Part of the '90s Seattle grunge triumvirate completed by Nirvana and Soundgarden, Pearl Jam debuted with Ten, their most accessible, least self-conscious album. Over time, PJ's rep as a politically correct band just a little too above it all to prostitute its music on MTV has nearly superseded the music. But before that, they were a simply an in-your-face, in-your-head, loud, melodic rock band. And lead singer Eddie Vedder was known for his possessed stage presence and a primal growl that sounded like it required three vocal chords. The personal, narrative singles "Alive," "Jeremy," and "Even Flow" catapulted the reluctant band into the 10-million-plus-sales division. Subsequent albums are more intricate, subtle, thematically complex, and, in many ways, better than Ten. But the band may never repeat the stampede caused by this debut. --Beth BessmerCustomer Reviews:
Ten is not their best in my honest opinion.........2007-07-13
"Once", "Even Flow", "Alive", "Jeremy" and "Black" are superb songs which are gems on their own. I actually cannot class this as a grunge album...Vedders vocals are way too spot on and great, the music is quite normal rock music and the production isnt so distorted. They DID go more grunge with VS. and VITALOGY, my more preffered albums.
Overall, Im not comparing this to Nirvana's NEVERMIND which I believe is a better grunge record, but this album isnt the best ever...Try out VS. and VITALOGY..they capture what the band want to do and succeed very well.
3.5 stars

A Perfect Ten.......2007-06-29
A Pure 100% Masterpiece.......2007-06-13
A truly legendary album that stands the test of time.......2007-04-07
In retrospect, it was truly an important album that helped shape an entire decade of music, and ushered in a truly legendary (albeit brief) era. Grunge. All of a sudden, sounding original and being musically talented were in style, and "Ten" is one of the key albums that paved the way for nearly all of the now legendary bands of the 90's (such as Radiohead and The Smashing Pumpkins).
And, musically, it truly holds up over time, because Pearl Jam are a band that are truly talented. The time in which "Ten" was released may have helped catapult them to the top of the charts, but their artistry is what has kept them there throughout their career. Listening to "Ten" now is actually more enjoyable for me than it was, say, ten years ago when I'd heard it so many times I knew every word.
Recommended strongly to any fan of rock music.

On their third album, Disturbed don't as much break out of expected patterns as show their potential for doing so. Fans eager for more of the band's patented fist-thumping gruel will take satisfaction in the album's opening (and anthemic) title track, plus "I'm Alive" and "Forgiven." The band shines brightest in the record's early moments, where "Deify," "Guarded," "Just Stop," and "Stricken" demonstrate that this unit's capable of discovering a song's subtleties and crafting radio-ready choruses meant to uplift the souls of disenfranchised subdivision dwellers. The album isn't without its problems--come the halfway mark ("Sons of Plunder") vocalist David Draiman and his mates lapse into the expected, with a series of songs that are good but rarely as remarkable as those found in Act I. That said, Ten Thousand Fists ultimately reminds us that Disturbed refuse to relent in their journey toward greatness. --Jedd BeaudoinAlbum Description
After a triple-platinum debut and platinum follow-up, Disturbed fuses the brutality and darkness of 2000's The Sickness with the added melodic nature and complexity of 2002's Believe for album number three. Aggressive, relentless and intense-yet at the same time transcendent-Ten Thousand Fists is a rock sledgehammer.Customer Reviews:
Have not received Item.......2007-06-27
gotta love disturbed.......2007-06-20
David's Vocals still give me the chills! I personally never understood the criticism they received after "Believe" came out and also after "Then Thousand Fists". I think all three of the albums are strong and great!
Ten Thousand Fists features a great array of songs...which my favorite one must be Deify...even though it may be seen as a little too political it's a great tune with an awesome meaning!!! The biggest surprise on this album was to me was "Stricken"... anybody that has ever been hurt by somebody (and I know we pretty much all have been :-) should be easily able to identify this song!
Can't wait for the next Album to come out!!!
A Classic.......2007-06-19
10k Fists rox my sox off.......2007-05-17
Having said that, I saw Disturbed in concert about a month before this CD was released, and they played many of the songs from the CD during the show. Having "Believe" practically committed to memory (I've bought it 3 times because I wore out the first two), I was hoping that Ten Thousand Fists was more of the same.
It was better than I expected. I was blown away! One song I don't recall them playing in concert was the Genesis cover "Land of Confusion". If a cover can be better than the original, then this is the one that did it! All the songs are good, even the political ones, and gets me going every time I pop the CD into the player.
What impresses me the most about Disturbed is how intelligent David Draiman is, and it shows in his lyrics. The musicians are clearly skilled and compliment Draiman's lyrics and powerful vocals. And I do have to agree with the reviewer that said the "monkey howl" or whatever the devil that vocalization is that Draiman does, doesn't translate in a live performance (not that he doesn't try).
I'm not your typical metal fan. I do, however, like to rock, and always have. The two Disturbed discs I have (Believe and Ten Thousand Fists) do that for me-- in other words, rox my sox off!
I could, as others here have done, rate each song, but since they're all good for any number of reasons, I'll refrain.
And, I've always maintained that once you see an act in concert, you'll become a fan. I liked Disturbed before i saw them in concert. Since then, I'm a fan! And I love this CD.
Disturbed...Best Band W/O excessive Hardcore Screams.......2007-04-25
Needless to say I bought the album ASAP and have not regretted it one bit. Disturbed is the only band that does not scream that I can listen to over and over again and not get bored with.

Debut solo album from the Corrs member. Warner. 2007.Album Details
2007 Issue of the Solo Album Debut by the Woman who is the Lead Voice Upfront in the Multi-million Selling Band with her Siblings. She Composed all the Songs on the Album Save for One, a Cover of the First Squeeze Hit "Take Me I'm Yours". The Tracks were Produced by Pop Veteran Nellee Hooper, who was Responsible for the Trademark Sound of Soul Ii Soul and who Has also Worked with U2, Gwen Stefani and Bjork.Customer Reviews:
Don't worry, Corrs fans....IT's GREAT!.......2007-07-27
All the doubts, and snide remarks, are the same ones that accompanied the original releases of "In Blue", "Borrowed Heaven", and, yes, even "Talk On Corners". Go back and read the original reviews, and you'll see.
This is a great album. As soon as Atlantic USA gets its act together and puts it in American stores, the long overdue Corrs revival will be on in the states. Andrea has done the family proud, and next year there will be a new Corrs album and tour.
For now, songs like "Ten Feet High", "Shame On You", and "Anybody There" represent not only songs good enough to be on ANY Corrs album, they are the best work done by ANYONE so far this year.
Way to go, Andrea.
someone please call Jim, Carolyn, and Sharon, ...fast!.......2007-07-22
Great album.......2007-07-21
A nice new direction for Andrea!.......2007-07-15
Produced by Nelle Hooper (Garbage, Björk, Madonna, U2, Soul II Soul), and executive produced by Bono (both of whom are the reason I gave it a listen, and eventually got it), it comprises a few Corrs style pop/folk songs, but mainly steers Andrea in an electro pop direction, a welcome change as I feel the Corrs sound had gotten rather tired.
Opening the disc are two upbeat pop songs; the marching feel of "Have a nice day", and the piano sprinkled "Anybody there".
Lead off single "Shame on you (to keep my love from me)" is available in two versions; a more atmospheric, stripped down version, and a dance edit which closes the disc. The lyrics tell the tale of a lover missing his/her partner who has gone off to war.
Staying on the upbeat side of things are "24 hours", and the excellent throbbing club song "Take me I'm yours" with buzzing and swirling synths, it's a cover of a Squeeze song and is one of my favourites.
Standouts however are the downtempo songs; the lullaby-like "I do" (complete with tinkling bells), "Ten feet high", "Champagne from a straw" (nice choppy feel with a great sax break), the delicate acoustic/piano ballad "This is what it's all about" (another favourite of mine), "Stupidest girl in the world" (nice piano set to hip hop beats), and the wistful folk feel of "Ideal world" with lyrics looking at different life situations - family, loneliness, low self esteem.
It does take a few spins to grow on you but a nice debut from Andrea Corr.
Excellent Debut.......2007-07-08
I enjoy the wide (VERY wide) variation in music, showing that she is not limited to any one or two formulas. I love the quieter songs that willingly expose the flaws in her voice; it makes her more human and the songs that much more personal. Too much pop these days is expected to be perfect, even at concerts. Andrea brings us the human side, with a LOT of personality here.
Admittedly it took a few listens for it to really grow on me. At first I was very unsure, but now I can't stop listening. One issue I do have with the album is that the vocals can sometimes get lost in the music a bit too easy, making it hard to understand.
I look forward to more of Andrea in the future.

An updated read on William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew, Gil Junger's 10 Things I Hate About You is a teen comedy about two sisters on opposite ends of the social spectrum: one is pretty and popular, the older sister is bitter and vengeful. Family rules dictate that the younger sibling can't date until the older one has. You see where this is going. The soundtrack features Letters to Cleo in a '70s mood covering Cheap Trick's "I Want You to Want Me" and Nick Lowe's "Cruel to Be Kind." Sweden's Cardigans include a rare B-side, "War." George Clinton's "Atomic Dog," Joan Armatrading's "The Weakness in Me," and Madness's "Wings of a Dove" still sound fresh. The only real misstep is Sister Hazel's "Your Winter," which sounds like a Seven Mary Three parody, full of breast-beating sincerity and lyrics that defy the laws of coherence. --Rob O'ConnorCustomer Reviews:

Warner Bros. did with the CD release of the 1970 vinyl LP 10 Years Together: Best of Peter, Paul & Mary what every label should do with CD reissues of vinyl compilations. They took into account the longer length of CDs and added tracks. The original release of 10 smash hits has been fleshed out here with three additional tracks, including a melodic take on Dylan's Basement Tapes rarity "Too Much of Nothing." Otherwise, it's hits and nothing but hits, ranging from definitive folk interpretations ("If I Had a Hammer") to pop ("I Dig Rock 'n' Roll Music") to Dylan and Gordon Lightfoot covers that compete with the originals and first brought such material to the mainstream. Only "Cruel War" is missing. --Bill HoldshipCustomer Reviews:

38 minutes of Greatest Hits.......2006-01-18
It's always a bit difficult to review a Greatest Hits album -- people always quibbling about what songs in their opinion were unjustly left out and which they could have done without. I always think that's pointless, but I can't resist jumping on the bandwagon this time... True, this CD release improves on the earlier LP version by adding 3 tracks, but the total playing time still only comes to less than 38 minutes. That just doesn't cut it for me in the age of the CD format. So, what would I add? Well, how about "This Land is Your Land," "Where Have All The Flowers Gone," or "Kumbaya," "Michael Row the Boat Ashore," "Down By The Riverside," or even "Because All Men Are Brothers." Ah, fair enough... if I'd wanted those tracks, I should have purchased either the 2CD collection, "Around the Campfire" or the newly released and remastered "The Very Best of Peter, Paul, and Mary." Don't get me wrong, "Ten Years Together" is a decent album with some classic hits from PPM, but if you want something more complete and a better value for your $, check out either of those two albums first -- I wish I had (and I wish I'd read a review that made this clear). Then again, with "The Very Best..." available now, you should be able to pick up "Ten Years Together" for a dollar or two.
Crisp American folk music.......2005-10-16
A collection that also makes me cruise to the 60's, both with its melodies and lyrics. The themes are socially and politically oriented making them even more universal.

The former jazzman-turned-punk is now more middle-of-the-road than a yellow stripe. But Ten Summoner's Tales is by far the most engaging of his solo records. The singles "If I Ever Lose My Faith in You" and "Fields of Gold" prove the man can lighten up long enough to go deep. "She's Too Good For Me" would have been a good Police single if it weren't for the pseudo-classical midsection that takes its joke far too seriously. Still, you wish he would loosen up and enjoy the rock once in a while. --Robert WilonskyAlbum Description

Hold on for some great ones.......2007-05-29
It includes the super hit Fields of Gold which is a timeless beautiful song, and the uplifting If I ever loose my faith in you- which is quite fun to listen to. It also includes the slow dramatic shape of my heart.
Shape of my heart's music has since been borrowed by both Monica and Craig David.
The CD has a lot of flow, and versatillity and prooves why even though we can't have the Police anymore, why we're glad Sting is a solo act. He can carry the show on his own as he prooves his with his deep mellow voice, and interesting ground breaking sounds.

A funny thing happens around track three of Ten, Brian McKnight's intricate, nuanced, and very grown-up follow-up to 2005's Gemini: he starts sounding like Daryl Hall. It's a blip overall, but it's indicative of McKnight's chameleon-like way with an R&B song. At times he stands unapologetically in the shadows of Marvin Gaye (see "Shoulda Been Lovin' You"), at times he tries on Luther Vandross's silky tones ("Don't Take Your Love Away"), and at times he leans in a direction that seems carved from a cross-section of the two ("Holdin' On"). The dip into Daryl Hall is a neat addition--a cool swerve that should protect McKnight from predictability charges. More than that, it demonstrates a clear-eyed artistic approach. It doesn't necessarily make him a smooth-singing maverick, though. Tim & Bob, the studio wizards who helped score hits for Bobby Valentino, Donell Jones, and others, cowrote four of Ten's strongest tracks, the radio hit "Used To Be My Girl" among them. And Rascal Flatts, the country act, teams up for the flag-waving, well-intentioned "Red, White, and Blue." McKnight's maneuvers, shot through with versatility, haven't failed him yet; on a scale of one to ten, Ten rates a nine. --Tammy La GorceAlbum Description

I think Brian needs to get back to his real roots - great ballads and smooth uptempo grooves with great harmony and nice chord changes. He seems also to have almost completely lost that jazz edge that he had before. It seems as though he is simply going for commercial success. The ironic question is - how successful have his recent albums been? How big have his collaborations with rappers and flavour-of-the-month producers been? Not very. I am afraid that "10" won't do very well either. So regrettably I won't be buying this album.

Where has Leonard Cohen been for the past nine years? The legendary songwriter's mostly been in a Zen monastery, it turns out, obsessively rewriting and polishing the oblique, lapidary lyrics for this austere collection. Ten New Songs is arguably Sharon Robinson's record as much as Cohen's--she cowrote all the songs, plays most of the instruments (primarily a synth that seems to have freshly emerged from a chintzy 1984 power ballad), and accompanies Cohen's gloomy croak with her own crooning. This is the most subdued album Cohen's ever made, which is saying something. It's as if he no longer has time for anything in music or performance that could alter the meaning and force of his words. --Douglas WolkCustomer Reviews:
A new Leonard Cohen fan........2007-03-27
Welcome back, Mr. Cohen...........2007-03-11
Take a Walk Down "Boogie Street" with Mr. Cohen.......2007-02-22
"Songs of Leonard Cohen" (1968), Cohen's first, was produced after becoming an accomplished poet and novelist. Generally the singer has received greater attention in Canada and Europe than the good ol' U.S.A. Listen to any older album prior to 1984 with the exception of "Death of a Ladies' Man" (1977) and one hears soul-bearing songs - dirges in the vein of open wrists and blood dribbling married to the sound of pure, simple instruments. However, the prosaically named album, "Ten New Songs" (2001), has a tinge of the hopeful but also continues the synthetic mood music begun by Cohen's 1984 album, "Various Positions." The slight upbeat in lyrics can be attributed to a lifelong depression recently leaving (in an interview Cohen says he read the brain loses its anxieties as it grows older and cites this as a possible reason for his depression lifting).
Sharon Robinson (co-author of "Everybody Knows") appeared as a back-up singer on past albums and is by Cohen's side again as a back-up singer, co-writer, producer and arranger (probably left something out). Robinson actually shares the album's cover photo with Cohen. One may begin to wonder why her name is not besides Cohen's on the album's title since her input is apparently quite significant (Cohen's vision forms the album). She croons the title refrain, "In My Secret Life," several times on the opening track just before handing over the meat of the lyrics: "I saw you this morning./ You were moving so fast./ Can't seem to loosen my grip/ On the past./ And I miss you so much./ There's no one in sight./ And we're still making love/ In My Secret Life." Cohen's signature melancholy is still evident. "I'm turning tricks, I'm getting fixed,/ I'm back on Boogie Street" ("A Thousand Kisses Deep"). "You Have Loved Enough" proves true love is present and thriving among the darkness. "That I am not the one who loves - It's love that seizes me./ When hatred with his package comes,/ You forbid delivery./ And when the hunger for your touch/ Rises from the hunger,/ You whisper, 'You have loved enough,/ Now let me be the Lover.'"
The glaring deficit of "Ten New Songs" is the music or more appropriately called muzak. Often, only humdrum sounds accompany the adept lyrics. Randomly pick a track and chances are the same artificial drumbeat along with an electronic keyboard mix that sounds awfully close to what one can produce with a couple hits of a home keyboard and its repeat button will be heard. Serious flaws that would have crippled most albums, but Cohen's impeccable delivery and polished poetic lyrics make the trip down "Boogie Street" irresistible.

EVEN IF I'M NOT IN LOVE, I'D DODGE RUBBER BULLETS FOR THIS CD.......2006-06-12
Included on this single-disc set are 15 of 10cc's best recordings. As a teen in the late 70s, I was familiar with their biggest radio hits: the haunting I'M NOT IN LOVE, the infectious THE THINGS WE DO FOR LOVE, and the philosophical FOR YOU AND I. Upon purchasing this collection, I was pleasingly introduced to a dozen other gems from this talented group, and I would recommend it to anyone.
'70s music.......2006-04-06
This group were huge back in the 1970's, in the UK alone they had 12 Top 30 hit singles. This CDE collects all their major numbers, making it great value and is all the 10CC you'll ever need!
A Very nice Shot in the arm !!!! 10 CCs to be precise ..............2006-03-25
It sounds like several different bands from different genres and even different time periods - but the lack of consistancy is well made up for in the HIGH QUALITY of these brilliant songs!
I grew up with Rubber Bullets, Good Morning Judge, Art for Art's Sake,even Dreadlock Holiday and this is just some darn fun music to listen to. It's an absolute shame that these geniuses didn't remain any more consistent. Who knows, maybe they will
submerge again like Toto or the new Cars ? I would be a fan then because I am now.
Don't even hesitate to buy this one.....It's worth about 25.00 to me and I'm a little more than frugal.
I may not do "the wall st. shuffle" very often but when this disc is in my player - my feet are definitely shufflin' - and I'll be shuffling around in my pockets for a handgun if someone decides to get the wrong idea and wants to burn a copy of this one from me, or burn me in general. Unless you are crawling with leprosy, crawl down to the bank and deposit some cash for this wonderful 10CC disc, if you don't like it - go have your brain scanned... Thanks Guys !

Kevin, Lowell and the rest of the parade of writers who infested Ten CC at one time or another laid the sophisticated lyric observations on thick(ly) over musical beds rooted in the same sort of riffs we're accustomed to with McCartney, Men at Work, Graham Parker and Tears for Fears.
Which, along with the considered lyric "acting," makes the wry, glib, "experiential teaching model" lyrics nicely accessible without having to read along to the itsy bitsy printed ones on the insert (as one has to do with Alanis or Gwen, for example).
There are a couple of low spots on this pretty much chronologically-ordered, "chart topper" collection, which (unfortunately) puts the pre-Ten CC, UK hit "Donna" first. I'm not at all crazy about the digital remastering, either. The original work on analog vinyl had a much "tube-ier" warmth.
But most of the material is acceptable for a sampler, even though original albums like "How Dare You?" and "Bloody Tourists" are more listenable front-to-back and offer more accurate representations of the group at their creative apogee.
