Metal Ballads
"Metal Ballads" (12/2005) Rock & Pop Various Artists, Sony Music Distribution (USA)Sony Special Products' ten-song Metal Ballads collection takes a few liberties with the genre. While hair metal mainstays like Europe ("Carrie"), Bad English ("When I See You Smile") and Warrant ("I Saw Red") fit the mold, outright pop acts such as the Bangles ("Eternal Flame" REO Speedwagon ("Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore") and Bonnie Tyler ("Total Eclipse of the Heart") should have appeared on another, more appropriately titled compilation. ~ James Christopher Monger

Ballads
"Ballads" (09/26/1997) Rock & Pop Doro, MercuryAlthough best known as a heavy metal vocalist, Doro certainly also has a softer side -- as evidenced by such releases as 2005's Classic Diamonds (which saw the singer backed by a symphony) and especially 2001's The Ballads. As its title clearly states, the 13-track collection focuses strictly on Doro's more serene compositions, something that old-school Warlock fans may have difficulty coming to terms with. But rarely has the singer's voice been showcased as well as it is here, especially on such tracks as "F?r Immer" and a cover of "A Whiter Shade of Pale." That said, there are also quite a few tracks that tread on power ballad schmaltz, a prime culprit being "Children of the Night." In fact, with the presence of quite a few unmistakably heavy metal guitar solos, a much more fitting title would have been "The Power Ballads." ~ Greg Prato

Power Ballads, Vol. 2 by Various Artists (Cassette - 04/03/2001)
"Power Ballads, Vol. 2" (04/03/2001) Heavy Metal Various Artists, FlaRhino Flashback's second volume of Power Ballads gathers more of hair metal's most "lighter-worthy" moments. Mr. Big's very un-metal "To Be with You" and Damn Yankees' impossibly irritating "High Enough" may not have found themselves atop the critic's year-end lists, but they have remained FM fixtures in the years that followed. ~ James Christopher Monger

Ballads (+ Bonus DVD)
"Ballads" (11/03/2003) Rock & Pop Scorpions, EMI Music DistributionA unique Chinese issue of the German metal stalwart's most loved ballads; includes "You & I" and "Still Loving You." 2003, Chinese import. CD contains bonus DVD. Every hard rock and heavy metal band has a soft spot, and the conduit by which they emote is the venerable power ballad. The Scorpions perfected this art with their 1984 smash "Still Loving You," a dark indulgent love letter that utilized the siren-like croon of frontman Klaus Meine. Inspired by the song's success, the German rockers made sure to include at least two ballads on each and every album thereafter, resulting in the appropriately titled slow-dance retrospective, Ballads. EMI's collection contains 15 arena-sized tracks that implore you to turn the lights out, raise your lighter, and call up your high-school girlfriend. Fans will already own everything here, and casual listeners would do better picking up Hip-O's 2002 compilation Bad for Good: The Very Best of the Scorpions, as it contains the best tracks from Ballads, as well as full-throttle anthems like "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and "No One Like You." [The Asian version includes a bonus DVD with excerpts from Moment of Glory: Live.] ~ James Christopher Monger

Minstrels & Ballads
"Minstrels and Ballads" (08/26/2002) Rock & Pop Blackmore, Ritchie, Pony Canyon Records (Japan)A very well-packaged and superbly compiled Japanese album highlighting some of the best material from each of Blackmore's Night's first three albums, Minstrels and Ballads emphasizes the gentler side of the project. That it offers little of interest to the dyed-in-the-wool Deep Purple/Rainbow fanatic is no surprise -- even absolute neophytes will glance at the cover and digest the title, and know Blackmore's Night delves deep into what modern marketing calls Celtic and new age pastures. However, Blackmore's long-renowned abilities are by no means dormant as he sacrifices volume and electricity for intricacy and warmth and, if Candice Night's vocals (not to mention her sometimes second-hand Stevie Nicks imagery) can grow a little cloying when listened to protractedly, still there's enough dexterity on display to take your mind off her harsher extremes. Song-wise, the album breaks down via five songs from the duo's debut album, four from its sophomore effort, and five from 2001's Fires at Midnight -- including that genre-bending reworking of Dylan's "The Times They Are a Changin'." There's also (perhaps inevitably) an airing of "Greensleeves," a number that Blackmore has had his eye on since at least the early days of Rainbow, and which says as much about Blackmore's Night's versatility as any of the original songs -- maybe even more. Those other tracks, after all, are the sound of Blackmore realigning old musical traditions to the capabilities of his own band. "Greensleeves" is the genuine article, but loses nothing in its updating. If you already own (and love) any of the original Blackmore's Night albums, Minstrels and Ballads is an extravagance that you really don't require -- just run out and buy the rest of the catalog. Anybody wishing to venture for the first time into the duo's captivating land of castles and cauldrons, however, could find no better guide than this. ~ Dave Thompson
