LOVE this Cd.......2007-03-08

Great music and soothing sounds for any babies and even older children. Our children really enjoy them in the car.

Excellent for babies and family.......2007-01-22

This CD is mandatory in the car and it relax everybody. It has classic music but without many sudden ups and downs. I would like to buy the whole collection next time.

A great CD for the car.......2007-01-04

We were given one from these series of CDs for babies and our daughter loves it, so we bought this one. It is a really nice collection of soft music and we usually play it in the car. A great addition to your baby's music collection.

Baby Neptune.......2006-03-18

I love all of the Baby Einstein DVD's, so the music CD has been just as good as the DVD's. I play it all the time when my son is in the car and it seems to calm him and keep his attention. I even listen to it in the car when my son is not with me. It is relaxing and soothing.

Baby Neptune Review.......2006-01-17

Our daughter loves the Baby Neptune CD. It makes for a relaxing musical interlude for long car trips.

Amazing music that you can't classify.......2007-05-14

This is jazz, rock, pop and classical all rolled into one tasty package.

I think that "Birth" is simply one of the best pieces of music ever written - that song by itself is worth this CD. The rest of the music is also sublime, moving and extremely memorable.

They don't make music like this anymore -so buy it and enjoy!

focused!.......2007-02-07

Critical reception of this LP was so poor it almost seemed like there was conspiracy among critics to get rid of the band. Uriah heep was renowned for this, but there were good reasons for that. I'll never understand why the critics hated this album. In my humble opinion, as a musician, song writer and baby boomer, this album is a masterpiece! I've listened to it thousands of times and will continue to enjoy it. If you are a fan of progressive rock and you enjoy classical music I really don't understand how you could not love this album. I have most of the "classic" prog rock albums of the 1970's in LP and CD format and I rate this among the best!

Of its Time.......2006-05-01

I've had this record since it came out and it was the subject of one of two strange Focus episodes in my life: Years later while sitting through a performance of the Bartok Concerto for Orchester I had this intense attack of deva vu: I racked my brain for days before realizing the brass chorale sections of that great piece were, shall we say, borrowed and rearranged by Focus for this album.

The other event was seeing Jan Akkerman ahead of me on line at Laserium in NY in the 70's around the time of Live at the Rainbow. He was the fastest guitarist I'd ever heard until then, at a time when things like that meant a lot more than they do today. Great band, unfairly maligned because of Hocus Pocus.

A prog rock genre-bender that predates evolution of Wyndam Hill style of jazz-new age artists by almost a decade.......2006-04-26

(My comments are as a result of purchasing the Japanese 20-bit K2 release in Tokyo, but it is the same album, and I don't emphasize sonic aspects of the particular pressing in my review--I only focus (no pun) on the nature of the music for those who have never heard Focus.)

This masterpiece opens with medieval instruments (lute, flute), then jumps into rocking boogie woogie 2nd piece, with syncopation and time siganture changes, piano & guitar with solid drums and bass behind, then in comes a Hammond organ. The instrumentals remind me a bit of Triumvirat crossed with a little straight-ahead Gentle Giant. Akkerman and Van Leer trade off between keyboards and guitars. Thougthful, well done (no pun intended).

The pieces sometimes have a Pat Metheny-esque light jazz feel that predates his arrival on the music scene by about 5 years, that mixes a jazzy guitar-driven chord structure with interspersed keyboard work (having renaissance, baroque, and medieval elements--harpsichord, lute, etc.) on "La Cathedral", then in comes a heavy drum beat and muted (somewhat funky) electric guitar exchanging riffs with a Hammond organ. Then, wafts of flute, almost Tull-ish in feel (on "Birth").

The song selection here in this Amazon web page is all buggled. The track listings are (as listed on the insert I have):

Delitae Musicae 1:13
Harem Scarem 5:52
La Cathedrale de Strasbourg 5:00
Birth 7:46
Hamburger Concert 20:20
Starter
Rare
Medium I
Medium II
Well Done
One for the Road
(these are *not* individual tracks on this CD)
Early Birth 2:54

This is really a great prog CD that strongly hints of different genres, some that won't evolve into ful-blown ones for another decade (the light jazz-new age movement that morphed into existence in the late 70s/early 80s with the likes of Wyndham Hill and Narada). But what these later blended genres don't have is a distinctly progressive rock underpinning. A bit of Tull, Gentle Giant, Triumvirat, but also a little bit of Pat Metheny, and others too numberous to name from the Wyndham Hill stable of artists of the 1980s (with the exception of Shadowfax, whose first W.H. album was released in 1976, I believe). Thoroughly confused?? Don't be. After all, it's a prog album from one of the unsung prog prioneers of the early 1970s. Akkerman and van Leer presage the evolution of Prog Jazz New Age crossover by almost a decade!

There is, of course, the yodelling and other vocal operatic devices (in the Concerto piece) that are characteristic of Focus, but they tend to add something unexpected and interesting, IMHO, and it's not overdone ad nauseam (another pun not intended). Enjoy!

Another dutch jewel of progressive rock... .......2005-09-03

This is my favourite album bye FOCUS. Mainly because this time there really was no moments of fillers or dull jams. Instead, the long title track contained just great flowing themes, never letting hold of high musical content. The short opener "Delitae Musicae" shows again Akkermans interest in medieval music compositions. "Le cathedrale de Strasbourg" is a slow, imaginative track with perfectly soothing, calm themes. "Birth" is a bit tougher, with great fluteplaying and refrain/verse. But the main act here is the title track of course. Its much calmer than other long tracks by the band, never really hitting it off and increasing in rhytm. But despite the slow paste, this flowing musical suite works just great. It has something uniqely european to its musical source, hard to put the finger on. Although the main themes might not be very complex, it noless works just fine, making this the best and most solid of all Focus' albums.

Customer Reviews:

Wonderful pieces, beautifully done, more complete renditions.......2005-12-12

This album contains four very fine Telemann compositions which are beautifully performed. They are more complete than some other CDs. The title "Viola Concerto" is given here in 4 movements 13:49 minutes. In "The Sensuous Baroque" (B0000058FG) only the 1st two are provided for 6:29 minutes--though the 1st movement is longer than in the "Viola Concerto" CD. Similarly in "The Best of Telemann" CD, only the 1st two movements are provided totalling 6:36 minutes. Similarly, this CD contains Overture in C major with 10 movements, suite in G major with 8, and overture in D major with 7. Total time is a pretty generous 66:28. Overall the music is very enjoyable and versatile. The accompanying brochure includes a short biography of Telemann by Nicholas Anderson. He notes that the Viola Concerto was one of the 1st to feature the viola--which Telemann gives "true solo status." I found the CD mostly joyful & uplifting, making it one of my favorites. The pieces display great instrumentation & orchestration with a variety of instruments--flutes, recorders, oboes, strings, continuo, etc. Enjoy!

Nice Telemann Collection.......2003-07-22

This collection of Telemann Concertos and Overtures is an excellent purchase for someone who loves baroque music and is interested in discovering this composer. Conductor Neville Marriner and the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields turn in first rate performances of these compositions. More serious collectors will be a bit annoyed at this title though. These four offerings are obviously from a variety of sessions, so why doesn't London/Decca reissue more of this material as "Double Decker" CDs instead of giving us bits and pieces on this "Jubilee" compilation. Reuniting the original sessions would be an altogether more welcome release than this title, which while well played, suffers from an overall lack of cohesion.

Spend your money elsewhere.......2006-01-26

I haven't even listened through the entire CD. I don't think I can bring myself to spend my time doing so. Where to begin. From the selections I've heard, the chorus sounds incredibly thin and weak, the organ overpowering them on numerous occasions. Part of the blame in that, however, goes to the mix...the choir not getting enough mic to balance out the instruments. That happens too often in chorus/instrument recordings and it drives me batty. The music selections aren't so inspiring either. You would do much better devoting your hard-earned dollars to Eric Whitacre's acappella choral works, or any of his contemporaries.
