Best of Shearing AND Kings Singers.......2002-05-26

This is a fantastic recording. There are interesting arrangements from some of the best popular music arrangers, including Richard Rodney Bennett, Paul Hart and Daryl Runswick, not to mention Shearing's great new 5/4 version of his best-loved song Lullaby of Birdland, which begins with a jazz version of Brahms' Lullaby.

The Kings Singers are in fine form, with their flawless intonation and meticulous attention to creating a great sound.

Each track features just the sextet, Shearing and a double bass (played by Neil Swainson), except for One For My Baby, which adds John Harle on saxophone. That track is one of the three terrific Daryl Runswick arrangements included on the album.

Other stand-outs are:

The-Half-of-It-Dearie Blues, which sounds very similar to their much earlier version of it, i.e. sensitive and sensuous.
Gershwin's The Real American Folk Song (is a rag)
Daryl Runswick's interpretations of I Got Rhythm and Anyplace I Hang My Hat
Over the Rainbow

It is worth getting Amazon to hunt for this album for you: it is one of the very best of many fine albums the performers have made. Getting them together for this disc was a first-class idea.

This isn't really the Bob Marley and the Wailers.......2005-02-22

If you think that you are getting some rare Bob Marley and the Wailers material, you are sadly mistaken. This cd is actually all remixes from a few years ago, and all that is present is bob's vioce. No Wailers had any part in this and although it is fun to liten to once and awhile, it is not actually a Bob Marley and the Wailers recording, it just features his voice.

Sun is shining.......2000-05-04

Out of this world, but that's what one would expect from the legendary bob. I first heard this CD at a friend's party in Pretoria (S.A.) and I danced to it the whole night. Now I can't take it out of my cd player.

awesome.......2000-02-08

I heard this on Buffalo's dance radio station- NRG Radio...100.3FM, and god was it good! I searched till I found out what it was......now I can't stop playing it! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Customer Reviews:

Cerquetti's Abigaille.......2003-09-06

First off, it should be known to the potential buyer that these are HIGHLIGHTS only. The mono sound is acceptable. Orchestra and chorus are average at best. The focus clearly is on Anita Cerquetti and her rendition of Abigaille. Even though in the booklet listing of tracks her name is omitted on the last cue point. I never heard this singer live. My first encounter with her voice was the studio GIOCONDA with del Monaco and Simionato and I liked it very much. As Abigaille I find her less convincing. The voice is beautiful and even. But she cannot convey Abigaille's high flying ambitions. She sounds noble most of the time. Never aggressive or infuriated or spiteful or menacing. Her repentance/dying scene is superficial. Which makes me wonder how often Miss Cerquetti may have had the chance to sing this role during her brief career and develop a feeling for it. At times she unexpectedly breaks a phrase to catch her breath, which I find somewhat irritating. And some climax seem "rushed". It's also a bit disappointing to me that the "Salgo gia" cabaletta gets no repeat. Guess such were the customs in those years, even for concert performances. I am pleased with Messrs. Dondi (in the title role) and Trama. Aside from their vocal qualities I find them very much in character. Also the singers of Fenena and Ismaele made me prick up my ears. Taken all in all, it's worthwhile to have this document. It will nicely supplement your studio NABUCCO. It's been a guilty pleasure of mine to compare Anita Cerquetti to Elena Suliotis and Dino Dondi to Tito Gobbi. And I wish that one day the Metropolitan Opera's NABUCCO with Leonie Rysanek under the baton of Thomas Schippers will appear on CD.

Good soloists, mediocre chorus, mono recording.......2002-10-24

The soloists are very good, but the chorus (key in this opera) is not on the same level. "Va Pensiero", the famous chorus piece, is very weakly done. The mono recording is only just adequate, OK for the soloists but flat and dull for stage presence and orchestration.

Blistering Vocalism.......2001-02-23

I first heard this rare pearl over 20 years ago on some faded third-generation cassette. Despite the dim sonics, I was thrilled to hear a diva who could actually negotiate the scorching roulades of Abigaille's music while still sounding like a singer and not some wounded forest creature howling in pain. Apart from Callas' live performance, we've had precious little to celebrate in recorded Abigailles. Sure, Scotto lit a few fires with her EMI pressing, but who wouldn't with a microphone clenched betweeen her teeth and the volume control nailed in place at the top of the control panel? For Heaven's sake, most of the current generation of half-wit dimpled divettes and "sound-enhanced" melody muffins could come off like an Abigaille with the right studio wizards calling the shots.

Cerquetti was the REAL thing. Like Margharita Roberti (listen to her in Christoff's ATTILA recording), Caterina Mancini and Fedora Barbieri, she came from a school of barnstormers who could shake the foundations of San Carlo or La Scala with truly schooled, crafted voices that emanated from the viscera and not the top of the larynx. Cerquetti was one of the Queens of Can Belto, and this new release in great sound is one of the treasures among re-releases of the past decade. I cast aside all conservatory terminology and call this type of performance a ripsnorter for the ages. With Callas, Cerquetti, and Dimitrova on disc, and the rare likes of Linda Roark-Strummer performing the role onstage, the other studio bunnies can turn their attention to gentler repertoire and give the rest of us a break.

Glorious Cerquetti in very good Nabucco.......2000-07-19

With the exception of the famous Hebrew's choir 'Va pensiero', the number of recordings of 'Nabucco' is notably low. One possible reason is the extraordinary vocal demand of the female leading role, King Nabucco's daughter Abigaille. Very few sopranos have succeeded with this difficult role: Maria Callas, Elena Suliotis, Renata Scotto, Ghena Dimitrova (arguably the best). Now we have a live recording of the great Italian soprano Anita Cerquetti, and she is probably so good as Dimitrova. Cerquetti was one of the greatest sopranos of the century, although she had an astonishingly short carreer (she retired at the age of 30!). Most of her (scarce) recordings are live performances, so having any single piece of recording of her extraordinary voice is a real must. This Nabucco was one of the last documents of her operatic carreer, and here she sounds so splendid that it remains a mystery why she decided to give up singing so soon afterwards. The rest of the cast is very good, especially the bass Ugo Trama as the High Priest Zaccaria. Dino Dondi is a good Nabucco, but his interpretation of the title role is not a reference. The orchestra sounds well, and the choir efficiently provides the necessary support. The quality of sound is good for the time (1960). To Summarize: This incredibly low priced recording has an adequate combination of the elements needed for a good Nabucco: A very good choir, an excellent bass (Trama), a good baritone (Dondi) and a star of stars as princess Abigail: the great soprano Anita Cerquetti. Enjoy it!

Verdi at the most exciting way!.......2000-01-05

You have to buy this recording! Cerquetti is our and Verdi's dreams Abigaille! If you really are an opera fan or have any concern about Verdi you need this recording. Go for it!

who is funkstar de luxe and where do i find more of him!.......1999-12-19

I have never heard of this Funkstar De Luxe before, but I can't wait to hear some more! This is one of the biggest club tracks of the moment. And with good reason. Once you hear it, you'll know why. A fantastic pumping bassline with the vocal stylings of the legendary Bob Marley! What more can you ask for. The version of the disc that I have is the Canadian single, so I don't know if this one has the same remixes (I believe that it does because my remixes are liscensed from a German Label). The versions on my cd are:

1) Radio De Luxe Edit - 3:59 2) Rainbow Mix - 6:03 3) Funkstar Club Mix - 8:14

All of these sound the same, but it is well worth it! Now you have to watch out when purchasing this single! There are another batch of remixes out there that are HORRIBLE! Those remixes are done by The Ibiza Allstars and the Messy Boys and are pure garbage. The names of those mixes are The Island Mix Radio Edit, The Island Mix Extended Version (those two mixed by The Ibiza Allstars) and The Messy Boys Remix (remixed by The Messy Boys). Steer clear of these ones and only purchase the single with the name Funkstar De Luxe on it! The Funkstar mixes sound better because he has tweaked the vocals a little bit, which works wonders! The other mixes keep Bob's original vocals intact, which do not work with the beats that they put behind it. So do yourself a favour, pick up the Funkstar De Luxe mixes of "Sun Is Shining" - it's a great little party number that everyone should enjoy.

Customer Reviews:

Excellent budget compilation of Marley's early recordings.......2004-08-09

There's a school of thought that says Bob Marley and the Wailers made their best recordings before signing with Island Records, which really says something because most people in the world were introduced to them through those first, classic Lp's on Island Records.

These early recordings have been issued by various companies over the years, but this set has been issued by Trojan Records, which has always owned these recordings. The sound quality of these tracks are really raw and lo-fi, recorded under very cheap conditions, so don't expect the same sound quality you'd find on their Island albums (recorded in more professional settings).

It's interesting to hear such early classics like "Trenchtown Rock," "Small Axe," "Duppy Conqueror," "Kaya," and "Don't Rock The Boat," especially when they've been re-recorded for later albums, and because these later re-recordings were found on albums with better distribution, the early recordings have probably become more 'obscure' in comparison. If you want to explore these early recordings, which are essential to any Bob Marley devotee, this two-disc set is a good place to go. Budget price, packed with just about every track worth owning from this period, and some nice liner notes by Laurence Cane-Honeysett, who's advised Trojan Records on many of their great re-issues.
