I TAKE IT BACK I FIXED MY SETTINGS


title: Aging with Humor Chonda Style

text: Chonda just gets better with age and experience.  Her personal struggles with menopause and depression were very educational and ObGYN doctor was worth the price of the CD all by itself! Then the bonus of her experience trying on low-rider jeans had me laughing out loud. I loved the extra songs in this CD with one small caveat: her voice is so strong and 'Piercing' at times, I have to adjust the volume between the talking and the singing and also pull down the Tweeters and boost the Woofers for a more pleasing tone. A man's comment was: "That woman is yelling again".  When listening to "A Piece of My Mind" I immediately thought of a friend I purchased a copy for and mailed. You just can't go wrong with Chonda if you appreciate real-life spiritual insights delivered with a Southern accent. I'm a fan.


title: Improve "DATING" is Dated

text: Another disappointing purchase, I'm afraid. I bought it mainly because it included Rita Rudner, and I can't find any CDs of her exclusively. There are 18 performers so I should have figured I wouldn't hear enough of Rita. She is so creative and excellent. This compilation is just snippets of remarks lifted from various performers acts.  Their short bits just happen to be on the same topic of "Dating". It was interesting hearing Jerry Seinfeld as a beginner deliver his part on Women Watchers in comparison to his professional, polished, and hilarious timing of today-what an improvement.  I like the concept of getting input on one topic from several different comedians, but somehow, it didn't all flow together well. When buying CDs and DVDs from the internet, it is a CHALLENGE to find the release date!  Also, sometimes hard to determine the format-whether it is a CD, or DVD. Clarity on those two issues would help a lot in my selection process.

title: Great Practice Qi Gong CD

text: If you bought this you probably already know, but I love this CD.  It's not for those who don't know the exercises or forms, but rather a practice companion which you use to have guided practice.


title: Bethel music is wonderful!

text: The music is wonderful! Bethel Music has always delivered!


title: Three Stars

text: Good for listening, great for dance!


title: inspiring a capella young voices

text: This record has wonderful gospel music from Africa, with only  minimal accompaniment by drums, etc. The young voices of these children are beautiful and inspiring. The sound reminds me of Paul Simon"s "Graceland", which of course was drawn from African music.


title: A great purchase

text: This is a wonderful cd.


title: Easy access to a jazz classic,

text:
I had not heard the classic Miles Davis recordings since my LP equipment "bit the dust."  I came across this CD on Amazon while searching for something else, and I ordered it.

It arrived promptly and was just as I remembered. I have been playing it off and on ever since. Good quality sound (played on my CD player); quality packaging, and prompt service.


title: Five Stars

text: Band ahead of its time


title: Relax back into life

text: Extraordinary CD. The Sims Brothers really capture the essence of what a true spa experience is. Too often we hurry through our lives missing the little things.  However, listening to this CD, especially with noise-cancelling headphones, allows your mind to relax, drift, and take advantage of the power of daydreaming to enhance your life.


title: Typical Hiassen (but that's good)

text: No surprises, quirky characters abound, and the story is fun. A really good read (or listen as an audio book) with no deep message, just a lot of laughs.


title: great cd

text: really am enjoying a superb cd. Great product great service


title: Five Stars

text: An old family favorite!


title: Only audio will work!

text: Be aware that this will only work on older Macs (Classic and older) and Windows machines. However, the 15 audio soundtracks can be uploaded to iTunes. Great old folk songs for children!

title: Five Stars

text: Item came fast and perfect as expected! Thanks!


title: It is a fake.

text: I don't know what this disk had on it, but I owned a disk called summer breezes with the same artwork. It had adagios on it mostly if not completely. it was orchestral music. I don't know what that crap was on this disk. I should like to return it and get my money back if possible.


title: Music that relaxes

text: One of my two favorite adagio recordings. Perfect to read by, fall asleep to or to be with that special someone.


title: It does play everything.

text: After living for over a year in the Middle East, and having acquired DVDs during trips to other parts of the world, I wanted a DVD player that would play everything, not just one encoding standard or region code.  This DVD player fits the bill beautifully.  It has played DVDs and VCDs acquired in Thailand, Bahrain, and the United States, with no problem whatsoever so far.  I can easily recommend this player to anybody who may have similar concerns.


title: poor sound

text: poor sound  . improperly reproduced  coding is incorrect  dac do not recognize codes

text: Music selection is horrible. very boring


title: Five Stars

text: Great music. Excelent performance and recording quality


title: Looking for this forever

text:
I have been looking to have a copy of the punk song used in the bus scene since this movie came out.

The original release of the album didn't include it, but this does.

The rest of the album is a bonus to get a track I've waited nearly 20 years to have.


title: fantastic celtic rock band from RI

text: one of my best memories of the 90's is watching this band play. The fiddle player is amazing.


This is one of my favorite albums! I bought two to give as gifts, and the friends I gave them to really enjoy them.


title: Prince's ''Hit n Run'' Phase Two- BEST PRINCE CD IN YEARS !!!!!!

text: This is the Prince CD I've waited years for. I've enjoyed most of Prince's latest offerings, but ''Phase Two'' is the BEST Prince CD I've heard in many a year. This ranks with all of his past Greats- it won't garner the type of hype or push that let's say ''Purple Rain'' enjoyed! And, at this stage in his Music Hall Of Fame career I doubt if Prince is even concerned with that. This CD just reflects where I think Prince's mind is in these times, Joy, Total accomplishment, and Love for his craft!!! I've said it so many times, I think Prince is my Generation's MOZART- an unbridled, limitless talent bursting at the seams with great music to share with us. ''Hit n Run Two'' is a reminder to us all that Prince is a gift given to us all- to enjoy!<br />My real rating is 500 stars!!!! This is one CD that all Prince fans MUST add to their collection- so glad I have mine!!!!

title: Absolutely awesome live album

text:
This is an absolutely awesome live album with fantastic sonics and sound. Bruford, Levin and Torn are at the top of their game. In fact, though this is a jazz-rock band somewhere between early 70s Miles Davis and early 80s King Crimson, Bruford's drum sound here is the HEAVIEST he's ever had on record, heavier than even 73-74 Crimson, all acoustic, of course, no cheesy electronic drums to be heard anywhere. Chris Botti has since become a multi-millionaire doing yuppie-friendly jazz standards and other lame tunes and putting GQ magazine style pictures on his album covers, but on this live album he truly made his artistic statement, one that will outlive all those fluff albums.

P.S,. The best place to get this double album is on Bandcamp or directly from Tony Levin's website. It sells for around 22 bucks. Do not let the sharks here rip you off just because you didn't bother to use your search engine.


title: One of the best Prog-Rock/Jazz-Rock albums ever made. Perfect for King Crimson & Zappa afficionados

text:
This masterpiece of an album can be had for much cheaper at amazon UK https://www.amazon.co.uk/Open-Guillaume-Perret-Electric-Epic/dp/B00MGVPZM4  .  Please do yourself a favor and pick it up. If you have a good system to play it on, this thing will knock you out of your seat repeatedly.  There is a guitar break on the song "Shoebox" which is one of the most intense things you will hear this side of "Boil That Dust Speck" by Mike Keneally (the last Zappa "Stunt" guitarist who replaced the previous stuntman Steve Vai).  I have played it hundreds of times and every song on it is on different compilations I make to experience 90 minutes of straight musical bliss and goosebumps nonstop. This would come in after only stuff on the level of Tomita or Zappa or Irmin Schmidt or the best 70s prog-rock. Their jazziness is very European flavored, which I like. They're not trying to imitate the American style of fusion and invent their own.

Whoever I play it for is blown away by it and they usually ask if it's some Robert Fripp or King Crimson related project. I would say this is the single most bad-ass- band in existence today, one that should be and would be the ideal opener for all of the new King Crimson's current touring expeditions. They are well-known in Europe and played at Zappanale, but almost completely unknown in the USA.


title: Chopin & This Album Are a Gigantic Hit on You Tube

text: This album has over 14 million views on you tube in just under 2 years! This pianist was completely unknown to me, although I do consider myself a classical music fan and my mother and grandmother were both pianists and Chopin players. 14 million people, including me, now know about this wonderful player.  Isn't that great? If this woman was still alive and came to Los Angeles, California to give a concert, who do you think that had never heard of her before would be going to the concert? Me, that's who and many hundreds and maybe even thousands of the 14 million listeners online who would otherwise have no idea this pianist even existed.


title: Great Mastering of a Classic Album

text: I have the original release of this album from the mid-1990s, and truly love the title track. The album evokes images of Tibet, and the music video recorded by Dadawa was spectacular! This particular version, the XRCD K2 version from Japan is far superior to the Chinese XRCD2 and improves on the imaging on the original release CD. One to keep, if you are a music lover!


title: Thanks

text: I got this cd for my Dad, it's great!!! It brings back memories of road trips when I was little when we went across the country on summer vacations,  in our 1967 van, my<br />Mom and dad would play the 50's music on 8 tracks.  Thank you, delivery was very fast and reliable,  the cd's  are in wonderful condition

title: Deserves proper release (or does it?)

text:
I had never heard this album until before yesterday. The story is known of Columbia releasing this to spite Dylan for switching labels and when it came time to reissue his music (or even put it out on CD) Dylan requested this one not be among them. I recently got a new turntable and went vinyl hunting almost immediately for this album and found it.

The critics and Dylan hated this album. It got one star reviews from All Music Guide and Rolling Stone and I tend to think that's a pretty harsh review in itself. Yeah, it's a cover album basically but they all work in their own strange way. I mean I confess to being one of those "Dylan can do no wrong" folks. I liked pretty much every album he ever did and when I stumbled upon this one I felt no different. He brings his own style to these songs and it works. Even "Big Yellow Taxi" which is a song I have always disliked is given the Dylan treatment and I love it.

OK  it's not "Blood on the Tracks" or "Blonde on Blonde" and you probably know that going into this one. But for what it is, it's enjoyable. I do however wonder, is the true reward finding it in a record shop over 40 years after it's release? Maybe it is an album that is best served being played on old vinyl instead of compact disc or MP3 download (which you can access on here). If it's an album that has interested you over the years, I recommend checking it out.


title: Five Stars

text: Thank u


title: Have You Ever Been Inside an Album Before?

text: I wish every album I like were remixed in 5.1 surround. It is the most amazing audio experience I've ever had. If you are on the fence, and love this album, get the Blu-Ray audio and listen on a good surround system. You'll never forget it!


title: And all his friends

text: I love this package because it's a comprehensive collection at a very good price. Lots of hours of interesting introspective and also good rocking music with good nuanced punch. Perfect for a commuter like myself, where good music can soften the edge of slow 2 hours or more of afternoon driving. Way too many highlights, but certainly Yellow, Clocks, Green Eyes, Fix You, Speed of Sound, Viva La Vida and Death an... great songs, true gems


title: Daughter loves her

text: It is truly a shame this young woman was taken from this world too soon. I did not even know who she was until after she died. My daughter loves her music and this CD is great for any fan.


title: Disappointed

text: I probably have all the Mavericks CD's (and even cassette tapes) they've made...this is by far the worst collection. I've put it at the very bottom of my stack of CD's to never listen to again.


title: Love love

text: The songs on this cd are songs I listened to when I was in high school


title: GREAT!

text: Came packages well. Indie exclusive clear vinyl as well. New and perfect!


title: Just like his live shows

text: Tom needs more live music he gets better each time you listen

title: Country Great Don Gibson

text: I remember listening to Don Gibson as a kid growing up.  My Dad was a founding member of the Red Rangers country band in the 50's and we grew up listening to country and western music when it was cool and with so many greats and Don Gibson was one them.  This album is really something a bit different with Jazz influences and guitarists Johnny Smith and Hank Garland.  Produced my Chet Atkins; this is one of my favorites.


title: Release This Please on CD!

text: I love this album! Reminds me of my college days back in 1979. Every song rocks especially "Slip Away" (actually a gem written by The Cars), "Goosebumps", and of course his take on the classic song "Time of the Season". It's a crying shame this is not on a CD.


title: Awesome

text: Love this cassette. Has almost all the songs from Bobs Burgers, up until the year it was produced. Great addition to any tape collection.


title: SUDDEN RUSH- DON'T BLAME THE YOUTH-CD

text: Great cd reminds me of my younger days I'm glad Amazon had it, this cd is  very hard to find now days


title: Great music!

text: Music like this isn't made anymore. Gone are talents like Gleason, Sinatra, Davis, Jr., etc. Now all we get is screaming noise. This album would make a great gift for anyone who enjoys soft, easy listening music. I highly recommend it.

title: Super Collection!

text: A great collection of classic Big Band music from Benny Goodman to Duke Ellington to Glenn Miller, Harry James, Tommy Dorsey, Buddy Rich, and more.  This is the music my parents played while my sister and I were little ones and it must have embedded itself well into my system as I find myself gravitating to this great music as time goes on.  A really worthwhile collection!


title: The Best German Rocker You've Never Heard Of

text: Although this CD isn't as strong as its follow-up (Alles, Was Ich Seh'), it is still a very solid effort from a strong female rocker from Germany who for some reason isn't as well known as other contemporary German rockers with female vocalists like Juli, Silbermond and Wir Sind Helden.  Kleinert is the best German rocker you've never heard of, and I'd recommend either of her CD's in a heartbeat.


title: Five Stars

text: A very good value.


title: ADORE THIS SONG!!!

text: While I am a very big hater of Fifty Shades of Grey and do not think that such a beautiful song fits it in any way, shape, or form, I am absolutely obsessed with Love Me Like You Do! There's just something about it that makes ne never want to stop listening to it. Way to go, Ellie!


title: Unethical business

text: So being a first time mom I ordered this way too early for my son, like a year and a half…but I feel like that’s beside the point. We realized it’s missing tiles and that even if the tiles were all present, there still wouldn’t be enough to spell some of the words/solve all of the problems. I messaged the seller and they told me they wouldn’t fix it because it’s outside the window from when I purchased it-I get it, it was a while ago, but I guess I feel like if I buy something from you it should be complete. I’ll go ahead and support a business with better character from now on.


title: Great music

text: The music was great


title: Love It and looking for a new copy!

text:
Wonderful! That is the best way to describe this album. I fell in love with it while traveling thru Atlanta. The melodies are addictive the beats are catchey. My friends have asked "Who is that" when I listened to it and I was always glad to tell them. I lost my copy years ago and the voices on the tracks still haunt me and make me smile. I recommend this album to anyone and everyone, if you can find a copy. If you do find a copy, please let me know. I would love to have it in my collection again.

title: Only One Song

text: This is two separate disc's, one for each night chris played at the rookery. Each disc contains 17 tracks of acoustic music with other musicians but no drummer.<br />These are must buy for sure, super solid sound, excellent priduction with no over dubs to be found anywhere. Pick these up before they disappear.

He realized when he was young that dancing would bring him Successes ! He had a dream and promise to his sick Mom that she will be proud of him. Sadly, she was not able to see  his achievement but Rain never let her  memories  forgotten. .He pay her visit and asked her to help him stay strong..With her guidance from above, Rain still has a lot to prove..


title: Rain is Awesome Great!

text: Rain is Awesome Great! There is no other Asian performer who can sing,dance and act and full of charisma! I'm so glad to find the Rainism Collection Album..There are only 30,000 limited edition and hard to find .I really enjoy watching his  humble start and  promise to his sick Mom. He deserved the love and attention from his fans  World wide..He is hard worker and endured disappointments and sadness in his life but he  never gave up his dream.

title: Great Inspirational Music

I was told about this fine album by a friend. Mr & Mrs Kochis have been singing Christian service music for several years.  This album, more than an hour, includes some of my favorites, such as "One Bread, One Body", "How Great Thou Art", "Blest Are They", "Be Not Afraid" and more. They each have good range and pleasant classical/pop voices, displayed singly and together through deliberate, thoughtful tempos. The arrangements basically correspond to what you might hear at a service with a "Contemporary Choir" - some additional voices, some short, understated instrumental solos that enhance the peaceful, reflective nature of the hymns.
This didn't quite have the impact for me that actually singing and playing the hymns myself sometimes does, but these are  good, solid performances. This would be excellent for relaxation and contemplation. It would also be good, peaceful background music while doing office or home tasks.
The Kochis' sing songs that help the faithful listener feel the love of God. I did, and you could, too.

title: MANY LOST GEMS HERE

text:
I found this set of Tom Jones Albums when I was searching for "Weeping Annaleah," one of Tom's forgotten tunes that never got much airplay. As a result of my search, I was rewarded with this 4 CD set, and it is loaded with many songs that were rarely played here in the USA.

For album content, check out the identical appearing package with a 2 Star review, listed here on Amazon as ASIN: B00400QVRC. Perhaps, this set is also manufactured/distributed by Decca/Universal; not A&M, as shown in the description here.

Although the other reviewer at ASIN: B00400QVRC, did not appreciate the manufacturer's sequencing of the material, along with poor packing quality and missing details, such as liner notes, I can tell you this series of 4 albums contains many of the lesser known and rarely played tracks from Tom Jones' past. And these tunes feature Tom's voice at its peak. However, I rate it at 4 stars because of the missing liner notes.

If this is the same as ASIN: B00400QVRC, Albums contained in this package are: A-TOM-IC JONES, GREEN GREEN GRASS OF HOME, DELILAH, and ALONG CAME JONES. You can look up the tracks for each album here on Amazon or elsewhere.

Shop around and get the best price, especially considering the recent increase in Amazon's shipping charges for CD's. This is a great set of albums, and, if you want the unusual, off the beaten path tunes by Tom Jones, then this is for you. It is worth it just for the tune "Weeping Annaleah."


title: Do Not Buy This Record!

text: 12/10/2009: Do Not Buy This Record! I mean it! This A&M Group is another  rip-off in the world of the music industry, and indeed, they give record companies a bad name. I bought this, thinking that I would get the extended version of "Goodbye, Stranger," only to find these idiots lopped off 1:19 (ie:one minute, nineteen seconds)of the fabulous guitar solo at the end of the song! This is ridiculous. These guys should be beaten with sticks. Anyone who is a musician or a big Supertramp fan like I am knows this song and in particular, the guitar solo, is one of the best solo efforts by anyone in modern rock history. I love to play along with it, but cannot due to the shortening of it, for usual shortened radio FM pop-rock airplay. I don't listen to commercial radio. Can't stand it. So, I had to order "Breakfast in America" to complete the entire "Good bye Stranger" song. The entire song is there. The rest of the songs are there in this compilation, but the sound quality is not all that wonderful. I have nice stereo equipment and it seems that the separation of high end treble is tinny, and the low-end is booming too loud and too much. Maybe it's just my ears. Roger Hogson and team sound like the Chipmunks. They shouldn't. The bass parts do not flow together well, either. They should have some character in their voices, but I do not hear that uniqueness. Anyway, the other thing is, when artists of the caliber of Supertramp allows this pap to be out there leads me to believe that Supertramp probably doesn't get much, if any, royalties served up to them on a platter. That is also disheartening. All the more reason, in my view, to have independent record labels so one can eliminate the middle money-grubbers, like A&M Records. So, unless you want the throwaways and the shortened versions of some Supertramp songs, spend your money. Otherwise, stay away from these guys.

text: This is Cher's best album. I've had the vinyl since college in the 70's. I have never been able to find it on CD--I've been looking all the time. I just thought it had never been put out on CD for some inexplicable reason. All of a sudden I found it online. I thought it would be a home-made version recorded from the vinyl album. NO! This seems to be the real thing, with beautiful cover, insert and picture on the CD. The sound is perfect--totally 100% professional.  I feel I really got lucky this time with this purchase! I hope it will still be available to people reading this review (I ordered mine Oct 26 2020).


title: Check this out.

text: Very enjoyable arrangement played by a most competent artist.


title: Garbage

text: Primary item shown not included in package,  instead random junk cd in its place. Look like cds from the dollar store, way over priced. Do not waste your money.


title: Best Compilation and Shining Songs!

text: My favorite Dave Matthews Album.  It just flows, excites, enthralls and pulls at your heart strings!


title: This Collection Has More Of My Favorites Than Most

text: I had almost bought it again because of coming up one disc short when I had moved recently. The disc that was missing was my favorite of the four, #2, with such hits as Leaving On a Jet Plane, All I Really Want to Do, Checque Alley, and Classical Gas. There were some I had not heard of before such as Sweet Memories and Time and I thoroughly enjoyed both. The disc beginning with Both Sides Now doesn't hurt, either. The other discs? I hardly listen to them as I love #2 so much, but they also have favorite songs of mine such as Brand New Key, I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing in Perfect Harmony, and Catch the Wind on disc 1, Me and You and a Dog Named Boo, You Don't Mess Around With Jim, and The City of New Orleans, sung by the man who wrote it, on disc 3, and Goodbye Girl, I'd Really Like to See You Tonight, and Silver Threads and Golden Needles on disc 4. A capital collection of folk songs by a heap of performers, including some different from the ones I am used to performing certain songs. It takes a long time to play all four discs but it is time well spent in my opinion.


title: A Good Collection of Country Songs on Vinyl

text: I had posted a review prior to receiving the Reader's Digest Country Roads: America in Story & Song with the fact that while there were 96 titles in the collection available on vinyl, 8-tracks and cassette tapes, there were only 75 in the set of 4 CDs. I had not realized at the start that my record set is Take Me Home, Country Roads, so there are differences in the songs and singers. While the CD set does not have Roy Rogers singing Blue Shadows on the Trail, which is on the record set, they do have him doing The Yellow Rose of Texas. One of Steve Goodman's hits, The City of New Orleans Arlo Guthrie usually sings, is sung here by Johnny Cash. I reckon it is a worthwhile collection to own, even if not what I had hoped for. An update on October 15, 2014. I have been listening to this set during my daily physical therapy sessions and have discovered a song I do not remember, P.T. 109, and really enjoy it. I had searched for the collection to get a list of tracks including performers' names since I had lost the booklet that came with the set, and all that came up on my screen was Take Me Home, Country Roads, even though I had used America in story and song, so it was wonderful to see that a reviewer took the time to type up all the titles and performers on all four discs. I really do recommend this collection with plenty of Western songs as well as country, Patriotic and ballads.


title: Good cd

text: I like some of the songs on here that's why I bought it


title: Nice one - just watch your speakers!

text:
I have been looking forward to this one for some time, and am happy to report I was not disappointed.

The music first. I was brought up on the classic Reiner/CSO Pines and Fountains - a difficult act to follow! Muti, Dutoit and others have also provided notable efforts. But Neschling and his fine, upcoming Sao Paulo Symphony take a different tack altogether, playing the Roman Trilogy more 'straight' as music and less as a vehicle for virtuoso fireworks.

Yes, I admit missing the precision and power of the Reiner (also, notably, a very fine sounding Living Stereo), together with the terrifyingly leaden, implacable trudge of its legions down the Appian Way to end 'Pines'. However, the Neschling offers many compensations. Not least the alarmingly OTT final contribution to the Roman Trilogy - Feste Romane. Frankly, I think there is room for both approaches and recordings in any collection.

And the sound impresses mightily, too. Spacious, clear, transparent, and with huge dynamics, this matches and carries the music effortlessly.

Far be it from me to recommend antisocial behaviour, but play this one loud. VERY loud. Only, don't complain to me when the neighbours come knocking...

Strongly recommended.

title: Somebody Get Me a Doctor!

text:
First of all, it's not a bootleg, it's a legit British import with copyrights, as far as I can tell. From the Diver Down tour, in California, might even be the US Festival.

Sound quality: 4 on a ten scale. Not very bassy but a good overall capture. Saturation in quite a few places, tape flanging at other times. Not sure if it's a fan tape, pretty awful if it's from the soundboard! Needs some serious mixing and EQ'ing. Some of the songs are faded in and/or out, instead of letting us hear the beginning and ending. But the fact that this recording exists at all is something we should be grateful for.

Performance : 6 on a ten scale. Everyone makes mistakes but the vibe is great just the same. Dave forgets words and cues, Alex is solid on all but a few occassions, Mike's bass is all over the place, kinda sloppy at times. Eddie takes chances, doesn't play it like the record. At times this is really cool to hear like the added harmonies on Jamie's Cryin'. Somebody Get Me a Doctor is a jam that also incorporates Girl Gone Bad (then unreleased) and I'm So Glad (by Cream.) Sometimes he misses the odd note or is out of tune with Michael. Dave is just out of tune a lot! Very loose performance by all.

Fun Factor: 9 on a ten scale! Ya gotta love Dave's shtick even when he forgets the words, and he does that a lot, even on the first songs. The textbook definition of what a frontman is supposed to be.

text: It's so rare to find a CD or album where all the songs are good.  This is one of them.  Also enjoyed the Zodiac EP.  I hope they make more music soon.


title: Discarded Springsteen B-sides

text: This French band's music isn't as strange as the title might suggest. It is pretty much your average acoustic folk-pop songs. They are obviously strong songwriters as the opening song "Tell Me Something I Don't Know" makes us know. I can't get rid of the idea however that I am listen to BruceSpringsteen's discarded B-sides from the 80s but stripped down. The lyrics are interesting story songs but the trick wears out, especially when it's sung in such a nasally flat voice. Singing in English from a French band and furry animals aside, we are seeing through the trick now.

title: Barney Could Sing This Song

text: This song is just whatever. Your typical Lil Jon production and you know all of his music sounds the same. I mean, picture Barney or Baby Bop singing "Snap Yo Fingers."


title: Fantastic western................

text:
Director: James Mangold. Starring: Russell Crowe, Christian Bale, Peter Fonda, Ben Foster.
Poor, one legged rancher, Dan Evans (Bale), must accompany dangerous criminal, Ben Wade (Crowe), to the 3:10 train to Yuma with a cluster of inept bounty hunters, after discovering Wade robbing a carriage on his land with his gang of violent colleagues. Naturally, a dangerous journey beset with psychological mind games ensues. The movie is extremely entertaining, with a great cast of actors. I thinks the movie works well because of the two lead performers. They both manage to muster appropriate amounts of depth in difficult roles, with Bale expressing an intense air of desperation with ease, while Crowe bounces off his co star as he treads the blurred line of good/bad guy with a rugged charisma.
Ben Foster is on typically over-the-top form as the second-in-command of Crowe's posse, offering another nicely played psycho to his fledging bad guy career.
All in all, I am glad I saw it in the theater--looked good on the big screen.

text: I bought this CD because I had seen the composer's opera TWO WOMEN in San Francisco.  The opera doesn't replace the movie but is a more than honorable attempt.  This disc is quite different and constantly interesting.  If you are willing to give it a try I think you will be rewarded with some involving music.

title: MoFi Sound Quality and an Excellent Sampler/Demonstration Disc

text:
This CD is designed to show off Mobile Fidelity's sound quality, and succeeds in doing so, as it is consistent with the quality of MFSL's other Ultradisc II offerings.  The redbook sound quality is outstanding; the SACD sound quality is even better.

Track selection is good, with songs that vary in frequency focal points, so you can really appreciate the sound quality as well as differences between equipment if you were to use this as a demo disk.

This is somewhat expensive for a CD, about average price for a hybrid SACD disc, and a bit less expensive than most MoFi releases.  By any measure, however, I would consider this an excellent buy.

text: I purchased this CD because I wanted one song.  I heard this song in the movie "Finding Normal".  The song is "Stay".  It was written by Jake Smith as were all of the songs on this album.  There are only five songs on it but all of them are good.  I believe the song "Stay" is a beautiful song and fit the events in the movie perfectly.  Jake has a wonderful voice and obvious talent for writing.  It isn't expensive even with the shipping cost.  I don't know how many people will even ask  about this album but if you do I say get it.  I wish there was some way to let people know it is out there.

All 4 songs are good. It definitley sounds like Clutch. So I think most Clutch fans will be happy with it.

text: Apparently there is no "best of" collection for Metallica available in the US, but this collection from overseas showed up at my door after about 2 weeks and was exactly as hoped / expected.  It does seem to have a kind of copyright I haven't run into before however, and I haven't been able to transfer it to iTunes so far without pops and clicks being added to the songs.  Aside from this, the CDs are perfect quality and the track selection is very good.

text: Mary Ellen Bernard is a cabaret singer who brings energy and wit to her music. I've seen her in performance twice. "Point of Departure" is a very good studio album despite that dreadful cover photo. "Let's Talk Dirty in Hawaiian" will make your day.

title: Five Stars

text: I love this music score. Just excellent. Leonard Rosenman is one of the best composers.


title: History Yet Again Hits the Big Screen

text: I have to say that if Kevin Costner just stars in a movie, and doesn't have a hand in directing it, then it usually turns out to be a good movie.  Thirteen Days is not an exception.  It's blend of history and pure entertainment is a mix that is hard to beat.  And with stunning performances by all of the cast.  It makes it hard to say one bad thing about it.  The story is about the thirteen days of the Cuban Missle Crisis where the Russian government strategically set up missles sites in cuba to launch against the western civilization.  Costner plays Kenny Odonnell, Chief Political Advisor to the President of the United States.  Roger Donaldson' s movie moves quickly and really tells a great story.  It is suspenseful, fun, and has a good amount of action.  One not to miss at any cost.


title: Memories!

text: Plays great and the great selection of hits really brings back the memories!


title: Great

text: Record had a few pops and crackles but overall was in great condition.


title: Great collection of songs!

text: Awesome collection!  I have it and absolutely love!


title: The Seekers

text: If you liked The Seekers, you'll like this.  Many of their famous songs.


title: Wilhelm Kempff whups Brendel any day.

text:
If I only had this recording of Beethoven's wonderful piano concertos to go by, I'd think Brendel's performance was fine. However, when you compare his interpretation to that of Wilhelm Kempff, Mr. Kempff bears the bell away. The true master's recording of the opening movement of the 4th is sublime, while Brendel's is ridiculous.
Based upon that comparison, it makes me wonder about Brendel's other work.
But don't take my word for it. Listen to them both and decide for yourself which artist you like best.

title: Classis for singalong and marching:  patriotic Americana at its best

text: A wonderful collection of patriotic Americana.  From the War for Independence to the Second World War, these were the songs we sang to boost morale, share our grief, and give hope when all seemed lost.  The arrangements are classic, crisp and clear perfect for singalong and marching.  More than that, this music is time travel to other ages, a chance to listen to our forefathers and learn.

title: Pop goes the weasel!

text: I also have a baby male cockatiel.  I played this CD a few times a week.  After several weeks, Buddy would practice the tunes in his cage.  During my conference calls at home, my meeting attendees would hear Buddy whisting the "CHARGE" note-set or ascending the scales of "Pop Goes the Weasel", to join into the tone of my voice.  I like this CD because IT WORKS.  There are quite a few tunes on this CD so you may want to focus on a few first, then move to the next.  Otherwise so many whistlings can overwhelm your bird, not to mention turning you into a birdbrain!


title: Born This Way: Deluxe Edition

text: When Lady Gaga decided to release a deluxe edition of her smash hit album "Born This Way", I feel like many little monsters stood up and cheered. This album is great as it includes three more songs on the original album, plus a bonus CD of amazing remixes. You won't be upset if you purchase this album today. :)


title: Incredible artist

text: I discovered Lily-Ann when I was a jazz disc jockey many years. She has an incredible voice that tends to go to the lower ranges, but the songs she sings touch the soul and warm the heart. I regret that this appears to be her only recording. I would love to have another. Buy it, buy it, buy it.


title: A MUST BUY FOR NYRO FANS!

text: It's always exciting to discover new material by Laura Nyro. While most of the track on this record can be found on other recordings, there are a few new gems that I delighted in. A must buy for Nyro fans!


title: An Evening with the Greatest Pops Orchestras

text: This was an unexpected find, and a very good one.  A lot of great music on here, not just from Fiedler, and all of it most enjoyable.  If you have a collection of Pops concerts, this is very nice addition.  We have a large, powerful sound system, and this CD sounds great.


title: I absolutely love this music

text:
My mother got this album in 1963. I am getting rid of all my records as well as my 2 stereo, but I am keeping this record as well as an old Peter Gun album. I absolutely love this music. The first song, LOVE BARGE, sounds very similar to NEVER ON SUNDAY, by Manos Hadjidakis. I wonder if some of these songs were composed by him. All this music is wonderful. I also taught myself how to belly dance with this music.
So we have had this album for 54 years. I have had a lot of records, including 33 rpm, 78s, and 45s of all different styles and decades. I had to get rid of all of them, because I was moving, but out of a few hundred that I gave up, only this one and the Peter Gunn, I am keeping.
I loved it as a little girl.and now as an adult.
Wonderful music !!!

title: BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS MUSIC

text: WONDERFUL OLD ALBUM


title: Good performances

text: I am a huge fan of Henryk Szeryng and have never heard an unsatisfactory performance by him. This 2-CD set is a bargain for fans of both Beethoven and Szeryng.


title: Outstanding music, superbly performed

text: Almost every classical music lover is familiar with Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet overture -- his first major success -- and many of us regard it as one of our favorite works. I have loved it since I first heard it in my youth many years ago. Although Berlioz music for Romeo and Juliet is not nearly as well known as Tchaikovsky's it is, nevertheless, quite good and well worth hearing. And, frankly, the best parts of Berlioz work approach Tchaikovsky's famous overture in beauty. This CD, which contains both of these works superbly conducted by the great Carlo Maria Giulini, is one which every music lover should have.


title: L'Arlessienne complete

text: Bizet's L'Arlesienne suites -- often coupled with suites from Carmen -- are well known to most classical music lovers. Less well known is the fact that they derive from extensive incidental music which Bizet wrote for a tragic play entitled L'Arlesienne (The Woman from Arles). This recording presents all of this incidental music, which is quite good -- as one would expect from Bizet. Much as I like the suites, I'm glad that this CD has allowed me to hear all of the music for L'Arlesienne which Bizet composed.


title: Finest Brahms concerto available

text: Henryk Szeryng was one of the greatest violinists of the recorded era. Although he had an awesome technique, he consistently restrained it in the service of artistic, rather than virtuosic, performances. The concertos on this CD are consistent with this philosophy of Szeryng's. Haitink and the Concertgebouw Orchestra provide marvelous accompaniments in both concertos, and Starker -- who often recorded with Szeryng -- is a worthy partner in the "Double Concerto." In my opinion, these are the finest performances of these concertos currently available.

It was sent FedEx, and after a few delays in German and then French customs I finally  got the CD. I tried to order last Christmas, but was not available until this fall. It finally arrived in early  December. I want to thank the seller for finally getting this to me. This is a great early album of Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham. It was well worth the wait. I have an old tape of the album, and I have the vinyl but I really wanted this to add to my computer and phone.

text: The record is in good shape and I am enjoying listening to it.  I sure will use this merchant again.


title: Five Stars

text: I love it!!!!!!!


title: PLEASE release in digital!!!

text: I was very young when my father bought this album. My siblings and I LOVED it and there's just nothing else out there that really compares to the sound/style. If you've ever made your own music on a synthesizer unit or synth software you know how a basic track is laid out and how you can choose to make it sound like a flute or a piano or a guitar or bird chirp or fire engine or anything. Well, this is dozens of separate tracks for all of the different instruments, overlaid to duplicate a rich, full orchestra-like variation of these classical pieces. It's very meticulous work, done extremely well, and it was an early showcase for what you could really do with digital instruments. It doesn't replace the classics, wasn't meant to. But, the result is some of the most "fun" classical music available. For me, I'll never hear Bolero without hearing the MOOG version in my head. I agree - one of my top all-time favorite albums! I will follow advice in comments here and ask the label to release in CD or MP3 format.!!!!

Blown away by the crazy "dance" genre. this is dance, which I like, but on hyperdrive...
never heard of it, tried it out, didn't like it too much... but there were a couple of good songs I think...

I think I'll try some lower-key (as the saying goes) DJ Awards or "regular Dance" that NRJ also offers:)

If you're new to the "dance" genre, its techno American 80s (1980s) but with modern computers:)...typically a fast drum beat of 120 bpm.


title: Great song

text: This song is a wonder for American Japanese Pop/Rock. Great American sound with great Japanese vocals. This is a great song.


title: Buster B. Jones CD

text: I was collecting Buster B. Jones recorded CDs and was very lucky to find this one on Amazon.


title: Great CD!

text: Another Must Have For Chet Collectors! 2 Albums in 1 CD!


title: Woody Herman "LIVE"

text: A Real Nice "LIVE" LP and Must Have for any Woody Herman Fan.


title: Ben Bedford's CD is a must buy. The song ...

text: Ben Bedford's CD is a must buy.  The song "Lincoln's Man"  is worth the purchase price.  Mr Bedford is a true troubadour singer.


title: WOW-- What a blessing!!!

text: Steve Fry came to our church in the early 1990s and performed either this or "We Are Called" with our church choir. Absolutely incredible, beautiful, anointed experience. I have that experience all over again when I listen to this CD, almost 30 years later. Absolutely incredible, transformational experience with our soon coming King! Bought another one to share with a friend. Thank you, Steve!


title: Good for a children's dance party!

text: Didn't have too many hits, but the few she did still hold up in a children's dance party sort of way.


title: The cd to buy to learn if you like her music

text: The moody Queen of Mid-Eighties J-Pop has her best hits on this cd. She had a long career, and many songs and greatest hits collections, but the best of the best is on this album.


title: Utterly amazing

text: Amazing to have this in crisp, clear quality on CD after all these years. Fans of "Duel" have to be fans of Billy Goldenberg's score. The movie and the music are truly inseparable. Get this while you can before it disappears.


title: poppin johnny cd

text: This is a great cd I love it. (I love the song 43 and coffee it is a great tune)


title: We love this.

text: I was thrilled to find that this was available. We love the songs and also love the fact that half of it is instrumental. It was used but as stated the Cd was in perfect condition. We had another jewel case and just popped it and the booklet that came with it in the new one. Looks like I bought it yesterday!! Thanks Amazon for making it possible to find gems like these and thank you to the sellers.


title: Got the DVD!

text: I ordered this taking the chance that I might not get the dvd. However, the dvd did show up. It has a lot more songs than what I found on YouTube and is very good. Am really enjoying it.


title: arrived ahead of scheduled date

text: The product arrived early. no problems with the disc very happy customer

text: I found this guy on Youtube and have his music playing in the background all the time.  Well, I wanted to listen to him music while in the car too and bazinga, he has CDs available and even MP3 albums available on Amazon so I had to get a few.  I just love his music, so peaceful and calming when I am stressed out and need music and no talking.

title: Bon Jovi cd

text: I love the cd.


title: It's a great rock album!

text: This album has a lot of really good songs, every one with great beat and meaningful lyrics.  I bought it for my wife, and was surprised I had not heard it before--great quality!


title: Five Stars

text: Very nice.


title: Not very good

text: My friends used to listen to this band when we were in high school and thought I remembered that they had some good music. This CD is boring and does not flow at all. Its no wonder no one knows about this band. Terrible.


title: Soulful Growl

text: This is Tom Jones at his very best... Totally from the heart and soul of this great singer and song interpreter.  I have listened to it 10 times already, and always hear more richness and more spirituality in this wonderfully different CD.  Bravo, Sir!


title: excellent - better than excellent

text: I love this CD more than ever. The Beatles have always been my favorite music group and now I can listen to all of their biggest hit songs all at once. I'll never stop listening to this CD!


title: very good

text: I really like the music. There is only one CD by Buddy Guy that I like better - "I Am The Blues."


title: Kerry Christensen

text: fabulous yodeling from Kerry Christensen, a Master yodeler. His teaching style is easy, even though yodeling is not. highly recommended


title: Exquisite  music!

text: Most peaceful CD I own. I've already played it hundred times. LOVE it all.


title: It didn't have a Plastic CD Case

text: one of my favorite albums!


title: absolutely stunning!

text: i am one who loves music. the thing i like about it though, is that i get inspired to make movies out of it. whats really fun though, do with this soundtrack, is to walk around in the dark (in your house or outside) and listen to the music. its sooo creepy. heh. anyways. this is a must buy if you love the silent hill music.


title: A very talented group!

text: Love this a cappella group, especially their<br />“Mary did you know?”... the reason I bought it, and have enjoyed the whole album!


title: This is a wonderful nature cd

text: This is a wonderful nature cd.  The bird song recordings are beautiful and there is a restful sound of water in the background that enhances.  Highly recommend if you like natural bird sounds.


title: This is not a recording of bird songs/sounds as the ...

text: This is not a recording of bird songs/sounds as the title and content list suggests.  It is instrumental.  I wish the description would have been more revealing of the true contents of this soundtrack.  If you are looking for true nature bird soundtrack, this is not for you.  Looking to return this one as not what it appeared to be.


title: Quick delivery

text: Great cd


title: Great CD

text: Somewhat different than the vinyl I had 25 years ago, but still the great songs I remember.


title: The best

text: My favorite song of all time.


My husband enjoys books on tape as he drives a lot for his job.  He has "read" all of  Mr O'Reilly's books and has enjoyed each one more than the last.  Good stiff.


title: Rapology V2 #21, anyone selling the others?

text: There's a few tracks on this collection that should have been left off.  I wish the remixed tracks were clearly printed on the artwork, but it's a pleasant suprise to hear them.  Slick Rick's track here is a Dread Remix (by Jazzie B of Soul II Soul,) and "Be A Father To Your Child," is also the remixed version used for the video (very rare and may not be on any other CD, but correct me if I'm wrong...)  I remember a lot of these songs from this compilation, but they are forgettable.  It's worth the purchase for the two remixes alone.


title: Juice

text:
Grabs the record, but one his boys sees him.  "Put that back!!"  Fat boy keeps it anyway because of the hot starbooty on the cover.  That scene from the movie, "Juice," always stays in the back of my mind because my Mom used to have this record!  Wow, never thought I would see it again.  I know it would complete my Ubiquity collection on CD, that is if it was on CD, hmmmm... What's the posibility of this one?  I doubted Lifeline and Vibration's reissues, but now I have them better than ever in the way Roy heard them in the studio.  I'm waiting for DEE DEE Bridgewater's Just Family which is being released soon (formally of Ubiquity,) and I should have it by next month!  I like that smooth **** nowadays and hope they do the Starbooty LP soon (HOPE WOUNDED BIRD RECORDS CATCHES THIS REVIEW...) - I will update
Gone! [[ASIN:B00005V53C Just Family]]
[[ASIN:B000VS6OZG Lifeline]]
[[ASIN:B0015KGINC Ubiquity Vibrations]]

UPDATE - July 25, 2009:
Wounded Bird has reissued this album on CD!  I'm waiting for my order to arrive and will update again.  Almost all of the Roy Ayers reissues on CD are complete, well deserved for one of the best musicians of our time.  Speaking of Wounded Bird Records, they've reissued an album by Mountain which has one of the most sampled tracks in history, "Long Red (Live)," for the intro drum and audience loop (most notably used for "Eric B Is President.)  For those that like to collect the original tracks on CD used in samples, this is the way to go!  See you all in a few.

Update pt 2 - Aug. 8, 2009:
See my review of this CD as Amazon will probably post this one to the CD version.


title: Does MChC sing 10,000 miles

text: Is this all orchestral or does Mary Chapin Carpenter sing 10000 miles? Theres no where to ask this question on Amazon!


title: More than I barganed for

text: Not only was the cd single as described it also contained autographs from the band !!!!! Fantastic. Rarely do I receive more than expected but this was a pleasant change. Thanks!


title: Your Easy Listening Hit Parade of the 40's & 50's: Collector's Edition of Original Hit Recordings

text: Great selection of many, many, movie and popular music favorites of the day!  My husband and I really enjoy this upbeat collection.  Even our 6 year old likes it!  Not all of the colllection is to our taste, but it is a true representation of popular favorites of the day.


title: Not as good as the rest off the material from 13 but ...

text: Not as good as the rest off the material from 13 but still light years ahead off most metal bands.. Worth checking out for any Sabbath fan.


title: Excellent CD

text: Great CD.  Will listen to it often.  Donald T. McMahon is an excellent song-writer, and the voices blend beautifully.  It takes me back to the 70's during the days of great sing-song-writers, like James Taylor, Carly Simon and Kris Kristopherson.


title: I loved the music in this Cd

text: I loved the music in this Cd, reminds me of the good old days of my youth; It's a great Cd for anyone that loves the 70's.


title: Good music great seller 6 stars

text: Very satisfied with the packaging so many times you order a CD and the jewel case is cracked the way this was boxed up was brilliant. Good price and shipping was low considering it was coming from the Netherlands to the United States.


title: Good purchase

text: LOVE Jackson Browne!!


title: Five Stars

text: Excellent story. Too bad we have had so few adults in the White House since Reagan.

title: Great cd

text: This is for my son for Christmas he found it already, but loved it so it's all good thank you


title: cracked case, but still a great purchase...

text: I love Bette Midler, I have since I can remember. I am grateful for this purchase, however I received my autographed cd and the jewel case was cracked. I am not typically that picky about the jewel cases, but when it is autographed it has more of a purpose that just a case.


title: Perfect

text: Just as described


title: Like Elvis but this cd has too much backup

text: 1st cd good … other 2 terrible


title: Cellophane Solution is great punk rock!

text: There's a cover of Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville on this record that sounds a lot like NOFX! Damn some of this record is great!!!!


title: Love it

text: I WISH IT WAS LONGER!  It has the music from  3 great episodes. The pilot "the kid"  "the gunfighter" and "kansas"


title: Nice CD sound.

text: The CD music is marvelous thanks to the voice of Tennessee Ernie Ford.  The packaging in which the CD arrived was amateurish.


title: Music

text: Good old school music


title: Great Summer Tunes!

text: After nearly 20 years, this CD still presents some really great songs.


Kenny and the band are in great form on this release!


title: Great tunes

text: I have been waiting for the singles from Maroon 5 for a few years after seeing their concert and realizing that I recognized most of their songs from radio.


title: These guys are funny

text: These praire dogs are super funny while telling a good story!!! My kids (and husband) laugh and laugh!! This cassette is just songs from their stories though. Its still cute though and good for some good family square dancing. :)


title: One Star

text: great


It's an album, not much to say about it.  The cellophane wrapper was torn in a couple of places when I received it but the actual jacket was not damaged.  I assume that it will sound like the Beastie Boys.


title: Five Stars

text: My elementary age kids love the music!


title: Lovely songs

text: The lyrics are poignant and beautiful. The performance quality is decent. This performance is definitely enhanced by the dramatic accompaniment, as the CD itself did not have the same effect.


title: Wonderful!

text: My family loves these CD's.  What a fun way to learn God's word.  We all go around the house singing Bible verses.


title: One of Cameo's Best Albums - Still Overlooked After 30 Years

text:
I don't know why this funky album is so overlooked, underated and under-appreciated. Released in the fall of 1980, "Feel Me" picks up right where "Cameosis" left off, except that this is much funkier than both "Cameosis" and "Secret Omen". The bass lines, synthesizers and vocal chants on "Your Love Takes Me Out" and "Throw It Down" sound very similar to "Shake Your Pants" and "I Just Want To Be". "Keep It Hot" is awesome....all I can say is "owwwww"!

"Rollerskates" is a nice jam also. But "Feel Me" is the serious slow-jam cut here, which sounds like a follow-up to "Sparkle", with Anthony Lockett on lead vocals once again. "Better Days" is another nice ballad. I agree with the previous reviewer...this needs to be released on CD ASAP!!! Meanwhile, I'll just keep listening to my original vinyl copy. No Cameo collection is complete without "Feel Me".


title: Relaxing and inspirational.

text: This sound track is so relaxing I play it all night long


title: On Par With His Other Music CDs

text: I own several Jim Haskins CD. Many have been purchased as used music from Amazon third-party vendors. It is a really inexpensive method of adding to your music collection especially if you choose those that are Very Good or better. Sometime you can even find it as an Amazon Prime purchase as this one is. I have enjoyed Mr. Haskins interpretations of the musical selections on his cocktail piano collections. If you like solo piano then you should give Cocktail Piano a whirl.


title: Another Winner from Reader's Digest

text: For those Audiophiles that grew up listening to the world of "Pop Music", this collection from Reader's Digest is worth the investment. Reader's Digest Music has always provided a refreshing tribute to the music of the 40s-50s and 60s You will enjoy this if you can locate a copy.


title: An UnbelievableArtist

text:
I heard one song by Rachel Flowers by chance on Spotify and, intrigued, I went to YouTube to check her out.  She is a jaw-droppingly amazing musician.  As a keyboardist, she plays right up there with the late Keith Emerson of ELP fame.  As a guitarist, she's a total match for the likes of Dweezil Zappa.  And, as if that weren't enough, she's proficient on saxophone, flute and sings like an angel.  AND all of this talent comes within a young woman, blind from 3-months old, who started playing piano at 2 years old and developed perfect pitch by the time she was 4-1/2 years old.  Shes won tons of awards and has played with many of the jazz masters.  Quite an accomplishment for a musician her age.

How this much talent can exist in one human being is far beyond comprehension.  This latest CD and her previous CD titled Listen would be on the very top of my "most recommended" list.  Going Somewhere is a stellar musical release from an artist whose music continues to amaze listen after listen.  The tune that gets me every time I listen to this CD is, Time For the Prize.  You too will be amazed!!


title: Double Great

text: Anything by Kal David is great including Double Tuff


title: The Diesels are The Byrds

text: This sounds more like The Byrds than The Byrds.  I'm a HUGE DPW fan and this seals the deal. Just buy it and see.


title: Buy This CD

text: Nothing short of amazing here and you will not be disappointed.  I just keep buying this CD over and over and handing them out to friends.  It's that good.


title: Worship from the heart

text: Stan Sinclair has used his gift of music to serve God for his entire life.  This CD was one of his first and represents Stan's love of God, and his heartfelt words and songs of worship.  One of the tracts "I'll stand with you" was sung at our wedding and represents the faithfulness of a love designed by God.


title: Must have!!

text: If you love the music of Inuyasha then this is a must have. Goes up to the seventh season and has opening and closing songs in their entirety. A nice addition to any collection!


Bought it 3 years ago and it's been working great ever since. I rely heavily on reviews so wanted to share mine also.


title: Everything!

text: Love it!


title: 1 star...are you crazy?! This is essential listening!!

text: I don't understand the 1 star review. This is an awesome collection of music and interviews giving the listener an invaluable insight into one of the most important musical artists of our time. Granted it isn't all music but what a great set to have. I have listened to it many many times and haven't tired of it. Hearing a multitracked 15 year old Jaco playing all the instruments is nearly worth the price of the set. One can see his developing sense of groove and soloing through the early years. Also included in the set is an 80 page booklet. The only thing better would be if this was a video with live footage but the rarity of the tracks are worth much more than the asking price. Also not quite sure why the reviewer is reviewing the "Jaco Pastorius The Early Years Recordings" here which also a great collection; worth more than the 1 star given.


title: Five Stars

text: Eddie Blazonczyk's music is the best!!!


title: Great soundtrack!

text: We did this program for VBS this year and my kids LOVED the soundtrack! I'm so glad that I found it on Amazon. They listen to it constantly.

one of the most difficult cds to find.
I have been looking for these songs on cd for at least a good 20 years, or more
thanks a million


title: fantastic musical, spiritual journey.

text:
i have the cassette , but would also love to find a brand new cd.
too bad some of the greatest musical works , are also hardest to get.
that's life. go figure.
I bought the cassette at a concert at church on the way in van nuys , ca. in the early 1990s.


title: Love it

text: I just love everything Suzy does. She is do true to her roots and her talent is obvious. The purity of her voice us matched by the emotional connection she seems to have with the music she performs.


title: Five Stars

text: great


title: yawn

text: this is the lamer version of the 80's piece of garbage,aptly titled,April Fools Day.no other decade had so much fun with holidays.anyway,this wasnt scary nor spine tingling.it was snore enducing.thats what i get for giving into cool posters........pg-13 strikes again!


title: Bringing back some great memories

text: This was mostly a sentimental purchase. I saw Sweathog open for Ten Years After 8/27/71 and it was the best concert I've ever seen(out of maybe 200 shows). I saw them again in between Freddie King and Rare Earth the next year and they were great then too. The drummer for Sweathog was Frosty, the drummer for Lee Michaels, and I'd seen him with Lee Michaels before he got together with the other group members to form the group. The guitarist BJ was also a strong performer both on the records and in concert


title: Tremendously good fun!

text: I enjoyed this OCR very much and think it would be the perfect family show for the Halloween season. The book is witty and the tunes are hum-able!


title: Awesome opening Main Title.

text: In my opinion the Main Title music on this recording is one of Goldsmith's best scores. It  is simply stunning. Making use of a full orchestra and assorted Chinese instruments, the composer builds the music to a shattering climax. When I heard this in a movie theatre way back in the 1960's, I was floored.


title: Now That's What I'm Talkin' 'Bout

text: I have yet to receive the CD but got a copy from a friend. It's literally where I imagine my playing to be as a guitarist. It's the subtle crossover between a little bit of rock 10%, blues 10% and jazz 80% that keeps the audience interested. Just so darn good! I wish that they would do more together. It is also very well recorded. I can hear each chord , solo , with the bass and each drum nicely mic'd.


text: This is a great continuation of Classic Country 1950-59.  This CD is all classic country.  After 1964, country music seemed to disappear for a while, only to be reborn around 1989.

title: How Country Music Began

text: If you're a fan of REAL country music, this is the CD to buy.  Most younger people won't like this CD because there's no southern rock here.  I remember hearing most of these songs on the radio growing up.  All classics.


title: "Harmony Handed Down" by Annmarie O'Riordan

text: I just received my order of "Melody in Harmony" and "Harmony Handed Down" sung by Annmarie O'Riordan. Both CD's are EXCELLENT. I would highly recommend them. I ordered them, through Amazon, from CDWorld Ireland and I am very pleased with the transaction, both quality of product/shipment and time for delivery.

title: Not What I Expected

text: After listening to ".....Poco Loco.." several times and because it is such a great CD I decided to try "Galaxy".  This was an earlier album and sounds like a high school garage band.  I think the lead singer is different because the vocals are not as good, the band isn't as tight, the beats are simple and the music is repetitive.  Two listens and it went in the cut out box.


title: love, and intellect to this collection

text: Alaimo is an opera singer who interprets traditional Sicilian folk songs as no other.  He brings passion, love, and intellect to this collection.  He points out that the modern presentations of these songs are thoughtless and happy-go-lucky, which I attribute to the early days of TV, when all Italian music, even in Italy, had the same bouncy "rustic" sound.  In particular, he points out that "Vitti 'na Croza" is a tragic song, a dialogue between a skull and a man who encounters it "supra un canollo," rather than the popularized version of it makes it out to be.  By the end of the song, the speaker is contemplating his own death: "I call for love and find death" (from memory, not quoted).  Most memorable in this album is "U Siccueddu," the donkey.  It is possibly the saddest song on earth, again made a joke of by 20th century interpretations.  Alaimo's interpretation makes it the saddest piece of music on earth, rivaling "Pathetique."  The donkey was the mainstay of the Sicilian peasant's life, for transportation and field work.  The death of one's donkey was truly a tragic event.  My Sicilian tells me that the words indicate that someone killed his donkey; what I think it says is they "killed him on me."  Not positive, though.  This song, as sung by Alaimo, is a love song.  The speaker praises his late donkey, and points out his gentlemanly attributes; when he says he doesn't know how he's going to make it without him, we know he means emotionally as well as financially.  The song calls for the braying of a donkey, usually done in a comic manner, which causes its misinterpretation; Alaimo presents the braying as a melancholy sigh of a bray.  Every selection is a work of art.  If you know Sicilian, or even if you don't, you'll treasure this album.


title: One Star

text: Did not receive cd that was suppose to be in it.  Totally useless


title: Why no CD for this?

text: I saw this film on opening weekend when I was a senior in HS.  It's my favorite adaptation of the Christmas Carol.  I've been waiting for 20 years for this to come out on CD!  I wish I knew why it never did.  I'll keep checking back here every year hoping to see it!


title: Amazing debut album!

text:
Like many, I first heard the music from this album on the Weather Channel's Local On The 8s (surprise, surprise!).  It was during high school, 10th to 11th grade to be precise, that I was first hearing songs like "Sunshine In The Rain", "Full Sail", and "Adoration" (my personal favorite from this album)... but I had no idea who or what I was listening to.  I can even remember how, whenever I was watching the Weather Channel, and when it came time to display the good old Local On The 8s, I was crossing my fingers, hoping that the music would be the piece that I would later know to be "Adoration."  If it was, then I'd be like, "Oh yes!  Today's my lucky day!"  However, soon thereafter, I would forget about worrying the name of this music or who made it, being too immersed in the college application process as I entered my senior year of high school.

Fast forward 14-15 years later... I was at the Museum of Science in Boston, MA (I am a lifelong Boston area local), and I went to see a show at the Charles Hayden Planetarium.  It is in these places that they play all sorts of interesting "background music" as some folks with limited mindsets might call it, and the title track of Farish's "Life In Stereo" album happened to be playing in there.  I can remember how much I loved it, yet didn't know who or what it was.... but this time, I was armed with my iPhone, and my SoundHound app, and so I whipped it out and had it listen.  Sure enough, there it popped up - Life In Stereo, by Ryan Farish...  so then I immediately navigated to iTunes, where I downloaded it.  However, that isn't what this review is about, so I will save that for when I review that album.

So to get right into it, "Beautiful" is just that... it's absolutely BEAUTIFUL!  When I still had my 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, this would be one of my top choices for driving music, especially for when I would drive out to the more suburban/semi-rural out-reaches in Eastern Massachusetts, just to observe the beautiful New England landscapes.  Not only that, but the music itself, with all the soothing melodies and uplifting feeling made it all the more possible to avoid road rage.  Aside from driving in the countryside, this is perfect for listening to on a Sunday morning, a time when everyone loves to kick back and relax.  This is really all I can say, seeing as music like this is truly meant for the listener to digest upon actually listening to it.

All this being said, just buy it and listen to it so you can find out for yourself.  Ryan is truly a genius of an artist, hands down, and there is no reason for even die-hard metalheads, such as myself, not to appreciate his amazing work.  He'll always be light years ahead of all that over-commercialized junk that continues to pollute the airwaves on a daily basis.

Buy it and listen!  You won't regret it!  :)

text: I have enjoyed this music for a long time and always find it relaxing.  Not a CD to play while you are driving a long distance.  It is guaranteed to put you to sleep.  One of the songs, #8, Sacred Dreams, has obscured words that trouble me a bit.  I like to know the words that I am listening to.  Otherwise, this is a lovely CD.

title: What a Swelligant Party this is!

text: Wonderful Cole Porter Standards.  Live theater is ALWAYS better than film, so much more energy and electricity.  It's great to relive the memory of a night out in the Theatre.


title: Five Stars

text: Any "Fiddler" cast is a treat.


title: Five Stars

text: if your a fan get this collection


title: Yes, album exists, but U can't get it via Amazon.any.country

text: A friend of mine got it on eBay (for only $3.99 + s/h... he was quite jazzed).


title: Not At All What I Had Expected

text: It was not at ALL what I had expected.  The songs were all so Very sad and depressing. And they all basically sounded the same way.  When I saw  the title, "As Good As It Gets"  I had such Great Expectations


title: Delightful music

text: An excellent purchase. It has lots of songs


title: Chilled Trance

text: I actually bought this set of CD's when I was a teenager. Age 31, and I remembered it recently when I wanted to buy some relaxing music. People who don't listen to trance can really misunderstand it sometimes. I highly recommend this CD set because this music is just as relaxing as classical music. The only different between the two is the equipment being used to make the music. Very soothing, something you can sleep or study to.

text: Great CD!


title: One of Kanye’s best (in my opinion)

text: This album is a spirtual experience. Would always fall asleep during tests, put the album on and I would have more vigor than the teacher. I highly recommend it


title: Into The Mind Of Judy Garland

text: It has taken me ten years to find a copy of this CD since hearing clips on the Howard Stern Show. The CD is only meant for diehard Judy Garland fans with a morbid curiosity for a legend in her final years. Judy meant these self recorded monologues as a basis for her autobiography which was never written. These records are fascinating and the closest thing to getting into the mind of a superstar.


title: Sometimes mellow sometimes high energy!

text: I enjoy listening to this group from "Down Under" singing the verses of Psalm. Being a Baha'i I feel the spiritual connection with the Hidden Words of Baha'u'llah. These songs could touch the open heart of those of many Faith as they mostly focus on Spiritual teachings that run through them. This particular CD covers Psalms 19, 77, 27 but breaks them up into different verses for each Psalm, except Psalm 96 which is only one song. I like playing them at our MultiFaith Devotionals, as well as for private meditations. There is a variety of styles, some very mellow and some high spirited, but not gospel like....which I would have liked.


title: nice

text: if you like maroon 5  you will like this


title: Very entertaining

text: Great to hear this soundtrack after all these years. Note Elaine Paige's first ever featured role.


title: Don Francisco is a Trubadour

text: Don Francisco songs tells stories. Not just any stories, but stories of the Bible. He captures human emotional reponses to the acts of grace Jesus the Christ performed for those He came into contact with.<br />Some of the songs will literally bring tears to your eyes as you relate to the joy, pain and/or excitement.

title: Amazing Original Recording of Jam Session

text: Amazing original recording of the actual jam session of these 4 remarkable men!!  It is not a concert recording, so not all songs are the full song.  You can hear the men talking amongst themselves as well.  If you are a fan, do not pass this by.  You won't be disappointed.
