Customer Reviews:
Instruments of the Orchestra - Great Reference Material!.......2007-04-04
This set lends itself to greatly enhancing one's knowledge of the orchestra, instruments in it, and their usage. I am a huge music buff, and I still picked up a great deal I previously did not know. I highly recommend this for all who wish to understand the origin of music, as well as the processes that are employed to create music!
Beginner or Expert.......2007-03-12
This CD is excellent for the beginner or expert! To be able to haear the instrumets separately and then together really provides a good education. and/or refresher. The book thaty comes with the CD is alomost worth the price by itself!
Very Informative and Enjoyable.......2006-11-20
Whether you're a music novice or pro, "The instruments of the Orchestra" is a very worthwhile purchase. The 7 CDs, with a total of 8 hours, are expertly narrated by Jeremy Siepmann. He's a great speaker, very much like the late Leonard Bernstein was. Mr. Siepmann takes you on an unforgetable musical journey covering the origins and use of the various orchestral instruments throughout musical history. The balance between his narration and a wealth of musical examples, which range from snippets to entire movements, is superb. The comprehensive enclosed booklet is excellent and faithfully follows the 7 CDs in content. Even with my 40+ years of music training I still learned new things from this wonderful collection. Considering the excellence of the content, and a cost that translates to about $5 per disc, this collection is a great value. Grab it, you won't regret that you did. Five solid stars!
Frank's view.......2006-08-19
This boxed set of CD's with booklet achieved all I had hoped that it would. There are good samples of individual instruments and well done commentary on each. The only drawback was that some of the samples were too brief and could have been longer, hoiwever I guess this fits in with time constraints of the medium. It has given me a lot of clues as to future purchases of CD's for listening to individual instruments. Altogeth a satisfactory purchase and a welcome addition to my collection.
Excellent Intro for Those Not Familiar with the Orchestra.......2003-11-08
I've listened to classical music for years and am interested in composition. I bought this CD set to learn how an orchestra and its instruments work. I thought the CDs would be a nice but boring lecture. They aren't! Not only are they FUN but they are informative as well. I learned a huge amount from each CD and couldn't wait to listen to the next one.
The narrator and writer is a great speaker and holds your attention well. He is definitely knowledgeable. He provides musical examples for each point he makes, so you get to "hear" what he just talked about. I'd say the CDs are about 65% music and 35% narration. You'll learn about the range of instruments, some history, different ways to play them, how they sound, and how they are used in the orchestra. This CD set was a great learning experience and is sold at such a low price!
I recommend this CD for those who want to learn about classical music and those who know about it but are interested in learning more about the inner workings of an orchestra. You'll learn much useful information. For instance, the Rite of Spring (with that eerie start) is written for bassoon! I never knew a bassoon could sound like that but now I do.
The one complaint I have is the last CD. This deals with the orchestra. I wanted more of a tour of how the orchestra has been used through history up to the present. Instead, it was a tour of how different groups of instruments sound. I thought it could have been better. The other 6 CDs are excellent.

Cy Coleman and David Zippel's City of Angels is a seductive depiction of 1940s Los Angeles, capturing swinging jazz, torchy ballads, witty lyrics, and even a Manhattan Transfer-like Greek chorus (arranged by ManTran guru Yaron Gershovsky). James Naughton and Gregg Edelman star as Stone and Stine, respectively a tough Raymond Chandleresque PI and the writer who dreams up his adventures. Randy Graff plays Stone's long-suffering secretary and Dee Hoty the requisite femme fatale. Loads of atmosphere and tasty songs such as "What You Don't Know About Women," "With Every Breath I Take," "You're Nothing Without Me," and "You Can Always Count on Me" make City of Angels a modern classic. It won 1990 Tony Awards for Best Musical, Leading Actor (Naughton), Featured Actress (Graff), Best Book (Larry Gelbart), and Best Original Score. --David Horiuchi
Customer Reviews:
Fun Show, Average Score.......2007-02-21
Fun show, ingenuos concept, so-so score, with one exception. The ballad With Every Breath I Take is brilliant. One of Coleman's best pieces.
Cleverness personified.......2006-10-16
A duet between an author and the character he created, each claiming "you're nothing without me," is just one example of how sharp, witty and clever show is, with an unusual score, jazzy and bluesy and very 1940s, and some of the best lyrics I know.
Fantastic Jazz Musical That's FUN!!!.......2006-04-14
City of Angels is an incredibly fun, classy, and jazzy musical that delivers. Stellar vocal performances are provided by the entire cast, particularly the female end. The fact that Randy Graff was the only female from this cast nominated at the Tony Awards that year floors me. Kay McClelland and Rachel York deserved nods for their powerful solos, With Every Breath I Take and Lost Found, alone. These two songs are also the type of sultry, jazz solos that one would expect in the 40's, which is why the show works. The music is completely period with when the show takes place, and that's why I love it. The best tracks are:
3) What You Don't Know About Women
6) With Every Breath I Take (destined to be a classic)
9) Lost and Found (wonderful solo)
10) All You Have To Do Is Wait (FUN! FUN! FUN SONG!!! Hilarious as well)
11) You're Nothing Without Me
13) You Can Always Count On Me (Randy Graff's Tony!)
Great Jazz-Oriented Score.......2005-06-25
1990 Tony winner for Best Musical, "City Of Angels" contains a great score, filled with jazz-oriented melodies & torch songs. Not all the songs are terrific, but most of the score lends itself to repeat listenings. Best tracks include:
Double Talk
What You Don't Know About Women
With Every Breath I Take [beautiful song!]
Lost And Found
You're Nothing Without Me [the show's hit]
You Can Always Count On Me
Funny
Great cast ... great buy!
I love it!.......2005-02-22
This is one of my favorite soundtracks ever! Since I'm going to be working on music for the show, I'm happy that this is the case. It has been in my CD player for a few weeks now, and there's enough variety for it not to get old. But having read through the script makes the lyrics infinitely wittier. Musicals are supposed to rely partially on the lyrics and partially on the script. This show does that perfectly. Without the script, the lyrics are (apparently) lacking. But without the lyrics, the script is missing something. When you put the two pieces together, however, it's really easy to see why this show won a Tony.

I expected good music from one parent to another parent.......2007-05-03
While her vocals are great (and very reminiscent of a blend of Alanis Morissette and Sarah McLachlan) and I did expect a collection of songs from the heart of a parent, I was disappointed to find language that would require a bar of soap in a household of children. I can't play this when my kids are around! What's the point in that?
A truly gifted artist who has an unbelievable voice.......2006-01-30
I discovered Kath Fisher on itunes and fell in love with her album "One". Her voice is truly her instrument, so controlled and multi-layered, soulful and capable of long notes and belts. She has a good range, with shades of Tori, Alanis, but with a deep tone that makes her truly unique. Her lyrics are cool, with an enunciation that makes them understandable. Her tunes are catchy, but not your typical radio pop, though I have heard her on San Diego radio. Standouts include "I will love you" on ONE; I love "Beautiful Life" which you may recognize from the Toyota commerical; and "The Lovely Years" from the new album of the same name. I actually have all of her albums, and all songs are just great. UPPERS AND DOWNERS is an album of 1/2 quick tempo songs and 1/2 slower songs, with lots of covers, including a cool version of "Dream On". If you are looking for a great, but for some reason undiscovered in the mainstream true talent, you can't go wrong with Fisher. Why isn't this girl famous?
It's a beautiful album.......2005-07-20
If you like Sarah, Tori or the Indigo girls you will love this album
Great if you are a new parent..........2005-06-15
I love Fisher's music, and bought this the day it came out. The music is good, but I was a little disappointed that the theme for the album was about how wonderful it is to be parents. Not that babies aren't wonderful, they are, but if you aren't a new parent you may not relate well to this album and True North would be a better pick.
lovely years, voice, lyrics and music = er, lovely!.......2005-05-07
new moms will be particularly attracted to the pretty songs. the lullaby "you" is especially nice -- one of only two Lullaby songs to actually make me weepy-eyed thinking about my wee one (who is now 8) (the other song was "baby mine" by alison krauss)
her voice is as lush and memorable as ever, and the music and arrangements are even better than on previous works.
stand outs other than "you": "all i ask" "beautiful day" "sleepy head" "lovely years" "turn around" and "be here".
good stuff! cd universe has the cd for $3 cheaper. i guess amazon gets their shipping cost one way or another.....

THE BEST OF BETTE!.......2003-11-23
For those who cherish those Bette Davis Golden Oldies as I do, you'll not want to be without this CD. All her most memorable film scores are here: Warner's fanfare introduces the exquisite "It Can't Be Wrong/Charlotte's Theme" from "Now, Voyager", Steiner's poignantly haunting score for "Dark Victory" the suitably regal score for "All About Eve" by Alfred Newman and the instantly recognizable theme for "A Stolen Life" - again by Max Steiner.
Korngold's score for "The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex" is fine as are the various scores for "Deception", "The Letter" and "All This, and Heaven Too" & "In This Our Life". When Davis made "Dark Victory" she was a bit "upstaged" by Max Steiner's score towards the final fade-out of the film. Judy Traherne ascends the staircase, says good-bye to Daffy and Don (her dogs) and quietly insists that her maid Martha leave her alone, undisturbed to die in peace: "beautifully and finely". During this shot, the angels are singing ethereally and Davis flung herself at director Edmund Goulding during reheasal and demanded: "Damn it, who's playing this scene? Max or me??" No fears. It worked. Beautifully.
One of Gerhardt's Best.......2002-07-26
This is one of the best albums from the classic film scores series conducted by Charles Gerhardt with the National Philharmonic Orchestra. Max Steiner composed most of the scores represented here. Max Steiner was one of the greats. My favorite cut is the "main title" from A STOLEN LIFE. This tune was uesd again in A SUMMER PLACE with Troy Donahue. Both films have their central settings in New England. This tune greatly captures the feeling of the land and sea and the people living on the New England coast. This is a lush and beatiful cd.
Simply superb!.......2002-01-14
This is one of about a half dozen or so recordings of classic film scores conducted by Mr. Charles Gerhardt, performed by the National Philharmonic Orchestra, and produced by Mr. George Korngold (Erich Wolfgang Korngold's younger son). These recordings were made in the 1970's, and with, perhaps, one exception, have yet to be equalled much less surpassed! Almost single handedly, they have shaped the film scores of today and made CDs of same a major profit center for the recording industry. Don't just buy this one; grab anything that has Mr. Gerhardt name on it!
Priceless for all old movie fans.......2000-03-13
I have had this album for years and was thrilled to find it is out in CD. This is a must have for anyone who loves old movies, especially movies of the '30's and '40's. The music is beautiful and fully orchestrated by the National Philharmonic. Each selection elicits all of the atmosphere and attendant feelings of the film for which it was written.

a classic.......2006-07-21
When I was a lad of the age of 16, my friend made a mix CD for me. On this CD were several songs that I knew. There was "When I Come Around" by Green Day, "Total Bummer" by NOFX, several blink-182 songs, and then there were a few I didn't know. Two of those songs were "Hit and Miss" and "It Never Snows In Florida." Yes, I realize that those songs are not on this CD, but that was my first introduction to New Found Glory. Of course, back then they were just changing from A New Found Glory to New Found Glory. Their self-titled CD had just been release that year. What I heard was from Nothing Gold Can Stay. There wasn't all the hype from "My Friends Over You" or "All Downhill From Here." It was just a bunch of guys playing music. Jordan couldn't sing great, and the rest couldn't play perfectly, but they loved what they did. I think the best song on here is "Standstill." It's beautiful. But this CD is what it is, nothing more or less. It's not suger-coated pop-punk. It's not rebel-from-your-parents punk rock. And it's definately not cut your wrists hardcore. It's what New Found Glory has always been: a bunch of guys playing music and having fun. Just because it's poorly recorded doesn't mean it's any worse than Catalyst. That's why I love NFG. No matter how big they get, they'll still answer your emails on myspace, they'll still talk to you like you're just as good as them, they're still normal guys who just happen to be in a band. This CD is a brilliant piece of history. If you love NFG like me, or if you just like them like most of my friends, this CD is a must: a classic.
good if u havent heard the others.......2005-01-27
this album is pretty good but not new found glory at there best, as its 1 of there 1st albums then no-one would expect it to be there best work. this is pretty good for a debut album. if youve heard catalyst,new found glory and sticks and stones then you most probably wont be pleased with this album. but you can still tell its new found glory and there are a few classic nfg tracks on here. 6/10
New found glory kicks ass even in their early days!!!!!!!.......2003-12-30
This cd is soooo freakin awesome you don't have to be a diehard fan to like it i'm not a diehard fan and i like it just as much it is definetly like Blink-182's buddah i dont know why people hate it just because it doesn't sound as polished as their newer stuff it doesnt mean it's a bad cd and it also has ferris bueller lines throughout the songs and that is one of my favorite 80's movies thats awesome so whoever thinks this cd is crap well then they need to shove off because what can you expect for their first cd it's pretty awesome compared to what some people can do.

put this in your pipe and smoke it.......2005-09-07
I bought this album when it was released in 1971 in the U.S. under the title of "Tobacco Road". The cover art depicted a pipe, and (heh,heh) I don't think the reference was to tobacco. At the time, it was just a record company's attempt to capitalize on the success of a band by releasing the back catalogue.
"It's All About" is kind of a grab-bag of late 60's psychedelia and it reveals a lot of charms in a band you don't usually associate with subtlety. This reissue, with bonus tracks, improves the sound tremendously over the LP version, and the music is revitalized by the improved mix. Greg Ridley's bass guitar really benefits--he sounds better here, and more inventive, than he ever did with Humble Pie.
Highlights include "Society's Child" (the weepy Janis Ian tune done in a Vanilla Fudge style arrangement), the dirge-like "Here I Lived So Well", and the song "(I Think I'm Going)Weird", which is the kind of 'nugget' that deserves inclusion in the cd collections of the real devotees of FREAKBEAT.
Spooky Tooth carried on and made the solid album "Spooky Two", but the over-the-top, Righteous Brothers meet Led Zeppelin formula began to wear thin. "It's All About" catches Spooky Tooth when the formula wasn't quite in place... it features a lot of experimentation, and is similar in feel to another album Jimmy Miller produced, Traffic's debut album "Mr. Fantasy". Dreamy confections from long ago, yours to taste again--if you wish.

Customer Reviews:
Great compilation.......2002-05-10
I don't actually own this particular compilation, however, since I own nearly every recording represented on these discs...I think I'm qualified to comment. This is a wonderful representation of the high quality of work that DRG Records does.
The previous review is way off the mark. This is definitely not a waste of time or money. This is 25 years of preserving Broadway shows, Off-Broadway shows, studio recordings (mostly from the city center concerts), etc. So what if they "aren't as good as the original", DRG is preserving many recordings and artists that other mainstream labels don't or won't. You have wonderful recordings from Brian Stokes Mitchell, Nathan Lane, Debbie Gravitte, Tyne Daly, Anthony Perkins, Joanna Gleason, Marin Mazzie, Carol Burnett, Heather Headley, Patti LuPone, Barbara Cook, etc., and many of these are from Original Cast Recordings just as they appeared on Broadway. This is an excellent sampler of the work going on at DRG. No...I'm not an employee...just an avid listener and collector of theatre recordings.
A disappointment.......2001-12-15
There's a reason you've probably never heard of most of the songs and shows on this album, not to mention most of the artists. This is a second-rate collection of second-rate numbers performed by mostly second-rate artists. In the case of the shows that were revivals, the performances on the original cast recordings were better. Don't waste your money.

Kenny Loggins Still Has IT !!!.......2007-05-13
Vintage Kenny. You cannot go wrong buying CDs from a legend.
This is Such an Amazing CD!.......2007-04-25
This is such an amazing CD. I've been a big fan of Kenny Loggins for over 30 years now, ever since he was teaming up with Jim Messina. Every time I pick up one of his CD's, I find myself comparing it to the previous ones - and this was the mistake that I made with "It's About Time." It was tough to get the other ones out of my head (how could anyone top the incredible "Leap of Faith" or the amazing "The Unimaginable Life")? Well, this album stands in a class by itself.
When I first played it, I only cared for one or two of the songs. But I had to keep playing it until I really "got" the message behind the songs and appreciated them by themselves. In other words, I had to forget about the previous albums completely and focus on this one. I had had enough experience and faith in Kenny Loggin's music to really give this one a try. Now, after listening to it at least once a day for the past 2 weeks, I can honestly say that it's one of Kenny's best albums ever! He has consistently demonstrated a real commitment to creating and producing quality music for almost 4 decades. Do yourself a favor and pick up this CD. Forget about his previous efforts and simply enjoy this one by itself; it will not disappoint you.
Well, of course ..........2004-08-25
... reviews of Kenny Loggins's new album are written by Kenny Loggins fans. The man's musical life spans three decades. Who *doesn't* appreciate at least one Kenny Loggins song from that long, storied career? No, this album is not "Leap of Faith" or "The Unimaginable Life." Those albums were very consistent in tone and feel, comprehensive chronicles of a man's particular place in his life at a particular time. On "It's About Time," Loggins lets loose, collaborating with Michael McDonald (a long-overdue reunion), Richard Marx and Clint Black. I'm not much of a fan of country music, generally (it's just not my thing), but as someone who appreciates music in general, I can admire the songwriting and, more importantly, the fun that was had in making "Alive 'N' Kickin'." This album showcases Loggins's outstanding voice (the man can sing a falsetto way better than I'll ever be able to) in a number of styles, proving, once again, his range and artistry as a singer. There's almost a childlike quality to this album in its variety, as if he was working on the collection and followed his curiosity where it led him: "Ooh, it might be fun to do a country tune" one minute then "Haven't done much rock lately, let's do some of that" the next, with several of his amazing ballads tossed in because fans love them. Kenny Loggins has nothing to prove at this point. He's a legendary musician who makes music because he loves it, which is abundantly evident when he brings this album on the road. And, unlike many performers, he brings with him a palpable sense of gratitude to his fans who have given him the chance to live -- and thrive -- in a musical world.
Wonderful Undeniable Groove.......2004-07-08
I do not have many Kenny Loggins CD's. I bought the "Essentials" CD's and then found out about this one. I am really enjoying this CD. The songs "fit" into my playlists whether I am playing only Kenny Loggins music or playing other Artists as well. It is always good when I can mesh the music with my mood. So far I have been able to pull out this CD and find something that matched. I would have liked a few more songs.
just ok.......2004-06-24
love loggins for along time i saw him in fla last year and we walked out and went to the bar to much hippie talk with the audience he played acoustic with to young guys who played like they were reading his song book note for note to boring man/ this album is very ok 3 very good songs the rest ok and what the hell is that crap with clint black? imalright clone sucked/// listen to/leap of faith/great cd

flavorless pablum that pretends to sophistication.......2003-12-17
Sorry, absolutely nothing on this record bears a second listen. I get the feeling that, once again, somebody's trying to superimpose jazz-age cool on dance music and ending up with the worst of both. The result is at best inoffensive and forgettable. At worst, (the track "Outrageous") it's annoying sampler abuse music fit only for the sports highlight reel. Overall, this record lacks any sort of joy, giddyness, or move-your-ass-edness.
Dance/Soul Mix with Craig David included.......2003-06-19
Artful Dodger from England, which is some kind of dance group, like mixing the genre's like others, this album is mostly a mix of dance and R&B, pretty good stuff actually even if it's someow soft, they are also knows for always having guest artists singning the vocals, they however are the writers/creators and Dj's. Craig David was discoveded by these fellas back in 99 and appears on 3 songs "Re-Rewind" arguably best dance song of 99? "Women Trouble" which appears in the Bridget Jones movie and last "What Ya Gonna Do?" all good stuff. "Movin too fast" "Outragious" "Please don't turn me on" are good songs too, "Twentyfoursenven" with All Saint's singer Melanie Blatt is also notable. There's a cd with loads of songs, half of them are really good, some decent some forgettable. I think this is some kind of "best of" album cause i know that some of the songs appeared on a previuos album already. However it's original and not with remixes of every song, only 2 but the original tracks are also included. A good album, but there are many better dance oriented albums out there.
Not Bad, but it Reveals Nothing New........2002-09-20
The Artful Dodger, one of the leading names in 2-step, has delivered a thoroughly listenable CD that otherwise brings nothing new to the genre's table. That's disappointing, for I expected these guys to come up with an album that would push UK garage to unseen territory. Instead, we get the same beats and basslines, along with a predictable lineup of vocalists, including Craig David who appears on a couple tracks. After a while, the disc threatens to get one dimensional, although the mellowed-out "Think About Me," the dreamy "Movin' Too Fast," and "Re-wind" aren't bad at all and give the disc some promise. But, ultimately, the verdict is this: pick up the Dodger's previous effort "Re-Wind," which is a more consistent and satisfying disc. While casual listeners should consider "It's All About the Stragglers," the more discriminating two-step guru is likely to gripe, "been there, heard that."
Great CD!.......2002-03-16
The Artful Dodger are great. They churn out hits like its nothing! Definitely at the top of the UK Garage scene and I only wish more people knew about them. Re-Rewind almost never gets boring, they have an infinite amount of remixes for that one song in particular!
A great album from the UK........2001-11-18
A lot of people criticise UK garage for being too tacky and plain, however, this is not the case with garage guru's Pete Devereux and Mark Hill who show no sign of tack in their album 'It's All About The Stragglers'. These are the people who started off the Craig David phenomenon with their first chart-topping hit 'Rewind'. Various highlights of the album include the sentimental 'Think About Me' (with Michelle Escoffey) which is a song about how you would feel after being dumped for another person, 'It Ain't Enough' which is a high energy collaboration with other UK superstars Dreem Teem, and 'Woman Trouble' which uses a great duet on vocals by Robbie Craig & Craig David. Overall this is a good album and cannot really be critisised for being underdone as every tune has a rhythm and although it is not my faivorite I can definately say life would be much worse without it.
