title: The Best Compilation of this music I've ever heard!

text:
It is a great compilation of all the right songs performed by the artists that made them famous.  It's a shame that Reader's Digest no longer offers this multi-disc collection.  There are a lot of people over age 55 who would buy it.  The collection was playing at a store I was shopping in.  Before I left the store I asked about the music and wrote down the information and ordered the collection that afternoon from Amazon.  The shop owner said I was the 4th person that had done so over recent months -- everytime the store chose to play it.
  This is the first review I've ever written about anything I've purchased.  It will probably be my last.  The feeling I get listening to these 4 discs for some hours is one I really like!

title: Not what item was described as

text: The description states "Original Artists".  Most of the songs are not the original artists. But, because the collection was used and not very expensive, it's not worth my time or aggravation to return it.

title: Amazing Rock Singer Greg Volz

text: Greg Volz is an amazing rock singer with a broad vocal range. Before he became a Christian in 1970 he performed with the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and others. In 1976 he was asked to join legendary Christian rock band Petra with whom he stayed with until 1986 and in my opinion should have stayed with longer. The songs on this album are well written and are mostly in the style of 80s hard rock. Greg Volz was definitely one of the best Christian rock singers back in the day but with his talent he could have easily rivaled most anyone in the secular world of music as well. He even covered "Dream On" which is a song by secular band Aerosmith. The album is heavy on very impressive guitar playing, keyboards, drums and of course excellent vocals by Greg Volz himself. If you like 80s to early 90s hard rock then you will love this album. Even if you`re not a Christian don`t let that stop you from enjoying this man`s amazing voice and musical talent.

title: Outstanding new CD by Jim Reeves with Patsy Cline

text: This new Jim Reeves CD is an incredibly wonderful update of Jim’s music that will astonish his fans. It proves that Gentleman Jim truly had a timeless voice! He is presented here with some accompaniment that is just outstanding. The guitar work alone is top-of-the-line and no wonder: the lead guitarist is a Grammy Award Winner. All of the musical elements fit together so well and Jim’s voice is powerful, yet gentle. I cannot fathom anyone who would trash this release except to say he must have some personal agenda. The criticism of it as being choppy or in any way bad is just bizarre. Everything is in perfect tempo, Patsy DOESN’T sound “draggy”. In fact, from looking at the various online fan sites for Patsy her followers are positively THRILLED with how she sounds with Jim Reeves on these miraculously engineered new duets. Jim was always looking for ways to come up with something fresh and different. He was ahead of his time and experimental. He was even using oboe on country songs, and trombone, etc. I think he would definitely have embraced the modern sound of the instrumentation that is backing him here. It brings Jim Reeves to new audiences by appealing to current tastes in music while preserving his magnificent voice. Don't fall for the line of bull about this being a bad CD. If you look at the CD credits you will find musicians who are at the top of the music industry who played on this CD.


title: Outstanding!!!!

text: I’ve been a Jim Reeves fan for a long time but I have to admit this CD surprised me. The new arrangements sound so contemporary you’d swear Jim just recorded these songs today. His voice really was one for the ages. The musicianship is always great on the VoiceMasters overdubs, but the players featured this time are really exceptional. In reading the liner notes it describes who some of them are, and the big artists (not just country) they have backed. Wow. Combine Jim Reeves’s flawless voice with a group of the finest musicians working today and you have an EXCELLENT CD that is so enjoyable I am sure I will be listening to it over and over. Every song is a masterpiece.


title: ELVIS IS TRULY REBORN WITH THESE FRESH SOUNDS!!

text: I enjoyed "Elvis Reborn" (the first volume) so much I hoped for a sequel and this is it! It does not disappoint. It's 30 more songs that have taken on a whole new feeling of being alive. Back in the mono days all the instruments and the singer were bunched up together and things could sound muddy. But as I understand it, DES now lets the engineers separate everything and so they can remix, change the volume of instruments, help us hear the original performances better. The proof is in the listening. This CD just sparkles with freshness and excitement. Honestly, you can hear the individual musicians better on these new stereo mixes. I hope they continue releasing these. The label is one I follow and they never disappoint!


title: New Jim Reeves Christmas cd

text: This new Jim Reeves Christmas CD is a real gem.  Larry Jordan augmented the original instruments with more embellishment to make it sound better and also there is material on the CD that Jim never commercially released before, etc. Do yourself a favor and buy this cd.  I promise you won't be disappointed!!


title: Welcome addition to my Jim Reeves collection!!

text: Absolutely fantastic cd.  Larry Jordon has gone above and beyond in keeping Jim Reeves music alive and well.  These songs have new music arrangements and one new duet that sounds as if Jim just recorded it today.  A must have for all Jim Reeves fans!!


Another outstanding Jim Reeves album!! Thanks to Larry Jordan and Voice Masters for continuing to produce new material by one of the greatest voices of all time, Gentleman Jim Reeves!!


title: Music without boundaries

text:
In 2007, Trent Reznor fulfilled his contractual obligation to Interscope Records, and announced he was going to create music independently. Upon hearing this news, I was very curious to see what he would create without the shadow of a record company over his shoulder. Knowing this, a 2 disc collection of 36 instrumentals just seems to make complete sense as it's the exact type of thing that a big record company would reject as being "not commercially viable."

The album as a whole strikes me as a grand experiment. Some of the tracks are songs with an identifiable beginning, middle and end. But many sound like just a bit or a piece, as if Trent wrote a song, decided that he only liked one part of it and decided to simply clip off the rest rather than try to build a full blown song out of one good part. Or maybe they were simply songs he didn't feel needed to be extended past two minutes. Trent Reznor, rather than make an album of conventional music, used his first chance recording free of a the control of a record label to make music without any boundaries and created a unique musical experience.

I don't feel as if this album is meant to be studied. It has no deeper meaning. The tracks don't have titles, as if to say "just to make sure you don't bother to look into their meanings." They're not "about" any one thing. The songs are simply songs. The sticker on the front reads "A soundtrack for daydreams," and as that, it works perfectly. It's excellent as background music for your subconscious to absorb. Is it for everyone? Absolutely not. It's a niche record from an established artist. Ghosts I is available for free from the official website to give you a chance to see if this is for you before you pay for the whole thing. If you don't enjoy Ghosts, don't feel as if you're missing out, as it's not for everyone.

title: Must Buy

text: Best CD I purchased in along time. Jess has a killer voice and when she sings she is very soulful and connects to her songs and you feel that. Great lyrics that you can relate too. Very underrated artist and I wish he US music industry would take notice. She would make a great artist to have on Good Morning America summer concerts or a music guest on Ellen. Found her music listening to a UK radio station so I could hear different music from what is played in the states. My daughter and friends are hooked are her music as well. Must buy CD.


title: Janis, move over

text: Beth Hart is an amazing performer, artiste, song writer, and musician. I've never been disappointed in any CD or live performance. She is as electric and intense as Janis Joplin at her best, and possibly just a bit better. I highly recommend this CD and this artist.

CD production is more elaborated, with two "electronic" versions of Cometas por el cielo. DVD contains the concert in Mexico, also very good done by Televisa Mexico.

title: From when Jazz was not dead, but smelled funny...

text:
There's good trombone playing everywhere, usually muffled through effects but technically brilliant.  But then there's also a heart-clogging dose of cheesiness, with sparkly four-on-the-floor beats and female backup singers.  It's hard to tolerate a full listen, but each side has one absolutely SMOKIN track, plus a smattering of interesting elements scattered amongst the elevator-type numbers.

The album cover with the giant afro and the valve bone is pretty cool.  Thus I now own this plate.


title: Great Bluegrass CD

text: Bought this for my grandmother as we enjoy listening to Bluegrass when we go on lunch dates.

title: 44 years after it was originally released … this is good to have

text:
I have been waiting for this to come to CD (or, better yet, as a download) for decades.  It is a good as the vinyl ever was, and enjoyable to listen to after all these years.

The disappointments are … this sounds as if it is a recording from a (well-preserved) album (rather than directly from the master tapes), the CD does NOT include the libretto (which came with the original two-disc album), and, as I recall it, the band (Smoke Rise) had a number of additional songs that filled out the work (when they performed it live) that did not make the album.  One could have hoped that, after all this time, when the work was finally released on CD, the record label could have included the entirety of the rock opera.

Make no mistake … this is the complete album.  But, the album did not include the entire rock opera.

title: Good Music - a little too cute at times

text:
What do I mean by "Too Cute"? The lyrics are a bit like a children's song in that they tend to rhyme, every two lines.

However, I do recomend buying this as it contains some great tracks.

2) Wolfen One

  Not too sweet, but not bitter either. A wife reflects on her life with her husband

3) Only The Music

  Filrting at the dance

4) Smoke Filled Pictures

  Yes it's petty self-gratification of a bard. So What? It's still a good song.

5) Brannigan's Special Ale

  A fine bit of humor- wish I could get some. It would be even more fun than E-lax Brownies (yes, I AM evil!)

6) Dance In The Circle

  Trips to underhill, One-way tickets

8) Midsummer

  Album title piece- well sung.

9) Shattered Glass

  A song about starting over.

11) March of Cambreath

  The US Armed Forces should have a song like this

12) Courage Knows No Bounds

  Mellocolly of a war won

13) Flesh Against the Thorn

  Love hurts

And those are the tracks I liked

I've collected the cassette & cd too. It makes you think about eternity & the fact that there is such a thing as truth. (Something our society has sadly pushed aside). It has some interesting characters that I will always remember. Thank you!

title: One Of The Best Ever!

text: This self-titled LP by Burning Rome is one of my all-time favorite records. Very little is known about them. They were fronted by the beautiful Vicki Thomas whose voice was perfect for this catchy, hard rock style. The songs are crisp, catchy and the musicianship is top notch. Great drummer! Favorite songs are the heavy, haunting "Trouble" and "The Nearest Thing To Love" which starts out with a Policeish/Reggae influenced beat much like Elvis Costello's "Watching The Detectives". This LP isn't great all the way through but there are enough standouts to make this an excellent record. I only wish I could get it on CD. I have also wondered for years what they are doing now and how the hell they never made it!


title: Great sound

text: This is one of my favorite CDs ...ever since I heard it.


title: CD like new

text: Used CD but excellent condition.


title: All You Other Guys- How Can You Stand the Vibrato?

text: Despite all the multitudes of praise I must state that these performances are contaminated with an incessant, abhorrent, and inappropriate vibrato.<br />I tried to enjoy the music but the intrusion of all that terrible warbling and shaking of tone absolutely destroyed the purity of the music. It's strange too, that the the other recording of Eton by the 16, the single disc, white, with an unadorned cross on the cover, is perfect. Beautiful sustained pure singing without the infection of vibrato. As for these recordings in this big set, I got rid of them and sought for purity elsewhere.

title: Grass Roots 1st

text: I think it is a great compilation of songs,some originals,some covers. Just the right amount of production.I really like the cover of Paul Simons I Am A Rock. Sound quality is very good, maybe not quite up to the original vinyl lp in stereo(which I believe sounds superior to the mono on this lp) Original lp is not that easy to find in nice shape these days.May have sold a few more copies if it had come out with catchier front cover artwork. I like it as much as their 2nd lp.Both are 60's classics.

title: An excellent album of not boring music from a woman whose voice is enchanting

text: I just wanted to let you all know that Mira is a fantastic vocalist in her own right. Her range is quite large and the pieces are very funny and at times so lovely tears come. It is quite interesting and will hold your attention. If you can find it. I played it in my book shop. People wanted to know what it was and where to get a copy.


title: No. Just NO!

text: All I needed to listen to was the fourth movement to proclaim this is not a good recording. Chorus has too many sopranos and tenors thinking this is their recital. Intonation all over the place. I am praying the recording with the Berlin Philharmonic blows this one away.

text: One of my favorite C/W singers who happens to be from Ireland . What a voice.


title: The Best Close-Harmony Blues Album You Never Heard

text: A rare find! This album is so much better than the commercial success of this group would ever suggest that it's hardly worth mentioning that they had a hit in 1970 with "Time To Get It Together," a feel-good clone of Kumbaya.  That's not even close to being the best song in this album. The bluegrass twang opening of "Longing To Be Free" sets you up for a soaring and unexpected harmonic assault that raises goose bumps.  There are several other exciting discoveries to be made in this set, but my standout favorite is "Giving Up Trying To Please You," a lyric about coming to grips with reality that is poignant, melodic, gut-wrenching and soothing all at the same time.  Any fan of bluesy close harmony will prize this collection.

title: A seminal work of the off-Broadway renaissance of the 1970's, "Promenade" should be much better known today

text: This LP is an original cast recording of Promenade, book by Maria Irene Fornes and music by the Rev. Al Carmines, both winners of the Oscar of off-broadway theater, the Obie award. The show debuted in 1969 in the Promenade Theater, which was named for it.  The premise is rather like Candide:  Two prisoners escape and , in an attempt to worm their way into high society encounter all sorts of situations and characters , who appear in a variety of vignettes.  True to its period, the show presents quite a bit of social commentary through its exuberant, funny, and often heartwrenching songs.  Al's music draws on his early influences of gospel, vaudeville and opera, mainly, which he interprets in his own melodic, irrepressible  style.  The songs are all standouts, and the structure of the play enables each one to be enjoyed as an independent entity, making them work well as a recording.  "Capricious and Fickle", sung by the incomparable Alice Playten, is considered by many to be one of the best theater songs ever written .  Other standouts include the sardonic "Cigarette Song" with its distinctive take on life , the rollicking "Unrequited Love", and the searing self-knowledge of "I Saw a Man".  Though tremendously appealing, "Promenade" confronts its audience as well as entertaining it.  Along with the originality of words and music, it is this confrontational quality which insures its central place in the avant-garde theater that flourished in New York's Greenwich Village in the 1960's and 1970s.

I shall continue to be devoted to CHARLES AZNAVOUR because he is a great artist, but I shall pay attention to the material I buy.Yes, I'm truly bilingual!

Warning to "rockin' Neil lovers": these songs are all ballads, sung slowly and softly---perfect for just relaxing & mellowing out with. Besides being one of the most prolific of song writers and an exquisite guitar player (even though he doesn't think so!), he pours heart and soul into every track. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who loves the "softer" side of Neil.

title: Thrilling, witty, rhythmic alt country/roots rock

text:
I have no idea how this album has not received more attention.  John Hawkes, who plays Sol Star on HBO's Deadwood, is the lead-lead singer, joined by two other gentlemen who also sing.  This album is full of fantastically witty lyrics, delivered (especially by Hawkes) with a disarming drawl.

Rebel is a perfect example.  Gentle guitar picking accompanies Mr. Hawkes' languid drawling of lyrics like:

"Yeah, I'm a Rebel/I mean I'm trying to be/I used to be/It's hard to be a Rebel in a world where everybody is cool/In a world where everybody is on the edge/Where the subcultures have been sucked up/At least the fashions, the look/In a world where long-haired yuppies ride Harleys/Where preppies sport tattos/And even preteen kids from Bellaire have been there and done that."

Or Good Man, which is a plaintive cry for bettering oneself.

"If I could I would say these words/I am a good man"

"A good man, opens every door

A good man, don't make out with whores"

Someday I am going to say these words/I am a good man"

"Haunted by my truth/Suffocated truth

A Piece of me has to die/Before I find the strength to fly."

And it ends with the repeated refrain, "I am a good man."

Simply beautiful.  And though provoking all the while.  And I've been listening to it regularly since I saw the band live in a little live music venue in Deep Ellum, Dallas, Texas.

title: A great jazz album and one of the best Jaco recordings ever!

text:
As a longtime Jaco fan who has gone to some lengths to get any recordings with him on it, I was astounded to come across this album only recently. Why haven't I heard of this before?! Not only does it have some sterling work by Jaco, but pianist Jon Davis and drummer Brian Melvin also have thrilling ideas and top-notch technical performance.
This was Jaco's last recording, and is a must-have for Jaco fans. As Brian Melvin is quoted as saying in the liner notes, "Jaco was in very good spirits. He had never been featured on record in this format before. His timing was impeccable and his ideas were brilliant, giving me as a drummer a great deal to work with. Jaco wasn't just a bass player; he was a master musician and an orchestrator who played bass. He was one of a kind."
Overall, it's a thoroughly enjoyable album with performance gems scattered throughout. As a whole, I think it may be the most listenable jazz album I've come across since Kind of Blue. In particular, "So What" and "Village Blues" stand out as some of the best renditions of those tunes I've heard anywhere.
It's a shame that albums like this can go unnoticed for so long while more prosaic middle of the road stuff can enjoy wide airplay. If I had my way, every serious jazz lover and musician would have a copy of this album.

title: Resistance is futile!

text:
What is The Ghastly Love of Johnny X?  Is it science fiction?  Is it a musical? Is it homage?  Yes, yes, and yes. But above all it's a completely unique, weird, wild, and wacky movie, from the unique, weird, wild, and wacky imagination of filmmaker Paul Bunnell.  Shot in gorgeous black-and-white scope, it's not an easy film to describe and it's best just to see it as soon as you possibly can (it's currently available on dvd through Amazon Prime).  It's clever, funny, quirky, with an occasional dash of David Lynchian weirdness, and it's sort of unlike any other film you've seen.  And any movie that has Kevin McCarthy AND Paul Williams is worth catching.

Composer Ego Plum has come up with a fantastic score - big, orchestral, and immensely entertaining.  Occasionally channeling the ghosts of Bernard Herrmann (especially The Day the Earth Stood Still), John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith, and Franz Waxman (especially The Bride of Frankenstein), Plum's score is infectious, melodic, and grand fun, and despite the occasional homages, wildly original.  Big orchestra, choir, the ubiquitous theremin sound, a twangy guitar, all of it - a classic sci-fi genre score.  Add to that clever and catchy songs (six of `em) by composer/lyricist Scott Martin (and orchestrated by Plum) and you have one incredibly entertaining seventy-minute CD.

The Ghastly Love of Johnny X is limited to 1000 copies only.

When I previewed this CD online here on Amazon.com I was enchanted to its melodies and enjoyed several different influences this collection offered. I try not to over analyze as music can mean and feel differently to different souls based on life's trials and experiences. I will just encourage if you enjoy a more spiritually uplifting music than many of today's desensitised offerings please preview this collection here and decide for yourself. I give this collection a high recommendation.

The Ocean Grove Auditorium Organ has been a part of my life since I was a little boy. Curator John Shaw and organist Gordon Turk built the instrument into an immense pallet of tone colors over four decades.

Dr. Turk, who has served as Great Auditorium Organist since 1974, does a wonderful job of showing off the capabilities of the 200+-rank Hope Jones organ in a program that combines staples of the repertoire with a variety of less familiar but quite beautiful compositions.


title: A Musician's Calling

text: I found this novel very engrossing from the first chapter to the last. The self-dialogue that Giani conducted with himself about his anger and his deep pain was so vivid and real.

A great read!

text: Wonderful anthology of Anathallo's earlier songs - I especially enjoyed the use of brass instrumentation as well as the great, emotional vocals. It's rare that I like such a high percentage of the tracks on an album, so for a double CD it was definitely worth it. My favorites were A Holiday at the Sea (A HOLIDAY!), Fugue: 24 (lots of focus on the brass), and A Song for Christine (interesting and unique rhythm).

title: Lynda Carter PORTRAIT

text: This album SHOULD be digitally remastered and released on CD. When I watched the 'Amazon Hot Wax' episode of "Wonder Woman" Ms. Carter would perform two tracks from this album; "Next To You" and "Toto (Don't It Feel Like Paradise)". Ms. Carter has a great voice. On the back cover of "Portrait" she looks like she's doing her impression of Catherine Bach as Daisy Duke. So it's hopeful "Portrait" would be digitally remastered and released on CD. Ms. Carter still own the rights to the album, as well as her TV specials.


title: One of the low key greatest albums of all time.

text:
I can’t tell you how I discovered this band, at all. My guess would be a random pop up song on Spotify. However, this was several years ago. I’m talking almost 8-9 years ago, that I discovered this band.

The tracks felt familiar, humble, gentle, yet deep and euphoric. As I dug deeper into this album I realized just how fantastic it truly was. There are moments or events in your life where you connect to a certain song, and/or in this case an entire album. I remember playing this album with an ex girlfriend I was madly in love with (my first love actually), sharing a bottle of wine and getting pretty buzzed. It was a euphoric and beautiful moment. It always takes me back to that moment. It’s not her I think about anymore. It’s just the moment. And music that has the power and ability to deliver those moments time and time again upon hearing them, that to me is what makes a masterpiece.

This album is a masterpiece. James Ewers is one of the most fantastic singers I’ve ever heard. And it’s clear his song-writing ability is nothing short of amazing as well. These songs are so beautifully and masterfully composed. The whole album flows tremendously well together. It feels raw. It feels real. It is a rock album. It is an indie rock album. It’s whatever you want it to be. Just let it take you to that special moment like it does me.

10/10 will be playing at my funeral

title: Finally...Restored original hair raising surround recording.

text:
Kudos to Michael Dutton for offering a remastering of this original full surround orchestral recording.  Sony, in their awkward first super audio CD release of this recording took an ideal demonstration disc of their DSD technology and remixed it to stereo with artificial reverb in the rear channels!  Add to this error their bone headed decision to release them in SACD format only which angered more than a few unwitting buyers who then could not play them on their standard CD player.  Meanwhile virtually every other label produced hybrid SACD - CD discs playable on most any device.

Dutton has also released Boulez' surround recording of Stravinsky's Pulcinella on a disc with his near definitive recording of Petrouchka with the New York Philharmonic.  I highly recommend that as well as this particular disc.  It's companion on this release is an outstanding performance of the complete Bartok Miraculous Mandarin ballet score.

Collectors may recall that when the Bartok Concerto for Orchestra was first released in 1972 it was touted as the first true classical surround recording, made with Boulez surrounded by the musicians rotating between two music stands & scores to manage orchestral cues and balances.  It's a taut and exciting performance revealing significant orchestral details with all the mystery, humor and ultimately a hair raising finale.  You hear strings and percussion arrayed across the front speakers with woodwinds & brass placed in the rear.

The equally atmospheric & exciting Mandarin ballet score was recorded in Philharmonic hall in standard concert layout with hall acoustics captured for playback from the rear speakers.  This is an excellent demonstration disc for a multi channel playback system.  I highly recommend it along with the Boulez Stravinsky Petrouchka and Pulcinella disc.  Get them while they are available.  Finally, they are hybrid discs, playable on most any current CD, SACD, Blu-ray player.


title: Bernstein's Concert for Peace in the National Cathedral Finally Restored to its Quadraphonic Splendor

text:
Bernstein was an ideal interpreter of Haydn, so much so that Haydn scholar H.C. Robbins-Landon praised his symphony and mass recordings. This was the kind of performance that, like Bernstein's famous post Berlin Wall Beethoven Ninth, has an enormous sense of occasion.  In this case it was a "Concert for Peace" in Washington D.C.'s National Cathedral with members of the National Symphony & the excellent Norman Scribner chorale along with a fine quartet of vocal soloists.  As one might expect, the cathedral acoustic was not the most ideal for the more contrapuntal sections of Haydn's Missa in Tempore Belli, but the detailed microphone placement affords ample clarity along with its expected artificiality and brightness.  The sound stage arrays the orchestra & soloists in front from left to right, with the choristers massed to your side left and right.

The performance is brisk, lively & taut with ample contrast between the exciting and more contemplative sections of the mass.  I believe Bernstein's Haydn recordings in general benefit from the same approach he gives to his Mahler recordings.  He fully embraces the sophisticated classicism along with the simple, rustic elements Haydn incorporated into his pieces. In terms of warmth and clarity listeners may prefer a tighter small ensemble approach such as Marriner's or an historically informed recording with period instruments, but this 1973 recording suits me just fine.  Michael Dutton's remastering in comparison with the 20 bit CD masterings from Sony Classical not only restores the original quadraphonic track separation, but is also warmer, clearer and smoother edged.  If you like Haydn's highly moving Mass in Time of War and have a multi-channel sound system, I highly recommend you give this disc a spin and take full advantage of its four channels.


title: Demonstration Quality Quadraphonic Recordings Beautifully Restored to Multi-Channel SACD

text:
Upon its initial release, critics lauded Boulez' New York "Petrushka" recording for its precision, transparency and attractively engineered sound despite being recorded in the acoustically challenged Philharmonic Hall.  Boulez coaxed a more refined sound from the orchestra than his predecessor Bernstein while also enjoying improvements in analog sound recording. It transferred well to CD with 20-bit mastering but MIchael Dutton's remastering to DSD not only smooths out the frequency response, but also restores the original quadraphonic sound stage giving it more depth, resonance and clarity.  Few could be bothered with setting up quad sound systems in the 70s due to the cost of additional speakers, amplifier & pre-amp not to mention the confusing existence of 3 competing encoding systems for LPs and the poor quality of pressings in the 1970s. This remastering places the listener in the equivalent of a front orchestra seat in a moderately resonant hall.

Kudos to Dutton for restoring the original 4 channel source.  It's a shame that Sony Classical, Universal and Warner Classical have neglected to do the same with all the wonderful material in their vaults now that so many of us have multi-channel theater systems and Blu-Ray players which support surround sound recordings like this.

I'd never heard the Pulcinella recording but it competes nicely with the excellent ones I've heard by Marriner and the Academy of St. Martin's on Decca and a complete version on Naxos with Stefan Sanderling, the Bournemouth Sinfonietta and tenor Ian Bostridge. The sound stage is gimicky with the listener surrounded by the musicians on all sides: woodwinds and trombone on the rear left, trumpets and string bass on the rear right. It's a fun demonstration disc for those with a multi-channel system and a lively and taut account of the suite from Stravinsky's piquant balletic synthesis of the music of Pergolesi. The previously unreleased Scherzo Fantastique is a real find.  Stravinsky displays his brilliant facility for orchestration in this playful & atmospheric 11 minute piece.  The sound stage again places you in the middle of the orchestra.

The unusual and austere Symphonies of Wind Instruments compares nicely with my favorite recording on Philips by Edo de Waart and the Netherlands Wind Ensemble.  You are again completely surrounded by the musicians which provides additional clarity in the multi-channel layer. I highly recommend this to those who appreciate these pieces and wish to show off their sound system to its fullest.


title: A Bruckner 8th by Eichhorn - as Good as Giulini's, Karajan's, Schuricht's or Wand's and in Excellent Sound.

text:
This recording is quite a sleeper, from a conductor little known outside of his native Germany and by the Bruckner Orchestra of Linz.  It is produced by a Japanese audiophile "boutique" label.  The musicians of this eponymous orchestra perform as if they could play the composer's music in their sleep.  (I write this after having heard their recordings of the 1st, 4th, 7th and now this one of the 8th.)  The conductor's approach is straight forward and self-effacing.  He fully comprehends the necessary approach to a Bruckner symphony: mastering the architecture so the climaxes are well placed, maintaining tension throughout slow passages and not fussing too much with individual phrases while carefully managing transitions in tempo.  The heart of this powerful work is the 3rd movement adagio and Eichhorn paces it beautifully.  His overall approach is not as slow as Wand's or Karajan's but neither is it particularly fast.

The orchestra sounds typically central european particularly the woodwinds. The strings and brass are full bodied and warm.  The brass play with  minimal vibrato and the horns' timber reminiscent of the Vienna Philharmonic.  The instrumental choirs blend nicely; the brass don't overpower the strings.  Camarata's recording is excellent, recorded in the orchestra's modern concert hall.  They create a balanced, front of the hall sound, warm but not too resonant and blended but sufficiently detailed.  It definitely sounds superior to the justly popular Karajan Vienna Philharmonic CD on DG which is lacking in bass and over mic'd.

I have heard and enjoyed several recordings of this work, all of which I can recommend, but if you can find this particular one I think you will be pleased with it. It now goes to the top of my list.  Eichhorn uses the Nowak edition.  These represent Bruckner's final thoughts on his works, and in my opinion, are the most sensible, revised, edited and well formed.  The Haas editions tend to include more music from earlier versions which many think is appropriate assuming the composer was capitulating to critics and conductors to trim the length of his works.  I don't have any particular preference for Haas or Nowak in this score.  I like them both. These are my impressions of the recordings I've heard so far:

Karajan's:1957 Berlin Philharmonic EMI: shows its age. The performance is not as well shaped as his penultimate recording. Haas.
Schuricht 1963 Vienna Philharmonic EMI SACD:  A moving no nonsense performance. Very exciting & moving performance when he was 85!  The SACD remastering is warm, detailed and distortion free. Nowak.
Szell 1967 Cleveland Orch. Sony:  This is one of the most beautiful recordings they made in Severance hall.  Taut, a bit strict, but it works and comes with a good recording of the 3rd.  Nowak edition.
Giulini  1985 Vienna Philharmonic DG: A moving slow performance, played by the perfect Bruckner orchestra and well recorded.  Nowak.
Karajan's 1988 Vienna Philharmonic DG: a moving "spiritual" performance but extremely slow.  Recording is not the best sounding. Haas.
Wand 1987 NDR Symphony BMG: recorded live in Lubeck cathedral, another slow "spiritual" recording, beautifully recorded. a sense of occasion. Haas.
Wand 2002 Berlin Philharmonic BMG: A live recording from the Philharmonie, dry and not as good as his earlier recording.  Haas.


title: Delightful Complete Nutcracker - Top recommendation.

text: This is a delightful, lithe and graceful but dramatic performance of the full length ballet, captured in excellent sound as recorded in Abbey Road studio one.  It is warm, detailed and nicely resonant.  The London Philharmonic produces a transparent lightly textured sound very appropriate for the work.  Mariss Jansons has formidable competition here from Michael Tilson-Thomas and the Philharmonia on Sony, Dorati's classic London Symphony recording on Mercury, and his remake with the Concertgebouw on Philips but can stand with the best of them.  I find many of his performances prosaic, but he is fully involved here, conducting a spirited well-shaped recording.


title: Early Digital "Rite" Recording still Resounds!

text:
This early digital release by Decca continues to hold its place among many audiophile quality recordings of Stravinsky's landmark score. Antal Dorati, former music director of both the Ballet Russe and what was to become American Ballet Theater had an affinity for dance scores like this, conducting them with well-sprung rythyms, perfect tempos and taut ensemble.  He worked wonders with 2nd tier orchestras as evidenced in his landmark Mercury recordings with the Minneapolis Symphony, producing landmark first recordings of full length Tchaikovsky ballets.  I was fortunate to grow up near D.C. when he took over an ailing National Symphony, immediately improving its ensemble and building audiences and reputation with his innovativw programs which included local premieres of twentieth century works by Messiaen and Dallapiccola.  He led the orchestra on its first European tours and renewed recording activity.  Fortunately his recording efforts with Decca continued when he became music director of the Detroit Symphony, taking full advantage of Decca's excellent engineers and Detroit's fine recording venues.  The real star of this recording may well be the United Artists Theater, a run-down & neglected old movie theater with outstanding acoustics. The recording is brilliant and clear, with strong bass response and a wide & deep sound stage.  The lively acoustic provides warmth and air around the musicians without obscuring inner detail.  There is a bit of early digital edge to the sound but it remains a demonstration quality recording.

The performance is taut and exciting with well chosen brisk tempos.  The opening bassoon solo is beautifully played.  The wind and brass sections are particularly excellent.  Dorati maintains precise balances throughout while varying color in repeated passage work..  His interpretations tended to become more relaxed with age, but this performance is more like his assertive early Mercury recordings.  The short playing time was rather greedy and all too common in early digital recordings, but at used CD prices not an issue.  This recording is even included as part of a special"Rite of Spring" 100th anniversary celebration produced recently by Decca, containing 20 CDs of the work!.

I compared this recording with several notable "Rite" performances including those by Tilson-Thomas and the SF Symphony on RCA, the Boulez/Cleveland Orch. on Sony, Bernstein's savage NY Phil. on Sony (the one that led the composer to exclaim "Wow") and Esa Pekka-Salonen's LA Phil. on DGG recorded live in the Disney Hall on SACD.  It holds its own against this fierce competition.  The Salonen/LA performance is representative of the latest recording technology, boasting the smoothest response curve from its hi-res DSD origins and outstanding acoustic venue.  This 1981 Decca recording by comparison sounds more biting and brilliant, qualities not inappropriate for such a work.  If you see it lying around a used CD bin, pick it up and give it a lsten.


title: Nothin’ But the Truth

text:
Need I say more.  The live rendition of this song is Ian Hunter at his intense most !!  Worth the cost of this CD 10 times over.
The song Nothin’ But the Truth is the essence of Ian’s truth.  It took me on a trip that slapped me in the face the 1st time I heard it.  The guitar work adds a trippy Hendrix vibe that will leave you wondering what just happened.
Don’t miss out on this cd.  It’s Hunter at his best.

text: What a shame to find that it is no longer available for digital download.  I have been searching for a digital copy for quite some time.  sigh.  Bring it back please.


title: Five Stars

text: Fine


title: A question, really

text: We had this album on vinyl when our sons were growing up and loved it. Was it never issued on CD?


title: Multi-talented man

text: And the same Phil Hoose who wrote one of my all-time favorite children’s books — ‘Hey, Little Ant’. Introduces children to a moral dilemma in a humorous and rhyming way, and does not solve it for them. OMG, someone should transfer this album to CD. I am a naturalist and a folk-music librarian. Always love it when my worlds overlap.


title: AN EXCELLENT BUY

text: CD IN EXCELLENT CONDITION; DELIVERY WAS QUICK; PRICE WAS WONDERFUL; WOULD BUY FROM THIS SELLER AGAIN


title: Five Stars

text: Item as described. Quick shipment


title: Precious memories. Their music will delight your soul.

text: I purchased this for a dear friend. He and I enjoyed listening to the music and he was so delighted to be taken back to a time when he had so many memories listening to these songs for the first time.

title: How Great Is Our God, Indescribable, Hope

text:
We have only viewed How Great Is Our God and it is amazing and really puts everything into perspective.  We've never understood how anyone could believe that we just happened.

Looking forward to time to view the other DVDs,


title: Great

text: Exactly what I wanted and met my expectations.

text: This early 10" LP merely reissued the 4 discs in an album of 78s. The price and scarcity of this Columbia 10" LP inspired me to simply find and scoop up the four 78rpm discs readily available in Excellent condition and probably sounding even better and saving nearly $150 over this price.  10" LPs are not known to be much less surface-noisy than the 78s they replaced. Now I have just found this 10" LP for $2.99, so patience has paid off....meanwhile all these 78s in Excellent condition sound fantastic, probably better than the LP....78s spin faster and usually contain more detailed sonic information, assuming you have a good system to play 78s without further damaging them like the old "needles" did!


title: Emotionally blank, vocally inept

text: Sounds like a rushed project; could only bear to listen once — vocals are dry/brittle and unsteady.


title: Halloween fun for K-1!!

text: These songs are perfect to use in kindergarten and first grade.  My kindergarten students begged for Head and Shoulders, Knees and Bones, If You Love Halloween Clap Your Hands, and The Ghosts in the House Go Boo! Boo! Boo!, especially.  It is a delightful set of Halloween songs, and great to use to get the children singing and dancing!

title: Five Stars

text: One of the best local Christian bands from the early 90s. Or course I'm a little biased.


title: Five Stars

text: Huge fan of Wjsn! Of course I’m giving it a 5 star! It was packaged so well! Gorgeous album!


title: WOW

text: I really wish that I discovered her amazing voice sooner, when it was easier (possible) to buy her CD's.  The older ones are especially hard to find.  I feel fortunate to find this one.


title: Go Here, There, & Back!

text: Great Southern Classic Rock, however, this CD does not sound "as Southern" as many others from this genre.  The songs exhibit more of an AOR quality.  The lyric writing and musicianship were great, especially for a first (and only) album.  I really wish they would have recorded and released more material!  I think this line-up was a better showcase than some of the other projects that came from other combinations of Lynyrd Skynyrd members.  This is a great CD for classic Southern Rock, and classic AOR fans!  Enjoy!


title: Hit the road with the Road Hammers!

text: Great driving music!  This should appeal to fans of country rock and truck driving music of the 1970's!  Truck driving music was very popular when I was young and many albums and tapes were to be readily found at the time!  This band does a great job re-creating that sound and making it their own!  Get it in gear and start jamming with the Road Hammers tunes!


title: Great Classic Rick Live!

text: This is a great selection of live recordings from West, Bruce, and Laing!  This release is essentialy the same as their<br />Live 'N' Kickin' CD, it has the same songs titles and I believe the same performances.  The times and  production are the same as Live 'N' Kickin' as well.  The songs are;Play With Fire; with a time of 13:27, &;The Doctor; with a time of 7:37, &;Politician; with a time of 5:41, and ;Powerhouse Sod; with a time of 10:37.  The sound quality is good and this would be a good addition to a collection for a fan of Mountain, Cream, or any other power trio.  Jack Bruce sang most of the vocals on this release.  Great bass playing by Bruce, Leslie West put out some great guitar and Corky Laing "as usual", never disappoints anyone with his drumming!  Enjoy!


title: Such a great album, and in great quality!

text:
What an interesting album. It combines surf music, Japanese folk music, and HEAVY 70s guitar work. I initially heard a track off this from a surf compilation and scouted the internet for more. I found various vinyl rips of the album posted on youtube and other nefarious download spots of less than stellar quality. Luckily, this CD sounds AMAZING and isn't just another cheap low quality vinyl rip full of pops, crackling and hiss. A great album, highly recommended.

On a side note, anything Takeshi Terauchi has recorded with his band The Blue Jeans that I've heard from the 60s and 70s has been great. He had another backing band called The Bunnys that aren't quite as good as The Blue Jeans, at least the stuff I've heard anyways.


title: Police Story 3 is amazing

text: The best version of this amazing Jackie Chan flick.


title: Five Stars

title: Gospel Soul at it's BEST

text: Kimberlee's latest album LIKE A TREE is not only inspiring, but a great listen. Her voice range is fascinating and simply beautiful and stirring.  This is true Gospel Soul at it's best !  I recommend the album to any faithful soul.  Kimberlee's lyrics and voice are captivating.  Cliff Hahn


title: Lauren Daigle CD

text: Love this CD!


title: CD might be a bit janky (it was not)

text: the album's packaging came in in good condition, the CD I'm not sure though? it doesn't look like it has scratches, when I play it though it starts to raise/lower in volume. Tracks five and six also start to have a static-like noise? Idk if it's the CD itself or what I'm using to play the CD but it's something to keep in mind when purchasing lol. 😅<br />EDIT: it was a me problem lol, the CD is fine.🤡🤡


title: Musica de viento

text: I had to buy 3 CD's before getting this one to get the musica de viento I wanted.


title: Disapointed

text: Songs were rushed by singers- too much yelling--they spoiled the beautiful band music.  Love the two Pedro infante songs.


title: Good for the heart. Beautiful music...

text: Made me remember the beautiful serenatas from my boyfriend in old Mexico...romantic and full of good memories. Highly recommended.


title: Perfect music for a casona in Alamos

text: Beautiful music for quiet evenings in the patio--. soothing, relaxing and perfect to go along with an iced margarita. Highly recommended.


title: Bought it for Pig Destroyer, kind of a let down

text: In an attempt to add some rare releases to my Pig Destroyer collection I got this 3" split with Benumb. Amazon had no information available on it so I rolled the dice.....and was let down! The Benumb songs were OK (nothing special to me but I'm not really a fan, this was the first time I listened to them) and the Pig Destroyer songs were all re-released on their "Painter Of Dead Girls" album. If you don't have that album I'd recommend you buy that (for much less money) if you were only interested in the Pig Destroyer.


title: Very rare music from the younger band

text: Rare songs recorded from when the band was young.

text:
I was very excited to get this set of dies and the ideas on how to use them that are in the magazine. Haven't gotten to use them yet, but am really looking forward to trying them and seeing what I can make from them. I've gotten some of the other 'Die-cutting Essentials' issues and
have been happy with the quality of the dies and matching stamps (when they have stamps). Highly recommend this magazine.
Thanks

title: Great introduction to the 1940s jazz scene in Los Angeles

text: Great CD! It was made by a local jazz radio station here in Los Angleles (KLON 88.1 FM - now KJAZZ 88.1 FM) in 1992 for KLON's Hollywood Jazz Festival, "A Celebration of Jazz in Los Angeles in the 1940s." A great CD for those looking for an introduction to the 1940s jazz scene in Los Angeles. The album art is a book with each track listing and the connection the musician and that track have to Los Angeles. This is another great way those getting an introduction to 1940s LA jazz can find more jazz albums - most track listings also have a reference to what album they were originally recorded on. The first page of the album booklet reads "Although much has been written about the lack of jazz in Southern California during this period, Los Angeles, in fact, played host to a wide variety of jazz throughout the 1940s. There were many venues where jazz musicians could go to find work. Clubs, ballrooms, concerts and jam sessions all provided a forum for many different styles of jazz. Beginning with Duke Ellington and ending with Charles Mingus, this collection is representative of the diverse climate of jazz in Los Angeles in the 1940s." I've had a great time listening to this CD.

title: The CD is not working

text: Hi, I love the album, and the concept and Minji is beautiful, but the main thing for me is the CD, and the CD is not working. I tried playing it on various CD players but nada.


title: Amazing

text: Came on time and with everything in it! One of the pages in the book had some black dots on it that came off when you scratched you finger on it so i don't think it was supposed to be like that but it was small. But overall I really love it!

text: This is an amazing cd what introduces the world of network marketing. It provides a lot of motivation and wisdom that is crucial for anyone who wants to succeed in the business. This is a must have for a network marketing professional.


title: AWESOME LADY with I hope an AWESOME CAREER

text: Halsey is so beyond her years and if you want a collection of songs that speak to your emotions-this is it!  But get the extended version because GASOLINE & CONTROL are essential to her artistic ability and who she is and what will speak to you.


title: YOU WILL REGRET NOT BUYING THIS.......

text: Hip Hop guru here......Trust me when i say this is PUMPIN. Best old skool compilation..songs completely different from all the rest.  Obscure tracks hard to find are in this set.  All CD's in this set are da' bomb!!


title: A so-so movie makes a terrific set of CD's

text: It's easy to see why this movie was such a disaster for Columbia when it came out. The movie was hard to get through and one can see why it was and is considered so terrifying for children.  That said, this set of 3 cd's makes the music of Frederick Hollander both fascinating if not hypnotic.  Some of the development pieces have deteriorated with time, but the really important pieces have transferred just fine. My hat is off to all those at FSM for this set.  Collectors can buy this set with confidence and it makes a great addition to any collection.


title: FINALLY!

text:
I grew up with this recording.  I know the old mono set with Von Karajan conducting for EMI from about the same time period is still the standard, has more blood and thunder in its performance and is more authentic when sung in its mother German. "Hansel and Gretel"  was the first opera to be recorded in complete form by the Metropolitan Opera for Columbia records in the late 1940's and was first issued on 78's (Which obviously served as the basis for this transfer) and came in two volumes.  It was issued in LP form and was available for decades.  Because it is so historic and because still holds such an important place in my childhood memories it is hard for me to be objective about it. I still have two (count 'em two) sets of the LP's which I still listen to. In any event it is a joy to have this recording on CD,  The sound is certainly passable. There are NO liner notes just the barest information of the cast in German which is comical as it is sung in English using the old Constance Bache translation.

Of course the larger question is why Columbia hasn't seen fit to issue this performance on CD themselves?  They are the keepers of the source material.  They have already reissued the majority of the recordings they went on to do with The Met on CD. Considering this was the first collaboration and also knowing the length of time this recording was in the catalogue it's restoration and return on CD is badly needed.  Columbia should take this release as the cue that it is and start digging!


title: FINE PERFORMANCE and with all the dialogue!

text: "Princess Ida", like "Taming of the Shrew" is a problematic challenge for contemporary companies.  Conventional thinking for decades was that all a strong woman need to bring her inline was a stronger male that would put her in her place.  This is at the core of "Ida" which makes it dated for modern audiences.  You also have to deal with conundrum of this being one of W.S. Gilbert's weakest libretto's yet is one of Arthur Sullivan's most delightful scores.  If all you want to do is hear the music there are more professional recordings available.  However, if you want to hear how to present "Ida" and keep your audience with you, than buy this recording by all means! The Lamplighter's do an excellent job on this recording, which was made during a live performance. The orchestral playing is first rate, the dialogue is included and well done, the choral work is flawless and there isn't a weak link with the principals. For the dyed in the wool Savoyard this is a great addition to your collection.  It's become one of my favorites and is a nice addition to The Collection.


title: FINALLY!

text: I did NOT buy this CD for the score to "The Red Pony". The music has been well documented but it is nicer to have it in it's original form. I love the movie and the score for  "The Heiress" which has not had the same fate as "Red Pony".  The liner notes included with the CD is quite frank in saying that the acetates from which this was mastered were in sad shape and everything has been done to restore them.  That handicap noted it's still nice to have the full score as well as the original opening Copland wrote only to be replaced by the one we know which quotes "Plaisir d'Amour."  Copland seems to have understood the realities of the film world and knew from the gate that Wyler wanted to use the song in the film.  He seems not to have been surprised at the fact that Paramount and/or Wyler fiddled with what he wrote for the opening.


title: HISTORICAL HANSEL

text: This is an historic recording which was in the catalogs for decades.  It first appeared as a two volume 78RPM set on Columbia records as the first of a series of operas recorded in complete form by The Metropolitan Opera; and as far as I know the first opera to be recorded in English in the United States.  When Columbia came out with their then new LP format it was immediately transferred and eventually, finally,  saw light on their budget Odyssey label.  The are certainly many fine editions in the current crop of "Hansel and Gretel" recordings as well as many fine DVD's of the work. This is the recording I grew up with and the fact that it hasn't seen light as a CD release is amazing to me if only for it's historical value.  It's also a damn fine performance!


title: HISTORICAL GOLD

text: This recording was one of the glories of the HMV Electrical Gilbert and Sullivan series started in the 1920's.  The D'Oyly Carte Opera Company was at the height of their London Revival Period and guest conductor Malcolm Sargent had yet to be knighted and was only known as Dr.  As one who was first acquainted with this set when it was only available to collectors in their original 78RPM form it's nice to hear it without having to flip over all those discs!  Many have lamented that they all thought Sir Henry Lytton was told old to record the part of The Lord Chancellor, but George Baker is a great substitute.  It is also nice to be able to compare this recording with the later one he did also for Sir Malcolm Sargent  and HMV in the 1960's.  The rest of the cast is impeccable and contralto Bertha Lewis is in fine form as The Fairy Queen. This is the hardest to find of the Arabesque Gilbert and Sullivan CD's - but it's worth searching out.  As a bonus there are some very early G&S recordings including Richard Temple, who created the part,  doing "A More Humane Mikado"!  What more could a dedicated Savoyard ask for!


title: Lush Baxter Score.

text: This was the first horror movie that I was aware of.  We passed a theater playing it on the way to visit my grandparents.  The image of a the lead female trapped in a coffin struck a real cord in my six year old heart!  Les Baxter's lush score is a real treat.  I would suggest even if you're only slightly interested in this title that you snap it up ASAP.


title: FINALLY!

text: If the early to mid 1960's needed a soundtrack it would be provided by either Neal Hefti, Cy Colman or Henry Mancini or would be a mix of all three.  This score transports me back to the films initial release.  Verna Lisi must have been trotted out on every late night show that was being broadcast at the time and Jack Lemmon was at his height as actor. The age of Political Correctness was still far enough away to make a screenplay by George Axelrod palatable and the film was a huge hit.  Owning the Soundtrack Album and a poster was as close as a kid could get to owning a film during this period. I saw this movie many times and lamented that the music on the record was not the same as the music played in the film.  Close, but no cigar. It's nice to finally have the original mono cues from the actual film AND the stereo album together.  Nice because I FINALLY get to own the actual soundtrack and because hearing the music from the LP makes me 14 again.  It might cost you and arm and a leg to get this CD now that it's out of print.  It is, however, worth every penny you might spend! FYI:  The added soundtrack for "Lord Love a Duck" was, to me, at best, irritating.


I heard about Paine as a kid, but never really read his work until much later in life. His story is almost unbelievable; heroic, inspiring, tragic, and at times gut wrenching. It was around the same time that I read The Age of Reason that I first heard of Ian Ruskin. After seeing him portray Paine at an event in California, he will forever be Paine in my mind. I've listened to this CD, and have shared it with others. To me, this is Paine's voice, and the story he tells is one of the greatest that our country has to share with the world.I love it.

title: Excellent variety, genuine humility, good music

text:
I've collected music for over 25 years and own thousands of titles.  I've heard many "first" albums.  The great thing about this CD is the sincerity of the lyrics as well as the variety of music.

I popped this in my car CD player the day I got it and listened to it twice in row (I hardly ever do that with a new CD).  This CD just "plays" well all the way through.

An excellent CD!

title: Mangle the Tango - a new style for Pam Mark Hall

text: I first encountered Pam Mark Hall in the mid-1970s as a gospel singer and youth-camp song leader.  Her folksy guitar style and gentle sweet voice was an inspiration to everyone that heard her sing.  I still sing some of those songs.  Pam's new "Mangle the Tango" album has a very different style from her early days, with great accompaniment and lyrics that express deep personal meaning. The album gives tribute to our Creator without being religious.  My favorite Mangle the Tango song is "Solitude".


title: "PERFECT"

text: Absolutely beautiful album. Seller was A++ in all areas. Especially having it arrive so quickly. I am a "die-hard collector" of those recording artists that are part of the Command Family. Transferred to compact disc beautifully.

title: Four Stars

text: this is a great CD it arrived in good shape


This CD is everything I love about rock music. The lyrics are poetic and and the beat drives it home. "Wholy Clean" is a beautiful rock ballad about a Vietnam hero, from the perspective of his young nephew. It's hard to get any more raw and pure than that. "Pins" is gorgeous and thoughtful... left me thinking for a long time.  "Love Letter" is devoted and eloquent... with a driving sound to highlight all of life's irony. "Blood" is every son's eulogy to his father. "Circle the Wagons" may be my favorite... literate, articulate, complex and full of momentum. This music is among the best I have heard. Give it a listen.

text: Gottlob Frick could sing anything convincingly. He was a fabulous opera singer, but this version of hunting songs is a welcome change from his repertory and a joy to hear.


title: Marvin Gaye's amazing cotribution to the history of music!

text:
I can't stop playing the CD since I got it!!
Any true disciple of music be it player writer or discerning listener will not be disappointed as this album is so beautifully put together in every department. Of course one of it's outstanding points is the presence of James Jamerson who sets the bass section on fire across side 1!! He has to be heard to be appreciated. Most of The Funk Brothers are on this album, they really shine and they actually get the credits for their contributions for the first time on a Motown album!!
Jamerson lying flat on his back drunk playing his bass parts!! ( as legend has it from a member of The Funk Brothers who was at the recording sessions) Jamerson is out of this world..Bob Babbit has some great bass as well.
Marvin Gaye gels the whole thing together with his amazing vocals and instrumental contributions.
A real legendary recording for the musical community to get into and thoroughly enjoy.

title: A superior old-school reggae record

text: I think the title says it all.  If you like older reggae styles, this is a wonderful recording that you will enjoy.  It can be hard to find, and expensive, but a very listenable groove.


title: Um... who doesn't love some Shy'm....

text: Great album


title: Wonderful collaboration between 2 musical masters!

text: Light, delightful music. Can’t help smiling and tapping toes!


title: Great CD

text: I dont think this CD did not get much airplay beyond Minnesota; I had hear bits and pieces of it over internet radio from the BWCA region. Its very enjoyable, and probably the best CD I have purchased in many years. I suggest anyone who might be interested in buying it, grab it before it disappears.


title: Five Stars

text: amazing album


title: A few of the best jams compiled here and some not-so often published versions ...

text:
A couple sleepers on the compilation album but generally some very piquant numbers.  A few of the best jams compiled here and some not-so often published versions of some classics.  Some really good alternate versions of a couple well-knowns that keep you coming back to it for another listen.  The Madge jam is worth the price of the album!

The DVD doesn't appear to work in America or with some setting in contemporary DVD players and is either import only country-coded.  Not that big of a deal since the documentary can be found on Youtube, but a little disappointing that it simply won't play without software decoding and converting along with saving to another media location.


title: Ware's new Sigh album will make you smile!

text: Leon Ware is an "under cover" genius of smooth, mellow and love making music. He's put out a lot of this mellow music for years on his own and was the musical mastermind behind Marvin Gaye's mindblowing "I Want You" album from the '70's. Leon didn't just rest on his laurels from that groudbreaking album. He has gone on to continue to produce and write hit r n b songs for others throughout his distinguished career. The Sigh album is Leon Ware's own 12th solo release and it is every bit as good as his other solo musical gifts to the world. If you're a fan of soft, smooth and mellow r n b tinged with jazz as a provocative musical backdrop then this album is for you. Although there is maybe one so called misstep on a song or two overall this is a strong album and is a statement from Leon Ware that he's still "got it" as a singer, writer, producer and solo artist!  Cool Sunday, Sigh, Wishful Thinking and Summer Is Her Name are just some of the cuts that you are sure to enjoy if you love mellow-smooth r n b like I do.


title: Good Gospel Music for walking but not what I expected

text: When I purchased this CD I thought it would be gospel songs with Richard Simmons chiming in to offer motivation like on his previous walking cd.  I was disappointed when all I heard was songs from a previous gospel walking CD with a different name which I purchased.  The music is good for walking but not at all what I expected


title: Musical Tour of Italy

text:
Take a trip to Italy by listening to this wonderful collection of Italian classics. The soaring "Nessun Dorma," the passionate "O Sole Mio," the nostalgic "Santa Lucia luntana," the uplifting "Ave Maria" are all here, plus many more.
  With his beautiful tenor voice, Andrea Bocelli is the guide as we traverse the barriers of time and space and are transported to this far away, romantic country.
  This is an hour of escape, of beauty and romance, of traveling the musical landscape of Italy. It is an hour of being exposed to the passion, emotion, and spirit of the Italian people, brought to us by a singer who represents them, but who is also able to cross over to other cultures, other languages, and people of all persuasions, because, as always, he sings from the heart.
