This comprehensive five-disc retrospective of the Velvet Underground chronicles the band from its earliest demo tapes, recorded in 1965, to Lou Reed's final work with band, in 1970. At their notorious peak, Reed, John Cale, Sterling Morrison, and Mo Tucker epitomized the sound of intellectual art punks being spontaneously creative in Andy Warhol's Manhattan. Rock & roll has never been the same since Reed's gutter-rock observations and Cale's cool, droning electric viola blanketing the band's mysterious three-chord innovations. It's all here: loads of feedback, classic songwriting, and Reed's transformation from Dylan imitator to sonic-rock auteur. With previously unreleased gems, live performances, and other oddities, this is everything you wanted to know about the Velvets but were afraid to ask. --Mitch Myers

review of the compilation.......2007-05-12

I regret that i got carried away by the recommendations given on my previous purchases as well as the other reviews on this compilation
"Peel slowly and see" is definitely one of the worst in my collection.

It sounded more like a jam session by a not so talented garage band! Do i say more.
Can i have my money back or atleast exchange the same for some better music?

the greatest box set ever.........2007-01-07

i've owned this set about three times for one reason or another. i always come back to it, though because it holds up well. it actually holds up better than most of the music that came out of that hippie era because the experimentation was way ahead of its time. i also like the way the avant garde blends with pop melody, to make it more accessible in some way..this music really is not as hard, as say Ornette Coleman is to fully digest. you just have to have an ear for it..beleive me, the rewards come in great dividends for sticking with this music.

The Whole Is Not the Sum of its Parts.......2006-06-21

I hate to give anything by the Velvets less than 5 stars but "Peel Slowly and See" has enough unessential material that it weighs down the classic albums. The first disc of demos can really be only listened to once. Repeated takes of semi-acoustic versions of songs on the first album that don't go anywhere plus a couple of unreleased songs like "Prominent Men", from when Lou Reed was still worshipping at the temple of Bob Dylan. Of course, hearing "The Velvet Underground and Nico" and "White Light, White Heat" are a necessary experience in anyone's life. The first album (found on the 2nd disc with out-takes) was totally unique when it came out. Yeah there were maverick groups out there that experimented with noise (Red Crayola, AMM) but the Velvets were the ones that got it right, making any efforts of the flower children wilt in comparison. "White Light/White Heat" (on disc 3) is a step further. It did not sell well at the time which was a reflection not on the album but how ahead of its time it was. It would take a decade for rock to catch up with it though some groups such as the Stooges were quick learners. "Sister Ray", in itself inspired bands and is a piece of punk perfection, an extended song that seems maniacally focused the whole time so that you can't take your attention from it. The clip of "Melody Laughter" on the 2nd album is a section of a noise jam, from a very listenable concert from 1966 that should be released officially. "Guess I'm Falling in Love" and "Booker T" on disc 3 are two songs from a 1967 concert that no one has heard and is rumored to be in the possession of John Cale and deserves an official release on its own. The out-takes on disc 2 and 3 are of minimal interest. The Nico songs are good but she would get even better when she left the band and released the scarily teutonic "The Marble Index" (produced by John Cale). Disc 4 contains "The Velvet Underground" a lesser (but still important album) after John Cale had exited the band. Recent groups from Galaxie 500 to Yo La Tengo could be said to be influenced by this album though it is nowhere near the masterpiece of the first two albums. "Loaded" (on the 5th disc) is of minimal interest. I'd recommend that you purchase the first two albums, perhaps the third and skip the box set.

Despite a few flaws, an essential purchase.......2006-01-24

The Velvet Underground is probably one of the most written about bands of all-time. Their influence and genius is well-known so I won't bore the reader with tired truisms about the band. Instead, this review will be very meat-and-potatoes, focusing on the content, and pros and cons of this box set.

"Peel Slowly and See" (1995) is a five disc box set and includes all four Lou Reed era albums that were commercially released while the Velvet Underground was an active band; "The Velvet Underground and Nico," (1967) "White Light/White Heat" (1968) "The Velvet Underground" (1969) and "Loaded" (1970). While the first disc is a collection of demos, disc 2-5 each contain a complete album, with a lot of bonus material. The bonus material includes live cuts, demos, and finished studio tracks that were recorded between the third album "The Velvet Underground" and the fourth and final Lou Reed era album "Loaded," (this material can be found on the "lost" Velvet Underground album "VU" (1985) and its follow-up "Another VU" (1986).

If you are a fan of the Velvet Underground "Peel Slowly and See" is highly recommended. While it would be cheaper to just pick up the four studio albums individually, it is better to spend a little more money on this set and get a ton on bonus songs ($60.00 as opposed to $40.00). The demos are great, as you get an inside look at history being created and it's cool to hear songs as works-in-progress. The live songs sound great and should no doubt please fans of the band. The bonus material, selections from "VU" and "Another VU" stand as some of the band's best recordings and are generally just as good as what's on the first four albums.

While the value of the material on this set is indisputable, the way the box-set is compiled is flawed. Except for "Loaded," each disc does not start with the studio album, which is a bit annoying, but not really a big deal as the tracks of the albums are in order and you can just start the CD where the album begins. The biggest flaw, however, is that this set only contains selections from "VU" and "Another VU." It would have been far more desirable if both albums were included in their entity, so the consumer would have the complete works of the Reed-era available in one place.

It also would have been great if the Velvet Underground's fifth, post-Reed-Morrison-Tucker; now out-of-print album "Squeeze" (1973) had been included. While "Squeeze" has a reputation of being utterly awful, it is still part of the band's history and should be available. I have recently acquired a bootleg CD of "Squeeze" and it's nowhere near as bad as people say it is. While it is nowhere near as brilliant as the band's other work, (it's basically a Doug Yule solo album, Deep Purple's Ian Paice plays drums) it's still pretty cool in its own right and should be available for fans to hear.

One criticism of this set that I don't agree with is that it contains a "closet mix" of the band's third self-titled album, which sounds a bit stuffy compared to the original release. This isn't really a problem though, as the non-"closet mix" is still in-print and readily available. Both versions are worth owning.

Despite a few flaws in the way this set in set-up, it's still most definitely worth owning, as it contains all four albums and a vast array of bonus material.

Here is what I recommend you do:

Buy "Peel Slowly and See," along with "VU," "Another VU" and the non-"closet-mix" of "The Velvet Underground" in order to get a complete collection.

A wonderful encore to the movie soundtrack!.......2003-07-20

After I listened to the CD 'Music from the motion picture The Pianist', which had one piece played by Wladyslaw Szpilman, it was only natural to want to hear more recordings of this great musician and person. This CD has 13 music pieces by Szpilman, and they are wonderful. The movie used mainly Chopin's music, but Szpilman's repertoire- which he preserved through mental piano practice during the war- is quite varied. The CD has him playing Rachmaninov, Schumann, Debussy, Albeniz, Gruenfeld, J.S.Bach, Kreisler, and of course Chopin (Nocturne in C sharp minor appears twice- recorded in 1980 and 1948 respectively).

The highlight of the CD is Szpilman's own composition- Concertino for Piano and Orchestra which he mentions in his book, and which he wrote in 1940- just when the difficult times began.

Szpilman's piano style is different from that of Janusz Olejniczac, whose performances are on the other CD. They both are wonderful in their own way, but it was exciting for me to listen to the real life Pianist. I will look for more works by Wladyslaw Szpilman, including his songs.

The Pianist Original Recordings.......2003-03-26

THe Pianist won 3 Oscars on Sunday
This classical recording inspired Roman Polanski to direct this great movie about a pianist, Szpilman who survived the war.
Everyone should have this cd in their collection.

Impressive CD by the Pianist.......2003-01-06

Could not wait to get my hands on this one. Sorry, but did have to buy it elsewhere. Could not wait. After seing the movie I wanted to know more about this man and what he played. It includes his version of Chopin's Nocturne as performed on the end credits. Great !
Only sorry that I did not get such a good deal as from Amazon. This is a keeper !

The original recordings by THE PIANIST W. Szpilman.......2003-01-06

I saw Polanski's "THE PIANIST" last weekend and was very impressed and wanted to learn more about the real hero of the movie. I searched online for his recordings. After two days I received two CD's from Amazon.com related to Wladyslaw Szpilman: One with his beautiful songs by Wendy Lands and another one with his Original recordings. He plays wonderful Chopin ( i.e. the Nocturne from the final scene of the movie ), Rachmaninoff, Bach and his own music - Concertino for Piano and Orchestra composed in the Warsaw Ghetto in a time of deepest repressions by the Germans. He was a great pianist but I was surprised how optimistic is his music and indeed how American it is. After I learned his story through the movie, now I also got in touch with this man personally, trough his artistry. Great feeling!!

this CD defined the beginning of a legendary band!.......2007-02-10

as a huge mxpx fan and listening to these guys for the last 11 years, this CD gets straight to the point with great punk smashing music and clever lyrics that raises eyebrows.
my personal favorite band and one of the greatest of all time in punk music.

Best MxPx album to date........2006-11-29

I'm surprised to see that a lot of the reviews of this album claim that this was not when MxPx was at their peak. Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo, the follow-up to their breakout alubm Life In General, is easily their best effort to date. I can't say much about guitar or bass (since I know nothing about them), but Yuri's drums on this album are intense! Mike's vocals and lyrics are slightly more polished than those of earlier albums and the band hadn't yet hit complete "pop punk" status. This album is some good fun rock. If you're a fan of MxPx and haven't heard Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo yet, you HAVE to buy it now--this is MxPx at their peak, and it's awesome.

Somewhat disappointing...defintely not what I expected........2006-07-17

The first two songs I ever heard from MxPx were Grey Skies Turn Blue and Wrecking Hotel Rooms and I completely loved them. I was looking for more of the same when I bought this album and what I found was all fast, hard rock. I bought this album because it was so highly recommended both here and on various christian rock playlists. Now it's not like I don't like this style of music, it's just that virtually every song sounds the same because of the same overbearing drum rhythm. I'm hoping that it grows on me, but at the moment I'm kind of repulsed by it.

If anyone knows any songs or artists that are closer in style to the first two songs I mentioned, please email me at erpartlan@yahoo.com. Haha, don't worry, I'm not a kid, I just don't have an account. Also, can anyone tell me if the other songs in Panic sound anything like the songs in this one?

A good album.......2006-06-15

While not MxPx's best, this is still a great album. My favorite songs are The Final Slowdance, Inches From Life, and Tommorow's Another Day, plus a few others that I can't think of the names right now. This is a good album for any MxPx fan, but if you are new to MxPx you should start with Let It Happen, or Life In General.

High School Albums..........2006-06-08

This was one of those cds that you would memorize every word to and stand in front of your mirror playing air guitar in your underwear.

If you know what I am talking about, then this cd is for you.

The Kronos Quartet have been luminaries of modern Western classical music for more than thirty years. So despite their previous forays into world music, a headlong dive into the alternative universe of Bollywood (Bombay-plus-Hollywood) soundtracks may seem somewhat incongruous. But Kronos leader David Harrington is a longtime fan of composer R.D. Burman¹s florid pop extravaganzas, which propelled an already saturated palette into day-glo and beyond. To get the project off the ground, he had to convince one of India¹s prolific and versatile "playback" singers to come on board. The legendary Asha Bhosle is a renowned Burman interpreter so securing her services was a major coup. To replicate the reverb-laden "wall of sound" typical of Burman arrangements, Kronos and Ashaji, accompanied by Indian percussionist Zakir Hussain and Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man, overdubbed themselves into a teeming multitude. However, there is nothing soulless or "canned" about the results; indeed, composer and singer emerge refreshed and more vivid than ever before, shaking their stuff amid swirling Technicolor veils of tongue-in-cheek mystery and sensuality. --Christina Roden

Album Description

Sumptuous and surreal, the Kronos Quartet and Asha Bhosle's You've Stolen My Heart is not unlike the colorful, melodramatic Indian film musicals to which it pays tribute. Eight of its twelve tracks feature superstar Bollywood film playback singer Asha Bhosle, widely considered the world's most recorded vocalist. The songs were chosen from the repertoire of her husband, the late composer R.D. Burman, who revolutionized the sound of the movies produced at Mumbai's (formerly Bombay) fabled studios, a.k.a. Bollywood.

Customer Reviews:

Warning: this CD is addictive.......2007-01-12

Now in her early 60s, Asha Bhosle's voice has matured since the heyday of her Bollywood career in the 60s-70s and in these reworkings of some of her greatest hits (written by her late husband R.K.Burman) it's positively honey-like. The collaboration with Kronos Quartet is inspired: substitute electronically enhanced violins for Duane Eddy guitars and you have an inkling of the ideas flying around the disc. The liner notes are informative and there's plenty of information for the Bollywood novice. However, whether you understand Hindi or not, this is a collection of songs - humorous, romantic, tacky, and at times so hilariously naff in the way of Indian homages to western pop it's actually cool! I would be amazed if you don't want to keep going back to it, once heard.

Clever, but...........2006-04-07

Chronos has always emphasized being clever over being musical- although they are splendid musicians- and this album is perhaps the ultimate exegesis of that. The actual music is perhaps exotic, to western ears, but it is also uninteresting. Indian film music combines the sound of the East with the banality of pop, and the result isn't anything that bears more than one listening; personally, I was continually reminded of the incidental Indian-themed music that kept popping up in the Beatles' movie "Help", although that soundtrack was a bit more clever. Another volume for the library of the die-hard Chronos fan, perhaps, but not necessarily anyone alse.

Bhosle, Pavrotti, Sinatra.......2006-02-12

Some vocalists are one-of-a-kind, brilliant and beautiful, setting the standard for their particular music. Asha Bhosle is one of them. I heard her with the Kronos in performance in San Francisco, and they took my breath away. This album isn't quite the same as being there but it's very, very close. Asha, Kronos - please do it again!

Cheap music.......2006-01-02

I dont know how the kronos quartet to come down so low. The music is cheap. I couldn't hear any of the tracks completely. They were so insipid.Complete waste of money. I have heard much better from Asha.

I Think They Should Have Selected a More Contemporary Singer.......2005-11-05

I love Asha Bhosle and one only has to listen to her Live at the Albert Hall album. Problem is, she has aged, and her voice shows it. Regrettably, her vocals on this album constantly remind me of this and I can't listen to the album with pleasure. I would say the same of such wonderful singers as June Carter and Amalia Mendoza. This was a wonderful opportunity to introduce much of the world to the zaniness of Bollywood movie music, with its fabulous arrangements and wacky use of all imaginable instruments from all over the world. Instead it makes me sad to hear Asha not at her peak.

Product Description

Doveman plays lamp rock and insomnia pop, drawing deeply from downtown jazz, new classical, slowcore, debonair ‘60s pop, and ambient music to create an unusual and delicate sound that The New York Press says "evokes that rare moment when nostalgia and sadness meets love." Time Out New York once remarked that Doveman singer Thomas Bartlett “often sounds as if he’s on the brink of passing out from heartache fumes,” but Doveman’s music isn’t about fainting but rather the rapturous swoon which precedes it. Doveman's debut record, The Acrobat, is reminiscent of downbeat masters of melancholy like Nick Drake, Before and After Science-era Eno, and the latter-day Talk Talk, and the music has the unmistakable ring of pre-dawn loneliness, as intimate as it is forlorn.

Music to get you Dreaming.......2007-04-16

Doveman creates achingly gorgeous songs from sentimental journeys not of this world.
From Honey, the first track to Dancing, the last track, being mesmerized by the breathy vocals to falling into a state of euphoria, seems common place and welcomed. Spiritual.....

I really enjoy the quiet music that resembles N. Drake or Mark Hollis. This is different from other artists akin to this indie sound.
The Acrobat makes my top 100 list for all time, and that could be achieved by the artwork and ghostly invasion alone .

This is too much, this is awesome! .......2007-07-26

I found this one at a Borders store I believe it was and was amazed it was even available. Obituary was the first Death Metal band I ever listened to and I had the old CD of "Slowly We Rot" only, and to get their first 2 CD's for a decent price, remastered, with extra tracks was just too much of a good thing I thought. The great part about these types of packages is the amount of space they take up also, I may get the next two CD's also eventually.

Eventually I've gotten into bands like Death, Morbid Angel, and of course who can leave out Possessed and their "Seven Churches" CD..which I guess can be considered an early version of a DM band. Obituary remains my favorite of all time though, "Slowly We Rot" I can listen to over and over, especially in the fall (Halloween season), just sets the mood perfectly at times. I've taken a liking to DM Bands who started out in the late 80's. The new stuff I could care less about, but these bands are the founding fathers of death, and it's just awesome to see them re-issued and remastered over the years! If you are into Death Metal at all, and are just starting out or whatever, do yourself a favor and check out the beginnings of the genre and some of these bands that started it all.

These "remasters" are horrible - .......2007-01-06

Slowly We Rot and Cause of Death are two amazing death metal albums. Roadrunner has issues a lot of these 2 for 1 packages (suffocation, gorguts, etc...), and to be honest, its a rip off. The inserts have nothing new, and its just 1 piece of papaer with no additonal information; not even a band history has been added. It really just a waste. If you already own these two albums, there is no need to pick this up. Also, I notice no difference in the sound compared to the original CD's.

GREAT OLD-SCHOOL DEATH METAL!!!.......2006-05-06

Obituary was one of the main DM bands to come out of Florida in the late 80's- early 90's. They disbanded for a while, but recently got back together & released another album, "Frozen in Time," which I hear is actually pretty good. But I guarentee it DOES NOT beat either of these 2 masterpeices... I don't know which one of these I like better. I'd have to say at 1st I liked "Cause of Death" better, but I've been listening to "Slowly We Rot" again lately, & it's just as good. I recommend this "2 From the vault" double pack because you get BOTH of their original classics remastered and for the same price as you'd pay for just one of them by themselves. Great DM here, get on the ball & get it man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

its fathersday, & i want my cake........2005-01-12

if a rotting corpes popped out of the ground & started talking to you, he would sound like john tardy.i heard that on the 1st album ("slowly..") they did'nt even bother to write lyrics for a lot of the songs.he would just scream,growl,grunt,& howl whatever sounded right.this may turn some people off but its so cool to me.this may have came out 4 or 5 years after "scream bloody gore" & "seven churches" but i still consider obituary 5 of the founding fathers of death metal.nothing realy stands out on either album from any other part of either album(did that make sence?).no one band member realy stands out either .they all compliment one another equally here for two well rounded & very entertaining cds.i would have to say, though that if somone asked me what death metal was i'd have to pop in "cause of death" track 7 ,the title track.

Terrific set worth buying.......2004-07-10

Obituary was one of the myriad of death metal bands to rise out of Florida in the late '80s, along with bands like Cannibal Corpse, Deicide, and Death. And they are probably the best of those bands. Sure, they're pretty much a more extreme version of Death's first album, but the music IS very good, and there are some doom-metal bits scattered over both these albums. While the albums here aren't as good as their next two albums (with Cause of Death being their career lowpoint), there are enough good songs on here to warrent picking this up. Everything sounds great with the remastering, and there's a few bonus tracks for each album.

On the downside, no lyrics are included (though the vocal are partially understandable). Plus, the cover artwork is horrible. What's with the cheesy, kinda CG looking hands and crypt, with the bands name looking very out of place? Would it have been so hard to simply have the band logo, and pictures of the albums included?

Despite the packaging, this set is still worth picking up for it's low price and great music.

An American Picnic.......2002-08-11

I have three of the Dinner Classics. "Dinner For Two" "Romance"
and "A Cocktail Party" All are wonderful cd's and I would like to find more, other than what is listed here. "An American Picnic" is good but I like "Dinner For Two" the best.

Worth It.......1999-11-29

This album is one of the "must haves" in the great "Masterworks Dinner Classics" series. Beautiful!

wonderful memories of a great artist.......2005-02-22

I too went to Covenant College with Jennifer, and hearing her amazing music brings back many good memories of hearing her practice and perform live, as well as the Lookout Mtn./Chattanooga region in general. Jen Daniels is a uniquely gifted and naturally talented singer/songrwiter, and an excellent guitarist, who is in my opinion on par with one of my favorite bands, The Innocence Mission. I highly recommend her CDs to anyone who likes good music. As a guitar instructor, it is always a joy to expose students to music they might not otherwise hear, and I had the priveledge of introducing someone to Jennifer's music just this evening, before writing this message. It will be my pleasure to hear her perform one day again, but until then I will buy her live CD as well.

"It's a Good Day to Live!".......2002-10-31

Jennifer Daniels is a gift from some higher place. Her music is light years into the future and yet, haunted by the past. Her words of passion and deeper understandings come straight from some event horizon at the center of her soul. She is one of the most important new artists of our times and her songs have the power to change darkness to light.

Get all of her albums and go see her perform live. She's like a super nova, bursting in our midst! One listen and you'll know why, today "It's a Good Day to Live!" -Peace-

Absolutely Amazing.......2002-09-08

Jennifer Daniels is easily one of the most promising artists on the music scene today. She has a very unique voice that has definite Celtic influences fused with Southern inflections (she's out of Lookout Mtn, TN). It creates a very distinctive and interesting presence that isn't easily matched. She can flat out wear out a guitar as well. I've had the pleasure of seeing her play Eddie's Attic twice and was speechless after each show. She has this magnetic stage presence that draws you into the music and you become enraptured by it. I've only seen a half dozen other performers that present such a compelling stage performance. If you ever get the chance to see her live, reschedule everything else so that you make sure you catch this show. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Dive & Fly is a must-have album (along with the equally impressive Fists of Flood). This is one of those rare albums in which you have no throw-away tracks and each thought has relevance. The production work adds more polish than Fists, but doesn't take anything away from the overall experience. Her execution is flawless throughout. Songs range from the uplifting spirit of 'Day to Live' to the quiet elegance of the reflective 'December'. I think the album highlights reside in the tracks December, Babylon, and He Dances. Strangely enough I think her most compelling track to date isn't even a full thought. It's the minute and a half clip that closes 'He Dances'. The pianos sweep in to create this slightly dark, foreboding atmosphere as Jennifer's extremely poignant voice seems to float over the keys repeating, "I'll be free if you try your wildest dreams on me." It strikes its cord with its subtlety and understated nature. In our wildest dreams, we can't hope to find an artist with more natural talent than Mrs. Daniels. There can only be great things to come from her future efforts and I sit dizzy with anticipation awaiting these.

A Must!.......2002-02-10

I went to college with Jennifer Daniels and used to love to sit and listen to her sing in the dorm or down at the cafe in Chattanooga where she sometimes played on weekends. Now I'm so excited to be able to listen to her again! I've heard her compared to Joni Mitchell and I think that there is truth there. She also reminds me somewhat of Dar Williams. Anyhow, she's a beautiful person and a beautifully talented singer. I would highly recommend this album.

Holly goes soft.......2005-02-26

This album is nothing like the vintage Holly Golightly blues rock albums. It closer to nina simone and at times old time country music. If you are new to her music and looking to try something out, I recommend 'Down Ginas at 3' or 'Painted On'. That said, I love this album: it's different and Holly has a incredible and unique voice.

After releasing seven successful AIDS benefit compilations that focus on genres from dance to indie-rock to country, in 1996 the Red Hot Organization put out its first hip-hop record, America Is Dying Slowly (note the acronym). But with African Americans accounting for 60 percent of U.S. AIDS cases, and AIDS now the No. 1 cause of death for Americans 25 to 44, you'd think an album like this would have been produced sooner. Apparently, though, it took the AIDS-related death of rapper Eazy-E the year before to awaken the hip-hop community to the problem. Unlike past non-rap Red Hot projects, which were more about raising funds than increasing awareness, the conversational nature of rap allows it to address the issues directly without sounding awkward or preachy. While making us dance and laugh, Domino tells us to "Sport That Raincoat" and Biz Markie, Chubb Rock, and Prince Paul warn, "No Rubber, No Backstage Pass." But the messages sent are not always on the mark: there are bits of the usual conspiracy theories (Mobb Deep) and entirely too much finger-pointing at the "nasty hoes" (Sadat X, Fat Joe, and Diamond D.) and "no-good hoes" (Spice 1, Celly Cel, and Ant Banks). But the compilation also delivers sensitivity and subtlety from some unlikely places. Wu-Tang Clan's title track, for instance, limps along a simple two-chord piano loop that makes for some of the most melancholic hip-hop ever created. Adding to the various viewpoints offered here, Eightball and MJG offer "Listen to Me Now," a rap from the virus's perspective. It all seems appropriate; AIDS, after all, has long been the most ruthless and indiscriminate gangsta in town. --Roni Sarig

The Message Gets Across For The Most Part (Rating: 7 out of 10- -3.5 stars).......2007-03-08

Funny I received this at a safe sex convention a while ago out in Los Angeles. This album is featuring rappers that are supposed to promote safe sex and stay away from drugs. In some ways it does. Some of the songs really get down to the point like the Chubb Rock & Biz Markie song "No Rubber No Backstage Pass" and the song "Check Ya Self" with Ant Banks, Spice 1, and others. So the message in many of the songs are right in your face, in a case to protect yourself from AIDS, which I'm sure you know what that is (if you don't you need to look it up ASAP). Some of the songs are real hard to catch on like the Organized Konfusion song "Decisions" and "Lately I've Been Thinking" with Common and Sean Lett.

A lot of these songs really have nothing to do with the concept of this album, like Coolio's "I Breaks 'Em Off" and Mobb Deep's "Street Life", causing a lot of this album to fall under skip material.

This CD is part of the "Red Hot AIDS Benefit Series". I'm assuming the money that came from the sales of this album went to AIDS perceedings to help eliminate it. I bought this for $2.00 because of the names I saw that were on it and thought it would be nice. Most of this album teaches a lesson, while the rest is just filler. But you can buy this as low as a penny, so it's something you want to check out.

Favorite Tracks: No Rubber No Backstage Pass, The Yearn, America, Blood, Check Ya Self, Lately I've Been Thinking, Decisions, Sport That Raincoat, Stay Away From The Nasty H***

Peace Everyone!!!

BUY IT.......2006-02-23

This CD is definitly worth the $1.00 it cost. most songs cost that nowadays, & this has plenty of jams.

Good message and album.......2000-10-02

The only reason I give this album a four is because it has some great tracks that it seems no one has ever heard about. Personally I could do without the Wu-Tang and gansta stuff...but the tracks by Buckwild/OC, Oranized Konfusion, and Common are increible unknown tracks that everone has to check out. Plus the CD is for a good cauze. Peace, SV

Got A Free Flowin' Theme 'Bout It...........2000-06-14

Da track wit' Pete Rock + Lost Boyz is da illest track on this CD, 'The Yearn'. Da Wu-Tang represent on this CD. I gotta say this is a dope CD but it lackz some serious gangsta. It needed Tupac on it or someone like dat. Definate jammin' CD.
