5 out of 5 stars good memories for me and fun "new" songs for my children.......2007-06-27

We had ordered this for "The Dukes of Hazzard" theme song for our 4yr old and our whole family has fallen in love with the cd. It makes me want to share some of the old fun and simple shows with my children. I forgot about some of those shows. It brings back good memories for my husband and me and the songs are new and exciting for our children. It's a nice change from children's cd's, but our children still think it's fun. The sound quality is good and the songs included on the cd are a great mix. I would definately recommend this one.

5 out of 5 stars memories.......2007-02-22

This cd is excellent it has a lot of very good music and true to the original sound, Am getting a lot of enjoyment,highly recomended

5 out of 5 stars TV Theme Songs.......2007-01-13

This is a great CD for people who watch a lot of TV -especially TV LAND and reruns of old shows when shows had actual theme songs. I took the CD to work and everyone loved trying to figure out what show the songs were from.

3 out of 5 stars TV themes.......2006-07-05

Not all what I expected, not all of the tunes are the original recordings you remember as the TV themes.

5 out of 5 stars Deja Vu.......2006-02-17

Listening to these familiar themes as performed by the original artists certainly brings back wonderful memories! I was particularly pleased, not only with the quality of the pieces, but with the actual performances themselves, just as we remembered them!

Im recommending this CD and the Soundracks to Return of the Living Dead, Moonlighting, and the transformers movie to anty eighties fans out there.
Also of interest is the Lost Boys soundtrack. Also worthwhile, but sadly out of print are the soundtrack albums to the films Return of the Living Dead part 2, Nightmare on elm Street 4 and Fright Night.

Cleveland's Wynona Carr was a sadly underrated master of metaphor in gospel songwriting. Her best-known release during her 1949-54 heyday was "The Ball Game," an extended metaphor with Satan as the pitcher, Solomon as the umpire, and so on. She had several other similarly clever songs, including "Dragnet for Jesus" (inspired by the TV show) and "15 Rounds for Jesus," that were never released at the time. It's thought that Specialty Records felt the songs were a little too clever and not straightforwardly devotional enough. There may also have been concern about the effect a jump-blues feel would have on a conservative record-buying public, although contemporary records by Sister Rosetta Tharpe and songs by Mahalia Jackson scarcely a decade later were equally jazzy. This 26-song collection covers a lot of stylistic ground: on "I'm a Pilgrim Traveler" (modeled on the blues song "St. James Infirmary") and an "Our Father" recorded at the Rev. C.L. Franklin's Bethel Baptist Church, she shows off a full-voiced sanctified style with impressive power and expression. Turning the tables on R&B artists who were not above rewriting gospel numbers with secular lyrics, she borrows back Wynonie Harris's "Good Rockin' Tonight" and rewrites it as "I Heard the News (Jesus Is Coming Again)." --Bob Bannister

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Our Father Is a STUNNER.......2006-06-02

This is a great album full of bouncy well sung gospel.

Then the last song comes up(#26 Our Father: fragmented). Wynona is singing at Aretha Franklin's father's church. The performance and vocal power unleashed is a stunner. It is humbling. They just don't make singers like this any more. Lorraine Ellison is the only one who touches this.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Album.......2004-03-16

'I Heard Mother Pray One Day' is probably worth the cost of entry. Sister Carr is definitely underrated and under-appreciated. My guess is if she had focused less on gospel she would have been a bigger deal. She also had the curse of the successful novelty recording (although some of her novelty songs like dragnet are pretty darned entertaining). Anyway buy this album and put a track on a mixed tape and people will almost always ask... "Who is that?!"

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding.......2002-11-10

is the only word for this Cd of this sadly neglected "great".
The voice is out of this world and this really is gospel at its very best.
If you are already a gospel fan or just want reat music in your collection then this is one that you must get.
"Sister" Carr stand up to any of the gospel greats from this era as this album proves.

5 out of 5 stars spirit, soul, and sass..........1999-06-16

great recordings from a great singer just look me in the eye and tell me that 'dragnet for jesus' or 'fifteen rounds' aren't immortal tracks that cross over all boundaries of genre and time.

5 out of 5 stars greatest gospel cd on the market today.......1999-05-16

if you dont dig wynonna, you must have grown up on pluto. this is her greatest album, and although her secular work is fine, these are the tunes that symbolize the Golden Age of Gospel.

    5 out of 5 stars Escape from the Dragnet.......2007-03-08

    Coming in a close second place to the joy of hearing for the first time a tune, or, even better, a disc of tunes, that, until the moment of hearing it, it was not possible to imagine your life without, is the joy of rediscovering an old gem which - sentiment being fickle - you'd once imagined that you could not live without but had somehow, by passage of years, managed to do exactly that.

    There was a time when this record, in the scratchy vinyl form which I listen to now, was indispensable to my life. Hardly a day went by when I did not play it. Admittedly, I did have fewer records in those days but it was affection rather than deprivation that informed my choice. At the undeniable risk of being accused of boasting and possessing possibly prophetic (i.e., supernatural) powers, I can only admit, humbly but with undeniable humbug, that I was right to realise then that this record can possibly change your life, your luck and chances with the ladies and gents. People, I present to you, a monument.

    For diehard Fall fans, there are no tunes to recommend. Each one here is indispensable. But during the months that I inflicted this record on flatmates, I noticed that some tunes went down better than others. Those were Psykick Dancehall, A Figure Walks, Dice Man, Printhead, Before the Moon Falls, Flat of Angles, Your heart Out, Choc-Stock, Muzorewi's Daughter, Spectre vs. Rector and Put Away.

    How could I have forgotten this record? Get your orders in. Quickly.
    Ba da ba da!

    5 out of 5 stars A must-have for any Fall fan!.......2005-10-08

    Whichever year you first discovered the Fall, you MUST have this 1979 classic LP! This ranks as one of their best and has the first appearaince of Marc Riley on guitar, he is now a DJ on BBC radio and also formed his own band, Marc Riley and The Creepers, back in 1983, who are also well worth a listen. DRAGNET opens with PSYKICK DANCEHALL, with a spoof disco beat at the beginning and during the verses and a thoroughly shambolic but effective two-chord chorus. Mark E Smith, vocalist, rants, shouts and sings off key in his inimitable and unique style. DICE MAN, about the book, methinks, is a pastiche of Bo Diddley with its beat, and also clock the punkiness of PRINTHEAD, a surreal look at the music press from what I can decipher of the lyrics! Smith always throws around cryptic and indecipherable stories in the songs when he feels like it.

    What I also liked about this LP was the rough and ready production obviously done on a low budget. The CD version is better quality, obviously, but the roughness came across better on my old vinyl copy. Other sings of note - BEFORE THE MOON FALLS, a very repetitive, chugging 'epic'(says word with sarcasm) with a one-chord riff in places which works, if you don't know this song give up the guitar now. SPECTRE VS RECTOR, their version of The Exorcist; FLAT OF ANGLES, a harsh but sometimes poppy number with hints of early Pink Floyd which tells of the tribulations of living in a tower block; PUT AWAY, which shambles along sounding like a bad band rehearsal and is a story of prison. On the CD, you also get ROWCHE RUMBLE, SECOND DARK AGE and another take on PSYKICK DANCEHALL which is actually sharper and ballsier than the album version. These tracks are off a 1979 single release which did well that year.
    Overall, great to see that this post-punk classic is available on CD again for Fall fans old and young to enjoy. If you're into bands like The Hives and The Strokes and Franz Ferdinand, give The Fall a listen so you can see where they got it all from!
