Like his jazz counterpart Jai Uttal, Krishna Das is a U.S. native whose life was changed forever by the discovery of the Hindu religion. Yet unlike Uttal, who has explored the realms of world and jazz music and collaboration, Das has focused his energies toward the art of Indian classical chant exclusively. The result is a long career of spreading the love and spirituality of the Hindustani tradition while gleaning a large following that's included the likes of Sting and Madonna. But this isn't the reason to respect Das, rather his investment in using chant to heal, find the grace of God, and purify the soul. Though Das's voice falls somewhat flat on this two-CD album, he's accompanied by a wonderful gaggle of percussionists, whose layered cadences create a tapestry as rich in color and detail as an Indian ragamala itself. The accompanying choir of some 20 chanters is the other highlight, offering a cold salve to Das's harsh, monotonous tone. But after all, the point of chant is to invoke God, not please the ear, and if this is your goal, Live on Earth well satisfies. --Karen K. Hugg

for earth below/ live.......2006-11-10
Two Great Trower Albums At One Low Price.......2006-08-01
Two Of Trower's Best.......2006-07-10
But if you love "Bridge" you must have these 2 albums. "Bridge" is an A+ but these are both A's. "For Earth Below" is an incredible follow up to "Bridge". It keeps the same feel but the song writing is even tighter. "Trower Live" is one of the best live rock records ever made. The feedback ferocity and finesse on "Daydream" is worth the price alone. If you like Trower, these are must have LP's.
Great Artist, Poor CD Quality.......2006-02-25
Guitar never sounded better.......2006-02-10
When Trower unleashes a sustained feedback note (i.e. near the end of "Daydream"), I want it to last thirty minutes. But he's also capable of dramatic bursts and flurries of notes, punctuated by bends and whammy bar workouts ... as Robert Fripp himself noted, Robin Trower has mastered the "bends and wobbles."
During the last solo of "Lady Love," Trower plays a pinch harmonic that is THE sweetest single note I ever heard, anywhere.
Jimmy Dewar lays down a great bass groove throughout - and his voice is quite powerful. He has a rich, soulful vibrato that compliments the music nicely.
Bill Lordan is a good, jazzy drummer, although occasionally his cymbals do clutter the sound, especially on the live album. But let's face it, the reason we are all listening to this is to hear what Robin is gonna play next :)
I could write pages about how great this CD is - do not wait a minute longer. Order it!

In general I don't care for background music, but I think this works very well in that capacity just as mood music. I can't promise that it will affect everyone the way it has affected me, but I've found it very uplifting. How can I not give it five stars?

KD's Best Work Yet.......2003-12-24
LOE has both a perfectly balanced devtional and energetic feel to it which is the sign of a good kirtan/bhajan. Even my Indian devotional singing friends who are usually very picky when it comes to devotional music, all love "Live on Earth". Most all of KD's good tracks from his other releases are on LOE so with this you have his best. If you have only one KD CD, this is the one.

Customer Reviews:
stunning studio album in creamy stereo.......2004-08-05
This sumptuous reissue on the Columbia 'Masterworks Heritage' label presents the recording in creamy stereo, with the orchestra under the baton of Lehman Engel. Rise Stevens is perhaps the best singer to have played Liza on any recording of LADY IN THE DARK. The trained opera singer lets her hair down for the manic "Saga of Jenny", and yields glowing versions of "My Ship" and "One Life to Live". Also featured among the cast are John Reardon and Stephanie Augustine.
My only qualm about the release is the horrid packaging. The disc is enclosed in a cardboard sleeve at the back of a booklet-style slipcase, leaving the CD vulnerable to scratches and dust (I remedied the problem by putting the CD in a separate plastic jewel case and filing it on the shelf next to the empty booklet case). However this should not deter collectors and musical theatre fans from seeking out this lovely recording.
STELLAR STAR!.......2003-01-03
FOR the collector - get all three recordings currently available - the 1997 London version is the most complete, the Gertrude Lawrence? It's more of a Star Vehicle for Miss Lawrence - lots of dialogue - with really only the two "Liza' numbers - "Saga of Jenmny" and "My Ship" intact - but also well worth the journey.
AS A BONUS - Miss Stevens recording contains the Danny Kaye contribution missing from the Gertrude Lawrence recording - plus his versions of "My Ship" and "The Saga of Jenny".
There IS a more complete recording. . ........2000-12-06

LAWRENCE", "MIDNIGHT COWBOY", "THE MISSION", "ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA", "ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST", "ROMEO & JULIET" and "ROMEO + JULIET", with arrangements that soar and then simmer into pure meditation of grandeur ~ classic film music prevails, as orchestration comes to the surface with pure originality ~ one masterpiece after another is long last presented as it should have been, is cause for celebration ~ each cue is a distinctive gift for striking modernism, touching on the transition of the period in this planets history.
Second disc is waiting in the wings are composers ~ Samuel Barber, John Barry, Patrick Cassidy, James Horner, Mahler, Mascagni, Stanley Myers, Thomas Newman, Michael Nyman, Howard Shore, John Williams and Hans Zimmer/Lisa Gerrard ~ take a musical ride with "AMERICAN BEAUTY", "A.I.

the killer live.......2007-06-27
A key period in the life of a great performer.......2003-08-26
That is really the best of what JLL offers, is an ioverall experience not just his music, but his mind and the way he ties to gether RB, western swing, country, gospel, and blues and white rock and roll all together. The other recording in this series advertised on these pages is his great concert at the Star Club in Hamburg where the Beatles first blossomed and where killer was acclaimed.
It is sad there is no recording of what truly was one of the greatest life shows ever, the joint appearance of JLL and Little Richard on a British Rock show as part of the European leg of the tour (I think it was either Top of the Pops or Ready Steady Go) which sent the audience into true riot dimensions.
Anyway, I have been listening to these performances (which used to be out on two different records and cassettes)for about 25 years. I hope to list 25 more!
