title: Some Stains on this Album

text:
This album zooms off with a great start. The first song "Neon Theme" is a great instrumental intro. The following three songs are quite catchy and good as well. "Dream Cars" has a simple yet catchy drum beat and reminds me a little bit of the new Keane album. The next song "I Tod Her On Alderaan" has a Gary Numan (get it the guy who did the song "Cars") synth vibe and feel to it. "Raquel" has a repetitive (slash) haunting feel that will "stick" in your head - in a good way.

But the reason why I give this album 3.5 stars, is that the rap / hip-hop songs on the album are pretty wretched and are unneeded. Don't really want to know or care about the reason(s) for doing the rap songs. Also, the 3.5 stars because of Gruff Rhys voice (the singer from Super Furry Animals) who sings the songs that aren't rap/hip-hop. Why is Gruff's voice a negative to the album, well if you aren't a fan of his voice, then you might not enjoy the rest of the album. Now don't get me wrong; I'm not dissing Gruff's voice (in fact I like SFA; especially the song "Rings Around the World") but at times it can get a little annoying. And with the bothersome rap songs followed by a Gruff song for the last half of the album - this is what stalls this album out. In other words good singles and a good beginning for the album but then it swerves off the road for the second half. Please see the two exceptions on the last half of the album below

 For the beginning and for these two later songs in the album; you should at least give this album a spin. : "I Lust You" has a super catchy synth beat and some sexy and sultry guest vocals by Cate Le Bon. "Belfast" again has a 80's / Gary Numan feel to it that is worth a listen.

title: A Bonefide First Rate Jazz Singer

text: What is this doing in a fire sale for less than two bucks?  This singer is as good as anyone who ever attacked a standard.  The band is smoking, the singer swings her tail off and if I didn't already own a couple of copies of the cd I'd buy this one.  This singer belongs in the ranks of Carmen, Betty and Ella.


title: A CD of distinguised people, n author, describing the book.  Super background music n sounds!

text:
Updated 7-30-2015, the night tonight will have a blue moon.

This is about 40 minutes long of dialogue about the book, Bless Me, Ultima.  Distinguished authors and persons, and the author himself, read excerpts from the book and discuss it.
There is wonderful guitar and vaquero noises n music in background that sounds very local to the area in Eastern New Mexico, on the Llano n Pecos Rivers, and to where I live now.  I used to live on the Pecos River in Carlsbad, New Mexico, and we'd swim the length of our property before having lunch on the patio overlooking the river, and kayak up and down it, too.  My mother brought kayaks to Carlsbad and San Angelo, Texas!
The first two sentences are read when this CD starts, it just enraptures you, the writing of the author is so beautiful!
Ultima is the grandmother of a little boy in a tiny town who is the curendura, the healer.
Hearing the CD again tonight makes me want to get the movie and watch it.


title: A Change in Rain

text: This album has some new sounds from artist Rain.  The difference in music style was noticeable immediately.  I liked some of the album's song and others grew on me.  Anyone who loves Rain should experience this new thrill from a fine artist.


title: Rain

text: Since Rain is very special to me, I continue to buy anything about him, especially his music and videos.  If you like Rain, then everything you can get about him is good.


title: Stardust by Pat Boone

text: The songs are incredible and his voice was at its peak. If you like Pat Boone, you need this in your collection.


title: My dad loved it!

text: Absolutely fabulous gift! My dad loved it!!


title: Audible Happiness

text: Love, love, absolutely love this album.  I’m an AA fan in general and listen to them all the time.  I usually listen to a mix of my favorites from several albums to keep from getting to used to the rotation; but, I’ve been listening to this non-stop for weeks.  I feel like AA writes the changing soundtrack to my ideal life...always positive and upbeat: audible happiness.


The 2nd CD is blank.  I didn't get around to trying it until a couple days when I discovered there was nothing on it.  I know it's past the return date but could I just exchange it for a good one.

title: Great selection my kids love them

text: My kids love this selection


Tom Russell is clearly one of America's leading songwriters as well as an accomplished performer. For the life of me, I can't understand why he is not considered a superstar; but as a consolation, it does give me a little warm feeling to know about him while others are simply not aware. If you've never purchased a Tom Russell CD, this would be an excellent start to your collection.


title: Perfect cd

text: Loved it


title: I like it!

text: Very nice album for Christmas.  Not your ordinary bunch of carols.


title: Fast shipping. The album come with photo card. ...

text: Fast shipping. The album come with photo card. A must-have for anyone who wants to discover BTS music and their Wings era. High-quality and well-produced music from all members of the group.


title: It's the Band -- It's Hot

text:
Some of the Band's finest studio work was done after they did the Last Waltz, finished their Capital contract, Robertson left the group. This album is a great example of The Band, sans Robbie, performing live. Excellent guitar from Jim Weider, and from the Cate Brothers (Btw, the Cate Brothers were in Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks back when Levon joined the group before Robertson came on board.) Helm, Danko, Hudson and Manuel all come to the fore a little bit more, a bit less inhibited, than in the pre-Last Waltz days. Overall the music is infused with a little more rhythm and blues flavor, a bit closer to the style(s) of the Levon Helm Band as it performs nowadays. But there is plenty of the classic Band tunes here, given great presentations. Danko's bass is lively yet sophisticated. Levon was still practicing his busier drumming style back in 1983 -- just superb and both full of energy. And Levon's vocals are at their prime. Manuel's vocals are a bit more raw, but very emotional and expressive.

It would be ten years before The Band would produce the 3 post-Robbie studio albums -- some would argue they are among The Band's best along with Big Pink and the self-titled album. So the collection of tunes here are not new tunes (Band tunes and rock covers). If you don't mind Robbie's unique guitar work supplanted with lively organ and some other excellent guitar work Weider, Cate and Cate), and you can accept tunes by other composers in place of new tunes by Robertson, this is The Band performing live in full vigor and style.

The recording quality is reasonably good for a concert -- more echo and less "up-close" definition than a studio recording, so not as good as modern concert recordings can be but pretty good for 1983. So maybe you call it only 4 or 4 1/2 stars for that reason -- but no me; it's The Band, and they're smokin' on great covers and Band tunes. For The Band fans, lovers of roots rock, Americana music, good ol' rock 'n' roll, this something more is worth having.

title: Five Stars

text: GREAT MUSIC


title: quite a saving

text: Philips collected/published everybody's favorite B's piano sonatas played by a beloved Beethoven pianist with an affordable price.  Each person has a preference about who plays what....but I am staying with what I grew up with.  Alfred Brendel brings out what (I imagine) a willful German composer created with his strong method.  No sentiment or excessive fluency that shows the pianist's technical supremacy is present.  I love it when musicians play for the composer rather than for themselves.

title: Mike Clifford!

text: I loved this guy back in the 60's. when he was in the top 10, and I still enjoy listening to him now.


title: Music to paint by....

text: I used this CD for my grandchildren to inspire painting, to use while painting.  It encourages freedom of expression and discourages any conversation, just concentration on what they are painting.


title: Santa Lucia

text: This item was so detailed and cute.  I've actually been using my International Santa collection in my classroom.  The children love it!


title: Classic Halford!!

text:
It's hard to believe more than a decade has passed since Rob roared back on to the scene. The original incarnation of the band is still the best. Once Pat Lachmann left, things weren't the same. (as evidenced by the last album, which was very sub-par and didn't compare to Resurrection or Crucible..at all).

This CD is a steal. You get the perfect mix of Priest, Fight and Halford stuff. Stained Class???? I just about died when I first heard them play it live. Priest (despite being my favorite all-time band) was never bold enough to add classics like this to their tours. Ever. It has always been a sticking point with me. For whatever reason, Rob  was a lot more adventurous with Halford and it paid off. I've always hated that someone in Priest always felt they were slave to a handful of "hits" when they had a 30+ year catalog of great music.

This is a must-have for all Priest/Halford fans....and all metal fans!!!! THIS is metal at its core. The only thing that would be better is if we can get a show from the short-lived Crucible tour. There is virtually nothing out there from that tour.


title: Wonderful addition to my CD collection

text: Vera Lynn sings like an angel, and it was great hearing all those WW II era songs again.


title: The Very Best of Kate Smith is a great addition to my music CDs.

text: The brochure included in the set described Kate Smith as a National Treasure.  Such an interesting person, and such a magnificent voice.  My favorite songs were included in this set.


title: Five Stars

text: Great music, great CD.  Am enjoying it immensely.


I mixed up the description for this CD with another one, and this is instrumental only.  The music is very good, but I always prefer hearing the words. Not the fault of the distributor.  I'll be more careful to read the description of products in the future.


title: 5 stars for the music, DVD is a woman's voice.

text: This set contains a lot of original songs - the CDs are Soler's voice. The DVD is not the Cri Cri's voice though, but a woman's voice. The singing is nice, but it doesn't indicate on the product packaging that they used someone else's voice for the DVD. This should have been more clear. Neither the DVD nor CDs are state of the art, but it is good music for me to enjoy along with my bebecito. I'm glad I got the set, just a little bit disappointed about the DVD.

title: Really solid acapella quintet album

text: Really solid acapella quintet album from the late 90s.  Music varies from classic vocalese numbers like "Cottontail", "In A Mellowtone", and "These Clouds Are Heavy, You Dig?" to 70s educational kid's music to classic Broadway to then-current pop.

title: Line Dance Fever Vol 2 or Vol 11?

text: Line Dance Fever Vol. 2 is excellent however, the picture of this CD is for Line Dance Fever Vol. Eleven (11), which I do not own. I would like to buy it if I could clarify which one they are really selling. Without a listing of the tracks, I can't tell. Line Dance Fever Vol. 2 has a big number 2 in red on the front and has the following tracks: Macarena by the Groove Grass Boyz, I'm A Cowboy by Smokin'Armadillos, Ring of Fire by Kimber Clayton, Indian Outlaw by Tim McGraw, Breaking Hearts and Taking Names by David Kersch, To Be Loved By You by Wynona, Betty's taking Judo by Jeff Carson, Yippy TiYi Yo by Ronnie McDowell, A Little Bit of Honey by Baker and Myers and 10 more.


title: winter sports

text:
This contains one track that became a tradition in my family. It literally made us laugh until we couldn't breathe, and still does. Winter sports on Shady lane has to be the funniet winter story ever told.
Thanks Mike for that!
Love Love Love it. You haven't enjoyed winter fully until you hear it.


title: Five Stars

text: Great


title: Cream - Re-mastered

text: Not as advertised. I have not even played these but the packaging clearly states these are re-mastered. NOT AS DESCRIBED - in the offer. I have the vinyl of both. Am suspect of a CD re-master from an unknown source. Will be returning unopened. Also, other reviews of this product come up blank. Seems to be suspect.


title: Great

text: I love the way he sings hymns with such feeling.


title: What a voice, what a talent

text: Linda has been and is today one of the unsung jewels in the American Music scene.  Rock, Pop, Country and Mariachi, wow who would have known?


title: Lovely, evocative and lyrical. Music to really enjoy.

text: I heard one of the songs - "Can't Find My Way Home" on my local college radio station and was entranced. After reading about Steve's career and his styling I knew I had to purchase the album. A wonderful treat for the ears. If you like instrumental guitar, and appreciate a master's touch with delicate phrasing and lyrical playing you will enjoy this compilation. Music for candles, a fire in the fireplace and a good glass of wine or Scotch. Or just anytime!


title: Great collection

text: I have all the Tom Petty CDs, all the DVDs, a healthy bootleg collection....and still I enjoyed this 2 CD set. There are a few songs I would leave out and a few I would add, but mostly this 2 CD  is pure gold. Honestly, it could have been a 4 CD set and still not capture all of the great music TP has written, but these 2 CDs do not disappoint. I recommend this CD set enthusiastically.


title: Good album but sounds like a bootleg

text: The sound quality is a bit less than you find on a regular album, sounds more like a bootleg, but the music itself is good and if you like the first Montrose album you will like this.


title: a bit hard to find.

text: If you are a JJ Johnson fan, this is a great disk.


title: Fascinating

text: I bought this for my son who loves all things sourdough.  He loves it.


title: good music from my long ago youth, recording could use remastering

text: Love the old Moodys. This one is a classic. Sadly, while the recording is clean, it presents a stereo soundstage about 3" high. A modern remastering could open that up a lot, but only if the original tapes are still pristine. So enjoy the music, but know that it's a 60s recording put on CD with 80s technology, so it's kind of flat. And if you aren't an audiophile with a big expensive system, none of that matters a bit.


title: Amazing bells!

text: This CD offers amazing bell-like tones on the piano that sound like true carillons.  His piano style is beautiful, clean and clear.

Most of the content on this particular collection is filler at best and crapola at worst.  There are some gems on here though, thus the 3 star rating.  To make it easy for you, I have put a star (*) after the tracks that are worth listening to.  That way, it can help you determine whether it is worth purchasing for you.  Really, the best songs on here that you can't get elsewhere are "Santa's Yule Log" by Andy Dick, and "Sometimes You Have to Work on Christmas" by Harvey Danger.  The other songs that are absolutely great might be rare, but are not necessarily exclusive to here.  And if the list of songs are up now for this release on Amazon, don't be a jerk and click not useful for my listing, because when this was written, there was no track list, and the list you see is a result of me first putting this up here.  Have a good Christmas.

This CD has some legitimate hard-to-find tracks by many artists.  The most interesting of which is obviously "Christmas Song" by Weezer, from the deleted, OOP (Out-of-Print) Christmas CD they released.  The other song from that CD is found on the CD single of "Photograph", but this is the better of the two.  The other real song of note on here is "Santa's Creepy Secret" by Orgy, unavailable anywhere else at this time and very cool.  There are some other unreleased tracks of note worth listening to on here also.  But since there are lots of throwaway stuff (mostly stupid skit tracks made by the radio station KROQ), I have made it easy for you and put a star (*) next to the tracks that are worth listening to.  From this, you should determine whether or not this CD is worth buying for yourself.  Enjoy.  And don't say this review is not helpful and be a jerk.  It takes a lot to do the first complete track listing for these unlisted CDs.


title: Atlantis Healing Temple

text: I absolutely love this CD, the music just makes me relax and my mind travels to the most wonerful places you could ever imagine.  I play this when life has me so stressed out it's unreal and it just does the trick.


title: For serious thinkers only.

text:
Missler's work is for serious study, for people who want serious change. All of Missler's work is beyond the point where most
writers and "change agents" would go. He deals with issues that usually involve the life or death of nations. Many people are not
ready for that.Usually folks listen to this kind of material after a tragedy, but the unerstanding of these issues can prevent those
tragedies.

title: I got to seethe HBO live version of this many years ago

text: I bought this because can not find a DVD version of the concert that it came from. Why? It was a HBO special so that doesn't make sense, well I saw the live version of which the next night they edited out a few lines. I thought that was silly as some of their comedians say far worse than she did.


title: Uplifting music

text: If you love old school salsa, you will love this album. I can't get enough of #9 track with Victor Manuel.  Mr Ortiz rocks that trumpet!! It should have won the Grammy


title: the voice of an angel

text: It's been years since I heard Danielle Licari's beautiful voice.  Still a joy to listen to!


title: I Must Be A Sinner, Cause I Love "7 Deadlee Sins!"

text: Seven years before Lil Wayne decided to blend rock and rap, Deadlee's debut record injected a thick dose of hard rock all over this seminal, influential project.  Eight tracks merging rock, hardcore rap, elements of dance and latin music, and spoken word reveal a mind that's on overload with creativity and fresh ideas.  Today Deadlee is regarded as the foremost practitioner of hardcore homothug outhiphop, and this is the record that set him in motion.  He had the guts to be as upfront, crazy and profane as he wanted to be, and the result was music that still sounds avant garde all these years later.  Standout tracks include the vampire drenched "Baby Be Bop" ('who's here i'm here you're here"); questioning and furious throw down "Straight;" his tour-de-force collaborations with Drastiko of Salvimex, "La Realidad" and "Marathon;" and my favorite, "Carnival In My Mind," which has become one of his signature songs.  Is he rapping about being arrested?  Is he fantasizing?  Is he in the midst of a heavy scene?  The music and chorus are irresisitible and hot, and like all the cuts on this landmark recording, have you going within and listening to your own reactions to this heady mix of sound, special effects and riotous rap.  A great CD and the harbinger of exciting things to come from Deadlee.


title: A Wonderful Journey

text:
I bought the book, AGINCOURT, when it was first released and enjoyed reading it. Bernard Cornwell is a gifted story teller. I recently wanted a couple audiobooks to accompany me on a long trip and from the list of available books, I selected this one, knowing I'd be trodding on a well-worn path. I'm thrilled to say that the exquisite narration of the book brought it all back with even more flourish and deeper enjoyment than when I read it the first time. Great narration simply adds another level of entertainment and I was not disappointed.

For those of you who are interested in the book itself, there are great reviews I am not going to try and compete with. However if you're even CONSIDERING the purchase of the audiobook, I urge you to take the leap. It's the story of an archer in the service of King Henry V, who crosses the channel and fights in the war to regain English possessions in France. But it's more than that. It's a saga of the times that Bernard Cornwell excels in writing. The characters POP off the page or in this case, from the audiobook. You'll find yourself not wanting to stop for fuel as you travel and listen because you want to continue enjoying the story.

title: Brazilians At Best...

text: First of all, to clear the air, so to speak, this duo are both from Brazil.  I don't usually care a whole lot for "Italian Disco" as some have pinned this type of music as.  I do love this album.  Not a bad song on the entire LP.  The standout tracks, in my opinion are "Soul Transplant", "Deadly Pong Of Love" and "Regret".  Those three are my favorites.  I do agree that this is mostly Electronic/Synthpop.  They have been viewed on Youtube more and more as time goes by (via their videos, etc).  I highly recommend this LP/CD.

text:
As a saxophonist, I've always enjoyed hearing Boots Randolph play.
I did get to hear him in person more than once.
This album was a replacement for me. I accidentally broke my original set.
I'm enjoying hearing these songs again...


title: not as good as Visionary Landscapes

text: Visionary Landscapes was Mr. Arzruni's first album of Hovhaness piano pieces, recorded in 1991, almost 30 years before this one, and, in my opinion, it is the far superior.  The  piano pieces are much more interesting and the sound isn't so harsh.  Just my opinion of course, but you can listen to this entire album on YouTube and make up your own mind.  If you want just one of Arzruni's recordings of Hovhaness piano solos, then pick Visionary Landscapes.  If quantity is a consideration, then you should know that this more recent recording has about 30 minutes more music.


title: very abstract

text: I bought this at Tower Records 30 years ago.  It's best listened to with headphones because the dynamic range is very broad.  Not for the faint of ear.


title: some good harmonica

text:
from Wikipedia: "In October 1968, while touring the United Kingdom, he recorded the album Southern Comfort with the guitarist Martin Stone (previously with the band Savoy Brown and later a member of the band Mighty Baby)."

I like tracks 1, 5, 7 the best for the strong harmonica.


title: give me a Vol. 4!

text:
You might be disappointed to learn that this third volume of the Goldner Quartet's survey of the complete string quartets of Peter Sculthorpe will not complete your collection.  The Goldner Quartet promised a Volume 4, over 5 years ago, when this volume was released.  Supposedly, the fourth volume would have Nos. 12, 13, 18, and perhaps a smattering of lesser works.  But it looks like the Goldner's were funded to make a DVD instead; they might never get around to the 4th volume.

If don't want to wait, then the gaps can be filled by buying Island Dreaming (contains no. 13) by The Brodsky String Quartet and also The Complete String Quartets with Didjeridu by the Del Sol Str. Qtr.  These two purchases, along with the three extant Goldner volumes, will give you all of Sculthorpe's 18 string quartets, and most of his other quartet noodlings.  The 2-CD Del Sol set is a must have for down under music fans, even though it duplicates two of the quartets found here, because the didgeridoo adds so much to sounds of these quartets.  It gives the music an indelible stamp of  being Australian music.

This CD is still in print and is available from Presto Classical for less than twenty dollars.

title: Five stars for 5 albums is 25 stars.

text:
Like many great bands, I started by getting a compilation, but wanted to hear more from Ritchie Blackmore and company, so first picked up 'Bent out of Shape' and the last record 'Stranger in Us All' with Doogie White.
I then bought this even though it has  'Bent out of Shape' for the other four records since it was a fantastic deal.
Yeah, you do not get the Dio sung 'Rainbow Rising', but you do get two other Dio records, one Graham Bonnet, and the two Joe Lynn Turner sung records.  I like tolisten to them all.  Graham Bonnet's 'Down to Earth' is my favorite with 'Bent out of Shape' a close second and then Dio's work.  But many people prefer Dio.  There are no liner notes, but you get the 5 cds in cardboard sleeves with the original album art.  Hours of great music to listen to for anyone that likes melodic rock.  Enjoy.

text: I grew up listening to the Motown sound from Detroit as a kid. I had this album.


title: Have you forgotten how brilliant Erroll Garner was on the piano?!

text: This box set is an absolute gem clearly demonstrating a pianist who was extraordinarily gifted. The music is full of joy, happiness and zest. Intense media has done a tremendously excellent remastering on these 10 CDs. I first noticed their beautiful effort on the Rosemary Clooney box which I hadn't anticipated that sound would be a knockout level of restoration! Anyway back to Erroll, the first CD is his his live Concert by the Sea which is well known and loved. Whether he plays fast or slow it's all beautifully done. This is anytime music that goes down easily regardless of your mood. I like to think of it as drinking music. So what you get is standards, jazz, broadway pieces and originals. On CDs 8/9 the music was recorded in an apartment during WW2. All considered this is a lovely collection including some occasional endearing grunts from ER. Want to perk up your mood, this is just what the doctor ordered! If you enjoy great piano playing in a jazzy vein, this is a can't miss purchase.....


title: Jo seamlessly dissolved the distinction between popular and jazz oriented music

text:
Jo was such a beautiful singer who smoothly and effortlessly covered all the bases very much like Patti Page. Tremendous self mastery that made everything they sang so fluid. Regarding this double CD, the first one is ballad oriented and flat out pretty. The second CD is more up tempo and jazz oriented. Jo singing "Midnight Sun" is especially a knockout performance that easily demonstrates how good she was as only just one example of many.

I've only listened to this offering once and I can say the sound is very good overall. The musicians supporting Jo are excellent too. For Jo fans, this is a safe investment and rewarding as well!


title: A brilliant conductor who's been largely forgotten

text:
Before purchasing this particular box set, I read reviews on Amazon and likewise on YT including listening to specific EVB performances. As a final step, I engaged David Hurwitz the editor of Classics Today. I said to him that Van Beinum gets the highest ratings and great praise everywhere I look. His speedy response was: "He was a great conductor." So, there you have it from a very knowledgeable source.

I went ahead and bought this generous set. I'm over halfway through it and it's a wonderful treasure chest. Although famous for his Brahms he really brings out the best regardless of what he's conducting. For instance, I hadn't heard much of Bruckner outside of a bit of sampling on YT. Hearing EVB's Bruckner was such a fantastic introduction to this composer which allowed me to understand what the man was all about. I also thought this conductor was especially good with Debussy too. His gift I would say was with his self out of the way, he lived the music he was conducting that resulted in great performances.

For anyone considering a purchase, the main consideration would be do you like good mono as I do? This is largely mono except for some late 50s stuff. On CD16 performances go back to 1940 and 1941 but they still sound fine to me. I read a reviewer who said he had many of this label's box sets and he said the sound was all well done. I would agree assuming this is the typical sound experience I'm hearing. Also, I should mention I didn't get a booklet, but there's info on the bottom of the box. Plus, if you go to the label's website, there may be something to download if you wish.

In closing, very pleased I bought this large chunk of a gifted conductor's regrettably short life. Moreover, I added EVB's Mozart and Brahms Eloquence brand CDs to supplement what was missing here. And on a funny note, yes of course David Hurwitz had this box set ("I have it") was his response to me!

text: great album

text: perfect


title: Not matters what... Elvis is the Best!

text: Okay


title: Not a soundboard recording.

text: Don't let anyone fool you, the sound quality is mediocre at best. This is NOT an "excellent soundboard recording" but a better than average audience recording.  I WISH this was a soundboard recording because the concert was fabulous.  However, as with all audience recordings, the sound is in the distance, not in the foreground.  If you want a very good Zeppelin live recording, try the Southhamption University disc, or Windy City Adventure, or Destroyer.  If you own ANY soundboard recording Zeppelin concerts, you will find audience recordings to be disappointing. In regards to the sound, it is flat with little separation between guitar notes. For chords, sounds O.K., but once Jimmy starts to fly its just a mess.  If you play this for someone who isn't familiar with the songs, they will hardly be able to make out the notes. Honestly.  For historic purposes and for Zeppelin fanatics, it's nice to have. For anyone else, you'll be disappointed. Just because its considered a "classic bootleg" doesn't mean its a good recording. You'll listen to it once and never again.

title: Amazing!

text: I searched all over the internet for this CD finally lucked out this was a used ex-library rental.  excellent used condition.  I had never heard any of Tyler Burkum's solo material until last year when I stumbled upon it on Spotify via the Cactus Blossoms.  What a beautiful record!  catchy songs, clever tender lyrics, it's the kind of unassuming record that sneaks up on you.

text: Well, it's ok but not the best. I love the live televised ones much better. But I love Agnus Brown!


title: One of the best albums by one of the best jazz guitarists ever

text: Barney Kessel had the unique capability of being able to create individual chords for each separate note of a quickly executed riff.  He also put great feeling into his playing.  "Swinging Easy" is one of his best albums.

title: Want to hook your kids on jazz?

text:
Along with Vince Guaraldi's A Charlie Brown Christmas and A Boy Named Charlie Brown, this is the other album I turn to when it comes to introducing children to the world of jazz. The joy and delight on their faces when they connect what they're hearing with the movies they've seen is worth the price of admission alone.

Nice to see this new edition is print. The bonus cd with extra tracks is pretty interesting, as well.


title: Bootleg Paradisio

text:
If you've come this far, you're a hardcore fan, so let me make your day...

Swinging Pig Records first began in Germany some decades ago, and through an obscure loophole in European copyright law gained the right to distribute bootlegs of legendary concerts and various outtakes that we otherwise might never have had access to. What's more, Swinging Pig chose only the best shows out there for release, meaning we sometimes got concerts that sounded as good as an official release.

This is one such example of the brilliant work TSP has done over the years. Montreux's famed jazz festival hosted Pink Floyd in 1971 and the results were spread across a double album, about two hours worth of music. It's an amazing show... one of their best from this period and TSP's usual brilliant treatment shines through in rendering it to CD.

Think of it this way: The Swinging Pig is the Rhino Records of bootlegging.

Chances are, you won't find this CD on Amazon or even eBay (I got most of my copies overseas in a country where bootlegs are somewhat more common), but you may have more luck finding it as a download on any number of websites that accommodate the desperate and curious fan that can no longer sustain himself on the studio releases.

(to be continued)


title: If you love real Rock & Roll and great music from the ...

text: If you love real Rock & Roll and great music from the '50s, here is a CD just for you and it could be called some of the best of Sun Records. Even though Johnny Cash wasn't a R & R performer, nor was he a Country & Western singer, he was a big part of the R & R era & Sun records and this collection has Country, R & R & Gospel, of which makes for great listening pleasure.  For Elvis fans, they even included his first movie hit, "Love Me Tender", which was a joke on his fans as this was & is not a R & R song & it more than surprised every one that wanted to see & hear him play his music.  The good ole' days when music was fun & enjoyable, without all of those filthy lyrics that we are subject to nowadays.  Turn up the volume & let the good times roll.  +JMJ+


title: And Brenda not only Comes on Strong, but gets stronger & stronger with each song:

text: This DVD was taken from the VHS show: An Evening with Brenda Lee, of which I purchased at the same time from Amazon. Of course, I didn't know that it was the same video, but that's the way life is sometimes, with all of it's surprises. As usual, Brenda is in great form & if you are a fan of hers, this DVD will make your day. Brenda doesn't have great movements on the stage compared to some one like Tina Turner, but she does have a wonderful way with her songs & the timing of her, the background singers (they are fun to watch) & her band is unbelievable. This show was done way back in the early 70's which is why they are dressed with their bell-bottom clothes, but the music goes back into the 50's & 60's; and, even now, she still is COMING ON STRONG!  So get yourself this DVD, gather your children & grand-children around you as they most likely haven't heard real music & have a great time. +JMJ+

title: Arthur Conley past Sweet Soul Music

text: As a soul fan from the  1960's it was good to add some Arthur Conley. He had a brief fling at fame and his career is not documented as many of his contemperaries were. Have not been able to watch the DVD yet as it will not play on American DVD players. Certainly as a document of the soul era this CD is well worth purchasing.

title: This is my favorite CD!

text: This is my favorite CD!. Elvis was one singer I grew up hearing and I like his way of singing. He sings hymns and spiritual songs as if they are just for him. I sing along while I drive and know they are special songs to me. Great Collection for me to play often.


title: Nifty-Fifties Sounds

text: This baby-boomer loves the songs I heard as a teen. The CDs are in my car all the time for quick access to sing along while I run errands!


I loved this when I bought the cassettes, but they got lost over time. I managed to find the CD of Volume 1 a couple of years ago, but I never could find Vol 2. Now it's on Amazon for nearly $90! I would really like a copy, but I'm not for that price.


title: Didn't like it.

text: Couldn't listen to this. It freaked me out. I'm not into hypnotism. These people are scary. I gave it to my therapist, who had recommended it as a non pharmaceutical sleep aid. I much prefer drugs.

title: The Truly Wonderful Barbara Cook - Live In London Concert

text: The wonderful late Barbara Cook has provided us with a live album from her London concert that is just about (but not quite) as good as being there. The album contains 16 songs (some songs from the theater but others that are familiar classics from the American songbook). There isn't a bad song on this CD and the audience response is evident that they too are having a wonderful evening. There are audio clips for each of the songs on this album elsewhere on Amazon so, with a little bit of searching, you can check them out for yourself before deciding to make the purchase. If you're a fan of Ms. Cook then you will definitely want to add this album to your collection. Click here to see song titles, song samples and more price choices. [[ASIN:B0103JY2QK Live From London]]


title: Wonderful Classic Albums But Don't Over Pay (read my review)

text: Seven truly classic early Johnny Mathis albums beautifully transferred to 4 discs. This set was worth what I paid (less than $7 new) for the two albums of Broadway songs alone ("Ballads of Broadway" and "Rhythms of Broadway"). However, everything on these four discs is wonderful and should certainly appeal to, and satisfy, any Johnny Mathis fan. Before making your purchase run an Amazon search on the ASIN (just enter B00IROIBZC in the search block above) and you'll almost always find this 4 disc set available "new" for less than $10 from both domestic and international sellers.

title: Great 4 Song EP From Ruby Turner

text: A four (4) song EP - NOT A FULL ALBUM. Songs included are: "What Becomes of the Broken Hearted" Ruby Turner w/Jimmy Ruffin, "Still Waters Run Deep" Ruby Turner, "Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours" (Happy Mix) Ruby Turner & ""If Your Ready (Come Go With Me" Ruby Turner w/Jonathan Butler. Four really good tracks worth a listen by any fan of Ruby Turner. The addition of Jimmy Ruffin on track one and Jonathan Butler on the fourth track just add to this 4 song EP.


title: Especially Good If You're A "Friend of Kenny" .... (wink, wink)

text: I bought this album for one song ("Friends of Kenny") and it's been worth every penny I spent. I'm not a huge fan of Dame Edna but I truly enjoy original, clever and humous songs and "Friends of Kenny" is exactly what I was looking for. The album is more of an EP (four songs only) than a full set. I don't find the three other songs to be particularly entertaining but I got what I wanted with "Friends of Kenny" so am more than happy with the CD.


title: OK TV Movie Soundtrack But Not Worth Overpaying For

text: The Jerry Herman score for this made for TV movie musical is certainly nowhere near the level of the well known Herman scores  for such hit shows as "Hello Dolly", "La Cage Aux Folles", "Mame" or even his lesser known shows "Mack & Mabel" & "Dear a World". If it weren't for the star (Angela Lansbury) I'm not sure this CD would even be of much interest to even the biggest musical theater fans. There is nothing "wrong" with the score or CD but there is also nothing that makes seem very special. Yes, it's sometimes hard to find and often considered by some to be highly collectible, but good used copies can almost always be found for $25 or less here on Amazon. Before paying a ridiculous amount (some listing ask above $175) do a title search here on Amazon or enter the ASIN number (B000003G6W) in the search block. There are currently at least three seperate listings (not sellers but listings) for this identical CD (why Amazon why?) with a WIDE range of prices. If you just have to own this CD at least be careful that you not grossly overpay.


title: Maybe "Hidden" for a reason but certainly not all "Treasures".

text:
This album is for collectors and purist who absolutely must have everything Barry Manilow has ever recorded. One listen and you'll understand why these recording are, for the most part, previously unreleased alternate version and/or demos. There is very little here that meet the standards and quality of most of Mr. Manilow's terrific catalog of work.

To the best of my knowledge this has never been "officially" released in the USA and it seems easy to understand why. I'm not being critical of Barry's talent which, in my opinion, is superior but simply my belief that the tracks on this CD are not of the caliber or quality that one expects to find on an album by Barry Manilow. That said, if you feel that you absolutely must add this to your collection (and you actually might find something here to your liking) I'd suggest a low priced "used" copy rather than investing big bucks in a "new" one. I have included the track listing below:

1. Could It Be Magic (“Featherbed” Featuring B. Manilow)
2. Could It Be Magic
3. Mandy (Unreleased Original First Take)
4. Tryin’ To Get the Feeling Again (Unreleased Alternate Take)
5. This One’s For You (Unreleased Demo)
6. Can’t Smile Without You (Unreleased First Take)
7. Copacabana (1993 Remix)
8. The Old Songs (Unreleased Alternate Take)
9. Somewhere Down the Road (Unreleased Demo)
10. One Voice (from “Barry Live In Britiain”)
11. Brooklyn Blues
12. Give My Regards to Broadway (Unreleased Live Peformance)
13. If Tomorrow Never Comes
14. Another Life
15. The Best of Me

Note: Tracks 13, 14 & 15 appear to be "new" recordings and not alternate takes or demos although I cannot be absolutely sure.

title: Music For Lennon Sisters Fans

text:
If you are familiar with the Lennon Sisters then you much pretty know what you're going to get on this album and will probably not be disappointed. The 9 songs on the CD were complied from several earlier releases and somehow deemed the "Best Loved Melodies". Everything here is quite predictable with the exception of a what I would consider a strange arrangement of the beautiful "I Will Wait For You" from the move "The Umbrellas of Cherbough". The sister's version of "Ava Maria" is sung and talked and I've heard them do better versions but they more than make up for it with a heartfelt rendering of "You'll Never Walk Alone". This is a short (9 songs) CD and there are a number of other wonderful Lennon Sister recordings that either should have been included or at the very least replaced some of the lesser known songs presented here.

However, before you purchase this CD run an Amazon search (enter 014921301023 in the search block) to see if less expensive copies are available. For some reason this identical CD has been listed multiple times on Amazon (at a wide range of prices). The nine songs included are: "My Favorite Things", "Greensleeves", "I Will Wait For Your", "Goin' Out Of My Head", "Scarborough Fair", "Fascination", "Ava Maria", "You'll Never Walk Alone", & "Sentimental Journey".

title: Wonderful Album But Hard To Justify $100 Price

text:
"Capitol: From the Vaults Vol. 4 - Love Letters" is a terrific album containing 25 classic love songs recorded from the mid-40s through the late 50s by some of Capitol Records greatest artists. However, there is no way this album is worth $100+ (as currently being offered on Amazon) even to a hardcore collector. There are other collections is the Capitol "From the Vaults" series that are equally enjoyable and costing las little as $1 for a good condition used copy. If course supply and demand sets the price but every song in these Capitol collections appear on numerous other discs and are very difficult to classify as rare or even particularly hard to find.

title: 2 CD Set - 24 Song Track Listing

text: Always wonder how anyone could determine the "very best" of an singer with a catalog as extensive as Conway Twitty. There are 24 wonderful recordings included in this 2 CD set which are very representative of a long and fruitful career. However,  there are also lots of songs missing that many (myself included) would consider among Conway's "very best".

title: Schmalzy

text: I like Mike Bruce and his Cooper stuff but over half is garbage schmalz and not rock.  I taught his brother to fly back in the day and thought this would be a collector's item, but now, probably not.


title: Great Piano Music, of course

text: Am enjoying the three CD set of Liberace's music.  If you like his style, this is a great set to add to your collection.


title: Love their music

text: Love their music. Not easy getting CDs anymore. Perfect CD.

title: A plethora of hits by one of Canada's best known acts

text: "The Best Of Lighthouse: Sunny Days Again" features 16 greatest hits from one of Canada's best known imports. "One Fine Morning", Lighthouse's best known song here in the States, reached an impressive Top 30 on the Billboard pop chart in 1971. Some mighty fine Canadian Content selections make appearances here as well. In an ode to good times and backyard barbeque fun, there's "Sunny Days". "Pretty Lady" is wonderful and has a unique warmth and charm all its own. Lighthouse also displays a funky and soulful side in the tracks "Hats Off To The Stranger" and "You Girl', although the latter track can be overly repetetive. Man, talk about horns! Skip Prokop & Co. go at you full steam and at full throttle with every note played. Prokop's drumming skills are in top form in this excellent collection of songs. When you listen to this disc, you'll think you're listening to Lighthouse live and in the flesh! All the other selections on this disc not mentioned here are worth repeated listens as well. So, please, by all means, listen to this disc with the volume cranked up for best listening pleasure! If you like early Chicago (Transit Authority), Blood, Sweat & Tears, The Buckinghams, etc., you'll love Lighthouse! Don't miss out on this musical extravaganza. Buy your copy of "The Best Of Lighthouse: Sunny Days Again" today!


title: Disappointment by 85%

text: The Disk 1 was ok, but don't be thrilled !!,  Disk 2 was a waste of music and my money.  Full of unnamed songs.  A friend of mine heard Disk 2 play,....she made an ugly face at me.  For $20 the CD SUX.....WILL RETURN !!!

text: This is a great study I use as a therapist for foster and adoptive parents.  However, it is great for parenting in general.  I have no idea why it is $260 for a DVD!  That is ridiculous!  Do a search online and buy it from another vendor.  It is put out by Saddleback Resources through Rick Warren's organization.


title: All good!

text: All good!


title: olivias best songs

text: I have not heard a lot of these songs in years like Something Better to Do Let It Shine If You Love Me Let Me Know Let Me Be There and Sam along with others.  I have heard others like Have You Never Been Mellow I Honestly Love You You're the One That I Want Hopelessly Devoted to You Magic Xanadu more often.  This is a great cd. I enjoyed hearing all of these songs again.  You should get it.


title: Love Potion Number Nine

text: This is a great cd 💿. The Coasters were always funny like Yakety Yak Charlie Brown Along Came Jones and others like their little known version of the song Love Potion Number Nine which is on this çd. I had been looking for their version of that song for years. You should get this.


title: The  first Christmas  album I  owned

text: I  looked  for  this  for years after having it on 8-track-not to age myself-then  record  and then cassette but unforneanally without  Over The River And Through  The  Woods and the album closer  which is  We  Wish  You A Merry Christmas.  I looked for this on cd for  years and  found nothing  except  ones that had  songs from both of their  Christmas  albums on it-usually  out of  order  and with  some missing. Finally I found  one that  had all of  them on it but mixed  up  then later found one  that  had both  albums in order. Except that its a Chipmunks Christmas cd I  bought this blind thinking that  it was  both  albums mixed  up  again. Image my surprise when it  arrived and was exactly what I had on 8-track and  record. You should get  this . The Chipmunk  Song is worth  that alone .Merry Christmas


title: The Royal Guardsman and Snoopys Best.

text: I mistakenly  called a review  I  did for a similar cd The Guarsdmans Best. Or maybe its  not a mistake at  all or  I couldnt have  titled this one what I did which is a lot more accurate.  We  have  all four  of their  albums and  for those of  you who  bought the two cd  album Snoopy VS The  Red Baron with  Snoopy  And His Friends and  dont  like the  fact  that on  the latter album on that  cd we  have  36  seconds chopped off of Snoopy  VS The Red Baron  then let me assure you that when  you get  to that album on this two part cd we we  have the  whole song. We  also  have all five Snoopy and  Red Baron songs so  along with Snoopy VS The Red Baron we have The  Return Of The Red Baron Snoopys Christmas Snoopy For  President and The Smallest  Astronaut. We  also have  many  other  songs  that arent  about those two  and along  with  those  five I have many favorites like It  Kinda  Looks Like Christmas  The  Airplane Song  or My Airplane Bears Peanut  Butter Lil Red Ridin Hood Its  Sopwith Camel Time So  Right  To Be In  Love  The  Jolly Green Giant  Liberty Valence  Baby  Lets Wait  Biplane Evermore Alley-Oop  Sweeetmeats  Slide and  lots of  others including  comedy sketches for  the first three Snoopy  and  Red Baron songs The Story  Of Snoopy VS  The Red Baron The Story  Of The Return  Of The  Red Baron and The  Story Of Snoopys Christmas<br /> and lots more songs like I said. This is a very good cd.  You should get it.


title: Christmas Novelty  Songs

text: This  is a  good  cd of Christmas novelty songs.  Mel  Blanc and  Yogi Yorgurson and  both of  the songs  they  had on  here were in my opinion  the  four  best  on  the cd  although  Edd Byrnes  of 77  sunset  strip fame  did a good  one  and later one of  the original Coasters did another good one. There are also  three  that Bob  Rivers did under  a  different name each  time  and all three times also changed  the name of the sketch  from  what it was on  his original albums.  The best  one is the one  about Elvis. Then  theres at  least two which you  find on the  two cd  compilation Its Beginninng To Sound A Lot Like Christmas. Jerry  Lewis  has a  song on  there  to-two  if you  count the  one  with  Dean  Martin which closes out this cd. You should get this. Merry Christmas.


title: Even More 50s Hits

text: This is a very good album. It has a lot of good songs from the 50s like The Big Boppers Chantilly Lace Jim Lowes The Green Door Fats Dominoss Aint That  A Shame Danny and the JJrs At The Hop The Chordettes  Lollipop and many more.  You should get it.


title: More Good 50s

text: This is is good album. It has Dean Martins Memories Are Made Of This Rosemary Clooneys Hey There and Half As Much Mitch Millers The Yellow Rose Of Texas Perry Comos Wanted Nat King Coles Too Young Johnny Mathiss versioon of Smile and many more. You should get it.


title: Comprehensive Buddy

text: This Buddy Holly box set has all of his hits and every one of the other songs he did like Thatll be the Day Peggy Sue Oh Boy Everyday Its So Easy and among the ones that werent hits Moonglow although a good lot of them should have been. You should get this.


title: David The Chipmunks Seville

text: This David Seville cd is very good and very funny. All of theese songs are like The Trouble With Harry which he did under another alias. Theres also Witch Doctor The Chipmunk Song Gotta Get to Your House Alvins Harmonica among many others. You should get it.


title: 11 Million Of Us Want To KNOW!

text: NObody...noTHING...anywhere on earth is halfway amusing as these guys.  And what passes for "comedy" these days ("SNL?" oh, please...) is,  more than anything "socialism-lite."


title: So...what ARE these songs, specifically?

text: I read all these nice things about the blah-blah-"greatest Hits" blah-blah.  Anybody care to enlighten those of us just exactly WHAT those hits are?  I mean any good boots or is it all just rechanneled, refurbished, etc, stuff we already have?


title: What are they selling?

text: I mean, the 2-CD soundtrack is fairly ubiquitous, and I'll be glad when the movie itself is released so I can quit buying "Stones performance DVDs."  But, pray tell, WHAT is a "bonus E-movie cash b*** b** exclusive?"


title: Can YOU say..."milk?"

text: C'mon, ABKCO - give it a rest.  Those who..."know" already HAVE these myrid albums, and, what, "The Singles, etc," just didn't milk it enough for you?  Hey...as I said, we already HAVE these albums.  Give it a rest, please?


title: Best music

text: I love it and prefect


title: Elvis cd review

text: The cd came fast, it worked great, no problems, virtually perfect condition, I would buy again from this seller.


title: In My Head 2.0

text: This album takes an already great album ("In My Head") and adds six more good songs to it. The sound quality seems to be better so I'm guessing they may have re-mixed the original songs. Regardless, its very worthwhile. Of the new songs, I especially like "The Heart of Me".

title: High Live & Dirty LP Re-named and on CD....

text:
This may be the worst CD ever. It is a remake of the Nutmeg records, red vinyl High Live and Dirty LP from the early 80's. Yeah I know I rated it as 5 Stars. I'll explain in a minute. This is without a doubt the worst collection of Jimi Hendrix "music" ever. The session was taped in a New York night club in 1968 and like the title says Jimi must have been wasted that night. Very wasted! He misses every note and forgets every line to every song. Song is probably the wrong word to use, there are no songs here, just a drug and booze soaked jam session. His backing band is atrocious and it sounds like people keep jumping up on stage and joining his band's attempt to make something that sounds like a song. The comments caught on tape are pretty funny, you can just imagine the rowdy stoned out late 60's scene going down...you would probably appreciate this album alot more if you do some 60's style drugs. It's flat out awful.

Here is the good part. Jim Morrison was in attendence the night this was taped and he jumps up on stage and tries to join in. He is even more wasted than Jimi Hendrix if you can believe that. The song Morrison's Lament (also known as F.H.I.T.A.) is nothing more than a drunken Morrison rolling around the floor of the stage repeating the words " F*#k her in the assh@#le ". He changes it up a little by saying " F*#k her baby, in the assh@#le " a few times.

Back in the early 80's when I bought this album my buddies and I would sit around and get hammered listening to his good stuff like Axis Bold As Love or Are You Experienced...then after we were good and ripped we'd slap High Live and Dirty on....we could not stop laughing. I used to hurt myself laughing at F.H.I.T.A, we'd play that damn song over and over and over...and then eat about 100 bags of dorritos.

Yes the music sucks. But if you had a blast cracking up at over this album back in the day like I did you gotta get it just to play F.H.I.T.A on your buddy's phone answering machines.

I love Jimi Hendrix music...but that ain't what this album is all about. I guess for completists you'd have to buy it, and if you actually want to hear Hendrix and Morrison on stage together ( as awful as it turned out) well here is your ticket. There are rumors that Johhny Winter played in this jam session (Hendrix mentions his name) but Winter himself denies that he was there or ever even met Morrison. This albums blows unless you are looking for a laugh. That's the truth man...No s#@t!


title: great oldies album wish they didn’t censor it

text: great album sounds good but censored it come on they say worse on prime time tv


title: Beware buyers-this isint gregg

text: i was very excited my gregg russell family favorites came today i ordered at amazon they were'nt gregg russell they were ancient boring instrumental tunes. The service was fast the price was great. But it wasnt what i wanted i love gregg russell and this defently wasnt him. If your thinkig about buying a cd full of gregg songs this is not for you cuz you will be disipointed like i was.


title: Five Stars

text: thankyou


title: A good album

text: While not as good as Political Animal only one song here is on Political Animal.  That is Sleep of the just and a very good song.  Unfortunately this may not be available now.  If you want it and find it get it quick.  It will likely be expensive and disappear quickly.


title: Another good album

text: While Political Animal is their best album this album is good.  A couple of these songs are on Political Animal.  This album is still available so if you're wanting to get it do it now as their stuff is getting rare and a bit expensive.


title: Comes as a CD single or album

text:
The price of both of these are high.  The single has 3 songs Second Skin, Not My Time and The World is Almost At Peace.  Good songs but a bit expensive for 3 songs.
The album claims 12 songs and has an unnamed bonus song.  The cover on both are similar but this listing says CD single and the cover shown is the single.  Some albums have been found under this listing.  If you are interested in the album check with the vendor to be sure which one they have.
If you can't find or afford the price and don't have Political Animal get it as 4 of the songs on it are on this album although some of the songs are slightly different versions.
If you want something to go with Political Animal try Rob Hirst and Sean Sennett's Crashing the Same Car Twice.  That is a good pair and is a lot cheaper than Ghostwriters music and much easier to find.


title: Very good first album

text: This is Jud Strunk's first album.  No hits but it shows his early music was good and more albums was a good idea.  Someone should put his music on CD.


title: A lost gem

text: A new album of old music that is quite good.  There are songs with several different tempos and Dusty is good on all of them.  My favorite one is Haunted but most of them are good.


title: Only for hardcore fans

text: I like Peter Noone so I got the cassette as I did not want to spend the price<br />Of the album.  That was a good idea as this album pretty much is a waste of time.  I listened to it twice and only Nothing Left To Lose and Gone With The Wind were mildly listenable.  Not a good song on this as far as I am conserned.  Try Peter Noone with the Tremblers on Twice Nightly a very good album-it is much better.


title: MJ - This is a keeper!

text: I enjoyed this CD.  Also enjoyed the movie.  Is it his best work, probably not since it wasn't HIS production work, however, his death shocked us all and his trustees are giving us a decent CD.  Enjoy.


title: Keep the Memories of the Classic Pandoras and pass on this.

text:
I didn't buy a copy.  I got to hear it in its entirety, though.  Two original Pandoras albums:  It's About Time, and Stop Pretending, are among the classic alternative/garage rock albums of the eighties.  It's instructive that the best songs on this record recycle tunes from Stop Pretending and an unreleased album (the demos of which are on the deluxe re-release of Stop Pretending).

Bottom line?  Pandoras without Paula Pierce is no Pandoras at all.  Kim, Melanie, et al, try their best, and if you booked them for your private party you'd be happy with this set of songs and their performance.

Having said that, if this is the best they can do, then it's best to remember the Pandoras in their heyday when Paula was still alive and one could listen to It's About Time and Stop Pretending for the excellent records they were and still are.

I'd prefer the memories to this sad attempt at reviving a once great band.

title: Great transaction!

text: Great shape!


title: Great mix of 80s music

text:
This CD has a good variety of 80s music ranging from ballads, midtempo pop, uptempo pop and classic rock and this is the kind of music you can sing along with and never get tired of it.

My only gripe is that this compilation doesn't feature Styx, The Bangles, Tiffany and Debbie Gibson but you can't always have everything.

text: these cd has great songs on it I love the trance mix of be my lover


title: Five Stars

text: these cd is great


title: The Original is Still the Best

text:
In short:  The Elmer Bernstein soundtrack to THE BRIDGE AT REMAGEN is great.  I bought the CD primarily for the REMAGEN soundtrack.  Until this CD became available I had to make due with a compilation CD of war movie soundtracks performed by the City of Prague Philharmonic.  Close, but not close enough.  The original is still the best.

The second half of the CD is devoted to the soundtrack from THE TRAIN.  The soundtrack for THE TRAIN was composed by Maurice Jarre.  The unfortunate thing is that for ten years almost every soundtrack Jarre composed and arranged was full of music cues similar to LAWRENCE OF ARABIA.  THE TRAIN and NIGHT OF THE GENERALS are two examples of movies that should have been scored by someone else.  When I listen to the REMAGEN soundtrack I usually skip the tracks from THE TRAIN.

I suppose similar music cue comments could be used for Elmer Bernstein scores in that there are also many occasions where his scores harken back to THE GREAT ESCAPE and THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN.  In fact while listening to THE BRIDGE AT REMAGEN, a very military track that accompanies a scene where the German commander(Robert Vaughn) arrives at the bridge, is very similar to music accompanying scenes from STRIPES.  So it goes.

A nice little booklet also comes with the CD.


title: Five Stars

text: goood cd like older music


title: A Rare Gem

text:
I have owned this cd for years and it remains one of my favorites.  J.C. has a wonderful rich voice, and all of the songs are excellent.  "Never Gonna Change" is so soulful that it still sends chills down my spine. "Catfish" is a whimsical blues number and is my favorite song on the disk.  "Drive By Blues" is kicky, well-emphasized by the horns, with a strong social message.  My only complaint to this release is that he didn't complete the whole version of "Amazing Grace". His is the ONLY version of this song that I like!

I saw J.C. Rico at the Waterfront Blues Festival a couple of times, and he was just as good live.  I don't know where he's been in recent years but I sure do miss him.

If you are curious about this cd, you will NOT be disappointed.

title: Best of all singing groups

text: I just love to listen to this singing group and continue finding Audio CD’s to complete my collection.  No other group can sound better than them in my personal opinion.  Amazon says it was lost but it came in excellent condition.


title: Classic songs, need better vocalist

text: If you want to teach your children these classic songs, this is a great album. But if you want them to learn to sing, not so much. The main vocalist is very bland, seems off-key occasionally, and not a very good example for children to follow or to inspire them.

title: Menopause the musical

text: What a great play this was. For anyone who has gone through or about to go though Menopause don't miss this play. The songs are spot on for what women go through. I purchased this for a friend who I went with to see the play. She was so happy when I gave her this she sings the songs to help her go through life. Very funny! Yes, men were even at the play with there significant others.

title: Last ride for BTO

text:
I was 18 when this album came out and, to be honest, it was definitely a slight departure from their other albums. If you listen to their first 4, they are all loud guitar driven, excellent cruising songs. Me and my buddies were huge BTO fans, saw them live at the Chicago Stadium in Jan 1976 with Styx. "Head On" came out in late '75, and that album did have a slightly different sound to it as well. I loved it, IMO, you could hear more musicianship than before. In fact, I just listened to it along with "Freeways" on my way to work and back this week.

"Freeways" showed even more growth, and, yes, the songs were tamed down a bit, but more musical. Legend has it that Randy was exerting his control over the band and the recording of this album, which did not sit well with the others, eventually, Randy said adios to BTO.

If the others weren't 100% happy with the recording process on "Freeways", I don't hear it. Blair is superb, Fred's voice still in fine form, and Robbie (RIP) was even better than before.

In a way, it may have been a good thing that BTO ended then, they never really had to go through what so many bands do that have stayed together for many years and albums. Metallica, Rush, The Beatles, Yes, etc., all grew and wanted to move away from their early sound, because they get bored with it and want to expand their musical vocabulary and experiment. And that's a good thing. If they don't, then people will complain that every album sounds like the last one. We can enjoy jamming to Ride the Lightning, or 2112, etc. whenever we want, and learn to grow to love a band's later efforts. Even songs that may not have grabbed me after listening to the album a few times grew on me once I heard them live.

Long story short, "Freeways" is a nice finale on a great run of hard driving R&R from the boys from Winnipeg. I love this album just as much as their others, even their "Brave Belt" discs have some good memories for me.

text: A rare treasure.


title: A Great Album

text: I've loved Roy Rogers since I was a kid, and when I saw this album I had to buy it. I've not been disappointed. If you like Roy Rogers and the Sons of the Pioneers, and the old Cowboy songs that you no longer hear on the radio, this is an album you should buy.


title: Thanks!

text: Everything was great! As usual!


title: Excellent!

text: Awesome. Just awesome! Thanks!


title: Love It!

text: I loved this music. Very soothing and takes me back to a happy childhood!


title: demi lovato cd

text: I'm over 30 and love her voice, I think she will be a greater singer as she gets older!


title: What the others say is true. I bought this ...

text: What the others say is true. I bought this CD back in the early nineties. I soon discovered it was nothing but a bootleg CD copied from an LP.  No stereo and one song plays faster than it should. I have the original Mercury stereo LP (all tracks were stereo except one).  Just an FYI, the stereo LP version of Please Don't Talk To The Lifeguard is a bit different then the released 45 version.  You can hear most of the stereo LP songs on YouTube.  Search for "Diane Ray Stereo".


title: FROZEN LOVE!!!!

text: I have never owned this before, lots of songs included that I didn't know were "there's", stevie included some of these on her 24 k gold cd.  gotta love frozen love.


title: Five Stars

text: ok


title: interesting, relaxing

text: The first time I listened to this album, I listened to both cds in one sitting. Though the music is for one cello, it seems as though 2 or more are playing concurrently at times, because of the speed of the playing and the wide variations of pitch ocurring within a short period of time.  I recommend Bach: Cello Suites to any music lover because The Cello Suites are the type of music that can get anyone interested in classical music. Their catchy melodies can appeal to anyone, especially Suite No. 1.


title: Hear the words of the author.

text: This audio book (3 Audio CDs) is great, you can hear the author telling the stories just like he heard and remembered them from the mouths of those that were there.  Also included is a DVD of an interview done by Sid Roth of "It's SuperNatural.


title: All The Halloween Hits I Can Think Of

text: As far as I can tell it's all the original artists or at least equally famous cover versions of the songs. Only a couple of "Really? Call that a Halloween Song?" tracks. Overall a great selection of music for your party.


title: Super from the Man!

text: A terrific live album with some of Van's more recent material.


title: Awesome quality!

text: These Christmas stockings are perfection.


Arrived in only two days, more than a week ahead of projected receipt date. Item received in perfect condition. Extremely satisfied!!


title: Great music

text: LOVE THIS woman


title: Five stars!!! Awesome soundtrack!!!

text:
"I've been waiting for such a very long time now, to where I can actually own this very soundtrack on CD, the theme music sounds exactly what I hear in the movie "Runaway" theme by theme. And I for one have been watching the movie itself ever since I first saw it aired on HBO thirty years ago when I was just a little boy, but at the same time over the years I have completely falling in love with the soundtrack to the film ever since then."

"Now as for soundtrack music composer Jerry Goldsmith, this guy alone has done an outstanding job  with choreographing & creating the theme music behind the movie".

"So I just wanna say thank you Amazon for making my search for the movie soundtrack "Runaway" possible to ordered on CD, the website has absolutely made my day three years ago."😂

title: Great Music

text: A wonderfully done album.


title: A Great Album

text: I bought this album and I love it.  It was recorded when Carl Wilson was solo and I listen to this album often.


title: Excellent

text: Great album!


title: Recorded in the late '70s with excellent solo playing

text: This recording is one that you will want in your collection.  LA Phil was really primed up for this recording.  Zukerman of course does a great job, but the LA Phil soloists give an effortless performance that I can listen to over and over.

text: This is a pedal car, this diecast is heavy for its size


title: Bob Norden is another Bill Harris

text: I knew Bob when we were teens and played in the same band. He was a phenomenon. He later went on to Juilliard.


title: This album really grows on you.

text:
As a long-time fan of Queensryche, I was vapid with anticipation when I heard of the release of this album.  The marketing for it was virtually non-existant, and I actually discovered the album had been released when I  ran across a guitar transcription for "I Am I."
The first  listen, for me, was a bit of a disappointment.  I was really expecting  another "Empire" (and hoping for another "Operation:  Mindcrime"), and this album is DEFINITELY not either one.  However, a  strange thing happened when I listened to it several more times.  I found  myself almost mesmerized by the eerie music and haunting vocals.  The band  took a change of direction, but it was a good change.
Simply speaking,  this album is a work of art.  It is superb.  Buy this album, and give it a  FEW listens; you will not be disappointed.


title: Beautiful and deep.

text: Beautiful Christmas music.  This album contains original works of great depth spiritually and musically.  It add so much more to the ordinary Christmas music that most traditional pieces seem mundane.


title: Looks for the European release if you can!

text: A great listening experience....  One thing I will note is that the European release is the one to get!  There is an awesome extra track called "Skylands" which was never released in the United States.


title: My First Bruckner

text:
Excellent, indispensable.  Jascha Horenstein is my favorite conductor, and in his hands the greatest Romantic music comes alive as I am sure its composers intended.  When you listen to a Horenstein performance, you hear not a group of musicians playing notes but a single piece of music--you hear the composer's sounds as he or she heard them inside.

This was my first Bruckner, so I did not know what to expect, but I now see him as a sort of spiritual father or musical precursor to Mahler.  Bruckner too created worlds with his music.  This symphony in particular is magnificent.  If you love Mahler as I do, you owe it to yourself to try Bruckner.  The man is completely underrated.


title: I was in this video for a few minutes.

text: I was at this concert and I loved it. Also I was in it for a few minutes. This tape was in great shape and no problems with it.


title: it jumps

text: I like his music. I burned  many songs on this cd too a blank cd and play them on my car cd player. It's great.


title: An old favorite

text: I am sad I can not buy a copy of this now. Please sell the mp3! CLJB was my favorite band at my college folk festival thirty years ago. I still sing "Einstein the Genius" in my head! I don't own a copy now because I gave my old cassette to a little boy named Albert on his birthday (he is a grown man by now!) Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!
