As fans of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy know, each film exists in two versions: the theatrical one and the extended one that appeared on DVD. This luxurious box set--which also comes with a detailed essay on the movie's musical themes--features the full extended score, so many cues not on the CDs of the individual movies are included. Granted, the majority of listeners will be perfectly happy with the shorter versions of the scores--it's a safe bet that most people can live without hearing, say, Ian McKellen's 35-second-long ditty "The Road Goes Ever On" at the beginning of "Bag End," or Viggo Mortensen's performance of his own composition, "The Song of Lúthien," within the track "The Nazgûl." But if you're a completist and/or a devotee of Howard Shore's pounding tympani and overwhelming choral compositions (featured particularly prominently on disc 3, a large chunk of which is devoted to a battle scene), then this set is a dream come true. Audiophiles should note that the fourth disc, a DVD, offers the score in Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. Fire up those speakers so the whole shire can hear. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Album Description

An epic film score receives epic treatment with The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring/Complete Recordings. Released for the first time on CD, the complete score for the first film in the Lord of the Rings trilogy contains more than 180 minutes of music on three CDs plus a DVD-Audio disc of the entire score in Surround Sound. Breathtaking and majestic, the 2001 Oscar and Grammy winning score compsted by Howard Shore also includes Enya's Oscar nominated "May It Be." For fans of any of The Lord of the Rings films, the Fellowship of the Ring/Complete Recordings is an essential experience.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful.......2007-06-15

I picked up this set because I am both a LOTR fan, movies and books and I need music to help me work. There are some tracks that I skipped over, like the short little ditties in the bar, but many of the songs, such as the Elvish chants are easy to get lost in - its just too bad they don't last longer. The packaging really is well done, though the DVD disc was loose when I received it in the mail, but unharmed. I will have to wait until the price on the second set comes down a little more, but I can't wait for ROTK.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome.......2007-06-12

This is by far the editon to get if you loved the lord of the rings soundtrack. It has every song on it from the extended edition. and the DVD-A version is very nice.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Music tracks from Movie.......2007-05-03

Brings the movie back as you listen to the full version of the track.

3 out of 5 stars Complete?.......2007-04-07

This CD collection is wonderful; it has much of the material from the movie that was only included in the extended edition DVD, but it is far from complete. While it does have the complete version of "The Passing of the Elves" and two versions of "The Road Goes Ever On", many of the songs are highly incomplete and inferior to the originals. "Aniron," the theme for Aragorn and Arwen performed by Enya, is incomplete and the lyrics are hard to match to what is being sung. The sound quality for this song is even worse on the accompanying DVD, which is supposed to have all of the music in "superior sound". The song "Prophecy" is reduced to two barely-audible lines and "May It Be" is shortened and different than the original. $60 for this when there are more complete songs on the original soundtrack is ridiculous.

3 out of 5 stars Great Collection, Poor Packaging.......2007-04-03

I realy can't add to what others have said about this set, the music is simply the best LOTR soundtrack collection out there! It is all here, and the contents of this set will make any LOTR fan happy and the music DVD is a great one disc addition if you want to hear the entire score in one sitting (to which I have done a number of times already).
My only complaint is the somewhat flimsy cardboard box that houses the contents of this musical treasure. Mine came damaged, and considering the price, I expected better packaging. This is a minor quabble on my part and NO, I havent returned it due to the fact that the music itself Is what I truly treasure, It just would have been nicer to have recieved it undamaged.

4 out of 5 stars Wonderful, but not my first choice.......2007-04-07

I believe this was the first recording of Elijah in English that used an "international" conductor and some international singers. Fruhbeck gives a good, dramatic sweep to the piece, with some wonderful dramatic moments. This is an old fashioned performance, with only a solo quartet, and if there is a semi-chorus, I can't tell the difference. This means that the soprano is the Widow, and an Angel, the mezzo the Angel and Queen Jezabel, etc. You really should have a libretto, but you don't get one at this price.
Fischer-Dieskau roughens up his voice for the role, and therein lies a problem. The voice spreads and his diction suffers because of it; that and his unidiomatic pronounciation, with far too many rolled "r"s. He does the drama well, but what works well in lieder works here less well on the large scale. Odd, given his success as on opera singer (check out his Iago), that here he frequently comes off blustery.
Dame Gwyneth Jones belies her reputation and gives a contolled, dramatic performance, using her "edge" to advantage in "Hear Ye, Israel". Gedda's diction is amazing, with exactly the right color for this literature, and projecting a little more blood than an English tenor.
Dame Janet Baker is my star in this performance. Dramatic, heart-rending when need be, and in wonderful voice. She'll chill your blood when she tells the people of Baal to "slaughter him, do what he hath done!".
And as for the people of Baal, the Philharmonia Chorus is wonderful. Incisive and dramatic, with beautiful tone. I could do without the trick of the boy choir for "Lift Thine Eyes", and I miss the small ensembles, but all in all a fine performance, and good recording, circa 1968.
First choice in English, Daniels/Terfel: better Elijah in Terfel, better recording, more authentic orchestra, small vocal ensembles (as per the score) but inferior women (including Fleming: beautiful tone, but where's her head?). In German, it's Sawallisch/Adam all the way.
But if you're singing Elijah, and have a score, this is a good choice.

5 out of 5 stars THE BEST recording of the BEST oratorio ever..........2006-08-15

Okay, I'm gonna admit I'm biased- I first sung in the chorus of Elijah when I was 14 and it made a BIG impression on me!
This recording is in every way wonderful. Starting with Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. He IS Elijah to me. His singing is perfection. He has amazing phrasing and his diction makes it possible to understand the lovely, inspired libretto to this heavenly music. There are so many pieces that are ephemeral, but a couple of my favorites are: #14, Lord God of Abraham and #37, For the Mountains shall Depart. Dieskau does a great job of what I think of as compassionate, heartfelt singing. His interpretation sounds like the voice of God himself. It has a quality of kindness and yet he sounds just as convincing reprimanding the people of Baal. He is the true highlight of this recording.

That said, the rest of the cast is wonderful as well. Gwyneth Jones has a lovely, silvery voice that has a clarion bell-like tone that rings over the large orchestra with ease. She has occasional "misfire" but is a consistent performer. Dame Janet Baker and Nicolai Gedda both perform at a consistently lovely level. The orchestra and chorus are both wonderful. #15, Cast thy Burden upon the Lord, #32 He that Shall Endure to the End, and #38 Then Did Elijah are all highlights.

All said, for me the main reason to get this recording is Dieskau's Elijah- after all, he's the main character. But don't forget the lovely music. This story is exciting and passionate and sacred all at the same time. For me, it's the best oratorio that has a moving story and great music too.

4 out of 5 stars Too bad there are so few recordings of Elijah.......2006-07-03

This is a good recording of an oratorio that deserves more attention. The chorus and soloists are very good--I just wish Fischer-Diskau wouldn't slide around so much in singing the title part!

Amazon.com essential recording

This 1972 collection set the bar it took years for Raitt to clear again. Moving easily between sensitive singer-songwriter and bawdy blues-mama roles, the blazing redhead proved she was a talent to watch on several fronts. Raitt demonstrated a keen instinct for finding suitable material, adopting Jackson Browne's "Under the Falling Sky" and Eric Kaz's "Love Has No Pride" as if she'd penned them herself. The honeyed vocals and slashing slide guitar heard on Give It Up identified Raitt instantly to anyone who encountered this album. Unfortunately, it would be nearly two decades before many did catch on to her appeal. --Steve Stolder

Album Description

Her classic sophomore album from 1972 that influenced generations of women in rock. Features 'Love Me Like A Man', 'Under The Sky Falling' & 'Love Has No Pride'. Rhino/Warner Bros. digitally remastered.

5 out of 5 stars Bonnie Fan Since 70s.......2007-05-04

I can't even imagine my single life in the 70s & 80s without Bonnie and these songs, oh my gosh how I adore this woman. We used to always see her at Wolf Trap (in VA) along with John Prine, wow, I feel so lucky to have been there at the right time. There's no one more soulful, she can belt em out and also just KILL your heart with tenderness... she's just so so so so COOL, and I always have to sing along to her songs at the top of my lungs even as my teenagers run screaming from the room (not from Bonnie, from me)...this is such a dumb review, I just don't have words enough to describe Bonnie Raitt. I can tell you that at one of her concerts at Wolf Trap, probably early 80's, I broke my foot falling drunkenly down the stairs and stayed for the rest of the concert so I wouldn't miss any of the show. She's just one of a kind and a very generous musician, too, always giving the spotlight to other people. I love her. And so will you if by some horrifying chance, you've never heard her before. All of her albums are perfect, but this one may be my ultimate favorite.

5 out of 5 stars Don't EVER Give This One Up..........2006-06-24

What a classic album. So many great songs and in very diverse styles. I don't think you'll find one filler on this one - easily her best album. It has beautiful ballads, rockin' blues, a touch of Dixieland jazz, little bit of everything. We used to wear the grooves out of this one back in our college days back in the early-mid 70's. And the one thing you absolutely had to love about Bonnie, she pulled no punches. A real gutsy gal and solid musician. Top shelf.
Dennis A

5 out of 5 stars love it!.......2006-02-27

It is refreshing to read reviews from fans who were actually there when this CD was first released (as an album, ofcourse) back in '72, because listening to it today, one can also feel the same adoration for Bonnie. My stance is that, if you truly call yourself a music lover, then this CD is a must. It is gorgeous to listen to from the first song to the last. The musicians are in mint condition, and I must I agree with a reviewer who stated that this CD gives you the feeling of a casual studio session with everyone very relax and just there to make beautiful music. It is mainly Blues tinge but you will notice some New Orleans style dixieland blues in "Give it Up or Let Me Go" and "You Got to Know How." It makes you think that Bonnie is from the South, but she was actually born in Burbank, CA back in 1949. Wow, She a real Gem!!!

5 out of 5 stars This is it, folks........2005-03-04

Bonnie at her best, before she tried disco and pop. No white chick could touch Bonnie in those days for true soul. I had all her albums - this one was never topped. And if you don't stop whatever you're doing and get all misty-eyed at "Stayed Too Long At The Fair," your heart ain't beatin'.
I saw her a few months after this album came out, at the Cellar Door in D.C., on stage with only Freebo the bass player (John Prine was the opening act). Fantastic night - those were the days.

5 out of 5 stars Classic blues-rock album.......2005-01-24

Bonnie's first love is the blues but her music incorporates other influences including pop, folk and R+B. With three self-penned songs (Give it up, Nothing seems to matter, You told me baby) and seven other songs from diverse sources, this is one of Bonnie's finest albums, showing how she has pulled those different musical styles together.

The covers include the R+B classics I know (Barbara George) and If you gotta make a fool of somebody (originally recorded by James Ray, it became a major UK hit for Freddie and the dreamers, though I suspect that it was James Ray's version that inspired Bonnie's outstanding cover). Other great covers include Love has no pride (an Eric Kaz song that I first discovered on Linda Ronstadt's album, Don't cry now) and Under the falling sky (Jackson Browne).

This album, along with Bonnie's other early albums, did not receive the attention it deserved at the time, but as her reputation has grown, more people are learning just how good Bonnie's music really is - all of it, but especially those early albums.

5 out of 5 stars Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

5 out of 5 stars Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

5 out of 5 stars Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

5 out of 5 stars Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

Album Description

Kona, Hawaii: think lush natural landscapes, divine inspiration and kids with nothing to do except find the next rage and invent slicker ways to pick up girls. Add metal and rock/dancehall influences to Hawaiian spirit, humor and ridiculously good looks - and you got Pepper. "Give'n It" was originally recorded in late 1997 in the only studio that existed in Kona at the time. Pepper caught the attention of fans from all corners, particularly Volcom Entertainment. After packing up all their belongings and heading to California, Pepper scored dates with established artists like Born Jamericans, Shaggy, Eek-A-Mouse, Burning Spear, Pato Banton & Secret Hate, were featured on XBox and Transworld Surf & Snow games, and played an entire run on the Warped Tour 2001, paying their dues by building the stage and pumping their signature Kona-dub-rock into the hearts of fans from state to state. It is edgy, lush, rocking, melodic, innovative, heart-grabbing and a good ride. It is Pepper.

3 out of 5 stars Fun music, but not very original.......2006-12-15

I realize I'm giving this three stars and everyone else has given it five. You'll have to decide for yourself, but I think my score is more justified. Pepper is a fun band with a classic "feel-good" ska/reggae/punk sound ... like Sublime as others have noted. But if you are, or where, a Sublime fan you will ultimately find Pepper disappointing. Not because they are bad, in fact they are pretty fun, but because they never get beyond "fun." Sublime had a certain edge (mostly misogynistic), and unpredictability that Pepper lacks. Maybe with time they'll move past repetitive imitation and find something that makes them unique and interesting. I imagine there ought to be something unique about living and working in Kona?

Don't take all this as a negative review. As long as you don't expect too much (and who really expects a CD to change their life?), Pepper is a good listen. I recommend you try it if you enjoy Sublime and need something new to listen to.

5 out of 5 stars Hidden Treasure.......2006-03-29

I had never heard of Pepper until I was in Hawaii this last week and saw them at the Waikiki Shell with 311. They were an awesome band to see live, and if your looking for a sound that isn't blared all over the radio these guys are it. They do definetly remind me of Sublime, but with thier own Hawaiian twist. I recommend thier music to anyone. They should be on tour this summer with 311 so go and check them out.

5 out of 5 stars Don't know what you're missing.......2005-03-30

Pepper is one of the sickest bands out there. I finally got to see them in concert on Saturday the 26th. I have all their CD's but it was awesome to see them in concert. You WILL NOT be disappointed with Pepper.

5 out of 5 stars Darren.......2004-11-07

Ok ive heard some of they're stuff and ive read the editors description of Kona Hawaii, and seeing that ive been there hand have hung out with the locals of the town, its all very true. I am about to purchase this album because i really love the reggea scene that i saw while I was in Kona.

5 out of 5 stars Brad Nowell may be dead, but his musical influence lives on........2003-10-31

For everyone who was bummed when Sublime ended, your prayers have been answered. This band has a great sound to them and is similar to Sublime and Slightly stoopid. Keep an open mind and you'll find there is alot of music out there to enjoy.

4 out of 5 stars Slim's debut is his best album - R.I.P.......2007-05-12

The years is 1998 and No Limit is the sound of the south pumping out 2-3 cd's a month and Soulja Slim's time came. As far as quality, like most of the No Limit albums I have (about 20), its a 4 star album, probably in the upper half of the labels albums that I own. Packed with songs and label mates as guests,(like all No Limit albums of the time), Slim delivers 20 songs for you. Guests are on 15 of the 20 songs so you don't get a ton of Slim. 3 songs I skip, 4-7 are ok, the rest are good - a few being real good. Production is nice like most of the No Limit albums that the Beats By the Pound Crew do. Carlos Stephens and KLC each do 6 songs, Craig B does 4 songs, Mo B Dick & O'Dell each do 2 songs and DJ Darryl does 1 song.

3 out of 5 stars A few notches above the average for No Limit.......2007-01-16

No Limit albums are like baseball cards. They're mostly interchangeable, but once you buy your first, a funny urge to collect them all wells up in the back of your skull. Of course, music as pure product has it's own issues. I wouldn't bother reviewing most of the No Limit output from the late nineties, simply because I doubt I could string enough words together to make it worthwhile. "Give It To 'Em Raw" stands a bit above it's peers. Sure, Beats By The Pound handles full album production, and yes, the booklet is filled with advertisements for upcoming discs. It has a standard Pen & Pixel cover, and the usual filler that clogged all rap albums at the time is present. The difference is Soulja Slim buried some gems here amongst the rubble, and even if Southern rap doesn't appeal to you, this is one record from below the Mason-Dixon Line that might be worth a spin or two.

"You Got It (II)" has those really whiny synths that Dr. Dre used to great effect on "Efil4Zaggin". Now, BBTP isn't Dre by any stretch, but they manage to conjure the same hazy menace. In fact, the thickness of Slim's accent, the fact that most of us Yanks won't be able to catch every word he says, makes it all the more unsettling. Another standout is "Anything", with Slim and Mia X trading sex rhymes over a dark bass-and-synth driven beat. "Law Brekaz" is downright claustrophobic, and Slim's paranoia about being robbed or killed is so palpable it could ride shogtun with "My Mind's Playing Tricks on Me". Sadly, paranoia is occasionally justified, as Slim was murdered just a few years after "Give It To 'Em Raw" dropped. It's hard to keep that out of your mind even on the lighter tracks, like the Parliament derivative "No Limit Party". No less than sixteen emcees (and that's being kind to some of these cats) tear through eight bars apiece in about five minutes. Works perfect as a closer.

There is a lot of midi-sounding junk. Most of the lyrics outside the highlighted tracks tend toward the "streets are dangerous/stay strapped/dealing/using/I'm negative because of my screwed up childhood" variety. Public Enemy or Main Source this isn't. However, I'd gladly take negative mental baggage over mindless boasting of material goods (Baby, I'm looking atchoo) any day. $20 bucks for a used disc is ridiculous, so try rooting around at your friendly neighborhood flea markets. RIP Soulja Slim. Thanks for the music.

4 out of 5 stars one of best no limit cds.......2005-10-17

one of the tighter no limit cds from its era, soulja slim was one of the best rappers master p ever signed up there with c murder,silkk,mac,and mr.serv on,this cd is one to pick up, check out the following songs, after you listen to these i think you either will agree, or buy the album. 1.from what i was told, 2.street life,7.head buster,8.me and my cousin,12.imagine,14.wootay,18.hustlin is a habit,20. n.l. party, street life is the best song on the cd though

5 out of 5 stars soulja a real legend.......2005-01-07

i think this one soulja slim's best albums the beats are great and the lyrics are great if you a soulja fan you should pick up this album R.I.P soulja slim a.k.a. James Tapp

4 out of 5 stars A Diamond in the Ruff.......2004-12-08

Master P didn't know who he had at the time until it was to late for P to sign him to the label in 01'. I knew of Soulja before this album came out and so naturally I had to get this album. Soulja's songs were different from the No Limit roster it wasn't the same i'm a soulja line, he translated the streets in real time talk and didn't hold nothing back. When C-Murder and Mac appeared on this album it was bananas. You could have had an instant group.

5 out of 5 stars with a song in my heart/pal joey sound tracks.......2007-03-31

I actually was so pleased to see a CD available because I have been longing for the movie "with a song in my heart" to become available on VHS and then on DVD, and it never has, so now at least I can enjoy the songs from the movie. The cast track from Pal Joey was just an added bonus.

5 out of 5 stars With A Song In My Heart CD.......2007-03-19

I saw the film, "With A Song In My Heart" when I was twelve or thirteen years old and have wanted the sound track for many years. As an impressionable teenager in the 1950s, I have collected over time many of the films from that time on VHS or DVD, to satisfy my memories of the period. I regret that this particular film is not available on VHS or DVD, but, this CD is the next best choice. It is really enjoyable to hear the richness and depth of the voice of Jane Froman, who was one of the best singers of the time. I can still recall many scenes from the film and this CD revives the memories so well.

4 out of 5 stars A Jane Froman double feature........2006-09-16

This DRG CD pairs two recordings starring Jane Froman.

WITH A SONG IN MY HEART

Susan Hayward played Jane Froman in the film but Froman herself dubbed the vocals. This album of songs was originally issued as a 10" Lp. None of the tracks are taken from the film: They are all studio re-recordings. Later, Capitol re-released it as a 12" LP with two extra songs added. It is that expanded [program included here. Froman is in great voice, though the orchestrations are overly lush and string heavy. Still, the songs include such standards as "It's a Good Day", "Get Happy", and "Embraceable You" making for an enjoyable mini-concert.

PAL JOEY

Capitol's cast album of the 1952 revival has long been a collector's item. The original Lp was deleted in 1960 and did not resurface until Broadway Angel released it on CD (briefly) in 1993. As the stars of the revival Harold Lang and Vivienne Segal had already made a studio cast album for Columbia - an album that helped inspire the revival - they were unable to re-record their songs for Capitol, and the label turned to Jane Froman and Dick beavers to fill in. The revised orchestrations sound dated now, but here is a chance to hear Elaine Stritch singing "Zip" and to enjoy the lusty voice of Helen Gallagher early in her career.

In the end it's the WITH A SONG IN MY HEART selections (making their debut on CD here) that make this CD worthwhile. For PAL JOEY the studio recording (available from SONY) is preferable, however if one is so inclined you can assemble your own cast album of the '52 revival by combining tracks from both releases.

4 out of 5 stars "Pal Joey's" Pal.......2006-07-30

While the legubrious and over-orchestrated songs from the film "With a Song in My Heart" are typical of their era (and Jane Froman's stilted renditions are what once stood for emoting) the "Pal Joey" cast recording is an absolute delight. The orchestrations are bouncy and jazzy in a way that has long been forgotten, and the performances (except for the aforementioned Ms. Froman, whose Vulgnarian renditions are at times quite disconcerting, and who hits the sonic notes like lazer beems but misses the emotional ones by a country mile) are exceptional. Helen Gallagher deserved her Tony from the evidence of this recording, with Elaine Stritch not far behind her. But the overall impact surpasses any recording of "Joey" including the historic one that lead to this revival. There's energy, intensity and a whole lot of fantastic song writing (leave it to to Rogers and Hart) to satisfy any musical theater fan. A must have for anyone who loves "Old Broadway."

4 out of 5 stars another great twofer from DRG.......2004-01-21

Jane Froman was one of the top vocalists of her era. Froman's greatness is celebrated in this new 2-on-1 album, which comprises the film soundtrack of WITH A SONG IN MY HEART as well as the 1952 Broadway revival cast album of PAL JOEY.

WITH A SONG IN MY HEART was the life story of Jane Froman, with the lovely Susan Hayward in the lead role. Froman herself supplied the singing for the film. Numbers include "It's a Good Day", the bittersweet and humorous "They're Either Too Young or Too Old", "Blue Moon", "Get Happy", "Tea for Two" and "I'm Thru with Love".

The 1952 Broadway revival of PAL JOEY was the result of the huge success of a studio album released by Columbia the year before (which featured Vivienne Segal reprising her original role of Vera and Harold Lang as Joey). Segal and Lang headlined the new revival with Helen Gallagher (SWEET CHARITY, HAZEL FLAGG) as Gladys Bumps and Elaine Stritch (ON YOUR TOES, GOLDILOCKS) as reporter Melba Snyder.

Having already recorded their roles for the Columbia album, Segal and Lang saw little need in re-recording them for the revival album on the Capitol label. Instead, the roles of Vera and Joey were covered by Jane Froman and Dick Beavers.

The cast album suffers on many levels. First, the absence of Segal and Lang is quite distracting, and secondly the new Overture can't even compare with the scintillanting original.

The Columbia studio album is the version to buy in addition to this, though both albums have their strong and weak points. As per usual, Elaine Stritch brings her impressive and formidable comic timing to the fore in the show-stopping "Zip", and Helen Gallagher's silvery voice is perfect for "That Terrific Rainbow".

A fine addition to your collection. [DRG 19054]

5 out of 5 stars Love it!.......2007-07-12

I think this is a great mainstream hip-hop song. I like Timbaland and Nelly Furtado and the combination is great. Again (this is their second song together) they are great. Justin Timberlake is good too. This song sounds great in the car or in the club. I also like the intro "is it goin is it goin" This song grew on me and I like it more and more each time I listen to it. Thumbs UP!

5 out of 5 stars Get It & Want More!.......2007-05-17

Timbaland presents music that is sure to "give it to you"! This comes housed in a slim-line jewel case and features the title track in Radio Edit, Instrumental, and Enhanced Video along the track Come Around from his album "Timbaland Presents Shock Value". The R&B, rap, and catchy addictive hooks found in this CD are a nice mesh of sounds sure to get your juices flowing for more.

Give It To Me featuring Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake Radio Edit (3:33) has a totally diverse cultural mixture of elements. Nelly's vocals shine as she begins her singing portraying much confidence, sex appeal, and dance invitational lyrics. Timbaland steps in to a nice deeper sounding vocal pitch adding spice, as the drums, bass-lines, and beats just flow nicely. And when you think it can't get better Justin sings his part adding a nice cute higher sounding pitch to blend all three styles. Thus creating a joining of the cultures in some unique mysterious way quite fascinating!

Give It To Me Instrumental (3:55) is the same, as the previous track but has no sung vocals. For fans of singing then this may be to your liking. Despite the lack of vocals, the melody is never tiring, monotonous or boring for those who enjoy drums, and vast dance sounds.

Come Around featuring M.I.A. (3:57) has to be my favorite track for the diverse cultural sound. The dance elements are fresh, and the production is quite unique. Timbaland challenges his object of affection, adding electronica vocals, echoes and new era techno effects.

5 out of 5 stars Unbelievable.......2007-06-29

What a fantastic album. Every track has the merit enough to hold its own as a single. In a time where modern albums can, at the most, have one to two descent songs; The Brian Jonestown Massacre rips another one out that simply spits in the face of the corporit music business. Buy this album, and the rest of the BJM collection. My recommendations: Methodrone, Their Satanic Majesty's Second Request, and if on a budget, Tepid Peppermint Wonderland.

4 out of 5 stars This Is Why I Love Them.......2006-08-30

For drug-drenched, psychedelic modern alternative rock, you just can't beat the BJM. Well, almost. Their pals, the Dandy Warhols come pretty close. I think this is one of the BJM's strongest efforts. "Sue" is my favorite track from this album. It's Anton's homage to the Velvet Underground's "Heroin". Yes, it's a long one but not a minute is wasted. Some of the BJM's albums tend to be hit and miss affairs so it's a good idea to listen to the samples provided by Amazon.com. but this one is quite consistent.

5 out of 5 stars for beginners.......2005-10-10

the bjm are an amazing band.

give it back is their 5th album, and is probably the most mentioned and played in the recent film "dig!". Personally, my favortite bjm album is take it from the man, but i'm reviewing give it back because i think it's the easiest accessable record of theres for new listeners. Give it back doesn't have much character to it like the other albums do, instead it's got a little bit of everything. Giving the listener the whole "brian jonestown experience"

The album kicks off with super sonic, with it's infinite number of sounds, i feel like i just get buried in the twinging sounds of the sitars. After super sonic, you get "this is why you love me" a sweet song by anton. Then after that's satellite, and awesome song. Then there's malela, an eerie campfire story almost, and a great song. Then we gt something totally different from malela as salaam kicks in, a very indian like song, with sitars and who-knows-what-other-instruments. This is a great soothing instrumental. Then comes "whoever you are", a much more built song, and almost more pop sounding with a much more recognizable sound. This is a great, mystifying song. Then there's sue, which is 8 and a half minutes long, but its still a good song, not the best though. Just a "massive concussion of rock and roll" i'd say...heh.

Then we have "you better love me before i am gone" which is probably the sweetest song on the record, featuring beautiful female vocals (miranda richards?). Then we have the oh so famous "not if you were the last dandy on earth". Awesome rock and roll song, followed by number one hit jam, another great bjm signature song. Then there's servo, my favorite track on this record. Your ears just get lost in it's awesome sound. THen to end it off, you have "the devil may care (mom and dad don't). A BEAUTIFUL and saddening song (this is in dig, when anton's recording by himself. best scene in the movie, my friends.). Then there's "their satanic majesties request" which uh... i dunno, go buy the album and see for yourself.

5 out of 5 stars my favorite BJM.......2005-06-16

This one has 'Whoever You Are', 'The Devil May Care (Mom and Dad Don't)', '#1 Hit Jam' and 'Last Dandy On Earth', which are all featured prominently in the movie Dig!

I especially love 'Whoever You Are' for it's Beatle-tinged ("let me take you down"), psychedelic gvoove. It never ceases to amaze me.

If you're like me and was "turned on" to The BJM by Dig!, you will have to have this. Just buy them all like I did. I appreciate the motive(s) to put them up on the web for free but I just had to have the actual CD's. Take that RIAA.

5 out of 5 stars I Pray to Buddha, to Allah, and BJM.......2005-05-17

Took me a few turns to fully appreciate. If you are into BJM, this is a must. Anton sez "Dignity > Fame"

Respect.

Thematically, director Robert Altman's career sometimes seems an endless series of left turns into the unexpected; the one constant has been a rich and rewarding attention to the intricacies of character development and interaction. Composer Patrick Doyle underscores Gosford Park's Merchant-Ivory/Agatha Christie/Altman-wit fusion and '30s British upper-class setting with a score that's period spot-on, character-rich, and often sadly evocative. Doyle's restraint is masterful, often leaning on piano, accordion, and small string arrangements that emphasize the characters' intimacies and the film's drawing room settings. Key to the story are a handful of prewar songs by Ivor Novello (who's also a character in the film), ranging from the sprightly humor of "And Her Mother Came Too" and "What a Duke Should Be" to the romantic schmaltz of "I Can Give You the Starlight" and "Why Isn't It You?" The latter is performed here at the piano (and, remarkably, live before the cameras) by Jeremy Northam. Leavened by a small jazz ensemble and a few darkly ominous cues, Doyle's score is an understated gem. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Gosford Park Sound Track.......2007-03-30

The original music is creative and very listenable. It is typical of popular music of the 1930s. This CD is highly recommended to those people who enjoy music from the 1920s and 1930s.

5 out of 5 stars Better than the movie.......2004-12-08

Many people, I believe, buy a soundtrack because they are mesmerized by the movie and want to extend the experience by listening to something that reminds them of it. But "Gosford Park" is hardly that kind of movie. It is brilliant and atmospheric as it analyzes the British class system, but that's hardly the kind of thing that wins the heart. The soundtrack of this movie was my favorite CD from last year, and the reasons I liked it had nothing to do with the movie.

Why is this music so compelling and winning?

First, it is fun to discover the marvellous talent of Ivor Norvello. His music is half of the charm of the soundtrack. Some songs are funny ("Her mother came too"), some beautiful ("I can give you the starlight") and some poignant ("The land of might have been"). I had not encountered Norvello before this film. Jeremy Northam's perfect delivery of Norvello's songs would not leave me after I'd seen the film. Days later, I found the songs had taken up residence in the back of my head, insisting that I go back to the soundtrack to make them a permanent part of my musical life.

Second, there is the charm of the orchestral music composed by Patrick Doyle. Sometimes people wonder "why aren't they writing beautiful classical music any more?" Well, they are. It goes into soundtracks, however, rather than being commissioned by orchestras. The test for the quality of Doyle's compositions is that you don't need to refer to the film to appreciate this music. It simply charms and intrigues us with its own merits.

My third reason for loving this CD is too personal to mention here.

I give this CD my highest personal recommendation.

4 out of 5 stars I don't mind the repeating themes, but the CD is too short!.......2004-06-08

Unlike many reviewers here, I didn't buy the CD to hear the Ivor Novello songs or Jeremy Northam's voice. I actually liked the instrumental tracks, and never actually thought I'd like to listen to something played on an accordion.

However, Mr. Doyle's music portrays the lethargy of the snobby Upstairs very well to the contrast of the relative energy of Novello's songs, which the Downstairs servants enjoy, but the Upstairs people can't stand.

My dislikes about the CD include the female singer who can't really sing and the length of the CD. Some of these cues are only about a minute long. WHY pay so much money for such a short CD??? Why not add more music??

Overall though, if you liked either Doyle's music or Novello's songs (hopefully the listener will like both), it's a CD worth getting.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent Mix.......2003-04-23

I fell in love with this soundtrack when I watched Gosford Park in the cinemas.

Sometimes period music, sometimes mystery music, sometime personal music. Jeremy Northam's songs are simply delicious and I love hearing them.

I liken the style (not type) of mix to You've Got Mail.

Heaps of fun and lovely to listen to.

5 out of 5 stars One the best soundtracks out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2003-03-06

When I saw the movie at the theater I kept thinking I've got to have the soundtrack to this movie because it is so beautiful. I also really enjoyed the sung songs 6.And Her Mother Came Too, 10.I Can Give You The Starlight, 11.What A Duke Should Be, 16. Only For A While, 20. The Way It's Meant To Be, 24. The Land That Might-Have-Been!! I think that Patrick Doyle did a wonderful job of scoring this movie the just fits right in with it all, I only wish there was more to listen to!! I highly recommend this album to everyone who liked the movie and people who love great soundtracks, you will not be sorry if you buy this!!!!
