Editorial Reviews

If Bryan Adams's no-frills, blue-collar image evokes a Canadian take on Springsteen, his voice--and especially his pop sensibility--recalls Rod Stewart during his post-Faces Top 40 years. There's a deceptively effortless sincerity that masks the sometimes mundane themes of the infectious hits (the cheap nostalgia of "Summer of '69" and the various romantic concerns of "Run to You," "The Best of Me," and "Please Forgive Me") gathered on this updated hits collection. (Just five of the tracks appear on his previous So Far, So Good anthology.) It's hardly surprising to learn that Adams began his career as a tunesmith covered by everyone from BTO and Loverboy to Kiss and Bonnie Tyler. That eclecticism bubbles up throughout this modern compilation, from the flamenco flavors of Don Juan De Marco's "Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman" to the MTV Unplugged classical-strings-backed rendition of "I'm Ready" and the surprisingly effective electronica of "Cloud Number Nine." This collection chronicles Adams's rise from '80s AOR (album-oriented-rock) contender to '90s MOR (middle-of-the-road) superstar, thanks to his Grammy- and Oscar-winning hit "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" from Robin Hood and harmonizing with Sting and Stewart on Three Musketeers' "All for Love." --Jerry McCulley

Not to be mistaken with Bill Withers's Greatest Hits or even the 1994 best-of with which it shares its name, Lean on Me nevertheless shares much with those two earlier retrospectives--notably the likes of such '70s soul-pop gems as the title track, "Ain't No Sunshine," "Lovely Day," and "Use Me." Like the earlier Lean on Me, this remastered selection includes 18 tracks, 13 of which overlap with the '94 set. Withers's oeuvre is something less than expansive: he recorded 10 albums for Sussex and Columbia between 1971 and 1985, then gracefully exited the business with three top 10 hits to his credit. The singer's warm vocals and wise lyrics have held up splendidly through the years, making him a likely candidate for periodic rediscovery. This anthology stands as the title of choice for the next wave of soul fans Withers wins over. --Steven Stolder

5 out of 5 stars great collection.......2007-07-12

there were a couple CD's i found of withers music, but this one had the best list of his songs.

5 out of 5 stars Best-kept secret in popular music.......2007-07-09

Bill Withers must be the best-kept secret in popular music in the last 50 years. You've heard virtually every song on this album -- many are absolute classics -- even if you've never heard of Bill Withers. This is a must-have addition to your music collection. Uplifting, moving rhythms with harmonious lyrics. From blues to jazz to R&B to mellow ballads -- great music, beautifully delivered.

4 out of 5 stars Decent pick.......2007-03-15

I got the CD for one song, but there are several nice songs on the CD.

5 out of 5 stars Review of Lean on Me-Best of Bill Withers.......2007-01-04

Wanted the classic track "Ain't no sunshine" and hoped naively for more of the same on this album but got only dated soul as honestly expected. 5 Stars are deserved just for that one track.

5 out of 5 stars Great Stuff.......2007-07-22

The sound quality of this disc is surprisingly good, very good for an ADD. All the selections captured each singer in his/her top form. It is a real treat that this disc contains many work that were not normally in certain singer's repertoire. Gedda's Aida, Moffo's Rossini-Rosina and Cherobino, for example, all were superbly sung. Even Moffo's Lucia sounds much better than I have ever heard in other places.

4 out of 5 stars A Great Introduction to Italian Opera.......2005-05-01

The artists on this CD succeed in their goal to create a CD that displays great Italian opera. Carlo del Monte and Victoria de los Angeles open the disc with the Brindisi from La Traviata. Victoria de los Angeles is not the best Violetta, but she does the job, along with her parner Carlo del Monte, an underappreciated tenor. Victoria de los Angeles also appears on the CD in "Un bel di vedremo" from Madama Butterfly, a role she was well known for. Swedish tenor Nicolai Gedda appears on the disc twice. His first appearence is a superb rendition of "La donna e mobile" from Rigoletto. His final performance on this disc is in the heroric aria "Celeste Aida", a performance in a role that was not in his voice range. Anna Moffo is the star on this CD, appearing three times in three very different roles. First is her beautiful "Una voce poco fa", normally a role that calls for a mezzo-soprano. Her second is "Voi che sapete" from Le Nozze di Figaro, another mezzo-soprano role. Her final appearence is her best, "The Mad Scene" from Lucia di Lammermoor. Underrated tenor Giuseppe Campora performs "Che gelida manina" with a great tenor voice. Soprano Reri Girst is excellent in her performance of "Caro nome" from Rigoletto. One of my favorite baritones appears on this CD. Robert Merrill is a perfect Count di Luna, and it is evident in his rendition of "Il balen del suo sorriso". Another baritone appears on this CD: mario Sereni. He is not a world famous baritone, but he should have been. Overall, this is an excellent introduction to the world of Italian opera.

5 out of 5 stars Best of the best!.......2003-01-11

The performers, the selections, the quality... almost divine!

5 out of 5 stars Fabulous bargain for anyone.......2002-11-24

I would recommend this CD to anyone, from opera novice to experienced listener...

These are older recordings -- I would guess mostly from the 1960's. The recording quality is exceptional for the day and, while not the equivalent of modern engineering, is sufficient to allow sheer physical pleasure from the music and an immediate appreciation of the vocal qualities of the artists. The sound quality is the only mild drawback...

The performances are magnificent! The voices are almost entirely lighter and more agile than the great voices of the 80's and 90's. In fact, the ear of the editor is apparent in his preference for lighter and more agile voices.

For example, there is a beautiful rendition of "Che Gelida Manina" from someone I had never heard before, Guiseppe Campora. He does not have the weight or volume of Pavarotti or Domingo, but has more elegance and a pure, charming tone. A connoisseur performance, but nevertheless a true operatic rendition by a tenor who can hit the high C with authority -- as good for a newcomer to opera who wants to hear the real thing, as for an opera lover who would like to hear something a bit different.

Some of the artists were among the most famous singers of their day: Moffo, de los Angeles, Gedda.

Anna Moffo, one of the greatest sopranos of her day (and all time), is in magnificent voice in famous blockbusters from Rossini's Barber of Seville, Mozart's Marriage of Figaro, and the Mad Scene from Lucia di Lammermoor.

De Los Angeles is at her best in "Libiamo" from La Traviata, but the recording quality (the one inadequately engineered track on the CD) and her lack of oomph make for a second-rate version of "Un bel di".

In keeping with the light and lyrical orientation of the selections, Moffo -- a famous Gilda and hardly a dramatic voice -- is bypassed for the even lighter, sweeter and more agile colatura Reri Grist (while she still had her voice), in a lovely "Caro Nome".

Another nice selection is Mario Sereni performing "Di provenza, il mar". Both this and "Libiamo" are taken from one of my favorite recordings of Traviata -- also a great chance to hear Serafin at the helm of the Rome Opera House orchestra. (The 2-CD version of this is still available from EMI, I think.) Newcomers will love this pretty tune, and Sereni's archtypal Verdi baritone is good, although hardly the best ever.

Franco Corelli has never been a favorite of mine, but he sounds the best I've ever heard him in his rendition of "Cielo et mar".

Anyway, I didn't intend to list every cut. Whether you are an opera lover who would like to hear some of opera's most famous arias performed in a new light, or an opera lover who would like to hear great performances at a cut-rate price, this CD gets my unqualified approval.

4 out of 5 stars Great songs for a low price........2001-08-16

Ranging from selections of La Traviata, Il Trovatore and other popular Italian operas, this is a great cd for under four bucks. The singers may not be well recognized, but they do possess powerful voices.

5 out of 5 stars Best of Me - Bryan Adams.......2007-06-01

I had been looking for 4 specific songs and they are on this CD. The rest of the CD is also great....

5 out of 5 stars LOVE IT!.......2007-03-19

Well, I'll admit that I'm not the BIGGEST Bryan Adams fan. I bought this cd solely for the "have you ever really loved a woman" song... but found that I like just about every song on this cd! Its great for cleaning the house, or every once in awhile my fiance turns it on to slow dance in the kitchen... I highly recommend this cd!

3 out of 5 stars Great CD But The Best It's Not.......2007-02-12

How is it possible to give Bryan Adams' previous greatest hits package a 5 star perfect review and the follow up a 3 star average review ? Simple,the rocking guy next door who belted out 'Cuts Like A Knife' and 'It's Only Love' is nowhere to be found on this one (except on 'Summer Of '69')
instead,I'm reminded of Michael Bolton and that is not a good thing

Don't get me wrong,Bryan is still an expert at great songwriting but when you put this many ballads on a single CD you're just asking the listener to fall asleep. Not quite sure what the reasoning was here. All the songs on their own are fantastic but packaged together side by side it's just too much of one style.

'The Best Of Me' - ballad
'Can't Stop This Thing We Started' - extremely overplayed but good song
'I'm Ready' - painfully slow ballad
'Summer Of '69' - absolute perfection in songwriting,his best song ever!
'Let's Make A Night To Remember' - ballad but my favorite song on this CD
'All For Love' - (ballad)I would have bet this was Michael Bolton with friends
'Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman - yet another ballad,nice one though
'Run To You' - great rocking song,I love this one
'Cloud Number Nine' - pretty good song
'Everything I do ' - ummm another ballad
'Back To You - a pretty good song
'When You're Gone '- A nice duet with ex spice girl mel c
'Please Forgive Me' and yet another ballad
'The Only Thing That Looks Good On Me Is You - Great rocking tune
'Inside Out' - are you kidding me,end with yet one more ballad

I would recommend buying this if you are a fan or simply enjoy most of these songs and want to listen to them one at a time....but seriously run out and buy 'So Far So Good' that is MUCH MUCH Better...Bryan Adams is great and has a romantic soft side but also has a rocking side that you would just never know from this release

The Upside - packed full of great,well thought out songs,great production and great singing and performances,plus includes some gems that were not included on the previous greatest hits package

The Downside - (snooring) It literally puts me to sleep,never listen to this while driving a vehicle,far too many slow songs on one CD

The Bottom Line - As a huge Bryan Adams fan I had to buy this because I love every song,I just wish he would have either released a double album with more upbeat songs or left off some of these ballads...you should check this out because the songs really are good but definitely buy 'So Far So Good' from Bryan Adams first to really get a taste of what this songwriting genius is capable of....or if you have insomnia and need some helping getting to sleep this is a perfect prescription...donutman says so!!!

4 out of 5 stars Best of Me by Bryan Adams.......2007-01-09

5 out of 5 stars Love This Cd.......2007-01-03

This Cd has all the songs i have been wanting to listen specially Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman it's a great song it reminds me of love every time i listen to it, I just enjoy listening to it alot, The rest of the songs are just great, I also own So Far So Good another great cd, i think Bryan Adams is the best artist i have ever had in my cd collection, Just buy this cd.

Cynical types will accuse Disney of milking the "greatest" concept until it's drier than Tinkerbell's fairy dust ("Supercalafragilisticexpealidocious," "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Da," and "Heigh Ho" were hits off of Vol. 1; "Bare Necessities," "It's a Small World," and "Some Day My Prince Will Come" stole the show on Vol. 2), but a glimpse of this installment's track listing is all it'll take to squash their suspicions. Once again running reverse-chronologically, Vol. 3 opens with Jonatha Brooke's gorgeously achy ballad "I'll Try," from 2002's arguably not-so-great Return to Neverland, and gradually reaches back through the years to re-raise the curtain on Toy Story 2 ("When She Loved Me," performed by Sarah McLachlan), The Lion King ("Can You Feel the Love Tonight"), Mary Poppins (Julie Andrews's classic "A Spoonful of Sugar"), Pinocchio ("Give a Little Whistle"), and a bundle of treasured others, bottoming out at 1933's "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" from The Three Little Pigs. Vol. 3 is not without its weak moments--would a G-rated movie-goers' poll produce Beauty and the Beast's "Gaston" or The Hunchback of Notre Dame's "Topsy Turvy" on a hits list? Seems unlikely. Still, the bulk of these tracks are, as the included Little Mermaid song goes, "Part of Your World," and the spread of decades they represent proves their staying power. Don't expect Disney to latch the lid on its inexhaustible archives until a dozen or so of these records, each as strong as the next, beckon you back for more. --Tammy La Gorce

Nothing brings sweet recollection of Disney movies like hearing the wonderful songs. In an age where there so much music with no redeeming qualities, these Disney CDs are priceless. Wonderful for the entire family to listen to around the house or in the car while traveling. We can't help but sing along. We love that these are the original tracks from the movies! Wonderful! We now have all three volumes.

I love the songs on this volume. I'll Try by Jonatha Brooke is such an amzing somg. I especially bought this CD fort that song but, was pleasantly surprsed by the rest of the playlist.

I have bought the first 2 volumes of Disney's Greatest Hits and the 3rd volume doesn't disapoint. My 2 young children love to listen to this CD and talk about the movies that they come from. A definate must have!

3 out of 5 stars Not as good as Vol 1 and Vol 2.......2005-09-11

This Disney CD represents the "leftovers" that didn't make it on Vol 1 and Vol 2 of this series. Although it has some of my favorites, I don't listen to the entire CD often. Disney could have done a better job of editing the which sound files should make the cut on this one. Still, it's nice to have all 3 CDs.

Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Latter-day also-rans.......2007-05-28

There will always be arguments for this or that singer, but this title is absurd. I didn't see a single Jussi Bjoerling, George London, Leonard Warren, or Zinka Milanov, and only one mention of Del Monaco. These were singers. Bjoerling and London were in a class by themselves. I saw all of these folks live on stage. London and Del Monaco had stage presence you don't get now. Di Stefano, Kirsten, de los Angeles should be on any best list. Play any tenor aria by any tenor; then play Bjoerling's. Play any bass/baritone aria by any singer; then play London's. Jussi and George will knock your socks off. They sang everything in every language. Tebaldi and Pavarotti sang only Italian, much easier.

4 out of 5 stars A well-sung compilation.......2003-09-15

Compilations usually receive negative feedback from experienced opera listeners. However, this compilation by no means should be only welcomed by opera listeners, it should be welcomed by all music listeners. This CD is a great one to own for a first time opera listener. Also, for the person who wants to listen to opera once in a while and who does not want to buy a myriad of CD's in order to have the same amount of arias as this CD has. Eighty-percent of the singers are high-quality singers in this CD and the orchestras along with their respective conductors, do justice to the songs. All of the arias in this CD are what we in the field call, standard repertoire, and therefore are a good source for a beginning musician to help him or her listen to phrasing, colour, dynamics, language etc. I certainly recommend it, without a doubt.

1 out of 5 stars This cant be the best.......2003-04-20

Elisa from Italy is absolutely right--well, the present generation may not be able to listen the golden oldies and the grand masters in person but it is still true that the past masters far surpassed the new. De Stefano had a magnetic voice, but listen to Gigli singing Puccini's La boheme and you will melt away, though it is v v v difficult to get hold of his mono recordings, even in CD. I disagree with Elisa only on one point: Tebaldi is good, but Victoria de Los angeles' Mimi is better. And the indulgent Thomas Beecham is my favourite conductor of this opera, way ahead of Toscannini, but De Stefano's Boheme is worth keeping and listening to again and again....

1 out of 5 stars TRUE OPERA LOVERS CANNOT POSSIBLY LIKE THIS!.......2002-11-27

True opera lovers (I won't say "experts" 'cos I dislike the word) cannot possibly like this ... ! Apart from Callas, here there is none of the greatest artists! Callas may be great in Carmen but nobody can beat RENATA TEBALDI and her angel-like voice in all of Puccini's operas or in GIORDANO's Andrea Chénier. No Carreras can beat MARIO DEL MONACO in Leoncavallo's Pagliacci, or Verdi's Otello. And finally, NO ALAGNA, or PAVAROTTI, or LICITRA, or whatever CHEAP TENOR or CROOK can ever beat the greatest tenor of all times: GIUSEPPE DI STEFANO!
Come on! You can't like crook Pavarotti once you have heard Giuseppe Di Stefano!! You can't like ... connductor Riccardo Muti if you have listened to Arturo Toscanini!!
True opera lovers, especially lovers of Puccini, go for the Immortal, the Sublime, the Beautiful in opera: GO FOR GIUSEPPE DI STEFANO!
Go hear his performance of "E lucevan le stelle" as in EMI Callas/Di Stefano "Tosca" or "Che Gelida manina" always as in EMI Callas/Di Stefano "La Boéme" and you'll know what I mean.

5 out of 5 stars Even if you Hate Complilations, Get This One.......2002-06-21

This is a marvelous collection of better known arias and duets in Opera. The singers are those famous for setting, and raising, the bar in their field and for their times: Renata Scotto, Maria Callas, Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Jose Carreras, Placido Domingo, Luciano Pavarotti. If you are only somewhat familiar with opera, these recordings give you the highest feeling of what an aria or duet can sound like when sung and interpreted at its best. If you are already familiar with these songs, then you will appreciate this collection all the more for having gathered them in one place. I play both discs all the time. I've especially appreciated being able to compare vocal qualities side by side, so to speak, as Maria Callas can be heard next to Mirella Freni and Victoria de los Angeles. Even if you are not familiar with these singers, this is the way to meet them. Maria Callas has a much darker, back of the throat tone. Mirella Freni is pure, clear and light floating up in the higher notes. You can almost visualize the singers as they place the notes in their throats and set them out in the air to vibrate.

5 out of 5 stars TAKES ME BACK FANTASTIC .......2007-05-13

I REALLY ENJOY THIS CD. IT TAKES ME RIGHT BACK TO WHEN THESE SONGS CAME OUT.ORLEANS IS SUCH A REFRESHING SOUND.

4 out of 5 stars Solid Seventies Sounds!.......2007-01-19

I always liked the hits Orleans had back in the seventies, especially "Still The One" and "Dance With Me" of course. I really wasn't familiar with their other music except for hearing a couple of their albums that friends of mine had. But after sampling other tracks online, I decided this was the best collection of Orleans music for me. I think there are more comprehensive collections available, but for the casual fan who recalls the hits and not much else, this is a very good place to start getting to know their music. The hits are here, and the other tracks are all good at least, some being very good and on a par with their best-known songs.
The sound quality is nothing special, but not bad either. Some tracks sound better than others but it is all very listenable, not getting in the way of the music.
Like one of their better songs says: "Let There Be Music"!

3 out of 5 stars Pleasant.......2006-11-30

At this late point in my life I'm darned if I'm going to wax TOO nostalgic for Orleans; they were part of a vanguard of "soft" rock that helped bury rock radio in an avalanche of pablum (along with, among others, Pablo Cruise, The Outlaws and everything Stevie Nicks did for Fleetwood Mac). But, yeah, I like some of their stuff, and "Dance With Me" always makes a tiny smile come to my face. Plus, as others have said, I'm delighted John Hall got elected and look forward to his being one of the folks to turn the Congress around.

5 out of 5 stars John Hall rocks!.......2006-11-11

I learned about Orleans on the Colbert Report's "better know a challenger" when Stephen Colbert interviewed John Hall, who was just elected to congress! I am suprised that I actually recognize some of these songs, but I just ordered this CD and am looking forward to hearing more of John Hall's music.

I actually watched John Halls' victory party live on a local news program, and he broke into song during his victory speech- he has an incredible voice! Then, after the election, he returned to the Colbert Report and performed the national anthem with Stephen Colbert. truly impressive! I expect his congressional career will be equally impressive!

5 out of 5 stars Congressman John Hall.......2006-11-10

For those who don't know, John Hall, one of the founders of Orleans, has just been elected to the U.S.Congress. Congratulations!! As Stevie Ray Vaughan would say, "the House is rocking."

In the short time since they grouped together a few years ago to form their sensationally successful trio, the Irish Tenors have already put out an impressive array of recordings and DVDs, including some bona fide gooseflesh-inducing live concert performances. So, if you still have the enviable pleasure of discovering these amazing vocalists--or want to turn a friend on to their musical charms--this compilation CD will do the trick nicely. It brings together such classics as "Danny Boy," "Toora Loora Looral," "Last Rose of Summer," and "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" (featuring John McDermott)--all rendered with the kind of passionate, heartfelt, and harmonious crooning that is their signature style, whether they're singing as an ensemble or as highlighted soloists. And even if you have the complete Irish Tenors, this anthology includes several numbers not found on their previously released CDs. Hard to think of a sweeter treat for a fan of singing too good to ever go out of fashion. --Sarah Chin

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Irish at it's best........2007-05-07

This album is really the number two album from this trio. It is very good and well worth the investment. The five star album by The Irish Tenors would have to be Heritage. Both albums rate high in my book.

5 out of 5 stars Irish Magic.......2006-08-21

This is my first CD of the Irish Tenors. And what a joy! I played it as soon as it arrived. I like the blend of their voices,the passion and enthusiasm they bring to this CD. What I find is a real treat is the words to all the songs are in the booklet.I love this CD.

5 out of 5 stars Just got your Kleenex.......2005-12-25

I suggest a box of Kleenex for each person in the room when you play this CD or VHS recording. Mom won't let me play it anymore because she...well, you know what I mean.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful!.......2005-12-12

When it's cold and frightful here, I play The BOYZ!

So wonderful. So much fun.

Up here in backwash Maine, there ain't much, believe me. But these guys are great. Sincere, care about what they're doing, true artists.

Ah, to go to Ireland again. Well, not unless the price of natural gas recedes!

5 out of 5 stars The Very Best of the Irish Tenors is just that!.......2005-01-22

This recording is wonderful. Ronan's "last Rose of summer" is unique, the Percy French medley shows all three in great voice, Finbar's Maggie is wonderful and the laurels have to go to Anthony for his magnificent rendition of "She moved through the fair", wow!!!!

Well worth buying.

The Fleetwoods were popular in the late 50's. I'm 57 and I can recall listening to their music on AM radio when I was less than 10 years old. I recall all of the words to several of their songs and was delighted when I bought this album.

I leave the critic of the music to the other posters, and I agree that the music is excellent. I don't five stars idly, and only for the best of the best. But this is a solid 4 star CD.

But the liner notes are incredible. This is a small book with all their songs and albums listed, dated, with composers, and the album it was on with pictures of the records. Wow.

I've kept my sony walkman around for years so I could listen to the album (on cassette). I am glad to see it on CD. As of writing this the album artwork pictured on the site is different from what is shipped.

4 out of 5 stars Good stuff, but a glaring omission.......2004-12-28

Basically a compilation of "Heartland", "Flame" and the "Babies" maxi single, this is a nice little collection to find its way to CD.

Of course, the huge miss here is not including the original version of "Send Me an Angel". The new version simply does not compare to the original.

I really enjoyed "Flame" and am grateful to find such great tunes included as "Face to Face" and "No Shame". Their take of "Babies" is surprisingly good too.

If you're looking for "Heartland", it has been reissued on CD. It's well worth seeking out that disk for the original version of "Send Me an Angel".
