title: Review by someone who has ACTUALLY SEEN THE MOVIE!

text:
I recall that prior to Episode I, Lucasfilm released a brief teaser sheet-- mocking the over-hyped, and then much-talked about GODZILLA-- that read "Plot Does Matter".
Somewhere along the line, George Lucas has forgotten this.
Of course, anyone with any objective view of the original trilogy will see that those films didn't always have a glorious, or even above average plot.  However, the stories were kept quite simple, straight-forward-- without playing down to the audience.
Episode Two, however, does.
All in all, this movie was one big foreshadowing of things we already know.
But it had, and possibly HAS the potential to be a spectacular film (we'll wait to see what deleted scenes may add to the story on the DVD).  The first half certainly could have been a thrilling political drama-- but instead, we are treated to boring, often senses-tiring sequences that serve little to no purpose, and are included only to simulate  the political thriller feel.
To me it seems that EPISODE II suffers from the same flaws that plagued FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING (although it appears I am the only person alive to have noticed ANYTHING wrong with THAT film!); if anything, this incredibly long and drawn out story would have been better served if it were even longer.
There are portions of the movie that would have almost certainly enhanced  the movie had they been explored further.  The scene in the Jedi archives comes to mind:
According to the EPISODE II GUIDE, there have only been 20 Jedi to ever leave the Order.  Dooku is the most recent.  The jedi keep statues of "The Lost 20" in the Archive chambers to remind themselves of these fallen jedi (how biblical!).  In fact, when the librarian first meets Obi-Wan, a bronze bust of Count Dooku himself can be seen directly behind her!
Other parts of the film are simply unnecessary, like the chase through the Droid Factory, or even the albeit exciting chase through Coruscant.
And what could have, SHOULD have been a very important, monumental turning point in the story--the rescue of Shmi Skywalker-- is turned into an anti-climactic footnote.  Again, it seems that much like LOTR, George Lucas is trying to cram far too much into one single story.  Of course no one complains about LOTR because it is adapted from a book...
 The inclusion of the Death Star, Uncle Owen, the Tusken Raiders, heck, even Boba Fett, are included for the sole purpose of connecting this movie to the original three.  I've heard numerous reviews that applaud Boba's scenes, but I have to admit they did nothing for me.  So what if he becomes the bounty hunter we all know and love?  Ooooh, the origin of Boba Fett-- how banal it actually was.
Don't get me wrong, the movie is exciting, thrilling and sometimes, SOMETIMES very enjoyable. But at times, only on a "coolness" level.  The last half or so was plenty entertaining, as were intermitant parts of the first.  The scenes on Kamino were especially enjoyable. Not because of the clones, but because of Obi Wan and the Kaminoans.  Again, like LOTR, the first and second halves of the film could have been two separate movies, and perhaps would have been better off if they were.
And the performances? The highlights are Ewan MacGregor and Chris Lee. Unfortunately, the usually great Sam Jackson is only good when NOT acting (ie: fighting).
Hayden Christensen is only slightly better than Jake Lloyd. Nothing against either of them-- certainly Lloyd is just a kid, and kid actors ALWAYS [stink] (I don't care what u say about Sixth Sense).  But Christiansen is simply unorganized and unable to portray such a complex character.  His performance made me wonder how this Amidala character could ever be attracted to him (or at least his personality-- but is Luke's mother that shallow?).  His tantrums, which should have been very disturbing and emotionally draining, made me laugh out loud.  They seemed to come COMPLETELY out of left field, with almost no explanation or motivation.  I was under the impression that Vader/Anakin was a tormented soul, halfway between dark and light. Only a little of that came through.  And when it did, it was not all that interested. A good drama should make the viewer care; Yes, even if we know that he becomes Vader.  After all, everyone knew how Apollo 13 would end, yet it still kept you on the edge of your seat.  If they had tried doing anything even remotely similar, the viewer would have, SHOULD HAVE thought "no anakin! Don't give in to hate!" even though you KNOW he eventually does.  So many "would have/should have's".
And Natalie Portman, a fine, possibly over-qualified actress has very little to do here. She is convincing as the love interest, but not at all as the military leader/diplomat.  And she is FAR too pretty for this role.
One could argue that EPISODE III just HAS to be good, because now all the little stuff is out of the way, and they can focus on Anakin's turn to the dark side.  But there is still a lot to cover in addition to the debut of the universe's baddest baddy: the decay of the Republic/Rise of the Empire, which surprisingly was only partially touched on here, the emergence of the Rebel Alliance (the only reason for including Jimmy Smits was as a foreshadowing), the birth & hiding of the twins, the slaughter of the Jedi, the Clone Wars (Yoda mentions that this is just the beginning)-- not all of the aforementioned can be covered in the opening scroll of part III!
I sincerely hope that George Lucas actually READS the negative reviews, so he can work harder on the next one.  But I consider my hopes dashed.


title: "Pain, suffering, death" Oh come on Yoda it wasn't that bad!

text:
"Star Wars Episode II" Wasn't bad, I really like all the parts with Obi-Wan, but all the "romance" got pretty boring and repetitive. Christensen can't really portray any emotions very well except anger.
Yes the special effects were a-mazing but that doesn't make a movie. The plot wasn't overly spectacular and I think Frank Dicaro described it best as "C-Span with lasers."
I really miss Luke Han and Leia, you know, characters you immediately like, that are intelligent and that you can relate to. There really aren't any characters like this in "Attack of the Clones," except maybe... no, no not him either. Of course then there was the acting, most of it was horrible (except when Anakin gets angry, like I said before Christensen does that pretty well) the only good actors were Samuel L. Jackson, Christopher Lee and of course Frank Oz the rest deserve a D+.
Now dispite some of the things I complained about before I will say the movie was pretty entertaining, despite the fact it lacked any kewl dialogue, you know like "Wars not make one great." And the villain wasn't nearly as kewl as Vader, even though it was Christopher Lee. But any way, this one was a lot closer to the original trilogy and had quite a few good scenes, I especially like the chase through Curocant (or however you spell it) even though the city seamed to be a visual copy of "Blade Runner" (which was a very good science fiction movie) The whole thing with Obi-Wan investigating the assassination attempts was pretty cool, I did like that part, as well as the parts with Jango Fett. And of course then there was the climactic battle. "Eat my Force Count Dooku!"
All in all the movie wasn't TOO shabby, it was probably worthy of purchasing once it comes out on DVD, and I have a lot of respect for Mr. Lucas, but I do miss the philosophical aspects of episodes IV-VI.


title: better much better

text: ok guys this is an email i wrote too a friend after i saw episode 2 well here it is oh yea it was defineatly better than episode 1 but not as much as i wanted. (hey im sorry I didn't email u I just got out of starwars. well since I wasn't dead this time watching it I will say it was better the second time around not much but better. the reason I didn't like it was because it didn't get anything done the very begining and the very end was totally different and at the end u asked yourself how did the beginning lead me here? the script was also bad and so was the lingo I mean I love you do you  love me just aint going to cut it. the movies goal was too hit important places it did that and with excellence but between that it rushed it and blobbed it. on the plus side the acting wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be the grown up anikin is so much more mature and is a better actor. Natalie portman was of course amazing and yoda stole the show. another wonderful aspect of this movie was the effects this movie was definitely the best looking movie ive ever seen it was shot on digital tape and it showed! Amazing! best look ive ever seen!!!! see it just for that. the foreshadowing of anakin was what really soled me on this movie the way u could see his emotions bobble in and out of rebellion was brilliant. ( the shadow on the wall is a gift too us from Lucas). the movie is also merely a setup it is getting us ready for episode 3 which Lucas can not AFORD TO SCREW UP. ok im sorry back too the negs the movie accomplished nothing it was like a huge theatrical trailer as soon as you saw the credits u were just now ready to start the movie. still its starwars and starwars has its own genre nothing will ever capture the heart and soul of the original serious. however episode 2 has now showed us to not totally give up on Lucas and that he still has magic up his sleeve. when the movie hit its high points which were only about three I could feel my self thinking ok now this is starwars but at the instant u thought that....... BOOM u would be pulled back under and u could just hear that jive from jar jar. that is why I give episode 2 a B.)


title: The Rise of the Empire.

text: I will keep this short. AOTC was awesome. Just saw it last night. I was totally blown away and was not expecting what I saw. It was everything that TPM wasn't. Its a complete 180 degree turn from TPM. It ties in nicely with ESB & ROTJ. You get to see the Emperor, find out a little of how Anakin turns into a machine, and the music. We get to hear Darth Vader's theme music, as well as the Emperor's, and all the great Star Wars music that was not in TPM. It makes you drool for Episode III, but I guess we will have to wait three years. I hope we get to see how Darth Vader gets his full body armor, helmet, and breathing machine. I can't wait for this movie on DVD. A+.


title: Worthy

text:
This movie was very good.  I'm not willing to declare it "great" at this point, but it was certainly worthy, and certainly far above my expectations based on my disappointment with The Phantom Menace.
Attack of the Clones has many of the same characters or their relatives as the other Star Wars movies, but it doesn't have the same feel, at least of the first two.  There is an irony in this based on the name of the movie.  This is not a clone.  The original Star Wars had no children, no overt romance, and the political implications of the Empire-rebel struggle were not well developed.  All that has changed, but Clones also gets away from being too heavily reliant on characters designed to appeal exclusively to children, like the hideous Jar Jar Binks, who makes a brief appearance in this movie only to be responsible for making a decision that essentially empowers the evil emperor.
This movie has two main story lines, the first having to do with Anakin Skywalker's raging hormones and the other having to do with the unfolding mystery that we all know leads to the rise of the Empire.  Both are predictable to the point that action scenes, while visually stunning, lack suspense.  The fall of Anakin is the less engaging of the two story lines, but it is not nearly as bad as it could have been.  Anakin gives in to love, rage, and every other teenage emotional impulse.  But what's the message?  That trying to save your mother necessarily leads to evil?  That falling in love has dire consequences?  To the extent that there is a message, it is about as developed as the politics of the original Star Wars, which is to say not very developed.
The second story line is very much a political thriller.  Though the ultimate outcome of the plot is known, the unfolding is engaging.  I especially dreaded the introduction of Jango Fett as an active villain as well as progenitor of the clones and father of Boba, however all of this was handled remarkably well.
The battle scenes in this movie are truly spectacular, and even Yoda's duel with Christopher Lee's character (Lee being almost as old as Yoda in real life, but still getting the job done as a villain) was carried off well.  On the whole I was very happy with Attack of the Clones and now look forward to the sixth and final movie much more than I looked forward to this one.


title: This will kill Lucass critics! Itll blow them away!

text:
I can't wait to see the faces of the critics of The Phantom Menace and George Lucas when Episode II comes out and powerbombs them all. Then everyone who said Lucas wasnt a genius will be proved wrong. This film fits in perfectly with the Star Wars saga like TPM.
The Phantom Meanace was the best film of the twentieth century!
Attack Of The Clones will be the best film of the twentyfirst century, (until Episode III and VII, VIII, VIIII that is)!
AOTC is much darker than TPM with many more lightsaber battles and Anakin moving towards the darkside of theforce. George Lucas again shows his genius by making the sweert and good child all true Star Wars fans loved in Episode I turn into Darth Vader. Lucas's great direction shows how Christensen turns into this tragical monster in Episode II. Christensen may give the best performance of his career here. Likewise Portman and McGregor, who look even better than in TPM (a hard feat to pull off but Lucas manages it! Well done!) and Samual L Jackson was born to play Mace Windu. Here Lucas directs Samual in his best role yet, with more fighting. People should have more faith in George Lucas, especially his fans who should know better anyway than to listen to critics, after all he is the creator of Star Wars and as fans we should appreciate and like what he creates for us. A true fan will be pleased with anything Lucas is pleased with, and Lucas is a perfectionist. Just look at TPM, it pushed the limits of technology to get the effect Lucas wanted, and I know that AOTC is no different. The specatcle will be even greater!
The trailer to AOTC is also excellent, its worth going to the cinema just to see that! You'll see highlights from the awesome film.
George Lucas has created another masterpiece here which of course people who don't get star wasrs will want to slam. But this time they wont be able to. Nobody's going to want to listent o squealing critics when they vcan go and see this awesome film with great performances, a killer cast, an epic and great story and is the best cinemantic experience since film was invented. Look forward to another perfect movie from the master himself! I can't wait for Episode III, which will be the best film of 2003 and will have the same great, classic performances, script, plot, effects and action that we've all come to expect and love from George Lucas!! It's going to be the best film you can imagine and a perfect addition to the Star Wars saga. CLASSIC STAR WARS! MATFBWY! (May the force be with you!)
And all the fans saying AOTC has an "funny title" or will be "better" than TPM had better listen up, since they seem to think that TPM was imperfect in some way and that Lucas was just working out problems so AOTC could be the greatest film. You're going to be eating huble pie when you see the whole series through and Lucas vision is fully realised. Then we'll see who the "golden, egg-laying pig-sucker" is! May the force be with you!


title: Still No Cigar

text:
Well, I'm rapidly begining to lose my patience over the 'new' Star Wars series.  The dialogue was, to put it mildly, awful.  No actor in the world can improve a poorly written piece of dialogue.  The love story was simply not believable.  This movie is a classic example of what happens when a movie is worked over so hard that there's no spontaneity left to enjoy.  Sure, the special effects are wonderful, but when will Hollywood learn that it's the story that impresses sci-fi fans, and the effects are just icing on the cake.
They say you can't capture lightning in a bottle twice.  That's not true, if you stick to what worked the first time.  Star Trek is a good example.  Both the old and Next Gen series are fine examples of sci-fi, despite the terrible special effects in the original series.
Episodes IV and V worked because they told a simple story of good vs. evil.  Now the story is lost among numerous plot twists and endless details.  You can have a movie that uses expository dialogue to great effect, or you can have an action movie.  You can't have both.  Star Wars doesn't need to be this complicated.
But Thank God Jar Jar only does a cameo.


title: the best..so far

text: Episode II makes every episode in the series look like a joke. The most visually exciting film i've seen in a very long time , and the most intense. The Phantom Menace was good , but was nothing more than a setup for things to come making it the less interesting of the series. Fans will not be dissapointed , especially those feeling bummed after Phantom Menace.


title: It's Going To Be Even Better Than Episode 1!

text: "Star Wars Episode II" will be even better than "The Phantom Menace." The storyline will be much darker than "TPM" and will be similar to "The Empire Strikes Back." Jar Jar has a very brief role- Yay! I don't even have to recommend this movie, since everyone is going to see it anyway. I know the story line for "Episode 2" and "Episode 3" but I dare not say it here.


title: BETTER THAN ANY OTHER STAR WARS MOVIE!

text:
Star Wars Episode II is probably the best Star Wars movie yet.  Sure the love scenes were bad but Lucas said this one would be the most painful one because of the love scenes but the action scenes more than made up for the love scenes.  Now that I think of it this is probably a SCI-FI Comedy because when Yoda was fighting nearly all the veiwers were laughing!.
The Jango Vs. Obi-Wan fight was brilliant! so was the speeder chase!  The monsters were brilliantly designed and all the special effect shots turned out brilliantly.  My fav scene was when Padme, Ani, C-3PO and R2-D2 were in the droid factory! that bit was brilliant but i've heard some of the deleted scenes like when Ani meets Padme's family and and extended droid factory scene were Yoda is fighting the super battle droids.  I can't wait for D.V.D and i've heard it will be coming out in fall 2002!
The next film will be even better.  I can't wait for the Obi-Wan Vs. Ani/Darth Vader fight I hope Yoda will make an appearence in that fight!


title: Great Classic Band!

text: The Doobies have always been an outstanding band. All of their hits are on this album. While traveling, this CD is great to listen to especially if local radio isn’t available.


title: A Great Movie. Just Don't Try to Compare it to the Trilogy

text: Thank God that we have The Attack of the Clones to save Star Wars from that 7-12 year old type movie The Phantom Menace. No more of Jar Jar who helped destroy TPM along with terrible acting and storyline. Isn't it weird that just now people are starting to say how much the Phantom Menace [stank]? George Lucas can even start to barely admit it was not that great. Yet they will argue that it set a record for the box office and was very successful. However, after 2 days after the Phantom Menace was released, I went to see it and it was less than half full. I wonder why? After 4 days of the release of AOTC, the theaters are still packed. Maybe Lucas began to realize that special effects don't make a great movie. The<br />  The ending was great in AOTC. The acting was better, but a little shaky on Anakin's part sometimes. The ending was slow and the love scenes at some times quite laughable. If it weren't for the beginning, it would have been a even greater movie. The effects were amazing and also the way the did Yoda throughout the movie. The one thing that never has gone wrong is the music. John Williams is a master and will continue to do nothing but help star wars. Only one thing, don't compare it to the Trilogy especially The Empire Strikes Back. Sure you might see some polls that rate AOTC as the best star wars movie ever (starwars website)  but that is just the biggest bunch of [junk]. AOTC is a good movie but doesn't hold a candle to the Trilogy. In the Trilogy you have better acting, better story, better screenplay etc. The only thing that is better in AOTC is the special effects. Take your pick on which combination you would like to have. George Lucas is a good story writer and good directer, but if you want the ultimate movie get back Irvin Kershner (ESB) as a director.


title: 2 and 1/2 hours of trite, mish mosh but SFX are great!

text:
25 years ago George Lucas began a phenomena called Star Wars. The 1977 movie spawned two quick sequels and moved Lucas' ILM(Industrial Light and Magic) into the movie effects forefront. 16 years pass and Lucas takes another stab at the Star Wars mythos with Phantom Menace. Gone are the characters you cheered for in the first films replaced by flat, boring, and nondescript rags of characters. The enthralling plots and endearing characters were gone so Lucas decided to overcompensate by giving us a chunk of eyecandy without the things that truly make a good movie.
  ATOC is a step ahead of the ramshackle film that was PHANTOM but the plot is still sketchy and the actors are worse. The lightheartedness of the first trilogy is replaced with cheesy dialog. Hayden Christiansen is gawd-awful babbeling like Forrest Gump at times. Lucas himself seems to be caught up in making the movie digitally as opposed to true content. ILM has enough clients already George you don't have to put together a 2 and 1/2 hour ad for your company.
The epic storyline/space opera from the original trilogy is gone what remains is an undeveloped endless wave of characters and a mish mosh of tidbits to suck in old school fans. Don't get me wrong I loved the effects in the movie,as always ILM is top notch. The movie is just too slow no REAL action occurs until the last 1/2 hour of the movie.

My biggest disappointment is YODA. ATOC has the dislexic little green man speaking eloquently and jumping around like a extra for a kung-fu scene in the new MATRIX film. UhGGHHHH! Bring back the Yoda puppet!


title: Wonderful CD

text: I think this is a wonderful CD.  We use it all the time at my school,and it helps the children feel connected to one another. Great "brain smart start" to any young child's school day.  Teaches about school routines and helps kids feel like they are part of the "school family".  I recommend this CD to any school with 3 to 7 year olds.  "Awesome"


title: Reconnecting

text: It seems like forever ago that I first heard this CD, my Papa had gotten it with his truck when I was a child.  I loved it, thought that it was great current artists were not butchering classics.  I eventually absorbed the CD into my collection which was stolen along with my car 8 years ago.  I couldn't remember the actual title of the CD, and finally a couple months ago it came to me to search "AT & T presents" on Amazon where I can find just about anything and there it was.  My Papa was also glad to have a copy of this CD again.  I highly recommend it as Joni Mitchell, Gwen Stefani, and Stevie Nicks particularly shine.  There is a little gem from Sandra Berhardt and Bjork, respectively as well.


The item came promptly, was in good condition and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to it. Being able to get my hands on it was great as I have long loved the movie.


title: Amazing Voice

text: Matt Caplan has such an amazing voice and on this album, he really shows it. My favorite songs are: Change Your Mind, Oblivion, In Between, Look Alive, Autograph, Europe and Feedback. He just writes songs about wonderful topics, has great rhythm and an he is just a nice guy. I love Matt Caplan.


title: Nice packaging, sounds good

text: Bought this for my teenager that likes Japanese video game music. Thought it good deal for the music for the three games. Hard to find otherwise. Not my type of music, but my other son (14 years old) said it was really good.


title: Se necesitan los individuales en CD!

text: Este CD junta "lo mejor" de cuatro conciertos, 1,2,3 y 4, pero ya es necesario que saquen cada concierto individualmente en CD; en realidad cuesta mucho sacar 'lo mejor' de ellos, pues cada concierto en si es 'DE LO MEJOR'


title: Good gift

text: This was a gift from a family member for Christmas. Early gift 🤔🤪. Either way it came with everything. Pulled my bias and bias wrecker. 🦊🐰

title: Terrible

text: The songs were not the songs on the original cd. Very disappointed


title: Great Music -- Less Than Great Recording

text: What can I say, this is a really nice album of the Band post-Robbie (Cate brothers on guitar and covering on drums shwn Levon plays mandolin)-- in Tokyo. Levon especially loved his visits to Tokyo (just take a listen to Move To Japan" on the Jericho CD) and it was Levon who proposed going back there since the Japanese teens adored them!! The music is pure Band bliss but the recording leaves a lot to be desired.  This sounds like it was air-recorded on good equipment rather than mixed down from a multi-track recording.  For an air-recording (if that's what it is) it's pretty good, but falls far short of what it could have been as a result.  If this IS a mix-down off a master captured at the source, then it was done on poor equipment ...or had some filtration/other issues.  It's not that it's not enjoyable -- it is -- it's the Band!!  It's just not what it could have been -- a distinct cut below -- beacuse of how it was recorded, and for that I have to give it only four stars when I consider all the other excellent Band recordings out there ...unfortunately this is the only one from the Tokyo event and I just had to have it anyway ;-)


title: Meditation CD Set

text: Love, this CD and use it most days for my meditation practice.  I have other CD, but this one is just right for my needs.


title: When you need a good laugh!

text: "Nuts From A Blind Squirrel" is an absolute delight. Brian is a natural storyteller, and his enthusiasm for relating his tales is hard to miss. It's rare to find a talented writer with such a knack for the spoken word. I've had my CD for months and it never fails to entertain me. Each time I listen, I find something new to ponder or to laugh about. I can't decide which story is my favorite. I love 'em all! Brian has a great web site, The Tailwheeler's Journal, where you can read more of his stories. There are also a number of excellent videos he produced which are featured on the site. I'd recommend "Nuts From a Blind Squirrel" to anyone. Pilots and non-pilots alike will enjoy this compilation. It's the only CD I reach for when I need a good laugh!


title: Five Stars

title: Gloria Estefan: Back!

text: Very good Estefan's album. Since 2003, when it was released Unwrapped, do not go for a new album in English. "Miss Little Havana" is similar to the album "gloria!" (1998), with latin rhythms and dance music. Worth mentioning the songs "Miss Little Havana", "WEPA" "Medicine"; "Hotel Nacional" and "Make My Heart Go". This edition "Target Exclusive" contains bonus tracks: "WEPA" (R3hab remix featuring Pittbull) and "Let's Get Loud". No doubt a good CD .... but not comparable to the "gloria!" 1998.

title: Why don't they play Allstars in Canada?

text: I was very intrigued about Allstars, since we do not hear about them at all in Canada. I took a guess and ordered that single, along with all the rest of their singles... I was not disappointed at all! That song is very catchy, mid-tempo with quite simple vocals. I don't believe that this group really cuts it on the vocal department, but they are doing okay and they certainly make up with the looks and personalities! The five singers look gorgeous in the video and the video itself is very interesting. Allstars bring a new energy to the pop musical scene, which unfortunately, we do not get much of in North America... I also got to see a preview of their TV show, which seems to be funny as hell! May Allstars know all the success that they deserve!

text: This CD has the best sound quality at a great price very difficult to locate Nashville Teens have earned a place in Music History even with being off the mainstream of music artists


title: ANTHOLOGY 1 - MAINLY FOR BEATLES FANS AND COLLECTORS ONLY

text:
It's interesting reading other reviews of this album. I get the impression that some people expected more of it than they got.  This album is in fact an archeological dig into the Beatles'  other unreleased recorded works and a retracing of their early history. It's not a "Hits" compilation..Go to "1", "1962-66" & "1967-70" if you want that. Instead, what we find here are early demos, live recordings, a failed Audition with Decca (who have probably kicked themselves up the butt every day since January 1 '62), alternate takes, works in progress, unreleased finished recordings and television & radio performances. For a huge fan like myself, this is a treasure trove especially listening to the development of the lads as musicians and performers through the years 1958-1964 which is the period covered in this volume. Yeah the early, scratchily recorded stuff may sound like crap in parts but, putting things in perspective, these guys were 16-18 year olds cutting their teeth on Elvis, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Buddy Holly, Carl Perkins etc. How many of these types of bands  sounded great at their first rehearsals especially recorded on such primitive equipment? I think any fan disppointment can be waived here! Besides they are a pointer to what was to follow, particularly with the inclusion and first release of "In Spite Of All The Danger", the first original Beatles song to be recorded.
The alternate versions really are worth a listen. The acapella intro to "Eight Days A Week" I think is possibly better than the released verison. "Leave My Kitten Alone" could have been a "Beatles For Sale" track. "One After 909" is really interesting in comparison to the released '69 version. The development of songs is the important thing here. There is also the dispelling of myths that the Beatles weren't that good playing live in concert... the Swedish TV performances are quite energetic especially when they could hear themselves play in the early days of Beatlemania. The TV segment with England's briiliant and much loved comedy duo, Morecambe And Wise, is a joy to listen to and even better if you watch it on the DVD. The Beatles hold their own here comedically with 2 very seasoned veterans and the results are really quite funny.
Here was a hungry young band  of 4 working class guys clawing their way to the top, doing what they loved doing. The screaming girls alone only serve as a reminder of what those times and their music meant to a lot of us growing up with the Beatles.
The release of "Free As A Bird" was much anticipated and it represents the first time that George is given equal lead vocal time on a Beatle track with John And Paul. The track is I think quite strong though it did take a couple of listens to get used to the sound quality. But it's typical Beatles fare that picks up where "Abbey Road" left off. I get chills every time I hear George's slide guitar kick in and it's beautifully tied in with very "Beatlish" 3-part harmonies.
Overall this is not the place to start if you're a young person just getting into the Beatles. The album is really quite enjoyable when you take it for what it's meant to be...a great insight into the Beatles at work.

text: Russian pop techno dance brilliance!!!  Not a bad song on this album.  Love the whole thing from start to finish.

text: Worth every penny. Arrived much earlier than expected. Unique poster is cool too.


title: Uchida's recording of Mozart sonatas

text: These recordings, in fine digital sound, have been praised for some time, and it's easy to see why.  Uchida is a very thoughtful and understanding artist who can shape the phrases superbly without sounding mannered.  Her approach to the sonatas seems to picture Mozart in his "inner" mode, rarely becoming extrovert, composing these mainly for himself.  As a result, these are best taken in small doses because of the quiet intensity of the music, but the performances are uniformly excellent.


title: Very pleased

text: Loved it -- just what I wanted.


title: Love it, listen to it every time we get ...

text: Love it, listen to it every time we get a chance.  This is the best recording of the Rat Pack with solos by each.  Great orchestration - full sound.  Twenty-one songs.  This is a keeper, a new Christmas tradition.  Came wrapped well within a week of ordering.


title: Classical Classics In Pop & Swing

text: This fine collection features pop, swing & jazz interpretations of classical music themes....from an outstanding lineup of all-time greats. Art Tatum, Tommy & Jimmy Dorsey, Connee Boswell, Bea Wain with Larry Clinton, Guy Lombardo, Charlie Barnet, and many others...including a young Frank Sinatra. Retrospective, as usual, does a great job with their discography and liner notes.


title: Great Old CD Of Earl Hines Classics

text: There have been very few CD releases of the then-popular Earl Hines Orchestra of 1939-1942 on Victor Records, despite that band having some pretty major hit records, and that this edition of Hines' band introduced vocalist Billy Eckstine to the record buying public. Despite being released in the late 1980's, this disc sounds excellent, and provides a nice selection of the band's recordings, plus some great Hines piano solos.


title: I love the songs from World War II

text: This is, without a doubt, one of my very favorites!  I love the songs from World War II.


title: Traditional choir anthems

text: We purchased this CD because of the title track.  We wanted a rendition with organ accompaniment, rare to nonexistent on CD.  The skill of the performers cannot be faulted but the technical quality of the recording is less than ideal.  We are happy to have added this recording to our personal collection.  We would not recommend as being of high quality for those who desire highest fidelity. This recording could be a disappointment.


title: A trip down memory lane

text: For anyone over 50 whose parents were fans of Lulubelle and Scotty, this CD is priceless.  It has more of their music than most sane people would enjoy, but for those of us who grew up hearing the old vinyl records it is definitely worthwhile.


title: Good introduction to Beverly Sills' art

text:
Beverly Sills was a lyric coloratura soprano who enjoyed a long distinguished career at the New York City Opera. Her bright shimmering voice made her an ideal interpreter of Zerbinetta and the Queen of the Night but she also tackled heavier roles like Anna Bolena, Elisabetta, Maria Stuarda, Lucrezia Borgia and even Norma. Let's take a look at the cuts.

  "Vorrei Spiegarvi o Dio" Her voice has a sharp crystal quality. She caresses the phrases spinning gorgeous pianissimos and sparkling high notes.

  Marten Aller Arten from "Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail." She displays clean runs, high notes and trills. An occasional harsh note appears but not a critical problem. I wish she would have included the cadenza after the first verse though.

  Ruhe sanft, mein holdes Leben from "Zaide." A beautiful aria smoothly sung.

  Amor and Breit uber mein Haupt from "Brentano Lieder." Two beautiful art songs sung with sunny warmth and shimmering polsih.

  Daphne, a magnificent opera with gorgeous melodies and superb orchestration. One is left wishing Sills had put it in her repretiore. Her interpretation of the transformation scene is up there with Hilde Guden and Lucia Popp's.

  So all in all, this is a great album. If you're just discovering Beverly Sills, this would be a good place to start your collection.


title: Five Stars

text: Timely and new.


title: Crummy

text: Very few songs I recognized.  Returned.


title: Huge disappointment

text: First of all, my copy was very badly produced.  If it had been vinyl, I'd say it was skipping.  I don't know if others had this problem.  Secondly, the parts of songs I could hear were very rushed and had none of the lush, emotional qualities I'd come to expect after listening to Peter Hollens' Legendary Vocals on Facebook.  The CD was a huge disappointment!


title: Wonderful Origin Story

text:
Isabel Allende gave the world a wonderful origin story for the legend of Zorro. Yes, I grew up with the black and white TV show and have enjoyed the various movies. But this story was the first tale that gave Zorro true seriousness. This tale opens in the 1790s with the meeting of Diego de la Vega's parents, Alejandro de la Vega and Toypurnia (a warrior for one of the local Native American tribes). Toypurnia is injured in an attack on Padre Mendoza's mission and while recuperating, Alejandro befriends her. Toypurnia becomes a lady in waiting to a family friend of the de la Vegas and is renamed Regina. Shortly thereafter, Alejandro proposes marriage.

This riveting tale continues on from there with the birth of Diego and his antics as a boy. His milk brother (so called because they were both breast fed by the same woman) Bernado, a full blooded Native American, was born in the same week. An antic with a bear particularly stood out for me. The book then takes a more serious turn when pirates attack this California coastal village, leaving a few dead and many scarred for life. As Diego and Bernado become young men, they have an opportunity to go off to Catalan-speaking Spain to allow Diego to polish off his schooling. The antics continue, including performance in a gypsy circus, sword-training by a master of a secret society, and young love.  While I won't spoil anymore of the plot line, just know there are plenty more surprises in store in this book as Diego and Bernado make their way back to California.


title: they were pretty good, weren't they?

text: i never liked supertramp when they were around, but recently i couldn't get "dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer, can you put your hands in your head, oh no" out of my head, and in a wild moment of madness  bought this best of. don't tell anyone i said this, but... it's actually  pretty good. a ton of great songs you never knew were by supertramp, and  some album tracks that make for some fairly instant toe-tapping. there is  one track, though, right at the end, which seems to be some kind of reunion  effort. they should definitely have left well enough alone. i managed to  clear my head of "dreamer" -- now i can't get "you're  bloody-well right" out of my head.


title: Ok, Oceania I is better.

text: Not as nice as Oceania I. Ok. My Oceania I CD was cracked on delivery. But I was in hospital and wasn't able to relate to before the return window closed. Very disappointed.


title: jazzy!

text: Vassilis Lekkas is famous in Greece, worked with Hatzidakis, Theodorakis, Mikroutzikos and much more. But he always was openminded, and this album, his latest, is in a way a kind of jazz-greek-folk. Very special and very up to date! If greek music lovers are looking for something different, not the mainstreem you can get everywhere, they will be satisfied with this pearl!!


title: Hilarious. . . If You Are English

text: My dad is English and grew up with this radio program. At 76, it was a perfect gift and was much appreciated.


title: One Star

text: GREAT MIX OF SONGS, BUT THEY'RE ONLE 3 MINUTES LONG!!


title: Best option for quick and dirty Japanese

text: This is the only product that I have used that will have you ordering food and getting directions in Japanese in under a week.  The insistent repetition method really works.  I found myself spontaneously remembering phrases that I had tried to learn in the past.  Earworms is is bar none the best option for the unserious student of Japanese, and should be considered by anyone who is trying to learn this language.


title: Five Stars

text: excellent


title: did not like the 101 play the blues.

text: I have not listened to such a poor recording by the 101 strings.  Any ones guess if it was  bad recording or cd was not good.  bob


title: Rush Revere Time Travel adventures great for Summer activities.

text: DVDs were new, sealed and in perfect condition. I bought for my grandkids summer visit. They were so excited to hear the next chapter every night. It's very well done, informative yet keeps the interest of ~10 year olds. Also it's true American history, not political..just the facts in a fascinating way.


title: If you love the Statlers, this is a must buy!

text: This is my favorite Christmas music album of all time! You just can't go wrong with the Statler Brothers!


title: Missing the words.

text: I was very disappointed that the words were not included on the insert.  They are usually on the insert but this had none.  I really wanted the words also!


title: All Your Favorites

text: This is a wonderful collection. Most of them are old favorites. I can listen to this over and over, there are so many different melodies you never get tired of them.


title: Old World Bellydancing

text: If you like the more traditional, ethnic bellydance music, this is the album to have. It doesn't have the modern, jazzy stuff, but is the real original "womens dance". This album was recommended to me in the 1980's!


title: Perfect

text: I finally got Chatshire and it's all I expected and more. I mean, it doesn't contain much, but the quality is great, the photos are gorgeous, the CD sound is fine and IU did perfect. And it does contain a song I didn't know, the last track I never saw on Spotify


title: Good

text: I received it in good condition. The content of the album is, of course, beautiful. This is one of the albums that I wanted the most and I was not disappointed. In fact, the photos are some of my all time favourites, I love the simple format of the photobook.


title: Five Stars

text: Nothing to add


title: Great for little kids!

text: Great way to teach your kids Bible verses that really apply to their lives! When a situation comes up I can remind them of one of these songs and how the Bible says we should act.


title: fast shipping

text: no poster :( but the album came really fast!!!


title: Awesome album

text: I love this album ! Amazing covers-especially like the country covers, however,  I’ve heard You Look Wonderful Tonight for years, but something in the way Ronnie does it, I’ve absolutely fallen in love with it


title: great songs

text: These are the ones I remember.  I play it in my car.  Brings back old memories.  If you are from the 50's you will enjoy this CD.


title: Purchased for my Alzheimers Mom

text: My Mom absolutely loves this music.  I discovered it by accident.  It apparently sparked something in her memory, and she actually sings to most of the songs.  I have never heard her sing before.  She cannot do much, so this is such a joy for her and for the others at her personal care home.


title: R.I.P. Prodigy!

text: This is hip hop, so raw, so talented. This is the gritty musics that real hip hop heads need to hear. I wish you were here to continue enjoying life and making good music.


title: Thinking and Hilarious

text: Jim Short is one of the smartest and most hilarious guys you will ever come across. Never pass up an opportunity to go see him and get a copy of his stuff!


title: Poor editing hampers stellar performance and recording

text: Andras Schiff performs the Goldberg Variations impeccably. The recording is very decent — the restorative process must have been monumental. Which is why I am astounded that the editing was left up to oafs. The variations are split into 5-variation tracks. While the transition within each of the 5 variations are sublime, as they are carried out by Andras Schiff himself, without the involvement of the editors. The transitions between each of the segments is another story (and it’s a sad one). There are literally seconds of music, that amount to half a sheet of copious notes, that are abruptly missing from the conclusion of the 5th variation, as the first segmental transition takes place, with the start of the 6th variation interrupting the conclusion of the 5th.


title: Power of Words!

text: When you actually listen to the words in music they make you think, enjoyed this album very much.


title: Still the best performance

text: After listening to three or four other recordings, I have a new appreciation for the Philadelphia First Chair players for their musical and cultural understanding of this work.  This sensitive performance not only makes sense and beauty out of each strange interval, but it also sets the piece within the context of traditional Viennese music, out of which Schoenberg's modernism first emerged.


title: spectacular performances, 18th century music

text: Piguet was able to make the baroque oboe sound full and resonant, with a timbre that is at times soft and flute-like, and at times bright and brassy like the instrument's Middle-Eastern ancestors.  I've never heard such versatility in tone from any other player of this instrument.  Having been taught to keep phrasing, articulation, and ornamentation consistent,  I at first noticed numerous inconsistencies within given movements.  However, the end results suggest virtuosic improvisation and are probably more authentic than what I had learned.  Beyond that, the elegant balance of notation and ornament evokes the Rococo courts where these pieces were first performed.  My favorite baroque oboe recording across decades --  wish it could be reissued as a cd!


title: Best performance of Paganini Concerto No. 1

text: I've heard numerous performers recordings of the Paganini Concerto No. 1 over the years but none surpassed Michael Rabin's which I owned on vinyl.  The vinyl was getting worn and noisy so I searched for a CD recording of his performance and it was difficult to find anywhere except through Japanese seller on Amazon.  Received the CD on time and its superb! The original recording was analog so the conversion has a slight amount of hiss but the dynamic range and low distortion equals or surpasses the LP version.


title: Unmatched Jackie Gleason Orchestra at its best!

text: No one makes better orchestral love song music than Jackie Gleason, and this is one of his best albums.


title: Wonderful collection of uniquely Johnny Douglas show tunes

text: The orchestration and choral arrangements are uniquely beautiful and fun.

text: A lot of beautiful/sexy Julie London sound.

title: 1975

text: I am a teen of the 70's and these are the songs that I remember from the time period.  Sound quality was great.

title: Five Stars

text: Outstanding CD to me it could make someone who isn't Irish wish they were


title: Great listening but bad packaging arrived damaged to case

text: Product is perfect for the concert but the product arrived damaged as the case was crushed.  CD was okay however


title: Outstanding

text: Not only is this album everthing that I was expecting, it was more! The music is outstanding - quiet, relaxing, inviting. I wasn't sure what to make of the [EXPLICIT LYRICS] comment after the title. But I soon found out as I was listening to this album that they are explicit in conveying the salvation message. Again outstanding. My thanks to the artist for providing an excellent tool to reach those in need of His mercy and love.


title: Great release, want to hear more.

text: Musicianship is superb, touches of organ and accordion show great emotions. The lyrics are thoughtful and relatable, Steve’s vocals and piano are smooth through out the disc. And Sonny Landreth helps out on 2 pieces. Take your time and several play’s to hear a really nice disc, well worth the purchase. Go for it !


title: Excellent "World Music"

text: I had this album some years ago and was please to find it again. Joaquin Lievano shines on "Carnival Rhumba".

text: Did not contain the second record.  Only one was delivered.

title: Like

text: Great music


title: Aespa Savage Album

text: The CD came in great quality and as described. Love the posters and photo cards.


title: Half good. Literally.

text: I aquired this CD for reinforcing Spanish vocabulary. The woman that sings the Spanish songs does a good job and my children enjoy listening. As for the woman singing the songs in English, she has the most nasal voice I have ever heard in my life. I've almost broken my foot running to my stereo to fast-forward through the English songs! An intolerably bad voice. I recommend getting the CD, then burning yourself a copy MINUS the English half of the disk. That's what I've done.


By looking at the album cover alone one can see the Genesis influence, being reminiscent of the early cover art.  This Italian progressive band has put together some excellent songs displaying early prog influence.  Highly recommended for the prog rock lover.


Originally released in 2004, this remastering has taken a very good group of songs and made it better. This is a concept album about a Spitfire shot down in WWII and the experience of that fighter.  The music and the story go well together.  To me, this album (their fourth) truly began what is a series of fine recordings.

 Proving prog rock is alive and well, Big Big Train continues to release fantastic music, and is in the studio in 2015 to produce and EP.  I would not only highly recommend this album, but the Underfall Yard and the English Electric albums as well.  A great mix of prog melodies and rock that is helping to bring about the great progressive rock resurgence that has occured over the last 10 years or so.


title: Love Supertramp, you'll love this album

text: Lot's of classics, but the # 1 reason I got it was to get my own copy of the Another Man's Woman Live in the Royal Albert Hall. Very much worth it.


title: magnanimously unique

text:
Shon Lock is his own.
Was, at one point, one of the back-up singers/dancers for Toby Mac. I met him after the show and in talking with him for about 30 minutes it was clear what his heart is after.
He's a spunky and quirky guy, and his music definitely portrays this.
This CD is not your typical  hip-hop, R&B or rap CD. I honestly don't know what to categorize it as.  It's funky mix of beats put to heartfelt lyrics. From this CD I can hear that Shon aspires to give a message to music so unusual, people can't help but listen.

title: I recommend it.

text: Great recording. An excellent publication. A gem for any collection of rock classics.


title: Lush Musical Soundscape, Great Recording

text: Very rich and musical New Age music.  Bartz is a gifted composer, player and engineer - if you enjoy instrumental music that does not rely on standard 4/4 and a catchy riff to make a tune, you might like the drifting, rich, but solid fare offered here.

title: but this is far better as the albums are recorded from the original tapes ...

text: I adore this album, but I should say albums, as I did not know there were two included.  I have the original vinyl record and intended to buy a  phonograph to digitize it to my computer, but this is far better as the albums are recorded from the original tapes so there is no popping or cracking.  I cannot begin to tell you how pleased I am.  Morton Gould  was one of the greatest music arrangers of his day.  Thanks so much.


title: A Blast from the Past

text: This tune came out in the late 90's when I was in Germany.  It was fun to drive on the Autobahn with "Rock Your Body" blaring.  Fun times.  That said, I was very pleased with the merchant who sold me this CD.  Fast shipping, CD in great condition.  I am a happy camper.

text: Wonderful revival of the underrated Broadway show by Bock and Harnick.  Some of the reassigned songs suggest a stronger book this time around. The wife's role expanded in musical numbers and dramatic power suggests the show is more balanced with Mayer and Gutele.


title: When will it be released on CD?

text: A great recording by London label. They commissioned an orchestration just for the recording, only a piano combo in the theatre. When will it come out on CD?  Some lovely songs.


title: Four Stars

text: Really enjoying the songs and sharing them with my English language learners at church!


title: This is not a SACD

text: I got this under the impression that i would be getting a SACD as it states in the description. However after receiving it and putting in my player i find out its not even a SACD. Waste of money as i already have all the songs on the disc. I just wanted to hear them in SACD format.


title: Five Stars

text: Super delivery and excellent.  I LOVE this CD!!!  It relaxes me like no other.  Throughout the years I’ve purchased no less than 10 for both my car and best friends for gifts.  As an Educator (college) I play it for background music while students, in groups, create collages based on human needs arrived at from Psychologist, Abraham Maslow, PhD.  Yes, an ex boyfriend and I did in fact stumble into the multi SET....but THIS is the one cd among the collection we lost our minds about...and seriously debated at time of breakup WHO gets to keep ‘Atlantic blue’!!!  A dream come true would be having an opportunity to actually meet these amazing musicians and creator of this masterpiece.  Thx, Amazon!!!!!!!

title: DEUTSCHE MUSICALS-das Beste is "ausgezeichnet."

text:
In November 2013 we founded a new German Club in the Johnson City Senior Center, Johnson City, Tennessee, USA.  Our members are between 50 and 90 years old.  Everyone is Welcome!  One is never too young and never to old, to learn
languages and cultures.  Who are we?  We are teachers, managers, veterans, engineers, technicians business people, and the like. We believe that all people can remain young if they learn and teach foreign languages and cultures.  Knowledge of languages and cultures improves the lives of all people on the entire earth.

In October 2014 my wife and I visited Helen, Georgia, USA for the first time.  It is only a short trip from Helen, GA to Cleveland, GA.  There is a small room with various things at up to 70% off (discount).  Their catalog comes to the house.Alpenland International, Inc., 67 Alpenland Drive, PO Box 1699, Cleveland, GA 30528, T: 800.644.2577, 706.219.0256, www.alpenland.us. We bought Deutsche Musicals-das Beste on sale for only $3.95.

Since then we have been finding the German & English lyrics on the internet.  I copy, paste, and format the lyrics with full citations of the sources.  At each meeting we play the Deutsche Musicals-das Beste discs and (1) listen, (2) sing, (3) learn, & (4) have fun.  The songs are sung slowly, clearly, and beautifully.  We started with Disk 1, Song 1 by Udo Juergens: "Ich war noch niemals in New York."

Everyone is asking how to buy their own copy.  I said that AMAZON probably has it for sale.  WOW!  Here it is, too!  Even if you are not studying GERMAN, I recommend this 2-CD set because of its high quality and very reasonable price.  People love OPERA, which is often sung in languages foreign to the world's listeners.  I will copy this (my AMAZON review) into next week's GERMAN CLUB meeting minutes.  If I could award 6 STARS, I would.  This 2-CD set is WUNDERBAR!


title: Gimme Some Love Right Here

text: Alexander and Crew have done it again.  It's quickly becoming one of my favorite BWO tunes.


title: relaxing for me

text: happy with the sound


title: A great surprise

text: This is one of those albums I keep coming back to and I love it every time.  I saw them live several years ago just knowing they were some band from the area (Iowa) that was supposed to be pretty good and I was blown away.  Their sound was not like anything I had heard before.  The singer, Evelyn Davis, has this untamed passionate voice that has so much feeling and soul behind it.  They (or maybe just the singer) are now called Sword of Exactly but I don't think they have released anything new in quite some time.  They are one that I wish was still playing and I really miss their sound.

title: Great Cd

text: If you like Ronnie Dunn and old classic songs you'll love this<br />CD as much as I do. Doesn't get any better.


title: Good CDs

text: Good interpretation of Orff's famous composition; it seems not quite as polished are other versions. In my opinion, the better of the two CDs is the one with the original medieval songs. The voices and instruments are very good. Realize, though, that I really, really like medieval music. If you're lukewarm to this genre, you may find it a bit too authentic.

text: Perfectly picked compilation of Rick Springfields greatest hits. Definitely takes you back to the 80s with every song. This CD is even cleaner listening then my records from back in the day. Great Music!

title: Works with my TCL Roku 50s535 tv set

text:
This works fine with my new TCL Roku 50s535 tv set. However, the RED cable is the "video IN" on this set. White & Yellow are the respective Left and Right audio inputs to the tv set. Same on my basement TCL Roku 43s421 tv set.

So, feel free to order this adapter if you have one of the TCL Roku tv's, as it'll work just fine if you use my wiring info above! Those tv sets do NOT come with the cable, and you need it if you still want to hook up an old vcr, or something like that.

text: Great Srtist. Great CD.


title: Old school music

text: Good


title: Great

text: I still can't believe this arrived as described/shown considering it's 18 years old and still plays great. Thank you very much!


title: "The Whole Magilla"

text: If you really like Jim Reeves, and want a collection of everything he recorded this is it.  It's the definitive collection of his works, from the early days with Abbot Records right on through the recordings he made that Mary Reeves slowly released after his death with timely backgrounds.  With the exception of several demos, this covers it all - every demo, commercials with Mary Carter Paints, you name it.  There are a few tracks you probably won't play more than once, but it's nice to know you have it all.


title: Essential Jazz Music!

text: Outstanding! Everything from this group is fantastic!


title: Mad Music to the Max

text: fantastic music, from Carla Thomas to The Mad Lads...end to end


title: This CD is Hot

text:
This has got to be one of the top CDs so far this year.
Doug Beavers put together some awesome music for this CD.
You will not be disappointed.


title: I was part of this project too!

text: Haha Dude Me too, my song was called Joy, Lord where are they now 12 years ago and $13.20 of royalty lol.


title: Beyond the Mist

text: I've been following Robin by getting his music since the mid seventies. I really love this guys stuff because he very rarely does a cover and keeps putting out finely crafted music and new melodies. Never a disappointment. Looking forward to your next Robin.


title: Lush and Sophisticated

text: What a treat it has been to discover Isabel Rose! Her lush vocals and hip arrangements of songs like "Hit Me with Your Best Shot" and "Thirteen Men" make listening to this CD an absolute delight. I am looking forward to more from this incredibly talented woman.


title: extremely warped record

text: ordered this 3 vinyl album. two of them are ok, little scratched but work fine. but one of them is extremely warped, absolutely unplayable. just think i wouldnt send out an item that damaged and still charge for it... not cool


title: Malone's best yet.

text: This woman, her band and fellow musicians, and her music are some of the very best there are. Her current album 'Slings & Arrows' is a terrific addition to an amazing catalog. Malone is a wonderful guitarist, thoughtful lyricist, and world class singer. Her live shows are among the very best I have ever been to in my 50+ years of concert going. She is a charismatic performer who communicates with her audience. This live recording brings the wonder of Michelle Malone to the listener.


title: Great tunes, Bad scratches

text: Only thing I didn't like was that both CD's were scratched so badly I had to take them to be buffed out in a CD shop.  Cost me an extra $4 a CD.  Wouldn't buy from this company again


title: Good quality

text: I enjoy having the Quran on one disk


title: Love this product

text:
Love this product... it motivates me and my team every time we listen to this.
This is perfect give away to all networkers out there. My team is on fire because of this.
For the people who just start there network marketing career you should get one, you will absolutely like it.
I guarantee.

title: The WORST RECORDING EVER! Buy a Megaforce pressing!

text:
Take my advice and do NOT buy this version of RTL. It may be halfspeed mastered and on 180 gram vinyl at 45 speed but that is no guarantee that it will sound good. The craze of vinyl has overwhelmed the companies that produce these records. First, the copy I got is warped. Couple that with the 45 speed and my tone arm jumps off one of the records. Only if I apply about 8 grams to it will it play, and I'm not doing that. But it's the quality of sound that just sucks. I see a lot of revues that say this album sounds great and either these people have really bad ears, really bad equipment that they think is good or worse yet, both. I have the original 'Megaforce" pressing of this album and I promise you will never find a better sounding copy anywhere. Even the printing of the sleeve is far superior to any other pressing. These can still be had for very near the price of the halfspeed mastered or maybe a lttle more. If you want the original sound, seek out and buy a 'MINT" or "NM" "Megaforce" pressing Ride the lightning. It will have the number "MRI 769" on the spine and on the back. This is how you can tell you have the original. Not only will you have the best recording in your hands, you will also own a piece of history in your hands, instead of a piece of crap. Even if you can't find one of these, find a original "Electra" copy and the quality will still be far better than all the rest. They are not too cheap either but worth every penny over the newer version on cheap vinyl. But don't just take my word on it, see what others are saying and save your money for the good stuff.

I bought this as a record (that should date

things) and about wore the grooves out of it

during a dark time in my life.  I found a

lot of solace in this music.  I played it

again the other day for the first time in

a long time, it still moves me.

title: great band! crappy lp sleeve

text: when i first received this i kinda wanted to return it. The vinyl was not protected within a record sleeve. The 2 lp's were just inserted into the jacket seperated by a flimsy piece of cardboard and a poster. NOT very professional packaging, in my opinion. This is the manufacturers fault, not this seller. I do recommend giving this bacd a listen though, whether cd or mp3 or vinyl. you wont be disappointed with their electro-pop sensibilities.

title: Vintage Vinyl

text: A nice addition to our vintage vinyl space age pop record collection!


title: Brilliant and timeless

text: The best band in the history of rock - in their prime, giving a magical performance of the epic compositions by the incomparable Stuart Adamson.  No one did it better.  Brilliant dual guitar work between Stuart and Bruce backed by the unstoppable drive of rhythm section of Tony and Mark.  This music is as powerful, energetic, and important now as it was in 1983.  Brilliant!


title: The package you mailed is very fragile.

text: Glisten cd in my car radio and the dvd at home in dvd player. The songs gives light to my soul.


title: Five Stars

text: Beautiful.


title: Amazing Music!

text: A wonderful album. The first of many albums by Trumpeter David B. Hooten! Monet very well spent and a great educational aid for young musicians.


title: Inspirational Masterpiece

text: The collaborators of this CD have done a masterful job of blending famous artists, news reports, comments, and speeches of the participants of this historic event. I have continued to listen to this CD long after its initial release in 2001.  I think it should be re-released on each anniversary of 9-11.  It is one of the most inspirational albums I have ever heard.  It comes highly recommended.


title: This music _is_ the new Star Trek

text:
When I first heard this score, I felt disappointed. I'm a lover of Goldsmith's contributions to the franchise, and quite frankly I missed his sound. But I continued to listen to Michael's score, and found myself humming it quite often. And pretty soon I realized that, yes, this is a great score and every bit good enough to grace images of Captain Kirk on the big screen. It's new and exciting, and it _fits_ Star Trek, and more importantly, it fits _this_ Star Trek.

I later bought the expanded score and I'm glad I did. If you can't afford this one, the initial release is excellent too, though.

title: Five Stars

text: Great songs on the cd's


title: A must have for every collection

text: Who doesn't like Adele. Nothing more to say.


title: I can't stop listening to this CD.

text: I prefer live-in-studio recordings above all others because they offer both the energy of a live recording mixed with the polish of a studio environment. Buy this for a unique snapshot of Sparks at their very peak in the mid-70's. Russel's voice never sounded better and the band is spot on with every song. The only negative is that the mix is off in places, with the bass track absent or mixed too low.  Guess that's to be expected, considering this was meant to be a one-time FM broadcast and not something for the ages.


title: Perfect

text: Great bto


title: Pretty good, although I'll get anything with Daft Punk on it.

text: It was good, if only it had more Daft Punk remixes.... I can't get enough Daft Punk, there legendarily epic. And I'm pretty sure legendarily isn't even a word, it just sounded appropriate.


title: Glory Child

text: Great for prayer time, you will experience the presence of Jesus when you soak in this beautiful worship c.d.!

title: Musics are excellent

text: Recording is ok


title: Innovative

text: One of the most innovative pop groups of the 90s (of the ones I've heard, at least), Jake Shillingford and My Life Story truly shine on "Golden Mile."  Highly inventive, a bit like Neil Hannon's The Divine Comedy in their approach.  "Strumpet" is a fresh blast of pop, who else would feature the bah-bah-bah boy chorus such as they do in a mainstream pop song?  Other highlights are "I Dive," probably the hardest driving song here.  Not for everyone, but recommended to fans of Britpop.


title: Very relaxing

text: It is a wonderful CD to use to help me fall asleep and I keep it on replay so it stays on all night and helps to block out any noise from our neighbors on the second floor above us.  Thank You!!

I saw these guys in concert at Forest Hills tennis arena back in 1971, before they broke up.  There were only three (3) at the time, Tom Fogerty had already left the band.  These songs are all great and love listening to them.  One of my four (4) top favorite groups.

text: It's music with a babbling brook theme, not really babbling brook sounds.  The product description does not indicate that it is mostly music.  I wanted babbling brook sounds, not music.  The music is nice, but not what I wanted.


title: Five Stars

text: Excellent music on these disks


title: The best of the best

text:
No one could captivate and inspire an audience like the Original Hinsons.  An audio recording alone doesn't really do them justice.  To get the full impact of just how good they were, you really had to see them in person, but this disc comes close.

This is the second of the three live projects the group did and in my opinion, it's the best one--largely because of the presence of Chris Hawkins.  Her clear, powerful voice brings the house down with the soulful "Burdens Are Lifted Away", then she and Kenny shift gears and rock the rafters with "Campmeeting Days".

Larry shows off both his singing and songwriting skills with "Come to the Water", while Ronny does his usual masterful job as MC.  Most other groups just stand on the stage and sing to the audience.  The Hinsons actively engage them with just the right blend of humor and seriousness.  When it's over, you've been to more than just a gospel concert.  You've had campmeeting.

The Hinsons were always known for their "Hallelujah" style and enthusiasm, but they were in fact masters of everything.  They were equally at ease with the easy-going "Too Many Times" as they were with the rocking "I Begin to Feel the Fire".

"I Begin to Feel the Fire" is one of two songs on this disc that never appeared on a studio project.  "To Know He's Real" is the other.

The Hinsons underwent several personnel changes in the 20-plus year career.  This combination of Ronny, Kenny, Larry and Chris occurred fairly early, but in my opinions represents the Hinsons at their best.

The Original Hinsons aren't in the Gospel Music Hall of Fame for nothing. This one's a must for your collection.

I bought this CD used months ago on a whim, and I was very suprised to recieve a really quality disc in the mail.  The track list goes as follows:
Burn
Valerie
Weight of the World
Telepathic
Livewire
Insecure
Carolann Has Been Dreaming
Stealing Flowers
One Fine Day, After
Anything But The Weather
Pocketful of Promises
There aren't copius lyrics to wade through; it is all seemingly simple.  But what lyrics there are stand poignant and blend seamlessly into this late-night rock record.  Support what should be an up-and-coming band!


title: Favorite group

text: Big Daddy Weave is my favorite Christian Group. I have loved each and every one of the CD's. We've been to see them a few times in concert. They are such Jesus freaks, which I love because I'm one too. They put so much love and faith in each one of their songs. They have never put a CD out that has disappointed me.


title: INTERESTING FORMAT.

text: THE EARLY BEATLES FROM RUSSIA. ACTUALLY I'M GLAD I PURCHASED THIS CD. ALL IN ALL THIS HAS PRETTY GOOD SOUND. THE SONGS,WELL,THEY SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. NICE COLLECTORS ITEM.


title: Affordable, Arrived quickly and in good shape

text: I do not have a working turntable and I probably will never listen to this album. I bought it for a display I am building showcasing the fabulous Hawaiian Village. The vinyl arrived in good shape and affordably priced. It's a great album cover shot too.


title: Missing DVD

text: It was used, missing the DVD but ok, cheap enough. Really not worth the full price. Its old, 2003 as dated, the "bonus" #7 CD has a pdf workbook has about 35 pages. Some web links don't work as expected. The home page just wanted to sell you stuff on business and motivation packages. This stock/mutual fund Buffett investment audio is one off from this company.

title: I'm satisfied with order

text: Item arrived earlier than expected in much better condition than previously reviewed


title: Holds Up Surprisingly Well

text: I got this album having listened to it many years ago. I have to say that listening to it again I thought I was going to hate it. But I was surprised to find out that it actually holds up. Yeah, it's experimental, and if you had I Write Sins Not Tragedies drilled into your head back in the mid-2000's, then maybe that track is a skip. But it's still got a fun mixture of interesting ideas going on. It can come off as pretentious with song titles like "London Beckoned Songs About Money Written By Machines," but if you can get past that, there's interesting stuff happening. Try it if you don't care about the stigma that everyone forgot about at least a decade ago, and you want to hear something that's a little different. If "new and interesting" is what you're looking for, you could do a lot worse than this.

title: Another Slam-Dunk from Rare Rockin' Records

text: I recently had a conversation with some other "boomer" friends of mine about missing the Top 40 format of our school years when you could hear tracks by Otis Redding, The Searchers, Frank Sinatra, Al Hirt and The Ronettes in a row. Listening to this album brings back that feeling for me - a little bit o' soul, some teeners, country crossovers and some real R&B. Of course, I did not even know most these tracks, but the effect was chillingly the same. It's simply a great "listen." But the best part for me was recognizing a couple of sides which must have done well in southern New England even though they didn't hit the Hot 100 such as Gladys Knight's "Either Way I Lose" and "Don't Take Her From Me" by Kris Jensen. I remember these records, but they fell off my radar because they're not in the general "oldies" repertoire because of the low charting status and no one ever plays them. It just goes to show you how fabulous popular music was in the early-mid-1960s if records this great couldn't reach the top of the charts! I anxiously await Volume 3!


title: Terrific work by an unknown

text: I've followed electronic music for a very long time.  And David Elinson shouldn't be ignored.  His work is inventive, lively, and enjoyable.  There are five albums out there somewhere, including this one.  If you find another title, grab it.


title: It's the Music!

text:
I remember back in 1969 when Fritz The Cat was playing in my local theater. I was just a kid, and wondered why I could not see this cartoon, and why it was rated "X". In 1972, my grandfather bought a whole bunch of random albums from a local store that was either going out of business, or was having a clearance sale. He was fooled by the cartoon character on the cover, thinking it was a childrens record.

This was my first exposure to jazz and rhythmn and blues. I became addicted to the songs. I love it to this day. The shear variety of songs on this LP make it worth the purchase. I was a fan of Fritz The Cat long before I finally saw the movie on a bad VHS tape in the 1990's. The movie and the songs are the product of the time. From the catchy rhythmic BLACK TALK to the cool DUKE'S THEME to Billie Holiday's YESTERDAYS, a definite pick up from the seasoned, and a great starter for the beginner.

title: Love this band

text: Great lyrics


title: Very helpful!

text: Joyce Meyer is straightforward and direct, so if you buy this CD set be sure to decide in advance that you will not be overly sensitive. Her insights into why people overeat can be very helpful to someone who is trying to discipline themselves in this area. I find it comforting to realize that even slim people cannot eat whatever they want, whenever they want it. They either don't want it so much or they make it a point to discipline themselves in this area. It isn't about being "lucky". I found these insights very helpful, and I am ten pounds down, more to go. If you love Joyce Meyer, you will love this CD set.

title: Not Drowning, positively floating

text: Australian ambient rock outfit Not Drowning Waving's first full-length album was an extraordinary achievement of musical iconoclasm in the intellectually and spiritually impoverished milieu of Australian music in the 1980s. Adventurous and experimental, it managed to combine haunting,  instrumental sounscapes with sweet, minimalist piano-driven ballads and edgy ensemble pieces that seemed to be invoking some sort of distant tribal consciousness . (Think This Mortal Coil's 'It'll End in Tears' and 'Filegree and Shadow' albums, Dead Can Dance, and even Mark Hollis's more experimental phase with Talk Talk).  In later years, NDW were suitably lauded by international music luminaries such as Peter Gabriel, but subsequent releases never seemed to quite match this ground-breaking, timeless and supremely introspective gem. In the spine-tingling "Mr Suharto Man" (with a disembodied, reverberating guitar riff that gets right under the skin) the Indonesian leader looks meanacingly out to the Timor Sea and - like some delusional demigod - claims it as his own. Not Drowning Waving looked within themselves, and what they reflected back resonated with discrimminating music afficionados throughout 'Terror' Australis. If you want to hear a song that heartachingly reveals the inescapable reality of growing old in a youth-worshipping society that marginalises and shuns the elderly, look no further than 'Perfect Design'. Not many songs in contemporary music perfectly consumate a marriage of social critique and empathic humanism like this touching story of a socially isolated old woman. One thing has still got me stumped though - if the British 4AD label signed up fellow Melburnians Dead Can Dance, how did NDW slip under their radar?
