title: Good 1990s Survey Album

text: A great 1990s mix "tape." I skipped a big chunk of the 1990s and was introduced to the music by a girlfriend. I found this CD and dug deeper. Mazzy Star and Yo La Tango -- wow!


title: Delius works for violin and piano

text: I am the violinist on this record.  I have to admit that it is about as flawlessly as I've ever played.  The performance was done in Jacksonville, Florida in 1975.  My wife played on a Kawai piano, and I was playing on a Gofriller violin at the time.  I played it live for the late Eric Fenby, the amanuensis for Delius during his illness, and he liked it, so I have at least that endorsement.  I am proud of this recording.  I am flattered that the price is this high.  I suppose there are few copies extant  by now, since Musical Heritage has replaced its LP catalog with CD's.  For those interested, I studied violin with Howard Boatwright and Joseph Fuchs as well as Ivan Galamian and Arthur Grumiaux, the latter for a year as a Fulbright scholar in Belgium.  At the time of this recording, I was concertmaster of the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra and Professor of Violin at Jacksonville University.  The recording expenses were donated by the Delius Association of Jacksonville.


title: BEST SONG EVER!!! :-D® (this is coming from a ten year old!)

text: This song is hilarious!!! Definitely the best of Tobuscus!!! I mean, come on! Who doesn't like songs about nuggets in biscuits, putting it all in mashed potatoes, and then dipping it in BBQ sauce!? Great song. `Cano out! :-D®


title: Great Record

text: You have to check this album out yourself. Well worth it.


title: wonderful. Fast shipping

text: wonderful.  Fast shipping.


This is a great album featuring Ginger Baker.  That said, the prices being posted on Amazon for this are insulting.  I just replaced my lost copy for $5.50 + $3.99 shipping from Discogs.  Don't shop drunk.


title: Unusual French music

text: The French are not exactly known for their love of rock music, a fact corroborated by Gene Simmons of Kiss fame in his biography. So it may surprise some that there are in fact several very good French rock/metal guitarists, albeit almost unknown in France. The best is Patrick Rondat, the French Vinnie Moore with a twist. Pascal Allaigre is another brilliant French guitarist from New Caledonia of all places. He is what many call a shredder, often stated in negative terms. Part of that negativity has to do with the fact that a lot of guitar lovers consider shredding to be all the same. This is not true, although I will admit that a number of technical guitarists get too wrapped up in the technical side of things and conveniently forget that people will actually be listening to the "music". Pascal Allaigre has found a good balance here on his debut album. The follow-up album "Timeless" is even better in my humble opinion. There are lots of attractive melodies here and the shredding is not over-used. My only complaint is that some of the songs sound a bit similar here. Nevertheless, a reasonably well rounded debut from the South Pacific. I never thought I'd see the day!


title: Oystein Sundes early days

text: I'm a huge fan of Oystein Sunde, one of Norway's best guitarists despite normally listening to instrumental rock guitar and progressive metal. This album was one I found hard to get a hold of even in Norway. The music is bluegrass with a distinctly Norwegian feel to it, especially in the song "Fanitullen" where the band uses the traditional Norwegian instrument the Harding Fiddle. The musicians are top notch and it's clear they're having a lot of fun here. The lyrics are hilarious at times. Still, despite liking this album quite a lot I feel that Oystein Sunde's later work is often better still, especially the albums "Haertatahort" and "Barkebille Boogie".  My opinion may very well be coloured by my musical leaning toward guitar music. The album is at any rate well worth getting your hands onto.


title: I Love It

text: I really like Mindless Behavior and their music. Took a while to be shipped to my house but it was worth the wait.


title: Great Music!

text: This is a wonderful CD - This particular version of "All Creatures of our God and King' will make you think of a walk in the woods, with birds singing in the background.


title: Pleasant surprise

text: I bought this because I just like Kevin Costner. I came across this CD but didn't know he sang. So I bought the CD out of curiosity. I love it! I listen to it all the time. Every song is good. This CD gets 👍👍 and ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


title: The one, the only....Kevin Costner and Modern West

text: Kevin and his band is awesome. Love the CD. Great musician and great actor. Can't wait to see him and his band in my hometown.


title: LOVE IT!

text: I have the 1st Modern West CD and didn't think it could get any better & it did! I love all the songs.


title: EXCELLENT!!

text: just love him and his band!!!very easy listening :) totally enjoyed the entire cd. my husband enjoyed this one also!!


title: “Turn it On” is a fantastic album featuring all the highs and lows one can ...

text:
Kevin Costner and Modern West——where to begin. “Turn it On” is a fantastic album featuring all the highs and lows one can get with 11 songs about successful or failed relationships.  The guitar work is consistent reminding me of several battle of the bands competitions I entered into in high school. I’m excited that these can help people live their dreams. If that acting thing never works out, Mr Costner, then music is the way ahead for you.

This album starts off strong. The musicianship in “Turn it On” provides a wonderful backing to lyrics recalling younger days when worries about the future pale in comparison to the presence of one’s star-crossed lover. “We’ve made it this far — so cross your heart with mine” can only recall Bill Shakespeare’s masterpiece Romeo & Juliet. Props to you, Kevin, for identifying an underdeveloped theme. I wish more people would employ these tropes.

“Ashes turn to Stone” continues these masterful themes. KC’s muse is clearly an angel, delivered by a shooting star’s “flame that has split the night.” His willingness to endure the trials and tribulations of the fleeting time we are each given on Earth (“time is a passing storm/life is a thunderclap”) is a tribute to his alter’s persona. And as with all great songwriting, this leaves me with a burning question: under what conditions do ashes really turn to stone? Seems like a high pressure situation, but this could also reflect life’s uncertainty and ever-present problems. Once again, Mr Costner, your wit and lyricism astound.

The intro for “Moon so High” recalls the great 1980s power ballads and does not disappoint. Like KC, I, too, have longed to travel to the moon but agree that the loneliness involved probably surpasses the sheer awesomeness of going to space. I do worry, however, about Mr Costner’s general goals as presented here. He’d rather spend all of his time with a “girl” (sic) who repeatedly breaks his heart than visit the moon. Now, that seems particularly problematic when the moon can be visited quite easily—just map quest directions to the 20th century fox soundstage in Century City. Mr Costner, if a woman keeps breaking your heart, just leave her and go to the moon. Gosh.

In the next song, “Maria Nay,” Kevin continues with the space theme. Kevin, I think you’ve identified a more important person in your life than all the girls (sic) that you keep writing about. Mr Moon Man is definitely the person for you. While were on the topic of poor life decisions, at least you recognize your need to quit smoking. Without acknowledging the perils of smoking I would have to recommend removing this song from the album. The line simply detracts from an otherwise solid production by this lyrical genius.

“Let Me Be the One” turns the prior songs on their head by introducing a synthesizer. WHERE WAS THIS BEFORE!? THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER! This song makes me feel like Mr Costner is the ideal man for me—in a purely platonic sense of course. “Let me be the name you whisper when you’re dreaming in the night // Be the hand you reach for every time you need to hold on tight.” Tell me those lyrics don’t make you see him as a shining example of a human being? Added bonus: song includes an unidentified ”girl” (sic) vocalist. More of her, and synths, please. Double bonus: Kevin seems to be a Doctor Who fan, intoning: “Let me be your true companion as you’re traveling through time.” Time travel. Companions. Survey says: Whovian (All the points).

Like the synth in “Let Me Be the One,” the percussion accompaniment for “Top Down” really makes the song—as does the guitar’s effects recalling various early U2 albums before they invaded your iTunes like the Mongolians did South Park’s beloved City Wok. The lyrics are personally relevant, too, given my love for driving with my car’s top down blaring music. The ol’ rock ’n roll really makes for excellent driving music. Even so, I don’t recommend trying to drive with your eyes closed. It leads to higher insurance premiums and awkward discussions with the police.

Let me be frank on “Red River:” the lyrics did not match with what I was expecting given the title. That being said, the uptempo guitar and driving drum kit are a nice transition from the prior two songs. I feel like it could use more double bass, though, like the driving 16th notes found in Gojira’s recent masterpiece Stranded. Similarly, in today’s increasingly PC world I admire Mr Costner’s willingness to identify with this country’s Christian tradition and incorporate baptism references into a song by mentioning the cleansing power of water. He also digs deep into pop culture to reference a musician named Bon Jovi’s B-side “living on a prayer,” and clearly identifies such a decision as trusting too much to luck than something material and under his direct control.

“Palisades” immediately made me think of the wonderful RTS classic Age of Empires 2. But it appears that Mr Costner had different ideas. He and his muse have apparently not  advanced beyond the Feudal Age because only palisade walls are used and, without siege, KC has no chance of overcoming this obstacle. But at the end of the day, the song’s understated intro is a refreshing ode to super group Infant Sorrow’s “Going up” and makes it a great option for best song on the album.

“The Way You Love Me” provides a nice turn toward the end of the album. Unlike the prior entries, however, I can’t really make heads or tails of what’s going on. It seems KC keeps screwing up but his muse still hangs out. This is definitely the most despondent Kevin sounds on the album. No shooting for the Moon, or enjoying a cigarette slouched on the hood of his car here, no sir. This is classic country at its best, or so I understand it to be.

The penultimate song “Saturday Night” was not what I was expecting, but that’s probably because I forgot this wasn’t a disco album. We have song number three with space references (“Big old yellow moon disappearing down the road”) so that’s a positive outcome. The trick, though, is that there doesn’t appear to be any indication as to why Saturday Night itself is so important. There’s some allusion to KC “working like a devil,” but was that Saturday morning? Or the week prior? More generally, this line is troubling to me at least because Mr Costner appears to say that his work supports Satan. That just cannot be. He appears to be a fine, upstanding individual with many quality performance credits. If he does worship Satan, then I may have to find a new hero.

Finally, we have “All I want from You.” A mellow exit-tune where KC acknowledges the shortcomings in his present relationship. This is perhaps the most important song on the album. It brings to everyone’s attention the need to nurture our relationships and develop our selves in a way that makes us the most happy. It recalls the classic line from Polonius in Bill Shakespeare’s Hamlet “This above all, to thine own self be true.” Kevin is killing it with these deep cuts. We should value our selves and our friendships, acknowledging every day that we could lose the people we treasure. And to do this we have to let ourselves know that we are often the source of any problems. We can’t push others away. We have to draw them close and “not take them for granted anymore.”

Turn it On is a hell of a listen. I highly recommend it for anyone else who loses their fantasy sports league.


title: Pure Americana

text: I'm a big fan of this band's modern country sound. Every song has an emotional story to tell. Costner uses vocal dynamics very well to emote sensitivity and strength in each song.


title: Moving movie music

text: This music score is gorgeous.  Vendor was prompt.  Price is high, but the CD was new, and it is rare and hard to find.  I am glad to have it.


title: excellent

text: These songs are very catchy!  I really enjoy listening to them myself.  My kids love them.  I only gave them four stars because I also have the Seeds Family Worship CDs and those are so amazing...but for some variety, I like these as well!


title: Cole Porter's Night and Day

text: As a Cole Porter fan, I really appreciated this CD during our cross country road trip.  It was reproduced in an excellent manner.


title: Exactly as described

text: Came sealed and safely packaged. If you haven't fallen down the Oneus rabbit hole, you need to. And if you have, this must go in the collection.


title: Four Stars

text: SLIGHTLY TATTERED SLEEVE, BUT RECORDING PRISTINE.


title: Il Volo: at the beginning.

text: They have come such a long way in the last few years, but going back to hear the young and beautiful voices from Italy.  You will be pleased, and if this is your first Il Volo CD, you may even fall in love a little....


title: Awesome!

text: Wonderful worship!


title: Five Stars

text: Absolutely perfect!


title: Baby Lullaby CD

text: This CD was originally purchased for my son when he was a newborn in 2000.  He has listened to it almost every night since that time and he is now 10-years-old!  The routine of going to sleep to its music, which is calming in tone and type, allows him to become restful almost instantly upon hearing it.  In fact, I had to buy a new copy of the same CD just a month ago because his old one finally gave out after excessive play over 10 years.  As my son said, "It is nostalgic for me. It is part of my childhood."


title: Five Stars

text: thanks


title: Love Tennessee Ernie!

text: Great collection...Ernie Ford never fails to impress!


title: BEAUTIFUL Celtic Instrumental WORSHIP album

text: I got permission from Skip to use several of these songs as "prayer beds" on the Christian radio station I work at.  The arrangements of these songs range from extremely simple to full orchestration. VERY WELL Done!!  Good for quiet meditative prayer, or just to sit and soak up good music!  MOST are at a medium tempo... the slow tempo doesn't drag...at least to me... and the addition of Morning has broken & Humors of Ballyloughlin rolling together add some extra joy to your worship time. Hard to pick a favorite tune, Come thou fount of every blessing, Be thou my vision, and the Hyfrydol are top three in no particular order... and now I'm going to go listen to it again!


title: Five Stars

text: Awesome


title: This version of the Piano Concerto is awesome!

text:
I managed to hear this performance, streaming, on another site. It opened my ears!

The other recordings of the Anderson Piano Concerto (Slatkin, Kunzel, or Henderson) are technically fine, but seem trite by comparison. Tempi tend to be fairly fast; dynamics rigid. They sound IMHO like the pianist and conductor were aware Anderson began writing this piece as a student exercise.

Thank goodness for the Aussies. This version has the necessary schmaltz (or soul, or depth) to make the piece sound like the homage to Gershwin that it really is. It's also the only one I've heard that makes the piano / snare duo sound like a true exchange of ideas, rather than a gimmick.

It's a shame the manufacturer seems to have withdrawn the release after only a couple of years. If it ever appears again, I'll buy it.


title: Five Stars

text: nice


title: Great Motivational Material

text: These CDs are recorded live to promote one of his earlier books.  Still,  with that unique, humorous style that Andy provides, it is enjoyable and highly motivational.


title: The real deal!

text:
I consider myself fortunate to have met Gwen about 10 years ago.  She is one of the most genuine people you'll ever meet.  Her voice is amazing, her songwriting is captivating.  This new album is fantastic.  I love every song.  Her parents sing on "One Like That" with her which is so special.  Miranda Lambert  sings on the bonus track, "Annie's New Gun" (fitting for a Pistol Annie!).  "Suitcase" hits home for me and "When I'm Gone" stays stuck in my head for days after I listen to it.  I recommend this CD for anyone and everyone who's a fan of true talent.

If you ever get a chance to see her live, you must!  Sometimes I worry that the stages they put her on are too small for all that energy!  Many times I've been amazed when she does covers that sound better than the original.  And if you're lucky, she might just sing some of her songs that are a few years older like:  "Who's Counting", "Roll Down Your Window", "Jump In", "Hard Rain", "V.I.P.(Barefoot Girl)", "Feel Your Love", "Welcome to My World", "Closed on Sunday", "Just a Regular Girl", "Things Don't Care", "No Pause, No Rewind", "That's Me", "Go Girl", "Turns Out I Did"...  (sorry I couldn't narrow that down to just a few - I have too many favorites!)

If only I could make the setlist.  Luckily she's sweet enough to usually throw in a Fleetwood Mac or Stevie Nicks cover for me (and it's always excellent!).

With her top-notch band backing her up - Louis Newman, Jason Hoffman, J. Paul Brittain, and Glen Mitchell - it's always great music and fun shows.  I expect we'll see some awesome albums following this gem!


title: Less Than Great

text:
This is a different kind of review for me. I have no musical ability. I play no instruments. No one, including myself, wants to hear me sing. Today, I am offering a review of a musical project.

The Red Letters Project: The Book of Matthew (official site: trlp.net) is a fascinating concept. It is an audio Bible. It is also a musical project. Distributed by Tyndale House Publishers, The Red Letters Project: The Book of Matthew is a 3 CD set that puts Jesus' words in the Gospel of Matthew to a rock soundtrack. That's right, a rock soundtrack.

First, let me say, anything we do to get people to read, listen to, and learn God's word is a good thing. I appreciate the effort of the producers, as well as their motive and the risk they have taken with this project. I hope God blesses them.

There are some problems with this album. They have chosen to use the New Living Translation. It is a good translation. It is the one I teach and preach from most of the time. It is great for reading; it is less than great for singing.
Of course, most any translation would not really be good for singing the words of Jesus. Jesus' words were primarily teaching or conversations. How well would your teaching or conversations fit to music?

Something else that could have been done better is the choice of artists, composers, etc. I do not mean to say it isn't done well. It is fine, I guess. But it has no star-power, at least from the Christian music industry, to help it be a success. This collection was released in 2009. I am guessing it hasn't sold well.
Another problem is the genre and length. I think rock music was a fine enough choice, but this is a 3 CD set that goes on for about 3 hours. At some point, it all starts to sound a lot alike. It may not have worked well to try to mix different genres of music in the same project, but 3 hours of this did not really work for me either.


title: Great Live Tom Waits, Weird Title Issue. Definitely not recorded in '89

text: Lots of songs on the album are from over a decade later than "'89", so I did a little research. It's a rerelease of two 1999 live albums "121 Tears in a Short Glass" and "Another 121 Tears in a Short Glass", both July 24th, 1999, Florence, Italy shows. Even just importing the album into iTunes shows the original titles. Strange release, was really confused first listening to it. Its a great performance though, lots of my favorite songs from the 1980s - 1990s  period of Tom's career. Hope that helps.


title: Plays great

text: Great


title: Found some nice tracks on this album

text: I found four tracks that I really liked and made a playlist from them.  Enjoyed them many times over.


title: Solid

text: 2nd album picks up where their debut left off and shows growth! Production is good. Good updated version. If only these guys could of stuck it out!


title: I liked the songs and enjoy the writers

text: Interesting album of played to death Christian standards if you keep up with songs. I liked the songs and enjoy the writers. They are worth the cost of the album. I think I was disappointed with the glossy bland production. Sounds like the album was produced for stressed out soccer moms! (Smile, you now who you are) it is an older album but a good sampling. I think it doesn't do the songwriters justice-sound wise. The attempt is awesome but the results just didn't pay off. Needed a bigger production budget and some creative production to pull it off. But if you are into classic Christian music and want a decent semi-acoustic album that falls in the "soft rock" or "office rock" category then it will be what you want. These guys could compete with modern folk Ryan Adams or Ray lamontagne but you would never know from the sounds of this album.


title: Awesome album. Timeless

text: Awesome album. Timeless. Still good after many years. This is David and the Giants at their best. Great lyrics...melodies. Great musicianship. Just good 80's pop rock.


title: Unique Mix

text: Terrific concept, beautifully executed.  The concept:  Gregorian chants sung in the traditional manner, then spiced up with jazz arrangements wonderfully executed by a small combo.  Just purchased this, and highly recommend it.


title: Stan Kenton, iconoclastic genius

text: How many big band leaders would have the courage and vision to tackle the music from Hair? One.  And if you like Kenton (who also interpreted Wagner!), and if you enjoyed the musical Hair, you'll love this album.


title: My favorite Joplin album

text:
I recently read an article on Huffington Post about this recording and had to buy it.  It's a very interesting story about how William Appling came to discover Scott Joplin late in his life and completely immersed himself in Joplin’s music.  After listening to only a few tracks I knew this would become one of my favorite Scott Joplin albums--and I have just about every one!  While Appling’s performances are somewhat slower than I'm used to, he shows a depth of feeling and soulfulness you rarely hear from other Joplin pianists.  I've already discovered many new favorites—pieces I thought I knew but realized I didn't remember all that well: "Eugenia," "Combination March," "A Breeze from Alabama" and others.

Scott Joplin was a genuinely great composer.  His melodies are absolutely addictive, and though it might seem odd to say, Joplin actually reminds me a lot of the Beatles.  Like them, Joplin couldn’t write a bad tune if he tried and every section of every piece sounds fresh and original.  Appling understands this in the way he shows such care and respect for each piece and how nothing he plays ever sounds “tossed off.”  Clearly a great deal of love went into this recording, not to mention enormous work.  I feel truly lucky to have found this CD.


title: Five Stars

text: thank you for the lovely collection of beautiful music. The packing was perfect.


title: For the MONEY..!!!

text:
I agree 100% with Patrick Noonan (reviewer) this CD should have been a nice well done combination of tunes & musicians, instead it is a lifeless, un-imaginative fuax attempt at spinning a project for MONEY.

Don't buy this CD.
Perhaps someone with real bluegrass chops from the actual tradition of bluegrass will do this properly someday.

THIS IS NOT IT....


title: Do you like..?  Blood Sweat & Tears, Chicago & Janis Joplin

text:
This LP, (never released on CD) was barely released even on vinyl (1973). Talk about signing with the wrong company..!! (Jolly Rogers Records aka: Kenny Rogers)  STANLEY STEAMER was a ROCKIN band with hints of dramatic production similar to the before mentioned groups, plus a little hint of Ambrosia & Jesus Christ Superstar thrown in there perhaps even a bit of the Elton John album "Friends" as well. Can you imagine a Band so solid & versatile that It could bring the house down, rock style, then turn on a dime with the sweetest orchestration you ever dreamed of, all with incredibly serious, i venture to say even dark lyrics..?

This band Pivots on the voice of Holly Vaughn. A singer I had never heard of & now wished I had LONG ago. Holly is capable of belting it out Janis style & can breath sweetness in a verse so soft you could cry. It is SO very clear this girl has been singing ALOT before this album was recorded, the professionalism of ALL the musicians on this record is astounding. I blame the fact that nobody knows who this band is on the Jolly Rogers recording company. Because if this band had signed with a better label, we would all know who they are today & there would have been many more albums to their credit. Fortunately for me, I have just digitally re-mixed a copy for my own use. If you find this album, BUY IT. It's even better than the also very scarce vinyl album "SNAIL".


title: Straight Forward Bluegrass! that's what this is....

text: I bought this CD for track #3, "Moonshine hard times". What a wonderful bonus to find that the entire album was Just as Good. Listen to streamimg radio "TheBluegrassMix-dot-com", to hear non-stop bluegrass.

title: Emma Molinaro endures more suffering than most Cookson women

text:
...in this typical Catherine Cookson page-turner.  The orphaned Emma is brought to live with her reluctant grandmother on a country farm.  Life is hard.  Emma endures very hard work, the abuse of her employers, and suspicion of her Spanish background.
Emma's great beauty and strenth of personality cause some men to love her and some men to hate and want to punish her for seeing through them. Circumstances force her to accept marriage from a decent enought young farmer Barney but her life is harsh, and she must endure the hatred of her brutal brother-in-law Luke, who eventually punishes both Emma and Barney in a particularly horrific fashion.
Emma must also bear the heartache her selfish, promiscuous daughter brings to the family, but she remains a good woman, working herself to exhaustion on the farm when her husband becomes disabled, and refusing to become bitter.  I wish Emma had been allowed to use her Whip in a more dramatic, rescuing fashion, like Ayla and her slingshot in Clan of the Cave Bear, but it tends to serve more as a symbol in this novel.
Emma's relentless hard times depressed me more than usual, I don't think the other Cookson heroines suffer quite this much, except maybe Katie Mullholland or Tilly Trotter.
In any event, this is another superb Catherine Cookson I'd highly recommend.

text: If you loved the motion picture, then this CD version of the soundtrack LP is sure to please. Listening to the soundtrack awakens visual memories of the movie. Here presented in all of it's splendor is the beautiful soundtrack to savor. It is a great thing to see independent labels preserving the magnificent soundtracks of the classic motion pictures for generations to enjoy forever.


title: Rocketman CD is Awesome!

text: Great Movie Sound Track!


title: Five Stars

text: So glad to have found this!


title: Groovy music for worldly ambiance

text: I bought this album in France, where the first track was all over the radios for months.  It is, in my humble opinion, not only worth the 18 euros but also a limb or two, or possibly a first-born child.  (Just kidding-kind of.)  A chill African flavor pervades the album from beginning to end, spicing up a very dance-able percussive beat that melds from one song to the next.  There are no weak tracks; some are more atmospheric and less sing-along than others, but they are all great for easy, leisurely groovin.


title: Beautiful, Sad and Wonderful!

text:
I finally received my CD of this incredible singer "The late Great David Ebo".  It took so many years to find someone or a resource to find this song.  David Ebo was such an exhilarating force to listen too!  he sang from his heart.....In the song "I'd Rather Be Myself' I was listening to man that felt he had short timeline in his life without really ever knowing that he would indeed leave us too soon.  He introduced his baby girl before he sang the the heart throb "I'd Rather Be Myself'  song and I hope if that this young lady is still with us she has something very sweet and memorable of having a great father that loved her so much.  The other songs on the CD are ok.  but i purchased it strictly for the main song.  Where ever you are EBO I'm only to sorry that you are gone and that I was young to understand the depths of your song of life, love and making changes.

I appreciate you today and always!  May your soul continue to rest in peace you made the music industry a better career path for those that you have inspired,

You Fan Always,

Joanette


title: Just the album?

text: The album came in one piece and undamaged which was good, however I mainly bought this cause it said it also came with a poster and a got7 card set. However I got none of those and I only got the album. Is there someone I can talk to about this?

title: Rare and important Opera for your collection

text: This is an outstanding performance of one of Verdi’s less known masterpieces.  This recording is probably from the early 1980’s before the great Jose Carreras’ bout with leukemia. He was certainly at the height of his artistry & Ricciarelli & Bruson are equally impressive


title: Outstanding music by an outstanding musician with personality!

text:
The recording takes my minds eye back to the live performances I had the pleasure of attending.  I highly recommend the recording and taking in his live performances when the opportunities permit!  Jeff Gold and the accomplished musicians that accompany him do an outstanding job presenting his self generated music based on true life experiences!

I highly recommend purchase of the "Streets Cracked" CD.

title: Less is better

text: This LP is a real gem. With Billy Strange on guitar and Josh Moser on bass the LP is an audio treat. The two accentuate Ernie's vocals but never get in the way. Ernie had such a rich voice and he uses it with great effect on this collection of country standards done in a blues setting. No drums, no strings, just three fine musicians that really nailed it on this album.


title: CALL ME MAYBE

text: The song was on the CD, but I expected to find other songs too. Recording quality was sub...service was extremely slow.  What happened to the good old days?


title: Arrived almost overnight!

text: The disc arrived the next day, but Amazon to this date reports it as undelivered. Anyway, I've got it and it is a great recording Spanish classics directed by Jesús López Cobos.


title: meier and Tomlinson are absolutely great, among the greatest performers of their respective roles ...

text: meier and Tomlinson are absolutely great, among the greatest performers of their respective roles ever. the orchestra is wonderful and Mehta leads a rousing performance.  schnaut is not a great singer but manages.  the farewell is very moving and she doesn't detract from it.  seiffert is fine as is rydl.  fugimura is not a commanding fricka.


title: Great Album!!!!!

text: EXCELLENT album!!!!


title: It's their best album

text: If you're a fan why haven't you bought this. If you're not buy it. And if you don't have lung capacity resist the urge to sing along to a majority of the concert staples in one album


title: Five Stars

text: Great luggage tags for a ballet dancer.


title: I absolutely love this CD

text: I absolutely love this CD. I have had this CD since it's release and I can't stop listening to it. I find myself wanting to sing along to all of the songs. There is not one bad song on this CD. It is a must have for every person's musical library.

title: TYR/Forbidden 2 in 1 CD

text:
Some of these martin era sabbath albums are out of print and the prices can be outrageous.
This 2 in 1 CD was the best bargain.

Anyway i simply got this for TYR which is a awesome album.

Jim Kimsey Debuts “Verlin Jack” at a Memorial Day Party
The AOL cofounder introduced guests to his lesser-known talent: country-and-Western singing.

 TWEET  SHARE
There were all kinds of music events available to
Washingtonians over the Memorial Day weekend, but a special group of
friends
were on hand for the debut performance of an unlikely
country-and-Western crooner: Verlin Jack, who sang songs about his life,
including a memorable drinking bout in Cuba with Fidel Castro.
Jack is more commonly known as
Jim Kimsey, cofounder of AOL. In Verlin Jack
mode, Kimsey was Western from the top of his head to the tips of his
toes: black shirt
and jeans, black alligator boots, and a big ol’ belt buckle
bedecked with a large V. He was backed by his band, the Hired
Assassins.
As singers are apt to do, between songs he told stories, including a corker about
Fidel Castro. He said he’d had a couple of
occasions to visit the Cuban leader. “I was told about his dehydration
during the day so that
he could drink all night. I stayed in my room at the National
Hotel and dehydrated all day, so I could out-drink Fidel.” Once
they got together it became a mano-a-mano duel to see who would
“break the seal” and use the restroom first. “I wish I’d worn
a darker shade of trousers,” Kimsey said, and then launched
into a tune dedicated to Castro, with the lyrics, “I’m gonna wait
you out.”
Guests filled the tented penthouse terrace outside Kimsey’s office on Pennsylvania Avenue adjacent to the White House. Among
Kimsey’s assorted older friends was
Ronan Farrow, the 24-year-old offspring of
Woody Allen and
Mia Farrow. Farrow is a youth adviser to Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton and knows Kimsey through their work with Refugees International; the two collaborated on several tunes, including the one about Castro.
The view was spectacular; ditto the heat. Large fans and pitchers of sangria were on hand, as well as two Southern buffets
of ribs, corn pudding, and barbecue chicken.
Verlin started a little tentatively, but by the second
and third songs he was in his groove, breaking into a dance with one
of his backup singers. Most of the tunes were about drinkin’,
lovin’, and workin’, plus a couple of Leonard Cohen covers.
Alas, nothing about owning the most expensive house in the
metro
area!
Eventually he called up his “lunch buddies” to join him—a
chorus of middle-aged men in sports shirts warbling “That’s Amore,”
the only non-Western song in the playlist. But then, Kimsey’s
friends know that as much as he channels Verlin Jack, there’s
a side of him that’s Dean Martin, too.

title: Sensational Soul Cruisers

text: I got to see the Soul Cruisers perform live at the Cape May Jazz Festival about 8 or 9 years ago.  They are a fabulous live soul sensation. This cd is from two of their live performances.  They have like 15 members of the band and 7 or 8 singers.  They are great and this disc gives a nice preview. Of course nothing beats being there live. This disc is broken into 5 tracks. Track one is Soul Cruiser Mix 1- it is 22:23 min. long. It is 6 songs. The song titles are not listed anywhere so I will give you my best guess of song titles.(Bear in mind that I suck at this) 1. Workin' My Way Back to You, 2. I Love Music, 3. It  Only Takes a Minute Girl (To Fall in Love), 4. Come On and Dance With Me, 5.Brick House, 6. Lou Rawls tune-"You Never Find..Like I do.-----Track 2 is You're the Best Thing that Ever Happened--Track3 Soul Cruisers Mix 2 is12:57 min.and four songs. 1. It's a Shame(?), 2.Girl They Say I'm Fallin' in Love, 3. I'll Be There, 4.One of a Kind---Track 4 is one song titled Brand New--Track 5 is Soul Cruisers Mix3-15:45 min. It has 6 songs-1. Lady(?), 2.Don't Stop Til You've Had Enough, 3. The Beat Goes On (?) Not Sonny and Cher at all, 4.Give It Too Me Baby(?), 5.Band to the Boogie Beat(?) little funky, 6.Play That Funky Music White Boy-definitely funky.  Just over 1 hour of music.  You won't be disappointed.  It is live so remember that.

title: Pure Rock and Roll

text: They have a sound that reminds me of "Guns and Roses".  The singer isn't as engaged as Axel Rose but is pretty good. The guitar player is great. Some of the songs have a sixties rock feel.  All songs were written by lead singer Richard Hanggi. Self produced so it is hard to find out much about the band.  Good rock and roll. Songs are heavy on guitar if you like that.  It appears the band is out of Dallas Tx. area.  This was the only album I could find by them.


title: THIS ALBUM SWINGS!

text: This album is EXCELLENT, every cut is slamming. Mr. Loftis combines standards, original, blues, and modal tunes  with great ease, and the band he uses is magnificent. Mr. Loftis plays tenor and soprano saxes; Anthony Wonsey, piano; Dezron Douglas, bass; Donald Edwards, drums, and Roy Hargrove, trumpet on a couple of tracks, OUTSTANDING! I Hate When My Check Ain’t Right may be my favorite tune because I love the blues, but really, all the tunes are marvelous, and the band’s rapport is truly communal. Mr. Loftis’s originals alone worth the price of the album (Byblos, Kathy’s Quest, Giving Rise To Doubt, Eugene’s Swing, YES!!!!!). In short, GET THIS ALBUM!🎵❤👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿


title: The greatest showman

text: Perfect sound track of the movie thank you!


title: It's a rip off

text: Had only a few good songs, the rest was filler not worth the price of admission.


title: This product met my expectations

text: As expected. It plays well.


title: One Star

text: Very limited dont even know what is on the CD aaaaahard sell


title: Masterful!

text: This somewhat hard to find recording should go down as one of Bill Frisell's greatest achievements.I often shy away from "solo" albums figuring that even if the playing is great it may sound monochromatic.Not Bill! The music just swirls around in beautiful patterns. It reminds me of John Coltrane's characterization of Monk's music as "sheets of sounds." Listen to Shenandoah and Wildwood Flowers Variations. Stunning music.


title: recommended

text: An excellent blend of two-tone ska and gritty mobster attitude.  Unfortunately it was made after the two-tone heyday but they're still a great band!


title: Unearthly Revelations

text:
Everything good you have read about this album is true. Blood Incantation are as sick and brutal as any old-school death metal band; the guitar tone beautifully distorted, Paul Riedl's vocals sparse but devastating, the drums beefy and punishing, the composition a flawless balance of aggressive blasting with mid-paced interludes and melodic elements. And yet they also push the envelope as much as any prog-death outfit in the world--not with blinding speed or technicality, but sheer atmosphere.

Starspawn's sound is all-encompassing, sweeping the listener off well-traveled paths of earthly decay and setting them adrift in a limitless galaxy of sci-fi inspired horror. It can't really be described in words, only experienced through repeated listens. Blood Incantation are out to transcend every preconceived notion of death metal's limits, one blown mind at a time.

The Live on Old Grey Whistle Test DVD was good as was the Greatest Hits CD.  The problem was with Southern Surroundings DVD-Audio/Video disc.  Did not contain live performances on the DVD, just songs and still photos of the band members.  Quite a disappointment.


title: Item

text: Love the CD and it came in fast...


title: most beautiful bedspread

text: i love this bedspread and i will probably buy again.  only reason i gave it four stars is i feel as if the stitching should be doubled/reinforced throughout.  i am handily with the needle so i was able to fix those loose threads when it arrived on my own.  for reference i had the drop length custom to 32.5 inches and it was perfect!


title: FANTASTIC COMPILATION

text: This cd album is a wonderful collection of assorted current smooth jazz artists


title: Enchanted Music

text: I hadn't heard this song, "Enchanted Sea," in over 50 years. I was able to track it down through Amazon, and never dreamed I would have it for my "oldies" collection, all these years later!


title: "GREAT Big tiny Little"

text:
This wonderful music owns a magic wand that can instantly change sadness into hapiness. Unfortunately as all good things it's difficult to be found. I'm very happy I grabbed the last copy but truly hope others will come, it would be a real pity for lovers of good piano music.
Since Amazon made me meet BTL I bought all the CD's I found and was never disappointed by one single song.
 This is a very good one with excellent musicians, BTL on top of all, and a very good clear sound. If you find it don't let it go it will bring you only happy feelings.

title: "The Amazing Timi in all her voice/soul power"

text:
This CD is a brilliant mix of Tim's First Liberty Period and the Mercury Period.
Finally!!! I found six songs of Timi's Absolute Best "Voice/Soul" renditions belonging to the sublime-masterpiece LP "THE AMAZING TIMI YURO" (Mercury 1964), yes exactly the same title and same cover photo of this CD. All finally in a true, clear, clean STEREO sound! I really hoped this CD would have carried all 12 off these marvelous songs but 50% is better than nothing.
 As the track listings are missing I will list below all the songs of this very nice CD and will also mark (*) the 6 songs taken from her above uncomparable-jewel LP.
 As stated the quality of the remastering is very good and 23/28 songs are in rich STEREO sound for 77'26" of wonderful music.
 Now I hope some Top US or UK rematering house will edit in rich STEREO the whole LP or at least the 6 missing songs. Marginal Records, the Belgium house that did a very good job with this CD, unfortunately does not exist anymore.
 Really the 12 jewels of the above Wonderful LP have already been remasterd by Universal UK in the CD "Amazing Timi Yuro: The Mercury Years" (if you are interested read my review) but very unfortunately in a disappointing poor MONO sound.

Here are the songs of this CD:

1.IT'LL NEVER BE OVER ME  2.FEVER  3.WHAT'S A MATTER BABY  4.AIN'T GONNA CRY NO MORE  5.INSULT TO INJURY  6.COUNT EVERYTHING  7.ONLY LOVE ME  8.THAT'S RIGHT WALK ON BY  9.IF I NEVER GET TO LOVE YOU  10.HURT  11.FOR YOU  12.SMILE  13.YOU BELONG TO MY HEART  14.LET ME CALL YOU SWEETHEART  15.I'M AFRAID THE MASQUERADE IS OVER (*)  16.IF (*)  17.MAYBE YOU'LL BE THERE (*)  18.I'M STILL AROUND (*)  19.ALL I NEED IS LOVE (*)  20.MAYBE YOU'LL BE THERE (*)  21.CUTTIN' IN  22.TURN THE WORLD AROUND TO THE OTHER WAY  23.PRETEND  24.MAKE THE WORLD GO AWAY  25.LEAVIN'ON YOUR MIND 26.I APOLOGIZE  27.TI CREDO  28.LE SOLITE COSE.
All STEREO except 21,22,23,27,28

The 6 missing jewels to complete her best LP are:
 1. I love my man  2. I got it bad  3. I can dream can't I  4. Johnny  5.My foolish heart  6. There must be a way.

An ideal Super Best CD should contain two Lp's: 1. The Uncomparable "The Amazing Timi Yuro" (Mercury 1964  2. "Something bad on my mind" (Liberty 1968) remastered in a proper way, plus some top songs of the first Libery period as Hurt, Smile, I apologize, Cry, My prayer, You belong to my heart...whatever fits.... I'm sure, that with a bit of advertisement, it could surely become a best seller and finally Timi will have the fame she deserves.
Anyway comming back to this CD must say it really is a suberb CD from every point of view, it contains songs unfound in others and is therefore a must have not only for Timi fans. Get it fast, if you find it, because it's a limited edition and on top of this now Marginal Records is unfortunately gone.

I did not say much about Timi but the only words that really matter and tell us all about her are the ones comming from her Unique-Wonderful Voice.

Ciao,
Franco

title: "Simple, Soft, Sweet Guitars for Happy hours"

text:
This exclusive sound of the 60's is still wonderful today.
 Four unique Guitars accompanied by soft-brush background drums in a magic joyful combination.
This is by far the best S-A-Ls CD I know on the market, it's produced by ACE UK, the ACEs in remastering! Must say also that the only other S-A-Ls fully instrumental CD I know: "The very Best of the S-A-Ls" made by Collectables has a very good sound Quality but contains only 12 songs, just over 25'.
 This is the only CD that should be called "The Best of the S-A-Ls" as it delivers practically all their biggest hits; 28 nice songs, over 1hr of very enjoyable music .
I told you about ACE UK ,I will tell you the songs, as also these are not shown:

1.WHEELS  2.BRASS BUTTONS  3.SHOULD I  4.SCOTTIE  5.NEARLY SUNRISE  6.SUNDAY  7.MY BLUE HEAVEN  8.MATILDA  9.SKIPPIN'  1O.MINA BIRD  11.HAPPY MELODY  12.PANIC BUTTON  13.WALK DON'T RUN  14.SUMMERTIME  15.PERFIDIA  16.BULLDOG  17.SPINNIN' MY WHEELS  18.RED RIVER TWIST  19.TAKE A MINUTE  20.YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO.  21.TORQUAY  22. TWIST WATCH  23.HARBOUR LIGHTS  24 TELL THE WORLD  25.ARE YOU LONESOME TONIGHT  26.MY BABE  27.HEARTACHES 28.REPLICA.

Very good music and sound quality with 20/28 songs in STEREO and the other 8 in clean clear mono. Unfortunately two of my favorites (SUNDAY and TWIST WATCH) are in mono but I'm sure ACE had no stereo tapes avaiable.
 I wonder why this jewel is so difficult to find, did ACE stop the production? I had to buy mine used and must say I'm very happy...If you like these guys and find one...don't let it go.
Front or background this music finds here space anytime.
Ciao,
Franco


title: Young Timi what a VOICE...the CD can't contain it !

text:
Fantastic Timi (********), not even close the recording (**), the LP has a much better sound, more balanced on the higher frequences and cleaner, but Timi's wonderful vibrations are so powerful that the average remains (*****). The LP (first 12 songs of this CD) called in Italy "The amazing Timi Yuro" (Mercury 1964) is for me the Best of Timi's "Voice/Soul" performances, better than the excellent "Something bad on my mind" (Liberty 68) where the voice is a teeny bit less powerful.
 I was so happy to have finally found in CD (my Lp is worn out) these fantastic 12 songs that I purchased two but when I started playing it I had two very strong and opposite feelings; the VOICE of Timi SUBLIME, the sound disappointing and MONO, why?
 Timi deserves a much much MUCH better treatment than this and a full STEREO sound, can't English houses, masters in remastering (not this one!) have a look at this unrepeatable rendition of 12 marvellous songs and re-master from the STEREO-master in True,Clean STEREO as should be?
 ACE or RPM that has already made a couple of good remasterings of Timi with a clean, major part, STEREO sound, should please have a look at these jewels: Outstanding, Unique, Unrepeatable interpretations of 12 wonderful songs.

Repeat; recording Quality 1,5 stars, if it was not for Timi I would have taken advantage of the force of gravity and dropped the CD in the garbidge. But Timi makes it anyway a GREAT record!

 I will never understand why you were so ignored, Timi, why can't we hear, the way it is, more of your unique-beautiful voice...does this world turn clockwise?

 Don't miss "The Best of Timi Yuro" 1992 and "The Original" 1998 (all young Timi), wonderfull sound, beautiful remasterings (even if very early 60's) and practically all STEREO...the voice of Timi has space to expand with all her immense soul-power. "The Original" has two great songs; My prayer and Cry which are not in The Best. As stated also RPM has made a couple of good quality, major part STEREO, remasterings which are a must have.
 It seems that lately Timi is starting to get a bit nore attention, I truly hope that one of the excellent US or UK remastering houses will finally consider the masterpiece  "The Amazing Timi Yuro".
 One last consideration; for me the best of the three (3) "Great" Timi  Periods are the first (LIBERTY) and the second (MERCURY), the third (LIBERTY) is outstanding in "Soul" but the "Voice" is just a teeny bit less powerful...anyway I love them all!

Timi your "Voice/Soul" are just uncomparable.

Ciao,
Franco

PS, It would be very good to know, among all the other useful info, if old recordings made from 1959 onwards are Original STEREO, as should be, or MONO.

Franco

Awesome, these songs are un released in their version, extended and remixed the entire album "prisoner".
Cher has done four dance albums, this is one of them. A rare treasure for sure.

title: Like Rhodes Piano? Don't buy this CD!

text: Wow..a Christmas album featuring a Rhodes!?  I love Rhodes pianos and have one in my living room, so I was elated to see this CD.  But it's not played on a Rhodes.  It sounds like the electric piano patch on a cheap keyboard, complete with cheezy drum track.  It's definitely not played on any model of a real Rhodes piano.  What a disappointment.  All the songs are very stiff, as if they were sequenced a note a time rather than played live.  I'd love to know where they came up with the "at the Rhodes piano" for the title.

title: A Great Collection of Americana

text: This 3 CD collection is a wonderful assortment of American ballads, songs, and genres throughout our wonderful history.  Disc One includes our British Heritage, Building of America, Irish Heritage, Sea Chanteys and Riverboat Songs, and Westward Migration.  Disc Two contains the Civil War, The Cowboy, Badmen and Tough Women, Railroad and Coal Mines Songs.  Disc Three begins with the Sweet Songs in the Parlor, Ragtime & Jazz, Country Blues, America Goes to War, and the Great Depression. I feel this wide assortment of songs is awesome. This collection is perfect for an American history teacher, a student, or any American who desires to hear our musical heritage.  The Civil War period of song is perfectly captured with these songs: "Battle Hymn of the Republic," "Goober Peas," "The Girl I left Behind," "Lorena," "Dixie," "Yellow Rose of Texas," "Just Before the Battle Mother," and "When Johnny Comes Marching Home."  These songs are a perfect mixture of northern and southern culture during the Civil War.  This is a powerful collection of American musical history.  While some collections do not include famous artists singing ballads of the past, Great Songs of America includes a wide variety of famous musical artists.

title: A beautiful score!

text:
When I first saw the Young Black Stallion I was a bit disappointed in the film. Far to short and not like the original book. But despite that, I loved the score that played in theaters. It only has fifteen tracks, and runs for about 39 minutes. It has a bit of Lawrence of Arabia vibe to it. But overall, it's a shame the score is so short since I do think this is one of William Ross's best scores.

And here is the track list since it wasn't in the description when I first bought this score.

1. Main Title
2. The Caravan
3. Caravan Attack
4. Alone/The Stallion
5. Friends
6. Mirage/ Going Home
7. Aiden/ The Grandfather
8. Even Gina
9. Secret Valley

13. The Horse Race
14. Finale

text:
Wonderful, dreamy music. Great sound. Love the strings and haunting trumpet.
Gleason made a lot of nice music in the 50s and 60s--these four songs are some of his best.
"Autumn Leaves" made the charts.


title: ... use to listen when I was a teenager I love his romantic christian music

text: I am looking for the Coleccion By Kent Leroy  quiero cantar del amor that i use to listen when I was a teenager I love his romantic christian music. Where can I get this original music?


title: So happy 💜

text: I finally got the peach version of the most beautiful moment in life Pt 2 & I couldn’t be happier! I pulled an OT7 photocard which I wasn’t expecting since I rarely pull an ot7 pc :) I don’t have a bias so no matter whose pc I pull it always makes my day.


title: Love it 💜

text: Everything came in perfect condition & even arrived earlier than I expected! :) I pulled Hobi from the left version & jk from the right, I guessed I would pull either one of them from either version & I was right! 💜 I would highly recommend this product especially if you’re looking to add to your bts album collection


title: Love it 💜💜💜

text:
I got versions L, O & E, to complete the rest of my love yourself her album versions that I needed so now I have all 4 :) The seller is “megahitrecords” & I bought from them before while on my journey to buying all of bts’s albums so I knew they were trustworthy & that I wanted to buy the albums from them.

Also, I got so lucky & managed to pull not just 1 but 2 yoongi photocards! (I don’t have a bias I’m just ot7) but I don’t pull him as often so I’m happy I got him this time, twice! :)


title: Love it 💜

text: I now have all 4 versions of Wings 💜 I got version W a while back & I thought it about time to get the other 3 versions (I, N & G) & I couldn’t be happier to have these new additions to my ever growing bts album collection. I got the OT7 group Polaroid/oc from versions W & I, & two Jin Polaroids/pc’s from versions N & G. I wasn’t expecting to get doubles twice but I’m still happy either way 💜😊


title: Love it! 💜

text: I absolutely love it! I got both the day & the night version of forever young & I’m so happy. The outer plastic wrapping for the night version was open a little, but no damage to the product itself. For the day version a little bit of the top corner was dented (which isn’t a big deal for me since it’s just a corner) but no damage to anything else. The little dent on the corner can’t be noticed at all on my BTS shelf unless you look really close up. Overall, everything came in perfect condition & came very quickly. I’m very happy with everything 💜.


title: Love it 💜

text: This album is one of my favorites from BTS, not only are the songs just amazing but the packaging of this album & the photos of them inside are beautiful! i was hoping to get a Yoongi photocard since I haven’t gotten a photocard of him yet since my journey to collect all of BTS’s albums & I got lucky! The photo of him is especially so cute, I love mint hair on him. I highly recommend getting this album if you haven’t already & you’re thinking about it! It came in perfect condition & was wrapped very nicely & securely.


title: Aquarius Records review

text: Metal bands gone acoustic, tend to be pretty 'blah' affairs, especially in black metal. Simple strumming often reveals that minus the wash of buzz and the blasting drums, black metal doesn't hold up very well, especially when pared down to -just- acoustic guitar. So we were a bit wary when we heard about this 'acoustic' side project from Claudio of Frostmoon Eclipse (who we love BTW), but we were knocked for a loop, as this isn't really acoustic, and beyond that, it's a gorgeously creepy, weird and dark, grim ROCK record. Shades of Opeth for sure, but also Angels Of Light, Sixteen Horsepower, Katatonia and the like. The acoustic guitar is central to the sound, but there are huge cascading distorted stretches, the drums are massive and dense, crushing and complex, the vocals are a whispery croon, the whole thing so moody and minor key. Each track a slow build from mathy folky post rock to bombastic dramatic epic, the melodies so perfect and catchy, even in the heavier parts, the acoustic guitar surfaces in dense little tangles, over a tribal drum pattern, a complex sonic interplay that often erupts into super emotional swells, with the lead guitar pealing off gorgeous guitar lines, the whole band whipped into a frenzy before settling back down into a dark strummed meander.<br />The more we listen to this, the more it definitely sounds like a more post rock Katatonia. That sort of super dramatic bombast, the super catchy, strangely sad and haunting melodies, but the metal here is dialed way back, minus a few end of song blow outs, most of the record is spent darkly brooding, the sound gorgeously melancholy, a mournful drift that wouldn't be at all out of place on your shelf between Red House Painters, Woven Hand, Katatonia, Kiss The Anus, Crippled Black Phoenix, Blood And Time, Jeffrey Luck Lucas and Earth.


title: Excellent album.

text: Excellent album.


title: Great CD for a wonderful cause

text: Thoroughly enjoy this music -- for kids, but great for adults to enjoy with the little ones. Even better, the proceeds benefit the Joseph Gomoll Foundation, which supports research to end seizures. You can really feel good about your purchase.


title: Great Album of truly beautiful renditions of classic songs!

text: On several occasions, my wife and I were privileged to see this wonderful duo live in Palm Springs a few years back at a great but now defunct restaurant near Steinmart.  What amazing music they produced!  We purchased this CD from them, and have enjoyed it ever since.


title: Worth a listen & then some!

text: Ratboy follows in the footsteps of They Might Be Giants and Barenaked Ladies:  fun and frivolous upon first listen, but as you play it again and again you'll discover thoughtful and meaninful lyrics wrought with social commentary.  Feel good music with a funk folk flair!  Check out Garbage Man and Falling Up, especially.


title: Highly recommend!

text: Excellent lineup of musicians, backing great vocalists.


title: Awesome album!

text: Awesome album!!! Lyndsey was one of outstanding singers at Saddleback church during the late 1990s.<br />Wish she had continued making albums!!

title: Black Crowes treasure

text: I’ve been looking for this Black Crowes vinyl for a very long time....I walked into a coffee shop that sells used vinyl....I was shocked to find this vinyl set in perfect condition practically new at an amazing price !! Best find I’ve had in a very long time....I’ve been a Black Crowes fan from day one and just added a treasure to my Black Crowes collection....


title: Music to dance or listen to.

text: Real nice clean reggae music with a twist.


title: Smooth listening jazz

text: Great collection,easy listening


title: The wall cd

text: Awesome, in perfect shape, not a blemish on either side of disk!


title: Had all my favs!

text: Enjoyed the 2 CD's takes you back in time!


The record was just as advertised, cover VG/Near Mint condition. The Vinyl  VG plus condition.  However, it was advertised as  mono, when it was clearly a stereo recording.  After doing more research, I decided I liked the song  selection on stereo version better, so I'm Keeping it. That being said- I'd buy from this vendor again


title: love it

text: came with photocard


title: Five Stars

text: ok


title: Wow is all I can say

text: It’s like these simply gentlemen are speaking directly to my loins. Every time I listen to the CD I get heart palpitations, which is bad but i don’t care. This CD is proof there is a God, and he is good because he inflicted us with this CD. It owns.


title: MARAVILLOSOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

text: SON BELLOS Y CON VOCES FANTASTICAS, A TODAS LAS CHICAS QUE FUERON Y SON FANS DE MENUDO, ESTE DISCO LES VA A ENCANTAR SE LOS ASEGURO...


title: Only the best kept secret in America 1980s and the most unsung Artists.

text: The only problem I ever had with this album was that it wasn’t longer. Just takes me to another place where I don’t want to ever come home from and leaves me starving for more. Folky yet Etherial with a splash of fun. The Best Is Yet To Come was the song I played at my Wedding instead of that stupid traditional “Here comes the bride”.  Definitely some of the most important music in my life.


title: Five Stars

text: Great album it's good to hear her early stuff total different from the stuff she doe's now


title: Refreshing like medicine

text:
There is a wondrous charm about this band. A Silent Film's air hit me while they were opening for Blue October on their western leg of the 2012 tour and since then I have been hooked. Their defined sound in Sand & Snow is not only powerfully addictive it's downright refreshing. Bands like this are rare breeds and this is one of those albums that will have you hitting repeat for hours without getting sick of it.

Yes, one can make comparisons to The Killers and Coldplay, but A Silent Film truly stands on their own. The melodies to every song on this album are addictive, the lyrics hauntingly beautiful; You never quite feel alone while listening to this album. "Anastasia," "Love Takes a Wrecking Ball" and "Reaching the Potential" are highlights of the tracks for me but you have to listen to every track to appreciate their quality. And with such heart embedded into every note it's an incredibly easy feat to achieve.

I truly look forward to seeing what more this band will create as these artists have such a beautifully unique and sincere talent for what they do.


title: I. M VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE OUTCOME OF THESE ...

text:
I.M VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE OUTCOME OF THESE RECORDINGS.  I DO HAVE THE ORIGINAL MONAURALS.

I IMAGINE THIS WILL CONTINUE WITH MORE OF FRANK'S AND THE OTHER BALLADEERS.


title: My First EXO Album

text:
The Album got here within 2 weeks of me ordering it! It comes with two extra little photo cards, and a random photo card in the album. I got Tao's album and Lay's photo card! The album wasn't as big as I expected, but I love it none the less. It came in perfect condition, and I was completely happy to get it. It was my first EXO album and the tracklist is wicked!
1. Call Me Baby
2. Transformer
3. What If..
4. My Answer
5. Exodus
6. El Dorado
7. Playboy
8. Hurt
9. Lady Luck
10. Beautiful
I can't really pick a favorite but let me say Lady Luck was a surprise!


title: Great purchase

text: Great product. Everything came in good condition and the pop out stand up Soyeon is made to be displayed and can be put back into its original mold without causing any damage. You can tell Soyeon was very involved in the packaging concept.


title: Ten Point Ten

text: The first cd I owned by these guys was 12 25.....their Christmas cd.....it totally blew me away. Excellent prog and very spritual.... and so I thought I'd like to hear some other stuff and purchased Eleven at the request of a friend. Also very gratifying Christian prog rock.....I suggest it for any lover of Christian and or progressive rock...


title: loved that I could find it

text: I have been looking for this for over 50 years.  Thank you.  I have to have it transferred to disc.


title: A truly spiritual masterpiece

text: Take this one with you paddling on a starry night alone. Let it paint a soft magical background for a quiet evening with a friend. Kirtana touches truth so sweetly and wraps it gently with harmonies and lyrics of silver  and gold. It's a heart winner.


title: Five Stars

text: great cd with Trent Reznor and company producing great sounds with a female vocalist.


title: Great mini

text: Looks just like the troll picture from the 5e monster manual.


title: Excellent

text: My father took me to see the musical when I was a kid.  I love the songs, and the crisp vinyl sound makes it even more enjoyable.  This is a collector's item for the true fan.  Happy listening!


title: Great CD

text: I really am enjoying this contemporary gospel CD. The commentary in between the songs is great. Whenever I am driving with a passenger in my car listening to it, I am always asked where did I purchased it. Jabez's prayer is the desire of every Christian. To be use by God in a large way.


title: GENIUS! PURE GENIUS!

text: LOVE THIS CD! It reminds me of Frank Zappa with a female voice that reminds me of Blondie. The music and writing is pure genius! I Love the song "Go Home." And I truly love the genius of the song "Blow it Up Now."  It makes you realize what we have right now in USA....for as long as we shall have it. Also, the changes of this song are excellent. The lyrics of all the songs are genius! The music is catchy. I had the pleasure of actually meeting the singer, Sarah.  She is a natural comedian! She had me in stitches when she shared her insights in her humorous way. Everyone who has worked on this music via instruments, vocals, writing, producing, etc., autographed their art with excellence!<br />This CD took me on a wonderful journey! Thank you for writing and recording it!


title: A National treasure in my hands!

text: What a treasure! Replaced my ancient 1970ish paperback for my permanent library. I was glad to get it and surprised at the pristine condition.


title: Poor Conversion

text: I had both albums and cassette tapes but this conversion cut off songs and the quality is poor and it is not registered so neither Microsoft of iTunes recognized the CD.


title: easy to assemble

text: easy to assemble, seems to be sturdy, used 1/2 wegde it bolts to fasten to floor.  It will function as designed, but it would have been better if the manufacturer would have made the handle for bead breaker a tighter and the spindle bar (the silver rod that fits at the top center. I will be doing this myself. for the price it will work just fine. Would give 5 stars  but i feel tools like this should have a snug fit.


title: An excellent CD for young baritones

text: With so many young baritones listening to powerhouses like Robert Merrill and Ettore Bastiannini singing monstorous arias, it is nice to find a CD from a well known baritone like Hvorostovsky singing on the more lyrical side of the baritonal spectrum. Hats off to Dimitri on this one. It truly is a "must-have" for any aspiring young baritone, let alone the average listener.


title: Fame should have followed

text:
I first saw the raisins live when they opened for Adrian Belew.  They were described to me as a 'bar band', but it took only two or three bars to dispel that notion.  They played songs I'd never heard before with fire, wrote lyrics insulting all the right people and genuinely kicked my @$$ back in in the seat.  I had never heard a band so strong as players, singers and songwriters.  Simply put, it was the raisins who taught me that great bands didn't always find fame and fortune.

The album starts with guitarist Rob Fetters little hit "Fear is Never Boring" a slashing cynical rocker with brains to spare and a great hook. But that's just the opening line.  "The Bends" chronicles the travails the life of a non-famous road band with hooks and wit Spinal Tap might envy.  The raisins version of the Stones classic "19th Nervous Breakdown" has a manic energy that drives their version clear past the original. "Let Us Prey" has an acid edge that just drips.

In short, this is a great album, mixing R&B, acid rock and power pop with lyrics clever enough to have been penned by Ray Davies or Frank Zappa.

The thing about panning for gold is you have to go through a lot of rocks to get a nugget. No rocks here.  This record is pure gold.


title: Clásico ejemplar

text: Un clásico de la alabanza y la adoración


title: Down By the Creekbank

text:
[[ASIN:555226763X Down by the Creek Bank with CD (Audio)]]

My girls and I were in this musical 25 years ago.  It is a joy to share it with my grandchildren!  They music is great and so is the dialogue that is on the CD.  Highly recommend


title: Sleep helper

text: My Mom is 91 yo and has trouble sleeping. This music has really helped her fall asleep more quickly and stay asleep longer.


title: Five Stars

text: This is a great CD to help teach Spanish.


Gwen’s best work sense her first solo effort. I would recommend the international version. I can’t beliebe LOVEABLE and GETTING WARMER weren’t on the album would have been huge hits

text: Yes great item , great sevice ,


title: Five Stars

text: My favorite movie soundtrack. Captures the breath of the story and the place.


title: GET ON BOARD......

text: I picked this up at a bookstore while dealing with severe Panic and Anxiety disorder. Desperate to find anything that helped this turned out to be the best ten dollars I spent. I have many tapes and books but this one really helped me. I play it when I go to sleep at night and Lloyd Glauberman takes me on a wonderful relaxing ride. Before you know it I'm sound asleep. Not saying this technique works for all but I love it. Thanks Lloyd Glauberman.


title: Unfortunately it did not meet my expectations because the WRONG ...

text: Unfortunately it did not meet my expectations because the WRONG record was in the album sleeve. It was the Gaylords singing Italian songs in Italian, not American songs in Italian. I still am keeping my eyes our for the correct album. It is hilarious!


title: New Surprise for Me

text: Just discovered the band and glad I did. They are very energetic and creative.


title: Five Stars

text: one of my favorite singers, excellent songs


title: Five Stars

text: great


title: Chroma

text: I just love it. Have been filling my home with these beautiful sounds. Thank you for producing this wonderful gift.


title: Five Stars

text: Wonderful follow-up to CD1!


title: Five Stars

text: Wonderful CD!


title: Love, love love

text: Love, love love, all the songs in this collection!!!!<br />For the third time: Why is this man not in the Songwriters Hall of Fame??????!!!!!!!


title: Lesser Barry

text: Being a huge John Barry fan I was excited to see this available.  I had a familiarity with Wednesday's Child and thought it was an ok tune for the time, but the problem is here, it is overused throughout the soundtrack without much variety.  A relatively short soundtrack (35 min) with not much else to offer.  The carnival like waltz cadence soon grows tiresome and I find myself not re-listening to this as much as his Bond work or the excellent Ipcress Files.  Probably for a completist, it's an ok purchase if you're out of other Barry music.


title: Five Stars

text: love it


title: Five Stars

text: Good albun


title: Five Stars

text: Took a long time to locate this album. A very talented trumpeter.


title: The best recording ever made

text: All you have to  know is revaluing and del Monaco is singing...


title: well received gift

text: This was a Gift for my wife who finds comfort in one particular song on the album, the album contains one of songs my wife plays over and over again, comfort food for the soul.


title: Its Ok

text: Its ok but easily forgettable. Best Song is the Title song Gazing at Medusa.


title: Virtually Tasteless - Yucky!

text: I think this is the very first poor review I have ever written.  I was so disappointed in the taste of these cookies.  They are a little larger than a quarter.  I could have lived with that.  However, the taste was so dry and so bad I thought something was wrong with the one I tasted first.  I tasted another, spit it out, and bit off each color.  They all tasted the same.  Terrible!  I gave them 1 star because the box and packaging is very nice.  Sorry guys ... There was just no other way to describe them.


title: Wonderful seasonal music

text: I had this on cassette and wanted to get it on CD.  Glad to find it on line.  Perfect Holiday music !!!


title: Abba is a great group

text: Enjoy the music


title: Maybe the best album ever

text: Bears voice is amazing.  A lot of passion in the music on this album.  I never get tired of hearing it!


title: Five Stars

text: Great, authentic, Tunisian sounds.


title: Not what we thought

text: Not right CD


title: Loved this great album

text: Loved this great album, and still have it packed away after too many moves. I so wish it would come out on CD. I even loved the Abbey Road Medley, and would love to again hear The End. Great album!


title: Five Stars

text: Cheesy, but in a lovable way. Probably an acquired taste.


title: Five Stars

text: Super awesome! Arrived with everything stated in wonderful condition and included exotic candy from Korea.


title: Wonderful Cd case

text: Arrived early and in Perfect condition. This is such a lovely collection of stories and the voices are terrific.


title: Helene Fischer is amazing

text: Perfect condition and arrived well ahead of expected date.


title: Worth it just for the surround sound mix!

text: For the most part I have been unimpressed by most 5.1 mixes of popular music. Bob Marley's Legend" and Dire Straits' "Brothers In Arms" have been the ones that made the most of the format. But this? This surpasses the best of the best! This is what surround sound can (and should) be. Regardless of what you may think of the album itself, the surround sound mix is nothing short of revelatory. Recording artist, record producers, audio engineers: if you're thinking about doing a surround sound mix, listen to this first. If you can't make yours sound this good, don't waste your time and don't ask me to buy yet another copy of an old warhorse.


title: Germans answer to the Beastie Boys!

text: Great tunes, sounds like the Germans answer to the Beastie Boys!


title: 1990's club vibe

text: If you want a trip back to the 1990's club scene this is the CD! Just re-discovered this after years of being packed away reminded me of nights at the Tunnel in NYC or Club USA.


title: Not for beginners

text: He goes way too fast difficult to follow


title: They DO have a live disc, just not this one.

text: The offspring do have a live album. It's called Happy Hour and it's right here on Amazon, literally a few places further down than where you found this . It's a japanese pressing and it sounds amazing. Crystal clear live recording. It also has a few rare tracks and a cover song from ac/DC, the stooges and the Ramones.


title: 2008 tour exclusive

text: Available only on stops JAM Project made during their 2008 world tour, this is a decent revue of JAM’s material to that point. However, if you’re looking for something with more tracks and more TLC, get the Strong Best Album MOTTO! MOTTO!! That has re-recorded versions more like the takes on the songs JAM does live now.


title: Sweet cd!

text: Great sound quality,extra songs, fantastic!


title: A "One Hit Wonder" to some but not all folks

text:
Oh my... back to 1983 or so.

A local FM station had "This is Japan" by Duke Jupiter on their playlist.  A mighty-fine tune!!!

Real rock-and-roll, folks.

What makes this song a little different is a tinge, subtle under and over-tones reminiscent of what many would declare is an "Oriental style" of music.

Yet, it is NOT a true Oriental sound at all.

Hard to describe. You will have to listen to absorb the uniqueness and what to me is the wonderfulness of "This is Japan."

The band is from upper-state New York, I believe.

Oh my, look what I found!!!!!

[...]
It's from the Duke Jupiter Web site where you can learn more about the band.


title: Excelente compra 😉

text: Todo el disco 💿 está hemoso


title: Beautiful Music To My Ears

text: One my fave cds all time


title: Brilliance!!!

text: My favorite artist of all time...


title: Well done

text: Patsy's voice is one of a kind and it was great hearing the songs done with new arrangements. and im glad they were recorded with respect towards the originals. My only criticism is that the backup vocals on I Fall To Pieces are a bit overbearing on some verses.....something Patsy would not like from everything I know about her opinion regarding backup vocals. But overall nicely done and a must have for any Patsy Cline Fan.


title: Nice soundtrack

text: I bought this cd 💿 strictly for the end song Lets Fly because I couldn't find it on Shazam when I searched for it. Have just about all of the original anime in including the live action one. I love Gatchaman AKA G Force!


title: Import cd

text: If your a Perl Jam fan this is a great cd for your collection. Great music. Thanks for a great deal!


title: Great

text: Great


title: Fascinating to listen to... once.

text:
NB: This is not a greatest hits CD. For that, try "One," with 27 career chart-toppers.

This is fascinating to listen to, even if you're not a Beatles nut. Everyone knows the tunes, but to hear these outtakes is to marvel at how flexible, experimental, and facile the Beatles were, as it shows them trying different permutations and instrumentations, adding interludes and codas. It demystifies the recording process, and it also lays bare the original kernels of Beatles songs that until now we've always heard overlaid with their orchestration and effects. It also exposes their personalities, as they joke and debate - especially McCartney, merry and clever.

This is the kind of disk that will grab your whole attention, the kind of disc you will sit down and concentrate on, reading the liner notes for each track and wishing they were longer.

By the same token, please note that even though this set is riveting, you might not listen to it more than once, any more than you would re-read a good biography.


title: Five Stars

text: Great item. many thanks.


title: Very Enjoyable

text: A golden oldy.  Not sure why this is different than the album on the same name in iTunes.  Just a good listen, check it out.


title: A Most Unique Individual

text: For a short time, Dan and I worked together at a traffic signal manufacturing company in Austin called Eagle-Signal (headquarters in Davenport, Iowa). He invited me to his house, and as I recall he played his lap steel guitar and sang "Roberta" for me. Audience of one. Pretty special. I still have this album he gave me that day. Rest easy, Dan.


title: Five Stars

text: The songs are just like how I remembered them but better. I love it.


title: Grateful Dead in Philly 84

text: Not one of my favorite Dead eras but this is very good show! Scarlet Begonias to Fire on the Mountain is a very satisfying highlight of this set! Recommend for a very good 80s show!


title: A masterpiece

text: Great album from a great brand. If your a fan of Kataklysm I highly recommend adding this album to your collection. This album is a gem.


title: Good Music

text: Relaxing, well recorded, music.


title: Better than described😁

text: Thank you so much! I'm so, so happy that this was in amazing shape and I am able to make my Grandpa and Jack a part of our wall💚


title: Great

text: Awesome


title: I love every song on this album

text: I love every song on this album. The package came quickly and you can tell it was professional packaged. Helpful seller. Came with lots of stuff like photocards and a poster.


title: Concert band plays patriotic music

text: A fine concert band plays a selection of patriotic music and marches. Brilliantly conducted by the legendary John P. Paynter of Northwestern University.


title: The best album that I have ever heard

text: This is my favorite album, no question. Almost every song on this album is a beautiful masterpiece. They are mysterious and tug at the soul.


title: Five Stars

text: Soundboard quality.


title: Five Stars

text: Very happy with cd


title: Five Stars

text: Delivered fast and works exactly as expected.  Couldn't find this battery anywhere in town.


title: Five Stars

text: Like the studio recordings and seeing the song development process


title: Does anybody know if the cd has a band playing ...

text: Does anybody  know  if the  cd  has a band playing? Los Espias. My dad made  a children's cd  with  her an I'm wondering  if this one  has the band in it.


title: That's the way it goes

text: I was lead to believe was the sound track from roadhouse 2 and it was only by one of the artist. I was really for a couple of James Otto songs that aren't on any album.


title: Throwback to the 90s!

text: When placed in PC the entire disc is one long track!  That's okay, I used software to divide it up into individual mp3's


title: When Forever Comes Crashing Revisited

text:
Abrasive doesn't even begin to describe Converge's blaring output.

I can still remember picking up the LP version of When Forever Comes Crashing at this small "Christian" venue/record shop in Butler, PA of all places. Let's just say, after that needle hit the wax, my undeveloped hardcore mind was greatly altered...in a good way (and I have to say, When Forever sounds so damn good on vinyl).

This reissue of When Forever Comes Crashing comes with an extra track (an unreleased demo version of "Bitter and Then Some"), a video of "When Forever Comes Crashing,"plus the whole album was remixed by Kurt Ballou along with new artwork and photos. Needless to say, if you don't already own this release now's the time to pick it up.

Converge is undeniably one of the most progressive bands in metal/hardcore, and heck, they put on one of the most stirring live shows you'll ever see. I've always gravitated towards When Forever Comes Crashing as one of my favorite Converge releases since it was my first real introduction to the band. It is callused, inventive, eerie, and statically charged, and the nightmarish blend of hardcore and metal found on this release surpassed anything I had heard at the time of its release. When Forever frequently changes from frantic madness to sludgy teeth rattling parts with Jacob's tortured screams ricocheting above the instrumentations, but it never loses that compelling drive that lasts from the first to last track. Probably the softest song to ever come out of the Converge camp is "Ten Cents," but it fits so perfectly on When Forever that it doesn't even feel out of place.

Overall, When Forever is an essential release, and with the extra gems scattered throughout this release, any fan of inventive heavy music shouldn't be missing this record in their collection.


title: Oh, no!  Ripped off, again!

text: I came across this collection in a store at a reasonably low price and was in such a hurry that I failed to notice the very small print on the back of the box that says these are "new stereo recordings."  It was only upon playing the CDs for the first time that I discovered that 22 of the 24 songs on these two discs are studio remakes, many of which are vastly differently from the original recordings.  Absolutely none of them could be mistaken for the original hits.  One track, "When I Need You" by Leo Sayer, is a live recording that's not too bad as far as live recordings go, but it's a song I never really cared for in the first place.  The only track noted to be an original recording, "Moonlight Feels Right" by Starbuck, isn't really the same as the album or single versions, but is a weird remix of the original recording from which a bit of the instrumentation seems to be missing, and in which a normally understated keyboard riff has been given a very prominent place way up front in the mix.  In fact, it's mixed louder than any other instrument and even higher than the vocals, and becomes so annoying--sort of like a car alarm continuously honking--that it's impossible to enjoy the song.  For me, this entire collection is worthless and makes me further appreciate what a great job a conscientious label like Rhino Records does when it repackages oldies, always with the original recordings and superb sound.  Buyer beware!


title: My first record

text: This was the first record I had. My dad bought it for me when I was ten years old. I later learned to play the piano.


title: Mislabeling and misleading post

text: Want a CD. This was label as CD but but enclosed in parenthesis a cassette tape. Misleading labeling you won't catch at first glance.


title: Turkish I was a great start

text: I recently completed Turkish I and then went on a trip to Istanbul and later the Black Sea region around Trabzon.  The Turkish I learned from the course was invaluable.  The locals were surprised that I knew any Turkish and were impressed with my pronunciation.  The CDs were instrumental in getting this fine tuned.  It's just too bad there isn't a II and III.  They would really come in handy on my next visit.

title: The Album That Will Make You Smile and Dance!!!!

text:
In her debut album, Blossom (a.k.a Blümchen) delivers a jam packed,  feet stompin', techno driven, album that will have you dancing the night away.  The majority of the songs on this ablum are fast, peppy and consists of electronica, euro-techno and happy hardcore elements throughout. The lyrics are simple and sweet.  If I could describe this album in 2 words it would be 'Techno Love'.  I say this because the lyrics, although simple, describe just that-falling in love, being together and just being happy.

It's a bit disappointing that Blossom did not get a whole lot of recognition here in the United States as compared to Germany and Europe, because she is awesome!  She sings from the heart and knows how to get you on the dance floor with your hands in the air. This is what makes Blossom amazing!

For the few English language albums that Blossom has come out with,(as the majority of her albums and singles are sung in German) this one makes the grade.  For an album that is almost 10 years old, this is one of my many favorites. I enjoy listening to this album because it lifts my spirits and makes me feel good. Having a passion for electronic music, this is definitely an album that no raver, or club kid should go without. If you enjoy happy hardcore, techno, and electronica music, this album is sure to please.  This is an album that you need to listen to in order to fully appreciate.  Although Blossom has finished her music career in the year 2000, she will hold a special place in my heart and in my music library.  If you get an opportunity to get your hands on this rare album, put it in your CD player, crank up the volume and let Blossom take you on this techno odyssey!
