William "Bootsy" Collins was already a veteran of James Brown's band when he hooked up with George Clinton's Parliafunkadelicment thang in the early '70s. His outsize personality and preternatural good nature made him an obvious choice when Clinton came up with the idea of reaching for the preteen audience ("geepies") with a comic-book-style character; thus was born Bootsy's Rubber Band. Thumping tracks and Collins's stoned-sounding mumblings made the whole thing irresistible. Back in the Day collects many of the high points among the man's statements of purpose ("The Pinocchio Theory") and seduction moves ("Hollywood Squares"). --Rickey Wright

ALL THE SONGS ROCK!.......2007-02-22

Great music, awesome !!! Good back in the day funk..... that sounds still tight today.

FUNKALICIOUS!!!!.......2005-12-04

I usually don't recommend compliations,but no record collection should be complete without this.
Why?
The last track just may be the most exciting live performance recorded.

Something interesting to note..........2005-08-20

I think it's interesting that he does duets with Snoop(Dogg): "No Thang On Me", "Can I Get A Flicc Witchu" AND also with TobyMac(from DC Talk): "Diverse City."

It's interesting because while Snoop is rap and TobyMac is Rock/Rap, they are on the opposite sides of the hip/hop spectrum, lyrically, that is.

Ahhhhh, the name is Bootsy, Baby! .......2005-01-08

When first heard this, I took it back to the shop and asked for my money back, I'm serious! I was into Sly Stone, James Brown, and Funkadelic. My tastes at that time were pretty limited. After a year or so, I was sittin' round at a friends, amidst a plume of yellow smoke, talkin' gibberish, and somebody put this same cd on. Man... We cried laughing! Only then did I start to realize just HOW FAR OUT THERE this cat really is! Casper and all the Hollywood swinging, Pscycoticbumschoolin' grooves jus took me 'out the front door, and in tha back'!
Man!

The space bass is heard to full effect on here. I like the slow jams, like 'Mugpush,' 'Can't stay away,' and 'Vanish in Our Sleep.' His tunes have a hypnotic, nursury rhyme thing goin' on that nobody else could ever conceive, or get away with!

If you wanna get silly serious, get Bootsy!

Corny But Jammin!!!!.......2004-02-14

Aah It's Bootsy Baby I love this cd and I love this artist Bootsy Collins no one can dress or sound like Bootsy but him he is the only one that can do it Bootsy can jam and be corny at the same time I love Tthis cd they are some jammin songs !!!! And I would recommend anyone who likes classic funk to buy this cd anyone who digs Parliament to buy this cd !!!
My favorites are: Hollywood Squares, The Pinnochio Theory, Bootzilla, Stretching Out in A Rubber Band, I'd Rather Be With You, and many great others you definitely will enjoy!!!!

A good value.......2007-05-17

I wasn't expecting to have 4 discs for this price, and the music is a quality selection of film music, giving a good scope of the genre, and a very listenable transfer.

The Sound Track Since Bernard Hermann.......2006-07-25

This collection is bound to capture your heart and evoke a tin ear on successive tracks. I found much to like and some duds - easy to skip over.
Very good value.

Good mix of film music.......2006-07-02

Good mix of films!
I'm a big fan of this soundtrack music and will be looking for more CD's like this.

A mixed collection of movie music.......2006-02-23

For the price, this CD is a great bargain. The musical selections, as you might expect, are mixed in quality ranging from extraordinary to so so, the balance being worthwhile and interesting. Sonically the CD is excellent.

Fine reissue of a classic set.......2006-05-24

Think about the stupidest, most formulaic Hollywood movies you can think of: cheesy action pictures, fluffy, unfunny comedies, big but stiff epics. Now imagine that one of the greatest living composers was working in Hollywood, turning out astonishing, hauntingly beautiful and stirring musical scores for these throwaway movies. That's what you get with this set: music Henry Purcell composed for some two dozen often utterly forgettable plays (trust me--I've read a number of them!) Occasionally, when he teams up with a playwright worthy of his stature, such as John Dryden, Aphra Behn, or William Congreve, the results are even better, but for the most part you can enjoy the music here without knowing anything about the original plays.

This set originally appeared as separate LPs in the 70s and 80s, and has been long out of print. That's a pity, since Purcell spent a good deal of his short professional life in the theatre, either writing the incidental music contained on these CDs, or the music for his larger works, the semi-operas (King Arthur, The Fairy Queen, and the like). Almost all of these works are enjoyable gems; certainly, they represent a pinnacle of English 17th century music. Purcell had a genius for spinning musical gold out of the most leaden lyrics (check out his Odes and Welcome Songs on Hyperion if you don't believe me), and he does the same with the song texts in these plays.

Hogwood and the AAM offer clean, listenable performances, and the sound on these old analog discs has been cleaned up and brightened--although they were pretty good, even in the late 70s. As with most Hogwood, emotional extremes are kept to a minimum, so the "otherworldly" nature of late 17th century music, so often emphasised in more recent Baroque performances, doesn't come across here. It would be interesting to see what a group like The King's Consort would do with this music, but this set fills the major gap in the Purcell canon quite nicely.

My only beef with the reissue, as with many reissues, is that the liner notes are rather thin for a 6-cd set--the lyrics to the songs, for example, are especially missed. Still, it's a worthwhile set, and a must for fans of Purcell, English Baroque music, or anyone who just wants to experience a taste of the last days of the Restoration stage.

Background or Foreground?.......2001-07-31

Experience pleasant and enjoyable a capella realizations of Bach preludes, fugues, chorale and instrumental numbers. The Swingle Singers render some as vocal transcriptions of Bach's original, instrumental music, and others as jazz arrangements. Their hymn-like rendition of Ein Feiste Burg (A Mighty Fortress) bounces into a light and jazzy scatting of "Organ Fugue from Fantasia and Fugue." They perform 21 excerpts from Bach, none of which are too obtrusive for background music, yet all are excellent enough to listen to while doing nothing but enjoying the music.

Bach was a technical genius, and the Swingle Singers have the talent and creativity to bring his music alive, translating it into new idioms successfully. Worth every chord of five stars.

Swingle again.......2001-06-03

In the late 60's the Swingle Singers used to be a new advent. An inovative exercise on J.S.Bach. Now, revisited, there's a great pleasure to rear again the famous Badinerie and many other inspiring tunes like the Air on G string and the rarelly recorded Luther "Ein Feste Burg". The singers are much "Swingle" and the late harmonies comes alive. The arrangements are quite fresh although a bit diferent on the bass. At the end we find oursefs "swinging and marking". A recording to be listened on and on.

An original and charming interpretation of Bach.......1999-07-31

The Swingle Singers have been around for a while, but I think they are just hitting their stride with this release. They do an incredible job of interpreting Bach, and not just the pieces written for voice! This is a fresh, charming and, sometimes amusing, interpretation of Bach's work. I particularly enjoyed "Air on a G string" and "Little Organ Fugue."

The Bach cd impressed me so much, I've just ordered their Mozart offering..."Acapella Amadeus."

reacquaintance with waxman.......2007-04-22

i honestly don't know why i bought this cd. but there is a great deal to love about it. the main thing i love is the first suite, which is highlighted by an arrangement of his 'elegy for strings' for piano trio.

the second surprise is the witty set of variations on 'auld lang syne'.

the third is the price--very affordable and not a disappointment.

Old Acquaintances.......2000-04-29

The violinist on this recording really is supurb. You have entered the world of a pro that feels his music, commits to the era it was written for,and understands the composers emotions. The Four Scenes of Childhood express a special sentiment. What a treat to hear the first of its recording.

Absolutely Ravishing.......2006-02-15

This is one of about ten CDs (out of over one thousand) that, if forced to choose, would take with me to that perverbial desert island. Only Rosa Ponselle had a voice that could match Eleanor Steber in her prime for sheer beauty of tone and security of line. From standard coloratura fare to beloved chestnuts, this album could be an aural definition for the word "beauty."

Volume I is not enough.......2004-03-28

It is a welcome development that more and more of Eleanor Steber's work from 1940-1960 is being reissued. She was the greatest American soprano in her prime and too few of her complete opera performances were recorded. People who listen to this collection are amazed, because opera lovers of today associate Steber with her voice of the 1970s instead of the glorious instrument heard on this disc. Dead-on Rossini and Thomas coloratura? Sensual Massenet? Thrilling Puccini with breath control to spare? It's all on this recording and I urge VAI and the owners of the original source material to put together volume 2 so we can rediscover more of this treasure.

A great American soprano in her early prime.......2001-04-12

Eleanor Steber's tale is at once inspirational and cautionary. It is inspirational for her success as a home-grown and trained talent, a New England girl who became a leading artist at the Metropolitan Opera, possessing one of the most beautiful soprano voices of the twentieth century. Later she became a distinguished teacher of voice. It is cautionary for her frustrations with autocratic Met manager Rudolf Bing and the vocal difficulties of her later career, exacerbated by alcohol and relationships with unworthy men.

Happily, none of the darker side of Steber's life is vocally evident in this collection of recordings dating from her early years. Some of the earliest recordings, notably the Debussy, are substandard in sound, and some discomfort at the top is evident, a whitening and sharpening on sustained high notes. Whether this is due to a still-developing vocal technique or to the vagaries of recording technology is not clear. The Traviata excerpts are well-sung, but lack the Italianate tang and dramatic intensity of the great interpreters of the role. Any small reservations the listener may have, though, are completely vanquished by the later tracks, which reveal the familiar lustrous, seamless sound generously applied to Italian and French operatic repertoire, oratorio, and popular standards. Steber sings everything with emotional urgency, and reveals a surprising command of florid technique in the Rossini and Thomas arias. Her "Signore, ascolta," sung in English, justly draws an ovation from the live audience for its perfectly placed, long-sustained concluding B-flat--perhaps only Montserrat Caballe has equalled or surpassed Steber's rendition of this phrase. Her traversal of the hoary chestnut "Danny Boy" could draw tears from a statue. All in all, this CD is a great souvenir of a great American voice.
