A Scorpion is Born.......2007-05-13

You can hear the early talent of the Scorpions shining through on "Rainbow." It is not as commercially known as their 1980's releases, but it is nonetheless packed full of great music driven by intricately woven guitar work around great drumming and vocals. I began listening to the music on Fly to the Rainbow as far back as 1983...and continue to play it today. It is definitely a keeper!

Awesome........2007-02-23

This is an awesome album. The songs are very trippy in some spots and very definitely in the 70's psychedelic rock. Great guitar work.
The only negative is that the album is short.

Scorps rule.......2007-02-08

This is the album that got me hooked. Too short but super example of a group on the way up.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR METAL MEATHEADZ.......2006-10-02

Most METAL people will probably say the SCORPIONS suck or that they are GAY and what have you. They only know the 80's material and unfortunately, the SCORPIONS probably do not play this kind of material anymore.

ULI JON ROTH and his solo band is the only unit keeping this monumental music alive. Mere words will do this recording an injustice. The only thing I can say is that if you are a fan of RETRO 70's heavy rock, then you must seek this and LONESOME CROW by the SCORPIONS, for you would be truly missing out.

Mindblowing.......2006-03-06

An absolute classic from Scorpions. Meine, Roth, Buchholz are all amazing on this album.
I grewup listening this and other Scorpions albums of that era, 20 years later it sounds just as fresh. Also check check out Tokyo Tapes... what I woundn't do for the live footage of this!

Customer Reviews:

Three great albums, one great price.......2007-05-24

This set contains all the material from Fly to the Rainbow, In Trance, and Virgin Killer! I had been waiting for remastered versions of these albums to be released in the US, as they did with Lonesome Crow, Taken By Force, and Tokyo Tapes. Since that hasn't happened, this is your best alternative.

The standard warning on 70's era Scorpions music applies here. This isn't the Scorpion's everyone knows and loves from the 1980's. Their sound was very different during the 1970's due to Ulrich Roth's influence. His songs are more jazzy/psychedelic and his singing is very different than Klaus Meine's, or anyone else you've ever heard. Someone exploring 1970's era Scorpions for the first time may want to start with Taken By Force or the excellent live album Tokyo Tapes as the price is much lower and both albums are a good representation of the band's sound during this time. For everyone else familiar with the Scorpions of the 1970's, buy this set! You won't be disappointed. Where else can you get three great import albums for under $40?

THE 2, I MEAN THE 3 BEST SCORPIONS ALBUMS EVER.......2007-05-16

these are truly the best scorpions albums ever... In Trance and Virgin Killer. Very well digitally mastered and complete with liner notes and photos but the best is... The 7 bonus tracks are actually all 7 tracks from the second album Fly to the Rainbow. Digitally mastered. So you actually get 3 albums at a very good price. Since these were the only 3 albums left unmastered now you can have all the catalogue remastered and sounding good...

Album Description

Featuring original music composed by Alberto Iglesias. Adapted from the best-seller John le Carre's romantic thriller, two-time Academy Award nominee Ralph Fiennes and Rachel Weisz head the cast of "The Constant Gardener." In a remote area of northern Kenya, the dedicated activist Tessa Quayle (Weisz) is found brutally murdered. Her travelling companion, a local doctor, appears to have fled the scene and the evidence points to a crime of passion. Sandy Woodrow (Danny Huston), Sir Bernard Pellegrin (Bill Nighy), and other member of the British High Commission assume that Tessa's widower, their mild-mannered colleague Justin Quayle (Fiennes) will leave the matter to their discretion. They could not be more wrong... Featuring music performed by acclaimed Kenyan percussionist and Real World recording artist Ayub Ogada, Alberto Iglesias' ("La Mala Educacion," "The Dancer Upstairs," "Todo Sobre Mi Madre") lush score evokes the film's compelling African and European landscapes.

Customer Reviews:

Beautiful Score.......2007-04-24

For someone like me who purchases soundtracks for the score to use for dance & skating programs, this soundtrack definitely made it into my collection. My only minus to the soundtrack is that there isn't much variety among the many tracks. But I am still able to work around it.

Only track 13.......2007-03-31

In my opinion, only track 13 is worthy of buy this CD. Track 13 is beautiful, other than that extremely depressing music...... Once again track 13 is the most beautiful adn touching music that I have ever heard!

Great Service.......2007-02-12

My CD was delivered in a very timely manner and the product was in great shape upon arrival.

A nice reminder of a very moving movie.......2007-01-12

Favorite songs are the ones by Ayub Ogada. I think it's wonderful that we found his music through this film.

it captures the spirit of the movie.......2006-11-10

I like this soundtrack because it reminds me of the movie, which I loved. I am not sure I would appreciate it much if I hadn't seen the movie and didn't have pictures in my mind for each theme. It is redolent of Africa though and that in itself is satisfying.

German Marches on a budget.......2006-11-05

A good budget recording of twenty German military marches from Legacy International. As far as I know several of the marches on this recording are not easily available elsewhere. I was glad to find a CD of this recording which I had previously had on a LP vinyl record. Sadly the transfer to CD has not enhanced the sound quality. It sounds as it did on the vinyl record. There is a volume 2 of German Military Marches from Legacy International as well as an excellent recording of French military marches.

Old LP Re-Issue on CD.......2004-08-21

This is a collection of old LP recordings that were originally released on the Oylimpic Label some years ago. It has floated around since and has now come out on CD. The CD lists the German Air Force Band, but this group only plays in half of the selections listed. The other half is from another old Olympic Label recording with the Hoch Und Deutschmiester band of Austria.

Its too bad the producers were not a bit more honest about who is performing on this CD. The recording quality here has not been improved much from the original LP recordings.
The same poor linear notes are used with no info. about the
band(s) or music. Just some general ramblings about how military music may have developed in Germany. Its pretty general stuff.

While I have complained about the poor production qaulity the style of playing is still quite good. The recording sounds like it was made back in the 1960s or 70s when German bands sounded different than today. The best selection is the Zapfenstrich medley of marches and hymns used by the old Prussian army as an evening Tattoo piece and a salute to the colors. The music is not listed, but it includes Beethoven's "Zafenstreich March", as well as the old "Kurfursten march", which is included seperately later on the CD as well. This special medlely includes drum and fife florishes unique for the occasion in the old German army and concludes with a stirring version of "Deutschland Uber Alles". This selection is alone worth getting the CD for.

The other music played by the Hoch Und Deutschmiester Band is very good Austian martial selections, although these recordings have been re-issued and improved in their sound quality on another label. Overall you get a decent potporri of German and Austrian marches played by two different bands on this CD for a low price. The sound quality is poor, but not unbearable. This is basically a low budget production. You get what you pay for with this price. Enjoy

Quality?.......2003-02-25

Good representation of melodies. It would have been more enjoyable if they had used a better recording device to capture the sound. I think that wax cylinders went out of favor back in the 1920's. (Very limited dynamic and acustic range) Presentation is slightly better than the "average" high school drum and bugle corps.

Not WW2 military marches.......2002-11-06

I was searching for songs like Panzerlied and bought this CD.
I guess I expected too much from this CD.

Great!.......2002-03-07

Beware of the other CD with this title. THIS is
the good CD, the other is not. This has many great
marches on it including some they used a bit in Nazi
Germany (the Nazis wrote few songs, they used stock).
Overall, FANTASTIC. You will not be disapointed, I
just wish that a march or two was longer.

ABSOLUTELY THE GREATEST SOPRANO OF THE 20TH CENTURY.......2003-12-02

I had the great good fortune to hear Ms Berberian live in the early seventies perform most of the music included on this disk.
The event was one of the high points of my childhood.

As at home singing avant-garde as she was singing pop and classical music, many composers wrote for Ms. Berberian simply because there were no other singers accomplished enough to bring their musical visions alive.

This disk offers up a wonderful cross-section of all of the
kinds of music in Cathy's vast repertoire. I recommend it most highly

Greatest Soprano of the 20th Century(?).......2002-06-22

It's incredible to me that the name Cathy Berberian is so unknown today. Listen to the performance of Debussy's Chansons de Bilitis; it's the greatest recorded vocal performance I've ever heard. Throughout the disk, she lives up to the title. Rather than sing in big soprano mode, she is a vocal chameleon who adapts to the subject matter, from Monteverdi to Lennon & McCartney to John Cage. You will not be disappointed.

"Show Me The Way" to the CD remaster with bonus tracks!.......2007-07-14

As the author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent" and a former radio disc-jockey, I am often asked to write and or discuss various music supplies and recordings from the 60's and 70's.

After one of the finest progressive rock masterpieces "Remember The Future" the guys from Nektar had to decide the direction of their next project. Do you continue with the theme record and the longer tracks or attempt something different? Nektar went with the alternate route and along with "Sounds Like This" comes their most underrated achievement.

1974's "Down To Earth" with Hawkwind friend Robert Calvert acting as ringmaster for the progressive circus is a tremendous listen. "Astral Man" is in its proper place as the album opens. Offering the perfect combination of catchy instrumentation with a great vocal, the three-minute tune would be superlative on stage as well. "That's Life" is a work of art. The beauty of the song comes alive each listen. "Fidgety Queen" is in your face Nektar rock and roll with no apologies needed. "Oh Willy" can be thought of as a shorter version of "A Day In The Life Of A Preacher" from "Sounds Like This." In short form it still takes hold of your body. The album builds momentum and by the time the eighth track rolls around "Show Me To Way" you are elevated to an even higher level of musical brilliance. Make sure to please purchase the remaster with 6 alternate versions and some Robert Calvert ringmaster outtakes!

If you are looking for the first Nektar CD to purchase any order of "Remember The Future", "Recycled", or "A Tab In The Ocean" will surpass your expectations. Once you have absorbed the wizardry, next should be "Journey To The Center Of The Eye", "Sounds Like This", and "Down To Earth." Those would cover the original Roye Albrighton catalog. "Magic Is A Child" with Dave Nelson stepping in takes a different approach but still a must own. You then will have several reunion choices and Roye solo projects to engulf.




Enjoy the music and be well,

and she said "Can you turn that junk DOWN,please?!".......2006-07-28

we were on the way to get 'white pizza'(no tomato sauce) in a ritzy cul-de-sac and on the way i thought, Well, since i don't have a car myself, and she does, i'll just plop my NEKTAR tape into her player and won't she be enticed,'eh?
so i did and about two minutes into the Gently Slip Away
she noticed the album
really noticed it and said
"What kind of Crapola are you playing on my brand new tape player, anyhow? and can you turn it down, please? like NOW?"
that didn't bode well at all
the album that opened my head
(we didn't see each other much after that blunt trauma, as you can well imagine....)

AS GOOD AS I REMEMBER.......2005-04-18

It has been many years since I even thought about Nektar. My first encounter with the group was with this album, "Down To Earth". I saw them some thirty years ago in a half sold out movie theater in Garden City. They were phenomenal.

The album is just as good, if not better than I remembered it to be all those years ago. It's a concept album, it's a prog rock album, it's melodic. it's great. You can hear their influences and yet the music is uniquely their own.

Fabulous, and one of my Favorite Nektar albums.......2005-03-05

Totally original and self contained musical environment. For those who want to understand what "progressive" means, listen to this and other great Nektar albums. THese guys pratically invented the concept. This particular album is in my view at least, one of their 2 best. Remember the Future of course broke all the molds for the time, but this one, was a true concept album. Most of their others were either good or great, but this one is fabulous.

They were experimental, radical and conservative at the same time. Listen to this collection, and hear zillions of styles. And then look at the year of its creation, and think about what else was being recorded back then. Lots of clone radio music, and some adventurous ideas, but not much this out there. Genesis even started to tighten their range in this period.

This is awesome music, for any student of the era.

A nice follow-up to REMEMBER THE FUTURE.......2005-02-05

Actually....my guess is, these tracks came from the same writing session as "Remember"....the nice thing about Nektar...after they clicked on a sound and style that proved successful...instead of running them into the ground with a slew of clone followup albums (ie. as with bands like JOURNEY, BAD COMPANY, JETHRO TULL) they moved on to new unchartered territories....Isn't that what "progressive rock" is supposed to be all about???? (key word here is PROGRESS) If you dont move on and explore....it isn't progressive...'nuff said on that.

Once again reference is made that these guys are a Beatles influenced band....I would have to say....the Beatles influence here, as with all their albums...is very minimal...THEY SOUND LIKE NEKTAR...Now...for good or bad reasons....that kind of originality and honesty to ones own style should not go unnoticed....sadly in a day when clone bands seem to all jump on media bandwagons..to sell records...and get rich..some bands place a higher regard on staying true to their art and convictions....how can you go wrong with a band like that????

I'm really glad to know these guys survived and are still around.

Mantovani's Eighth Million Seller Arrives on CD!.......2003-08-20

Italia Mia was the great maestro Mantovani's eighth, million selling recording in 1961. It stayed in the US charts for 50 weeks! This is not surprising because the Italian melodies enhanced by Mantovani's gifted arrangements are still attracting listeners today who may hear some of the renditions by the current day orchestra bearing the Mantovani name. These original recordings are even more spectacular to hear, and we are indebted to the producers at Vocalion for starting the process of re-releasing Mantovani's music on CD. Some of the CD's selections have not heard for decades, such as the hauntingly beautiful "Come Back to Sorrento," the stunning "Mattinata," the ever popular Dean Martin classic, "Return to Me": a heart tugging "Vissi D'Arte," and a very lively and clever arrangement of the "Bersagieri March," among many other Italian classics. As a special bonus, Vocalion added a scarce recording from 1969 Germany, never before issued in any format in the US, Japan or UK. Perhaps for the very first time, avid fans will hear Mantovani's distinctive strings playing many beautiful German melodies. To sum up, this two CD set is a glorious treat for those who can never get enough of the Mantovani sound, or who have difficulty finding the original master recordings on CD.
The meliorating music of Mantovani makes its marvelous return.

Album Description

Music was originally a communal act. It was utilitarian and, in a way, magic - it made work easy. Music was also a reflection of the nascent social order, with one lead voice and the rest responding. The first solo music was therefore a powerful act of liberation, of spirit. This recording contains a great diversity of solos; more than a millennium separates the oldest from the most recent; there are solos for flutes, reeds, brass, lutes, zithers, fiddles, piano, percussion, and voice; the music comes from the Near East, the Far East, Australia, Europe, and the Americas. But despite the contrast of instruments and styles, what gradually becomes apparent is the similarity beneath the surface of these works. Soul Alone: The Art of the Solo suggests that there is some fundamental distinction about the way musicians express themselves in a solo setting - something that defines the Art of the Solo.

This is some of the most personally felt music the world's greatest traditions have to offer. If the act of making music is a personal one, so too is listening. Music was always meant to be listened to - by other people, or by something else, whether you call it God or nature or by another name. And that is the reason for Soul Alone: The Art of the Solo. Because after all, music can be performed alone, and heard alone, but it is still a communal art, meant to be shared. Perhaps it only truly becomes music when it is shared.
