Customer Reviews:

Two tracks I really like.......2007-07-21

The Mission Impossible theme is performed well.
The Fireball theme is actually much improved on this version. I prefer the orchestra and the vocals over the original.

Quantity Over Quality.......2007-01-15

As a musician myself, I know too well that one of the most important ingredients in ANY performance (live or recorded) is passion. The recordings here generally lack the same passion and sheer drama of the originals. Much of the instrumentation has been reduced to a cheezy, thin, plastic synthesized replica. The performances are simply a watered-down lackluster version of the classic originals. If it were not for the sheer volume of tracks compiled here, I would have rated the comp only "one star".

Mediocre.......2006-05-17

The sound quality for this collection isn't much better than the samples offered by Amazon.

One Hundred Greatest TV Themes.......2005-08-06

I have watched almost all the shows that are on these 4 cd's. Many were made before I started watching TV. Most I've seen once or twice before.

Pretty close to original recordings.......2005-07-24

Definitely not as good as the originals. You'll probably notice the slight differences since it's stuff you saw and listened to every week or everyday in reruns growing up, but it's still an amazing collection.

Adventures in the Land of Music..........2007-05-06

I had forgotten about this group - that was my fault! They were an excellent R&B/Dance group who gave the consumer max value for their dollar. Standout songs: I've just begun to love you and Adventures in the land of music (sampled to death!). I paid $14/US for my disc! My rating for the disc: Five stars!

The dynasty of when R&B was really Rhythm & Blues.......2006-03-30

If you are one who thinks R&B is just midtempo and ballads then you have not experienced R&B as I grew up with. This is R&B of the bygone days when R&B artists were not afraid to put lots of rhythm into the mix but still be an R&B group opposed to a Disco or dance outfit.

Dynasty are just one on the kickin' groups from the legendary SOLAR (Sounds Of Los Angeles) record label responsible for such acts as The Whispers, Shalamar (Jody Watley and Howard Hewitt), Lakeside, Midnight Star and Babyface just to name some. Dynasty as well as all of these groups mentioned gave you a great mix of Ballads, Uptempo and Midtempo, not just ballads and mid. This is how I know R&B. Nowadays, if an R&B group puts out something that is club worthy, they are considered a dance or house group and that is just not the way it should be. R&B is about Rhythm and Blues, and rhythm is not just limited to midtempo and ballads but funky uptempo songs designed to get the feet moving.
The big dance numbers from this album that made it as singles and radio hits are I've Just Begun To Love You and Do Me Right, but Groove Control was another uptempo jam. As for ballads, Take Another Look at Love and Something To Remember were the downtempo ballads. The live version of I've Just Begun To Love You is a bonus track as it did not appear on my vinyl album.
Trully some excellent R&B.

Oh, Well.......2001-08-22

If you are looking for a CD that captures the real Dynasty, then this is the one for you. All of their hits are here. The album and live versions of "I've Just Begun to Love You" is here. Believe it or not, the title song, "Adventures in the Land of Music", has been sampled, like most songs during the R&B/Dance Era, by a rap group. This particular song is an awesome song and is very dynamic in it's horn arrangements. Some songs on here are fair to middlin', but only if you can appreciate Dynasty's approach to the R&B mixed with Dance ERA.

Solar's Musical Dynasty.......2000-06-21

It's Solar's first and the last line of hereditary rulers at their best. On Adventures in the Land of Music, Dynasty successfully attain the formula of blending Dance and R&B rhythms with smooth vocal harmonies. Also issued on this monstrous CD reissue is the band's top 10 R&B smash "I've Just Begun to Love You," recorded live during the Solar Galaxy of Stars Tour.

This CD is for those who like to put more than a "pep" in their step.

"under-rated scores from a legendary composer".......2001-03-01

The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Paul Bateman give each score in this compilation new life - "The Cardinal (The Classic Film Music of Jerome Moross)", awesome performances with state of the art technology in playback. About the composer, Jerome Moross always distinctive and sometimes superior quality to the subject matter were his film scores. Was playing the piano as soon as he could reach the keyboard - played by ear at age four, by eight was composing. Close friends to Bernard Herrmann a school-mate at De Witt Clinton High School in Manhattan - two tremendously talented people.

Moross orchestrated for Aaron Copland, Hugo Friedhofer and Franz Waxman between 1940 and 1952 - composed his first score "CLOSE UP" in 1948, music genuine drama and excitement, with shades of Gershwin, simple horns and Latin American rhythms.

Inclusive within the collectable album - "THE JAYHAWKERS", a suite written on the heels of "The Big Country", inhabits the same landscape with big orchestrational sound of the Great American West - "SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD", for the Holy Land a Hebraic melody, set with variations of flute with orchestrations blending with swells - "THE CAPTIVE CITY", is "pure Moross" as stated in the liner-notes, unmistakably our composer - "PROUD REBEL", the theme is very melodic, is complete with a beginning, a middle and ending - "THE CARDINAL", four movement suite arrangement by Christopher Palmer, one of the finest compositions ever written, liner-note tell the story in great detail.

Excellent liner notes by James Fitzpatrick (producer), thanks to Susanna Moross Tarjan and Reynold da Silva (associate producers) hats off to Silva Screen for this one-of-a-kind tribute to the legendary icon. If you enjoyed this CD, check out "The Big Country (music by Jerome Moross) on Silva America (SSD 1048), another classic score by our favorite composer - Jerome Moross!
