A 'top shelf ' recording, with great production too!.......2007-04-27
Sue Foley and Deborah Coleman come to this recording with deep credentials in the blues rock world, but Roxanne Potvin is not a name that I am very familiar with, but more about her later.
Often this recording is pleasing and at times very hot, especially on the NRBQ'ish rocking opening instrumental title track- Foley's `Time Bomb' which definitely races in true pedal to the metal fashion and just roars and soars! Foley's `So Far' is a rip roaring affair with a rockabilly tinge that is one of the finer compositions I heard from Foley in a while, and offers top notch blazing guitar rev-ups as Foley really wails on this track! But I could have done without her corny `Show Me' which really does not fit well with the rest of this CD. Coleman covers James Brown's `Talking Loud' in a Grateful Dead'ish `Shakedown Street' funky mode, complete with wah-wah effects, sassy background vocals, and is one of several fun tunes on this hip recording. The Coleman authored `Motor City' also utilizes soulful background vocals, and allows Deborah to do what she does best on her driving guitar, and the band also kicks in mightily especially the thumping bass of Jim Anton, and the strong B3 work of Mark Lickteig.
Potvin's `Get Up' is probably her best contribution here, but all due respect to Potvin, this CD could have easily been a Sue Foley meets Deborah Coleman recording, and does not need the third-wheel singer/songwriter/guitarist, as it would have been neat to have a couple of Coleman/Foley collaborations, especially instrumentally.
The albums closing track- Billy Davis' `In the Basement' made famous by Etta James is a riotous hoot, and allows all three ladies to sing a verse or two, and this tune is outstanding selection to round out this very neat recording.
`time Bomb' works very well at least half of the time, which by today's standards makes this CD a very nice recording to own. I would be remiss to leave out the fine production work of Kevin Bowe (best known for his work with Robben Ford, John Mayall, Etta James, Tommy Castro, Jonny Lang, and others,) and to the executive producers Thomas Ruf & Sue Foley, bravo!

Album Description
From the tribal dances of Africa to the silken grace of a European minuet, dance rhythms deliver the inspiration for Choreography, violin phenomenon Vanessa-Mae's first recording for the Sony Classical label. Backed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the stunning young violinist introduces new, dance-inspired tracks by composers as diverse as Oscar-winning Vangelis, Bill Whelan of Riverdance, Tolga Kashif (The Queen Symphony) & the Indian film composer A.R. Rahman (Bombay Dreams). Choreography will be released internationally in September 2004 (& in the U.S. early 2005). Sony.Album Details
2004 Album from "The Violin Player" as She Makes her Debut for Sony Music. She Does Two Numbers with Legendary Instrumentalist Vangelis and Conquers the "Sabre Dance" and "Bolero".Customer Reviews:
Not what I was expecting.......2007-06-04
However, after I listened to this CD, I was hugely dissapointed. While it has a great production value, orchestration, and showcases Vanessa-Mae's violin skills, I found most of the compositions to be nothing spectacular... and frankly, tedious... This failed introduction into Vanessa-Mae's work actually prevented me from trying out her other CDs for the past several years until now. For newcomers to Vanessa-Mae, I find her "The Violin Player" and "Best of Vanessa-Mae" to be immensly more superior CDs than this one.

Steaming pile of dog crap.......2005-06-13
I'm not trying to come at this from an elitist perspective, and say that electronic artists should keep their mitts off classical music altogether. I love to see the influences of great old music on great new music. But, honestly, there are just some things that should not be done. I love breakbeat, I truly do. But if you need a thumping breakbeat to feel the awesome, raw power of Verdi's "Dies Irae," you seriously need help. If you need to loop beats under Rachmaninov's "Prelude in C#-minor" to access its surging emotions, you should really just stop listening to music altogether.
I wouldn't just say this because I don't think electronic artists should touch classical music at all, because there are some tasteful renditions out there. For example, William Orbit's remix of Barber's Adagio for Strings was very well done. Nothing can touch the original of course, but as far as remixes go Orbit's rendition maintained the emotion and beauty of the piece and put it nicely within the sphere of electronic music. So, in this CD's case, it's not that they tried to redo the classics that made it so bad. It's that even in terms of electronic music, this whole CD just plain sucks. I mean, we're talking just completely unlistenable. Skylab 2000's pathetic rendition of Beethoven's Fur Elise is totally absurd, Eros has irreparably massacred the beauty of Schubert's "Ave Maria," and Joseph Jaime's version of the Rach prelude literally made me laugh out loud.
Please, for the sake of your own wallet and music altogether, do not buy this CD. It is of the worst, lamest quality, and I will be surprised if I encounter anything else this pathetic for a long time.

Roxanne Shante's Greatest Hits

This compilation comprises five tracks from Shanté's uneven debut Bad Sister, six from her merciless sequel, The Bitch Is Back, plus an over-produced new song and the deathless hit single, "Roxanne's Revenge," teenage Lolita Gooden's smart-ass riposte to U.T.F.O.'s "Roxanne, Roxanne." Shanté has attitude in her veins, and nobody else can come up with a dis as devastating as hers. When she turns her attention to dance tracks, though, it's not as effective as when she's tearing new orifices in MCs she doesn't like (meaning any who aren't named Roxanne Shanté). But then there's her voice, a high-grade sandpaper wonder, breathlessly racing through her catalog of snaps, like a bratty little sister who's fought her way all the way up to the throne. --Douglas WolkCustomer Reviews:
Even now, still one of the best!.......2006-06-30
Good, but could have been better.......2003-12-05
Not bad, but her best tracks aren't here.......2001-03-17
If you want to hear Shante at her very best, then the two following single releases 'Queen Of Rox: Shante Rox On' and the apocalyptic 'Bite This' are the tracks to find. It's incredible that they're not on here.
The tracks that are here are some average tracks from her debut album, (in which she went for the mainstream and lost what made her good), and better ones from the second album, which included her fourth and last classic track, 'Big Mama'. Not bad overall, and better this than nothing, but without those two singles, this is a very flawed compliation.

Why does everyone hate it so much?.......2005-12-24
The worst..........2005-01-10
I find no good excuse as a big fan of Sting for him to allow this damage strike one of his most famous songs ever.
Puffy is awful, no matter if he's a good dresser. His biggest hit ever, I'll Be Missing You -his adaption of Every Breath You Take- first left me with that well-earned impression.
Stop messing up Stings' fantastic songs, even though he allows you, Puffy!!!

P. Dudley Does It Again....Ooooooh Boy.......2003-07-07
He should never have touched this classic to begin with,as he can't come anywhere near Sting or his mastery of songcraft. Seems he wrecks anything he touches--just look what he did with Led Zeppelin's Kashmir. Hey,Dudley,a word of advice: you should only remix what you (think) you could do better,or at least just as good in another way. But for God's sake KEEP AWAY FROM THE CLASSICS!!! that's where your obvious lack of talent truly shines through. :}
