Customer Reviews:

Great Classic Themes.......2006-09-11

This is an awesome collection of unsettling melodies from the masters, not just some horror movie themes (though it does have some Psyco). You will end up playing a round of "Where have I heard that score before?" because these melodies are very iconic.
The only complaint is that the track listing is somewhat occult. One has to use amazon.com's track listings and fill in the numbers.
Still, this is a great buy!!

Simply Wonderful!.......2006-05-18

I would like to begin my review of this wonderful CD by stating that I am not a "kid." (unless you consider a 14-year-old to still be a child) I am, however, too lazy too start a new Amazon.com account before typing about this great CD.

Now then... In my eyes, this CD recieved 5 stars because of (what else!) the music. The quality of the music to be more specific. The sound of it was great and the selection of the pieces was pure genius. My personal favorite would have to be a three-way tie between Bach's Toccata and Fugue, Dukas' Sorceror's Apprentice, and Stravinsky's The Right of Spring.

I will leave you tonight with one final thought... Is it just me, or are most of the pieces from "Fantasia"? At least 7 (!) of the pieces are from that age-old classic. I think it's funny that they are on a collection such as "The Most Frightening Music in the Universe". And could the cover art be any worse?!

All in all it is a great CD to add to any collection. (and cheap!) Thanks!

Mock Blues at it's Best........2007-05-07

This is one of Hammond's earliest albums. Maybe his earliest. Go check.

This is Mock Blues at it's finest and that's not intended to be a put down. That is to say, he really puts it on. The theatrical voice, that is. Still, it's worth adding to a blues collection.

wadada at his best albsolutelly dub slammin.......2005-05-30

alright yall here it is the best suns of arqa album yet and one of the best eastern dub albums ever. wadada tears it up with this dub slamma(bass, slide guitar+voice) with help from geshela sherap (chants), kadir durvesh (shenai), n. magriel (sarangi), and durga dugle( tabla+drums) and all other instrument by the gayan uttejak orchestra. And my man youth ( from the dub trees album with simon pinford from hallucinogen, shpongle & younger brother) remixin 3+4+7+8, the brains behind the remixez of suns album juggernaut dub. I love albums like this with songs that say dub in them and the whole album is dub slammin and those arent and different. This is really smooth dub beautifly orchestrated sarangi which is an eastern violin not much different, tabla with tamboura and various eastern horns and guitars mixed with excellent dub bass keyboard electronics and electric drums. Their isnt verry much singin except 1 song and the other is slight chants. for any fans of dub at all this is the one to check out to real into different breeds of dubnicity. This truelly is universe city
any fand of bill laswell, tranglobal underground, temple of sound, asian dub foundation, gayan uttejak, azzddine, adrian sherwood, mad professor and classic dub headz
