Having earned his composing stripes after the 1960s, John Adams had the pioneering work of Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and Terry Riley close at hand as he ventured into his trade. And, while minimalism's historical continuum helps place Adams, he used Reich, Glass, and Riley (among others) only as a starting point. And here's proof: a 10-CD retrospective of nearly all Adams's recorded compositions on Nonesuch Records, the label that also issued Steve Reich 1965-1995 and Kronos Quartet: 25 Years. Adams's Harmonium, a choral work of startling energy and effervescence, appears here in a new recording, as do distillations of both The Death of Klinghoffer and Nixon in China, two path-clearing operas. Over the span of a career covered by Earbox, Adams has returned minimalism to traditional instrumental ensembles as well as to projects that at once advanced a political commentary and took that commentary back to orchestral audiences. And so, in far less time than his predecessors, Adams created works that now play like standard repertoire pieces: The Wound Dresser and Shaker Loops and the Violin Concerto--all of them are here. What these works demonstrate is a fierce creativity on the one hand and perhaps a hunger for commercial advances on the other. Adams may at times be a bustling free thinker, but he sounds ever conscious of what audiences are listening to. As for the works themselves, they remain every bit as daunting as when written.Some may object to particular selections. I Was Looking at the Ceiling and Then I Saw the Sky, for example, hardly ranks with Adams's best work. But this box isn't a mere best-of; it's an almost-all-of. At times terrifically American--especially in the news-aware operas and their narrative pragmatism--Adams well deserves a major box set, and its coverage is appropriate to his varied, stylistically diverse output. As with any large-scale retrospective, Earbox--which fairly bristles with Adams's new composition, Slonimsky's Earbox--has spots where fans might balk at the quality of the composer's writing. But it's got a fantastic accompanying booklet along with its many hours of inarguably modern and thoroughly listener-friendly music. --Andrew Bartlett

Nonesuch delivers.Again.......2002-11-27
harmonia in excelsis.......2001-11-12
Interesting, and likely intentional, is that two names in the extensive liner book fail to mention two great and glaringly obvious precursors: Carl Orff and Raymond Scott. Without "Carmina Burana," there would be no "Harmonium." Orff has his mark all over Adams's gifted and epic compositions. Similarly, though there are glib references to "cartoon music," the polymath engineer/musician Scott is a seminal figure in American music, and casts a large shadow over the witty juxtapositions and sense of play one loves in Adams's work. In all, an excellent career overview.
Our greatest living composer.......2001-07-22
That anyone can use the words "spoiled, overrated" amazes me. I emphatically disagree with "A music fan"'s review.
I don't think it's "mind-numbing"; I think it's spiritual and exciting. To me it's the most substantial music being created in our times.
I'm really sorry that anyone could fail to enjoy it, and really recommend others to listen for themselves.
Wonderful CD.......2000-04-02

Loving You is Easy.......2007-06-19
A Fantastic Album and a Return to Form!.......2006-10-19
The overriding theme of this album seems to be love, in all its forms and all the feelings that go along with it: joy, loss, pain, happiness, and everything in between. It's a fabulous record, however. Gone are the dance-beats of Wonderland (except for the second track, Feel the Pressure) and we're back to the sounds that made the Charlatans so excellent...great SINGING from Tim Burgess (here he uses the falsetto when appropriate, to much better effect that its constant use on Wonderland), great bass and drums, keyboards, and killer guitar licks and textures. And the songs....
The album starts with Up at the Lake, a rockin' little number. Feel the Pressure is probably my least favorite track on the disc...it sounds like it was left off of Wonderland and is pretty out of place here, although it's an enjoyable listen nontheless. As I Watch You in Disbelief reminds me of mid-1970s Bowie and is really exciting. Then we get to the meat of the album, which are the "love" songs, and they're all great! From the melancholy of Loving You Is Easy, I'll Sing a Hymn, Cry Yourself to Sleep, Try Again Today, and the somber album closer Dead Love, to the more upbeat rockers like Blue For You, High Up Your Tree, Bonafide Treasure, and Apples and Oranges, the album doesn't have a low point. Truly excellent and showing that the Charlatans are in no way slowing down at this point in their careers.
One note to make...you must get the UK edition of this album, which is the complete album. All other versions are missing the track I'll Sing a Hymn. Find it used or as an import, but that's the one to get.
FIVE STARS.......2006-07-04
