A timeless masterpiece.......2006-04-05

I recently bought this album after reading very promising reviews on Amazon.com. From the first song it became clear that this is a classic. The album is ten years old but it could have been released yesterday or, for that matter, thirty years ago. This music is equally good to listen to on a romantic evening or a quiet morning. Absolutely timeless. Buy it.

ethereal...yet down to earth beauty.......2006-01-23

i'm not sure that i was fully prepared for the absolute new standard of beauty that was formed in my heart when i first heard this lovely little album back in 1996. when the first sweet sounds floated out of my speakers, time seems to have stood still until the moments passed after the final track had played. the guitars strum ever so gently and sweetly, and Rachel's voice is absolutely heaven sent. and it was really great to hear her voice in all it's natural glory (as compared to her processed vocal tracks on Slowdive albums). i was already a huge Slowdive fan, but Mojave 3's Ask me Tomorrow has such a warm, organic mellow sound that seems a bit easier to embrace, as compared to Slowdive's distant (yet brilliant) shoegazer sound. hey, honestly, i still like Slowdive better, overall. why? because their albums were consistently better. and this particular Mojave 3 album is the only one that i have fully loved. the others following are good, but not great as this one, in my opinion. so if you like music that sounds like a nice warm bath with a gentle haunting scent of honeydew and lilac on the wind, then slip this inside your stereo and drift away.

Love Me Today.......2005-06-04

A haunting and beautiful collection of songs that is more raw and less produced than their later, more polished work. Highly recommended.

Not just their debut: a musical landmark.......2004-08-10

Four months. That is how long is has been since I first listened to this beautiful creation by the former shoegazer band Slowdive that was reborn as Mojave 3 in the mid-nineties. This production from 1996 was not just their debut, but also a musical landmark for themselves and for music in general. It is one of those albums you can never get enough of, you cannot stop playing and you will always be able to go back to, because it is timeless yet powerful. This is something that can be hard to believe from an album that consists basically of voices, rhythm (slide and regular) guitars, piano and percussion. But it is so.

The two things that come to mind when I hear it are the quiet songs from Velvet Underground (for the voices), and Beck's 'Sea Change' (for the exquisite melancholy it conveys). I cannot say it enough: this is an album that needs to be a part of anyone remotely serious about music or life. If you don't believe me yet, just check out the sample for the opening track, and you will see what I mean.

A Masterpiece.......2004-02-18

From start to finish one of the greatest albums ever created. Heartbreaking, bittersweet, introspective, and unbearably beautiful. It's been four years since I discovered this album, and I still listen to it regularly.

Mournful, late-night soul mining from an English act led by singers Rachel Goswell and Neil Halstead. They've evidently spent time with the Cowboy Junkies' Trinity Sessions, since that album's minimal, ghostly mood is shared by these nine gentle originals. "Mercy," the closer, is the lone track that raises its voice beyond a soothing whisper. --Jeff Bateman

Calm, peaceful and serene all describe the music of Mojave 3.......1998-05-26

The songs of Mojave 3 can best be described as calming. The lovely melodies are reminiscent of clouds floating slowly across an ocean sky, changing their shapes almost imperceptibly as one watches them. "love songs" especially, brings this peace--the song which tells of someone's ideal woman, one who reflects the joy and love of those around her, as in the line "lovers all around her, she wears them like a jewel." The music flows from the artists as the love from this woman--they are one with it, they sing with a knowledge of beauty and serenity. The reason Mojave 3 is rated as an 8 and not a 10 is that as nice and pretty as the music is, it is not something many could listen to day in and out. It is delicate, and listeners sometimes need a bit of fire and truly happy, powerful music to balance Mojave 3 out.

Customer Reviews:

Two old favourites on one Cd.......2004-02-03

ROBERTA - While not Jerome Kern's finest score (SHOW BOAT wins that title hands down), ROBERTA does contain many of his trademark lovely melodies and at least two standards: SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES and YESTERDAYS. There are many more gems too including "Lovely To Look At" (written for the 1935 film version); "You're Devastating" and "The Touch of Your Hand."
The show has a weak book whiich has made it unrevivable but the songs have survived.

Decca's album dating from 1944 was the first complete recording of the score and sounds very much like a cast album from a 1940s revival. Alfred Drake and Kitty Carlisle are the leads with Paula Laurence there to handle the comedy numbers. Sound is quite good for such an old recording, and the CD booklet features a reproduction of the cover from the old 78 set.

THE VAGABOND KING - Rudolf Friml's 1925 operetta is not his finest (ROSE MARIE is) but it too conatins a good share of strong melodies: "Only a Rose"; "Love Me Tonight" and especially "Song of the Vagabonds."

Decca's 1951 recording covers these (and three others, plus and Overture and Finale) in a robust recording lead by Alfred Drake. Sound is high Fidelity mono (since by the time this album was made Tape had replaced acetate discs)and the reissue is welcome since there is no other version of VAGBOND KING available on Cd!

A classic score back on CD!.......2003-01-20

Musical theatre fans should be greatful to Decca Broadway for bringing the classic Jerome Kern/Otto Harbach score back on CD, now that the Columbia studio recording is out of print. Alfred Drake (fresh from his success from the landmark "Oklahoma!"), Paula Laurence, and Kitty Carlisle are in excellent voice and the score contains two classics "Smoke Get In Your Eyes" and "Lovely to Look At", originally for the 1935 film version. You'll also appreciate the witty lyrics of "Don't Ask Me Not to Sing", "Let's Begin", "Yesterdays", and "Alphi Beta Phi", which is not listed on the track list, but is at the end of the overture. Oh, did I mention the eight tracks of "The Vagabond King" with Drake and Metropolitan Opera great Mimi Benzell? A must-have for Broadway and operetta fans!
