2005. The International track listing and release date is soon to be confirmed.

The 36-selection Anthology spans Adams’ entire career from 1980 to 2005, and includes two new recordings. Most notably a new song, So Far So Good, which not-so-coincidentally was the title of his first 1993 quintuple platinum greatest hits disc. It also boasts a newly recorded version of When You’re Gone with pop culture idol Pamela Anderson. When You’re Gone will be released as the new radio single in America soon.

The definitive collection includes four #1 hits, and 6 of his top 10 hits. In addition the package includes photographs and an essay by renowned music critic Dave Marsh. A bonus is a limited edition concert DVD shot in Lisbon, Portugal this past February.

Thought I’d Died And Gone To Heaven

hm...i don't know that song....do you?

and uuuuuh, a duet with Pamela Anderson! I really want to know how her singing voice And....is So Far So good also a new song?

[Steve]

Looks like an excellent anthology! The Pamela Anderson duet seems a little strange to include on an anthology album. But I just listened to a sample of the song (see below) and she sings harmony which sounds pretty good. It may be great publicity for the release.

The DVD will be great, too! I read a lot of good things about the Lisbon concert!

If you don't have it yet, GO AND GET IT!!!!! ;D It's really worth it!

[Steve]

Caro, I'm soooo happy that you have it now too!

Yes, get this DVD of Live in Lisbon that comes with the Limited Edition Anthology! It's an unbelievable performance that just really excited me about this band! BA's music takes on a whole new life when it's performed live. The band has incredible musicianship and timing, such as the little pause at the beginning "Kids Wanna Rock." Keith's guitar on "Cloud No. 9" sounds like he's doing a tribute to The Edge of U2.

This limited edition DVD was shot on Super 8 and 16mm film, sometimes with handheld camera, so it has an artsy, often grainy look to it. Sometimes you can even see the spit leaving Bryan's mouth as he sings ;D. Yes, that's called giving it 100%!

Keith Scott, Gary Breit, and Norm Fisher are all there. There are lots of close-up shots of the band members in action, including great shots from behind Mickey at his drum kit and of Keith and Bryan's guitar work. The music sounds FABULOUS, the live performances are EXCELLENT as usual, and the audience is really enthusiastic. Lisbon was a great choice for filming. I think I like the songs from "Room Service" even better when performed live. Keith Scott is wonderful as ever. Both Keith and Mickey have great solos on "Kids Wanna Rock." "Heaven" is performed a little more "up-tempo," but it still sounds great. I get goosebumps during "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You." Bryan steps down off the stage and mingles with the appreciative audience during "The Best of Me."

The last four songs are just Bryan solo with his guitar and, on "Straight from the Heart," he has his harmonica on a harmonica holder. I like his acoustic version of "Flying" and "Room Service." Awesome!

The Limited Edition 2 CD/DVD Anthology is a really great value. It's well worth it!

What I am wondering is this: Is the upcoming DVD Live in Lisbon, going to be exactly the same thing or will it be the concert as filmed with the larger cameras? Does anybody know?
