title: Solid collection of inspirational music

text:
This is another in a long list of inspirational music collections produced by Reader's Digest, and it is very good except for the patriotic music which they seem compelled to put on some of their inspirational collections, and which in my view don't belong on collections of inspirational/gospel/Christian music.

title: Great voices

text: I have always enjoyed listening to people who can actually sing (which doesn't just include opera singers, incidentally), so when I originally came across this set in cassette version at a yard sale I snapped it up.  It contains one disc per singer, and the music is outstanding and includes a mixture of both operatic and popular songs.  I was very pleased to find the CD version on Amazon, and it is just another great example of Reader's Digest music.  If you enjoy listening to great singers and great music, I highly recommend this set.


title: Ultimate in traditional Christian music

text: I first came across this CD set in the middle 90's, but by the time I had the money I had to settle for the cassette version.  This set was commissioned by Reader's Digest and is a compilation of many of the more traditional Christian hymns, spirituals, and inspirational songs from the 50's and 60's.  Shea, affectionately (and justly) nicknamed America's Beloved Gospel Singer, sang as featured soloist with the Billy Graham Crusades for over fifty years, and was singing in the crusades up to the time when Mr. Graham retired a couple of years ago, when he (Shea) was well into his nineties.  For those who prefer the older Christian music and are not perhaps as fond of the contemporary "Christian" music, this is the set for you.  Unfortunately, it was first issued in 1993 and has been out of print for some time now, but I would strongly advise anyone who enjoys great singing to watch Amazon and other places for this set and buy it when it becomes available, because singing of this caliber with music of this importance rarely comes along.  There are 60 songs on three CDs or cassettes, and they are worth every penny.

text: Disliked. Already had in my collection


title: MusicShop 780 Team

text: The MusicShop 780 team did a great job of getting this shipped out in time for the Holidays all the way from Argentina!!


title: Product never got here. I do not know how to contact anyone nor track it down.

text: I never got it.  I needed it by June 1st.  Very upsetting.  After I ordered it than I was told (several days later) that it would come from June something to like the middle of July (about three week waiting period).  I should have been told about the long delivery time before I ordered because I would not have gotten it.  This is the first item not to come in a week from Amazon.  It was for a birthday.


title: Love the autographed print that came with the LP

text: I’ve been a huge fan of Duran Duran since 1983 and I’ll admit their first single Invisible had to grow on me. I absolutely love the tracks more joy and anniversary!!! Can’t wait to hear them live. I also can’t believe I was able to buy the album with the autographed print included here on Amazon. That just made my day.

title: Want a few good laughs and a jawdropping display of world class guitar playing? Here is The Kang!!!

text: Unknown Hinson is funny as hell and writes/plays songs with a heavy dose of politically incorrect redneck humor. As if that's not enough, he is one hell of a guitarist! He'd put a lot of the modern rock-god guitarists to shame and he makes it look so easy! He can play country, blues, hard rock and rockabilly with authority. He has a natural feel that can't be taught, he feels every note he plays. He's a good singer which shows thru when he's doing numbers like "Silver Platter". And the band is tight and top notch. If you love songs with a wicked sense of humor combined with a world class guitar hero, get this cd. Hell, get all of his cd's! If you really want to see what you're missing, check out his live video's on you tube, posted by his fans. I'm a recent convert to The Kang's loyal following and I'm hoping his tour makes it to my area. Also, check out squidbillies, as he's the voice of the main character, Early. Early is Unknown Hinson on nitro, redneck humor at it's extreme best!!

title: Grrrreat album!!!

text: It is Great!!!


title: This is a great album

text: When Mr. Rocket Baby formed in the early 1990s they wanted to sound like a 60s pop band (i.e. The Zombies).  The result was one of the most upbeat albums of the 90s.  1994's "Make Believe" showcases the band's unique brand of rock, fusing 60s pop with 90s rock to produce a happy bopping ear-pleasing sound that is retro without sounding dated.  If you're a fan of frontman Johnny Goudie's later solo work, you should definitely enjoy the tunes on Make Believe.


title: Awesome

But in general just Love Elliott and his sincere, authentic voice!! Wish he played concerts around here!! I would recommend this CD if you want a warm, cozy feeling for the Holidays. It was worth waiting for...all the way from Japan!


I love Joyce Meyer publications and this one did not disappoint. So great to listen to on your drive in to work to get the day started in the right direction!


title: Not worth it

text: I don’t like it. It looks used or worn out


Kid loved it


As a hardcore GD fan this is a cool pick up nonetheless. I can't find a few of these performances online so hearing songs being played 4-5 years prior release on acoustic is amazing. Quality of recordings are okay, again I really like this because of me being the GD fan I am, so if you're like me I would totally recommend this.


title: My girlfriend loved it

text: She loved the CD. Had all her favorite songs


title: One of my favorite

text: Great album and I loved the photos that came along with it. Jun K is one of my favorite Korean singers.

title: Best Buckeye CD out there!

title: Recommended for fans of doom or power electronics

The product description for this album is incredibly weak--"more like an album of sound effects"?  Come on....

Sure there are a lot of creepy sounds in here, but they are masterfully composed.  It's a really unique sound as well, incorporating field recordings/found sounds, PE-esque analog synth gurgles, harsh noise type feedback squalls & dark ambient cave echoes and rumbles.  Incredibly creepy but drone enough to relax to...until the random scream comes crashing through.

Highly recommended if you're a fan of anything from Lustmord to Whitehouse to David Lynch soundtracks.

title: Good but could've easily been better.

text:
Anything new from the Eagles of the Don Felder era is always a good thing!
That said, I found the recording and editing disappointing. The volume level was annoyingly erratic. I had to adjust the volume often while listening, either not being able to hear parts or being blasted. I would guess better editing could've cured most of this, along with too much dead time between songs. And they still had the annoying chick in the crowd wailing like fingernails on a blackboard, as they did on the original Hell Freezes Over CD.....which was my only complaint about that one.
Still, well worth the price for an Eagles fan.

The Vacation cancelled passport edition was released in 2003 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the movie. Discs and sleeves were created via red dot on demand kiosks within Six Flags amusement park limited to 20,000 copies.  The CD itself features 36 tracks which I will break down below as tracks from European vacation and Vegas Vacation are also featured

Vacation (1983)

1.Introduction featuring Chevy Chase, Matty Simmons and Randy Quaid (pre "Star whackers")

2.Holiday Road by Lindsey Buckingham

3.Ed's car lot [dialogue from movie] Chevy Chase & Eugene Levy

4.Mr. Blue by The Fleetwoods

5.Mocking Bird [dialogue from movie] Chevy Chase & Beverly D'Angelo

6.Blitzkrieg Bop by The Ramones

7.Walley World Anthem [dialogue from movie] cast of vacation

8.Deep River Blues by Ralph Burns

9.Your Feet [dialogue from movie] Chevy Chase

10.Summer Hearts by Nicolette Larson

23.Park Closed [dialogue from the movie] cast of vacation

24.Dancin' 'Cross The USA by Lindsey Buckingham

25.Radio Commercial featuring cast of vacation [possibly from movie trailer]

26.Holiday Road by Limp (cover version of the Lindsey Buckingham song incorrectly credited to Limp Bizkit) an error I'm sure was made in the printing of the label

European Vacation (1985)

27.Pig In A Poke [theme from the beginning of game show which the Griswolds are contestants]

28.Ca Plane Pour Moi by Plastic Bertrand [song played during the Paris art museum]

29.Big Spender Beverly D'Angelo [movie dialogue]

30.Some Like It Hot by Power Station [song played during Rusty's dream sequence "Rusty" The European tour]

31.Sound of Griswold Chevy Chase [movie dialogue]

32.A Town Called Malice by The Jam [song played during the scene Rusty tells Clark that's how I want my hair dad uh Rus you don't want to like a porcupine do you?]

33.New Looks by Dr. John [played during the shopping spree in Rome, IT]

34.Back in America by Network [played during the end credits of movie]

Vegas Vacation (1997)

35.Born To Be Alive by Patrick Hernandez

36.Ready To Go (U.S. Mix) by Republica

This is getting an unfair reputation as a "Bootleg" Do you honestly believe that Warner Bros would let something like this slide if some type of deal hadn't been hammered out by them and Six Flags to authorize and distribute this? mine is special release 14,120/20,000 if in doubt a letter to Warner Bros music and six flags should clear any doubt you have up about this.  The original vinyl release of Vacation had 10 tracks

1.  Holiday Road (02:11)
Lindsey Buckingham
2.  Mister Blue (02:24)
The Fleetwoods
3.  Blitzkrieg Bop (02:13)
Ramones
4.  Deep River Blues (04:24)
Ralph Burns
5.  Summer Hearts (03:07)
Nicolette Larson
6.  Little Boy Sweet (03:48)
June Pointer
7.  The Trip (Theme From Vacation) (02:37)
Ralph Burns
8.  He's So Dull (02:31)
Vanity 6
9.  Christie's Song (03:02)
Ralph Burns
10.  Dancin' Across The USA (03:09)
Lindsey Buckingham

This release obviously expands greatly with snippets of dialogue from the movie as well as the soundtrack to European vacation [not sure if this was given a release on vinyl} and the 2 tracks from Vegas vacation.  I have also read the Christmas Vacation soundtrack was also given the same type of limited release as well.  Don't know what this originally retailed for but I paid a "fair" price for it.  For the reviewers complaining about the prices they paid well you got the item what were you expecting?? these are now collector pieces if you want it bad enough you'll pay the price no one forced you to purchase at those prices.

title: A Marvelously Musical -- and Dramatic -- St. John Passion

text:
Just before the HIPP movement began to hit its stride in the early 1970s Wolfgang Gonnenwein recorded both Bach Passion settings in Munich for EMI's German affiliate, Electrola. At that time (and yes, I was around back then) they attracted, at best, lukewarm critical reactions in the USA. In fact, only Gonnenwein's St. Matthew Passion received a release on EMI's US affiliate, Angel Records; I had to buy this recording of the St. John Passion as an expensive German LP import. Competing against widely admired Passion LP recordings by Karl Richter (DGG)  and Karl Munchinger (Decca/London), Gonnenwein's recordings disappeared from record store shelvesalmost as soon as they were released.

Well, with the passage of time Karl Richter's recordings in particular have suffered eclipse at the hands of contemporary scholarship about Baroque performance practice. Indeed, the current plethora of Bach Passion recordings could seem to pass definitive judgment about Bach performed anyway other than those proclaimed by the Gospel of HIPP.

Except ... many of us who love this music continue to go back to the likes of Richter and Munchinger -- and even Klemperer & Furtwaengler -- for their insights into Bach's great choral music. Most of us don't dismiss the particular excellences offered by conductors like Brueggen, Gardiner, Herreweghe, McCreesh and Suzuki, but we still feel an affinity for conductors who experienced Bach as part of their grounding in an age-long musical culture and tradition.

This is all by way of saying that, to my mind, Gonnenwein's Bach recordings are remarkably satisfying. On the one hand, they convey the spirit of Bach with deep emotion as felt by generations of performers who took seriously the music's religious 'message'. On the other hand, both Gonnenwein's St. Matthew and St. John Passion recordings present the music lucidly and without leaden heaviness.

Gonnenwein's soloists are a distinguished lot, including Elly Ameling, Brigitte Fassbaender, Franz Crass and Kurt Moll. His primary chorus in both recordings is the South German Madrigal Choir and it delivers choral textures with a satisfying transparency. Ditto the chamber orchestra contribution provided by Gonnenwein's excellent instrumentalists.

To sum up, clarity and transparency are marvelously combined with rich musical coloring and real spiritual feeling in Gonnenwein's recordings. I return to them regularly and with real pleasure.

EMI/Electrola's analog stereo sound quality is first-rate for the period. The particular recording of the St. John Passion reviewed here is a Musical Heritage Society CD set leased from EMI/Electrola. I can report that the CDs impressively convey the warmth of the LPs plus that additional clarity delivered by high quality digital remastering.

Wolfgang Gonnenwein's Bach recordings might be little-remembered 'dark horse' contenders in today's ever-so-saturated market of recorded Bach Passions. But IMHO Gonnenwein continues to provide a compelling, spiritually nourishing musical experience.


title: Exquisite Performances of Exquisite Music

text:
I own all of the Dorian label recordings made by singer Julianne Baird and lutenist Ronn McFarlane in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Taken down by Dorian's expert engineers in the astonishingly warm but clear acoustics provided by the 19th century concert hall of the Troy (New York) Savings Bank, each of their CDs has provided me with hours of pleasure.

This particular CD, highlighting 'Greensleeves' among other English lute songs of the Elizabethan era and earlier, puts the two together in a dream duo recital. McFarlane's vibrant but impeccably tasteful lute stylings accompany Baird's astonishingly lovely voice to perfection.

Full texts are provided in the accompanying, handsomely produced booklet.


title: Browning's Shapely Scarlatti

text: I recently purchased the Sony Box Set containing all of John Browning's recordings made for RCA and CBS/Columbia in the 1960s and early 1970s. I was so impressed by Browning's very musical and sensitive virtuosity (I'd forgotten just how fine a pianist he was) that I decided to try this late recording of Scarlatti sonatas. Wow! It's all there ... pearly runs, deft articulation, completely idiomatic use of rubato. This is Scarlatti on the piano to be ranked with recordings by Horowitz and Maria Tipo (Sony and EMI, respectively). So happy to have this disc which is now somewhat rare. Snatch it up if you can ... you won't be disappointed. Superb piano sound adds to the CD's distinction.


title: Fantastic Bible Story

text: This is an awesome CD, especially it's message.  The story of the Prodigal Son, is made to come to life, and it is also so easy to understand.  I was introduced to this before CD's were created and I was elated to find that it is now in CD format so I can get to my children today, what a great way to teach and learn the Word of God!!!!  I am 60+ years young now and I still continue to love this story, as told by these Ants. This CD is filled with the "Wisdom from Above".  Everyone needs to get this CD for their children,<br />or yourself, it will tell of the Love of God for us.

title: Amazing world class female singer of Mizrahi prayer poems

text: In the words of Yossi Klein Halevi about this singer and album, "...Finally: Our generation has produced a world class paytanit (female singer of Mizrahi piyut, prayer poems).<br />For the last weeks I've been obsessively listening to Morin Nehedar's astonishing debut album, Yesheina b'Chek Yaldut (Asleep in the Bosom of Childhood --the title comes from a poem by the medieval Spanish Jewish philosopher and poet, Yehudah Halevi)."

title: This is a very rare and hard-to-find group. I love almost all of the songs on this album.

text: This particular CD is a must have in your Christian Music Collection. From the very first song on the album, you will be hooked.


title: Good course but overpriced by many sellers!!!!!

text: This course contains about eight hours of information.  The professor has a laid back style that is easy to listen to.  It is important to remember that this course IS an introduction to Buddhism and may be of little interest to someone who is medium to well versed in Buddhism.  Also, many sellers are trying to ripe off the customers, on this one.  The publisher listed this as selling for $134.95, regular price, but offers it 3 or 4 times a year for $34.95! So, for over half the year, regularily, it can be bought, brand new, from the manufacturer, THE TEACHING COMPANY, for $34.95 plus postage FOR BOTH VOLUMES.

title: Great overview of a great band!

text: After making the mistake of purchasing another "Greatest Hits" that has "remastered" songs (read that edited/shortened), I decided to spend more to get more.  This is the best!  (Stay away from the other "Greatest Hits" it's got a cover that looks like sunset colors and isn't worth the money.)


title: This live early-career club concert is wonderful! It’s Barbra at the beginning and her Voice ...

text: This live early-career club concert is wonderful! It’s Barbra at the beginning and her Voice is young and near perfection! To have this preserved on CD is a real treasure for all Streisand fans. The CD also contains other rarities to round out the collection. Great sound quality and a must-own for every Streisand fan.

text: Great CD


title: A bit pricey, but a great set if you are a fan of the show

text: My favorite western series of the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and this century....and, I had no idea that this was actually available...the music from the show. It fits the show, and the scenes so well, And it is directly from the show, NOT some remake. I recognize it, because I loved the music when I was a kid, and this collection has music that is subtle, and the action sequences - and they were careful not to add duplication. It's a 4-disc set, and the sound is clean (no tape hiss, no scratches or pops - perfect!). With the multitude of composers, the most recognizable for me is the Richard Shores tracks. Everything from Arte's undercover break-in scenes, West's fight scenes, Dr. Loveless' entries and escapes, they are ALL here! I do think the set is a bit pricey, but considering the rare find, and being a huge fan of the show, it's worth it.


title: Great CD

text: I first bought this CD in Canada back in the 90's when it hit the stores.  Nothing like the old time Canadian fiddle.  Lost it in a move and tried to find a replacement for years, to no avail.  Then a seller on Amazon made my day!  Rare find and I highly recommend it!!  Thank you!


title: The Best Harp and Guitar album ever!

text: When I need an emotional pick me or need to feel "INSPIRED" then this is the 'GO TO' ALBUM.  All the songs [no vocals] are totally original and so beautiful and so soul touching that I am bombarded with memories. These compositions really speak to my romantic and affectionate disposition. In addition to being a songwriter and comedy librettist, I am a document examiner which calls for hours of report writing and this album transforms a boring job into a joyous occasion. So I buying this album again but this time for a Brazilian friend as a gift because he is a hopeless romantic too. It even comes with a sweet dedication to other composers.


title: "Square One" is an amazing album!

text: I bought "Square One" here on Amazon the other day and have heard the album four times.  I am not a jazz aficionado, so I was amazed how incredibly impressed I was with this album. I've spent a lifetime saying "When I go to hell, the Devil is going to greet me playing a saxophone!"  But there is a marvelous tenor sax player named David "Fathead" Newman who didn't annoy the hell out of me.  Sean Sullivan has a one of a kind voice that knows how to sell a lyric which is the greatest compliment I can give a singer because I worship at the altars of the world's great lyricists and the singers who do them justice. He writes some neat songs, and sings two of my favorite Brazilian songs in Portuguese. [Wow!] Now here's what really enthralled me: I absolutely love "Laura" and have been listening to this lovely Raksin/Mercer song done by everybody, (and even sing it in the shower myself) but Sean Sullivan captured a plaintiveness, sadness, and futility that I had never heard before, and he absolutely painted a picture around, "But she's only a dream!" and with a beautiful, highly trained voice to boot. It gave me chills. It touched a responsive chord in me. His back-up musicians are top notch, and know how to play all the songs without being self-indulgent and dissonant which always ruins it for me.  He appropriately dedicated this album to the memory of his tenor sax guy, David Newman who is just marvelous.<br />Even when Sean does scatting, he is a delight, and put in some "Satchmo" that made me grin.  If you think you've known "Love For Sale" you don't. There are sounds and dialogue that launch the song from what appears to be the perspective of a pimp! It is so original and cool. Now I have to order some other Sean Sullivan albums. This one was a feast of marvelous musicianship.  He sings, writes, and plays guitar too.

title: I've Got a Train to Catch

text:
The Western: a classic and simple genre, famous for its portrayals of lawless towns, armed bandits, shootouts, saloons, and whisky drinking. "3:10 to Yuma" is a film that makes use of them all, and I expected nothing less. What I did not expect was a story of amazing depth and complexity; this remake of Delmer Daves' 1957 film--which itself was based on Elmore Leonard's short story--is a triumph of plot and character development, telling a story that's just as meaningful as it is brutal. It begs the question: Is there truly a clear distinction between good and evil? This film refuses to answer that question, making for one of the most compelling films of the year.

One of the main characters is Ben Wade (Russell Crowe), an Arizona outlaw with a deplorable record of robbery and murder to his name. He seems to feel no remorse over his actions; indeed, he is an unlikable character, having little if any regard for other people and what he puts them through. But at the same time, he's engaging and oddly magnetic, with an air of mystery that's undeniably fascinating. Watching him, one gets the sense that he knows what someone else is thinking, which is both interesting and disturbing. He leads a band of murderers and thieves across the Western desert, a ruthless band that remains loyal for no apparent reason. Judging by the behavior of Wade's right hand man--Charlie Prince (Ben Foster)--one gets the sense that a little hero worship is at work.

The other main character is Dan Evans (Christian Bale), a one-legged farmer currently in a financial crisis. A greedy, arrogant landlord named Hollander (Lennie Loftin) has cut off the local water supply, destroying Evans' crops and making the land infertile. Hollander also oversaw the burning of Evans' barn; Evans had borrowed money, but was unable to repay. To make matters worse, Wade stole Evans' herd of cattle. Facing a lifetime of hardship and the disrespect of his wife and children, Evans joins a motley crew of townsfolk in their effort to capture Wade: the rich Grayson Butterfield (Dallas Roberts); the cantankerous Byron McElroy (Peter Fonda); and Doc Potter (Alan Tudyk), the local veterinarian (who occasionally sees human patients). In return for having him arrested and sent to Yuma Prison, Evans will be paid handsomely. But catching Wade will prove to be no easy task; by the time he is caught, more than a few lives are ruined.

Thus begins a physical and emotional journey, one of incredible insight. Wade is now bound by handcuffs and ready to be transported to Yuma. Once there, he'll board a prison train at 3:10 in the afternoon. As one might expect, almost nothing goes according to plan, and the characters are thrust into life or death situations. This is especially true in terms of Wade's posse, which has been following Evans' group relentlessly. In the midst of all character interactions, the greatest dynamic exists between Evans and Wade. At first glance, they seem like complete opposites; one lives a life of honesty while the other lives a life of crime. Nonetheless, both men are deeply flawed, with emotional baggage they have yet to rid themselves of. They have more in common than either would care to believe.

This isn't to say that being on common ground has brought them closer together. If anything, they push each other's buttons, especially when it comes to matters of faith: Wade--a lowly, deceitful man--is a pious Christian, and he always seems ready to quote a passage or two from the Bible; Evans--a good, honest man--is struggling with his faith, feeling as if God has ignored him for quite some time. Both men hide secret pain, all of which is slowly revealed as the film progresses. There's something about their line of communication that I found incredibly revealing, especially when the worst is brought to the surface. Example: Wade rouses Evans by questioning his treatment of his wife. "You say one more word," Evans shouts as he grabs hold of Wade, "and I'll cut you down right here." "I like this side of you, Dan," is Wade's reply. Here's a conversation that speaks volumes with so few words. It was highly effective.

An intriguing subplot involves Evans' son, William (Logan Lerman), a headstrong fourteen-year-old who feels he has something to prove. While specifically told to stay home with his mother and brother, William runs off to join his father, hoping to be of use. But more importantly, he seems genuinely curious about Wade: Is there, in fact, something to be gained by knowing who Ben Wade really is? Is this killer really as cold-blooded as he lets on? It's difficult to know for sure, especially since he and Evans form alliances just as quickly as they break them. What they share can't be considered a friendship. But on the same token, they are able to acknowledge each other's existence, and not always with hostility. Surely something can be said for that.

By the time the characters reach Yuma and engage in a climactic shootout, any sense of black and white reasoning has been lost. "3:10 to Yuma" exists in that massive gray area between the two, preventing the audience from pigeonholing the characters into definite types. This is without a doubt the film's greatest strength, acting as an appropriate counterpart to the ending. While the final moments require a little extra thought on our part, it still plays out beautifully, about as smooth and efficient as a well-oiled machine. For all the clichés that could have bogged it down, "3:10 to Yuma" is a Western that doesn't let itself get carried away. This is not a shallow Tough Guy movie; it's a wonderfully executed character study. Here's one train that you should definitely catch.


title: Royalty to One's Country

text:
What's interesting about "The Queen" is that it gives insight into the life of a public figure that's actually quite private: Queen Elizabeth II. I obviously have no way of understanding the responsibilities associated with ruling a country, but--at the risk of stating the obvious--I can imagine that it isn't easy. Every decision, action, and idea that's made will meet with praise and/or criticism on a global scale. Options must be weighed for the benefit of her people, not for the benefit of herself or her family. She must be willing to be scrutinized and ridiculed by the media, who legally have the right to attack her character, disagree with her policies, and mock her in general. These issues are skillfully examined in this film. However, I'm hard pressed to say that it's an accurate examination. Likewise, some viewers may be turned off by its consistently dry tone.

Nonetheless, there's a lot about this film to enjoy, not the least of which is Helen Mirren's portrayal of the Queen; here's a woman that was raised to believe that the needs of her country outweigh her own needs. While she's diligent and professional when it comes to governmental affairs, her emotions are kept under lock and key. This proved to be troublesome in August of 1997, when Diana, Princess of Wales, died in Paris in an automobile accident. The Queen's immediate reaction is deciding to keep the Royal Family out of the public eye. Part of this decision had to do with Diana's children, who needed to grieve without the press hassling them. The rest had to do with the Queen's disapproval of Diana; she saw her as nothing more than a publicity hound. Furthermore, Diana was technically no longer a member of the Royal Family (she divorced Prince Charles a year earlier). Because of that, it seemed proper to respect the wishes of the Spencer family to have a private funeral.

This does not sit well with the British population, who generally loved Diana for her humanitarianism. Public opinion soon turns against the Queen. At the same time, the popularity ratings for the newly elected Prime Minister, Tony Blair (Michael Sheen), are rising; he's been much more public about Diana's tragic death. A majority of the film focuses on his working relationship with the Queen, specifically in trying to get her to cooperate and listen to her people. They want her to make a statement. They want her to raise the flag over Buckingham Palace at half-mast. They want her to acknowledge the throngs of Diana supporters that are leaving bouquets at the Palace gates. She refuses to take part in the media frenzy. In her mind, Diana's death is a private matter; the public will simply have to accept that.

It's soon decided that Diana's funeral will, in fact, be a public affair. True, the Queen finds this highly improper. However, she also begins to understand the British people will not let this one go; they want Diana to have a proper funeral, and the want their Queen to show some degree of compassion. The pressure they put on her is increasing, so much so that long buried emotions begin to resurface. Example: while walking through a remote countryside, she cries for the first time. It's obvious that years of royal etiquette have had an impact; despite the fact that she's alone and surrounded by acres of open land, her sobs are forcefully restrained. In that moment, her only comfort is a wild buck that passes by; it's large, majestic, and clearly symbolic of strength and fortitude.

At that point, she finally begins taking Blair's advice, much to the chagrin of her husband, Philip (James Cromwell), and her mother (Sylvia Sims). She publicly walks past the piles of bouquets, reading notes written by Diana supporters (one says, "Your blood is on their hands"). She makes a televised statement (albeit a prewritten, mechanical, emotionless one). It all leads up to Diana's funeral, a full media blowout with celebrity attendance, including Luciano Pavarotti, Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks, and Elton John (who would score a hit with the new version of "Candle in the Wind"). By the time the funeral ends, the Queen's relationship with Prime Minister Blair has diminished considerably. Their final scene acts as a counterpart to their first, in which they meet: the latter is a light, pleasant moment between the two; the former is tense and reserved.

Some might think that the purpose of "The Queen" is to portray Elizabeth II as a cold, uncaring, conservative individual. Indeed, her engrained devotion to duty and honor doesn't make her especially gregarious. However, I don't think the filmmakers were attempting to portray her in any particular fashion, nor do I think they were passing judgment on her; instead, they were presenting her plainly and directly, allowing the audience to come to their own conclusions. Maybe it's best that we do no such thing; very few can appreciate the responsibilities and sacrifices required of a ruler.

title: Enjoyable stuff

text: I bought one of these CDs, Sasha's "Live In Ibiza". I normally don't go for pure DJ, House, Trance music but this 2 disc compilation was very good. The first CD is a little lighter sounding than the second, it has a more techno-dance sound.<br />The second CD has a darker, deeper House sound that I enjoyed very much. I have'nt heard alot Sasha's work but the music on this CD is quite good. Very good driving, working or whatever music.

Chonda will make you laugh..,Chonda will make you think..Chonda will have you enthralled

Her songs and stories will make you laugh. If you remember Erma Bombeck, you will understand her humor is in the same vein. Think a Christian Phyllis Diller or Bill Cosby..maybe one day Diller & Chonda  will meet, what a meeting of the domestic goddess  that would be. Pierce's  comedy is clean and works on many levels.

Get this on CD (or DVD) and laugh!

After you buy this one, Find a copy of her cd "Be Afraid...Be Very Afraid" it is just as funny

title: V for Very Good

text:
V for Vendetta (9.5 hours, eight CDs, Unabridged, Blackstone Audio) is  the spoken word version of the novelization of the movie script based upon the DC comics graphic novel (DON"T ASK ME TO REPEAT THAT SENTENCE  AGAIN!). Simon Vance is a wiz in his narration. In this production,  he is a one man band who preforms so this so well. Vance mesh characters so complete that you would think the studio was filled with people instead of the party of one. The fantasy story is part Count of Monte Cristo, which is eluded to many times the piece and part 1984. It was an interesting movie and an equally marvelous audiobook.

While searching on Amazon, I came across this CD set and remembered a friend had recommended it because she said her children loved it.<br />The music is catchy and fun for little ones, and the verses are encouraging. The best part is that playing it for my little ones has helped me to memorize Scripture as well.

text: I tracked this down after reading about Owley's untimely death and I consider it one of the treasures of my collection.  This CD is a lost classic that nobody seems to know about (beyond a few thousand Japanese fans).  This is perfect power pop from a couple masters of the art operating at their prime.

title: GOOD BUY

text: My wife re-purchased this CD after the 1st on got scratched.  That is how much she likes it!


title: This is really an amazing record - but the mastering is crazy

text: Altogether an amazing experimental pop/no wave/protest record, absolutely of it's time but still fascinating.  A few of these songs are both riveting lyrically and super cool and listenable enough to put them into my 5,000 desert island songs...but wait!  The mastering on this is so thin as to require the listener to ignore the screechy guitar at the high end in order to hear what's going on.  My theory is that this is a mastering job gone wrong.  Maybe the band wanted a crunchy guitar and thought the end result was how an album with crunchy guitars had to sound...or whoever was in charge of this reissue never asked anyone whether a different mastering job would serve the music better...or something!  There's gotta be an explanation for how bad this sounds!!  My suspicions are reinforced by examining where the screeching lies -- I found that there is one thin frequency band that is clearly boosted - the guitar occupies a few bands of frequency while this boosted frequency is just one thin part of the guitar sound, suggesting to me that something went wrong.  I experimented with attenuating that band and boosting the midrange and lower midrange and you are really left with a really great record that is also pretty listenable.  Please, please, whoever owns these masters, remaster this album so the world can hear how great it is!


title: Beautiful original compositions in an Indian tradition

text: This stuff is just gorgeous, if you like traditional Indian ensemble music you will love this.  Original compositions.  Wow, beautiful.  Not knowing a lot of Indian music my point of comparison is some of the music on Collaborations by Ravi Shankar and George Harrison.  Highly recommended.


title: Gorgeous

text: This is really quite a find, very soulful.  I came across this quite by accident, and am entranced, especially by the first handful of songs.  And the influences are quite wide ranging, I had just been listening to Stevie Wonder and I hear Stevie in the first two songs in particular.  Don't get me wrong, this is firmly jazz, and there are no vocals, but there is a moderness and a soul influence that makes this defeat expectations, in a good way.  Really great.


title: Four and a Half Stars - Very accomplished, gorgeous, highly arranged large band jazz

text: Not sure how an album like this can go unreviewed and possibly unnoticed by many, I listened to it the same day as the Gil Evans posthumous recording "Centennial" and found this more listenable, more alive, prettier.  Ed Neumeister is a trombonist and composer arranger (of all the tunes here).  Great stuff.


Playful, inventive abstractions of familiar melodies from a talented trio of players.  Highly listenable.  4 and a half stars.


title: MUST HAVE

title: Wonderful Set, A Month Before He Died

text: Everybody plays great on the 3-CD set from a Cleveland club. This "underground" recording is well done by a someone who's learning as he goes. Distortion on the earlier nights disappears by the third; balance is mostly very musical, and improves. Legendary recording engineer Wally Heider went through the same "drinking from the fire hose" a decade earlier with his first recordings of the Kenton band. When I say everyone plays great, Newk, Max, and Clifford are on fire, and I've hearing energy from pianist Richie Powell that I never heard him before. Clifford, Max, and Newk are playing new stuff each night. This is a great document of a great band, and a wonderful artist that we lost much too soon.


title: Delightful -- One of Barry's Best

text: Barry is in great shape for this 1990 session, which was very well recorded in Holland on a very nice piano.  (Barry suffered a stroke in 1993 that limited his left hand, but it certainly didn't affect the beauty of his playing.) In addition to some of Barry's favorites from the Great American Songbook (including Monk and Bud), there are three of Barry's original compositions, two if which I've not found elsewhere. It's an absolute delight. There's 15 minutes of Monk, and no one is a better interpreter of his music -- Barry and Thelonious were two of the musicians with whom the Baroness shared her home for many years; both were living there when they died, Monk in '82, Barry in '21.

title: Five Stars

text: Fantastic quality from a bygone era of non politically correct comedy


title: Overall Very Good

text: The book is fantastic, as expected. The audio version is a little strange, as there are sudden narrator changes in the middle. The guest reader attempts a Southern accent for a few paragraphs, and it’s not good.


title: Exposed to Water

text: Liner notes were water-damaged.  Staple rusted and pages stuck together.  CD appears undamaged.


title: Disappointed

text: There should be some type of identification system for music purchases.  This is pretty much a hard rock cd and I am an easy listening type.  Got to check the return policy for opened music.


title: I love it!

text: I grew up in Knoxville Tennessee which is where these calls took place. If you quote anything John said on this recording to a TRUE Knoxvillian they will know exactly what you are talking about. In East Tennessee you can threaten to whup somebodys a** as long as you put "huh" on the front of it. Try it. This recording (in the form of a tape) has been in my household for as long as I can remember. Probably like 15 years. We always just called it Leroy Mercer or whup-a**. I didn't even know the guy's name or his story until recently. This man was hilarious! It is terrible how those other guys ripped him off. Fact is, this guy IS the real deal.


title: Great reissue

text: I don't know how I missed this box set when it was first released but I am thrilled to have been able to get my hands on this one...as far as I am concerned vinyl is heads above any other listening experience out there and I am thrilled it looks like it is making a comeback...This box set is a great addition to my collection. The tracks on the 4 45s are an excellent selection of THE BEATLES AT THEIR BEST!!!


title: Best Written Album in Ages

text: Waters continues to strikeout against conventional wisdom and societal beliefs by writing songs that make one rethink their religious beliefs and the societal limits placed on challenging what is acceptable!  Tracks 2, 8, and 9 are worth listening to over and over.  Let another person delve into the lyrics - and have a lively debate - if you dare!  Be prepared to discuss for hours.


title: Worth every penny

text: It's great having 1999 and all the b-sides remastered from that era, but what I really look forward to is the unreleased material and the earlier raw versions of release songs.

title: We the Living - Ayn Rand

text: I definitely enjoyed the audio book.  The only negative for me was the audio quality might have been somewhat better.  I know the "book" is an old book written "back in the day" and original quality of audio was probably what I listened to.  I would still recommend the audio book to any Ayn Rand fan as most IMHO would overlook the audio quality.  Good packing, as advertised and delivered as scheduled.

title: Awesome music

text: Enjoy listening to Lecrae’s music!


title: Excellent Hypnotist

text:
Christopher Love is very good at what he does. He uses a lot of Theta & Delta sounds. All his CDs that I have listened to are extremely relaxing, which is a good thing for meditating. In the relaxed state, the listener is susceptible to the suggestions. Mr. Love's voice is nice and his wording isn't freaky either(like some "hypnotherapists" with CDs out there). His voice is strong but not intimidating. His wording is simple, yet thoughtful and thorough.

As with any guided meditation, you should stick with one program for 30 days; they don't always mix so well and it's always best to keep things simple for the subconscious. After the 30 days, you can mix as you wish.

When it comes to audio hypnosis or subliminal tracks, better quality headphones result in more effective results. Sennheiser is best brand that I know of. They have headphones for all price ranges too. $25-$1,400. $1700 for headphones is a bit outrageous I think, but to each their own
[[ASIN:B002SKKQZO Grado PS1000 - Headphones ( ear-cup )]] $1,700
[[ASIN:B0007XJSQC Sennheiser HD201 Headphones]] $20

Anyway, this is a very effective CD. I just wouldn't suggest listening to any of his materials at the beginning of a day because they're so relaxing(I cannot state that enough). This would actually be perfect for unwinding at the end of a long day.

He is very popular on eBay. Over 8,500 satisfied customers -- 100% positive feedback.
Great material. Great artist.
Will buy from again.


title: Looooooove this album!

text: These guys are great!  Seeing them live is best, but at least with a CD you can hit "repeat" again and again!


title: New discovery

text: I had heard of the late Ms Dyble by her association with early Fairport Convention and the embryonic King Crimson, Giles Giles and Fripp.  But I had never heard her solo work, and boy did I miss out.  Better late then never.  I've heard three of the albums, all good, but this one's the best so far.  One reviewer called it "space folk", and that's the perfect description.  Tons of atmospheric keyboards, mixed with folky melodies creates a sort of space-prog-folk hybrid that I just absolutely love.  Can't think of anything else like it.  So sorry she's checked out of this mortal plane, but I'll be hunting the rest of her releases.  Really looking forward to them!


title: Not to my tastes

text:
Boy oh boy, I wished I liked this more.  Going off all the "lost prog classic" accolades it gets, never mind a "mellotron classic" (my favorite instrument) I was really primed for something exceptional.  Well, let's start with positives . . . . it's EARNEST.  You can tell the musicians are putting their all into it.  The musicianship is good.  It's a good sounding and well mixed recording.  That's it for the positives.  The negatives - I just finished listening to it and there's not one track I have the slightest interest in hearing again.  Some are downright annoying (not a fan of the vocalist).  And it's really anemic melodically.  It's chock full of proggy "fiddley bits" but they don't coalesce into anything or build to a climax or resolution.  Comparisons to Genesis I don't see at all, and while there's some echoes of Yes they don't have the compositional moxie of that band.  As for mellotron, well yeah, it's there but not in great heaping amounts and played in a fairly conventional and uninspired way.

I'm glad it has it's fans and wish the band well.  Just not my stripe of prog.

text: I was fortunate enough to see Broken Sunday live at Grand Valley State University. My friend set up the band's performance there so I got to meet them all and have them autograph my CD. This band is amazing. There aren't too many tracks on this first CD, but they are all fantastic. Be sure to check out brokensunday.com for updates on concert schedules and other info on the band. If you like bands like Linkin Park or Hoobastank, you should definately check this one out!


title: do not buy

text: cheap, cheap, cheap, from packing to CD quality, everything is cheaply made. even stacked 2 CDS together in a single sleeve. More like someone put it together in a garage cheap. Do not buy!!!!!


title: Interesting

text: Learned a few things I didn't know.  It is well worth listening to.  Hershey Felder is a good story teller.


title: Fantastic Play and Music!

text: I remember my dad having this on CD when I was a kid and my sister and I were just recently talking about it so we both set out to find it. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find it on CD but was able to order a used cassette. The music in this play is phenomenal and has a great message. It's a very positive and relaxing atmosphere and listening to the students progress on this journey into finding out what a friend is couldn't be any better. If you have the chance to pick this up, do so!


title: Great reading

text: I bought this audiobook to listen to in my car during my commute, and I'm very glad I did. I think Joss Ackland was a great choice for a narrator, his voice is really demon-y! It's a great book, and a great reading!

Ronnie said this was created to help remember his years of playing dance floor filled Texas honkytonk bars.


title: Great product for the long time fan ..

text:
For a 76 concert ( actually two concerts for the price of one ), these are pretty good. There are better concerts from this year , especially the ones he did in the short concert tour at the end of December,  but these two here Are not that far behind. Best songs "And I Love You So", "Hurt", "Steamroller Blues".
The cd also comes with a nice little 8 page booklet , in which one can see a Healthy  looking Elvis and not the fat Elvis the myth will have you believe he was the last 4 - 5 years of his Life.
I Will say though that this is not the first  release that a  non fan or a brand new fan should invest in, for those I will recommend the concerts from Madison Square Garden in 72 or the Aloha From Hawaii from 73 and his return Memphis concert from 74.


title: Still the king of music.

title: Complete Oscar-nominated score!

text: Oscar-nominated score here is one of Jerry Goldsmith's BEST--and a real emotional roller coaster of a ride, which of course rallies and  is  served up a lot better in  tandem,  if you've SEEN the movie;  MUCH better, then,  if you LIKE the movie-.( and naturally  ALWAYS better that way when listening to ANY MOVIE SOUNDTRACK ALBUM). There SHOULD  be more of us, I Imagined, who  like  MOVIE MUSIC ,  A real astonishment for me was  knowledge of OLDER, CLASSIC FILM-MUSIC ALBUMS having RELEASE OF only 3000 units!  . And since this 2-DISC ALBUM is a mere 1500 unit-release, it's a nice comfort to know that there might be 1499 other souls who  collect this sort of thing--but such a small number of fans is really perplexing..!?!  This music from THE SAND PEBBLES is  extraordinary excitement--on it's own!

For this fan, Ricky Nelson and James Burton really laid down the REAL Rock and Roll sound more than anyone else. ..and nothing has changed my LOVE for this TIMELESS MUSIC .Sure do miss these good men. LOVE THE SONGS!


title: This is not 'Banjo Special'

text: Don't waste your money.  Although 'Banjo Special' is pictured, it is actually 'Banjoist' that is being sold. Don't get me wrong, 'Banjoist' is a wonderful CD and makes an excellent introduction to Buddy's Music.


title: There is supposed to be a signature from heralbum cover and there isn’t any signature on it at all.

text: It’s skipping somewhat and I don’t like that very much there’s supposed to be a signature on the album cover from Selena Marie Gomez on the album cover. That I’m not happy about that at all. For almost 100 dollars. And there is supposed to be her signature on it please do what you say your going to do.


title: Van Hagar, standing on top of the world.  Excellent!

text: The best Van Hagar concert ever.  The energy in that Fresno concert was so high, you'd feel electrified just by listening. Lots of superb extended improvisation by both Sammy and Eddie which makes these versions of the VH songs so unique!  Plus a cover of The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again".  Whoa.  If you've worn out your VH CDs, this is a must listen.


title: Unsuspected Hitmaker

text: No-one knew Genesis' drummer would turn out to be a one-man hitmaking machine.  He's like the Paul McCartney of the 80s - just a little more sincere-sounding.  All of his heartbreak, often left alone in his house with a drum machine and a piano after the divorce, poured into the music of these stellar songs.  The music is accessibly pop and occasionally borders on cliche, but at the same time, certified as timeless.


title: Worth the price

title: The Hendrix set

text: Paul Rogers and company ripping through 5 of Hendrix songs live. A short set that catches fire from the get-go.


title: POLYPHONIC PRAYER

text: Great hard blues that come thundering in your ears. Never heard of this artist till I started a search for some blues music. the organ playing is top-notch as well as all the other instruments. Eric is the real deal. Don't hesitate if you like blues-rock. this one is a winner that will surely get you motivated on those lazy mornings.


title: Highly recommended

text: Great beats that send you across the earth. if you like music that will bring you into a trance this might be for you. I really enjoy this one. Highly recommended.


title: Love Amy

text: Not as good a "Legacy" But always love Amy.


title: As Hoped-For

text: The CD and conventional plastic case arrived in great, new condition.  It ripped accurately in 16bit-44.1kHz and also 32bit-176.4 kHz resolutions without a hiccup, using dBpoweramp.  The band was supposed to be best before the tragic death of Duane Allman, and this may well be representative of that.  I completely get why "At Fillmore East" is considered one of the best live albums ever made, by any artist.  I love this one, and I don't usually even like live albums.  The lead guitar is jaw-dropping, and the extended cuts leave me craving more.  It's at the pinnacle of old-time rock 'n roll as far as I'm concerned, reminiscent of the best small concerts I was lucky enough to hear in the 60's at San Francisco's original Fillmore (West) and Avalon Ballroom.  I'd say the other positive reviews that motivated my purchase are spot-on.  If you are interested enough to have read this, just buy it and enjoy.


title: Great memories from the 90's

text: I remember seeing them at the Alaska State Fair in the 90's and buying this CD back then.  I'm so glad I found another copy.


title: Must have!!

text: Beautiful music!!!  Probably should have purchased 2 cd's because I may wear this one out soon!!  Highly recommend for music lovers!!


title: Compelling, GREAT music!

[[ASIN:B000I5X1S0 No Denying]]

These songs are REAL-- I've never heard anything like them! Well, she kind of reminds me of Linda Ronstadt meets Celine Dion, a touch of Anne Murray and Amy Grant-- but more passionate. You'll listen from beginning to end and then again and again. Got to have it.  My favorites are "This Day/Blessing", "While It is Day", and the Alison Krauss styled "Billy's Train".  The tribute to her late sister, with the vocals on that song-- are haunting. Had to cry-- but still listened. "Momma Would Be Proud" really got me, too. I really felt her pain-- and she seemed to feel mine. MUST HAVE.


title: Great

text: Was great!!! Very fast and perfect quality so I am super happy with this transaction and I will be more than happy to buy from you again


title: value

text: I thought I'd be receiving numerous cd's due to the cost.  $80+ dollars for one used CD???  No, total scam.


Crohinga Well

Liberation Thru' Hearing is something completely different. It's a recording project from an Austrian musician called Heinz Reitmann. He's a multi-instrumentalist, and together with a few befriended musicians, he already recorded the LP "Der Berg" under the group name Reitingmusic. The LP is an instrumental, jazzy / cosmic album that came out on the local Die Mühle label (now deleted). Reitmann is very much impressed by the Tibetan Book Of The Dead, thousands of years old magical texts passed down by word of mouth and compiled into a book by Tibetan monks. They are intended as a guide to the mysteries beyond, for the dying and the dead. These writings became very hip in the sixties since they were (and still are!) used by takers of LSD to navigate them safely through their trip. Timothy Leary made a lot of publicity for this technique. Reitmann has a friend, Sepp Wiener, who came up with the idea to combine parts of the Tibetan Book Of The Dead with a background of both Western and Oriental, ethnic music. And so it happened: Sepp Weiner reads five excerpts from the English version of the famous book (with a thick, very charming German accent) while Reitmann took care of the music. For the backing of two tracks he used part of the "Der Berg" LP while the rest is a mix of newly recorded music and ethnical sounds registered in a Buddhist monastery in Nepal. This is not a rock album but something special you either like a lot or are completely indifferent about. I must say I think it works very well: the droning effect of the recited spiritual text with spacey keyboards and Tibetan bells, horns, etc. can get quite psychedelic under the right circumstances. This CD only release (five tracks / 40 minutes) is a reissue of an original cassette, privately pressed about three years ago. The CD contains a 12-page booklet with beautiful artwork, informing you about all aspects of the Tibetan Book Of THe Dead. A well-recommended, completely out-of-this-world (and into the next! ) release.

The Prisoner

People said that Delerium were crazy to release this brilliant record. It's spaced-out mantra provides a brilliant vehicle for the incantation of selected excerpts from the "Tibetan Book Of The Dead". The shamanic chanting seems at first to be a little too much - this perception changes however as the record becomes increasingly compelling. Liberation Through Hearing is hypnotic and full of surprises and perhaps as close as the record-buying public can get to pagan worship. Initial reservations are swiftly replaced by a gasp of appreciation as the full power of the album manifests itself. The album has become a firm favourite on our shelves.

Expose

How to describe this? Let's first consider the music: although it doesn't say exactly who plays on the album, one may hear synths, percussion, flutes, sax, drums, bass, guitars, plus some Eastern instruments like dholak, tambora and sitar. The music varies between something akin to Saddar Bazaar meets Ashra in techno-land to more funky space-rock variations on repeating themes. Loops and other studio gimmikery are used as well, but overall the music - considered on it's own, stands strong as background music goes, keeping the project in a constant state of forward motion. On top of this musical bed we have some guy with a strong German or Austrian accent reciting parts of the Tibetan Book Of The Dead in a steady monotone stream of consciousness; this goes on through the entire album, with almost no purely musical breaks. For this listener it becomes really tiresome after a few minutes into the first track (of five), though it certainly may be of some greater value for those who want to use the album for meditation purposes, or something else like that. At any rate, file under very unusual.

Hawk U.S. Time & Space

This self titled disc is very strange and cool at the same time. Although I wasn't blown away completely by all the tracks; "The Root Verses Of The Six Bardos" is unquestionably a masterpiece. The music is varied and unusual but the lyrics are drawn from the Tibetan Book of the Dead. This makes for at least some meaningful and contemplative listening.


title: Another great CD by Linda Perry

text: I have been a fan of Linda Perry's sensual voice and thoughtful lyrics since I first heard the 4 Non Blonde's cd. I loved her cd 'In Flight' and tracked down this cd although it it out of print. I do not understand why this cd has not been re-released. It is a potent collection of songs that offer the drive, humor, imagery and soul that she brings to her best material. Her songs range from introspective ballads to driving passionate songs.She also has a great band backing her. Linda Perry is a gem!


title: you will fall in love with it

text: If you can ever find this LP or be lucky enough to hear it, you will fall in love with it. Every song is a blessing. From The Songs to the Singers, you will find none better. Ernie"the little giant" Phillips,Big Jim, Foxy, Ray Reese, Ed Crawford, Wayne Maynard. They are & always will be The Kingsmen .


title: A Hit!

text: A friend has wanted this for a long time.  She's computer-free, so she came here and we found the song she wanted and ordered the CD.  It arrived quickly and her husband says she hasn't stopped playing it -- or smiling -- since.
