title: Always Love the Live Album. . .

text:
While artists like Bob Marley, Dennis Brown and Peter Tosh had their musical catalogues virtually inundated with live performance albums, the live genre of reggae music has been all but barren. Certain modern artists such as Luciano, Everton Blender and Anthony B have had live albums, however, you would think with the extreme prolificity of some of the top artists, there would be a live album almost every year from most of these acts. The live album in dancehall has NEVER been really examined to see if it might work save for a feeble few attempts and many of the ones which were released received little to no promotion (such as the live albums of such artists as Capleton, Mark Wonder & Prince Theo and Cocoa Tea as well.

Thus, I look forward to virtually each and every live album which may come down the road with a release date of after the year 2000. In 2002, Bushman had his first (and to date only) live album released by well received roots label, King of Kings, and the world became a better place because of it! The show was taped in Toronto's Opera House (where I have been before, and is still open), and Bushman wasn't even the main performer (that distinction belonged to Anthony B) but he nearly stole the show! Checking in at a whopping one hour and thirteen minutes for an opening act, Bushman slowly builds the vibes culminating into an absolutely brilliant performance about midway through this album.

Definitely check the nice story in the liners. The album, compiled and recorded by a bredrin named Hawkes (who also has a radio show in Toronto) was originally going to be from a show involving Anthony B., Norrisman and Bushman opening the set, however, Norrisman didn't show up and Bushman wowed the audience with his Grassroots Band (whom he still performs with to this day and is even more polished with now).

Like many a stage show, this one takes a little while to get going, the first few tracks aren't the top of Bushman's ability, so you notice little things, like the mumbling chorus on Nyah Man Chant (which he still performs well). However, full on near track 4, Grow Yuh Natty, a MASSIVE song. The mumble is replaced with the typically deep, baritone wail that we're used to from the artist, but the vocals are crystal clear over Jammy's legendary Heavenless riddim, and you see the audience finally starting to get into and appreciating the vibes.

Tracks 4~14 basically are wonderful! While I, as a big fan, sat there listening wondering why he didn't perform some of my favorites (and then sat there even longer trying to decipher exactly when this particular show was recorded, versus when my the tunes were recorded), there came a point in those tracks when I just stopped caring! The vibes ultimately culminate on track 13, the should have been a hit (and was to some degree) I Burn. Bushman seems to just get down to making his point on the song and it stands out as the SINGLE best tune performed on the bill. That's no slight at all to the track immediately following, however. Fire Burn (aka Fire Bun a Weak Heart) is a big track and one of my favorites by Bushman during his entire career. Bushman performs the song standard and then leads into covering songs from some of reggae's greatest sons, such as Marley, Brown and Half Pint. Excellent medley!

You should also check Cannabis definitely! The song gets a very very nice reaction from the crowd and it was about this point I start wishing I had been there. Check Bushman losing his cool at the beginning of Man a Lion, recreating the roaring lion sound which appears on the album (and does it again after the wheel up!) great combination there with his backup singers (and they deserve respect, Nikki Burt & Elsa Green), whom throughout the show do a fantastic job, but perhaps no better than on Man a Lion. Check the nice cover Remember de Days, the large She is Gone, and the big finale on Who Send Dem?

Overall, I definitely recommend this one! Although I doubt you might be able to find it (this thing even sales out on the regge market sites), should you find it definitely scoop it up. One of the biggest, yet most  unappreciated talents in all of reggae music is Bushman and he shines with his raw vocals and experience driven lyrics in a live show. Having seen him now several times at some of the bigger cultural shows here in Jamaica, he surely puts on a good show with HUGE vibes, this show was absolutely no different!


title: Very Very Solid. . .

text:
I may at some various points in my life tire of hearing the foot lifting, flag waving vibes of soca music and even the headrocking, booty shaking dancehall vibes. At some point you just need a break from something that relentless. However, 100% of any time you may catch me anywhere, I will always be in the mood for a good roots reggae tune. No matter the artist, no matter the country of origin and no matter the producer, of all my musical interests, the strongest is that straight one drop, I love it!

Enter Bambu Station, one of the finest roots collectives in the entire world. Joining the ranks of the legendary Midnite band, Bambu Station, hailing from the VI has made quite a name for themselves outside of the mainstream of Jamaican reggae making some of the finest and well polished vibes availables anywhere. The group hails from both St Thomas and St Croix which makes available to them some of the finest young talent in all of reggae music.

That serves a great purpose on Talkin' Roots 2 which is essentially a compilation of various artists voicing on different Bambu Station backed riddims. The artists are all from various parts of the Virgin Islands and they are all artists to watch in the future. I love the way the album is set up because, even if you have being paying attention to that vibe growing in the VI this album will introduce you to several new names.

The best song here without a doubt is the well powerful My Powaz by St Thomas native Pressure. Pressure's debut, The Pressure is On was the finest reggae debut album I heard all of 2005 and to see him in such fine form on another release confirms that his label didnt just pick some of his best tracks, but that is the way he makes music , Pressure maybe the main artist to watch on this entire album.

Also check the fine lovers rock tune Never Change My Mind by unknown (to me) Lady Passion from St Croix. The song is so laid back and tamed that it works on so many levels besides the typical vibes on most of these tracks. I'm also quite impressed (even though I was subsequently less impressed by his album) with Ijah Menelik's from Montserrat well powerful Baggawire, the song is a nice introduction to the artist (just avoid his debut album) as he does a fine job.

Also check the Star Lion Family collective, which includes the aforementioned Pressure, and one of the few artists from this project to have released a solo album (2 to date) Niyorah, on Hold the Faith (also check their EP, Brighter Days). I also like Ras Bumpa's well polished vibes on Do Good as well as Danny I going Vaughn Benjamin on his Dem No Tired.

Overall, I feel pride in this release. As a Jamaican native and someone who splits his time between JA and St Maarten, this album makes me proud to be West Indian! There is a ton of fine fine young and established acts emerging, CONSCIOUSLY, from the Caribbean, giving a mighty praise to my generation, yes we do get the point of being conscious and responsible, it is a necessity. But apart from that, Talkin Roots 2 is just a big album! Make no mention that Bambu Station's efforts are top notch, all of these riddims are very well done and very well produced. Definitely gets my seal of approval!

(4.5 Stars)

A quite wonderful surprise I experience when I somewhat randomly and pointlessly searched Jah Mason's name on Amazon to find out that they were now carrying the Unlimited album along with the wicked Never Give Up album (perhaps his greatest effort to date) from 2004. Unlimited is one of the finest albums from this young veteran reggae artist who is perhaps destined to be fully underappreciated and underrated.

Mason probably ranks right next to Junior Kelly in terms of what they are in the music. Despite numerous hits from both, they can't seem to break into the Capleton/Sizzla/Anthony B/Luciano ranks, but both are seemingly qualified as they have the skill definitely. In Mason's specific case, his talent is more of a melodic one which is odd. He can manipulate his harsh sounding voice to seemlessly match the most laid back of one drops. And his experience dictates that as well, a veteran of both JR Records under Junior Reid, and David House, under Capleton (whom he sounds like at times), he has served an 'apprenticeship' matched by very very few of his peers.

The Unlimited album was probably Mason's hardest (at last count he had 6, Unlimited was the 2nd released). It has a predominately dancehall (and slight hip-hoppish) vibe throughout, specifically through the first half. The artist himself is never more solid lyrically as he absolutely locks off the flow on several tunes on Unlimited. Probably the single best tune here is the flawless All I Can See on which the country bwoy Mason reasons "I'm sitting here looking at the trees, I'm look at the birds and the bees and all I can see is LOVE!".

The best of the fine rest consist of the awesome condemnatory Si Dem Move; the wicked title track; big big Rasta tune Vegetable Time; E-Mail. I could go on and on defintely. Lyrically the best tune here is without a doubt No Token. There are no bad tunes and the album ends with 2 impressive combinations with Ian Sweetness and Don Angelo on De Youths Dem Ballin and No Limit respectively. Also check the really smooth How Long, very very impressive.

Overall, that's the story of the Unlimit1ed album, when this one was actually released I would have probably given it a 5 star review. Today, it may lack that dominant one drop that I need on a roots record, but the production is top notch throughout, and it is a straight forward roots project. Mason never steps into slackness. If you're looking for that rare mix of competent, world class roots mixed with dancehall of a similar quality, check Unlimited, its nearly a masterpiece.

title: what year was this released again?

text:
Inspirational Favorites, Vol. 2, 101 Strings Orchestra, Release Date 1997, Madacy: 27 track CD.

When was VOL 3 released with most of the same songs as Vol. 2 ???


title: pig in a poke

text:
Not sure why people list music CD for sale and fail to
identify the Album. No Release date, UPC code, Label
I mean forget the songs... Who buys a CD for the Song titles?


title: Good predecessor

text: This is a good effort from a great effort that is worth purchasing.  You may not be able to find anotherone in hard print like this, but you can contact MPJ about downloading it from a i-tunes eqsue site.  Very solid overall album.  You can definately see where "Throwing Punches in the Dark" came from.  Great musician here.


title: Take a walk on the wild side

text: I discovered this album in my late 20's through a co-worker. He like Reed's chord progressions and fell inn live with the lyrics and stories he told. Vivid descriptions and bent humor with a dash of harsh truths that will transform the listener. My favor track is Perfect Day. There is a line about how his s.o. made him feel like he was someone else, someone good. After twenty years I hear that line and it lifts my soul every time I hear it. Good stuff from a master of vivid song writing and simple singing. So take a walk on the wild side and take a good listen to a master songster.


title: Elvis Where He Began

text: When Elvis sings Spiritual material, there is a transformation in his voice, and in the feelings it triggers.  He becomes a Spiritual being, and he transfers that Spirituality to all who listen closely.  Softness and thoughtfulness are two words that come to mind.  The elevation in consciousness is amazing.


title: PLEASE LIST THE TITLES OF THE SONGS AND THE NAMES OF THE PERFORMERS

text:
I HAVE NO IDEA IF I WOULD ENJOY THIS CD BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT INCLUDED THE NAMES OF THE SONGS AND THE NAMES OF THE SINGERS ON IT.

HELP!!

THIS IS A GENRE THAT APPEALS TO ME BUT I CAN NOT BUY IT UNTIL I KNOW WHAT IS ON THE CD


title: Don't bother with Audio version at  $130+

text:
I thought that it was a mistake since it listed
for $59.99, is eighteen years old, deals with a subject that has not changed in decades and is available in book form for less than two dollars.  At more than twice list price I'll pass on this one and you should too.

Additionally you can get the 2004 revised edition for less than $50 new. Here's the ISBN: -  0976076500


title: Worth every penny!

text: Together CD set subtitled "words and images to inspire and feed your soul" truly lives up to this billing. The music is soothing to the ears and I never tire of viewing the photos and captions which so touchingly reveal what is important in life. No matter which CD you choose to play, within a few seconds, the hectic pace of life and whatever unsettling thoughts you may be having will be diminished.


title: Power Pop Extraordinare!

text: Really learned of The Cowsills from the book Goodnight LA and tracing how Waddy Wachtel got to LA ... then sought out the Family Band 2011 documentary ... then dug into their catalog and ultimately to this incredible record ... power pop with gorgeous harmonies ... not a bad song on the LP .. sorry it took me 20 years to discover this record and this band/family’s story and legacy!

text: 3 Great CDs along with the DVD.  I wish this was more affordable for the John Denver Fans out  there.  I'm willing to sale mine, if interested.  Hope you find a copy.  Mark


title: Winny

text: Here's another example of the sadly over-looked talent that should be outselling Britney Spears, yet somehow isn't. I initially bought this CD due to the strange coincedence that she looks remarkably like someone I went to HS with, in Europe. Worked out fairly well too. This is an excellent cd. Ellie's crafting is poppy, without being overly sweet, and her voice is haunting, and quite beautiful. She covers a range of strange subjects, but mostly it listens like a series of situation portraits. Slice of life, I guess. Love is an occasional subject, as is friendship, displacement and peace. Like the cover looks, it's a collage. Hopefully she'll get some acclaim soon.


title: CD Coming out in APRIL

text: If you go to DanielPowter.com you will see that the CD is available on i-tunes and that is comes out on April 11.  Good music.


title: congratulations to the new #1!! way to go!!

text:
i'm so happy that this song went #1 in billboard. it came out in mid 2005 and went unnoticed in the U.S. but huge in other parts of world.

he wrote such great songs that are hard to find in pop industry these days. i respect him even more when i found out that he has overcome dyslexia (he failed his music theory for this reason) and serious stage fright.

i'm so happy for him that he has got his first #1 and he deserves every single bit of this!


title: Great First CD

text: A great first effort for Daniel Potter.  Great chill music, especially Bad Day, which is one of my favorite songs.  Warning:  Don't listen to this CD unless you want the song Bad Day stuck in your head for a few days.


title: Best CD in years.

text: Someone once said to me all the current bad music is about to turn good again. And you know what? I think Daniel Powter is the one that will start to make everything all better again. Thats all that needs to be said.


title: Magnificent!

text: In few words: this is one of the best hard-rock albums in the Spanish history. Mr. Salvador Dominguez, with a wide experience with groups in England and the US, is one of the best hard-rock guitarists, with similarities to Michael Schenker but with his own style. I recommend both albums recorded with BANZAI and the other two recorded with TARZEN. BANZAI are going to reunite for some concerts in 2011 and think about to record some new songs, stay tuned.


title: PARIS SISTERS - GREATEST HITS & MORE (27 tracks)

text: >Im a fan of the early to mid 60's 'wall of sound' type of music that features girl/group vocalists who harmonize well together, complimenting each note of every song. I also enjoy greatly the type of material the Paris Sisters did, sounding similar to other groups of that era; such as Two of Clubs, Shirelles, The Angels, Ponytails, Leslie Gore and LuLu. I grew up listening to this stuff and still very much like it today. That was a powerful time for a lot of great song writers and performers alike...Sorta the end of 'Retro' and the start of 'Contemporary Pop/Rock' combined. These singers and songs allow for me an audio backdrop for not only hearing but seeing where we were and what we have come to in the here and now. With recordings such as this, no one has to miss nor long for yesterday...It all is still with us today. Great recording!


title: its great

text: the deluxe cd was great the extra songs are worth it the movie was good to the only problem i had with the movie is that between every song there was a Walmart commercial got annoying after awhile


So annointed and a real spirit lifter. If you love Irish pipes and flutes you will love this!

title: A great CD for your stereo

text: Sound is the best using on the shelf stereo, good quality tracks that have a rich sound and strong vocal.


title: Turd is rock solid!!

text: Just picked this up and was pleasantly surprised. Very heavy guitar sound with minimalist lyrics, somewhat like a raspy Iggy Pop as I could easily see Iggy writing or singing some of these tracks. A great Johnny Knoxville lookin' leader with some powerful vocal chords.  Starts right off with "Turdsville USA", a super cruncher about smalltown life. They're all good, not a stale fart in the bunch. My personal favorite is "Riverbreaks" which contains the classic lyric "You'll be the Queen of a six foot hole and Turd will be the King of Rock and Roll". Anthemic, silly, loud? You bet! Beer swillin', ass-kickin'? Oh yeah! Music to headbutt by. Unfortunately, seeing that this is a 1999 release I assume Turd went in the crapper....too bad.

title: Jesus I was Evil

text:
While Darcy Clay's life was short, and his musical output unfortunately small, running to little more than this EP plus a couple of extra songs, he left an indelible footprint on the New Zealand music scene. `Jesus I Was Evil' shocked the country's musicians out of their decade long torpor and proved that even with zero budget, a can-do attitude could still get you noticed.

The song "Jesus I Was Evil" is lo-fi epitomised. Catchier than crabs on the seat in a public toilet, the four track recording is all fuzzy feedback and Garage Rock. Clay played all the instruments himself. The drumming is rudimentary at best, barely managing to keep even 4/4 time. The bass and guitar are drenched in glorious distortion and feedback, and the vocals constantly redline the antiquated recording equipment. That's not to say Clay was shouting. He loved low fidelity recording, and said that over-production often took the "music" out of music.

The four track recording remains obvious throughout the rest of the songs too. "What About It" has a nice Country Rock feel, including a mouth organ refrain. Clay tries his best to sound like a wasted Neil Young singing. The cover of Dolly Parton's "Jolene" epitomises Clay's oddball musical vision. He copies Dolly's accent, completely taking it off, but at the same time is utterly sincere.

Clay was a big Metal fan, but there's absolutely nothing Metal here whatsoever. Imagine Iggy and The Stooges playing Country with a sedated Mike Patton singing, and Wesley Willis on backing vocals and you're somewhere near the mish-mash of styles jammed together into a few short songs.

Clay played only five gigs before taking his own life in 1998, shortly before he was due to play an anti-suicide concert, an irony which was perhaps deliberate. His DIY ethos and chaotic music lives on in only about half a dozen songs, but his attitude made the mainstream sit up and take notice, and is an inspiration still to musicians throughout New Zealand.


title: My Worst Enemy

text:
Koreans strive to be the best they can in everything they do, and often feel something produced in Korea might not be up to the standard of other countries. It has meant Korean music has made little impact on the world past pop weirdos The The. If you mention the name Crash to even the most devoted of metal fans, few will know what you are talking about, which is a shame.
Crash are the out and out leaders of Korean metal. Forming back in the late 1980s, it took until 1993 for this album to hit the shelves. And what an album it is! Imaginative, cutting death/thrash in the Kreator (the album title is a bit of a clue) and early 1990s Sepultura mould. Anyone managing to stumble across this will discover thrashing riffs by the truckload, a rock solid rhythm section, and even blast beats.
The song writing is excellent. Crash's single, and still their signature tune, "My Worst Enemy" is an excellent demonstration of what the band is all about- big riffs, unrelenting power, anger, aggression, and excellent musicianship. Yes, I know I've just used the word "excellent" three times in two sentences, but this band justifies such praise. There are two versions of "My Worst Enemy", sung in English and Korean, with the Korean version coming across the more convincing of the two.
In places, the sound is perfect Sepultura, and could easily have been lifted off "Beneath The Remains". An Heung Chan's throaty roar matches Max, except with a slightly different accent, and he seems to cope with English better. An's bellowed version of "Smoke On The Water" is more than passable. Guitarist Yoon Doo Byong also throws an original solo into the old metal standard.
By 1993, thrash was on the outer, which may explain why this never managed a wide release outside Korea. Perhaps if it had, the Korean metal scene would have earned the same respect as scenes like those in Brazil and Poland. When you look back at some of the utter crap signed up by record companies in search of the next Metallica or Sepultura in the late 1980s and early 1990s, it seems incredible a band such as this could have been missed. While a little behind the times, Crash deserve more attention internationally than they have received.


title: Thrash til Death

text:
It's surprising what bargain bins will turn up sometimes. Take this little gem for example. While not a sparkling missing diamond from the crown jewels of thrash or anything, it's a metal curio, giving a hint of what metal was like in a different time. Think back before the dreadlocked, baggy trousered whinery of nu-metal, back before the plaid clad slacker grunge revolution, back to a time when poodle perms and spandex were king. In garages and toilet-sized venues around the world, bands like Napalm were threatening bloody revolt due to their disgust at the glam world. Some bands made it, like Metallica and Slayer. Others didn't, like Napalm and, well, anyone remembering the time could probably place hundreds of band names beside them.
So what did they sound like? Well, in a word, thrash. Not particularly well executed or ground breaking thrash, but still the band flew the flag for the music they loved. There are a lot of mid to late 80s thrash reference points here. Metallica is the obvious, but the bass and vocals hint at the likes of Nuclear Assault and sometimes D.R.I., and the riffing has definite hints of Sacred Reich and Death Angel. It's great stuff for mindless headbanging while wasting a chilly afternoon, but also reinforces a few of the "dimwit metalhead" stereotypes some people hold prejudices against. Song titles like "Combat Zone", Gag Of Steel" and "Mind Melt" don't exactly inspire thoughts of reasoned intellectual debate or philosophical discussion. Then again, these guys weren't trying to be Bob Dylan or Tool.
The Edward J. Repka illustrated cover looks the part of the typical thrash album, as the artist was also responsible for covers for Death, Nuclear Assault, Atheist, and even Megadeth. Thank you lists in the liner notes of old thrash albums were always a bit of a laugh to read. Here, Napalm have thanked the dozens of other bands they played and worked with, including leading lights like Kreator, COC, Death and Possessed. Then there were the others, probably in the same league as Napalm themselves, like Teste Fungus, Bong Water and In Your Face. Further down, they thank their favourite wrestlers (The Road Warriors, The Legion Of Doom), movies (H.P. Lovecraft's Reanimator, Evil Dead Parts I and II) and even porn stars (Traci Lords, Missy Hyatt, Justine the Girl Next Door 1987). Next came thanks to a lot of individual people they had worked with, and finally thanks to: "...death metal weenies everywhere, all our friends we didn't thank, thanks, to our fans bang till ya bleed, f**king thrash..." This fan will be thrashing till he bleeds for many years to come, simply for the fact this album is a reminder of how straightforward and fun things used to be.

text: Carrie underwood (winner of American Idol 2005) sang this song in the finals, which i think she won with,song first sung by guy sebastian winner of AI austraila, he sings it better, but she did it justice! shame its not on her album.


title: Hot!!!

text: The song is hot. The video is hot, and Christina is hot. What more could you ask for!


title: Classic Gem Rediscovered

text: There's little to equal the lyrics of Bernie Taupin and the phrasings of Sir Elton. After the brilliance of 'Tumbleweed' and the lingering thunder of 'Madman', comes 'Honky Chateau', a well conceived and beautifully executed performance. Overall I feel the album is less as a whole and best enjoyed as a sum of it's parts.  Highly Recommended. The CD remastering is superb. (Required listening: "Amy" and "Mona Lisas")


title: Completes my collection

text: This is the CD version of the originally-MP3-download-only EP that the Robbers released before their second full-length. The first 2 songs, The Fatalist and Married Young, are on that second full-length, Grand Animals. The last 2 songs, Major Minor and Monkberry Moon Delight, are only on this EP. Those songs are so much fun. Stomping piano, silly lyrics that Ben sings with adandon, and just an all-around good time. Like an old-time saloon.


title: And this is out of print, because...?

text:
I suppose it's because they never had commercial success, but that doesn't take away from the fact that they released some pretty good albums. This one SHOULD be considered a classic, but being that few have seem to have ever heard it, that's become a bit impossible... Luckily, [[ASIN:B000EMSU1U Make Yourself a Happening Machine: A Collection]] was released in 2006, a compilation of 30 Plasticland tracks. Even if you own this, don't let that stop you from buying 'Wonder Wonderful Wonderland', or the self-entitled studio album [[ASIN:B000A35ESA Plasticland]], if you can locate either of them. 'Make Yourself a Happening Machine' leaves off some good songs from both of the aforementioned albums; "Don't Let it All Pass By" and "No Shine For the Shoes" from 'Wonder Wonderful Wonderland' and "Alexander" from 'Plasticland' are all strangely absent, though basically everything else noteworthy is there.

 I was genuinely surprised when I found out (recently!) that Plasticland were American, not British. Their sound carries with it such a familiarity of 60's British psychedelic music and 80's modernity that I was almost certain that they were from the UK! The lyrics are vivid, often nonsensical and poetic in nature, and the music as swirling and colorful as the images present on their album covers. Should you come across 'Wonder Wonderful Wonderland', don't let it pass you by!


title: French anarcho-punk

text:
Had enough of punk bands singing about Maggie Thatcher and Tony Blair?... Why not listen to some punk bands singing about Jacques Chirac instead?

This is LSM's first album and it's already full of rough energy. It's not quite as musical as the stuff they did latter on (see "No Problemo"). This CD is quite underground and should be given a listen.

"Bienvenue" means "Welcome"... Welcome to this country were sharing is abolished.

title: Magnificent performance

text: The sound was much more excellant than the YouTube pieces, even the HD ones.  Does not have the 5.1 DTS audio track but ran it through my Carver Hologram circuit which gave the same effect.  Very enjoyable to watch them perform on the big screen & I've heard they're making a U.S. tour this year.  Only 5 of the 15 songs are in English but all the numbers were very nice.  This was the best price I found.


title: An elegant lady

text:
Another wonderful recording and collection of music from this talented lady.  The songs are great and the pictures glowing - life, marriage and motherhood have been good to her, it appears as she radiates.  [...]

I'd classify it as easy listening, with great orchestration and arrangements.  Very nice to relax to and enjoy.

I highly recommend it, the latest gift from the voice of Miss Saigon, Mulan & Mulan II.  I don't think you'll be disappointed.

title: Solid album from Sean Kingston

text: This was a pretty decent album. There wasn't very much difference in Sean Kingston's formula with this album, from his previous ones. He has really good uptempo dance tracks, mid tempo grooves and smooth ballads. The lead single "Beat It" with Chris Browm and Wiz Khalifa is one of many good collaborations with featured artists like T.I., Busta Rhymes, Wale and 2 Chainz. If you're a Sean Kingston fan this won't disappoint. If you're not, it still a decent pick up. Nothing super stellar but nothing dreadful either. Reminds me of a younger Akon. This album probably wasn't promoted enough to gain enough attention.


title: Decent soundtrack when Soundtracks were the shhhhhhh!

text: This was a decent soundtrack right before the surge of great soundtracks started to be the standard in the late 80s and early 90s urban films. the soundtrack delivers the party heavy and playful nature of the film itself. The Kid and Play battle rap is a good one. LL Cool J delivers To Da Break of Dawn which is a classic diss record of MC Hammer, Ice T & Kool Moe Dee.  a good soundtrack to a funny movie!


title: Overly Dedicated is overly awesome

text: A great listen and addition for any Kendrick Lamar fan, west coast fan and hip-hop fan! It has mixtape quality with a full album mood.


title: TDE!

text: Ab-Soul, Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q, Jay Rock, BJ the Chicago Kid and the TDE movement are the next chapter of hip-hop music dominance. They are on the rise and this is Schoolboy Q's great contribution to that movement. Keep your eyes out for these dudes in the next few years, they could be really major.

title: Jhene is ridiculously awesome!

text: This was an awesome collection of Jhene aiko songs! You can download most of them but some of them I had never heard before. She still delivers her soulfulness over airy tracks and then there are actually some very upbeat, uptempo songs that will rock you head too. "2 Seconds", "For My Brother", "Bed Peace" will probably be the most familiar to anyone that has followed Jhene. songs like "In Love We Trust", "I'd Rather Be" and "Burning Man" should have been additions to her Sailing Souls mixtape or her Sail Out EP! Either way I really enjoyed this and it should be a no-brainer for Jhene fans.


title: Section.80

text: This is a purchase if you are a Kendrick Lamar fan. He has a great lyrical and storytelling ability whic is something that is lacking in current artists.


title: VERY GOOD CD

text: I REALY LIKE THE CD.


title: Great Piece glad to have it

text: Very happy about this set


title: Peace Up A-Town Down

text: I know probably most of y'all never heard of this but this is T.I. and Young Jeezy underground CD and it's good even though most of the song is on their album but there is remixes and unreleased tracks. I loved this mixtape the best was Go Crazy (Remix) and Welcome To Atlanta 2005. Go to your sources and get this now!


title: Guru & Preem Strike Back w/ a Vegence 4.5 Stars

text: The Ownerz is definitely is the most remarkable album released this year next to Little Brother's "The Listening". Guru and Primo's chemistry is by far unmatched in hip hop. "The Ownerz" is definitely in my opinion Gang Starr's most hardcore/street album that they've ever dropped. There isn't any skippable tracks here either. The beats are traditional Primo craft assisted with Guru's suave monotone precise delivery once again. "The Ownerz" sort of presents itself as a sequel to the classic "Moment of Truth". However, Moment of Truth has a slight edge over The Ownerz. And the reason for that is that Moment of Truth offers a more down to earth, sensitive, and personal side of Guru, who was experiencing a large number of issues during the recording of that album. Due to that, Moment of Truth just offered more songs with concepts and themes. That's why I couldn't rate it as a 5. Nonetheless, The Ownerz is still a solid and superior album that shines above practically all other co-existing albums. Gangstarr's goal on this mission was to revive the sound of authentic New York Diggin in The Crates Style hip hop, which is almost extinct amongst most New York mc's and producers today. Let's face it NYC's mainstream rap acts today borrow too many styles from other regions and as a result diminish their identity. Gangstarr rectifies real hip hop this time, and for any real hip head out there you just might shed a tear, because this is just too good to be true. From the opening track "Put Up or Shut Up", "Sabotage", "Deadly Habitz",  to "Riot Act" we have pure Guru and Priemier in rare form. Another standout is the classic "We Got Gunz" feat. MOP, and Fat Joe, who goes for the jugular, returning to his D.I.T.C. roots. There was only one track that should have been left out the skit "Heimiez" or whatever, was just flat out corny. I think maybe one additional track feat. Nas and Guru rhyming about our youth, future, and war would have been the perfect climax for this album. Nobody's perfect but this album is a must have. Go cop this along with all of the other 6 Gang Starr albums. Pay Homage to Hip-Hop's most consistent group of all time.


title: Aussie Hip Hop

text:
Don't let the fact Figg comes from Bankstown, not Marcy Projects, throw you, this is solid.  I'm a huge rap fan, and usually I don't listen to Aussie Hip Hop but this is a quality release.

The first single, 'I Gotta Know', hits up a catchy hook, a solid guest performance, and lyrics that are both serious and yet funny, in an Eminem way.  That is why Figg has been compared to him on so many occasions in Australia.

The second single, 'My Oh My' is probably the best track on the cd.  It's pure radio play, and Figg talks about that fact during the song.

The third single (will be released soon), 'Fairytale Master', showcases his ability to sound like Eminem, and make fun of life. He raps about twisted fairytales over a complex beat, it's great radio music.

Overall, this is a great release.  The standout is 'Outspoken Outcast', which is a battle track with a twist.  It is set up like a fresstyle battle, with both artists (Figgkidd and Quane) each dropping alternate verses getting at each other.  It's 8 minutes of beef, with both sides played out on the same track.  Quality.

Buy this album, it's solid.


title: Delightful Collection of Ragtime Jewels

text:
This is a must-have, can't miss collection of 22 melodic ragtime classics. Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag is instantly recognizable and flawlessly performed by Virginia. Others songs, though not so familiar, will undoubtedly find the listener pleased with each. Virginia is joined by her father Trebor Tichenor for several duets to good effect. This fine collection of songs from the days of the penny arcade and the first horseless carriages will entertain the listener in fine fashion. Whether as a gift for oneself or to a favorite friend, all those who appreciate Ragtime piano will not want to be without this beautiful collection of parlor music. Pleasant and relaxing times are ever guaranteed with this album as your companion. Why settle for player-piano renditions when the master's hands so skillfully provide these auditory masterpieces for your enjoyment again and again?

P.S. Cover art is produced by Mr. F.C. Ware, the famous Chicago Illinois artist, who creates a great period look of the late 1800's to early 1900's in this work.


title: Better than expected

text: I am a relatively new rap listener, only been listenin for 2 or 3 years and i am not exactly sure why people seem to hate him or what he has done in the past. I like everybody else expected it not to work out with Mase and G-unit however a solid mixtape and i would recommend it to a Mase fan. Or any new listeners to rap to not get involved in the G-Unit Vs. Game beef and develop their own taste and listen to both camps and choose which you prefer.


title: great album

text: Killah Priest is One of the best MCs of all time that's really all you need to know buy the album you won't be disappointed.


title: Thanks.

text: Nice product.


Joyce Jones, internationally acclaimed concert organist and newly retired Professor of Organ at Baylor University, Waco, Texas has compled an outstanding collection and made a companion recording. This collection had a myriad of uses for the organist. The music ranges from very easy to difficult. It is well edited by Dr . Jones and beautifully engraved by Word Publishers. This collection would be a welcome addition yo the library of any organist .

text: Great to sing along with!


title: A mixtape beter than most emcee's albums?

text:
Joe Budden is one of the most underrated emcees in the game. Not only by the hip-hop community, but also his own record label. Def Jam has treated Budden like table scraps since Hova stepped up to presidency. I'm really confused what Hov's thinking; he'd rather put out albums like Rick Rosses Port Of Miami, than put out Budden's long-awaited sophomore effort, The Growth. Perhaps Rick Rosses tales of "hustlin'" are more marketable at the moment, but you're Def Jam, for Christ's sake; you're supposed to make the trends, not follow them. If Def Jam were to market Joe Budden for his lyricism, then maybe, just maybe, being an intelligent emcee would be trendy, and mainstream hip-hop wouldn't be in the shallow state it is today; but we can't have that happen, can we?

With that rant out of the way, Joe Budden is clearly just as fed up with Def Jam and the rest of commercial hip-hop as the majority of us. With Mood Muzik 2, Joe Budden manages to put together one of the tightest releases of 2005 AND 2006 with a mixtape. While most mixtapes consist of wack freestyles, jacked beats, and annoying DJ shoutouts(Whoo Kid, anyone?), Mood Muzik 2 plays itself out as an actual album. There are shoutouts in the intro to each song, but they aren't hardly worth complaining about; especially when the average track lasts five minutes on this album, with no hooks nor choruses.

There are three solo cuts that go past the six minute mark, and those are definitely three of the highlights; the Scott Storch(yes, on a mixtape) produced Three Sides To A Story, the crossover worthy If I Die Tomorrow, and the classic Dumb Out. Each of these three tracks showcase Joe's honesty to an excellent degree; Joe reflects on his life in If I Die Tomorrow, intricately tells a story that'd make Slick Rick blush on Three Sides To A Story, and exposes his disapproval of hip-hop's current state in Dumb Out. With three classic tracks on a mixtape, that alone would have this deserving of five stars; yet, Joe doesn't stop there.

Other standouts include 40 Licks, Are You In That Mood Yet?, Get It Poppin', 6 Minutes of Death, Stained, and So Serious - however, this entire mixtape is streaming with gems from the moment you press play, until the moment the introspective Stained closes it. This is better than Budden's self-titled debut, this is better than any mixtape I've listened to, and this is better than most emcee's albums - a must-have for any true hip-hop head.


title: Renegade fighter ~ Zed

text: When I first heard this song, I was less than impressed (too repetitive), but all (well, almost all - NOT POWDERFINGER!) music sorta seems to grow on me, so I got to like it... Living in Australia I heard it ages after the Kiwi did, when one of my friends went to New Zealand on "Band Camp" she was introduced to it by her NZ billets, and thought it was cool, bought back a single and introduced it to US.  Now I love this song, but still haven't bought my own cd yet, maybe tomorrow, eh?


title: Five Stars

text: Great response time. Loved this book


title: Five Stars

text: Came in good condition,sounds great


title: Poor audio recording.

text: Just don't buy this cd if you please.  Terrible live audio recording.  It is garbage I dare to say...


title: Simply good!

text: I remember this album taking a few time to listen to to really catch on with me. The tracks are pretty simple--not over produced. There are not a lot of musical instruments in the back ground. I found this to be quite refreshing even today. The tunes became great to listen to, and are great to sing along with. Nice!


title: Beware...album covers say "stereo" but these songs are mono

text: I don't own this two-fer cd but I did give it a listen at a local used cd store and I listened to a bit of each track and they're mono, not stereo. This is in spite of the fact that the miniature album covers on the front say "stereo".


title: Anime Fans Would Love This One

text: I was a Fuzzbox fan back when "We've Got a Fuzzbox..." came out in '86 (whoo!  has it been that long?), so this came as a surprise to me four years later that an all-girl lo-fi punk band made their second album a  shimmering, slick-produced dance-rock confection.  It took me another year  to realize that this album is, in fact, a brilliant attempt at the music  you hear in Japanese animation (anime), intentional or not.  There are a  lot of great tracks on here (Fast Forward Futurama, Versatile for Discos  and Parties), an interesting cover (Yoko Ono's 'Walking on Thin Ice') and  an homage to the old animatronic classic 'Thunderbirds' (International  Rescue).  The only dud on here is a forced 'Irish Bride'.  Highly  suggested.


title: The Next Smiths?  Let's Hope So

text: This has made it on to my top CDs of 1998.  It's an excellent alterna-pop album, reminiscent of the Smiths in music, Chrissie Hynde/Primitives in vocals, and Morrissey in lyrics.  Also contains one of the best one-line  descriptions of modern rock in the late 90s--"It's a karaoke climate  and we all sing the same ****ing song."  'I Got the Wherewithal' was  recently released as an EP in the States (backed with a few b-sides from  British singles, including an acoustic "A Pessimist Is Never  Disappointed" sung in French), but it pales in comparison to this  wonderful import.  Highly suggested.  Let's hope Mercury releases this CD  stateside soon.


title: Five Stars

text: Excellent Album


title: A fascinating recording........

text: I can only hope this recording gets some well-deserved recognition.  Bravo to Fabian Almazan's compositional creativity as well as the entire group's exceptional musicianship.  This is just one of those rare albums that defies easy classification.  It's achingly beautiful.......that's all I can say.


title: Little known trio surprised me.......

text: Too bad this trio isn't better known in the U.S. Hopefully they may be in the near future. All I can say is that this is not my usual jazz fare, but that's what's so surprising about it.  The musicianship is excellent, from percussion/beat driven raucousness to more introspective 'cool-down' passages. Mega-watts of joyful energy !


title: Love. It

text: I. Love. It. It came with someone's DNA on it.... I wonder... Cuz it was completely sealed.... Anyway. It so awesome. Full of awesomeness. Yeayyyyyyyy im so happy. Great stuff.

title: The lyrics are awesome!

text:
I love the video to this song with the BEAUTIFUL girl singing with the boy on the beach. The lyrics are amazing, particularly: "when i look into your eyes...", "if only you were here tonight, i could be your one and only, baby please just do come over, i don't know how to live without your love, i dunno how to change this feeling, you're the only one within my heart"

Beatiful! The melody is gorgeous too!


title: Dotyanis' is Dima Bilan's Best Album To-Date

text: Dima Bilan is one of the best Russian vocalists out there. I think Dotynis' is his best album to-date and I am thrilled to have it in my collection along with all his previously released albums minus the greatest hits one. You will really enjoy this album and will want to play it over and over again. Every song will get stuck in your head and you will keep singing it over and over.


title: A must have album!

text:
Sybreed is one of my favorite band. I found in them many elements that i search when looking to a strong outfit. Sybreed is groovy, catchy, technical, great composers, fun and original.

For me God is an Automaton is a great album, but not their best work to date. The reason why is because their is songs on it that for me lack greatness and are too average. Songs that I highlight are: 1) Red Nova Ignition for it's structure, various tempo, it's deathmetal feel. 2) Into the Blackest Light for it's heavyness and blackmetal feel. 3) Hightech Vs. Lowlife because it's different from their catalog. 4) No Wisdom Brings Solace for it's catchy chorus. The other songs lack originality, fun and catchyness. The Line of Least Resistance is good but the chorus don't fit that much in the song even in the album. Destruction and Bliss have potential, start really well but got too long and boring from the middle. Posthuman Manifesto, Downfall inc. and A Radiant Daybreak are just ok.

Overall, Ben the signer is solid and add some black/death feel to it's growls that bring something new on this record. The production is good, but maybe with a little to much bass in the mix. Use of death/black vibes are welcome. On the other side, they could have use more variety in the guitar tone. Guitar riffs are not that much addictive or groovy as it were on their past releases (aka. Slave Desing). The album is too homogenous. But, hey! It's still good material from one of my fav band. I just hope that on teir next record they will create a masterpiece with just highlights tunes that will surprise me by bringing more new elements on the table without compromise the Sybreed recipe.


title: Get ready for something GREAT!

text: 'The Change' is a mix of pop, soul, R&B, and rock that is a great way for you to get a taste of Zein's music -- fun, honest, funky, and beautiful. Zein's soulful voice fits perfectly with the material she's created..whether it is on moving R&B ballads like "Again" and "The Change", or on more funky songs like "Good Hurt". "Wasn't 4 U" and "Behind Closed Doors" are also incredibly R&B and soul-influenced but with a much more rock vibe. The EP's title track is a ballad of desperate love and questioning why a lover isn't the same person that they used to be. Overall, 'The Change' is a great EP and a great start on Ms. Simone's budding music career.


title: Fantastic

I lighted on this while reading up on Phil Ochs as I played and revelled in Pleasures of The Harbour. See the wikipediaa rticle about him for more info on this concert. What an amazing time-piece. 1970. Live Joni Mitchell road testing songs from Blue pre its release. Live James Taylor from the Fire and Rain Sweet Baby James days and Phil Ochs on form as usual. An inspirational booklet too. As another reviewer said, you can buy this new from Greenpeace (Maplecore) in Canada at very little cost. They sent my copy to the Antipodes and it arrived within 10 days. Pristine!

Highly recommend.


title: Don't waste time reading my review, just buy this album!

text: I cannot recommend this album enough.  Kevin Max has one of the greatest voices of all time and his takes on these classic songs are absolutely phenomenal.  He reinvents the songs stylistically, yet his amazing voice helps them retain their classic nature.  These songs are romantic, they're heartbreaking, and they are haunting.  You will not be disappointed with this album.


The lovely piano opens this German-but-American-sounding band's sophomore album. It continues from there with great tracks and an emotional effort from vocalist Konstantin.

Rise & Fall is more cohesive & commercial than Stanfour's debut album, Wild Life. Lead single, Wishing You Well, is a great opener. Life Without You, Say You Care, & Take Me Or Leave Me serve as the highlight ballads. This is not short of upbeat songs as Face To Face, in the middle of the album, is one of their finest. There are occassional drops & rises to the volume of the album, akin to the title.

This band needs more exposure & more listeners. Hurray to good music!


title: Broken Hearted Girl

text: This CD Single comes with two tracks, "Broken-Hearted Girl" & "Broken-Hearted Girl" (Catalyst Remix). The album version is pretty good, but the Catalyst remix is amazing. While I don't think the $9.49 price tag is worth it for a two track single, I recommend both of these versions of the song. (You can find the remix on "Above & Beyonce: Video Collection & Dance Mixes").


title: Britney Spears “Circus”

text: This is my favorite cd of Britney’s!! I purchased this cd right away when it came out in 2008, but now that it’s 2021, I’ve since lost the jewel case and the cd is horrifically scratched and won’t play a number of the songs. However, with all of that being said, I recently just re-purchased Circus and I’m absolutely thrilled to have the cd back in brand-new, pristine condition!!! I bought the Deluxe Edition in “New” quality, and it’s truly new because it’s still in its shrink wrap.. like I just got it from the store! ..which essentially I did. The deluxe album comes with 2 bonus tracks, a 2-sided full color poster, and a DVD capturing moments from Britney’s “Circus” era! I’m SO excited to have this, I don’t want to open it up! I’m not sure if I’m allowed to add this in there, but I’m going to! #FreeBritney


She sounds like a baby learning to speak.  I should get my own recording contract based on this horrible tune.

I have met and worked under this exceptional Man of God, Jonathan Nelson, at Empowerment Temple in Baltimore,MD. This CD is a blessing!  Each track contains a powerful praise and tesitimony for this day in age. I know he is one of God's Annoited and expect big things from him. If you haven't heard, "Healed", which Donald Lawerence now has on his latest cd, then get both!  "Up, Up, and Away" will forever be redefined on a new level. (Sorry Superman, rest in peace!) I can't tell you how good this cd is, you have to listen for yourself. Once you hear it, you will be blessed by it.

Norris Smith


title: Hidden musical gems

text: The album starts off with some very bright, engaging "pop" music which can sound a little silly but is rather fun to listen to. Some more traditional music also appears and these tracks are also good or at least interesting. Tracks 10 and 11 featuring Mlimani Park Orchestra and Juwata Jazz Band are real gems in my mind. The first is very melodious, well orchestrated and with soothing vocals. The second has similar qualities and although it begins slowly, it ends with a flourish. One can say that these songs are simply musical. They are pure music. Whatever your musical inclinations, give these two songs a few listens.

title: THE FUTURE IS HERE...

text: I received the latest coldrain record "Through Clarity" on July 4, 2012 and needed to marinate in the content for a bit before I gave it a fair review.  In a word....AWESOME!!  Coldrain is one of the few post hardcore bands that continues to release STELLAR records, year after year.  This record is no exception.  The CD opens with "No Escape," the first unofficial video single from the record.  Great vocals and insane guitar riffs.  As with ALL coldrain tracks, "No Escape" is filled with melodic vocals and perfectly placed screams.  "Persona" is, for lack of a better description, classic coldrain...solid and true to their sound.  "The Future" is my favorite track on the record.  GREAT powerful vocals, insane guitar work, intense time changes and spectacular stick work, and of course a lyrical masterpiece. "Six Feet Under" is another GREAT track.  This track is the first official video release from the band and this track can be described exactly as "The Future" was described...INSANE!! "Never Look Away" is the fifth track, and is solid from start to finish.  The record closes with the fastest paced track "Inside Of Me" which was my least favorite from this record.  This track was high tempo and laced with tons of screams and aggression.  If coldrain is set on releasing mini CDs every six to twelve months, I am so STOKED if they sound as GREAT as this record.  It seems to be the "new" trend among bands signed to the VAP label. It reminds me of the "Nothing Lasts Forever" mini release in 2010.  Coldrain is definitely a band worth adding to any GREAT music library.


title: A rare treat

text:
I am amazed that this is even still available. This is a benefit CD put out by Rescue Records that includes a concert at Tomfest 1996. It was for the Rock for Life, an anti-abortion group. On the CD, it includes such groups as P.O.D., Sometime Sunday, Soulfood 76, No Innocent Victim, and others.

I enjoyed it very much, and I know fans, especially P.O.D. fans, will want to get their hands on this CD. If you love live performances, hard rock, and a positive message, you'll simply love it.

title: I'm very happy with this album

text: If you're ordering this in June 2017 or later: this is NOT the 1st press edition, so don't expect an additional mini photocard. Overall, I'm very happy with this album. The one I received had a few dents on corners, but nothing too bad for me to fuss about. The photobook and polaroid are gorgeous and I'm happy with the poster. However, I didn't receive any extra photocards from kpop market.


title: Hard To Find

text: GREAT Album. Very very hard to find. Got mine when I was working in a music store when it came out. Luckily, I still have it.


title: Some of the worst rhymes in musical theatre.

text:
I was really disappointed at this. Reviews stated these lyrics are incredibly clever. They are not. Some of the melodies are really quirky and exciting, but words supposed to rhyme but don't are almost scarcer than words that actually rhyme.

Listening to much of this cast recording is like listening to someone singing flat. It's almost correct - but it's only almost.


title: welcome to the game

text: This is a standout EP, and I'm surprised I'd never heard of this band before. I'm sure I'll be hearing a lot more. Definitely beatles influenced (awesome) with essences of shins, arcade fire, and others. Going to see them at mercury lounge!


title: Classic compilation

text: This is a classic album from the 70's  themes like : "One for you one for me" , and  "Bandidio"  are oustanding contributions for the Disco era by these two  Italians brothers.


title: interesting reworkings, but no single mix with Monie Love rap

text: I came across this CD in a used CD store and snapped it up without hearing any of the mixes before.  I knew there was a single version with rap by Monie Love I wanted to get my hands on.  Sadly this version is not avaialble on this 4 CD.  Track 1- Waddel 7" is a more laid back groove than the album version.  Decent listen, but sounds like a muzak version almost.  Tracks 2-4 are all very similar (70s Flange Mix, Logic Remix, Ambiente Mix) with a deeper groove to them without actually speeding up the tempo of the song.  It works, but borders on repetition at parts.  Small differences exist between the 3 mixes (overdubs, percussion layering, use of vocoder) but overall it feels like this CD has 2 unique versions of the song.  The omission of the Movie Love single mix keeps this from being a 4 star CD.


title: Very first

text: One of the best Shazza albums!! Including the smash hit "CZEGO CHCESZ? (WHY DO YOU CALL NOW)" and a lot of hits in Spie.


title: love mysterious, Rogers Kid

text: "My Cousin Rachel" is an absorbing intrigue of love , hate, jealousy and psychotic obsessions. Find a DVD!!!!!!!!!!! or a Viedo as soon as possible. Richard Burton is young and in love for the first time with Olivia de havilland. Both performances are rich and filled with so many nuances of feeling. Somebody please find the moved!  DVD!!!!!!!

title: Il Grande Tiziano ha tornato

text: After a 3 year stint of silence, Tiziano has returned! His first 2 cd's are great and he really shows his range and skills on both. Stop!Dimentica is a different sound for Tiziano, and has hints of 80's pop to it (with the synthesizing, etc.). It's still a very catchy and fun song though. The Italian versions are much better than either spanish or french, even if you don't speak it. Tiziano is one of the best contemporary Italian singers!


title: Great album. Every song is great

text: Great album.  Every song is great.


title: DVD No Good

text: I have dozens of music DVDs and this is the only one where the mouth is not in sync with the sound. It's so annoying to watch-- and watching is what a DVD is all about-- and I've only watched it once.  Every song was like that except for one.I am so disappointed!

title: Such beautiful music

text: My mother owned the cd. But I wanted a copy for my own. It's very beautiful soaking music and just as calming. I highly recommend it. Also, the pictures inside the cover are wonderful too.


title: Wife really likes it.

text: Purchased as a "little something" for the wife.  She has commented on numerous occasions how much she really likes it.


title: A masterpiece from punk legend Bob Mould.

text: A culmination of over a decade of punk genious, refined into cutting edge hard driving guitar pop.  An instant classic and must have for any rock appreciating fan's library.


title: Thank you

text: Thanks for the quick shipment, got it saturday, love the cd, and I recieved it at the right time before christmas


title: A FINE PLACE TO FIND CLARA WARD

text:
I found this LP in the late 80s, at an Oklahoma thrift shop, no less. I'd not heard of it before, although a friend of mine from Atlanta told me that he remembers seeing the airing on TV when he was a child. When I listened to it, and heard the Clara Ward (my great inspiration to play and sing gospel) and the Ward Gospel Singers do "Swing Low, Chariot," I realized the Flip Wilson clip on which they swung "low for Brother Hayes" was taken from this recording. It was recorded at ORU, and the description should reference Richard "Roberts" (son of Oral Roberts), not "Rogers."

You will not find a more exquisite recording quality of any of the performers as found on this LP. I have purchased a second copy for good measure, and if you don't get this one, I probably will!


title: Not Quite Del Amitri, But Not Supposed To Be

text: A side project from the lead singer of Del Amitri, this is a sort-of concept album, with each member taking a stage name and providing a fake history. The music itself sometimes sounds just like the Dels, but mostly sounds different: a little more brit-pop, a bit more psychadelic. Some of the songs are not great, but there are some gems on there, like "Gilbert O'Sullivan" or "Bimbo in a Limo".


title: Tracking Issue

text:
Let me first point out that this is a beautiful score composed by James Horner for the film Cocoon.  It’s high-spirited and uplifting, reminiscent of his work on Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan.

I bought the CD soundtrack from Intrada back in May and noticed there was a music sequencing issue starting with Track 11.  The ‘Theme From Cocoon’, AKA the End Title Theme, was placed there instead of ‘Rose’s Death’.  The good news is that all the music from the soundtrack is still on the CD.  However, due to this error, Tracks 11 to 18 are not aligned with what’s on the list.

Intrada informed me they are aware of the flaw and they won’t be sending out anymore copies of Cocoon until this problem is fixed.

Then I recently noticed that Amazon was selling the CD soundtrack to Cocoon.  I took a chance and bought one.  Unfortunately, when I listened to it, the same sequencing issue exists, so I returned it.  I am hopeful that there will be a corrected CD for Cocoon coming real soon.

5 stars for the music, but giving 3 stars only due to the tracking issue.

(11/22/21 UPDATE:  Intrada has corrected the sequencing problem and was gracious enough to send me a replacement disc.)

title: One the best albums I've ever heard!

text: One the best albums I've ever heard!  Very honest and forthcoming, ahead of it's time.  Cat Stevens meets Nick Drake. I am proud listener of Tom LoMacchio's music. Check him out....


title: Covers done right.

text: It takes a lot of balls to cover  one of the best albums ever and honestly, Dream Theater does not disappoint. Before you start crying "How can anyone match Pink Floyd? This is a crime against them and their music." take this for what it is. One awesome band paying homage to one of THE BEST. While Dream Theater are playing Pink Floyd songs, they also inject their own style to make it their own. The second disc "A Saucerful of Floyd" is equally as awesome, compiling songs from other Pink Floyd albums. My only complaint about this album is that the case is NOT original. My case is actually for Uriah Heep. The clear trays were spray painted (sloppily) grey/silver and a sticker was (poorly) slapped on. Overall, I'm 100% happy with the music and would love to get my hands on their covers of Metallica "Master of Puppets" and Iron Maiden "Number of the Beast".


title: Fun! Fun! Fun!

text: The singer has a clear, beautiful voice, and is joined by some fun kids in some songs and a man in another. The songs are simple, sometimes fun and sometimes beautiful. It's a fun and easy way to connect with my child while driving, but we even take it inside the house to listen and to dance to the music. We love this cd!


title: Our Beliefs

text: I really found this book to be enlightening, empowering and validating at the same time. I already believed in the Law of Attraction and the power of our thoughts on our lives. If you view beliefs as thoughts you keep thinking over and over again...negative, limting thoughts have an incredible impact on your life. Dr. lipton does a great job explaining the biology of our beliefs. Definitely read this book; [[ASIN:1419674609 Living The Secret Everyday: My Secret Workbook]]; and listen to some great CDs: [[ASIN:1607434148 Living The Secret Everyday: My Secret Meditation]] to actually change the way you think and [[ASIN:B002B8VJFE Excuses Begone! [How to Change Lifelong, Self-Defeating Thinking Habits] [UNABRIDGED] [AUDIOBOOK/AUDIO CD]]]to develop a deeper insight as to why we think in a negative and limiting way. They have had an incredible<br />impact on my life.


title: Amazing!

text: Listen and your life will change. Yes there are a few issues with the<br />sound delivery but if you take in these glorious messages daily, you can't help but change the way you think and isn't that the key. I've been focusing on the gratitude section- to accept me and my world because I have been sooo trained to facing the problems and seeing the negative. I now know that is okay... I am aware...I am changing by accepting me...it has been amazing. If you can afford only one tool...buy this one; if 2 purchase the workbook along with it.


title: Horrible CD

text: If you can stand her voice, which sounds like she's half dead, then you'll  have to put up with her saying "more and more" at least a DOZEN times throughout this CD.  I don't know if she's from another country, and not familiar with our language, but where she is saying more and more is not appropriate.  It is mostly in the affirmations section of the CD.  So ANNOYING!!  I'd skip this one.


title: A simple tribute - don't expect too much and you won't be disappointed!

text:
This CD is, as far as I know, the sole Wilburys-only tribute disc out there.  Based on that fact, and also the fact that it only had limited availability to begin with, it is of interest....but not much.

What you get is one man accompanying himself with an acoustic guitar.  There is an occasional harmonica thrown in for additional texture.  Overall, the title of the disc sums up the content pretty well.  These are slower, singer-songwriter-styled folk-rock versions of the songs we know and love.  They are different enough to be worthwile, but the original versions of these songs are far greater in musicality and quality than what is on this tribute disc.

11 songs, mostly from the first Wilburys album.  Tracklisting on the CD package itself - and here on amazon.com - is wrong; the songs listed are correct (not counting one song completely omitted), but the order they are in is wrong.  The actual tracklist is:
1) Congratulations
2) Tweeter And The Monkey Man
3) Cool Dry Place
4) End Of The Line
5) Devil Been Busy [sic - The Devil's Been Busy]
6) Dirty World
7) Handle With Care
8) Heading For The Light
9) Last Night
10) Rattled
11) Your Not Alone [sic - Not Alone Any More]

Not counting the wrong song listing, quality control is also a problem elsewhere - there are no production credits to be found anywhere on the disc.  We don't know when it was recorded, who the musician is, nor what label this is on.  The only information on the disc are "c.2007 All rights reserved" and "Made in U.S.A."  This disc showed up in my local music shop roughly around the time of the Rhino re-release of the Wilburys albums in deluxe edition, presumably to piggy-back some sales with that release.  I imagine based on that - they were both in the "Traveling Wilburys" section of the shop - that it sold a handful of copies.

Overall, the singing and guitar playing aren't completely terrible, so I suppose this is worthwile to Wilburys fans and completists.  Just don't expect TOO much...


title: 2 Hearts are beating together!

text: The first single off of her 10th studio album titled "X" Not really a song you would think Kylie of singing and probably my least favorite from the album but it is a good song nonetheless I like the Alan Brave remix a lot better. The 2 extra tracks "King or Queen" and "I don't know what it is" I enjoyed more plus the video for 2 Hearts is included. Very nice cover artwork!


title: Good times!

text: This was the follow up to the hugely successful 'thats what love can do' single... Its just as much fun, plus the remix is incredible!

user_id: AFZAQFEBETNWAKQSUDQWMNRPCGOQ


title: If I have to stand alone

text: This should have been released in the US!! How it could have had a huge hit like "Happenin" and not get a global release is beyond reason.<br />PWL was at their peak, and Lonnie was cheated out of real world wide success. Of course she'd get her shot in 1993, but that was with a remix. And it was the only PWL song she held on to. The title track from this disc would have been a huge hit here as well. Get this disc if you can find it!


title: Way better than the early PWL stuff

text: A 90's gem! Sounds great and the music isn't anything like the PWL sound of her earlier hits. This should have been a big hit, but since it wasnt,  the Naughty Naughty album remained unreleased.  Except for a few copies released in Asia.


title: Great song from ex- Boy Krazy vocalist....

text: Great single from the former Boy Krazy vocalist. Completely different sound from her hits with BK and PWL.  This single comes from her hard to find solo disc "Pride". She only ever released one CD, so if you find it, snatch it up!!


title: Incredible roster of talent...

text: There arent enough words to describe just how great this set is! It has a ton of hits from the now defunct PWL records/Stock-Aitken-Waterman team.. alot of which you cant find anywhere else. This is THE 80's compilation.. You'll find gems from Sonia,Kylie,Dead or Alive, Bananarama, Donna Summer, Tina Cousins,Rick Astley sounding as good today as they did way back when! I suggest you get a copy before its too late. Great sets like this tend to get deleted rather quickly.. If we're really lucky, there will be a volume 2...


title: 2 Hearts

text: The 2 Hearts single is definatly worth your money. You get 2 B-sides "King or Queen" & "I Don't Know What It Is" which are both really good. I reccomend this single to any Kylie fan out there. It's Kylie! Of course it's going to be GREAT! :)


title: Wish this was not out of print.

text: Love the song Supergirl, Miss Duff has a decent enough singing voice although that might be damming  her with faint praise. If you've got the extra money definitely go with the collector's edition


title: APPARENT VOICE CHANGE

text: Mike Reid's voice did not sound like the voice in his Twilight Town as well as the Turning for Home albums, which I liked a lot. After I played this cd once, I gave it away to charity. The difference in the voice at first made me think that I had the wrong disc in the cd player. His looks on the cover of the Twilight Town differ greatly from his looks on the cover of his album. I am uncertain about the reason for both issues sighted here.


title: The album is a must for hymn lovers!  Inspirational!

text: It's a beautiful album.  You must love hymns in order to appreciate this CD.  The Oslo Gospel Choir has performed with Sissel and together they sound like angels.  Beautiful voices and the quality of the audio is exceptional!  Don't need to know the Norwegian language to enjoy it.


title: Risk Everything

text: I first saw Nathan Lee on Legends & Lyrics and was very impressed with the passion of his music.  I began searching for information on how to obtain his CD and discovered that it was not due out until September 1st. I then went to Amazon and found the CD offered by various vendors and ordered it.  This CD is excellent!  I am impressed by every song and would highly recommend it to anyone.


title: Beautiful Christmas music!

text: One of my favorite Christmas albums!


title: Have a listen

text: Now this is emotional stuff quite like the "Angels of the Universe" sound track from Hillmarsson who is also Icelandic. The album is beautiful and often child like. I want to say cute. The only thing that is rather irritating with bands from Iceland is that I swear they all share the same keyboard for the exception of Dada Pogrom. Think of Mum, Kanada, and Worm is Green. That is not necessarily a bad thing though. I think this album has caught the attention of many people.


title: Good but not their best

text: Considering that this is a promotional CD and not an official release, we can't hold Coldplay responsible for putting out a bunch of songs that not only don't represent their great music, but could also confuse newcommers. I agree with another reviewer who says the best thing about this is its "rare" condition. "Sparks" is just a common ballad that does not shine like others. "Careful where you stand" is a bit better and one of their earlier works. "See you soon" is definitely the jewel of this single, a song that can also be found in the very hard to get Blue Room EP. The acoustic version of "Yellow" is good but still doesn't compare to the majestic performances maybe some of you have got a chance to listen to in other singles. The bonus video is also a plus if you are a fan. Overall not bad, but not great either. Definitely an item for collectors and true fans only.


title: Hidden Gem from Elsa (after the earlier famous hits!)

text: Great Album from Elsa after her more famous and recognisable hits. She comes in with a more subtle but well written and produced album. Smooth and effortless and certainly not trying too hard. An elegant well delivered piece of seemingly simple but well crafted material.


title: Awesome

text: This video makes you see just how big God is and how awesome is his works!


title: Buyer Beware!

text:
I purchased this in hopes of having some fun with some P Funk tunes but instead I wound up with a CD-Rom that doesn't work with Windows XP.  Apparently it only works with Windows '95 and and Windows 3.1.  Unfortunately none of this was in the product description, not that there was much of a product description to begin with.

I gave it 3 stars because it MIGHT be cool, but I'll never know.


title: One of her best!!

text: I LOVE Gloria Loring.  I don't know how she didn't become a star like Barbara Streisand.  She has the vocal chops, her beauty and her intelligence.  Now she is an author.  She did a couple Juvenile diabetes books and I also remember a beauty/exercise book back in the late 80's.  Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous-- a very thought provoking book.  I read it over and over again.  I would like to write a book someday  to help others with their problems.  She is MY inspiration!!

title: Five Stars

text: Used CD works great!


title: Five Stars

text: Great item and seller. Tbanks


title: Song Nothing Spectactular Truthful review

text: I Heard the song its nothing spectacular. Sounds unfinished. He did better songs than that in the 80s in his sleep. Its just plain horrible. People are just making a fuss over because hes dead. Where were all these fans when he was alive?


title: Outstanding

text: I listened to this album during my "early summer" vacation on the west coast.  Next provides a thrilling ride from traditional dance tracks to some unique, mind-bending electronica.  The recording deserves five stars when experienced solely for dancing but I especially liked it while driving.  Buy this one, you'll want it in your permanent music collection.


title: Donna the best

text: Donna the best


title: Best album I have bought in a long time

text: Heard two Tracks - 'Peace of Mind' and 'Cold Drivers' - on the soundtrack to Witchblade. Took a bit of time to find out who it was as they don't credit the songs and it appears that the songs listed on the internet are for the TV series - They couldn't get licences for some when the DVD was released so replaced them. Thankfully they did, otherwise I wouldn't have heard of this band. I had to listen carefully and get a couple of lines of lyrics from 'Peace of Mind', and managed to identify the song from the lyrics. As usual, I expected that, on receiving XOXOX, I would find like with most other albums I buy, that the ones I'd heard would be the only tracks worth listening to - wrong!! - This is the first album I have bought in a long time that I can honestly say that I like every track on it, I was also please to find that 'Cold Drivers' was on the album as at that time I was unaware that both tracks were by Trances Arc - Buy it, it is an excellent album - great vocals, musicianship, arrangements, and not over produced. I am now trying to obtain more of Trances Arc catalogue.


title: Memorable

text: All the songs make you feel great. Song number 3 "When We Kiss" is very romantic and the sound lingers with you. Take a listen, you won't be disappointed.


title: I bought this as a christmas present for my wife and was very disappointed!!

text: I ordered this set especially for the video disc but the disc is not formatted to play on U.S. DVD players ! I bought this as a christmas present<br />for my wife and was very disappointed !!!


title: Astonishingly well done performance with enhancing sound effects and enchanting singing.

text:
Multiple cheers for the BBC!!!  Such sensitivity of production and choices as to what and whom to include. As this is the same as the boxed set that I own I can attest that it is a joy to own! I have lent it out on several occasions to discerning friends. One professor opined that driving the distance from Santa Cruz to Los Angeles was made tolerable because enjoying this set enabled him to drive the speed limit without boredom, thus saving him from speeding tickets.
 The voices engaged in this performance are exceptionally well chosen and the sound effects present truly enchanting additions, like the sound of puffing on a pipe, the singing of the Tolkien songs and other special additions, such as the sound attributed to the ring of power and those of the fire. In addition. there are delightful sounds for Loth Lorien and for the descending of the river.
One can listen to it many times with considerable pleasure and without becoming tired of this version. Some of the voices become one's idea of what this character should be. I return to certain tapes many times to enjoy the thoughtful touches which have been so sensitively provided.


title: nonsense title

text:
The transliteration is entirely wrong.  The musician/chanter is
Toyotake Roshô, the most prominent woman musician of gidayû (also
called jôruri).


title: Shahrukh - The King Khan Vol 2

text: Shahrukh - The King Khan, Vol 2 contains 11 songs from 11 films, plus 2 extremely rare tracks (13 songs in all).  It comes with a booklet entirely in English that gives a short biography of SRK, a review of each song and it's film, with song lyrics of 3 songs, and a filmography list at the end.  An entertaining CD of great songs provided by some fabulous vocalists, lyricists and musicians!


title: Shah Rukh Khan King Of Bollywood

text: The case contains 2 CDs with 25 songs.  Although Shah Rukh Khan's other CDs have a few of the same songs, it's nice to note one song each from the films "Rab ne Bana di Jodi", "Veer-Zaara" and "Chak de! India" are included in this selection.  They are not found on his other CDs,  Still, this CD contains many beautiful songs that takes you back to scenes from SRK's films, and I complement the vocalists, lyricists and musicians for producing such beautiful music!


title: Nice collectors item

text: Obvioulsly agreat song but this is a great collectors item and i have it and love it. Well worth getting for any true fan.


title: I love this!

text: It arrived in perfect condition.


title: the first half put me to sleep...

text:
ok, this cd is split into 2: the first 5 tracks which put me to sleep and the rest.
track 6 brings the pace up to a good tempo and is worth the buy.
i think dave felt that he had to give us the required "elevator music" before he could actually let go.


title: Highly recommended

text: A beautiful composition and a great story behind it.

title: My Mireille Matthieu Greatest Hits

text: 5 of the songs were badly recorded and annoy listen to them. Skips, writhing the song, others interrupted with no sound!!!


title: Five Stars

text: Great CD, great price.


title: worthy

text: revolution isn't exactly my favorite veronicas song, however, it IS a catchy tune and the girls know how to churn out the hits.  the "lost in space" remix of "when it all falls apart" is amazing.  definitely worth the price of this disc alone.  and of course, if u haven't heard the veronicas sing live, you are missing out.


title: I love this stuff.

text: I heard about Tanzwut from a friend who showed me their website and played the audio samples there for me.  I almost immediately tracked down this CD on ebay.  I just got it in the mail a couple days ago, and it's hardly left my CD player since.  As a matter of fact, I'm listening to it as I'm writing this.  The fusion of metal/industrial with medieval music creates a pretty unusual sound, but it works.  I've been playing it for friends and telling everyone I know who I think would like them about this band.  More people need to know about this.  Now I want to get a hold of their other CDs too.  This might prove to be a challenge.  Favorite tracks: "Meer", "Für Immer", "Fatue", "Erdberrot", "Der Fluch".


title: I won't add to the previous reviews.

text:
They say all that's needed and better than I could. It's an excellent performance and well recorded. I don't hear the problems that Timothy Mikolay mentions.

I'll just add that this set is included as a single disc in the new [[ASIN:B0091HVMVO Philips Original Jackets Collection: Obsessed With Sound]]. For the price of the collection you get this pair of discs and 54 more recordings, a cheap way to acquire an otherwise expensive (and short for two discs) set. At the present price of both of them, the Requiem is over 25% of the price of the complete 55 CD set.


title: Great Live Show

text: Fantastic Live Show with a full setlist and 3 cd set. You can't get these in retail stores and all Dave Matthews fans know that they are best when they are LIVE. I love this show!


title: Update on classic southern rock

text: While paying tribute to 1970s southern rock, it is impossible to pigeonhole the band and those influences because it is totally new. Amazing vocals and great licks, it is a new classic. Highly recommended.


title: One Of The Best Compilations Ever!

text:
Even though some of these novelty songs are widely available on other 'oldies' CD's, there are more than enough hard-to-find gems here to make it worth the price.  In many cases, you would have to buy an entire CD just to get the one song you wanted.  "Gitarzan" is a prime example.  This is the version you will remember hearing on the radio or on the 45 rpm record you bought.  Sadly, much of the Ray Stevens catalog that's available are re-recordings of his hits and are not the originals.

But there are plenty more of your favorites to enjoy here.  And as I said, some that are hard to find elsewhere.

I have to wonder though why Amazon is offering this as one disc.  When I bought this several years ago, it was a 2-disc CD.  It was distributed by Heartland Music under the auspices of MCA Records, Inc.  So, a word of caution.  You might want to hold off until you find the 2-disc version.  Disc Two has even more hard-to-find novelty songs than Disc One.

Disc Two:

1. Get A Job
2. Alley Oop
3. Auctioneer
4. Who Put The Bomp
5. On Top of Spaghetti
6. Running Bear
7. Baby Sittin' Boogie
8. Dang Me
9. Hot Rod Lincoln
10. All American Boy
11. In The Mood
12. Pepino The Italian Mouse
13. A Boy Named Sue
14. Transfusion
15. The Purple People Eater
16. Winchester Cathedral
17. The Astronaut (Jose Jimenez)
18. Disco Duck
19. When You're Hot
20. Skinnie Minnie


title: Remembering the 50's

text:
I'm always looking for the 50's music that's so hard to find these days.  This 2 CD set won't disappoint you.

If you're just starting out on a 50's music search, this is a great CD for your collection.  Even if you already have some of these hits, it's worth it to get the ones you don't have.

Two examples are "You're So Fine" by the Falcons and "Happy, Happy Birthday Baby" by the Tune Weavers.  Both songs are hard to find anywhere else.  There's also the original version of "Love Potion #9", not to be confused with the British Invasion version some years later.

You really can't go wrong with this one.


title: Great Affair

text: I just re-bought this after Hurricane Sandy two years... It's a great affair. This product woulda got five stars if it wasn't for that one faux pas: As We lay... I got the whole wanna sing it from the male point of view but it wasn't meant to be sung by him... not saying his voice is bad- it isn't. It's just not for him to sing... The key was too low for him. That song is meant for someone with a much higher range lke Tevin Campbell or Freddie Jackson... Overall, it's a great affair.. I'm bumping it now!


title: Amazing Classic!

text: Borderline is a classic Madonna song. It's very reccomended the mixes are great!


title: Amazing

text: She is amazing. Just as Alicia Keys is called the female Stevie Wonder, my first time hearing Amber deLaurentis play piano immediately brought Elton John to mind. Her singing is something entirely her own, though. Bluesy, yet not overwhelmingly so, and always soulful, she has a gorgeous voice and her own style of singing. My favorite song of hers is "Wishful Thinkin'" which is wonderful. Everything I've heard from her sounds great to me, which isn't something I can say about very many artists. I recommend that any fan of piano driven soul, or soulful music period, listen to her.

This is a very special CD for Joni Mitchell lovers to own. To be taken back to that place and time with Joni feels poignant to me. To be afforded the chance to hear songs written and sung by Joni which were never heard before is greatly appreciated.To be privy to a young and innocent Joni via her chats with the audience is compelling. Any chance to learn  and experience more about Joni Mitchell is wonderful. I like the photos I've never seen before, too.
She's not pitch perfect as she would be on her studio recordings to follow and yes, the sound quality isn't great, but I didn't expect it would be with the knowledge that it was recorded in a coffeehouse in 1966. It sounds better than the Hozier recording I just received. There's no excuse for that in this day and age. That's unlistenable.
Any negative aspects  of this CD are eclipsed by the specialness (the word that's keeps coming to mind in regards to this recording) of this offering. Thank you to the powers that be.

There once was a time this 43 year old gay man was addicted to pop music. Before cell phones- mp3 and internet connections...Madonna was my teacher and I lived vicariously through her music. It takes alot to move me enough to write a review years later as a fully employed-mortgage paying adult who listens to pop music in the garage while his partner watches the 11o'clock news inside...
  Katy Perry and her latest effort "Witness" has moved me to post here on Amazon. I've been reading the reviews and what stands out are the negative ones. What is wrong with people? Everyone is a critic and always so harsh. I am surprised that if one has listened to this album that they couldn't feel anything but love and joy.
  This album is beautifully done. Thoughtful and inspiring. Love Katys' confidence with this release- she shines bright knowing what she is doing without ego directing the ride. I give it a thumbs up. I give it an A plus and from this rebel heart to another...Katy is a talented woman who isn't a "flash in a pan". Don't let this album fall victim to wannabe music critics and social media band wagons. Let it envelope your senses and wrap you in its candy coated bliss while the sun is out. Summer is here and you need that album that defines the summer of 2017..."Witness" is the soundtrack to this years vacation.
