There's no better example of American pop culture's hall-of-mirrors ethos than producer Alan Carr's relentlessly buoyant 1978 film adaptation of the stage musical Grease. Inspired by that decade's rampant 50's nostalgia, it now paradoxically evokes the campy 70's excesses that spawned it. That sense of recycled decades in collision is underscored repeatedly on this deluxe, double-disc Grease-fest, especially on the set's second disc of bonus materials that spans vintage singles of the title track (its instrumental B-side) and "Greased Lightnin'," some sing-along karaoke tracks, and a handful of alternately slick/techo-savvy remixes (originally produced for the film's 20th anniversary) that are testament to its enduring, era-defying appeal. The original soundtrack itself has been treated to a stellar digital remastering that fills disc one, and remains a joyous monument to camp, sheer ambition, and exuberant nostalgic illusions. Includes a slip-cased, double-fold-out case and new booklet with complete song lyrics. --Jerry McCulley

You 're The One That I Want.......2007-04-03

The complete Grease experience. This cd is a two disc-set with disc one being the complete soundtrack, while disc two is all bonus material including the popular Grease Megamix. Fans of the movie would want to make this cd an essential part of their music collection.

Prepare to be transported to Summer Nights.......2006-03-26

Well here we are with a great piece of history.

This album has not only captured the spirit of the movie but the essence of a 1970's version of the 1950's. I have seen this play live and yes some things are different. Yet I grew up on the movie. I even find myself singing some of the songs now and then. Of course you will never see me singing "Look At Me, I'm Sandra Dee." However I do keep this in my car as great driving music. This album is not you can pick apart and say things like missing songs, in the wrong order etc. It sounds and feels just right. There will be many versions yet this one is the Grease - Deluxe Edition [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED] [SOUNDTRACK] gives you more information about each of the tracks allowing you to feel that you have inside information and to feel that you know more of what went into the making of each song.

Great Soundtrack & Fun Extras from an Enduring Musical........2004-07-06

I'm enjoying listening to this great soundtrack that I loved as a child after a long hiatus. I had it on 8-track 25 years ago. So it's fitting that I should get the 25th Anniversary Edition on CD. The 24 songs from the movie are just as everyone remembers them, so I'll talk about the Bonus Disc, which contains 10 alternative versions of the songs plus 2 previously unreleased instrumentals from the film.

Track 1 on the Bonus Disc is an instrumental version of the film's theme, "Grease", written and produced by Barry Gibb. Frankie Valli's voice has been replaced by a saxophone. The chorus is vocal, but the voices are not those in the original song. You could use this as a sing-along version, as it would be easy to sing over the sax. Tracks 2-5 are officially sing-along versions. "Summer Nights" includes the chorus vocals from the film and sounds good. "You're the One That I Want" has new chorus vocals of questionable merit. "Sandy" is a new arrangement. It's not as good as the film version, but you can sing along. Track 6 is the single version of "Greased Lightning" that you may have heard on the radio back in the day. It's differs from the original in that the bad words have been replaced for radio airplay. Tracks 7-8 are previously unreleased instrumentals from the film. "Greased Up and Ready to Go" is lively. Tracks 9-10 are mixes that I occasionally hear on the radio. The "Grease Megamix" and the "Grease Dream Mix" are fun, if awkward. Tracks 11-12 are Martian Remixes of "Summer Nights" and "You're the One That I Want". They retain the original vocals, but set them to a Latin rhythm. They make pretty good dance tracks.

This 2-disc set isn't in a jewel case. The case is paperboard with 4 panels that fold out. This is inside of a clear vinyl slip case on which the tracks are written. This isn't convenient packaging. On the bright side, the case won't crack in the mail. Tucked inside one of the panels is a booklet that contains lyrics and credits.

The "Grease: 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition" is a terrifically fun soundtrack to one of the all-time great movie musicals. And for all those preteen girls who go wild over the movie with each new generation, the bonus material is perfect for parties and horsing around.

If You Love Grease, You'll Love This - Only 1 Major Flaw.......2004-05-15

Disc 1 is like the original album, which I also own. 1 major flaw is that "Love Is A Many Splendored Thing" cuts off at the very end of it! I was upset by this, hence the 3 stars instead of 4. Disc 2 is a lot of fun w/some remixes and sing-a-longs, all in all, I'm pretty happy with it being that I'm a HUGE Grease fan. If you like Grease, you'll love this, it's fun. Too bad when they "remastered" it, they didn't catch there 1 mistake. Oh well, at least I have it on another album.

brings back all sorts of things for me.......2005-02-16

i was going through an old box of photographs while looking for some to put in my graduation slideshow. then i went through my mother's desk looking for more and i find 'down the do re mi' and 'teaching peace' on a tape. it's probably been a decade since i last listened to this tape. i started crying listening to the grandfather's clock song, and even the silly songs brought back great memories. i remembered the lyrics to all the songs once they started playing again, which i suppose isn't too surprising because i probably drove my parent's crazy when i'd listen to this over and over for years. this is the music that all kids should have a chance to listen to and sing along with, not the worthless pop crap that is the only thing most of them are exposed to now.

If you see him perform, you will buy all his albums!.......2004-05-04

Although I used "Teaching Peace" in my preschool classroom, it wasn't until I saw/heard Red Grammer perform at a teacher's convention that I became a fan. Or should I say, groupie? He not only performs, he entertains. And better still - he offers a variety of ways to use his music with groups of children. His voice is wonderful (John Denver-ish, which is meant as a great compliment!)and many songs have just the right amount of silly to keep children of all ages entertained. My class loves the scat-like ending of Down the Do-Re-Mi that they can sing along to as much as they love acting out Down By the Sea. There are poetically beautiful songs (Land of the Silver Birch),camp classics (Rattlin'Bog), and motivational songs (Two hands, four hands). Wonderful.

Have all his Cd's...!!!!.......2004-03-27

Catchy, fun, singable tunes.......2003-01-22

My daughter's eyes (she's 4 months) light up as the first few notes of this CD start. They are great and catchy songs that are easy to sing and follow, with fun stories. One of our favorites!

songs you can't stop singing.......2001-05-30

For years I've been hearing about Red Grammar, but only recently have I listened to his songs. My sister-in-law introduced my three-year-old son to his music, and it was an instant hit. Down the Do Re Mi is terrific fun. We love every song. My son's favorite is "The Rattlin' Bog." Mine is "Down By the Sea." Every song is catchy and fun to sing along with. Each one captures the fun of being a child. We can't stop singing these songs, or listening.

A Great CD.......2005-08-27

This CD has some great songs on it. One of my fave things is that it has 2 re-mixes of one of my fave songs, Irene. Extreme Days is really good, Somebody's Watching is great, and, well, every song is really good. This is really worth your money!!!!

good.......2004-08-06

It's good but not as good as momentum but if you like Tobymac you should get it and get his new album when it hits stores in october

Surprised By Rap!.......2004-07-05

I'm 48 years old. I bought this CD because my pre-teen and teenage kids like rap music...not me. I was hoping to find music they would like and that expresses the Christian values I have (vs the murder and mayhem common in rap). This CD certainly fits the bill. However, to my surprise I found I liked the CD! Is this good rap music? I wouldn't know. My kids love it and I like it, which is all that matters to me. I like DC Talk too, and didn't realize until after I bought this CD that this is the same Toby. Keep up the good work Toby! I appreciate the help in staying in touch with my kids.

Fun and danceable!.......2004-06-21

My 1st experience with Tobymac. I didn't realize this was a remix cd when I bought it but I'm now glad that it was. The tracks are fun to listen to and don't sound like your typical techno beat remixes. Especially listen to 1. J-Train 2. Yours, 7. Get This Party Started, 13. Irene, and my personal favorite- 8. Extreme Days. This album gets me hyped up, I feel more energetic just popping it in! Awesome grooving cd.

Best Re:mix album of all Time.......2003-12-26

This is the best cd of all the DCtalk solo stuff it has 2 remixes of the best song IRENE J-Train also has 2 remixes featuring Kirk Franklin your remix collection is incomplete without MOMENTUM RE:MIX

Album Description

NAPPA Gold Award! Dr. Toy's Best Children's Vacation Product for 2004! Parents' Choice Approved AwardiParenting Media Award! Film Advisory Board Award of Excellence!

Drawing inspiration from children's picture books, "WHAT IS IT? Musical Math & Science" introduces children to the building blocks of math and science through 18 lively story-songs.

The songs acquaint young listeners to an eclectic, entertaining mix of musical styles, from jazz and reggae to folk and country. Several acclaimed World Music recording artists are featured: Jamaican "Father Goose," Ghanian Jordan Mensa, and Nicaraguan Jairo Sequeira, who performs two selections in Spanish.

With dynamic kid and grownup voices leading the way, anyone can sing along to these tunes, and bonus tracks of select instrumentals encourage listeners to create and sing their own lyrics.

A beautifully illustrated lyric booklet is included, detailing the name of the books that inspired each song and the math and/or science skills found within its lyrics. Lyrics and subject matter are appropriate for children 3-7 and beyond.

This is the second release in coordination with Mother Goose Programs (TM), an early education literacy and professional development series affiliated with the Library of Congress Center for the Book. "Mother Goose's Never-Ending Tea Party" is the first award-winning release in the series.

Really Fun Music.......2006-06-02

My 3and half year old daughter just loves this one! And I have to admit that I really like it too. In fact, it's one of the only children's CD's that I can listen to all the way through. Not only are the songs educational and interesting, they are also very creative and fun. A HUGE plus for this cd is the fact that many of the songs are completely different genres, from pop to rock to country to Calypso-Island as well as a song or 2 that have lyrics in Spanish and English and most songs include children of all ages singing or talking about whatever topic the song covers. The song "My Roots GO DOwn" is a beautiful acapella song sung by a group of children that has a very "Roots" sound to it. The more we listen to this one, the more songs we discover. My daughter and I can often be heard going about our daily activities while singing "Same As Can Be", "Muffin Spelled Backwards", "Father Goose Walk", "Little Duckie Duddle"... Gee there's just too many to list!
It's too bad that Amazon doesn't have music samples available for this CD. You may want to check you local library for a copy to preview. That's where we discovered it. I think one of the best ways to describe this one is that it's similar to the "Schoolhouse ROck" stuff... just updated for the new generation.
If you like a variety of musical styles and creative, fun and educational lyrics, this one is for you... er, I mean your kids!

Wonderful.......2004-06-25

I walked into a small CD/DVD outfit in NYC since they had a good collection of funk and jazz in the window. I find the most interesting collections of music at places such as this, and I was welcome by the sound of this CD playing. The lounge electronica mix of classic and modern made me buy it immediately. Without a doubt - a fabulous 'chill' cd.

Classical to catch the pop ear.... .......2004-09-30

Others have commented on the technical aspects of this; I'd like to talk about the cultural aspects of contemporary classical music and Miss Klass' interpretations (which are very beautiful...).

Myleene Klass is doing something the traditionalists have abandoned: she's making classical music accessible to a contemporary audience. With many kids, you say the words "classical music" and they turn off. They're not interested. But Myleene Klass, Vanessa Mae and others are trying to reverse that trend.

Classical traditionalists are missing the fact that classical music will cease to be a viable art form if new listeners and artists aren't attracted from each generation. Most classical musicians these days are working in the entertainment industry, producing soundtracks for games, movies and TV. There's not much market for classical composition outside of these industries. Fortunately, that's where today's budding musicians are getting exposed to classical music. But Beethoven and Mozart are not accessible to many people.

That's only one reason why artists like Myleene Klass are important. (The fact that she's technically competant and an excellent compositor is an added bonus.) Art must evolve, too...

Besides, Mozart and Beethoven were the hipster bad-boy pop stars of their day. They were sexy, cutting edge and daring. They would both hate the pillar they've been put on, and throw screaming tantrums at the dusty way they've been turned into inviolate idols. They jammed on other composer's music (AKA variations), just as modern electronic artists mash and mix contemporary work. I think they'd be happy to have Miss Klass and her wonderful versions of their work.

crap crap crap.......2004-09-24

i wish people like this would stop "making music." this chick, charlotte church, and andrea bocelli is WHAT"S WRONG with classical music. dumbing down bach for the masses is disrespectful to all true classical musicians, composers, conductors... etc. this is such crap.

I've had Goosebumps for weeks now.......2004-06-05

When I first heard this amazing collection of both classical music and a little but of hip-hop, I was mesmorized. I listen to this day in and day out. Beautiful songs, consisting of Toccata and Fugue, For the Love of a Princess (From Braveheart), Allegretto, If You're Not the One, The Heart Asks Pleasure First, Moonlight Sonara, Krwling (From Linkin Park), Pavane- Moving On, Adagio (Edgar Cello Concerto), Sarabande, Now We are Free (From Gladiator), Gymnope`die- Live the Dream and a BONUS TRAK, the classical version of Moonlight Sonata. Each and every one of these songs has a little twist on it, by Myleene Klass. As a classical music lover, and a hip-hop fan, this is the perfect CD for everyone wanting to listen to something new. I myself am a classical music player, I have played the piano for 14 years and have never heard anything like this. So take it from me, this will be loved by children and adults alike.

Splendid collection of Klassical music from Myleene Klass.......2004-02-11

Formerly of the now-dissolved British bigender pop group Hear'Say, Myleene Klass turned from post-Spice type pop to classical, a big shift considering the genres involved. Her instrument's the piano and she does have a symphony orchestra backing her up. Her selections straddle classical, pop, and even soundtrack scores, with arrangements done by herself and Nick Patrick, and bolstered by the Telephilmonic Orchestra.

"Toccata" is Johann Sebastian Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor. Accompanying the symphony and Myleene is a light drum machine not as boisterous as Massive Attack.

Myleene next gets the ivories around the sad but romantic "For The Love Of A Princess," the love theme from Braveheart, one of three soundtrack themes she does. The orchestra's backing helps the atmosphere of this song, as does the light drum machines towards the end. "The Heart Asks Pleasure First" from The Piano, and Michael Nyman's score, is truly a showcase for Klass for the first minute before the orchestra kicks in. And I never saw Gladiator, but she does a Myleene Mix of "Now We Are Free", meaning some light drums and a Benedectine-type choir.

"Allegretto" is from Karl Jenkins' Palladio and this is more conventional than the way left-field version done by Bond on their second album Shine. Done with lots of feeling and uptempo without the oontsa-oontsa techno beats.

Myleene does an instrumental arrangement of Daniel Bedingfield's hit single "If You're Not The One." Her piano playing matches Bedingfield's falsetto in the chorus section. I like this better than the original due to the lush string arrangements. I like her rendition of Linkin Park's "Crawling," titled here "Krlwng," but then again, I haven't heard the original and never intend to. I'll bet it's way better. Light drum machines present in this one.

"Pavane-Moving On" is taken from Gabriel Faure's Pavane, Opus 50, a melancholy and reflective piece, that is until the orchestra takes over in the second minute.

"Adagio" is taken from Edward Elgar's Cello Concerto in E Minor, Opus 85 and "Sarabande" from Georg F. Handel's Suite No. 11 in D Minor. The strings oft-times sound like what Bond did with Zeppelin's "Kashmir", a fierce jerking back and forth of strings.
There are two versions of Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata," one which the light drum programming, the other, a bonus track, without. Both showcase Klass's piano work.

"Gymnopedie-Live The Dream" is taken from Eric Satie's Gymnopedie No. 1, which Charlotte Church used for "From My First Moment" on Enchantment. However, Klass whispers some words as she plays in the beginning: "Did you ever stop to think what gives you strength to live another day? The breath in your body, the kisses you feel. It's all so simple, but never real. Maybe the strength you strive to show is so deep within. But it's true, I know. Welcome love, however far it seems. Go live the dream."

I've devised a Cartesian system for the wave of neo-classical music prevalent right now with two dimensions, vocal/non-vocal and progressive (mixed)/conventional. Despite the brief spoken words in "Live The Dream", Klass is more on the non-vocal/conventional quadrant but due to her covering soundtrack scores and popular tunes and the use of drum machines, she's not as far to the right of the quadrant as Eroica Trio, whereas neo-classics like Brightman, Church, and Hayley Westenra would be in the progressive/vocal quadrant, diametrically opposite Eroica Trio. However, Klass has the looks of a Maxim or FHM model, so if we use that in the measure of progressive vs. conventional, that might move Klass more left of the axis.

A worthy debut from Myleene Klass, helping to define the face of neo-classical today, and that's not just Hear'say (or do I mean hearsay?), that's plain truth.

Best Contemporary Classical Ever.......2004-01-17

This album is surprisingly beautiful (I discovered this CD thru a friend's recommendation-thanx MO, it's worth the shipping,lol). I liked the movie themes a lot especially the gladiator theme (the chants and the fusion of instruments made this soundtrack exceptional). Her version of Toccata is even better than Vanessa Mae(i hope i'm right).I think the best track in this album is either Gymnopedie or Pavane(It's the best version i ever heard to be honest).Great for chill-out moods, great when your stuck in the traffic, great when you're preparing a meal or having a meal. There's also a surprise cover of linki'n park's "Crawling" which i find very powerful and moving. Obviously, the tracks are composed of popular old tunes but given new interpretations. It seems that these are the pianist's favorites and as such, it is subject to be one's own
