title: MY NEW BIAS!

text:
I should have known that I was going to be 100% in love with this group when the debuted. When I saw them the fact that each member is so different and so pretty!  But now to the music, this group is very, very unique the singing voice rangers and notes they can hit OMFG! LOVE! Okay EVERGLOW you have my money :) -JONZEY/Detroit.

My Favorite song off the Mini album is-NO Good Reason.


title: Shriekback's Organic - All Natural - High Bran Album

text: Shriekback's Barry Andrews is a genius of the highest order. This album has the band ditch all synthesizers (A bold move! Electronics being heretofore their main life-blood.) Andrews' garage sale of the sorts of machines worshiped by pale Englishmen with funny haircuts and their ilk frees him up to add yet another depth to the Shriekback sound. Attempts to express my enthusiasm for works of art like the contents on this CD are ineffable - at least on my part - but I do want to register my 5 stars, and hope that anybody who follows my other recommendations will try this great work of art as well. This is like eavesdropping on Shriekback in a world of no electricity. Thank God somebody was cranking a generator or some such device in order to record this work. AWESOME in the organic, original sense of the word. BUY! BUY! BUY!


title: The Platonic Ideal Recording of These Masterpieces

text: Most recordings of Beethoven's masterpieces (String Quartets) have players huffing, puffing, moaning and even groaning - here, The Quartetto Italiano provide flawless (therefore astounding/soul enriching) performances of these works. And if beauty and perfection in art remains a flawed depiction of the ideal Platonic universe that is out of our reach, then having players who perform without the sweat, moans, groans and other human biological noises of most other string quartet ensembles is something very special and very precious! My highest recommendation for this set! -- Another outfit that recorded great performances of Beethoven's quartets without extraneous noises was the Melos Quartet - A big "Si" to that set as well!


title: This lady gives Debussy a strong, masculine thrust!

text:
I liked Debussy's music as an entree from pop/rock to the wonderful world of Classical.
Composers who first impressed as doormen to that classical world were people like Debussy, Ravel - even Stravinsky.
I've grown cold to them now - especially Debussy with his effete watercolors. Well here's an unsung here: one Cecille Ousset - who got panned by the powers that were, for this very recording.

Time should do her justice - she empowers Debussy with some strength where it's sorely needed - and sheer virtuosity in the shimmering sections. A great case for making Debussy listenable again, giving him the power that all too many pianists snip away from him. Recommended - if you can find it!

EDIT: I have now discovered, some months after composing the above ditty, that Debussy complained about performers who didn't take his fortissimo markings seriously - making his music too ethereal. Ms Ousset's performances should be vindicated some day.


title: Two Houses - Gross & Keeley

text: Love Paul Gross' music!  Angels is my favorite track, but then it's hard to choose on this one!  After The War is a beautiful song.


title: Great if you can get it...

text:
It may be cheaper to get these songs on import singles rather than paying big bucks for the disc. TV Loop is just that, a TV Loop, so DO NOT buy any import single with that on it.

Hopefully BMRC will get more popular with every album, this will force Virgin to release all B-Sides from the first two albums at a reasonable price to make a buck.

text: this is really the pinnacle of goa trance, what began the golden age of what is today classic trance. i simply had to buy the CD for my collection


Ok, so this isn't officially a review of THIS album, but since there were no comments yet I had to chime in about this incredible musician.  Several of these songs are available to SEE on youtube - simply go there and search for Stevie Wonder's I Wish under Inhyeok Yeo's channel, and be prepared to be blown away.

These songs are actually a visual feast as you watch him singing all the parts as a member of his own a capella choir and backup band.  This is the new generation of truly capable cross-trained musicians who are able to vocally breathe new life in some of the musical standards of recent decades, using complex chording and breathtaking multi-track precision.

The price is steep for this CD, but not if you understand and appreciate the complexities of this work.  I do wish this were a Blu-ray video instead that had all the songs in multi-track format like the youtube videos.  But this will have to do.  Thank you Inhyeok!  Your work is amazing!

(And if you like this man's work, check out Jacob Collier.  Another extremely talented musician with extreme multi-track creativity.)


title: great music

text: Great music. Love this band very mellow music.  Alternative sound, worth a listen.  Would highly recommend. Will buy more cd's on this band


title: No image, no listing of songs

title: I’m glad I found the cds

text: My daughters loved it


title: Good learning tool

text: This has been very useful for me. This has helped me to learn the correct way to say the words of the Quran and it is also useful in learning the Arabic alphabet. I highly recommend this for any new convert to Islam or for anyone interested in studying this beautiful religion!


title: Great if you are new to self development

text: This is a good lesson if you are in early days of self development, I learn something from everything I do and I did enjoy Wayne Dyers new release but it was very gentle and repetitive of what I already knew in life.

text: I have finished this course and need to go through it again.  I enjoy learning about the power withi us and this CD set teaches you to tune it and learn


title: Im really enjoying this CD set, I have listened ...

text: Im really enjoying this CD set, I have listened to it twice to absorb it, it's different but if you can master the message, very powerful!!


title: Came very fast

text: Love listening to the CD


title: Amazing Work

text: This was made at a very fascinating time in the Lower Haight in San Fransisco. I was just stepping onto the spoken word poetry scene. It was before everyone had cell phones!! We were all about our craft at that time and Cafe International was the meeting place for lots of socially, spiritually conscious and creative folks!! We had a blast learning from each other. I am slightly nostalgic for that era, late nineties and early 2000's.


title: DJ Cash Money's Infamous Stash of 45's

text: I have to disagree with the K. Thomas review. This CD is exactly what it states "Head Bangin 45's". This CD is incredible!!! Cash  let's the music play and doesn't get in the way with excessive scratchin'. As the CD goes on he masterfully steps up the mixin', never losing the groove. Track selection and timing is flawless. The mood is built up like a true master.  K.Thomas, did you hear the distant sound of vinyl artifacts..i.e. static? That's because they are... 45's!!!!  And these 40 year old records sound brand new and not like bacon frying in a pan of hot grease. It's clear that he is spinning 45's and not mp3's. And even if they were transferred DVS files, you just don't scratch up and "jack rabbit pump"all the classics like that just because you can buy new control vinyl. You let the funk flow. And no, not just anyone could have done this type of Mix because you can't even find most of those breaks on vinyl or CD, let alone on itunes. And while many DJ's can now scratch, only a hand full can "scratch and mix". Try to find one<br /> copy of each of those 45's...and then consider that he has doubles !!!!


title: my "baby"!

text:
For me, Lea Salonga and broadway are just synonymous. Once again, she proved that on this CD. She interpreted the songs so beautifully as well as David Shannon too. They really did justice on the original version in fact Lea and Liz Callaway, in my opinion, kind of sounds alike. Though there are only three songs on this CD, it is still worth listening to.

Tracks are:

1. I CHOSE RIGHT (David Shannon)- I love this song! It's about a guy's tough decision to be with the one he loves and proved to the world that he indeed made the right choice. Lines like..."first I think about you, then I think about me loving you, then I think about you and me deciding we can be one...it's crazy I know, I wrestled with my pillow all last night then I look at you...and I know....I chose right!

2. TWO PEOPLE IN LOVE (Lea Salonga & David Shannon) another lovely upbeat song! just about the power of two---as in "the magnitude of two people in love!!!"

3. THE STORY GOES ON (Lea Salonga)- a beautiful ballad about the continuous chain of life--"so this is the tale my mother told me..."

"...and now I can see the chain extending, my child is next in a line that has no ending and here am I full of life that her child will feel...

"...our story goes on...and on...and on....and on..."

so for a broadway fan like me- great music, great singers-what more can I ask for?


title: are you kidding me?

text: I own this album because we bought it when we saw this band in concert.  It is a great cd and we really wanted to buy one for a friend but not for $114.00.  Is this a typo?  That is way too much for a cd.  Unless of course, they are going to deliver it personally and then autograph it!  I guess we won't be buying this on amazon.  Thanks but that is a ridiculous price.


title: 2 Steps from Heaven

text: This collaboration released by 2SFH is another release from the God Head of Epic Music.  Brilliant in every way...as usual.


title: CW, Still great after all these years and changes

text: I think that like many, I was disappointed by the constant change in the Celtic Woman cast. I was happily surprised at the energy and singing of the newest Woman, Lisa Lambe. She has a beautiful and versatile voice. She was a joy to watch and listen to in both her solos and when singing with Lisa and Chloe. The addition of a Celtic dancer and increased bagpipe participation was ok but it is still the Woman who make the album. I hope Lisa Lambe is with them for a long stay. The album, CD and DVD, is well worth the cost. I had read some negative comments on the DVD picture quality but it shows well on both my 1080P and 720P sets. I would highly recomment both CD and DVD to Celtic Woman fans.


title: One Star

text: it came broken box and cd's scratched

title: It is a pleasure.

text: Patricia's renditions, style and voice are wonderful on this album. I have enjoyed it completly.  I have no complaints at all.


title: No lo recomiendo.

text: Los CD súper bien, los libros súper débiles, se le caen las páginas al ir viendo las fotos, no trajo las tarjetitas y los póster vienen manchados y rotos por el medio.


title: Crazy prices

text: I was wanting this CD but 900.00 dollars forget that...


title: Five Stars

text: Both the book and the CD are great.


I bought this for my friend, and she loved it! Everything came in perfect condition.


title: bts is the best

text: its bts. Its good lol


title: Not exactly like the movie though, =T

text: When I watched the movie, I instantly fell in love with the soundtrack so much so I bought it in front of others I had been wanting to get for a long time. The songs that most motivated me to get it were Pyaar Mange and Jeena Sirf Merre Liye. Now in the movie, Pyaar Mange was only Tusshar Kapoor's character singing it, so when I pop in the cd and I hear a woman's voice starting it off - I get upset. In the next stanza, the male singer's voice from the movie sings and the song becomes a duet. It is beautifully done - no doubt, but I have this law of firsts. The way I first hear it and love it, is the way I always want to love and hear it 99.99% of the time. It also seemed like there should be another song on the cd, which was the musical piece in the movie during their Holi fight in the house - however brief, but it is not on here. All in all though, it is a great soundtrack and I have very much enjoyed listening to it over and over again. I would recommend it only with the understanding of these differences from the movie!


title: Great Songs with Bonus Great Songs

text: LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the movie Mujhse Dosti Karoge (It's way better than a Soap Opera) but I can't watch it all the time. 1) It's about 2hrs long and 2) I've got other things I got to do. But, I can do other things and listen to the music from it and mentally watch it over and over and over again in my head. Awesome! It has some other songs from the actor Hrithik Roshan's other movies; I didn't like them until I watched the movie videos with the English subtitles on youtube. I would recommend it if you're a fan of this movie and enjoyed the songs enough to hear them again and again.


title: Excellent song choices!

text: This is a fun CD!


title: Perfect!!

text: I received my album on time! There were no damages and everything came well packaged. Absolutely loved the extra pictures and mirror :)


title: Some concerns with the cover

text: Great album however the album cover looks to be a bit damaged and slightly bent. The CD and photo card came in perfect condition though :)


title: Good Music

text: I have been looking for a copy of one of their albums -- for a particular song -- for a long time, and was having very little luck.  I am pleased to have purchased this item, as it provided the song that I was looking for as well as introducing me to much more of their music.  Thanks...


title: Main Hoon Na

text: This CD was purchased for my car.  When I turned on the CD player, I already had a CD playing in the #6 slot.  When I retrieved it and loaded this one, everything came to a halt.  I cannot play it; I cannot unload it; I cannot play any of my CD's.  I can't even return it because I can't retrieve it.  What the heck happened??  I have purchased several of these CD's without any problems.


title: Domo Arigoto Momoechan.

text: One of my favorite albums by this Japanese super star singer.


title: Thanks Yoko !!!

text: Great. This gal has a great voice.I have been buying her albums for over 10 years . She is one of my favorite Japanese singers.


title: Good caribbean/American folk music

text: Michael Bean has now several CDs out even though they do not seem to be available on Amazon, you can purchase on his own website.  He is a native of Michigan spending winters usually in the British Virgin Islands singing his unique entertaining American and Caribbean themed folk music.  Very good audio quality too.  Well worth the $20 fare.


title: Guitars,guitars.

text: Have been listening since somewhere around 78,I've had a chance to hear him go in a lot of different directions!I have to say,that as a guitarist,I think this is a first class set of music.But having said that,I will say,this is not as cd for people who like 4 on the floor straight ahead rock and roll.This is hearing a guitarist with imagination,whos willing go where a song takes him.No vocals on this,but a world of guitars!


title: I like the jazz influenced historical versions better than what we ...

text: Very different arrangements from what we now hear in the concert hall. I like the jazz influenced historical versions better than what we usually hear  now.


title: Tight Harmony!

text: This group showed up at our church and performed. I cannot think of a group to compare them to but can say that their sound is full and the harmonies extremely tight. The lyrics are all praise and honoring of the L-rd. I am quite happy with my purchase.


title: The plastic casing was completely broken!

text: The ELO music on the CD is very good. But the completely broken case (very small pieces to bigger broken pieces) was extremely disappointing.


title: JT and Christina

text: This CD is wonderful. They utilize excellent remix producers to put a new spin on the typical bubble-gum like sound. At first, when my girlfriend bought this CD two years ago I thought, "Here's more gum for the lil kids to chew on". However, that was not the case. Two of the tracks became fast driving highway music due to their deep grooves and base lines.


title: was in perfect condition, and was a very generous gift from ...

text: It came quickly, was in perfect condition, and was a very generous gift from Debbie!! We appreciated it and are using it in our ministry!!


title: Amazing!

text: Amazing group. Very high quality! I'm so impressed with them.


title: R&B the way it was meant to be

text: This album has a bit of MJ, a bit of Prince, a bit of Justin, and a bit of Elijah Henry. Add some Maxwell and some John Legend and you've got everything you could possibly want out of a Soul/R&B/Pop album. There's even a little bit of Marvin Gaye. Yep, it's a good album. Take a listen.


title: Amazing.

text: Vivid live recording. Like you were there. Enjoy!


title: I enjoy listening to my CD

text: Most definitely !!! I enjoy listening to my CD. I really enjoy the three tenors, IlVolo ...great group.


title: Music is awesome. Cons

text:
Pros: It's Man with a Mission. Music is awesome.

Cons: For $25 you get 4 songs.

1: Raise Your Flag
2: Stella
3: Far
4: Seven Dead Sins [Remix]

So you're spending about $6.25 a song.

Your choice if that's worth it, but as before. It's Man with a Mission.


title: Why didn't more hip-hop artists sample Nirvana?

text: If you remember hearing a rap song featuring an extended sample of Nirvana's biggest single, "Smells Like Teen Spirit," and a rapper with a British accent--well, this was that song.


title: 5 Stars here

text: Great item!!!!! Highly recommend!


title: save $$

title: It was worth it!

text: This was worth the cost. A true masterpiece.


title: Elevator Music

text: There are so many "Celtic Tributes" out there and the title of this recording implies that there will be celtic-sounding renditions and instruments. Even though Enya's music is inherently Celtic,the music on this CD has the feel of elevator music Enya. There are several  tracks by Taliesin Orchestra which can be found on a CD simply called Orinoco Flow by Taliesin. I spent nearly $30 on this disappointing recording.


title: Perfect for Irish Dancing practice.

text: This is a collection of appropriate, dance worthy jigs and reels. Mostly flute, not much (if any) percussion so get your hard shoes ready to play the beats. Tried and true traditional renditions.


title: Movie Addict

text: Loved the movie..


title: Bernard Herrmann's Overlooked TV Score Finally on CD

text: Bernard Herrmann is a master when it comes to atmospheric movie and TV music. I was happy to find this CD containing music from "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour." I love listening to it. Even without the images the music was intended to accompany, the score is outstanding. These selections don't rank with Herrmann's music from "Vertigo," "North By Northwest," or "Psycho," but they will remind you of his eerie and suspenseful background tracks for the original "Twilight Zone."  For Herrmann fans, this 2-disc CD is a welcome addition.


title: Dad's favorites

DAMN YOU SHOES!!!! WHHHYYYY?!?!?!?!

I have been a shoes fan for going on two years now. It has taken me a very long time to find their music online or off. Try finding this cd somewhere else on the web to buy - good luck! and then when it finally got here guess what? nearly every song on this cd i already have downloaded and the stuff i can't find to download isn't on the cd.

I'm still glad i bought the cd but to be honest i never listen to it because i already have most of downloaded. "America" is one i've been searching for forever and can't find anywhere. SHOES!!!! GIVE ME AMERICA!!! PLLLLLLLEASE!


title: Love it!

text: I’m really excited about this product. I work in special education and my students love learning with tactile objects. This is a great way to help them learn letter sounds, spelling, and reading.


title: Oldish but good

text: I ordered this cd....8 yrs ago and this still bangs. I miss og dubstep


title: Just as valuable as a burned disc!

text:
Honestly I write this review not as a customer but as a collector and a HUGE Evanescence fan.

Main point before I say anything: This CD is not authentic in any way. It was released in Russia by a company that specializes in bootlegs and fake CDs.

I do not own this, nor have I ever listened to it for quality purposes, but can honestly say, if you spend $130-$200 on a case with some fancy artwork (which is about all this amounts to when you could very easily make a CD-R and it would be just as snazzy), then you are a fool.

I've been lately doing a lot of research on their older stuff, and stumbled on this. When I saw the price, my mouth dropped. I figured I stumbled across a rarity, since Evanescence is probably the Queen of Rarities. I did my research, just before getting suckered into paying a fortune for scraps, and thank goodness I did. There are a lot of rarities out there, Mystary, Evanescence EP, Origin, Sound Asleep/Whisper EP, but this is as valuable as the case it's in and the art that they probably put on the disc. Save your $200 or so for if you ever come across a real rarity, and leave this piece of garbage where it lays.


title: Unsafe but pretty

text: Looks alone this is a very nice looking press.  But  there are a couple flaws that make this dangerous and frustrating.  1st it doesn't come apart completely  to clean it which is annoying but tolerable.  But more importantly the handle is not securely attached to the device so when its full of scalding hot water and you pick it up the handle slides off of it making it very possible to burn yourself very severly.  I wouldn't buy it again or recommend it.  But I may try to fix it with glass glue.  If you feel inclined to do so aswell, go for it, but you've been warned.


title: great

title: Joni James sings Hank Williams

text: Joni James was my favorite singer from my youth and she made some very memorable songs during the 50's while I was in high school.  Hank Williams is my favorite country singer of all time and what better combination than Joni and Hank joining up for a great musical treat.


title: One Star

text: It was cheaply made and of no value to me.


title: Great music! Must listen!

text: The good times when rock n roll was great!


title: One of country music best duos.

text: This husband and wife have been overlooked for too long. People rave over Gram and Emmylou but I personally believe this couple are the champs. Barry played with Barry and the Remains (touring with the Beatles in 1966), went on to play with both Gram Parsons in the International Submarine Band and Emmylou Harris in the Hot Band, then teamed up with his beautiful wife Holly to produce some of the purest harmonies (they've always reminded me of the Everly Brothers) and some of the finest country albums ever made, simple, soulful, and satisfying. With some of Nashville's finest session players and their twining voices they have produced album after album of great country music... don't overlook them and "Straw into Gold" is my personal favorite. Buy it (and everything else they've recorded.


title: Five Stars

text: Great voice, nice songs.  Very pleased with the purchase.


title: Service is fast great quality.

text: I liked everything about my order.


title: Disappointed listener....

text: I understand the seller said the record was in good condition.  However, that term is relative to an individual's assessment.  I was disappointed that two of the songs were distorted due to scratching.  I love this show.  i saw it in St. Louis in the '60's.  Many good memories.


title: recorded in 1993, but timeless.

text: powerful but minimal sound collages of guitars and drums with impressionistic lyrics and sincere vocals.  hauntingly beautiful and very addictive.


title: Flannery Bros.

text: Kind of fun, but not real usable for me.  I prefer songs that we can move to even though the content was good for young children.


title: Not what was advertised

text: The advertisement was for a CD. A record album was sent. I had to send it back.


title: Last recording before Szell's death

text:
The relationship between George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra constitutes one of history's outstanding musical partnerships.

Szell's passing came only two months after the Cleveland Orchestra's 1970 tour of East Asia, from which this two-CD set was taken. On the evidence of this May 22 concert, conductor and orchestra surpassed even their own critical benchmarks.

Also included is an interview with Pierre Boulez, who was conducting the orchestra the night Szell died. When the news came, he reports, "the orchestra was suddenly like an orphan." This recording is a magnificent tribute to a great musical alliance.


title: great buy!

text: This is seriously the best of the best of Adnan Sami! You get so much packed into this little package. music videos, and two cds! If you are a fan of Adnan Sami's work, this is a must have!


title: NOBODY BUT YOU, JACKIE

text:
The remastering and re-issuing of Jackie's original Brunswick LP's continues with what was sadly, the final LP recorded before his tragic collapse in September, 1975 which silenced his truly amazing voice. The original LP was not released until 1976 and by all reports was poorly promoted. This is a travesty as it is a magnificent LP and Jackie himself is quoted as saying just before he collapsed that he thought it was the best LP he had recorded. It was released in 1999 by Edsel with the 'Beautiful Day' LP but this is the first time release by itself. Once again the remastered sound by Toshiyuki Abe is superb. The booklet, as usual, contains lyrics to all the songs. The bonus track is the slightly longer instrumental version of 'Don't Burn No Bridges'. 'Don't Burn No Bridges' was released as a single a month after Jackie's collapse with this instrumental version as the B side. If I had to listen to just one singer for the rest of my life, it would be Nobody But You, Jackie.

Track listing:

Original LP
01 - Where Is Love
02 - You're The Song (That I Can't Stop Singing)
03 - Nobody But You
04 - Just Call My Name
05 - Just As Soon As The Feeling's Over
06 - Don't Burn No Bridges
07 - You'd Be Good For Me
08 - It Only Happens (When I Look At You)
09 - Satisfy My Soul
10 - I've Learned About Life

Bonus track

title: The Greatest Singer You've Never Heard Of

text:
Steve Brock is, in my opinion, the most anointed male singer on earth.  If I were comparing his voice to more known singes, I think he would have made as good of a Jean Valjean as Colm Wilkinson.  I would also compare him to when Tom Jones is at full voice.

But along with the exceptional voice, there is something that sets Brock apart from all the rest:  The touch of God.  Believe me when I tell you that I have NEVER heard him sing one time where the audience didn't want him to continue singing!  As a minister, he would almost never get to preach if he didn't want to; he could just keep singing, and everyone would go away just as happy as could be.

I recall at a campmeeting a number of years ago, the move of God was so strong as he sang that I honestly thought there would be no preaching.  And there wouldn't have been for probably any other minister.  But Bro. Brock knew that that would happen EVERY night if he didn't bring the song in for a landing.

Then, many years ago, in Tampa, Florida, he was holding a revival, and Nancy Harmon and her singers were helping out.  I got there late, and so had to sit on the very front row (which, of course, IS the best seat in the house, but I would have initially preferred to have just slipped in an sat in the back).  I don't know when I have wept so strongly in the presence of the Lord!  It was surely one of the most incredible moves of God I ever experienced.  And THAT night, he actually did not preach, but just kept on singing as the glory of God swept that vast auditorium.

Trust me when I tell you that you will not be disappointed with any Steve Brock recording.  He just has a touch that is unique in all of Christian music.

title: Came with everything!

text: I love this album. Even though I like both versions, I was very happy because I got MINO's. It came with the CD, photobook, and photocard. When I had a question, the seller replied back to me quickly and professionally. I'm very happy with my purchase!

title: Beautiful Iconic Songs

text: I feel that this is one of his best albums.  I have multiple copies of this CD and listen to it all the time whether it be individual songs or the entire album.  You won't be disappointed.  I love all his albums and music.


title: Love this singer!

text: I bought this cd because I love the songs on it. It'll be a great addition to my collection.


title: Amazing

text: Her music is so beautiful


title: stan talent stan nct

text: It was a little damaged but the album is great ! It came fast, which made me happy.


title: Fast shipping and a good product with better sound quality than off of a phone

text: Heize delivers a very nice assortment of songs on this EP. The sound surpasses what a digital signal off of a phone could provide, so it sounds noticeably (in my opinion) better on this CD. A good purchase!


title: Great music that you'll enjoy

text: I just love Atlantic Starr and this has many of their greatest hits. I would recommend it even if you are not a big fan of Atlantic Starr.  It's  a nice collection for easy listening. You'll enjoy it! Worth every penny.


title: Five Stars

text: love it


title: Case was damaged

text: When I took the plastic off of the case, the case fell apart and the cd fell right out. The front of the case did have a small crack on it (you can see it by Shelton).  Luckily the cd itself was not damaged.


title: Very good cd of some great hymns

text: Very good cd of some great hymns!! I listen to it going to work in the mornings. What a wonderful way to start a workday!!


title: Paul Young "Rock Swings"

text: Love hearing something new from Paul.  It's a different sound and his voice has mellowed over the years but if you're a true fan you will welcome this new Paul.


title: Movie soundtracks

text: The soundtrack from "Rome Adventure", a movie that was 25 years old before CDs were invented.  The sound is better than the LP. . .but then my sound system is better now!  The music is beautiful and I have missed it terribly. Thanks again, Amazon.com. Once again, you have saved the day!


title: Hard to find but worth the buy.

text: Mushroomhead is one of my absolute favorite groups, so I may be a bit biased, but Damn! The best description I can give this is all the hard and heavy sounds of Mushroomhead got together to make this album.


title: Lovely

text:
Ok, I'll admit I would have never bought this if I had never heard of Babymetal and little Nakamoto Suzuka was not one of the Karen Girls.

That being said, the CD is disturbingly good.

text:
I gave it four out of five stars not because it isn't good, but because I was hoping Verishuvi & Please, Please, Please were on 2010.  Since purchasing I figured out they are on 2011 and have ordered it.  In context, Doki Doki Morning seems out of place with the rest of the Album, but I'm one of those that wouldn't have ever purchased this if it hadn't been for Babymetal.

title: Tupelo Honey refines their sound and manages to diversify; further building on total excellence

text:
Canadian rockers Tupelo Honey are back with yet another EP, "Machines & Robots". Continuing the tradition, they bend normal record industry conventions and compile a handful of A-sides into one short but powerful punch, instead of a full length production that would take longer to come along and quite possibly require a bit of the dreaded "filler" treatment. Nope, Tupelo sticks to their yearly release cycle, and so far, it's working brilliantly!

Machines & Robots is a refined and more "produced" record than their previous works. The style is a bit more varied, ranging from poppy anthemic empowerment to somber and melodic. The first single, "Morphine", is an infectious, angst-ridden Hard Rock epic with a crunchy yet delicate and melodic soundscape. Here we see Landry in top vocal form, delivering top notch vocals that walk a line between Pop and Hard Rock, while avoiding a sense of insincere pandering that so many bands engage in to garner sales.

Tupelo Honey is probably one of the most unselfish and loyal bands I've come across. I think that, first and foremost, a band should make music that pleases them personally. And these guys do. But they also know that to keep their fanbase longterm, they need consistency. Thanks to the band's innovative approach to publishing, fans get the best of their blood, sweat, and tears from the previous year with none of filler that is so often littered through mainstream rock LPs today.

Machines & Robots takes the electronic sound and amps it up with a more robotic, yet beautifully emotive sharpness that is a rarity in today's musical climate. I cannot say enough about these guys; they are our best kept secret here in Canada (shout out to my family in Edmonton!) and I hope that one day we'll see them break into the US market, because their style is totally conducive and so refined at this stage of their career - the potential is staggering.

This is Tupelo's best work, hands down. You won't likely find it in stores if you're in the states, but you can buy it on itunes or order it from various other online distributors. I couldn't stress enough how glad you will be that you copied this to your hard drive!


title: FIRE! BOMBER!

text: Great music from a great anime. I would totally recommend getting this if you're a fan of Macross and you don't mind the long waiting time.


title: Gread Vocal Jazz

text: If you missed their version of Africa by Toto, then you should go to You Tube and see for yourself what a magnificent version as Professor Paris Rutherford of the University of North Texas said "The title song is so amazing and effective that I found myself reaching for an umbrella" And the rest of the album is just as good. There are two medleys on this album that are outstanding. One is their version a "Earth, Wind & Fire" medley and the other is "Bee Gees" medley. All are outstanding. forgive me but I have become a great fan in the last 6 months. Jimmy Alexander ((Retired Longshoreman from the Port of Houston.


title: Blast from the Past!

text: Heard this record first in NYC in the 70s.  Searched for it for years.  Could not find it even from Duck's Breath!  Now at last it is mine!  This is a "transportation" piece, imho.  Don't leave home without it!


title: Best Sisters live performance ever!

text: This is the Sisters raw! The band lineup from Vision Thing are tight and well rehearsed with Andrew snarling through most of the songs adding to the energy of the performance. Without a doubt, this is the best unofficially released live album of all time!


title: Yelstin rocks and Yeltsin grooves!

text:
I really love the "A Closer Walk With Yeltsin" CD. Yeltsin is a band from Eugene Oregon, Northwest United States. I bought the CD (rather than the mp3 downloads) because I like having the CD and the artwork. Since I grew up in the Eugene area I am partial to the band but I did not know this until I heard a couple of the songs on an indie rock station. After hearing those two songs "Meditations" and "Rivers" I just had to have the CD. Since buying the CD, other songs have taken on a familiarity and I now have 2 more songs I totally love: "Sterling" and "We Will Be A Factory". The music is melodic and catchy and yet there is something raw and fresh and retro all at the same time. I recommend giving Yeltsin a try if your an old school rocker as well as someone who likes progressive alternative. They're great! I hope they continue to make more good music like this, because I'm hooked.

By the way. I had no trouble getting the CD shipped to me. It took a little longer than expected (probably because mp3 downloads are becoming more popular these days), but it was worth the wait! It's mine and you can't have it.


title: Just as Remembered

text: I had this as a kid and lost it. Glad I found it again.


title: New viollinist?

text:
I love the selections on this CD!  However, the overall tone is a bit weak.

I can't tell if it's the instrument Ling Wang is playing, his technique, or the recording action.

Would enjoy knowing more about HIM.


title: Great album, our favorite!

text: Excellent Album! Wonderful performers, excellent harmonies!


title: FANTASTIC!

text: This IS Eddie Shaw, if you only have one THIS is the one to have! Great tunes covering his career, sound quality is excellent!


title: He was delighted!

text: I gave this to my son as a birthday gift. He was born when this song was very popular. He was delighted!


title: Amazing musicians!

text: Great album!!


title: X Japan gems

text: This adds to my live album collection of X-Japan albums. I’m glad I’m able to have these gems that are fading away with time. I love this album because it’s Taiji’s last show before he was fired. This band is the reason why we have bands sucks as: Versailles, Luna Sea, Babymetal, The Gazette and One Ok Rock. This band is the reason why Japanese music is always worth checking out.


title: I love it, 10/10 would recommend

text: Came in under two weeks and overall good product. It came with two free photocards and a HUGE poster, but I'm not complaining. I'm pretty happy with this purchase and I dont regret buying it


title: I love it

text: It came fast, took less than two weeks to arrive and I got it 3 days earlier than I was supposed to. Its really high quality and it was perfect. No dents, no scratches, nothing. Plus I got all my biases so I am really happy with it.


title: Pure pop pleasure

text:
If you're a fan of the the Beatles, the Raspberries or Ben Folds (without the attitude), you have to listen to the Nines. Most songs feature Beatlesque chord progressions and are anchored by piano. And I must say that the opener, "I Would Never" is a perfect song - instantly hummable melody and gorgeous harmonies.

I also recommend "Calling Distance Stations," their follow-up to "Properties of Sound." It's even better.


title: Four Stars

text: Like new. Great CD


title: like the show

text:
The TV show and its soundtrack have been overplayed, exploited and rehashed through the meat grinder for the last decade, even ABC reduced the whole package into a rap tune for one of its promos. Yet, despite the onslaught from commercialization Lucy originally hinted at in the special, Charles Shultz’s holiday tome remains steady classic, thanks mainly to the simple level of sincerity.

The soundtrack has become a staple that doesn’t wear out its welcome with syrupy sentimentality that, say, Johnny Mathis and Michael Bublet (or however you spell his last name) are known for. I’ve heard the opening track, the jazz coolness of O Tannanbuam, so many times and yet, I don’t feel sluggish or overwhelmed; it’s calm, breezy and, like the show, intimate. It doesn’t force itself down your throat and easily puts you in the holiday mood.

Sure, the merchandising behind the show and album is annoying as hell, but once you carve this crust off the edges and throw it away, it reminds you of a philosophy and time when, as Lewis Black once ranted, Santa wasn’t “sticking his ass” into the economy. Now, if I can get around hearing Linus & Lucy covers for the rest of the year!


title: Fired from the hip

text: Worth every penny.


title: Perfect product arrived ahead of expectation

text: I had this CD before and really enjoyed it. Some SNAFU with my iTunes account and I could neither access the song nor find the original CD. This one must be outside of ENation's current licensing because I couldn't download it from iTunes. I was super happy to find it, in perfect condition for a smoking price. Arrived before I expected it. Very happy.


title: Five Stars

text: Love it all!


title: Very satisfied with purchase!

text: This was a great, fun session with two aspiring and talented teen artists. It felt kind of like Simon and Garfunkel revisited; love it!

title: DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM

title: Great slippers!!

text: These slippers were perfect! My boyfriend pretty much refuses to take them off. They fit great and  look very nice! These are good quality, especially for the price!!


title: Engaging debut from a neo-psychedelic folk prodigy

text: California musician Gwendolyn first caught many listeners' ears with "Freedom of the Heart (Ooodily Ooodily)," the infectious and deceptively childlike tune featured in the film Chuck and Buck. While her talents are apparent in this banjo-driven pop ditty, it doesn't prepare the listener for the stylistic range and sophistication of the other songs on her debut CD Ultrasounds, a collection of eclectic, neo-psychedelic, modern folk compositions. An unusually inventive songwriter, Gwendolyn has a gift for combining surrealism, humor, and emotional acuity with precise arrangements that waste nary a note.


title: Awesome!

text: This DVD is absolutely a must-have for anybody who has ever gone thru hurts & disappointments,& who hasn't? It comes from the scriptural viewpoint of trusting God,no matter what!! I can recommend this movie 100%!


title: A lost classic from the mercurial tunesmith Scott Paterson.

text: Paterson was a rising alt country legend in the making, but his break up with lead guitarist Ben Robertaccio doomed the band and any chance for future success.

text: awesome CD great band glad they made it, today is bitter sweet as of Bruce Crumps passing yesterday I will cherish this album


title: Straight ahead, no b.s. rock n' roll!

text: Short, simple, and sweet. Eight songs at a little over 20 minutes, The Fellow Americans trims the fat and goes straight for the jugular. Not quite punk, not quite metal, but definitely full throttle rock n' roll. Every track is gold, from "Shake It Up" to "CBL". Fantastic!


title: Feel My FREEDOM

text: Arrived well packaged! Shipping speed was pretty decent. The case had some damage to it but I’m not too worried about it. Thank you. 😊


title: Must have!! Don't sleep on this one

text:
I can't believe no one has written a review on this fantastic CD!! Don't get this twisted with the "Country Preacher live at operation bread basket" Cd.This one is filled with more selections played by an outstanding band.There is a lot less talk and a whole lot of playing."Miles Away" Is a 13 minute tour de force with solo's to die for by this group recorded in front of a live audiance."The Jive Samba" and "This home" will have you moving with joy. They come with eleven minutes of gut filling Jazz .I came upon this Cd while looking for the classic rendition of "Fiddler on the roof" played on Sirrus radio.It was my first time hearing it by Cannonball. Just like "My favorite things" with John Coltrane and "We free Kings" and Roland Kirk, Adderley put's his mark on this song and how!!
This CD is VERY hard to find and is a bargin even at the prices here.
Once your friends hear your copy, They will be upset because they "Can't find it anywere" Just do a search, It's a rare bird indeed.


title: Three Stars

text: Old album But love this Miracle album will be turning into a CD and be very happy and blessed!

title: he is the GOAT

text: I have been a fan of Richard Pryor since I was a kid, and this album is one of my favorites. It has some of his most hilarious and iconic routines, like "Mudbone", "Wino Dealing with Dracula", and "Acid". Pryor is a master storyteller who can make you laugh out loud with his witty observations, vivid characters, and outrageous situations. He also tackles serious topics like racism, addiction, and sexuality with honesty and courage. This album showcases his genius and versatility as a comedian and a human being. If you love comedy, you need to listen to this album. It is the very best of Richard Pryor indeed.

title: A complete waste of time and money

text: I purchased this product 7 months ago and listened to it religiously for 6 months solid and....nothing! I made a point of listening every day at the same time and played all 3 tracks most of the time, but never fewer than 2 tracks. I have derived absolutely no benefit whatever from listening to Insight,despite the inflated claims that have been made about this audio CD. Frankly it is a complete waste of time and money as it DOES NOT deliver on the claims made about it. I hate to see people ripped off and that is exactly what you will be if you make the big mistake of purchasing this product. The only reason I have given a rating of one star is because there was no zero option available.


title: Great conductor, If only the manufacturing were up that level

text: What a great conductor. If only several of the tracks did not skip or make pop sounds, including the very first track of the first disc. All the discs LOOK fine, but the same problem showed up on both players, so the problem is in the pressing. Frustrating.<br />REVISION 27 Dec. 2021: Scribendum sent me a replacement CD #1, which was the worst one. So they are on to the problem. IF you get a faulty CD #1, emailing Scribendum should help.


title: You'll hear the sound quality difference immediately

text: Terrific sound quality compared to domestic CD releases. I've seen wide change in availability<br />N.B. I believe that the newest Warner releases with the lovely old LP cover reproductions do NOT have this fine, re-mastered sound, so look for this release only, IMHO.


title: Very interesting Schubert 9

text:
t. The conductor is a classicist, but not a metronome.
The 2nd movement made my ears perk up: The build to the dynamic climax was quite dramatic enough, then the long pause... then Blech came back to the opening theme with a lightness and care-free quality that seemed out of place given what had come before, until I realized that the conductor was implying that the crisis described in that climax actually took care of the "problem" and it was OK to move on. I am drawn  to heart wringing drama, but I liked this approach once I considered it. Furtwangler, it isn't.
This was my first exposure to Leo Blech; I'll keep my eye out for more.
The blurb on the back of the CD speaks of Blech being hounded out of Germany for "his Jewish faith." Well, Jewish DNA maybe, but I cannot find anything in his bio to suggest "Jewish faith" since he stayed as long as he could, came back as soon as he could, and... I'll leave the rest out since it's not relevant to this review. A fine conductor, for sure.
N.B. This listing is an overly expensive alternate: If you look for this CD under "Piano Con. 2, Schubert 9, Audite" you'll find the real listing for this CD at a better price.


title: Rave from amazon (dot) de:

text:
Not my review, but a translation from an amazon review in Germany that  you might find useful:
  This complete recording of the Beethoven Piano Sonatas is a real surprise. I knew from Mueller recordings with Liszt and Chopin which I really liked. I hesitated with Beethoven. Can Jean Muller really say something new compared to the recordings of Claudio Arrau, Alfred Brendel, Emil Gilels, Wilhelm Kempf and Rudolf Buchbinder, which I already have in my collection? Well - he can! There are always moments when you just wonder how logical and consistent everything sounds. First there is the choice of tempi, which is almost always perfect. No completely decadent Adagios (such as Gilels in the 5th Sonata), no exaggerated speed records in the Hammerklavier Sonata.

The recordings were made as part of concert recordings in the Luxembourg Philharmonic, the recording quality is outstanding.

Really recommended!


title: Great performances but that's not uppermost in my mind

text: Great performances but the price here is off the charts. This listing is a trick. Search for this without the words "original jackets" and you'll find that this identical item is a fraction of what's asked here. You're welcome.<br />BTW, there is a Szell Edition with these masterings and the Beethoven set in Original Jackets and MORE, like 49 CDs total, all DSD masters. Look around.


title: Jaw-droppingly great... DON'T BUT THIS

text:
If you love great orchestral performances, you MUST have a LOT of Markevitch.
So why 4 stars? To get your attention. At HMV across the Pacific there is a 33 CD set now out on Venias that has all these performances in excellent transfers and a whole lot more. Generous timings, NO BOOKLET (just individual labeled sleeves; a pain) and intense, individual, kinetic, imaginative conducting. Mostly from Philips, DG, and Melodiya, so your Icon box is not redundant. Even the mono Mozart symphonies had me dancing.
While you are at it, the same label has a 33 CD box of Ancerl, mostly stolen in good sound from Supraphon. Get both and see why today's conductors are mostly boring, despite the richer sound (which you won't think about while listening to these).


title: Great performances, but this set is now available as ...

text: Great performances, but this set is now available as a budget release on Eloquence... and it has  been Re-Mastered, AND it has an extra performance of the Sym. #3... AND it is cheaper than this box as of this date.


title: Grand and lovely... but watch it.

text: I'm listening to the 104 from this set right now. It's great big band Haydn... BUT DO NOT BUY THIS here; check around for the identical item at Amazon for 1/4 of your heard earned assets. This seller has a way of putting up duplicate listings that fool potential purchasers. Watch out.


title: Re-packaged and re-issued so many times for less; check around.

text: These performances have a lot of fire, and the recording quality is decent, but look around here at Amazon for this same item at a fraction of the price asked.  This seller has no conscience. You'll thank me.


title: It looks like a deal, but it sure isn't.

text: These performances have a lot of fire, and the recording quality is fine, but look around here at Amazon for this same item at a fraction of the price asked.  You'll thank me.


title: Gosh, Full retail price is 1/2 of this. I can't figure out this listing.

text: These performances have a lot of fire, and the recording quality is decent, but look around here at Amazon for this same item at a fraction of the price asked.  You'll thank me.


title: Can't find better performances, but you can do better in other ways...


title: This is an old item, now repackaged many times over


title: This looks like quite a bargain at first


title: What wonderful set of symphonies for only 40 USD!

text: I loved getting this box for only 40 bucks on this very site under another listing. Check around and you can do the same.


title: Not your best value by far

text: Fine performance, as is well known. If you search Amazon with different key words, you will find this item for a LOT LESS money than is being asked here. Be prudent, and take a few seconds to do that.


title: And Audite has an SACD of this for much less


title: Consider the box set


title: You want to pay 10 times more than you have to?


title: Fine performance, as is well known


title: These performances included in a box set

text: Hard to beat these performances; enjoy them in the multi-CD box of Ormandy's Columbia and RCA recordings for a tiny little sum.  This item is obsolete, and probably has more primitive mastering as well.


title: Decca 32 CD Ansermet French Music box here early 2014

text: A complete 32 CD version of this is available now for about $90 USD "Ansermet FRENCH music." A much better value than this item, obviously. Also now out: Ansermet's RUSSIAN and EUROPEAN boxes.


title: Generic, boring performances, OK recorded sound, cheap in other editions

text: I heard these performances when they came out some 20+ years ago.  They lack excitement and imagination.  The sound quality is "big" and lacking in detail.  If for some reason you must have them, amazon has many "club" editions of this set, often released in 2 3-CD sets.  They can be purchased for about $2; so shipping will cost you more than the CDs themselves.<br />Which seems right to me.


title: Great performance; mediocre sound. Get Archipel edition for $12

text: See my review of the Archipel edition that came out in 2011 with this performance AND some Wagner and Haydn as well.  Lots of distortion, unbelievable performance.  Again, as of this date get the Archipel release.


title: STEREO set of classic performances.

text:
All these performances were recorded from 1961 to 1966 and are, it seems, all STEREO.
The 60 minute Bruckner #7 from Hague is terrific, as is the Brahms #4, unusually energetic Mozart Symphonies with the Paris Opera in 1963, and very stylish Johann Strauss with the Vienna Opera Orch in 1963.  The Brandenburg Concertos from Zurich might have been his last recordings.  I didn't find the Mendelssohn overtures or the Schubert 9 better than, say, Wand, but the Wagner overtures (with a luscious, 17 minute suite from Act 3 of Meistersinger) was superb.  Sound a little bright and brittle at times, but quite good enough.  The Schumann 3rd set speed records at 29 minutes.
In general, think Gunther Wand, but often with quite a bit more "ooomph."


title: Longest Beethoven #5 in the history of the universe?

text: Tempos like Celibidache EMI, but with 1st and 4th movement repeats, make this a 39+ minute LvB #5.  Of course it feels a lot more Teutonic and less (shall we say?) Buddhist. Except for a couple of Furtwanglerian pauses, the performance moves and it works.  The Schubert is similar to Sinopoli Philharmonia.  Sound quality is good radio broadcast stereo from 1968.  Vienna Phil in good form; good balances and microphone placement; the timpani and cellos come through dramatically.  With the tension of concert performances you get just a few audience noises and enthusiastic applause at the end of each symphony.


title: Pakula's classic rates high praise for score!

text: This breathtaking, but simplistic to the point of obvious brevity score has been too long overdue for some form of release.  The score for All The Presidents Men is one of my favorites of all time due to it's unnerving realism, and to speak of again, simplistic approach utilizing brass, piano, and some strings kept to a modicum.  The extra unused cues, or alternative takes recorded at Warner Bros, added and helped pad the already short number of cues used in the actual Pakula cut.  A definite plus to any respectable collection!


title: You Are In For A Treat!

text: This is my all time favorite CD of mandolin music. I have listened to it over and over and find so many of the tunes just so gorgeous and relaxing. Listening to these tunes puts me in such a good mood, like spending time with old friends. The  skill of the musicians is extremely high and the range of music presented very well thought out. Enjoy! You will!


title: Best music

text: I like all of his music and wanted a copy of the best since he passed away.

text: The best


title: A true collectors item

text: Stunning complete set in beautiful condition. All17 volumes and the hardbound book. An amazing find. Remarkable this set is 52 years old and looks like new. Will truly enjoy this listening experience.


title: Catchy groove

text: This is a good dance groove with a catchy, while relatively monotonous theme (which of course is typical for this genre of music) Nevertheless, I find it very appealing.  I would rate it as top 100, perhaps top 40 dance chart material, it stands out among much of the techno stuff I've been listening to lately.  Good rave stuff.


title: Powerful CD (Meeting Alzheimer's)

text: This is a must purchase for anyone who loves someone with Alzheimer's disease. Jade has helped me in countless ways. She has taught me to "enjoy the moments" with my mother and to put aside the pain I feel when I see her. Not everyone can have a personal relationship with Jade, but this CD is the next best thing.


title: Powerful Christmas music by a talent gone too soon

text: I bought two of these for Chritmas gifts, one for someone who has met Ms. Norman twice. I have the Christmastide CD by her, since a TV special many years ago, and enjoy it every holiday season.

Excellent John Prine gig across 2 x CDs from 1978 in NYC. A very spirited performance and a real rarity to find for fans of this superb singer and songwriter.


I agree with other reviewers who have said just how lovely this CD is, taken from a 1982 live Linda Ronstadt is. I know a lot of fans may prefer Linda's mid 1970s work, but this era for me was when this lady was at her peak and this can be heard to great effect on this album. Particularly touching is the version here of Jimmy Webb's superb song, The Moon Is a harsh Mistress, known best in its version by Judy Collins, Linda's rendition is pure perfection.

title: They must be giving knighthoods away....

text:
Sometimes it all comes together, sometimes it doesn't.  Here is an example of it not coming together.
The soloists in the Mass in C minor are  of a "good" high school level, the control of sound and pitch aren't there.
The orchestra labors through the mass as if they were knee deep in Mahler.  The lightness and clarity of Mozart aren't here - neither in the conducting, singing, playing or engineering.

Makes a nice frisbee though.


title: My top favorite band!!

text:
When the lead singer of the band sent me a copy of this cd, I was instantly impressed. Each song has a distinct style and flavor, and yet they all flow together into a well organized album. These guys really knew what they were doing, and it's a shame they didn't get noticed. If you can't find the cd here, look for it somewhere else!

Buy copies! Make copies! Give them to your friends, because the Newsboys need to be heard!


title: EASY LISTENING FROM AROUND THE WORLD, BUT MOSTLY ISRAEL

text: Excellent easy listening with "schmaltz."  Yoel Dan, or as I knew him in the old days, Julio, knows how to deliver a song, whether in Hebrew, English, Spanish or whatever language Yoel sings in, he and the trio are the BEST!!!


title: A big fan!

text: What a talented man! Not really a huge name in music like some but a better guitar player than most of them.He played what he wanted to play you gotta respect him for that.I saw him a few years ago in a small club in Temple,Tx. playin' great as ever! Little did I know he would be gone a year later.He will be missed by many!  An Old Fan,Willis

title: Great music but the LP is not in great shape.

text: I was so excited to get my copy of this record, which brings memories from my childhood. Nevertheless, when I played it, my disappointment came immediately because the record has a scratch on my favorite song, which makes the stylus jump. Otherwise, the condition of the record is acceptable and the music is amazing.


title: Awesome !!

text: Symphonic Metal Masterpiece.  Great production all around.


title: Wonderful, kitschy fun!

text: I fell in love with these guys the first time I happened upon the video for Unicorns L.A.  If you haven't seen it do yourself a favor and google Unicorns L.A. and watch it, then contact the band and buy this CD directly from them.  Oh, and if you ever have the chance to see them live, don't you dare miss it.


title: Not so bad!

text:
I saw this on opening night years ago and still remember lots about it.  Definitely flawed but not so bad.  It's a good recording..Diener is a little over the top and too old but so what.  Worth a try.

title: Interesting but...

text: Very interesting for me as a jazz violinist deeply interested in the history of the violin in jazz, but Peter Compo is in no danger of challenging the great masters like Grappelli or recent virtuosi like Florin Niculescu or Didier Lockwood.


title: The Search Is Over

text: I have been looking for a recording of the Melody Four Quartet for decades (I had five of their seven LPs).  The quality of the CD is top-rate, and once more I can enjoy the rich tones of their singing.

title: Great Tunes

text: Pop gems from ex-XTC’ers Colin Moulding and Terry Chambers. Too bad just an EP as every tune is highly listenable. Colin is as always a great songwriter and obviously has more to say. Great drum sound as any old fan will recall from the XTC heyday. Stand out track is “Scatter Me”. Hopefully more coming from these guys. Just need Dave Gregory back in the mix!


My favorite Va Beach local band from the 90's. Amazing stories within the folk rock lyrics. Brings me back to a special time period!

title: Every note birthed from the heart of a loving God

title: Brilliant and timeless electronic ambient music

text: I’ve had this album since it came out and to today it stands as one of the most unique and powerful electronica albums ever made.  It has a super unique style blending majestic layers of synths with unique and subtle chants, instruments that are rare but somehow work and more.  Each track has its own unique message and all of them fit together.  It’s epic, rare and brilliant.


title: Excellent

text: Great music


title: Chabuca Granda is great !

text: I really enjoyed listening to this CD. Chabuca has an earthy voice which carries these songs so well. I have never heard of her before which must show my ignorance, because she must be a legend. She sounds like she really lives her music.


title: Darker but better

text: Before I start this review I'd like to say that the very fact that this CD is barely known and kind of went 'Under the radar" whereas Fallen became quite famous is a true shame. I guess people heard how dark the CD is and got scared that Evanescence was a bunch of super depressed kids when that is simply not the case. If you get their DVD you will see that they are actually quite goofy at times, but that's besides the point. This CD is much darker than Fallen, but a lot better in my opinion. Whisper, My Immortal and Lies are 3 of my favorite tracks and the opening is truly artistic and it grabs you and pulls you in.


...if there ever was ᵢᶠ&˚ᵣ is ᵢᶠ&˚ᵣ will be love, she would be IT...


title: CD was in brand new

text: Plays perfect


title: Ok, this is personal...but 5 stars nonetheless!

text: I am so happy to find this CD here!  I played drums with Chris and the Cain Sisters Band in and around Austin 1978-1980.  I'm out of the music biz for a while now but I will always remember his tasty guitar work and vocals.  Sorry he's not with us any longer.<br />Good tunes and good production on the album.


title: Paul McCartney still the best.

text: I enjoy anything Beatles related and saw Paul with Wings in Foxboro, Mass and in Hartford with a newer lineup after 2001 in Hartford. I love Rockshow and all Pauls other shows. I recently saw this concert on Palladia TV and don't recall seeing the LOGO  in the top left of the screen. When I watch a movie or a concert , I like to lose myself in the moment; and picture myself in the audience enjoying every minute. However the continuous LOGO spoils it for me. The music is great. Too bad.. Try Halifax, Nova Scotia 2009.


title: Reall?

text: This price is ridiculous


title: The Island / Orca Soundtracks

text: I was looking at the Island Soundtrack which is way overpriced with only 10 tracks when I came across this. So I took a chance on this The Island / Orca soundtrack cd and was pleasantly surprised. You get 2 soundtracks, first The Island 10 tracks and they sound the same as the single soundtrack Varese Edition,secound Orca 12 tracks that sound the same as the single soundtrack from Intermezzo Media. Third there are 2 bonus tracks The Red Tent & The Untouchables,so you get a total of 24 tracks. This is an Import but this cd sounds good and comes with neat artwork.


title: New Swiss Family Robinson

text: This is the music from the 1998 tv movie The New Swiss family Robinson. Music sounds very clear and flows nicely from track to track. Cd comes in case with artwork and also comes with a booklet.


title: WOW , The Banana Splits CD

text: I was shopping online and I can't believe I came across this cd. When I got it I played it and I could not believe this is the original songs and music for 1960's The Banana Splits Show. As a couple of the other reviews reads there are a couple of songs missing,but most of them are on this cd and they sound great and boy does this cd bring back memories. I gave this cd only 4 stars because of the missing songs. CD comes in case with cool artwork on it.


title: 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea 1997 TV Movie

text: This is the music from the 1997 tv movie. Cd is clear and sounds good. The music has a nice flow to it as you listen to this cd. CD comes in cd case with artwork on it.


title: Hellfighters - Leonard Rosenman

text: Hellfighters soundtrack finally on cd. This is the music from the movie. The cd sounds very good and clear. Cd comes in cd case with nice artwork on it. Also comes with a 15 page booklet with some information about the movie and music. If you are like me and enjoy these soundtracks from the older movies you will like this.


title: Christmas Classics

text: If you like these old classic Christmas songs as I do you will not be dissapointed.I got this mainly for Twas the Night Before Christmas by Bob Keeshan (Captain Kangaroo),but I enjoy all 10 tracks.

text: have wanted this song for awhile it was hard to find glad i finally got it


title: Lots of bang for the buck!

text: Just purchased this 10-CD set yesterday for $20 and I love it.  Contains many artists that I didn't know about and many that I already did but for anyone who is a fan of the blues this set is a must.  You get your usual...BB King, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, Bo Diddley, Albert King etc but many, many others such as Screamin Jay Hawkins, Jack McVea, Danny Overbea, Blind Boy Fuller, Smiley Lewis, Sleepy John Estes etc.  The packaging is OK...2-5 CD plastic cases contained within a carboard cover.  The liner notes are nothing special....lists the song, artist, and year of production.  The only knock is that a few of the songs aren't of the greatest quality but that is to be expected when the song is coming from say 1934 like Big Bill Broonzy's Mississippi River Blues.  Overall this is a tremendous box set for someone looking to learn more about the blues or for someone who wants to add to their already established collection of songs.  Pick it up...you will not be disappointed!

title: Much like the "Classic Albums" set released by Sony Music a ...

text: All 5 of these albums are must owns for any Molly Hatchet fanatic. Much like the "Classic Albums" set released by Sony Music a few years back, you can't complain about the content or the price. 5 cds in slip covers that feature the original album artwork. There's no lyric sheet, no rear cover art, and the cd's are just basic black with the MH logo with the album title silkscreened on. The Sony set did include the original rear album cover artwork, but probably only those of us who owned the originals on vinyl really noticed that anyway. All five later day Hatchet studio recordings for a little more than the price of 1 new cd. You can't  beat that with a stick !!!


title: Excellent music from a Russian power metal band!!!

text: A superb album from a Russian hard rock/metal band Aria. The riffs, the leaks, the awesome soaring solos, the singing, the overall roundness are simply perfect. Even though it's being sung in Russian, it still would sound enjoyable for the English-speaking listener for the singer is awesome and he's got a beautiful voice, which commands perfectly. Iron Maiden and Dio come to mind. In Russia it's been a classic since its release in the 80s. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who likes classic and power metal ala Dio, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, etc. It's simply a top notch album.


title: Great Album!!!

text: Great album from a Russian heavy metal band Ariya. Awesome music, awesome singing. If you don't mind singing in Russian, you will enjoy the music, because it's a real high class power metal with its ups and downs. Somewhere along the line of Iron Maiden, Scorpions and Dio.


title: Rockin' album. Worth getting.

text: Great album. Understand that this is a soundboard recording. The audience cheers and noise is toned now greatly. So what you are hearing is just the band. Some will like it, some will not. I loved it. Its from 1995 in Japan. It has plenty of songs not on other live albums from Kiss. Like  "Tears Are Falling, Domino(My favorite).


title: Almost a 5!

text: Great songs, great artists.But come on, the live version of "Messin' With The Kid" by Junior Wells and Buddy Guy. Some one must of recorded this waste of time with a recorder stuffed in his shirt! Yes it sounds that bad!


title: Gift

text: Got this for my sister and she really enjoys it 👍


title: Sounds Great

text: Just got this a week ago for my brother and he really enjoys it. I've ordered a couple more CDs and they're great.👍


I would be very concerned on where they got the source material for the pressing.  The only recordings available are digital. The DVD or YouTube videos.  If you're just looking to own this because you need to own Everthing Pearl Jam go for it but if you're looking for the superior sound quality you'll find on Vinyl I don't think you're going to find it here.  Just Buy the 3 disc 2cd/1DVD reissue of Ten. The unplugged performance is on DVD and is just as great as you remember I just think this Vinyl would be a waste of your money.


title: Can shake believers of science

text: I'm a yoga practitioner and yoga says that mind is superior to body. So we should be able to control our body with our thoughts but science has traditionally said DNA controls everything. I'm so happy I've been to relate thoughts from yoga based way of life and biology. Yoga way of life I got from Sunil Sheoran's [[ASIN:0981192106 Mylife Framework: A Model For A Successful Life Based On The Yoga Principles]] and thoughts on biology from this book. This book will break many established beliefs of science and again will prove that there are lot of things that are still not resolved by traditional science. I'd suggest both these books, if you want to have answers for all or most of the questions on life. Of course, not everyone is intellectual and open minded enough to grasp the powerful thoughts presented in these books.


title: Phenomenal CD

text: I just wish he would make more CDs.

title: Each CD gets better, the last CD is awesome, modern, impressionistic

text:
In my view these compositions are essential works in understanding the history of classical guitar music. Angelo Gilardino is a gifted, inspired composer who understands the complexity of the guitar and is able to compose very rich, dense and multifaceted sounding works for solo guitar. The music landscape is very modern and impressionistic. Most are diatonic and beautiful although a few very dissonant. The last CD 49-60 is my favorite.

Cristiano Porqueddu does a good job performing. Although it seems a bit too dry for my taste, partly from a very closely placed microphone and lack of reverb. Occasionally he seems a bit out of tune, although possibly this is from the tightly placed microphone. I have struggled playing many of these for years, in fact I thought some were impossible to play but Mr. Porqueddu proved me to be wrong. Porqueddu produces very little string noise despite the incredible dexterity needed to perform these wonderful compositions. Mr. Gilardino has a very unique sound which seems rooted in impressionistic music and quartal harmony. A few are too dissonant for my taste, most are extremely beautiful. I highly recommend the CD's. Most have a simple syncopation and are focused on rich harmony with simple melody. Many have long repeating ostinatos that are harmonized by rich complex jazzy chords. Gilardino is a deep composer who is able to modulate to guitar friendly keys while managing to sound natural. For example Studio n 49 Paesaggio Ligure modulates from B major to Am and sounds fantastic. The sheet music is equally impressive.

Mr Gilardino is at home with the premier echelon of guitar composers like Leo Brouwer, Hector Villa Lobos and Tôru Takemitsu.

RIP Angelo Gilardino, he died January 14 2022 the greatest  Italian composer, guitarist, and musicologist.

title: Excellent

text: Excellent music to chill by


title: Amazing solo record from under-the-rader singer who should be way more popular

text: Everything Is Energy's self-titled release is a culmination of several DIY projects from former Unified Theory frontman Chris Shinn. When you hear Shinn's undeniably recognizable and incredibly unique voice you wonder right away why this guy isn't more popular. The Everything Is Energy project has changed names more than once as different players came and went, (Move As A Verb, The Sound I Saw & Ouroboros just to name a few), but don't let that disuade you. If anything the fantastic talent of revolving musicians acts as the prefect session players to support Shinn's languid crooning pipes. The tracks move through a few styles but you soon find that there are absolutely no throw-away tracks here at all. In fact, it quickly becomes rather hard to nail down a favorite.<br />Pick this release up. The only thing you'll come to regret is why there isn't more available from this tragically unknown gem of a song writer.

title: Paving the way!

text: Well known for his great bolero singing talent, Tito Rodriguez was unfortunately not given proper notoriety as a salsero, paving the way for many others. This album features son fantastic hard hitting salsa such as Llora Timbero and Esa Bomba, combining great music with swagger on the mic. The best two songs are partuclarly interesting since "Hay Craneo" would be interpreted by Marvin Santiago and "En El Balcon Aquel" by Lebron Brothers. Both are awesome renditions where one could argue that Rodriguez' versions better. Either way, this West Side Latino release is fantastic from start to finish and a must for any self-respecting Tito Rodriguez fan.


title: Musica Brava it is.

text: Released in 1974 under Vaya records, this album is jam-packed with great salsa gorda from start to finish. "Tin Tin Deo" has it all, wonderful brass, engaging percussion and is really one of favorite tracks on the album as it goes from afro to salsa very very nicely. The title track is really solid, catchy song that opens up the album with some nice sax playing followed by a good timbal solo. "La Mujer Cocinera" and "Yo Soy Guajiro" are 2 less serious, but just as good tracks that you will like both because of the lyrics and just raw salsa sound. Overall, it is surprisingly good with no filler tracks except for maybe the bolero, "La Semana Entera" which is not really my favorite genre. Definitely worth acquiring if you get the chance and definitely one that Codigo Music should consider remastering as Andy barely has any of music promoted, if any at all.


title: All star cast from Venezuela's best

text: Dimension Latina is Venezuela's salsa institution as some of the greats such as Oscar D'Leon and Andy Montañez have been part of the group. This album is an array of not only their songs, but also singers as it includes Wladimir, the lesser known Rodrigo and Argenis. "Dame Tu Querer" is another version of Ismael Rivera's "Sale el Sol" and "Sun Sun Babae" which was also sung by Tito Allen. Both songs are respectable although I do prefer the better known versions. As in many, if not every Dimension Latina compilation, there is "Lloraras", "El Frutero" and "La Piragua" all classics. A nice release by TH Rodven.


title: Not Lebron Brother's best.

text: For those of us that have listened Lebron Brothers hard hitting, raw salsa know how great their music can be. Unfortunately this album although has glimpses of just that, fails to consistently deliver. It includes several great tracks such as: "El Nuevo Amanecer",  "Tengo Testigo" and "La Memoria" that has their distinctive raw, unpolished sound. "La Memoria" is the clearly the standout track with its great trumpets and overall salsa dura. The rest of the album goes downhill. It includes some filler salsa tunes,  anglo disco-ish tracks, which they usually recorded and a merengue. I would have to rate this one down the middle and give it 2.5 stars as it has very little amount of quality songs. very disappointing for me.


title: Half salsa, half boleros.

text: His second solo release, recorded with the record label United Artist (West Latino on CD)Quintana was starting to make a name for himself, by himself. Many might of thought that without Eddie Palmieri, he wouldn't amount to much. They were wrong. The first half of the 10 track album features some really great hot salsa. Hijo De Yemaya, Vacilo Con Tumbao, Boboquivari, Montuno Le Traigo are all ReALLY great tracks full off energy and hitting salsa. They would foreshadow what would be Quintana's subsequent releases with Vaya Records (all excellent by the way.) The second half slows down or better said, comes to a screeching halt. The rest of the album is boleros and although I enjoy and occasional ballad once in a while, it really killed the tone and tempo that the album started off with. If you can look past this, the album is fantastic.


title: Upbeat and full of flavor.

text: Tipico was released under West Side Latino (currently a division of Fania.) Let me say that I'm really surprised no one has reviewed this album before because it is extremely good. It starts off with the song "Tipico" great song with aggressive sound and pretty good singing by Victor Velazquez, relatively unknown (at least by me.) I have to admit that Victor doesn't have the best or strongest voice, but it suits Ramirez songs very very well. "Feo Como Oso" and "Perro Que Ladra" are solid solid songs also, but the standout for me has to be "Guaguanco Sabroso." Overall it has everything from guaguanco, and montuno to plena and bolero. In spite of the  2 boleros, I really see this album as a must have.


title: Adalberto's upbringings.

text: Many people (myself included) don't really know that Adalberto Santiago started his career with Chuito Velez and his orq. Let me be the first to admit that I wasn't expecting very much from this album (re-released under Mary Lou Records) being even though there isn't a specific release date, from the liner notes a calculated guess would be around 1959. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this album is very very good. "Si Tu No, La Otra" is a Luigi Texidor type song where (as the title suggests) he warns his partner to shape up or someone will do it for her. The standout track here is "La Muerte de Lola" a very nice guaguanco where Adalberto puts his fantastic vocal skills on display. Overall the album is pretty solid, not mind-blowing, but still an album I recommend, just don't expect much from  the sound quality though.  You can see that although helped Barretto jump-start his career, Chuito Velez gave him his first chance to record and I am glad he did.


title: Good CD.  Snail delivery.  I’m think someone walked it to my mail from across the country.

text: Great cd it just took weeks to arrive.  Thank you.


title: Reminding you you're human

text:
Alright this one is 2 disks and I bought it honestly because it had Subhuman. I gotta say some tracks are from FLCL but this is mostly different stuff not from the shows. I am so glad I got this because It had songs I did not know of and they are all really diffrent. All of them here are apart from catchy some of these songs are more sad if you compare it from the shows.

I really like She is Perfect great composition with a nice beat if you listen to the whole disk 1 in order it ends more with a rather heartbreaking feeling but all good jumping to disk 2 its right in the middle with some more energy to jump a bit and goes to another sad song in the end.

All together this has got some different tone I would say for sure from what I've heard The Pillows doing, but its still them and they know what they're doing. I recommend this to remind you life is sweet.


Kind of expensive don’t you think?


title: The Greatest Shostakovich 14th was the first one

text: This was and still is the best of all the recordings of the Shostakovich 14th. Miroshkina’s voice may not be to everyone’s satisfaction, but the orchestra playing captures the intensity of a 20th century masterpiece in its first inception and recording. Why it is not available on cd yet is criminal.


title: All of the albums are great, just a matter of preference...

First of all, I want to tell you that christian c did a great job reviewing. E-Type is probably the third most influencial artist from Sweden after Ace of Base and Roxette in the 90s and 00s. However, I have to disagree with the rating he gave to this album. It really depends whether you like pop, eurodance, or some of the harder stuff written by E-Type. I own all 4 albums and I was pretty reluctant to write a review on them at first. I did not like too much Euro4ever the first time I listened to it. After one month, I thought it was a great album as it grew on me. So I decided to wait for awhile before I reflect on the albums.
In my opinion, E-Type's debut album "Made In Sweden" is his best compilation. Almost every track with the exception of Made In Sweden and Me No Want Miseria became international hits in around the world. The most famous tracks from it are Set The World On Fire, So Dem A Com, This Is The Way, When Religion Comes To Town, Russian Lullaby, Do You Always -- but you won't be disappointed in other songs!
Explorer is another excellent album. This album has a much slower beat than what we have come to expect from E-Type. I think this album is similar but better than Last Man Standing. It includes great tracks like Calling Your Name, Back In The Loop, I Just Want To Be With You, and my personal favorite, Free Like A Flying Demon. You will also enjoy a softer side of E-Type listening to I Am Not Alone, and You Will Always Be A Part of me.  This album deserves 5 stars!
