4 out of 5 stars Another Good One From Buffett.......2006-11-10

I find this one to be a bit of a mixed bag. There are some really great songs on this album, but there is also some filler as well. As usual it is a mix of Buffett originals and covers. Cover highlights include the good time concert song "Stars On The Water" from Rodney Crowell, Steve Goodman's "California Promises", and a lively Caribbean style take of Van Morrison's "Brown Eyed Girl". Of the Buffett originals the title track "One Particular Harbor" remains a concert favorite to this day and is a great song. "We Are The People Our Parents Warned Us About" has become the Parrothead theme song. "Twelve Volt Man" is another great Buffett lyric and "Distantly In Love" is a breezy little ditty that closes the album. The rest of the disc is ok, but nothing really stands out. For the most part this is another strong Buffett album.

5 out of 5 stars One of his best........2006-04-16

Great album, great spirit and refreshing new sound for Jimmy. Only drawback on this album is the absence of Greg "Fingers" Taylor on the harmonica. That would have brought the album to perfection. It's like a a great meal but missing a certian spice. Outside of that, this is still a strong candidate for one of Jimmy Buffetts best albums. Put this on at any backyard bar-b-que or summertime pool party and its is sure to liven up any crowd.

5 out of 5 stars I'd Dock in this Harbour.......2005-09-18

A great Jimmy Buffett album. Over half the tracks on this album are among my all time favorite Buffett songs, this album really delievers. This is definately a CD you can listen to over and over again and will please more then just Parrot Heads.

5 out of 5 stars Very good album but..........2005-03-14

The CD issue is awful. The sound quality is the product of what happens when you take vinyl masters and transfer them directly to a CD. Not meant to happen, as why the tape hiss is excessive. Why? Because it's a remnant of MCA's "Compact Disc/Compact Price" series, along with all the other Buffett 1973-85 albums.

Also keep in mind that you don't get any artwork or liner notes in this release beyond the front cover you see in the stock image above (which is blemished by that horrible logo in the bottom right corner). It's quite a shame as Jimmy and photographer Jim Shea acquired permission to shoot on the set of the Mel Gibson film "Mutiny of the Bounty" for the album's package, and those photos went well with the recording and were good eye candy. Removing the band credits and dedications was just pain disrespectful to Jimmy, to say the least.

I would patiently wait on purchasing this album till a remaster happens, which is long over due and hopefully in the near future. When that happens, I will be happy to provide a review that deals 100% with the music and explains why I give it 5 stars.

5 out of 5 stars BUFFETT IS THE MAN.......2004-12-04

This is one of Buffett's best albums though highly underated. Filled with inticing stories about life. In this ablum the most popular song is "We Are The Ones Our Parents Warned Us About" but not the best. I would have to say that the best song on the album is "One Particular Harbour". This albums rhythms and lyrical aspects are phenomenal. Get this album if you can, it's a great addition to an already growing collection.

5 out of 5 stars A Rare Treasure!.......2005-09-04

I've been a Prog Rock fan for many years (Yes, Genesis, Nektar, Camel, Moody Blues, Kansas, etc.) and I am usually critical. I found this CD by accident when it first came out. At first listen it was nothing that I had expected but it was interesting. After about 4 listens I was really into about half of the tracks. After a week I wouldn't drop a single track. This CD is a real tour de force and all you have to do is listen to "Watching the Bobbins" and the guitar solo on "The Hour Candle" (a tribute to the passing of Andrew Latimer's father) to get an appreciation of how really great, yet virtually unappreciated, Camel really is. Their original record label was Deram which also had the Moody Blues. It seems that Camel may hae taken the "back seat" in its early promotion and support and got lost as an "also ran". If you really don't like this CD after 5 listens you probably have no soul.

5 out of 5 stars What could possibly be finer.......2005-04-08

I absolutely love Camel. This CD is so rich and full of exquisite riffs by Andrew Lattimer that it astounds me everytime I spin it.

4 out of 5 stars device player important.......2002-09-01

when HOT came out I had the usual 1-bit d/a converter CD player and felt the album was weak--some months ago I upgraded to a 16-bit machine and the album in places was unrecognizable-really came to life--needless to say, hi-resolution speakers are a necessity

3 out of 5 stars Not a starting point.........2000-06-19

I'm not the biggest Camel buff out there, but I've heard alot of good stuff come from these guys (Moonmadness, Raindances...) ..and what makes them good is the way all the instruments usually contribute to the song structure. Whether it be the keyboards or the drums locking you into a 5/4 time signature, or guitar solos that suck...you into the song, these keys know how to do it.

But Harbour takes a different approach--not a horrible approach--but different. The short instrumental pieces seem to be avenues for the guitarist alone, over synths that generally just float into the next track. And the vocals are more of a presence... not in a totally disagreeable way, but then Camel, like most bands, is better when they just shut up and play..

This isn't a bad album, but should definitely not be your first experience with Camel.

    5 out of 5 stars The reason to love music...and Southside.......2006-11-14

    Call it arrogance or call it hubris; call it what you will. I'm going to start to proclaiming my total and utter bias for Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes. I grew up in Jersey and spent the 60s in and around Asbury Park. I worked a snack stand in Convention Hall which gained me access to shows by the Stones; The Who (opening for Herman's Hermits!); the DC5; Paul Revere and the Raiders and a slew of others.

    I also hung around Mrs. Jay's Beer Garden which was hard by Mrs. Jay's Resaurant; the former was as rowdy and the latter was not. But, it was at Mrs. Jay's and The Wonder Bar and The Upstairs that one got to see the local talent.

    "Yeah," you say, "blah, blah, blah; you saw The Boss and Southside and all the others. BFD! What does that have to do with "Into the Harbour?"

    Nothing and everything.

    One of the other reviewers mentioned how Jersey was a amalgam of styles from The City (New York for the rest of you folks) and Philly. That meant a collision between hard-edged rock 'n' roll and lush soul-flavored rhythm and blues. That's why The Young Rascals had to be born in Jersey.

    This synthesis had its apotheosis along the Jersey Shore, where was always a warm summer night; you were hanging out with you pals and the atmosphere was electric with sexual tension. Nothing epitomizes this more than the music of Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, a band that for some thirty years has played a challenging melange of self-penned and cover-versions of paeans to love found and love lost. It was real life.

    While Bruce Springsteen went on the arenas and world-wide acclaim, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes worked for a living. They were a bar band. There were numerous personnel changes. Many of the band members had other jobs. But, they entity that is Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes continued.

    "Into the Harbour" is - I hope - simply the latest installment for the band and a fine installment it is. Whether covering Keith Richards and Tom Waits or singing your heart out on an original piece, this album is a must have for any afficinado of the music or the band. There is a maturity in some of the material, a reflectiveness that is touching and endearing. This is particularly the case with the title cut, a allegorical soliloquy about life and love and how over time one comes to learn what really matters. BTW - the cover shot is the bridge over the Shrewsbury River connecting Atlantic Highlands and Sea Bright. Many have come home under this bridge, back to their famillies and what keeps them striving to provide for them.

    Buy it!

    Enjoy it!

    5 out of 5 stars Like A Fine Wine, Johnny and the Jukes Get Better With Age.......2006-09-06

    "Into The Harbor" is a real treat for loyal Jukes fans and for those who are new to their incredible sound. Recognized as "The World's Greatest Bar Band", Johnny and the Jukes are far more than that. Johnny's voice is truly amazing and the Jukes are as good or better than any band this side of E Street. The horns are fabulous, the arrangements are first class and the songs are a cross-section of classic Jukes sounds. You'll enjoy all of the songs but three - "Into The Harbor", "Dancing On The Edge of the World", and "Hang Down Your Head" - are truly outstanding. This is a CD that stands the test of time and will be one more classic for Southside Johnny and The Asbury Jukes.

    5 out of 5 stars Southside Johnny at his soulful best.......2006-08-15

    In 1975, when Bruce Springstreen created "Born to Run," he said he wanted to take the best of Bob Dylan and mix it with the Philadelphia Wall of Sound of Phil Spector. The Jersey Shore's best music has always done just that: combine good lyrics and the outstanding rock and roll of NYC with the absolute soul of Philadelphia. There is simply none better at this combination then Johnny Lyon (if you need proof, just listen to Southside's version of Bruce's "Hearts of Stone"). "Into the Harbour" is a marvelous combination of rock and roll and soul. Starting with the Mick Jagger, Keith Richards "Happy," the album moves to Waits "Hang Down Your Head." But, the best is Southside Johnnny and the Jukes at their soulful best. The 5 minute "Don't call me baby" along with the title cut may simply be the best (and most souful) vocal performances I have ever heard from John Lyon, from whatever band he has had. This album is a treat.

    5 out of 5 stars it turned out to be rather good, after all.......2007-01-24

    i had problems with the post office when i ordered this initially, but Amazon straightened everything out. their customer service team really came through. i am well aware this is not a review of the album (yet), but it does inform potential buyers that the customer service here is outstanding. anyway, as for the cd: there are 3 amazing tracks on this disc, making the overall purchase VERY worthwhile. for Patton fans, the closest comparison is the Kaada/Patton Romances CD in the way that it has some actual lyrics, but mostly sounds. the orchestration on this is stunning on most tracks. on track 10, i cannot believe the drums, it sounds like a programmed beat, not a live orchestra. i obviously don't have a degree in this subject, but i can tell you that it's moving, uplifting, and worldly sounding. really diverse, yet good flow. #7,9, and 10 are my favorites. #7 reminds me of these crazy old filmstrips you'd watch in music class in elementary school. actually it sounds like a cut directly from the movie Masque of the Red Death with Vincent Price. oddly on this same disc, track 9 could be played at a wedding and it'd fit right in. once #9 or 10's in your head, it's stuck- they're good ones. hope this review was helpful.

    3 out of 5 stars a bit sterile.......2005-06-04

    I bought this CD because of the extremely positive reviews I had read on this page, but, after listening to it a few times, I thought I needed to provide some counterpoint. I held many expectations for this album upon reading the reviews, few of which were realized.

    I don't know why one reviewer would have listed all those genres and composers, insinuating that Virginal Co Ordinates is some sort of culmination of 500 years of music. It's not. It's not a bad album, but it's no milestone. If you're expecting "Scottish folk and Villa-Lobos and Icelandic post-rock all on the same album," you'll be disappointed.

    I'll take you through "Doorway to the Sun," and you can decide for yourself:

    -starts off, we're at 3:30 into it, and there's been some pizzicato noodling. a little dissonance. some of pink floyd's "echoes" sound effects in the background, seems like. yeah, this has been going on for a while.

    -alright, it's building, a little. we've got some percussion now. we're 7 minutes into it. it's got a good vibe to it, but it feels like the music that would play during a video montage of me making a toothpick structure.

    -alright, 9:30. the music has really layered itself to a point of cohesiveness, and that's gratifying. it took a very long time to do so, though, and the song could have equally as effectively started right here. it hasn't been "bending genres" for these past nine minutes, after all, it's been building up within the confines of one, one genre, one tempo, one key.

    -now we're at 14:00, and mike patton has been chanting along. the vocals are another instrument, which is always refreshing, especially when patton does it, but is something going to happen? i could fall asleep to this music, but should i be actively listening to it?

    -ever play medal of honor, or whatever that wwII videogame is with the trumpet in the beginning? man, this whole album reminds me of that.

    -hey, the music is deconstructing itself exactly the way it built up, but backwards.

    -now it's over.

    So, as you can see, I did not just have a life-altering experience. It's good music to put on while you're sitting in a cubicle or reading an intense book, but otherwise it gets a bit dry, emotionless, repetitive, and predictable.

    5 out of 5 stars What if . . . .......2005-05-10

    What if the entire history of Western Christian mysticism, William Blake, plainsong, Tantum Ergo, polyphony, Renaissance dance, Baroque, German Romanticism, Gamelan, South Indian classical, Japanese folk song, Icelandic chill-out, Olivier Messiaen, Alva Noto, microtonalism, Samuel Barber, Daniel Lanois without the cheese, Native American, Appalachian, Scottish folk, North African Berber, Nu-pop, ambient drone, Minimalism, Industrial, beat poetry, cosmic consciousness, post-rock, Toronto Indie Apocalypse, Van Dyke Parks, chamber jazz, Richard Strauss, Gustav Mahler, Gustav Holst, The Beach Boys, Sun Ra, Eric Satie, Heitor Villa Lobos, Phillip Glass, and New Music sensibilities were all to be assimilated, processed, deconstructed, and retrieved in one enormous, death-defyingly gorgeous, show-stoppingly virtuosic yet eminently listenable and instantly accessible disc? That's a pitiful attempt to capture in words what is going on in this absolutely astounding album, certainly a landmark, a watershed in the history of recorded music.

    Just the shear scope of the soundscape boggles the mind. A basic six-piece unit (Michael White, violin; Mike Patton, voice, electronics; Tim Young, electric guitar; Tucker Martine, live sound processing; Evan Schiller sound movements; and Evyind Kang, violin and composer) is augmented by a sixteen-piece orchestra featuring woodwinds, brass, strings, acoustic and electric guitar, keyboards, accordion, percussion, and drums. Kang has written some absolutely mesmeric compositions featuring all of the styles noted in the first paragraph, which are then arranged and played in a most compelling and beguiling manner. Certainly the inclusion of such noted sound manipulators as Patton, Schiller, and Martine contribute greatly to the sweep and grandeur of the musical palette. But perhaps the most salient fact about this disc is that it is a live recording, albeit, thankfully, with none of the annoying audience interruptions that all too frequently accompany such undertakings.

    The centerpiece is the 19:23 "Doorway to the Sun," which must be heard to be believed (or vice versa). Here composer Kang pulls out all the stops, creating a map of the musical universe that encompasses the farthest reaches of Ultima Thule, maelstroms, blasted heaths, ocean bottoms, planetary cycles, black holes, desert sunsets, double helixes, equinoxal precessions, 80-foot Cortez Reef, Uluru, Rapa Nui, Chichen Itza, and all points in between. The chantlike vocals coming in at about 10:20, courtesy of the inimitable Mike Patton, largely unintelligible, yet strangely understandable, s(h)immer with repeated words/phrases like "seven, seven, seven key [____]" "interplanetary [____]" "astral intelligence gave them," "liberation receive them," "heavenly firmament kiss it," "multiplicity dissolvent" "spirit of the innocents save them"--or similar utterances. And even though they make no rational sense, they resonate with the deepest racial memories and human sentiments summed up by the world's greatest myths and religious stories. Sound like New Age blather? Maybe, but I don't think so.

    The rest is nearly as remarkable, if not quite as ambitious and far reaching. I am especially taken with the title cut, impossible dense yet unfolding with crystal clarity, sonically startling with its ominous percussive underpinnings, white noise wash, and massive brass assault yet featuring the most remarkable sound imaging where even single string instruments and belllike nuances ring out from the speakers. Indeed, from a production standpoint alone, this disc deserves highest praises. Other favorites include "Sidi Bou Said," with its faux East Indian textures, oriental oboe, and spot-on ensemble voicings, and "Innocent Eye, Crystal See," a simple melodic statement that just keeps unfolding with a magical assortment of string, percussive, and wind voicings until it becomes, finally, an incredibly rich sound tapestry. Not surprisingly, my favorite numbers are the three longest, where Kang and the players get to display the full monty of their instrumental and vocal glory.

    Eyvind Kang, someone always worth listening to, has here produced not only his masterpiece, but in my humble opinion, the greatest disc of the young millennium, music that sets the bar so impossibly high that I don't see it being topped anytime soon.

    5 out of 5 stars Recommended, and that's not auto-Patton Praise.......2005-04-24

    A rare example of work that is original (some very interesting use of violin et al), beautiful, and haunting. Those are words I would normally stone someone for using, but this album deserves them. Don't assume that you'll like Kang's other work if you like this. Mike Patton contributes- I like a lot of his work and recognise he's a lightning rod for gushing praise/criticism; but the result is subtle and his vocals add to the strength of the performance (believe this is live). It's also very accessible- I listen to all manner of noise that most of the people around me loathe, but all and sundry seem to love this one...

    5 out of 5 stars Kang and Patton, a perfect team........2005-04-02

    I have always loved Mike Patton's work. I'd never previously heard of Eyvind Kang before this album. A friend put me onto this and it is a masterpiece. Put this album on with some headphones, close your eyes, and this album will take you beyond what words can describe.

    4 out of 5 stars Delightful surprise.......2000-06-26

    I bought this album for nostalgia - my aunt had given me a 78 of I Saw the Harbour Lights. While the rendition of that piece is good, I was quick to discover that When Budapest Was Young is more interesting musically. I was surprised by the more classical pieces, surprised to find that a composer whom I knew only from pop music was, in fact, a talented composer in a more classical style - a classical European appreciation of the Afro-American sound. While he is very much a composer of his era - I don't think Grosz will be a big name in a thousand years - he is well worth your listening time.

    This Japanese mini-lp replica version of Clash's best album is simply a work of art! Very beautifully designed with all the lyrics included and with a sound quality remastered to perfection.
    This is by far the best version of this album that is out there; great sound quality, great packaging, great songs! A must have in any CD collector's library.

    5 out of 5 stars Pearl Harbour's best album ever !!!!!.......2001-09-20

    You can't go wrong with Pearl's "Here comes trouble" ! It rocks from start to finish with no filler. Great singing from Pearl and fabulous playing from her top notch band. This is her definitive album. I don't know why this album wasn't a hit on the radio ?! It's ready made for it in all the right ways. I sure wished that she would record a brand new album. Pearl, where ever you are please record a new album and return to playing live again.

    5 out of 5 stars "wish i were her!".......1999-06-21

    Great record, they dont have any bad songs that i've heard. Puts on a great show also! You were great at the hootinanny in '98, and the cramps show at the House of Blues later that year!! Sexy red white and blue outfit, at the former! You can be my hoochie-mama any time you want!

    5 out of 5 stars One of "The" Best Rock n' Roll albums around.......1998-10-02

    Not a bad song on the whole album. Pearl at her very best ! It rocks from the start to finish!! Why this album isn't played on the radio is a mystery to me ?! You won't be disappointed with "Here Comes Trouble".

    5 out of 5 stars Brilliant work!.......1998-08-09

    Pearl and her boys from San Francisco are the best! If you've never seen them live here in SF, you have missed the boat!!!!! These guys rock like there's no tomarrow.
