title: Decent

text: I must confess to being a little dissapointed with this album.  I've never been fond of "re-make" albums because they rarely (if ever) recapture the feeling of the originals.  This does however have my second favorite Petra line-up on it and it's good to see them back out there to reach the world for Jesus, and the songs they did here are among the best from the earlier years.  I would've much rather though seen an album of all new material, but hopefully that is coming in the near future.  Contrary to popular belief of todays society, Petra is one of the top Christian bands of all time, without whom the modern day bands (who can't even hold a candle to the talent of Petra) wouldn't be able to do what they do.  I don't know if I'd recomend this album to someone who's never heard Petra before, but rather to a long time fan who's looking to add to their collection.  For a new Petra fan, I'd recommend The Ultimate Collection to give an example of each step of their career, even though Come and Join Us seems to be unrepresented on it.


title: Five stars well deserved

I met Randy Stonehill once, even though I don't remember it -- it's blurred, like my meeting of Russ Lee and Joy Williams (who my Uncle Dan was manager of for a short time) and Bob Carlisle, who I remember having a hilarious sense of humor. His songs remind me of when I was really little, and now it's like a comforting sound from my toddler years, to hear lyrics and music that I've come to remember as a symbol of a good time.

Hand of God -- Wonderful. Hands down wonderful.

Fire -- Mysterious, slow in a good way, and haunting. Also hands down wonderful.

Sleeping -- Slow but pretty good anyway.

Father of Lights -- Energetic and loud but missing something...still, a good song.

Angel's Wings -- A heartbreaking-in-a-good-way song that gives a good idea of Heaven.

Baby Hates Clowns -- Just hilarious.

Every Heartbeat is a Prayer -- One of the best songs on the album. Right from the heart.

Lonely House -- Quiet, slow, and sad. About an unhappy marriage.

Little Rose -- A touching and heartbreaking song with great lyrics and music. About a girl in Haiti who has joy and hope and unconditional love even through the misery and hopelessness of her poverty-stricken life.

Everything You Know (Is Incorrect) -- a decent song with pretty good lyrics.

Keeper of the Bear -- Absolutely hilarious and brilliantly conceived. It's obvious the guy's a total kid at heart.

Rating: Very Good


title: Fame and Fortune

text: I have been listening to this cd in my car since June 27, 2015. I can't explain it exactly, but every song songs like a brand new cut. My favorite song on this album is "Fame and Fortune". I can listen to it over and over again. I have used it in my you tube video "Images Of Elvis Presley" and placed it on my website Elvis Presley Movies.Org. Please check it out...  http://elvispresleymovies.org/images-of-elvis-presley/


title: Great Entry Point

text: This is a great entry point for Flat Earth Society's music.  This is a vast sampling of their music.  The music ranges from dada-esque romps to new jack swing to relatively straight ahead music in the vein of Grand Wazoo Zappa.  It also comes with a download card for a bunch of X Legged Sally (the precursor to the Flat Earth Society).

title: Review on the CD from the movies Mughal-e Azam and Mother India.

text: No issues found with all the 22 hit songs played on the PC and the RCA DVD player. As good as the originals from these two ever green Hit Movies watched initially in the theatres of East Africa. Most of the songs sung by the legendary singers of  India's musical industry and backed by the greatest musicians. Many thanks to the  JSM Music of USA for make the CDS available at a reasonable price as well. Please make sure all the CDS and cases are vacuumed and wiped clean to prevent any damages and for quality listening and enjoyment and to last longer.

title: Review of the CDS on Cinema Raj Kapoor.

text: No issues of any found with the 30 songs recorded on the 2 set CDS. They all sounded as originals. Excellent recording. Lalaageez is one the reliable and dedicated suppliers of the Indian Entertainments. I still maintain that the CDS are vulnerable and need better casings. This item was subjected to some pressures and the  case was little bit damaged here and there. and most of the impact sustained by the hub  but CDS have been safe and sound.


title: Preview on CD songs from the Movies  Jhanak Jhanak Payal Baaje and Do Ankhen Baarah Haath.

title: Review on the CD songs from the movies Waqt and Khandan.

text: Excellent recording of the Hit songs you want to enjoy again and again. The movies Waqt and Khandan have earned the respect and admiration of millions around the world out of sound morals and values also practised consistently by many of them. Yet evil brings all to the edge to put our faith to the real test of our lives.


title: Review on the movie Nadaan.

text: Story of family drama out of feuds and also the reality of today's world and which can never end in many cases as many do not want them to end anyway. Played by some of the best of the Indian Film Industry for example Asha Parekh of Hum Hindustani and Helen of Gumnaam. Full of Hit songs with the beautiful sceneries of the Northern India.


title: Review on the Movie Benazir.

text: I saw this movie long time ago in the 60s or 70s.Great actors and drama. Good quality sound and video. Lots of Hit songs that you would like to hear again and again.


title: Review on 101 Duets of Asha Bhonsle.

text: A lot of video songs  in this  3 disc set are indeed Hits to my taste. Most of the songs in Waqt movie sung by Asha may also have been part of this package. But most of them have a very good clarity of Audio as well. Lately a lot of new faces have begun to appear in the current movies and some of them may evolve into legends Time will only tell.


title: Review on 101 Lata Mangehkar Hits

text: Many movies and even our own lives would have been otherwise without the golden voice and artistic talents of the legendary singer-Lata Mangeshkar. I consider  Lata to be the Mother of the Music Industry of India as her songs continue to entertain and grace the homes of the Western World as well. The 3 disc set is priceless and antique that you would be addicted to eternally. The resolution and audio are as originally created. Beware when unlocking the discs from its seat or damage would occur.


title: Review of Anari.

text: The story of innocents trapped in the world of conspiracies and only the Miracles of the Holy Spirit can bail them out. Played by the veteran evergreens of the movie industry. Full of hit songs keep us entertained in the midst of drama and suspense..


title: ... songs would be otherwise than we have come to enjoy.. Thus the success of many singers owed ...

text: The pair has been gifted legendary musicians for ages without which songs would be otherwise than we have come to enjoy.. Thus the success of many singers owed to Shanker and Jaikishan. Again 3 discs for the price of 1 is a very good bargain. Please beware of the damage to the discs when unlocking. I suggest improvising otherwise  to alleviate this problem with the separate cases for each disc.

title: "Now this is GOOD country!"

text:
Is it country? Is it blues? Is it rock? YES! From Lancaster PA, Timothy Truman & The Dixie Pistols put together one of the coolest albums of the late 80's, one that doesn't quite fit into any one category, and certainy didn't sound anything like what was then "popular" on the radio. Somewhere between the sound of John Fogerty and The Blues Brothers Band (esp. if you've heard their 1992 RED WHITE AND BLUES album), these guys were probably the very first "bar band" I ever ran across. And, as my best friend down in Georgia (who can't stand country music) told me when he heard it, "Now this is GOOD country!"

Tim Truman has been blowing my mind with his talents as a writer & artist ever since I first saw his work in STARSLAYER, then GRIMJACK. In issue 19 of his own book, SCOUT, he included a "flexi-disc" with 2 songs, including a LIVE version of "Blues Crusade". The moment I heard it, it became one of my fave songs. It almost seems unnatural for someone to have this much talent in both comic-books AND music! Looking back, I was midway thru art school when MARAUDERS came out, which probably explains why I missed it. It took me until THIS year to finally track down a copy (in "NEW" condition!) and I'm having my mind blown all over again.

One thing about this LP that stands out, apart from the music itself, is the quality of the mix and the pressing. Too many albums have the bass cranked up so loud you can't hear the lyrics, and in the 1980's, record labels were trying so hard to push CDs they let the printing quality of their LPs plummet. NEITHER of these problems apply here. For a tiny company like Eclipse (whose main output was comic-books), they did a BETTER job on this thing than most of the big labels were doing at the time! I was STUNNED by the crystal-clarity of the sound on this disc-- which only made me all the more glad I sprung for an unopened copy.

Now I've put the whole thing on CD, including the 2 flexi-disc songs, so it's even better. I can play this as much as I want without ever wearing it out! Truman is currently working on a long-awaited follow-up. Between tunes like "Penny's Farm" and the absolutely hilarious "Ballad of Oscar Wilde", fans have something special to look forward to.


title: MAGNIFICENT voice; but not all MY choices

text: I've been fanatical about Kevin Johnson's cross-breed of rock & country since the day I saw him in Philly (warming up for-- of all people-- The FRIGGS!).  His 3 albums have gotten more play than most artists' I've  bought in the last few years, and my love for his music just grows all the  time.  As usual, this comp, which tries to narrow down the best of his 3  CDs, doesn't match all my choices.  (Then again, I needed a 90-minute tape  to do THAT!)  But honestly-- tacking on ONE song that appears nowhere ELSE?  I sense a shamelessly commercial record-label exec at work here...!

title: Easy Listening Covers of Popular Songs

text: Like California Dreamin and Cherish. It's a good example of the genre. Pleasant to listen to.


title: Truly for lovers of incredible trumpet music

text: Probably the best classical trumpet album ever. It's certainly my favorite. The tone Andre gets out of the instrument is incredible, and the arrangements are done to highlight the trumpet and keep it front and center.


title: Great CD of a long-lost soundtrack to a classic film

text: Finally, a CD release of the complete, original Max Steiner soundtrack to "The Caine Mutiny," the vinyl LP of which was reportedly pulled from the market shortly after the film's release back in the '50's, and has commanded astronomical prices from collectors ever since.  All the film's music -- the main title, songs ("I Can't Believe That You're In Love With Me" as sung by "May Wynn"), melodies, and scene-specific pieces and cues -- are all on the CD.  Recommended and well-worth having for true fans of the novel and film, if for Steiner's rousing main title and the Caine-at-sea themes, if nothing else.


title: Several decent versions of the main theme, but missing all the major and memorable incidental music & secondary themes

text:
This CD contains several decent versions of the "The Rat Patrol" TV show theme ("The Rat Patrol Main Title," "The Rat Patrol End Credits," and "Theme From The Rat Patrol"), but is sorely lacking in all the other major and memorable secondary themes and music.  Amazing, considering there are 42 additional bits of music, the shortest at 49 seconds and the longest at more than 5 minutes, most all of them unrecognizable to fans of this classic late-'60's TV show, including myself -- and I've got both seasons of the show on DVD.

The CD is nicely packaged, with the insert booklet fronting a great photo of the show's four main cast members, and contains some interesting text about the making of the show and Dominic Frontiere's remarks on creating the soundtrack.  As with any re-recorded compilation of soundtrack music from a television show performed by  musicians other than the originals (in this case the Graunke Symphony Orchestra, although per the CD's text notes, supposedly conducted by Frontiere), the main theme pieces I mentioned above sound just a tad different from the music on the TV episodes.

Overall, a disappointment, due to the inexplicable omission of some memorable secondary themes and music from the show.  I'm glad I got a used copy, and didn't pay too much  for this item.


title: In very good condition.

text: I have the LP.In very good condition...BUT..when I decided to get the cd..WO!It blew me away.The music score is SUPER.I listen to it in my car..It puts me right there..in THE BIG COUNTRY.I received my cd within 1 week..in great condition.Would purchase from them again.Thankyou for a great SOUNDTRACK!!!!!!!!!!!!

title: all wonderfully remastered. Each CD is housed in a cardboard ...

text:
This is a fabulous collection of 9 CDS comprising 227 tracks of 15 classic LPs plus bonus tracks, all wonderfully remastered.
Each CD is housed in a cardboard sleeve with the original release artwork. The outer box is thick cardboard (clamshell style).

The contents are:
Disc 1: Swing Easy! / Songs for Young Lovers (plus 12 bonus tracks)
Disc 2: In the Wee Small Hours (plus 8 bonus tracks)
Disc 3: Songs for Swingin' Lovers! (plus 11 bonus tracks)
Disc 4: Only the Lonely (plus 7 bonus tracks)
Disc 5: Come Dance with Me! / Come Fly with Me (plus 3 bonus tracks)
Disc 6: Nice 'n' Easy / Look to Your Heart
Disc 7: Sinatra's Swingin' Session!!! / A Swingin' Affair (plus 2 bonus tracks)
Disc 8: Come Swing with Me! / Sing Along with Me
Disc 9: Ring-a-Ding Ding! / I Remember Tommy...

There's a booklet that includes the original liner notes from each album (which are nothing to write home about).  The tracks are listed on each CD sleeve.  It's a British collection and if you buy it from Amazon's UK site, it's an unbelievable bargain -- less than $25 shipped to the US, brand new.  Apparently, it's not available as a US release due to differences in copyright laws.  If you want to see the complete track listing, go to Amazon's UK site, and you'll find a lot more 5-star reviews as well.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!


title: Five Stars

text: Great videos - better than being at the concert!


title: disc won't play on any CD player

text: This review has nothing to do with the music. The disc is defective. It won't play on any of our CD players, (we haven't tried the car yet). My man was able to make a copy of the tunes on his computer by burning a new CD, but it is cumbersome to play the songs one by one. Better is to find and listen to the CD on YouTube, which is what we should've done in the first place. But how were we to know we'd get a CD that doesn't work?


title: Contemporary sound good mesage!

text: It was a gift. Bought more as gifts.


title: How The Music Business Rips Off Artists

text:
Wow, where do I began. I recorded this album in Nashville in 1995. My good friend Jon Swensson invested his life savings into producing it and here it is on Amazon.com for sale from someone I don't even know. How did they get a hold of my music and why are they profiting from the sale of my music while myself and Jon Swensson receive nothing? This is a prime example of how the music business operates. OK so I have some investigating to do. :(

title: My wife was looking for this record

text: Great songs!


title: Great Teaching on Creation

text: The story is fun and great for illustrating how far one has to stretch the imagination to believe in evolution. The songs reinforce the teaching well and are fun too.


title: Wonderful mix of songs

text: I, along with my 7 and 10 year old grandsons have thoroughly enjoyed the songs on this cd. Some are geared more to adults and some more to children, a really good mix. The songs make the car ride fun as we sing along.


title: Any C.Crows fan should have this!!

text: I found this @ a used CD store years ago. This is by far one my favorite Cd's by the Counting Crows.<br />Any real fan needs to ad this to their collection.


title: Make sure you have a blu-ray player

text: This is a good album but the regular cd only comes with 11 songs. To get the other 2 you have to play the blu-ray disc. I guess I'm behind the times as I don't have a blu-ray player so I'm missing out.


title: Lovely album

text: I had heard another album by Kavin Hoo, Relax - The Orient, and was looking for more music by this artist. I find the compositions on Above the Clouds not only relaxing but beautiful to just listen to. They are each unique, featuring at times piano, strings or voice as the lead instrument. A couple of them have oriental sounding melodies, but others sound dramatic and almost cinematic in scope. I particularly like A Chance Encounter and Sailboat in the Sky. These are lovely, rich melodies with a depth of emotion. Highly recommended.


title: The Pontoon Boat

text: It arrived as predicted.  Regarding the CD, it is so funny.  If you know anything about Garrison Keiler you will truly get a good laugh out of this story of the  pontoon boat.  We have shared it with friends and the reaction is the same.  It is well worth the money.

title: Post delivery

text: Well and carefully done


title: jazzy

text: great selection of non vocal jazz tunes


title: Get it for Dragon

text: This is a collection of mostly previously released tunes, some of which may have been remixed for this release.  I don't get the "Rock Collection" assignment to the pieces, perhaps it's the accompaniment like drums, electric bass or key board; e.g. Hula Girl is rock?  Since I have almost everything Jake has released and is available, there's not much that's new for me.  However, the version of Dragon is different from any of the many versions I have.  It is the best version to date, in my opinion.  It's worth the pricey purchase.


title: The worst Stephen Stills CD yet

text: Of all the albums/CD's that Stills has made, this is by far the worst!  What is he trying to say??  Too much horn section, and words are hard to follow with all the other noise in the background.  This is nothing like his previous albums.  Where is the Stills of the late 1960's when there was harmony, understandable words and songs with real feelings?  Find another Stills CD to buy, but forget this one.  You will be disappointed.


title: Great

text: Great album


title: How you should listen to this

text: I tried listening to this in the background while I did something else on my computer, thinking only of the resultant music, but it moves along quickly in the 40 minute length, and you need to pay attention to the 18 instruments being introduced, visualize how they work, how they sound, and how all the other aspects of an orchestra work together.  So the first time, play it when you are able to just sit and listen.


title: Caedmon LP Abridged version

text: Despite the listing description, this ia a 60 min. abridged reading.  Says it right on the cover, and it had to fit one standard LP.


title: Kohl's Cares fund raiser exclusive cd

text: You can buy this at Kohl's for $5 as a fund raiser program for 2013.  It contains previously released material.


title: Still Making Excellent Music

text: This album is excellent. Not quite as strong as the last few by NIN, but it returns to their older style of music. Several fans were put off by Year Zero and the change in sound that was on it. This album is the "apology" or return from that. Personally I liked Year Zero a lot, but this album is very accessible for his hard core fans and those that preferred the first few albums to what he's been putting out more recently. I listen to this album often and rarely skip a track and when I do it's not because it's a bad track, it's because I'm not in the mood for that song. Really this is some of the best stuff he's put out in years.


title: Great Bundle

text: I saw somewhere else that I could buy this live CD with only 5 songs on it. Most places do not sell it. I wanted some of Hunter Hayes' live music. This CD has 8 songs for the same price as the 5 plus it comes with a stunning t-shirt which by chance happens to have my favorite song on it. One of the best purchases in a bundle I have ever bought.


title: inxs live at wembley stadium 1991

text: This cd recaptures of the live performance of inxs' successful wembley stadium show back in the early 90s. Great remasturing of this cd.


title: Deserves a Best Picture OSCAR nomination!

text:
CRASH, CINDERELLA MAN and GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK are the only films of 2005 so far that I can personally nominate for best picture of the year.

Although I got bored with CONFESSIONS OF A DANGEROUS MIND, George Clooney may still be a shining new hope in a Hollywood system that lately can only put out 1970's remakes and movies that try to pass off every kid that ever starred on the WB or FOX tv network as adults (just watch the current remake of THE FOG and you'll see what I'm talking about!).  Clooney definately has an appreciation for history in black and white.  Remember his CBS tv version of FAIL SAFE?

It's a return to classic black and white filmaking, a return to a movie about GROWNUPS and a return to authentic historical storytelling.  As you watch this film and study the cinematography and camera angles, you can't help but feel remeniscent of watching the immortal classic, CITIZEN KANE.

Despite the fact that it's a story of CBS's Edward R. Murrow's crusade againt Joseph McCarthy, it's message to those who would seek to persecute and wage their own personal agenda at the expense of the American people is just as relevant today as it was in the 1950's.


title: Five Stars

text: Awesomely Amazing!


title: Weird yet Wonderful

text: Put simply, the Divine Comedy are out to entertain, and this song "I've been to a Marvellous Party" does just that! Whether you care or not about the wry comment on early twentieth century society (Noel Coward at his best), or simply that it just makes you laugh, this song isn't going to feature in an award ceremony, but it should be played at a couple of marvellous parties.


title: Great album!!!

text: This albums is amazing!!! It takes me back to the 90's. I love it!!!! You will too!!! Britney sounds amazing and the remix of BYE BYE BYE IS INCREABLE.


title: Wack samples from the great Ken Nordine

text: united future organization never disappoints. Wack samples from the great Ken Nordine. I love my baby, and my baby loves me.


title: Forget about Katy

text: Focus more on the people behind the songs, thus the name of the production team and the album. The Matrix. Katy's put to good use and she showed back in 2004 that she's got chops, but the musical gifts the writers share is what personally drew me to this album, and it's worth it. Although if you only want to try out one song, go for "Would You Care". I'll be damned if anyone can find me a more melodically wonderful pop song. My favourite song of 2009 unfortunately squandered the rest of the album's play-time on my iPod until recently. But the whole album is classy and should have been #1. I just wish Katy would put Would You Care on her next album. It's terrific.


title: Better than TPM but not as good as the classic trilogy!

text:
SOME MINOR SPOILERS!
While the classic Star Wars films (episodes IV-VI) felt exciting and full of energy, the SW prequels (epidodes I-III) are so far a huge letdown. What is missing in these prequels are humanity and humor, which has been replaced in the prequels by better special effects, but these effects completely take over the story, instead of enhancing them.
After The Phantom Menace, which is rightfully regarded not only as the WORST Star Wars film, and one of the most ridiculous science fiction films ever made, George Lucas followed up TPM with Attack of the Clones which has a better story, but one that still disappoints.
The "romantic" element in AOTC, between Anakin and Padme feels forced and right out of a soap opera. Not only that, but the teenage Anakin is more of a brat and feels nothing like the feared future Dark Lord of the Sith. I'm sorry, but no sane person could ever picture young Darth Vader running around grassy knowles along with his girlfriend. As for Padme, she is possibly one of the most boring written characters ever conceived, while everyone knows that she will be the mother to both Luke and Leia of the classic trilogy, Padme, has none of the qualities of her feisty and stubborn daughter. She is simply window dressing that will most likely be killed (possibly by Anakin/Darth Vader) in the final episode of the six-part saga, Episode III.
The ending felt like it was ripped out of Gladiator, with Jedis battling all sorts of droids and C-3PO making a complete fool out of himself!
Obi-Wan Kenobi is the only interesting character in both The Phantom Menace and in Attack of the Clones, and I liked his personal investigation into the assassination attempts on Padme's life along with his fight scenes with villian Jango Fett.
The real villian of the piece is Christopher Lee, who did a terrific job, with a lackluster script, as Count Dooku, a former Jedi knight who succumbs to the dark side. His lightsaber battle with Yoda is the highlight of the whole movie.
Overall, the first half of the film consists of a boring and cliched romance between Anakin and Padme, (Just to show who the parents of Luke and Leia are!) along with a few cool fight scenes, and ONE outer space battle in the entire film in an asteroid field! The last thirty minutes are non stop action that becomes repetitive very quickly!
All in all, Attack of the Clones is another overall disappointment in the SW "prequel" trilogy with some redeeming qualities....Here's HOPING that George Lucas can please young and old fans alike with the tragic final episode in the six-part Star Wars saga, (Sorry fans, Episode III is the final chapter) with Star Wars Episode III, due in theaters summer 2005!

text: These are powerful live songs from someone who is truly annointed.  You will not listen to these songs and be the same afterwards.


title: For the Family who enjoy Jason Upton

text: A departutre from the characteristic worship style and yet very original and captivating


title: Truly Amazing

text: Amazing Grace sang to truly convey grace and mercy in Christ Jesus.  Listen to this one and you will invoke grace in your spirit.


title: Second best Supertramp album

text: I loved Supertramp for two albums, Crime of the Century is their best but Crisis? What Crisis? is right up there.  I think the rest are garbage pop tunes that have nothing to offer.  If you like Supertramp and you haven't heard this ablum do yourself a favour and try it, this one is so much better than Even in the Quietest Momest or Breakfast.  I bought all of Supertramp's albums in my time but now only have Crime and Crisis in collection


title: A nice little nostalgic trip...

text: Had this box set when I was a kid and I used to play it a LOT.  Was over at a friend's house and discovered another Columbia Basic Library set for a different musical genre and always wanted to have it.  This set was worn out and probably gotten rid of years ago but always wanted all the box sets in this series and finally found this one for a decent price, too.  I now have them all.  One thing-on the set we used to have I think the Duke Ellington selection was different (earlier set-"Black and Tan Fantasy;"  this one-"In a Sentimental Mood."  Interesting...


title: Good, not great, American Rockabilly

text: This album sounds a lot like a cross between Stray Cats and the Reverend Horton Heat, both very talented and very successful modern Rockabilly.  However, although this sounds like a major compliment, the band sounds more like they're taking from those two bands instead of simply being inspired by both bands.  I will not say this is a bad album, but I also can not say its all that great either.  Its a good album by a good American Rockabilly band. Nothing more, nothing less. Don't expect TOO much and I'm sure you'll be satisfied.


title: Great Guitar Music.

text: This CD is fantastic and if you like guitar music, you will love this .  This is also a 2 disc album.  I was surprised to find this out and was very pleased.  I got twice the listening pleasure for the price of one.


title: A Great Introduction to learning Morse

text:
Well I finally decided to take on the challenge. I have been trying to learn the code for years but between life and having no connect to amateur radio; I found many reasons to put it off.  After making strides in [[ASIN:0609802453 conversational Japanese]], I decided to learn the code in 2014.

The American Radio Relay League's "Your Introduction to Morse code" is an introductoin of two CDs and booklet that teaches Morse code at five words per minute in addition to the unique language and protocols of amateur radio communications. Historically, the five words per minute comprehension was a standard in the Federal Communication Commission's test to move up in the amateur radio licensing ranks but since the publication of this CD set, the Morse code requirement ended in 2007. The instructional CD uses a rote memory approach of teaching the code via repetition and association that is reinforced with spelling out words and sentences.  According to the enclosed booklet, the code is sent using the Farnsworth technique sending the code at speed with extra space added between characters to slow the overall speed.

Those of you to have done the research into learning Morse have read the arguments about the Koch and Farnsworth methods of assimilating the code and from my personal experience; the only method that really works is consistency and perseverance, moreso when there is no requirement to learn the code.  Of all advice and opinion offered to as short cut to learn the code, the only consistent information is set aside ten to fifteen minutes every day and try not over think the dits and dahs.  I have been listening to the instructional CD for about a week and already half the alphabet comes naturally to me in addition to some punctuation and prosigns.

In short, the CDs the simplest and straightforward approach to learning Morse code.  From production to packaging, the simplicity is apparent nonetheless you will get result so long as you stick to it.  I would also recommend to the serious learner that they try to get their hands on a copy of [[ASIN:0872590356 Morse Code - The Essential Language]] written by another member the ARRL almost twenty years ago. Its an elaborate introduction the history and usage of Morse Code with more information about learning techniques and communication protocols.


title: Dark rather than light

text: A very spare production that shows less really can be more. It's a piece for the darker side of winter but that doesn't make it gloomy. It sits very well with Loreena McKennitt's winter offerings.<br />Lovely album.


title: Buyer beware

text: I wasn't aware that I had this in my vast Mike Oldfield collection so I jumped at an FM broadcast. The music is really good; the band is on fire and this is truly a fan's Must-Have. What got my attention was the curious fade-out/fade-in in TB Part 1. It was more a smack on the back of the head. I ran to my version which runs 18:41, as opposed to 17:33. The edit is the same. What's different is that the concert goes on past Punkadiddle. I am so angry with Amazon that they should have started to sell bootlegs - incomplete ones at that.


title: A brief review

text:
This CD came out first in, I believe, 2003.  Now it has been re-released, available at indie CD stores as well as at the band's web site.  If you enjoy their eponymous release, then you should really enjoy this.  It is a compilation of live shows spanning from 2001 - 2003.  Only three, or so, songs are on the studio album.  They have only been released on this CD (so far).

For a live CD, the sound quality is wonderful.  If you're a fan of this band, this is something you must have!  The music is as blissful as you would expect a Dresden Dolls CD to be.  If you've never heard of the band, they've been dubbed with the category "Punk Cabaret", and until someone comes up with a better phrase, that is probably the best way to describe them.  Good luck tracking down a copy of this wonderful music!


title: Unclear

text: I was looking for one of my favorite songs but there isn't any information here just a lot of spam so you simply cannot know if you are buying what you really want.


title: Why This Listing?

text: The classical comedy is very entertaining but this disc is available for one cent on the main listing so apparently someone created this page in the hope that you missed the other one and are willing to pay sixty dollars, a complete scam.


title: Worth Going To Jail For?

text: This is an illegal, unauthorized bootleg recording and pressing. It is illegal to sell, it is illegal to buy and if you do so you could be subject to five years in jail and/or a ten thousand dollar fine. That knock you will hear on your door two minutes after the postman gives it to you will be Federal Marshals. It isn't worth going to jail just to hear this second rate recording.


title: Plagiarist.

text: While overall this is a pleasant CD the "composer" is a blatant plagiarist and steals his melodies from popular love themes of the past including "Dedicated To The One I Love" which is reproduced practically verbatim, and "A Time For Love" from the 1960's "Romeo And Juliet" film.


title: Part Of A Set

text: First rate authentic Calypso Goombay music, there is no issue with that. Several of these songs were included on a full length album of the same name, and this record itself is the second record in a two disc EP set issued in 1956. Artwork was similar to the LP except for song titles.


title: Five Stars

text: Love the music in it. Very well mixed.


title: Excellent, a must own.

text: Anyone who loved this anime would love this album. The music is sensational; worth buying just for the music, even if one has never seen the anime. Includes four tracks. The Opening and Ending Themes, Pure Blue and Love Forever Off Vocals. As well as them being sung by the R-3 Girls [Atsuko Enomoto (Yuki), Maria Yamamoto (Nozomi) & Mayumi Iizuka (Akari)]. The opening if very upbeat, and the ending is harmonic, very beautiful.


title: Good service

text: Personal use I enjoy the music.


title: Great Collection

text: I'm producing a collection of songs of the '60s for my high school reunion later this year, and many of the 74  songs on this 3-CD set will be included. The set came well protected in a plastic tri-fold case and arrived earlier than expected.

title: Not really Christian Metal

text: I was very disappointed with this purchase. I have been a fan of Christian Metal bands like White Cross and some of the other bands represented by their members on this CD, so I was expecting this CD to be a lot harder.


title: Very funny CD

text: Years ago I saw this guy ( Rex Havens ) at a company holiday party, and He was hilarious. He gave everyone who attended this party a copy of this CD. I then loaned it to a friend who ended up losing it. I was so happy to find a replacement for it here on Amazon.I would recommend this CD "I'm a man and I'm sorry" to anyone.

title: Went back to this

text: Tried to replace a cassette of this, and bought  a different recording (by a group I like, and which had received great reviews) but after listening to the first chords of the strings I ran to order this tried-and -true recording. In contrast to the other group, the chords are emphatic and full, and to me, that's the way Brahms should be played.


title: nice selection

text:
I bought this CD for the Chrysanthemums quartet, and they do a very nice rendition of it.  The other pieces are well played, as well.  At first I panicked because a couple of track numbers were switched (for the Gershwin and Puccini), but all quartets are indeed on this CD!

Update: for a truly moving performance of Puccini's Crisantemi, I recommend the recording by Quartetto di Roma.

title: Great Collection of Great Songs

text:
Haruomi Hosono is one of the most important Japanese artist of the lat 40 years, and he is an amazing songwriter.  If you are not already aware, he has had input into music by many of the most popular and influential Japanese artist.  He was part of the celebrated Happy End, Tin Pan Alley, and Yellow Magic Orchestra.  He has worked with Yumi Matsutoya, Miharu Koshi, and Ryuichi Sakamoto, just to name a few.  In addition, he has written songs for even more artist, which is the focus of this box set.  This is a fairly comprehensive collection of songs Mr. Hosono has written for other artist (not including his own bands or anything he sang himself).  Though they could not include every song he wrote, they have included most of them, and most of the more popular songs he wrote for other artist between 1970 and 2008.  Also, this box set includes a book that list EVERY song he has ever written whether for his solo albums, his flagship bands (listed earlier) or for other artist.  He's a pretty incredible songwriter, and if you love good songwriting, Japanese music, or pop music of any type, you will love this box set.

Some highlights include The theme to Nausicaa and the Valley of the Wind, 4 songs by Sandii & The Sunsetz including "Sticky Music," several songs recorded by Seiko Matsuda, some fantastic City Pop/New Music from the 1970s, and Some great 80s J-Pop.

I highly recommend this box set.  These are great songs, but it's also a lesson in Japanese music history.  All 6 disc have great sound quality and the packaging is lovely.


title: Twin Best

text: Twin Best is 2 CDs, Volume 1 & 2; most of his popular songs and songs popular in Japan - for listening, dancing; really great singing voice - not high or nasal-sounding.


title: Warped sound

text: The sound quality of the cassette was very poor. It is warped sounding and barely listenable.


title: He loved it and we received it so fast

text: Gift for my son.  He loved it and we received it so fast.  Awesome.  Best service ever


title: Favorite artist

text: Don  Moen’s  songs are so meaningful and touch’s your heart!

title: THE Recording of Bach's B minor Mass for the Ages

text: Of all the recordings of the B minor Mass which I own, this 1950 set by Hermann Scherchen is my favorite.  The "historically informed performances" are all too slick and leave me cold.  The only others that approach this recording are Scherchen's 1959 effort (marred by some bloopers by the bass soloist), and those of Klemperer, Richter, and Rilling.  This performance is devout and captures the ethos of Bach's "last will and testament" (i.e., the B minor Mass, the Art of Fugue, and A Musical Offering) as he prepared to leave this world and meet his Lord and Savior in Heaven.  Tahra Records of France had this recording in print a few years ago, but, sadly, it is now only available as a Japanese import.  I look forward to a complete reissuing of all of Scherchen's Bach recordings, much as EMI/Warner has done for Otto Klemperer.  Since Hermann Scherchen (1892-1966) passed away 50 years ago this year, 2016 would seem to be a good time<br />to remaster and reissue all of his Bach recordings.


title: The greatest album by Eddie Rabbit!!!!

text: This is my very favorite album of all time by Eddie Rabbit...  I had at one time and it got destroyed and was sooo excited to find this album again...  The album was in perfect condition and even had the inside sleeve...  Every song on this album is a winner!!!!

title: ROD STEWART IS THE BEST WITH NO ORCHESTRA AND SING MELLOW

text: I HAVE ROD STEWART CDS HE MADE AFTER HIS CANCER SURGERY AND VOICE VERY MELLOW AND SONGS LOVING IPLAY THEM ALL THE TIME BUT NOW HE IS SCREAMING HIS SONGS AND ORCHESTRA DOMINATING TOO LOUD!!!!  I SING TOO AND HARMONIZED WITH HIS OLD SONGS SINCE HIS SURGERY>>>SHOULD NOT HAVE ABIG ORCHESTRA WITH HIM>  SORRY BUT THAT IS HOW I FEEL AND WILL CONTINUE PLAYING hiS CDS THAT I LOVE


title: Nice Package, great extra tracks

text: Very Nice package plus 18 bonus tracks…many good demo versions of the album songs, done more simply on guitar plus one or two instruments…the best of the "deluxe" editions in terms of enjoyability….

title: Not as expected

text: My family was disappointed in this work. Only One song we liked.  Too bad.  IOO this new group not as good as previous/original singers.


title: Know and loved...one if the best arlund

text: Great gospel sound.  This is the Dynamic Praise group which imo is the best hands down.  Favorite songs are the Faith in Me, Faith, Dynamic Praise, and the ever popular com o God Will and Jesus is a Rock.  Just Great.  Another copy I wanted long time to get and a little costly but worth it.  Reproduced under album name Testifybut this is the best combination songs from their work and was recorded live.


title: Simply wonderful.

text: Pastor Richards Sr.  was a great man of God.  His reading Biblical passages is just wonderful.  I listen often.  His voice is soothing and uplifting.  You will be blessed.

title: Amazing Singer + Amazing Service

text:
I bought this as a gift for one of my teachers, as they were from Russia. I enjoy listening to Vera's songs, very talented artist. The arrival date actually was earlier than they anticipated (supposed to be November 28th, arrived around the 15th).

A bonus, the sellers included a Russian magazine with the purchase (un-advertized). I gave that to my teacher as well.
5/5 Overall.


title: Awesome CD

text: Wonderful CD. Great for quiet times around the house or for use in personal devotions. A must have for your collection.


title: Perfect

text: Perfect, works great


I love it!  The movie itself is hilarious, but the soundtrack sounds like it is from a serious movie and it all works.  Highest recommendation; beautiful soundtrack!  The music could have been in any vampire movie, serious or comedy.

text: On time delivery. Love Ruben's voice. Thought he would sing as smooth as Luther. He didn't.


title: Good

title: Their most accomplished album

text: Their early work was a little too 'new-wave' for my taste, but when 'Sports' came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, both commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this, 'Fore', their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is 'Hip to Be Square', a song so catchy most people probably don't listen to the lyrics, but they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.


title: Highly recommend

text: This is an excellent CD--very relaxing--the other day I played it for background dinner music and my guests noticed it and wanted to know what is was called and asked how to buy it---so glad I purchased this CD!

text: I just bought it for Possum Kingdom


title: Censored!

text: I ordered this CD and was shocked to find that the audio AND lyric sheet inside had the "questionable" lyrics censored out. I give B.E. a 5 Star rating for the music but I give the seller of this censored CD a ZERO for first, censoring, and second, mis-representing their product. Amazon refund, here I come!


title: Disappointed in CD but not with seller

text: CD arrived promptly and properly packaged. Good price and as advertised. Happy with the seller.  The CD is another story.... Love this group but disappointed in this CD


I have been playing this in my car for weeks now.  They have a unique lead singer and a bring a fresh worship experience. I was told the band is no longer together so this CD is a rare find of excellent music. Like!


title: Wonderful!

text: Wonderful!


title: Great for learning language with your kids.

text: Love the CD so we can sing along in the car!


title: Amazing

text: Having just finished a Biology class, learning the "central dogma" of DNA->mRNA->Protein, I found this book to be an awesome read.  It explains the central theorems of biology in very easily understood terms, and then enlightens the reader with the findings of the most recent research which brings quantum physics into the world of Biology.  This provides us with a new paradigm upon which we can look at the world, our society, and our roles as individuals. Everyone should read this book! Our Biology textbooks need updating!!

title: Great fun!  What's up with Anakin?

text:
Although I was not as anxious to see this movie as I was Episode I, I found it to be one of the most satisfying theater experiences this year.  There simply is no better an entity for visual extravagance than ILM.  The action is marvelous, and the pay-offs for Star Wars fans are plenty.  As with the last movie, I particularly enjoyed McGregor and Portman.  To praise Yoda would be stating the obvious, he stole the show.
Sadly, I had one major disappoinment:  the portrayal of Anakin Skywalker (a complaint I submit to both actor and director.)  I base my opinion on my perception of the Anakin character that started with "Episode VI: Return of the Jedi".  The redemption of Darth Vader lead me to believe that Anakin was once a wise and noble Jedi, whose connection with the force went beyond a technical mastery of it.  We assume that the qualities of compassion and nobility, essential to the Jedi, stirred within the Sith Lord as he confronts his son in front of the Emperor, and that in the end the Light Side prevails.
I saw little of those qualities in the young Anakin.  His raw power is obvious, and his turbulent psyche is appropriate... both things are indeed central to thew Anakin character.  However, before Anakin falls into darkness, I would like to see him come into his rights as a true Jedi.  Then, when he submits to the Dark Side, it will be all the more tragedy.
His portrayal in this movie made him seem too disconnected with the Jedi role.  So much so that when he protests the idea of running off to save Obi-Wan in favor of obeying the council, it seems conradictory to the character that Lucas and Christensen had built up until then.  Indeed, when Amidala pointed out that he had already disobeyed the concil's directive when he secretly stole away to take care of his own business on Tatiooine, I found myself asking the same question.  His love for Amildala seemed obsessive and selfish.  I found myself wishing that Amidala would come to her senses and dump him for Obi-Wan.
Ultimately my complaint is this:  I want to admire and respect Anakin before I fear and loath him as Darth Vader.  Episode II doesn't give me much opporunity to do that.  I want more good in him to offset the turbulence, which would, I believe, create a  more substantial conflict.
My apologies to Anakin/Christensen fans.  If you enjoyed him, then more power to you.  I just hope I get to like the character more in III than in I or II.  Fortunately for me, this one element could not ruin the movie.


title: Very poor

text: I cannot say nice or positive things about my experience.


title: Relaxing for My Baby

text: This is good background for soothing a restless and irritable infant.  I expect it to be useful as he passes his first birthday.


title: Great Harmony!

text:
I have always been in awe of Darlene Love's talent, and her vocal ability shines in this compilation.  Not many of the songs were familiar to me, but I find that I listen to this CD whenever I'm driving in my car.  Groups like the Blossoms were the unsung heroes in the 1960's music scene, and without the soulful backups to the mainstream singers, I fear the songs would not have had their airplay.  I remember watching these ladies on TV and wondering why their coversongs, especiaLLY "Needle in a Haystack" weren't put out for sale.

You can't go wrong with these singers!


title: Great

text: Good music


title: This is how our history must be taught!

text:
I bought this CD not knowing quite what to expect.  As it turns out, it is far better than anything I could have imagined. Although I recognized some of the names on the track listing, it was the way that the program wove together well-known "storytellers" with lesser known artists and tracks to tell a story that is not only profound but deeply effecting for me.

The arrangement of the audio clips takes you on an illuminating voyage across the arc of history.  Beginning with the longing for the majesty and beauty of a people conveyed with the poem "Africa II - He's Sweet I Know" by Nikki Giovanni, telling the story of her visit to Cape Coast Castle in Ghana.  The O'Jay's "Ship Ahoy" follows telling of the journey through the middle passage and arrival into bondage.  The listener is then transported through time with speeches by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., President Lyndon Johnson, and Rev. Jesse Jackson, interspersed with songs by, among others, Gil Scott-Heron.  Voices includes the entire "I Have a Dream" speech.  It also gifts the listener with Gladys Knight's version of "Precious Lord." That alone is worth the price of this CD! Finally, Barack Obama's November 4, 2008 election victory speech in Chicago closes the journey of Voices.

As a bonus, the liner notes provide some historical background, and recognize and honor people with whom I was not as familiar, like Charles Hamilton Houston, Irene Morgan, Vernon Johns, Ida B. Wells, and Benjamin Curtis.

Voices is how our history must be taught!  If you are an educator, a history buff or a parent you must have this for your audio library.  The selection and arrangement of the tracks, together with the liner notes make it so for anyone interested not only in African-American history, but American history.  It is a great Christmas or Kwanzaa gift.  I gave mine away as a Kwanzaa gift so will have to order another.  BTW, although I tend to think it's irrelevant, I am not African-American.


title: Price to high

title: A Jimi Hendrix Live Album

text:
When I bought this CD, I didn't know what tracks were on it. So I'm listing the tracks. This is a live album, but don't know if it's recorded at once, since it stops between tracks.

CD1
1 Foxey Lady 4:50
2 I Don't Live Today 5:29
3 Red House 10:49
4 Spanish Castle Magic 11:26
5 Star-Spangled Banner 2:23
6 The Wind Cries Mary 3:41
7 Burning Of The Midnight Lamp 3:48
8 Fire 2:47

CD2
1 Purple Haze 5:51
2 Voodoo Child (A Slight Return) 9:15
3 Sunshine Of Your Love 4:14
4 Voodoo Child (Reprise) 3:23
5 Catfish Blues 7:43
6 Killing Floor 5:07
7 Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window 3:02
8 Hey Joe 6:12

The CD has no booklet, so there's no information about when or where this live album was recorded. I'm not a die-hard Hendrix fan so I wouldn't know if these were previously released or not, by just listening to them. The quality of the music does sound a little bit unusual, like if I was listening to a cassette that's been played too much, not your usual CD clarity. But maybe this is common of live recordings, I don't know, or if the music is bootleg or whatever. Or maybe it's my CD player's fault. But I bought this CD at 1 cent price, so overall I'm pleased with this purchase because Jimi Hendrix is a good artist.


title: Just Not The Same As Debut

text: I bought this CD because Broomtree's first CD was fun to listen to, and I hoped for more the same. But I was disappointed. They seem to have a different sound here. But if you're not familiar with there first album, and this is your first taste, it is okay album. It is not too hard, not too light.


title: Exactly what I ordered

text: Ir was on time and it was exactly what I ordered.  No problems with the cd at all.

title: Very good sound

text: Great sound


title: Awesome stuff!

text: Not a bad song in the entire double album! This is the best country album since Chris Stapleton's Traveller.

text: This is a Christmas gift for my grandson who is a huge fan!  Since I saw part of the taping in Milwaukee I have absolutely no reservations about recommending this cd.,


title: Amazing artist.  Amazing show!

text: I was lucky enough to actually attend her concert in Los Angeles, so am very happy to relive the music with this collection.  I actually prefer the live versions of Fever Ray songs to the original recordings.  There is so much joy and freedom expressed through the medium.  Anyways great!  Have a listen and enjoy!


title: Good album

text:
If you're looking for an album that's actually an album and not a collection of singles, this is it. Kreva's instrumentation is excellent and provide an experience that's a good shot of flavor for those tired of the typical American sound.

道なき道 - A nice introduction to the album. Sets the mood in a somewhat immersive manner that feels like it's moving, like a car on an urban highway at night.

かも - It doesn't get stuck in my head, but I always find myself gravitating to this song somehow.

たられば feat SONOMI - The bass line and synth textures are great on this one. SONOMI lends her voice well to this track. She appears as a texture more often, but her line in the chorus is full of emotion and well executed.

最終回 - The arpeggios (I think that's what you'd call them) that loop throughout the track really set this track in the background of Kreva's rap. The chorus textures send you to a whole other world in the best way possible.

エレクトロ・アース・トラックス - Serving as a break in the middle of the album, the slow tempo and somewhat drab vocals leave me generally uninterested in this one. It does begin to pickup later in the song, but isn't too memorable.

OASYS - The title track of the album, it does sound like an oasis. This is the kind of track you have to close your eyes to and absorb. Half way through the song it begins to get a bit more intense and deeper and the synth melody somehow is capable of conveying a large amount of emotion.

CHANGING SAME - A really interesting track. Tame, but interesting.

Reprise～道なき道～ - Provides closure for the album. Sounds more like space than night.

Import fees are very high for this album, and are even higher at Amazon.jp (¥1450 + ¥1700 for US shipping and ¥300 for handling). I really suggest downloading a digital copy from iTunes for ¥1200 or finding a used copy with a seller that'll ship international (¥800 appx.).


title: Complet fraud!!

text: This piece of garbage is a recording from an old and I do mean old vinyl record. It's got all the bells and whistles like the popping, hissing and scratching sounds of needle touching wax. I really don't even believe it's Mancini's band playing, sounds like some cheap cover version. Don't want my money back, I smashed this thing so it doesn't somehow get back into circulation again. But I should have read the reviews first but I got excited when I found this at such a cheap price, now I know why. READ ALL THE REVIEWS FIRST!!!


title: TOTALLY SWINGS!

text:
This is a fantastic compilation of swing, and swing it does! You can't help but dance. Lots of horns, percussion and beautiful voices.

From the record cover (excerpt):

This collection of vintage recordings, drawn from RCA Victor archives, contains much from the last 3 decades that is meaningful in the history of American dance, jazz and popular music. This is a large statement, particularly so when it has reference to the contents of one long-play record. Yet the material has been so carefully chosen and the artists represent such a glittering array that there is no danger of overstatement.

Much of the material - it will be seen from a glance at the titles - derives from the Swing era of the late 1930's and early 1940's. These were the great years of the band business, when large instrumental combinations captured the public favor. The era of the big band was significant not only as a social manifestation; it was also significant that it played a vital role in the development of jazz. Benny Goodman, Tony Dorsey, Glenn Miller and others represented on this disc played their part in developing music that was both danceable and jazz oriented.

Artists: Tommy Dorsey, Rosemary Clooney and Perez Prado, Artie Shaw and his Gramercy Five, Larry Clinton, Louis Armstrong, Charlie Barnet, Helen O'Connell, Bunny Berigan, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Guy Lombardo, Glenn Miller.


As expected, BTS DVD are the best in quality and content. Love it so much.

text: This group has an amazing sound, and the rhythm is very addictive.  To me they will always be in the present.


title: Five Stars

text: LOVE it!!!


title: Old classic album!

text: CD was in prefect condition, thanks!


title: Loved the vinyl...loving the cd

text: This was an instant classic when it was released and it's only gotten better with age! "Thank you so very much."


title: They'll love you if you do

text: Buy this now...give it to all your friends. They'll love you if you do.


title: My husband is "glad all over"!!!!

text: My husband watched something on TV about the DC5 and he got all excited.  So, I figured I'd surprise him with this CD.  On Christmas morning he was so surprised and excited that he tossed my Perry Como Christmas CD and put the DC5 CD on.  He listened to it most of Christmas day.  I was so happy to see him so happy.  Thank you!


title: Superlative

text: Superlative! Exactly as I remember it when seen under the blue and yellow tent in Atlanta years ago.


title: Great Music 🎶

text: Great old music….better than anything new today. Highly recommended.


title: High quality and fast shipping,

text: Great record quality, great addition to the juke box


title: like

text: enjoy it


title: Perfect!

text: I was very excited to receive this album.  It's been hard to find in local stores so Amazon came to the rescue.  Perfect audio.  No skips, no scratches, just clean, beautiful vinyl.


title: "Digitally transferred"?! what a lousy job!

text: I was looking forward to listening to this disc. It is a poorer quality than a 78 record. This is amateurish work at its best. If you want to listen to this phenomenon, try Little Jimmy Scott - Great Scott! - a 2 CD case. Much better quality. Would not buy this again!


title: Five Stars

text: I love this tape!!


title: Five Stars

text: All the Tull you need and it sounds great to boot!


title: Five Stars

text: Absolute terrific live set by The Ash!  Great performance and great sound!


title: Five Stars

text: A TD classic indeed!


title: Good live CD

text: Good early Tull played live.  Early Tull is best.  Anything after Thick As A Brick is only so so.


title: Not essential

text: Nice sampling of Caravan but not essential You really have to be familiar with their music to appreciate this CD.  I would pass on this and just wear out playing In The  Land Of Grey And Pink.  By far their best album!


title: Good stuff!

text: Great music played live in concert.


title: Good stuff

text: Nice collection of JMJ compositions


title: Good price. Great condition.

text: The 45 arrived quickly and in good packaging, record clean and in good condition. Put it immediately on my turntable and was transported back to the '60s. Very happy with my purchase.


title: Super 2 disc set!

text: Super talented kpop group; has some language in some of the songs if that bothers you but the songs have good messages and u can find the English lyrics on YouTube. BTS is the most popular boy band in the world right now.


title: Awesome

text: It was good no problem

title: Brilliant song-writer Mark Linkous finally left this mortal coil by ...

text: In the late '80's/early '90's while MTV and the music video were peaking, it  helped your band's cause if you had some gimmick or style of physical presence.  It also helped if your primary songwriter wasn't a tormented soul constantly on the wrong side of a struggle with substance abuse. The Dancing Hoods had neither. And then there's the whole "break-up soon after the album's release" thing ...it never had a chance to be heard.  Brilliant song-writer Mark Linkous finally left this mortal coil by his own hand in 2010 leaving a wake of artistic and critical acclaim from the likes of Tom Waits, Radiohead, and Danger Mouse. This era's power-pop is typically limited in it's range, but Linkous and the Dancing Hoods stretch the dimensions of the genre to the edge just before it becomes something else.  Every song had hit potential, but a big part of me is glad it never happened, because as an album, this one is singular...from beginning to end.  Don't confuse mass appeal with artistic genius. This gem simply slipped through the cracks;  go ahead and pick it up, dust it off, and dig it.


title: Smooth listening soundtrack remix

text: This remix album of what was already a great soundtrack is a particularly clever set that's interspersed with snippets of a fictional future radio DJ giving a broadcast. Combined with the spacy-sounding tracks of the remixed Yoko Kanno masterpiece music, and it can make for a great listening experience. It'll make a night drive down the freeway evoke fantasies of zipping along starlanes depicted in the show. Very cool album and worth picking up.


title: B-52's never grow old, great hits on this cd

text: This cd took me way back to a place long forgotten, thanks!<br />Great collection of well known hits on this cd


title: Five Stars

text: Highly Recommended for Nat "King" Cole fans and todays hip crowds!  Would LOVE to see a Volume II !!


title: BEEPBEEPLOVE !

text: Overall this album is really great. The thing is you have probably heard this band before on TV but didn't know it. The song 'Fuzzy' is featured on a downy commercial in the mid 2000's. This album takes on a mix of Pop, dance and rock&roll to give an etheral feel. The standouts on the album BEEP BEEP LOVE , Fuzzy , 1983, Tomato Soup & Last Song all of which is anchored in the futuristic songs like Electric Pocket Radio & Our Millionth Customer. Both of these songs are fun, quirky, electric house jives weaving into the other more conceptual songs like Anthem and Don't Say To Me Its Over. For a great album for a car trip or to ramp up the weekend get this album, you will be delighted!!


title: Robin Trower

text: Love this lip, takes me back to my youth. In very reasonable shape.


title: Tarney Spenser CD

text: Was on the fence about spending the thirty dollars but this cd brings back a lot of memories


title: great release

text: It was nice to see Hikasa break away from her role as Mio Akiyama and I think it was a really quality first release for her.  Love the cd, the songs are great.


title: A beautiful composition of live radio comedy and rock music of the early 2000’s.

text: I bought this the first day it came out.  I don’t have it anymore because my ex boyfriend threw all my cds out after I called him a whiny Spoiled little boy loser and broke up with him.  I honestly think this is the greatest radio station CD of all time.  Classics like Boobies (baby one more time) And the bit on the little boy finding the banana, will forever be hilariously in my memory.  Now that WAAF is no longer on 107.3FM.... I’m going to be sad AF.


title: Perfect condition

text: The album was in even better condition than it looked in the pictures.


title: Easy R & B music

text: I bought the first CD only and did not realize it so it may be okay with both. Easy R & B music.


title: Five Stars

text: Wonderful CD


title: read

text: Good quality and liked the fact that it was available.  I liked the fast delivery.


title: A Crap Shoot

text:
One really takes a chance when ordering something with no detailed description. This CD is labeled No Place to Hide. It comes with only the Album version of the song. The other 2 songs are remixes of Shoots and Ladders, which are pretty good. I do recommend this CD for the KoRn afficionado.

1. No Place to Hide - Album Version
2. Shoots and Ladders - Dust Brothers Industrial Mix
3. Shoots and Ladders - Dust Brothers Hip Hop Mix


title: Great remixes!

text:
This CD contains some really good remixes. The only bad things I see are the fact that the CD shows up on the screen as All Mixed Up. Had me worried, until it started playing the correct song. The other bad thing is that not all of the songs are listed for this CD on this page. They are:

1. Album Version
2. Clark World Mix
3. Sowing the Beasts Mix
4. Beats in Peace Mix
5. Scary Birds Mix


title: Disappointing

text: Record is scratched and the audio has clearly suffered from repeated play. I’m a bit disappointed in this purchase.


title: Five Stars

title: Not Ice Cream ... Everyday ...

text:
I'm a huge fan of Amel Larrieux - ever since she was with Groove Theory. She comes across as humble, although her lyrics show a depth and insight that few currently popular singers manage to attain. She is never showy vocally, although the notes she hits in the classic "For Real" rival Christina Aguilera. And she doesn't seem obsessed with fame. She is true singer/songwriter. Yet, for some reason, "Ice Cream Everyday" left me feeling a bit empty. While there are a few shining moments - title track included - for the most part the whole affair seems a bit lackluster. On "Bravebird," my favorite Amel CD, I felt like we took a spiritual journey. On this one, I waited ... and I waited ...

To be fair, Amel on her worst day is better than half the artist out there on their best. Nevertheless this ice cream isn't meant to be eaten everyday ...


title: One of her best!

text:
Often time older artists get second rate material. So while I was excited to hear that Vesta had a new album coming out, I wasn't sure how good the material would be. Hence, I was more than pleasantly surprised to hear such a strong album. Vesta's vocals are in full effect on the album. That was to be expected. But the writing and the songs showcase her talent extremely well. The songs feel current without chasing any particular trend.

There are several choice cuts including the humorous "Silly," the throwback "All You Girls," and the sensuous "5 Ways." This is, by far, her best album since "Everything-n-More." Here's to hoping it racks up a few sales ...


title: Lost My Original

text: A rare combination and explanation of the theological aspect of blues music. Dr. Lowry narrates and demonstrates the connection by applying a blues style to some favorite hymns.


title: The black sabbath cd is amazing. I was never fortunate enough to see them ...

text: The black  sabbath  cd is amazing.  I was never fortunate enough  to  see them in concert during this to receive it.  Thank you very  much .  And to have come all the way from Russia is unbelievable .  Thank  you  again .


title: Wonderful discovery

text: A hearty amen to the previous reviewer - Igor Oistrakh's Brahms Concerto is a monument for the ages.  My introduction to it was bumpy - My sister lent me her LP of this performance, asking if I might transfer it to CDR for her.  My first reaction was, why not a better one?  But I gave it a spin, and it slapped me silly.  Presumably Igor has long since come to terms with his father's shadow, but the rest of us need to get up to speed.  I too now hold this recording up high as my favorite version of the piece.


title: Proceed with caution.

text: If you're a hardcore fan, Pat and the Smithereens are in good form on this show. But the audio quality is really poor. I hadn't ever seen this show circulate in the trading community, so I was anxious to hear it and hoped that it would be pretty good quality. Unfortunately, that's not the case, but it's still a cool snapshot from the period. Just be very aware that the sound quality will not be that of a standard commercial live release. It's clearly taken from a tape of a tape of a tape of a tape, many generations removed.


title: Was at this San Francisco show! Great memories

text: The Mo’fessionals were first to combine funk, jazz, rap with their 13 member band! Great SF Bay Area shows. Won Best Unsigned Band West of Rockies title. Huge fan base. They only made 2 CDs. They influenced later groups.

title: Good product

text: Brought it has a gift and the person loved it


title: Good, clean recording

text: I've enjoyed listening to this album.  Most of us are probably familiar with some of the works (are you old enough to remember when the definition of a highbrow was to be able to listen to the William Tell Overture and NOT think of the Lone Ranger?) -- William Tell, The Barber of Seville, etc. I really wanted a complete collection of Rossini's overtures so I could listen to the ones with which I was unfamiliar -- now I'm able to do so for a fraction of the price of the "US" version.


title: Great CD

text: Love all songs


title: Obscure Evocative Album

text:
I bought this on vinyl when it came out in the eaerly 80's when I was visiting the christian music stores every payday, skipping past all the Amy Grant , Archers and Imperials new releases, I discovered this gem and wore out the grooves of this LP in my bachelor pad in Tulsa,OK.
Little did I know some of my favorite bands of the era played on this record (the 77's).
Some of the stuff that came from Exit records could hold up today.Piercing evangelical christian music that was not preaching to the choir, they were introspective and reaching out to the lost.
I miss that stuff.. todays christian music is a little too modern country + churchy for my taste.
We need to get the edge back, the art,the human-ness of being a christian in a dark broken world.

I sold all my vinyl afew years back only to start searching for the gems again.
I bought Steve scott again, this time on CD, and Darrel mansfield-higher power and Degarmo and keys live double Lp.
Great stuff - Go find the early 80's christian music... See what I mean

title: Gabby Pahinui album

There were two problems with this purchase
1. I thought I had ordered a CD, but it came as a cassette
2. The songs on the cassette weren't the same as those on the cover. Someone had put the wrong cassette in the jewel box.
When I entered the selections into ITunes the titles came up as track 1, 2, 3, etc., so I don't really know what I'm listening to, even though I'm enjoying it.


title: Awesome Soundtrack but it's not Roger Miller singing the songs

text: It's a great record, but it's the children narrating it, not Roger Miller. It is a great record for kids!

text: THEY SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES I HAVE THEIR ALBUMS IN VINYL - CASSETTE AND STARTING CD'S


title: joancrawford

text: Not a good CD.  Two musical numbers (that I can identify) are mis-labeled:  1) "I'm Just Wild About Harry"  isn't.  Don't know what it is.  2) "Dream Rag" isn't.  It's "Stars & Stripes Forever" bt John Phillip Sousa.  The entire album seems thrown together with no regard for what decades the numbers were recorded in and is of poor sound quality.  Disappointing...Eubie deserves better.


title: A wonderful mood soothing list of familiar and not so familiar ...

text: A wonderful mood soothing list of familiar and not so familiar tunes.  Don's talent for playing the alto sax, puts the lyrics in the notes.  Don is a professional and has seasoned musical talent, it is obvious when listening to the cd.  He has accomplished musicians accompanying him and the cd professionally mastered.  I highly recommend it!

title: Prog rock it ain't, but it's really good.

text:
I hate to admit that I enjoyed this album.  The idea of one of my favorite prog rockers singing a bunch of pop ditties made me roll my eyes.  And the corny video that Jon did for "Hold on to Love" almost made me lose my coffee.

But "pop" is short for "popular," and that's what this album deserved to be.  They may be pop ditties, but they are all good.  Anderson had a hand in writing all of them.

And you aging prog fans who make it through the first ten tracks are in for a treat with the eleventh, "Hurry Home."  It has a sound and feel that is one part "Olias of Sunhillow," one part "Jon and Vangelis," and one part something else entirely.


title: Great CD

text: CD is clean and plays great!  The CD was spotless inside and out.  I would oder again for this vendor


title: Whew

text: This collection has the best of all the so-called elevator music most of us remember only better. The collection is easy to listen to and a good value.


title: photosnowy

text: This collection of cd's have many favorite songs preformed by Kenny but the song missing was "Through the years" which just happens to be the title of the collection.  For the price, it's still a good value.


title: photosnowy

text: The music on the cd's were easy to listen to and a very good value.  Most all the songs are the ones you tend to remember.


title: Warm Excellence

text: I was not prepared for what I heard upon my first listen to this album.  The wonderful selection of songs showcase Ms. Robert's beautiful singing voice.  She captures the emotional essence of each tune and shares it flawlessly with the listener.  The recording is technically excellent, and the simple orchestration puts the singer and the song at the forefront. Highly, highly recommended for the lover of songs sung well!


title: Five Stars

text: Loved it


title: Love

text: Love his music


title: Memories revived

text: I first heard Hall and MacGregor in the mid-1960's on BBC radio (I was living in Glasgow at the time); upon returning to the US, I was delighted to find a couple of LP's of their work. Finding this CD was a welcome chance to renew old acquaintance. The songs are mostly traditional, with a smattering of music hall spirit, and are mostly presented straight (this was before folk-rock) but with far more polish than field recordings of the time. It is fun now to compare, say, their version of "Hares on the Mountain" with the version recorded by Steeleye Span -- and not to the detriment of either!


title: This was returned.

text: I made a mistake when I ordered this and it was vinyl and not what I had thought it was when ordering.  My fault.  It was a very easy exchange.  Thanks so much.


title: very good album but not 90 dollars good!

text: I got this elsewhere, I do not know why they charge so much here....almost 100 bucks for a CD and 200 bucks for a used album! It is good but check elsewhere. Greedy people like this dont research that this is actually more plentiful of an album than to charge this much for it. But if I had to I might even buy it for the price here. Very professional group...........pros with their instruments!


title: I am 65 in december and I will say this is good music

text: My son sent me some good ol boy rapping on youtube and it was good, funny and to the point. I didn't close it out when it was done playing that video and it went on to the next song which was Devilskin doing Never See the Light. That was some video and if you are looking at getting some of their music then see that video at least. This is almost a family affair; on this the drummer I believe is 16 years old and was 13 when he started with the band. It might help that his dad, Paul Martin started the group and does much to keep it rolling smoothly (his son Nic is the drummer). The vocalist, Jenny Skulander is Pauls sister in law which makes the drummer her nephew. The lone member family wise is called simply "nail". I got the package including the video concert at the Power Station in Aucklund New Zealand. Good from start to finish......complete with drum solo by young Nic. They interract with the audience well and the audience loves them. Most songs are from "We Rise" album so the CD will essentially be the "We Rise" album. I highly recommend as Jenny has some of the most powerful lungs I have heard on a female singer and I think she is flawless. The three members of the main band are no slouches either. Read up on these guys in wikipedia. I ordered mine from New Zealand new............AND I am damn glad I did! Get this if you like metal music done well, I mean you can understand what they are singing...........I think that to be a very high plus. Recommend.


title: Makes me happy everytime I play it.

text: Was one of the "inherited" cd's by my deceased brother Shane . I play any of his cd's just for memory at least and this one further validates that he knew his music. This is a fine blues album and this lineup is probably the best of early Mac. Highly recommended


title: Pure nostalgia!

text: Its pure nostalgia. I bought this record and Radio Dinner in 1974. I actually gave this one away back in 1982 because I didnt think it that great. It does have its moments and is pure nostalgia as I couldnt stand not having it anymore. I got both the CD and a very good condition record. Radio Dinner is hilarious but you cannot have one without the other.


title: Four Stars

title: REALLY great LP (CD).  One of the best Drummers too.

text: About every song on this recording is great.  One of my favorite LPs from the great 1970s.  I bought the CD a year ago and had looked for it for at least 5 years on CD.


title: Release the 2nd Sweathog LP on CD

text: This is a decent LP (CD), but I really like their 2nd LP.  Wish it was on CD! I have worn out my very old LP.

I love this album, especially because my father John GRYCHAK, has a recording on this record. It's a great rememberance to a great music loving man. His main love was the violin, but could play many others, like Bandura, he even made his own cymbaly, very talented man, I wish I paid him more attention when I was growing up. He died in 1952, (car accident), what a shame, I still miss him terribly. I am his son, John GRYCHAK, JR. and yes, I do play music on the very same  violin that my Dad used to play.

text: The CD book and cards were great the Astro button they threw in didn’t have a pin and it had separated from the metal.  But it came quickly and was exactly what I had ordered. I would order from them again and I appreciate their effort with the Astro button as well.

title: cracked

text: cd's awesome but case arrived cracked in half


title: Caucasian Delta AND Appalachian Blues?

text:
This is real American Music History A "must hear" for any modern music student. My only slightly negative comment has to do with the lack of restoration to the recordings themselves. In the past purists have resisted restoration of the original, age scarred recordings. And YES, the restorations of years ago were inferior. But the modern techniques are so improved the nothing of the original sound is lost. Just the obnoxious pops. scratches and sand hiss. Please, somebody restore these!

BUT, even now, in this condition, LISTEN to this and hear the pre-birth of Rock-A-Billy!


title: Great Memories

text: It's VINYL, and it's from the 1970's "Early Rock And Roll Revival". A few of these are not real easy to find. Remember, this was put together almost 25 years before the Internet.  Some of these tunes are "2nd takes", or re-recordings by the original artists.  This was sold on T.V., just like "Ronco Presents "Disco Gold".  This album is a real fun listen.


title: good recording

text: First song was a bit over done, but the rest were good. Glenn Close holds her own with the opera singer. Nice addition for the Christmas season.


title: Best Gift

text: This was by far my favorite gift from my husband. I love Wadruna and this album did not disappoint. The gift arrived in time for me for Xmas. The packaging was perfect. It's on constant replay.

This is one of my favorite cds,Thanks to Rareza Music for releasing this great gem.
