title: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Kiss My Amps (Live)

text:
I caught Tom last summer when he and his outlaw band showed up in Philadelphia, and recorded the show from the Worst Seat In The House.  Point being, during a conversation with Tom after the show, I pulled out my copy of Rolling Stone where he talked about his upcoming tour, saying not to expect the tried and true oldies, that he was gonna concentrate on his new release Mojo ... which he didn't, playing all the old stuff, and leaving this genuinely terrific album standing in the wings, with only a few of the tracks to see the spotlights.  When I asked him about it, he rubbed his face from chin to his forehead with one hand, in one continuous motion, leaving a tight lipped smile, and said, "Yeah?"

While this album doesn't contain all of the material from Mojo, he certainly pulls out some of the best tracks, tracks which were delivered smokin' and red hot.  This vinyl release is a very limited production [5000 numbered copies] and contains a digital download card, just so you never have to play it. The track "Sweet William" had previously only been a B-Side from the single "Room At The Top."  Me [?], I'll download those songs and then rock back with my best air guitar as warm analog notes filter through my speakers.

Review by Jenell Kesler


title: Ecstatic

text: We played Feyer's "Echoes of Childhood" a countless number of times when I was small, dancing around the living room. This recording taught me to love music and piano as a child. The record was lost sometime in my teens. Never thought I'd see it again. Now I've got it and more (My fair Lady) on this outstanding CD. This is a great find for me and my family.


title: Price

text: This same recording, including shipping, is available from Presto Classical for under $25.  The performance is worth hearing but not at these prices.  This price is beyond ridiculous.


title: Off The Beaten Path

text:
Komitas 1869-1935
Piano Music
Armenian Dances
Children's Pieces
Short Polyphonic Suite
Song Without Words 1 and 2
Funeral March
Msho shoror

Arzruni (piano)

Kalan 560

Here is one of the most fascinating composers I have come across in a long time.  The notes in one of the two discs I have indicated that once Debussy kissed his hand after hearing Komitas play and said he was a genius.  His biography is tragic. He was a survivor of the 1915 Kurdish holocaust by Turks and  spent a lot of time in asylums as a result.

His music is simply amazing.  In fact, I ordered another, two disc set, of his music after listening to this one.  (On Megadisc with the Hugo Wolf Quartet and with Arthur Aharonyan on piano on a second disc.  That one is worth it for the material by the Quartet).  I could have saved my money.  That set is not as good for two reasons.

First is the sound.  The sound on the Kalan disc is significantly better.  There is a bell-like quality to the piano that resonates and gives life to the music.  The sound on the other disc is flat, no transparency and sounds almost monaural.

Second is the playing.  I am not going to pretend to be an expert in the Armenian Sound but Arzruni feels more idiomatic.  His phrasing is more fluid whereas Aharonyan feels more "classical" and stiff.

Anyone interested in classical music that is off the beaten path should invest in the Kalan disc.


title: rockabilly outlaw

text: waylon is the best,even though he was confined to a chair , he still gave it his all!!his charisma and stage presance still shone through and his audiance was in awe as they should have been !this concert is a must see for ALL music lovers of any type or age !


title: A Different Voice

text: I love listening to this woman - just wish there was more of her material available. I have purchased her album "Manta Ray".  My favourite song of hers a reading of "Mr Sandman" from Halloween. Among the 6000+ songs I have on iTunes I have listened to it 28 times


title: Vocal variety, joy, imagination, instrumental variety--  these guys are a music find in a music desert

text: These people are terrifi.  Lead vocals are top notch--  this man has talent--  he sings and does not rap for lack of vocal talent like so many.  And he doesn't sound like a coffee house wimp like so many of today's vocalists.  Music is reminicent of the 80s.  So may songs are monotonous within a song--  these guys achieve vocal and instrumental variety.  Producers of their music have imagination--  something sorely lacking in today's music if you would cal today's music, music.  5 stars for these people on talent and imagination--  I love their work and wish that they would do more

text: Love it.


title: BUY THIS!

text: If Antipop Consortium is your thing, then you will want this in your collection.


title: A Moderately Wizard Interlude

text:
This isn't horrible, it's a little on the cheesy side like young Anakin in Phantom Menace, but it could work as something that actually happened within the Star Wars universe during the time period between Hope and Empire, but it would have helped if the original voice actors were present in this radio drama. Likewise some of the dialogue needed shortened or corrected so that the rebels were not leaking the hows and whys of their plans over open intercoms.
 With the voice actors we ended up with, I can't say they did a horrible job, in fact for the most part they sound pretty well on spot, though there are times when their comedic delivery fell flat and felt contrived. Also there was a moment I wasn't sure who was speaking, Luke or C-3PO, the voices sounded too much alike for a moment, as if done by the same voice actor.
 Check it out for sure, but don't expect much beyond the quality of an early 80's Saturday morning cartoon. On that note, this short story could use an updating.


title: Really Beethoven!

text: This recreation from pieces of the Tenth Symphony, done by a master Beethoven scholar and musicologist, really hits the mark. It truly sounds Beethovenian. It is a beautiful and very interesting work. Anyone who loves B's music, and knows it, will hear many elements from his works evoked in this piece.


title: 417 is our favorite peaceful nights sleep

text: We have basically played some form of this or the Christmas album every since we got our hands on it. Just a great background music to keep the clutter of white noise from taking over. I've gifted it to people who then bought more to give to others. I know that isn't a coincidence and I am happy to say when we had a vehicle with a CD player - the "bridge" was always on. We have kids who request 417 to sleep. :)


title: Before Fusion

text: Before there was "fusion," and before there was "smooth jazz," there was John Klemmer. At the tender age 0f 20, displaying a lyrical and haunting sound of real jazz that will blow you away. This, his second album, is a real treat and puts all of his many faces on display, (except the "Echo-Plex" that came in his fabulous "Blowing Gold next LP), and he does not disappoint. Seems they don't do music like this anymore, but if you can get a hold of this gem, run with it, find your lover, and let the music take you places you you have yet to explore. "And We Were Lovers" will take you there.


title: Five Stars

text: Sheer quality from Bill Carter! A must buy!


title: Mating Simplified

text: Excellent advice from Abraham, the extra-dimensional panel of experts, channeled by Esther Hicks. Sometimes surprisingly funny this wonderful hour of sensible advice will transform your life if you're waiting for someone else to come along to complete it. Someone else will not complete it. You have to become complete within yourself, learn to like yourself, before you can form a viable relationship. Makes sense to me.


title: The Yardbirds come back with a bang!

text: Love this CD! The Yardbirds had just been inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame, so Chris Dreja joined the Jim McCarty Band and the Yardbirds we’re back. Singer/bassist John Idan was a great addition. He sounded a lot like Keith Relf — But didn’t have emphysema so his vocals were more powerful and impassioned. The band had been playing at the Station Tavern in London with original lead guitarist Top Topham; however, Rod Demick had replaced him at this point — setting the stage for the enormously talented Gypie Mayo. The band is tight, hot and enthusiastic. Lightning in a bottle was captured on this night, setting the stage for the still on-going revival of the one of the most iconic bands to emerge from England.


title: A CD for those who do not have a copy of the "Get Back" album

text: Hoo boy -- a cheaply made CD with the rooftop concert from the "Let It Be" film combined with engineer Glynn John's version of the album originally called "Get Back." This release was never properly mastered, as evidenced by a dramatic drop in volume and clarity between the live and studio recordings. My advice? Let it be.


title: A wonderful collection of rare, live Rolling Stones classics!

text: Culled from the earliest TV appearances by the original Rolling Stones line-up, this is a collector's dream come true. One used to have to pay a king's ransom for hard-to-hear collections of these performances. This crystal-clear collection of British R&B performed by the masters of the genre is a treat for the ear and contains the only above-ground released version of "High Heeled Sneakers" ever released and 12 other treasures!


title: At last, The Beatles "Decca Sessions" done right!

text: I have owned every version of the Beatles audition sessions for Decca Records, so when this popped up on Amazon, I decided to take a chance -- and, boy, was I glad I did. This is the best-sounding, best-sequenced version of the Pete Best edition of the band. I will continue to treasure it. What a joy to hear it done right.


title: A joyous celebration of music

text: No one expressed joy through his voice and harmonica like Norton Buffalo. I don't know where the other "reviewer" came up with the $10,0000 price, but this gem is listed as $5.92. It was probably a temporary listing glitch. Nevertheless, it's a shame to see this heartfelt release saddled with a one-star review. Ignore it and treat yourself to a real gem of a recording. "Watchin' My Children Grow" is especially poignant considering Norton's passing at such a young age. He loved his boys very much. In addition, his rendition of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" is a classy take on a classic song.


title: Best Picture Calender Available

text: The first time I came across a Ansel Adams Calender was when visiting San Francisco in the late 90's. I was in a store on the wharf and noticed the calender. It was sealed but I purchased it anyway and when I got home hung it in my office. I was elated when I viewed the pictures and their quality that I have been buying the calender since. For anyone that likes beauty and photography I would recommend this calender.


title: Excellent CD

text: This the clearest reproduction of his songs I have heard no noise no pops. Well done!


title: 100 Irish Jokes

text: We heard the "100 Irish Jokes" CD on a bus full of people talking and laughing and missed hearing some of it. What we did hear was so good we ordered the CD so we could listen at home or in the car without the extra noise. It has exceeded all our expectations. Very very funny.


title: This track is AWESOME !!

text: I just want to say I am a simple SAHM living in AK with a little boy who LOVES wild birds. I put this on for him regularily(we've had it for about a month now)and he's starting to say "American Robin" (and others) now when he hears them outside!! For us it has been one wonderful way to help our children connect with nature.


title: It’s Healthy and Delicious.

text:
The best Coffee ever, and I love I can bring  with me everywhere.

When I m flying  I do not have to walk all over the airport to have a delicious cup of gourmet coffee.  exquisite.

And now I’m driving I only have to stop , take a break and prepare instantly with hot water or ice if you prefer .
I loved renew my life and help me keep going and be focus in all my activities .  I loved.

I bought this not realizing it was coming from, and made in Russia. The selection of songs is excellent, and the quality of the CD is excellent. Next time I run into a CD that was made in Russia, I will definitely buy it.


title: I like this EP alot

text: Even with the change of lead singers, I like this EP alot.  Not as much as their last album with the female lead singer.  I listen to this EP constantly.  Wish they would tour the US.


Why this band isn't signed to a record deal is beyond me.  Excellent album.  Hope to hear more from them.

text: This is a great CD! It's wonderful to hear real men's voices singing different kinds of songs, and to hear the themes of each song! These men's imperfect voices make it so interesting to listen to!  I find myself singing the songs to myself well after I'm done listening!


title: What a delight! We were always on the edge of our ...

text: I purchased this to listen to in the car on every day trips to the grocery store 15 minutes away or for longer trips to visit grandparents.  What a delight!  We were always on the edge of our seats listening (even the parents!).  Great lessons learned and practical ways to live our your faith in every day situations.  We also enjoyed listening on our local radio station when we were stationed with the Army at Fort McCoy, WI.  We're going to stock up this Christmas and birthday's and catch up to the latest series.

title: A great Mystic Records compilation!

text: I used to have a lot of Mystic Records stuff on vinyl in the mid-1980’s including this comp which had the dog, Cosgrove on the cover and a blueish tint. This collection is as awesome today as it was back then. Punk bands from all over...over 60 of them. You know what? Almost all of them sound different! All Mystic compilations are great. I am so happy a copy of this on CD popped up here!


title: An important document of NJ punk and HC!

text: The first compilation of New Jersey punk and hardcore I ever got was in 1985 and it was called “New Jersey’s Got It?” on Buy Our Records. “Stuck in the Middle” is just as good. I was born in New Jersey so I’ve got a soft spot for all things Jersey-related. This compilation covers all the bases / styles. With the punk stuff you get catchy, gritty, and street and from the hardcore side you get metal-influenced, grindcore-influenced, 1988 NYHC-influenced and...and...there’s just so much ground covered and each track offers something different! There are no flops here.


title: Outstanding collection!!!

text: I love this CD!!! I wasn’t looking for it and never even heard of the record label or any of the bands. I love that there are no songs that are overpolished and glossy. This is a great collection of crunchy punk rock songs that are a joy and so much fun to listen to. Everything has a cool 1998 sound and brings back lots of memories of that era. Yeah, this CD is awesome!!!


title: Well done!

text: Very nice. I wish the recording was done straight from the mics / amps. This sounds like it was recorded with mics in the back of the room. It’s a great documention of 1985 Husker Du and a must for completists!


title: Heard them back in the 80's on some compilations and ...

text: Heard them back in the 80's on some compilations and finally got around to ordering their stuff on CD. This is quality stuff. Very tension-filled medium-paced SoCal punk / hardcore that is melodic without sounding poppy and dark-sounding at times without sounding goth or whatever. Just listen to some clips. This CD is mostly a live, big show recording but it sounds awesome. There are a handful of studio tracks at the end. If you loved "How Could Hell Be Any Worse?" by Bad Religion and "Mommy's Little Monster" by Social Distortion you will love this album as the feel is very similar. This is a great album by a band that had a unique edge. The vocals are emotive and distinct and the guitar work is great and recognizable. This is a solid record with ZERO filler which is a very rare thing.


title: Nominee for your "Deserted Island CD"

text:
If ever there was a nominee for a deserted island cd, this would be one to nominate. Every track.....every friggin' track drips with indian summer sunsets, just like the album cover. You'll go mad if you try to pick a favorite because you will always second guess your pick. That is a good problem to have on a deserted island.

Try out "Jericho" or "Through The Trees" and just melt while you stand on your own two feet.

I have the purple album cover, which is a reissue. I also have the extremely rare original blue album cover CD, which does not have the added tracks the reissue has.

Best to just pick this up, now!


title: Amazing condition. Small dent in outer sleeve is all.

text: Amazing quality the casing was nicely packaged and well put together. They always tend to break in shipping at some point and they’re cheaply made which doesn’t help. But was surprised this was in perfect condition. Outer sleeve casing has a small dent but doesn’t bother me any as it’s the same as the cd casing and cover art. Just in cardboard. It’s nice for display actually


title: The Masquerade by Meleé

text: I purchased The Masquerade about 8 years ago. This is the top of my list of completely overlooked albums. The Masquerade in particular is as good as pop music can get. Along with Del Amitri and Jellyfish I scratch my head in wonder every time I play any of their music as with the other two groups.


title: One of the best Christian metal albums

text: My tastes in music, especially in metal, and especially during my high school days back in the late-eighties, was Thrash. Testament, Megadeth, Metallica, Vengeance Rising dominated my cassette player in my '78 Caprice Classic station wagon! That said, I was really blown away at how much I liked this album when I first heard it. It's NOT Thrash... not by a mile. What it is, though, is some of the best melodic heavy metal coming out of the LA scene at that time. Aside from the goofy cover, and goofier name, Holy Soldier's S/T is a killer rock album!


title: Doris Akers album

text: This album is okay.  I like Doris Akers but she is better when she is singing her own music.  The songs on this album just sound too country to me.


title: Doris Akers album

text: My favorite gospel composer of all time.  I heard many songs from this album on Youtube but it is especially nice to now have my own copy to play at home.  I am a church organist and choir leader, this is an especially helpful item.


title: "Lookin' For A Love" should have been a smash hit in '62!

text: This is an excellent compilation of songs by the young Womack brothers, or "The Valentinos."  The sound quality is great on this disc but it lacks a set of liner notes or a booklet with dates and other information about each track.  I was really hoping to read more about each song and some background on the group. I bought this disc for one song, track #4 "Lookin' For A Love" and I definitely got what I wanted.  This song should have been a smash hit on the R&B charts in 1962, it is truly a smooth tune that is just too cool. I suppose I should not have assumed I'd get a booklet with the CD, but it was still worth it.


title: Anointed!

title: I don't know whether it was in good condition. I am familiar with the collection it ...

text: There were suppose to be two albums inside the sleeve but there was only one.  The person who sent the album was negligent and should have been vigilant in making sure that both album was present inside the sleeve. I cannot rate the  album because I did not play it.  I don't know whether it was in good condition. I am familiar with the collection it is a very good album to possess but I was buying the album again to share with my God Son.  To my dismay.


title: A great CD!!!

text: No problems everthing was excellent.  I recommend this CD highly.  Try it you will like it. It was Great!!! Howard Univ. Choir is the best.


title: An excellent reissue of this classic

text: Moondog was an incredible composer and poet. This release in particular was always considered a classic and for years was difficult to find and acquire because it often commanded a premium price. But with this reissue, this incredible music is available again. Jazzy, a bit orchestral, and arcane, it is beautiful and bears repeated listening.


title: Super album on super vinyl

title: I bought the very last copy

text: I just purchased this, someone had it available used for $28 and I had to snatch it up. I remember Garrison from Ireland’s 32 I was a young lad at the time and loved going to hear the man play. Thanks to the resellers in here I will get to hear his music one last time. God bless you Garrision I’ll see you soon up there in the sky my friend.


title: Live!!

text: Great music from both Hope and David!!


title: Best mid-Sixties LA area Band that never got the right break

text: I went to Westchester High School (LA) with these guys in the mid-60's, all talented musicians that blended into a well-honed polished sound, instrumentally and vocally.  Same school that produced the Turtles two years earlier. Unbelievably energetic, their live shows were always consistently entertaining - great covers (especially Hollies "I'm Alive" and Leaves "Hey Joe") and strong originals.<br />You won't go wrong checking them out.

Excellent transaction. I am enjoying the CDs so much.  I have this set on old cassettes and they are almost worn out.  Glad to find this beautiful music on CD.


title: Superb performances by these legendery actors

text: I have the LP set from 1953 - slightly worn but an absolutely wonderful piece of work.  People who have this are so fortunate, but here's hoping someone will release it on CD as it is a real treasure of American theater, and of course the old LPs will someday be gone.  What a rare treat to be able to hear the marvelous voices of Tyrone Power, Raymond Massey, and Judith Anderson. Tyrone, though a world famous movie actor, felt more at home on the stage and was a superb actor with a rich baritone voice perfect for stage and radio. These three actors, along with Charles Laughton as director, were the best of the best. This recording is an important piece of theater history.

It has songs like Should I Come Home or Should I Go Crazy- Nothing Sure Looked Good On You- Paper Rosie- a some songs I'd never heard before but really liked.  It was reasonably priced and came quickly with Prime Delivery.  Really Satisfied

This must be Janet Jackson's strongest album she's ever made. Thia special edition with the extra song and disc is even better than before. God's Stepchild is heartfelt and powerful, and the remixes are phenomenal. Definitely---imho---deserves a 5-star rating.


title: Excellent!

text: Ive been wanting to find this cd again.  I originally bought one when it came out in the 90s and now it will no longer play.  I found this one at a really good price.  It arrived earlier than expected and it was in great condition.  Im so happy I ordered it.


title: Thank you, Arthur Lee

text:
I don't give a flying hoot what "Rolling Stone" or any of the other tired "rock" rags say.  Hands down, this is one of the top 10 most beautiful "rock" albums ever recorded.  Genius.  Pure genius. If you are older than 40 and younger than a Glen Miller lover, AND you never had a chance to hear this music, you were robbed.  Like living in North Korea all these years and being deprived of all basic decency.

It may not get into your brain the first spin or two, but it will. And the Changes will stay with you. Forever. Beautiful and highly creative. Every bit as poignant as Pet Sounds.  Arthur Lee deserved a whole lot better recognition for this great work.


title: Awesome

text: This is a really great cd/album with his old classic songs


title: sound quality

text: cd sounds great and very fast shipping!!!


title: Overpriced

text: I find it kind of curious that anyone who advertises any of the six OCP 'Hi God!' CD series at a discount from its list $17 price ($20 for #6) is unable to supply them.  The content of any one of the CDs is fine.  However, I don't find it one bit better than any of dozens of other Christian children's CDs.  So, I'd say they are at least double over-priced when compared to other Christian children's music CDs.  [For example, for $19.95 you can get a 5-disc set, with 192 Christian songs, from Cedarmont Kids.  How long do you think your kids would take to get bored with the 17 songs on 'Hi God! 6' compared to 192 songs?]


title: Early Rock-a-billy & Boogie

text: If you like rock-a-billy or boogie woogie music, you'll surely like this CD, especially if you like early forms of it.  This set (#7, CD2) has Fats Domino singing 'Fat Man,' recorded in 1949 and considered by many to be the first rock-n'-roll recording.  Don't try listening to these CDs when you need a nap - it's hard to nap and tap your feet, just itching to get up and dance.  Also in this set is Elvis, Bill Haley and maybe a dozen or two artists you've never heard of!


title: One BIG Question . . .

text:
Does anyone know if the songs on this CD set are the original recordings, or re-recordings?  Since it doesn't answer that question anyplace, including the little booklet that comes with it, I would grade it as such:
5-stars - if they are the original recordings
3-stars - if some or all are re-recordings.

So, I'll hedge my rating by placing it half way between at 4-stars.

text: The twist at the end was wonderful!


title: im missing a few things lol

text: I love this album BUT i never got a poster or the pin thing..


title: Breathtaking

text: Deeply meditative and heartfull - a breathtaking CD.  If you are looking for meditative music with beautiful lyrics that isn't synthesized or repetitive chant, this is the best of its kind.  Kirtana's lyrics are spiritually breathtaking, her voice resonant and beautiful, the instrumental arrangements equally beautiful (and real, not synthesized).  These songs will open your heart, soothe your soul, and still your mind.  I have this CD along with her two others (This Embrace and A Deeper Surrender) in my CD player and I just can't seem to listen to anything else.  A real gem.

text:
This album is filled with upbeat and melodic music that is being sung
by a lass with a wonderful voice.Compared to music currently generated
in the U.S.A., one readily recognizes how inferior  American music has become!!


title: Perfect Pop

text:
It's hard to review this CD because, each song deserves it's own moment in the sun. They're all so different and special.  But, one thing they all have in common; the melodies play in your mind, and the lyrics stay in your heart long after the songs are through.

Add to the mix, amazing vocals, harmonies and quality production and you have what is possibly one of the best Pop albums I have heard in over a decade.


title: Wonderful Film

text: A great movie!  One of my favorites. It is beautifully written and beautifully acted.


title: The Raisins - Fear Is Never Boring

text: This is an excellent album.  When I was just out of high school I listened to this album (vinyl I think it was) all the time. The band originated from Cincinnati, Ohio (i think) and the members were Bob Fetters, Bob Nyswonger, Rick Powell, and Neiheisel Bam I believe.  I am unsure how, who and when the band changed to "The Bears".  I liked the "The Raisins" sounded better.  :-)<br />[...]


title: Deep sounds and lyrics. Art has never been so unfiltered yet refined.

text: This is one of those albums that takes several listenings with a hifi stereo to fully understand and appreciate. If you're an audiophile that wants to push your system to the max or someone that just feels a million miles away from the rest of the world, this album is for you.


I bought this CD when it came out.  Unlike a most, I still listen to it regularly.  A lot of very catchy songs, good beats, great vocals and overall cool vibe.  I highly recommend it.

Great compilation. I wish it included "El Reloj", "Amor que malo eres", as well as a few more songs from the Avilés, Rodríguez, and Albino era. Could have done well without the Eyde Gorme songs. Overall excellent though.


title: Disappointment

text: Great album originally, but this is a cheap recording from a scratchy old vinyl record -- not a<br />digital CD made from the original analog tapes.


title: love this record

text: the price was high being an import. but worth it.


title: I am hooked !!!!

text: A friend gave me this CD for my birthday last year and I love it !!  It really "grows" on you.  It is full of contemporary Christian music with a blend of favorite hymns that everyone knows.  A good mix of Christian music, in my opinion - something for everyone.  I liked it so well that I have given it as a  birthday present for two of my friends  this year.

Okay, you've probably NEVER heard of this Boston gal but.....this record is off-the-scale!  Think Kim Richey, Robin Lane, Bottle Rockets, Drivin N Cryin and DRIVE BY TRUCKERS!

"Different Cars" has more muscle than most, these days, could even handle.  Yeah, it's THAT good.

Find it.  Play it.  Turn it UP...turn it waaaaaaay up!

Scopa on gutitar, Sholl on sax!!!!

It's insane!

Heeh, HEEH!!!

Jim Breuer and the Loud and Rowdy are about the closest thing these days to real rock and roll artists. Jim has a real unique approach to his comedy and music that reflects some of the, lets say, challenges of real life. To truly appreciate his music I would recommend listening to some of his standup comedy. He is tears to the eyes hysterical. But seriously, the band has a good sound, real talent, and they are just freaking awesome! I would love to see more of The Loud and Rowdy.

title: Enjoyable, but very abridged

text: I bought 'Der Kleine Hobbit' in Stuttgart to help me retain my German. I purchased this 'sonderausgabe' (special edition) audio book so I don't forget what German sounds like. It absolutely serves that purpose. However, it is abridged which makes it difficult to follow along in the text which is how I reinforce my German usage. Someone who wants to enjoy Der Hobbit and not spend the additional time of listening through an unabridged edition will do well to buy this version. If you want an audio rendition of the entire text, I would recommend looking elsewhere. It is produced with very solid production values and is certainly enjoyable and the passages it skips past do not harm the overall intregity of Tolkien's story. If you are an avid Tolkien fan who wants to explore his text in German, this may not be the right choice for you; but if you just want to spend some time listening to a quality rendition, this does the job.

title: The First Full LP From The Soul Serenaders

text: This is yet another classic Philly Soul album never re-released on cd; what a pity it is.  The Intruders Are Together album has a lot of historical and aesthetical value.  Gamble and Huff were up and coming writers and producers, and it shows on this great set.  This 1967 LP shows the Intruders (one of my very favorite groups of all time along with the Delfonics)in top form, and has a song from as early as 1964 before Gamble and Huff!  The song is "But You Belong To Me," a sweet, innocent, mid tempo late doo-wop groove.  "Gonna Be Strong," I believe is from 1965, another mid tempo horn laden doo-wopper, perhaps the group's first song with Gamble and Huff.  The rest of the songs are from 1966 and 1967, and all are wonderful with that sweet harmony (which again comes from their early 60's doo-wop roots) and cool, gruff lead of Little Sonny Brown.  "A Devil With An Angel's Smile," "Good For Me Girl" (mispelled on the album as "Good For My Girl"),and "Baby I'm So Lonely" are other doo-wop grooves with a slower tempo.  The title song is one of their best; it is a mid tempo classic and well known in their repertoire.  "Up and Down The Ladder" (1966) is an uptempo winner with an upbeat vibe despite the bittersweet lyrics about a metaphor for a relationship's ups and downs.  I love the strings on the midtempo "A Book For The Brokenhearted," an apparent play and expansion (not a cover thereof) on The Monotones "Who Wrote The Book of Love" (1958).  "It Must Be Love" (1966) is an upbeat, happy jam which occurs again on the Cowboys To Girls album (1968).  "United" (1966) is a great wedding song with its sweet strings and sappy harmony.  "(You'd Better) Check Yourself" is a departure.  It is a fast paced song with an angry overtone about warning a girl about her wild behavior in a relationship.  "A Love That's Real"  is a popular classic featrued on every Intruders' Greatist Hits compilation, a cool mid tempo song.  I had to but the LP and have the seller rip the files to burn onto CD for me to have this album costing me 140 bucks, and I am not a rich man either, just a passionate fan of the group.  It was worth every last penny for me!  I had to do the same for Cowboys to Girls (1968) and When We Get Married (1970), both classics and expensive, and again worth every last penny.  I love every single song on the album.  I wish all the Intruders' albums (pre Save the Children (1973) and Energy of Love (1974) which have been re-released on CD, and I have them too) would be given the royal treatment and remastered for CD re-release.  The Intruders are the epitome of the Philly Soul movement and were there from day one.  The Intruders were a true doo-wop to disco group like the Manhattans and the Whispers.


title: Worth The Trouble To Find; Philly Soul Classic

text: I love late 60's and early 70's soul and RnB, and I am a huge Intruders fan.  The sad thing about the great Philly group is that most of their albums have never been reissues on CD, and this album from 1970, When We Get Married is one of those albums.  The wierd thing is that I do not even have a vinyl turntable, yet  I was desparate to own the music.  I ordered a copy of the vinyl from Music Stack, an online site that sells, well, music, even rare albums.  The seller from whom I ordered the lp acquires the album from a dealer network and then rips the songs onto an MP3 player and burns the songs to a cd.  Another seller did that with the Intruders 1968 Cowboys to Girls album, and both set me back over 100 dollars each.  It was worth every cent, and I am not a rich man at all, just passionate about great music.  The 1970 When We Get Married album is the Intruders at top form.  Little Sonny Brown, the lead singer from 1960 until 1970, and the cool rapsy voice behind songs like 1967's "Together" and 1968's "Cowboys to Girls" has briefly departed for family reasons, necessitating a lead singer to fill the huge void.  A lounge singer Bobby Starr takes over for this album and a few subsequent non album singles in the early 70's. He more than takes over vocal leads, for he fits in very well with the Intruders style of doo-wopping and harmony, and even though his voice is somewhat similar, it is less raspy.  He brings as much magic to the table on this album as Sonny did beforehand, and would do again from 1973 and later.  My favorite song on here is "One In A Million."  It is a bluesy mid-tempo number with lyrics of heartbreak about a guy who loses a lover whom he thought to be the one, and hasn't been able to love other women afterwards in the same manner.  "Hocus Pocus" is a funkier number that deals with using magic to seduce a woman, a funny upbeat groove and song.  "Wonder What Kind Of Bag She's In" reminds me in musical style of the Delfonic's 1970 classic (Didn't I) Blow Your Mind This Time, at least in terms of the hook.  The title song is a remake of a 1961 doo-wop classic by the Dreamlovers, a fellow Philly group who formed aroung the same time of the Intruders in the very early 60's.  This cover shows the top notch doo-wop harmony the Intruders have had since 1960 and would for a long time thereafter.  "Best Days Of My Love" is another mid-tempo song about reminiscing on a wonderful relationship that has ended.  I love the doo-wop harmonizing again on "Guess Who Loves You" with a slower tempo, perfect for the blue light dance.  "Brand New Me" is a slow jam with a positive message about the good effects of a relationship on a guy.  The other songs not mentioned here all contribute to an overall wonderful album.  I highly recommend it, and if you have a turntable, acquiring the record without an accompanying MP3 file loaded cd, might work for you, although the album itself is of moderate difficulty to find, but not difficult.  Albums like this are why I love the early Philly soul sound so much.


title: Great Album: I Wish They Would Re-release The Intruders LP's onto CD

text: The Cowboys to Girls 1968 LP Cowboys to Girls is a great Philly Soul album representing the earlier genius of Gamble and Huff.  While attaining the LP itself is of only moderate difficulty, it can fetcha  pretty price, since it has never been remastered/rereleased on cd.  I am a passionate soul/harmony group fanatic and ordered the LP (and the seller ripped the files to MP3 format so as to make a cd-r copy for me).  It was expensive, but for me worth every cent.  The intruders are a top-notch soul group, and this album showcases that well.  Gamble and Huff handle the production, and for the most part, the composition (songwriting).  Some of the songs go back as early as 1966 and 1967, and a couple here appear on The Intruders Are Together debut LP from 1967, which I currently do not have but have heard 80 percent of the songs thereof. Some songs are slow jams, reminiscent of their doo-wop roots, while others are more up-tempo, but all have their own charming qualities.  "It Must Be Love" is an uptempo groove, similar to the Motown Style of the period, and dates back to 1966.  The title track is one of their most famous songs, and is part of the earlier Philly Soul repertoire.  Other classics include the underground cult classic "Good For Me Girl," a mid tempo sweet ballad with charming lyrics, "(So Glad I'm) Yours," is the blue light basement slow drag with doo-wop style vocals and romantic lyrics.  There are novelty songs like "(Love Is Like A) Baseball Game," another cool hit.  One of my favorites here is "Friends No More," another doo-wop bluesy tearjerker highlighting the mistake of introducing a guy's girlfriend to his best friend.  There are a few tasteful covers here as well, like the Johnny Rivers (and much more famously Glen Campbell)song, "By The Time I Get To Phoenix," well done in the RnB style, "Call Me" a classy standard, similar to Chris Montez' 1966 version, and a oldies doo wop song "Sad Girl" (the original group's name escapes me now), which perfectly fits the Intruders' style.  I absolutely love this album, and Little Sonny Brown has a cool lead voice, and the group has impeccable harmony.  Like I said,it was worth every last penny for me to purchase.  I wish they would re-release the entire Intruders' LP catalogue, for their music stands as high as the Delfonics, Stylistics, Spinners, O'Jays, and Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes'works do in the development of Philly Soul and in RnB in general, and these groups' albums have been re-released in cd format for the most part.  I have the 1973 Save The Children cd release, but their other albums from the 60's and early early 70's should follow suit.


title: Underground Texas Slumper

text: Sho, a homie of Willie D of the Geto Boys, releases a solo album to little fanfare in 1993 under Wrap/Wize Up Records, the same label Willie D would release his bangin' 2nd album Play Witcha Mama the next yeat (1994).  The beats are deep-fried southern funk.  The production by the 2 Horsemen and Willie D ranges is pretty good for 1993 standards, but the equipment may be to blame for some bad sound quality on a few.  Subjectwise, Sho is real serious, and similar to Willie D.  He is socially aware on joints like "Trouble Man" (feat. Willie D)where he is pessimistic about the future of his life in the hood over a somber twangy beat.  He gets even more somber on "Fiend In The Family."  He explores he effects on drugs in society and within the social unit over a beautiful laid-back G-Funk style beat.  "Mississippi" is crazy.  Over a soulful backdrop, he discusses a trip to distribute drugs and has to look over his shoulder because he is on probation while leaving the state.  He sadly contemplates how if something were to go wrong, it would devastate his family.  "Miss Thang" has a laidback soul-inflected backdrop, and he macks to a hottie without fake flossing.  He is honest and humble and even a bit vulnerable even though he is upfront about "knockin' the boots."  If you are looking for a personal and sobering account of a real loc from the hood, this is it. If you are looking for crunk, party starting club hits, this ain't finna do it for ya.  If you like this album, check out Willie D's Play Witcha Mama.  Sho is a regular guest on that album, and the beats are better.

Residing in the neutral territory between "happy" ambient like Liquid Mind and "dark" ambient like Lustmord, this CD creates an atmosphere that you can interpret however you like. Great for meditation, reading, sleeping, sex, or any other occaision when you need some aural wallpaper. Check out Vir Unis's other ethereal ambient release "Aeonian Glow" as well.

Your heart and soul will never be the same.  Amazing story of destiny and connection with another individual.  Pure Chemistry.


title: My mistake

text: Wish I had known the difference between an MP3 recording and a regular CD recording. They look identical but this won't play in a CD player, only in a computer. The final descriptor states "Audio CD". Stupidly I thought it was an audio recording that I could play in any CD device. Foolish me! The cost was reasonable although the shipping fee is excessive ($4.49) for USPS snail mail. Wish they had taken the time to record it like other Old Time Radio programs on CDs. Oh, well, live and learn. If you're planning to play this, or other CDs, from this company, don't plan to play it in anything but your PC.


Hitomi 19's voice is cute and annoying at the same time, BUT she grows on you as do the infectious bass lines of  LES-5-4-3-2-1, at least two of these songs were used in the original Dance Dance Revolution video game and three others were used in the OVAs for Go Nagai's Cutey Honey in the 90s. These people are fantastic and anyone who likes J-pop will LOVE this album!


title: Best children's CD for the whole family.

text: Seriously?  Anything by the Ben Redneck and Friends is about the only childrens/family music you can listen to over and over and over.  Then you find yourself singing it while alone and not in the car with your kids!  Love the Phish-y, folk, and musicianship of this group!<br />Liked it so much we bought 2 more.  A frog Named Sam, and the rocketship cd because "Got a New Friend" is on it.  Wow...still singing that one.

title: THE NAUTILUS VERSION PICTURED HERE IS FROM 1980!!!!

text: This entire thread is totally nuts. The image is of a very poorly done version of "Rumours" inexplicably cut from a digital remaster when the album was recorded analog. The newer version people seem to be reviewing here, pressed at Pallas in Germany is an ALL ANALOG version. The image should be changed and so should all of the references o the Nautilus version that's been out print for decades and was kind of rare to the begin with and poor sounding too.


title: Vinyl "must have"

text: An absolutely stunning vinyl record. No digital copy can possibly compete. Though Hartman was well past his prime at the time and he has some trouble with the lyrics, his vocals are superb. Funny story: I got the "Bridges of Madison County Soundtrack"  CD in to review and incredibly, the Hartman songs were AT THE WRONG SPEED. He's got a deep voice but this was ridiculous! Someone had the sampling rate converter set incorrectly and no one noticed. I contacted Eastwood's production company and alerted them to the problem. At first they seemed to not care at all, which surprised me since Clint is such a big jazz fan....but eventually I THINK they fixed the problem


title: Nice CD -case broken

text: Loved the worship and I received the CD in a timely manner, but the CD case was broken. Other than that I am truly enjoying it! Thanks!

title: "You Guys Rock"

text: The songs are clever and captivating. The elements of ska, country, hard rock, and ballad blend together to create a variety of songs for every mood. All original songs and up to the punch of any good party music or tracks to make the time fly while driving. Highly recommended.


title: A great introduction to an obscure baroque composer

text: Johann Mattheson (1681 - 1764) was according to Wikipedia a  "composer, singer, writer, lexicographer, diplomat and music theorist."  Lately some CD collections of some of his works have become available.  I have now heard quite a few, and based on what I have heard, he had very real talent as a composer.  Colin Booth has been recording many of his harpsichord works, and the present collection, which Mattheson called "The Melodious Talking Fingers," was dedicated to his close friend Handel.  Mattheson is indeed a "melodious" composer... all of his works that I have heard to date are based on themes so catchy that I might be tempted to whistle along, except that I can't whistle.  Highly recommended, if your thirst for baroque music requires variety and stretches beyond the usual suspects.


title: each sound excellent. Seeing as how you receive 12 discs total ...

text:
I can appreciate the first review that was made for this product; being an avid Megaman player and mastering the first six X games, I know exactly what the reviewer is referring to with that "maraca" sound in Gravity Beetle's stage.  I can hear it with my audio set-up and it's pronounced enough that it doesn't bother me, but I also have lower expectations for the first three SNES X OST's simply because the music is still of that MIDI quality (although those tunes are still extremely catchy).

I haven't yet listened to the two Megaman Extreme soundtracks, or the PS2 RPG that came out years ago.  However, the CD quality tracks, starting with the soundtrack to Megaman X4 and continuing up towards the PSP Maverick Hunter game, each sound excellent.  Seeing as how you receive 12 discs total in this package with up to 50/60 tracks per disc, I'd say this is a pretty good deal, especially if you're a Megaman X fan.  Mind you, I was able to purchase mine for around $110 new on this site, so I wouldn't go overboard with paying some of the excessive prices I've seen online, especially when a lot of this music is available through other means.

Overall, the nostalgia factor remains intact for me, and I'm sure there are others that will agree as well.

Pros:
Original tracks...not remakes.
Good sound.
No skipping or distortion.
No scratches or cracks

Cons:

No comprehensive catalog of songs.
A case was damaged during shipping.
When importing the discs into my computer I discovered that discs 1 & 2 read as the albums of one of the artists on the disc and I had to manually enter all of the information. Disk 4 read as a different mix album when imported and the last two had no track info at all.
Lots of classic songs, but some that I don't really consider rock and will skip through. I know you can only use what you can get permission to use, but many big names were conspicuously absent...Led Zeppelin for one.

The DVD is nice. It works great and has some wonderful artists on it. Update: what I thought was just a one time glitch has now repeated several times. It's just a quick glitch in the playback, but it is notable.

Full Disclaimer : received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review.

Thinking of paying full price for these discs, I'm not sure they're worth it. You could put together a much nicer play list for about the same cost buying individual MP3s.

I'd say, at the full retail price point, it's a no, but if the price came down I'd recommend it.

text: Boy am I glad I didn't manage to get tickets to her Vegas concert, if this is the drivel she'll be singing. This album is a pity party for one, songs are soooo depressing,<br />(except 2 tracks) especially the one with her son in it. I thought she was made of tough British stock, guess I was wrong. I'm selling my CD if anyone is interested, 50% off.

text: I bought this because the old vinyl LP I enjoyed so much "back in the day" is scratched up and largely unplayable.  I finally found this CD here on Amazon and snapped it up so I could hear this very nice music again.  Regarding the sound quality, I'm not sure how they made this CD.  For the first few tracks, it sort of sounds like they recorded the CD from a vinyl LP playing on a turntable, as there is a noticeable rumbly/"fluttery" sound in the background.  You may not hear this with small speakers, as it is in the bass audio frequencies.  Or perhaps they sourced it from a tape version with a fair amount of wow and flutter.  That being said, the overall sound quality is quite enjoyable and brought back memories of my younger days.  I just cannot rate it higher than 3 because of the audio quality.


title: Great band, great memories

text: Like the others, I got this CD back when it was released in Okinawa.  It's too bad the babe wasn't able to stick together through their deployments and other life events, because they had the talent to be a huge success.


title: Heirloom Audio Dramas Are Top Notch

text: My children enjoy listening to audio dramas while playing Legos together, or as a time to wind down before bed. This was our second purchase from Heirloom Audio, and it did not disappoint. The production level is top notch, the actors really make the story come alive, and the story is riveting. We were very excited to hear that Heirloom has yet another story in the works. If you are looking for a high quality, entertaining audio drama, look no further. This is right up there in quality with productions from Focus on the Family Theater.

title: Great Way to Learn Bible Verses

text: I have been playing these CD's in the mornings while my children eat breakfast before school.  When I pick them up from school, they are singing the songs and tell me they were singing the songs in their heads at school.  I'd say that's a pretty good thing that they are keeping Bible verses in their minds when they are away from home.


title: Reincarnated Opera for Romantics

text: Whether you are an Elton John fan, an opera buff or just a lover of romantic, historical, life-affirming stories, the music of AIDA by Elton John and Tim Rice is an exhilirating adventure into the Cosmos, Love and Immortality.


title: Under rated release from Wings

text: As McCartney began his solo career, he released "McCartney" and "Ram," two of the best albums of his career, and two of the best home produced records of all time. Its no wonder then, that when this album was released, fans and critics were dumbfounded. Often hailed as one of Macca's worst records, "Wild Life" is odd, built on jams and riffs, and contains trite lyrics. But it is important to remember: McCartney wanted to form a gold-old-fashioned touring band. Here it sounds like the members of that band got together in a living room or garage, drank a few beers, and started playing. Only "Tomorrow" and "Dear Friend" really sound calculated, and this record is just fun- Its great to but on in the background one day, or while your driving, but certainly not to sit around and listen to like you would with a Beatles record- this isn't close to a Beatles record. So it is possible to call this a bad record, or to call it what it is: a fun, folky, enjoyable relaxed record which hints at what Wings would accomplish.


title: Twisted and Touching...

text:
"Matilda" is a critically acclaimed and Olivier-award winning hit in London, and from its cast recording, it's easy to see why. In creating songs for this adaptation of Roald Dahl's children's book about a young girl neglected by her comically abusive parents,  comedian-musician Tim Minchin has done a fantastic job retaining the sweet and sour elements that made Dahl's fiction ("Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,"  "The Witches," etc.) so indelible.

He hits the right off-kilter notes from the start in the impressive opening number," Miracle," which starts with a bunch of bratty kids singing about how wonderful they are: "My mummy says I'm a miracle/One look at my face and it's plain to see/ Ever since the day doc chopped the umbilical cord/It's been clear there's no peer for a miracle like me!" Minchin's lyrics are quick and clever throughout, and retain the black humor of Dahl's work. After Matilda is born ("My mummy says I'm a lousy little worm/My dad says I'm a bore"), she eventually summons her inner strength and a dash of telekinesis, to make a better life for herself and her sweet teacher played by Lauren Ward (who it's nice to hear on another cast recording--her performance in "Violet," from over a decade ago, still gets repeat play by me.) Aside from the comic numbers for the despicable adults, Minchin has written some genuinely poignant songs for Matilda and her teacher: "Quiet" and "My House."

While the whole cast is great, the performance that stuck with me most is by Bertie Carvel, who won an Olivier Award for his cross-dressing performance as the vile headmistress Miss Trunchbull. Nobody's played a villain quite this unique in quite this way (Stay tuned after the last track for a hilarious monologue bonus.).

I'm quite sure "Matilda" will be the best received London transplant since "Billy Elliot."


title: A quality cast recording-- if you can find it!

text:
The cast recording for the musical "La Cava"  seems to be thoroughly out of print so I don't know why I'm even bothering with a review... but in case a used copy pops up somewhere, as it did for me on here a few months ago, some musical fans might be interested in giving it a try.

I really enjoyed this recording.  Written by Laurence O'Keefe ("Bat Boy"), Stephen Keeling, and others, the musical, which premiered in London in 2000, is a slice of Spanish history told in an entertaining, if admittedly derivative, pop-opera style.  It takes place in the 8th century, and the plot revolves around the true story of a love affair between the beautiful Florinda, a general's daughter, and the reigning King Roderic ("La Cava" is essentially slang for "The Whore"). Their turbulent romance ended up changing the course of history in Spain. It's an intriguing basis for a musical and contains a lot of elements (passion, revenge, war, etc.) that are ripe for "big" musical moments.

In fact, one of the major pleasures of this recording is its "big"-ness.  The orchestra here is unusually large, especially for a little-known show, and the musicians provide a lavish sound throughout.  The story is epic in scope, and so this is just what's needed.  As for the music, this is the kind of score that might sound a little too familiar to a lot of musical fans.  It does feel a bit like a patchwork of other musicals- this will undoubtedly make some listeners smile and others cringe.  I smiled.

Pop opera is probably the best description of the score when trying to convey the tone and feel, but this is not to imply that the songs are bad.  The songs by O'Keefe and Keeling, while not strikingly original, are still quite strong throughout.  In fact, they sound even better on repeat listening-- some are more complex than you might expect from this type of musical and benefit from repeat exposure.  The score includes strong melodies in songs like "Little Girl," "A Woman's Hands," and "Stay With Me," as well as some action sequences, and even an enjoyable African dance (additional music by John Cameron).  The lyrics work overall and move things along, but they feel more functional than memorable.

The cast ranges from excellent to adequate.  As Florinda, Julie-Alanah Brighten is fantastic, possessing a strong voice and effortlessly conveying a range of emotions (which is especially useful, since her character's actions make her both sympathetic and unlikeable, depending on your point of view).  As Roderic, Oliver Tobias is less assured-- he conveys a King's presence, but his singing is a little shaky.  The supporting performances are very good.  I was especially impressed with Marilyn Cutts as Queen Exilona-- her venomous rendition of the title song is a highlight on the recording.

Also, as a sort of technical side note, the 70 minute running time of the cd and that large orchestra make for a recording that was put together with admirable care.  The album includes instrumental passages and little bits of dialogue that make the recording feel solidly cohesive.  This isn't something that's totally noticeable if you're just casually listening, but for a single cd cast recording, especially of an unsuccessful show, the quality of this recording is surprisingly high.


title: Los Violines Del Amor Vol.1

text: In the 1950's a Puerto Rican bandleader named Tito Rodriguez released an album filled with memorable love songs.  It was unparalleled then and today. What helped make it so, was the accompaniment of the Leroy Holmes Orchestra. Los Violines Del Amore contain the same Tito Rodriguez tracks minus the vocals. The tracks are great.<br />Herman Velez

I was super excited to find that you could still buy the Psalty Kid's Praise music online! I remember listening to this in the car on cassette tape and being spellbound by the story. When I mentioned to my sisters that I had bought it they ALL (4) requested a copy!
  It brings back fond memories of wholesome moments spent with my family.

  I would recomend this to any family with young children between 4-12 years old.


title: Excellent performances but hard to find set

text: This set was extracted from Brilliant Classic's complete set of Shostakovich's works. The performances are quite good especially the violin works. But this set is just about impossible to find. I was lucky enough to find it through a third party seller. I dont understand why  some Brilliant Classics CD's are so hard to obtain. If you can find it at all this one is worth having.


title: Incredible Show!

text: I saw this show in London, and it was the most emotional show that I've seen, even more than Les Mis. It's a smaller show, but it soars with its performances. This recording is wonderful, right from the start with the haunting overture that still gives me chills. This recording all features Mark Hutchinson, who sadly was not at the performance I saw (although his understudy was excellent). The incredible echo effects from the show are still alive on this recording, and Stephanie Lawrence is PHENOMENAL!!! She is much better than the Mrs. Johnstone I saw (although she was quite good), and her voice is incredible. Grab this recording of this little known show, and you'll absolutely fall in love with it!

title: Catchy pop-rock, retro 60s influence, great sounds

text:
Nicely recorded and mixed, and totally fun. Several tracks start the same way (tracks at a lower volume with squashed EQ to sound a bit vintage, followed by an immediate transition to louder, fuller EQ'd setting). One time is great, twice OK. But more than that, the gimmick is done.

What happened to these guys?


title: Weirdly Weighted to 2010 and 2014

text:
A pretty solid compilation, ICE CANDY contains tracks released from mid 2010 to mid 2014, with Sunshine Girl being the oldest track on the album and ICE CANDY being recorded specifically for it. The track list mixes b-sides with big hits like Sunshine Girl, making up a pretty solid themed offering for the most part:

1. Jewel
2. Love is Everywhere
3. Sunshine Girl
4. Chu Chu
5. summer time
6. Dreaming Driving
7. Bon Appetit
8. Emerald no Oka (Emerald Hill)
9. LOVE before we DIE
10. ICE CANDY

Jewel is a driving, upbeat (it's moumoon, duh ;P) track with synth and distorted guitar backing. It's one of moumoon's weaker tracks in my opinion, along the lines of some of their anime theme work.

Love is Everywhere, Sunshine Girl, and Chu Chu are some of moumoon's most popular tracks, though none of them rate among my favorites.

summer time (previously an exclusive to the Hanabi (Fireworks) single), Dreaming Driving, and Bon Appetit are solid additions to the fluffy summer love song theme of the album. Bon Appetit is one of my favorite moumoon songs, so I was glad to see it here.

With Emerald no Oka, we get back to very recent songs that haven't had time to prove themselves. It's a good track, but not what I would have chosen to put on this compilation.

LOVE before we DIE breaks the upbeat flow completely. It has a very heavy, dramatic feel to it that just doesn't belong on this album. It's a decent song, but it just doesn't belong here.

ICE CANDY is a fully synthesized song that sounds more like a dance remix than an original moumoon track. I imagine it would be a lot of fun to see it performed live. Again though, it just doesn't fit the theme of the compilation.

The track list is mostly split between 2010 and 2014, with very little from the years in between (only Love is Everywhere, summer time, and Bon Appetit come from 2011-2013). I can think of several tracks from 15 Doors, No Night Land, and PAIN KILLER (not to mention their earlier work) that would have worked extremely well with the theme, but the selection from LOVE before we DIE is more puzzling than anything. Replacing tracks 1, 8 and 9 with other 2014 songs like Butterfly Boyfriend, Lovin' You, and memories would have made the album a stronger proposition. Track 10 is fun and could be a nice feature if the theme were more cohesive.

While it could have been better, this album covers most of the tracks that seem most popular with moumoon's average fan. It's a little hard to recommend against their regular studio albums, but it's perfect for those people who really just want Sunshine Girl and Chu Chu in the same place with some extras that are (mostly) along the same lines.


title: Only Worth It for Collectors

text:
Like Sunshine Girl, this is a promotional single for a product, so it has a pretty limited track list:

1. Jewel
2. Super Sweet Spring Medley
3. Jewel (instrumental)

Jewel itself isn't as catchy as Sunshine Girl, but I still enjoy the track. Unlike most of moumoon's singles, the version without Yuka's vocals feels empty and uninteresting.

The medley track contains snippets from (in order) Love is Everywhere, Sunshine Girl, Chu Chu, Bon Appetit, Emerald no Oka (Emerald Hill), LOVE before we DIE, Tomodachi / Koibito (Friends/Lovers), and moonlight. Like other moumoon medleys, each song gets about 60-90 seconds before an abrupt change to the next. There's no effort made to blend the tracks in transitions like you'd see in a pop/hip-hop/dance mix track. All of these songs are great, but most of them show up in full on the compilation album, ICE CANDY (ICE CANDY swaps out Tomodachi / Koibito and moonlight for summer time and Dreaming Driving).

Since ICE CANDY has Jewel and an album exclusive song (also titled ICE CANDY), it's hard to recommend this release to anyone but a collector or someone who really loves the instrumentals behind Jewel. An astronomically low cover price (for Japan) of 500 yen might make the purchase a little more attractive if you could pick it up in a local record shop at that price, but that's unlikely to happen unless you live in Japan.

text: nice cd


title: JUST BEAUTIFUL

text: I love Jack Jones voice and this particular collection has many wonderful songs that are perfectly and beautifully performed.  He is one of the best vocalists of my generation.

text: Well worth the price.


title: Had been looking for this CD

text: Prompt delivery of one of my favorite albums of piano hymns. I'd worn out the cassette tape of Lari Gross's music. Now I'm wearing out the CD!


title: DAMAGED ITEM

text: SEVERAL OF THESE SONGS SKIP. DON'T KNOW WHY BC THEY WERE SEALED AND WRAPPED AS BRAND NEW. NOTHING WRONG WITH MY OTHER CDS.


title: Unimpressive material. Skip it.

text: We love Paula, saw her perform three months ago. This tape does not make her sound like a memorable comic at all, and the others are disappointing too.


title: Fabulous (but a slightly imperfect/incomplete compilation)

text: Overall, a great CD. But where is "Problemorama" and why the hell is Darla Dirladada on this "Disco" compilation? (one of my favourite Dalida songs, but is totally out of place on this CD) .<br />For those interested, the remix album "L'an 2005" has a AWESOME dance remix of Darla Dirladada.


title: LOVELY

text: A BIT OF HARD WITH A BIT OF SOFT.  GREAT VOICE.  UNIQUE SOUNDS.<br />GIVE IT A TRY, YOU MAY LIKE IT.


title: Highly recommend "In Freedom's Cause"

text: Our family thoroughly enjoyed "In Freedom's Cause".  It was very instructive and helpful in learning more of the history of Wallace and Bruce.  We also enjoyed the good humor woven into the story as well.  We have shared a number of copies with friends & family!


title: The best Indie rap album your ever going to buy!

text: Every song on here is of the hook. My personal favorites are No Place Like The Bay, and First 2 Blast! Gamers is great and creative too. That is what suprised me, this is an extremely creative album. usually indie rap albums are derivetive and at best just passable. Good buy if your looking to see what the westcoast is doing nowadays.

text: This is an excellent country compiliation of songs from the mid to late 80's period it seems.  I just ran across one day trying to find the SKO album.  Fortunately, I got this for a great priced used and it seems the price is really high now days for this hard to find compiliation.  So if you can find it, get it!  To my knowledge this cd is possibly the only cd you can find with these artists songs on it now days.  I originally just bought it for the song "baby's got a new baby" by SKO but all these songs are excellent come to find out!  I wish they would reissue these artists albums on cd but I guess we can only hope!


title: Five Stars

text: Excellent


title: Great musical arrangements, excellent performance, but not all songs are that great. - Buenísimo, en general, pero no excelente.

text:
This album is a very intriguing concept as part of the Primera Fila series of albums.  All of the previous releases (Thalia, OV7, Vicente Fernández, Franco De Vita, Cristian Castro, Miguel Mateos (available only as import from South America) and Fey) are outstanding additions to the catalogue from these artists.  The thing with this particular album is, that these three great artists have not enjoyed a consistent musical output and are mostly famous for their membership of Timbiriche rather than their solo releases.
So in a way it feels refreshing to see them together, but it's hard to know what exactly to expect.  Sasha and Erick have ventured in made-for-radio pop, where they had their greatest successes in the late 80s and early 90s, while Benny has flourished as a composer of his own artistic records which although enjoyable, lack a certain appeal as pop-product.
And that's the issue I have with this album.  It doesn't reach the pop pinnacle factor of their most famous moments.  It is a great album, played wonderfully and sung beautifully, but when the best song of all is a cover (Presuntos Implicados' Como Hemos Cambiado) you know your expectations have to be adjusted to be able to enjoy it for what it is (a mature and accomplished performance by great artists)... and understand what is not (a sing-along collection of the great hits on your youth)


title: A great way to revisit her old hits /  Agradable manera de visitar viejas conocidas (las canciones)

text:
This double CD has new version of Daniela's greatest hits and some new songs.  It is by no means a pop effort as it seems more of a way for her to revisit the songs that made her famous while understanding trends have changed and so has her voice.  It doesn't mean we will hear "modernized" version in the latest pop trends, but simply old familiar songs rearranged in a way that sounds very fresh and engaging.  A thoroughly enjoyable disc for the fans, and for those that might remember their parents (in my case, my mom and aunts!) listening to these songs for months on end.
Some of the duets are simply magnificent, while all are good, some are truly outstanding.

Si conoces las canciones de Daniela Romo, es importante tener en cuenta que este disco doble contiene versiones con arreglos más moderados y sofisticados de sus canciones.  Algo muy agradable debido a que su voz y los sonidos de la música popular actual han cambiado bastante.  Eso no significa que sus versiones son en los géneros populares de hoy día, sino que en una manera fresca, aún respetando el estilo original pero sin esos detalles de sintetizados o percusiones que delatan a cualquier canción popular de los 80s.
Los duetos son maravillosos, algunos sencillamente espectaculares.  En general un excelente disco para recordar esas canciones que nuestros padres (¡¡mi madre y tías en especial!) escuchaban todo el tiempo por años.  ¡Vale la pena tener y disfrutar este disco de principio a fin!

And make reminding them about things really easy (they like to remind each other of this one specifically: "Remember? The Bible says to do all things without complaining or arguing" I call just that right there a win!) There are some slower songs, but most of them are very upbeat and easy to remember! Would definitely buy again!


title: A superb collection of Verdi's Overtures and Preludes

text:
This is truly one of my favorite classical CD issues ever. Anyone who is a fan of Herbert von Karajan and/or Verdi should own this 2 CD set. It pains me to see that it appears to have been withdrawn from the catalog considering that Amazon has so few purchasing options. Not only does one marvel at the seemingly endless supply of great tunes and themes that Verdi was inspired to write for his operas, but it also serves as a very delectable collection of the main themes of so many of the greatest operas ever written. Whether as background music for a wonderful Italian meal, or a balls to the wall sonic experience, this collection delivers on all levels. Indeed, the sound of this recording, made in the Berlin Philharmonie in the mid-70's, is unusually warm, clear and dynamically full for its period. The powerful bass lines and impact of the cymbals and bass drum give these performances a simply riveting and powerfully dramatic quality. Karajan's love of Verdi comes through in every bar of every piece, and the Berlin Philharmonic clearly relished the experience of performing these works.

While many of these pieces come from some of Verdi's lesser known operas, it is a joy to experience all of these numbers, giving one a sense of the totality of Verdi's offerings, and in many cases making one wish the full opera would ensue after the Overture or Prelude ends. Make no mistake, these are powerful, weighty performances with so much energy they will literally keep your heart racing the entire time. However, there is also much delicacy, beauty and refinement here as well. Karajan takes a typically broad approach to most of these works, but somehow the slower tempos make them shine all the more. The details come through wonderfully, and the climaxes are well executed and the tension is held together all throughout. I could go on and on about how much joy and passion these performances convey, so thrilling is this set. Highlights include the openings to La Traviata, where the Berlin strings show why they are world renowned; Rigoletto, which will leave you breathless; Macbeth, a darkly dramatic performance; Nabucco, very exciting and powerful, and the Va Pensiero theme swells with such overwhelming beauty it will melt your heart (no wonder the people of Italy sang it in unison at Verdi's funeral); and La Forza del Destino, which is probably the best of the bunch, thrillingly dramatic and with so many great themes rolled into one Overture. All in all, this set is a must have for opera and classical fans alike. Highly recommended!

title: Aged, but magnificent.

text: I first heard this magnificent rendition on a library LP over 50 years ago. It was then out of print and for years I had only memories of the recording. Even with its aged sound, the brilliance of the performance comes through on this CD.


title: Sui generis

text: This phrase always comes to mind when great musicians are involved. Clive Stevens is not only a genius, he has created his own genus. As one cannot mistake a Francis Bacon painting, one cannot mistake the music of Clive, it is unique. He works within the styles and genres that everyone knows: Jazz, Funk, Soul, Fusion.... but what I find in Brainchild is a universal string, a quantum note, that evokes a transcendence over form. The magnitude can be perceived in certain discrete values. Listen to Brainchild, and you will experience the music of the Multiverse.

It seemed just waiting everytime I would wake in the middle of the night with bad dreams. I so miss those days as he passed away unexpectedly in 2010 and thought what better Birthday Present then Baklava. However as you can see it arrived a hot mess as in a big ball of mush needless to say I am beyond Disappointed.  So just FYI if I was u I would not waste my money

title: Gospel in Baltimore

text: For fans of Gospel, this is a must-have album. Jonathan Nelson has collected a group of young and talented new voices to praise God with song.  The results are uplifting as well as entertaining. Talent scouts should listen to Tai Jones on track number 10, "Speak to Me" and hear how clear and pure a voice an be. For sheer hand-clapping, foot-stomping joy, do yourself a favor and buy this album.

In a video game, as in a movie, one expects the soundtrack to complement the action, add depth and feeling to the experience. One appreciates the music, but one is focused on the gameplay. The unfortunate fact is that when your attention is drawn to the soundtrack, it's usually because the music is so horrible that it distracts you from the game. Eternal Arcadia (Skies of Arcadia in the American release) is different.

First off, the Eternal Arcadia soundtrack is beautifully composed; this is no afterthought, the music stands on its own two feet. Those who have played the game will find themselves recalling scenes and gameplay as they listen, those who have not will appreciate this CD simply because it is good music. Secondly, this is not synthesized sound. Eternal Arcadia was recorded by real people with real instruments, and it shows in the quality and feeling of the music.

From the liveliness and power of tracks like Bombardment 2 to the subdued and powerful Great Silver Temple, the light and cheery Sailor Town, the almost oriental sound of Eastern Air Pirates, and contemplative mood of Legendary Sinking Continent, Eternal Arcadia delivers one great theme after another.

This is not the album of the century. It will win no awards and will never be widely recognized. Eternal Arcadia is not groundbreaking, it is not a masterpiece; it is just a soundtrack to a relatively obscure video game. Still, what a soundtrack it is.
