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

4 out of 5 stars for earth below/ live.......2006-11-10

robin trower for earth below. its a good, if not above average robin trower recording. a very even effort building upon the foundation laid on twice removed from yesterday and adding new guitar textures to a good blues rock sound all in all a very good record!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! robin trower live! this is the one that put robin in heavy rotation on the a.o.r. f.m. radio. a great quick shot of robins live set up until the mid 70's. i wish they could find complete concerts from this era of robins career because he was on fire during this time.

5 out of 5 stars Two Great Trower Albums At One Low Price.......2006-08-01

FOR EARTH BELOW/LIVE is a single-disc compilation of two great Robin Trower albums from the 70s. LIVE is one of the best live albums ever released, and FOR EARTH BELOW was a great follow-up to the exceptional BRIDGE OF SIGHS. Any serious fan of blues-based rock & roll should own this one.

5 out of 5 stars Two Of Trower's Best.......2006-07-10

Any rock fan knows that "Bridge Of Sighs" is one of the best rock albums of all time.
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.

4 out of 5 stars Great Artist, Poor CD Quality.......2006-02-25

Robin Trower deserves 10 stars. Problem is, this CD sounds like it was recorded to cassette first and then burned on a CD later. Very "muffled" sound and needs to be turned up higher to get the same output as other CDs in my collection.

5 out of 5 stars Guitar never sounded better.......2006-02-10

The critical album on this release is "Live." Anyone curious to hear how good an electric guitar can possibly sound should purchase this CD. Trower deals in both overdriven and clean sounds with his Fender Strat, and his use of effects like the wah-wah pedal and the Uni-Vibe, while sometimes drawing unfair and shallow comparisons to Hendrix, is unparallelled in grace and style.

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!

      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

      5 out of 5 stars A Must Buy!.......2007-07-02

      I first heard Krishna Das on a You Tube video. Luckily someone had left a message as to who was singing. Krishna Das was a disciple of Indian holy man Neem Karoli Baba in the early 70's. He brought back to America a love of Hindu devotional songs, or kirtans. The music on this two CD set should be in everyone's collection. Krishnas Das sings in a lower register with some backing by a chorus of mostly female voices. Many of the songs repeat the lyrics over and over, which gives them the feeling of chanting a mantra. Hanuman Chaleesa on the first CD is worth the price of admission alone. Run out and get this music.

      5 out of 5 stars Hindoo Hootenanny!.......2006-02-05

      I bought this recording years ago as a result of a positive review in the New York Times. But that was a very busy period in my life and I only listened to it once or twice and didn't really pay much attention. But yesterday I found this among a mountain of unsorted CDs and put it on. I love this whole 2-CD album! There's something very infectious and uplifting about it. Analyzing it, the melodies are not all that different from the folk music of the 50s and early 60s, but the words are in Sanskrit (I assume) and the musical instruments are Southeast Asian. The result is a good-spirited concert reminiscent of the old hootenannies. This is Peace and Love time. Or Be-In/Love-In time. I've been playing this 2-CD album solidly for the past two days. It has put me in a good mood. The lyrics are translated in the accompanying booklet, but the type is so small that I find it difficult to read. But no matter, these are religious songs, sung prayers and hymns of praise.

      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?

      4 out of 5 stars Ramine of all times.......2005-08-11

      This CD is definitely a stress buster. One feels in control after listening to his CD's and feel they can fight the world. It induces self-satisfaction, contentment and happiness.

      5 out of 5 stars The best of Krishna.......2004-02-10

      All of Krishna Das' music should be standard equipment on any new vehicle in this day and age, with over population and crazy drivers, air bags being just underneath that. For if these mantras were playing in your stereo there may be no need for the later.
      In all seriousness, Krishna Das will bring your spirit to a new level and erase your stress. This coming from someone who hadn't spent much time in the spiritual realm...until now! Get any of his CD's and he may unlock a part of you, you never knew existed.

      5 out of 5 stars KD's Best Work Yet.......2003-12-24

      I have been a devotional singer for many years and have most everything that is available. I have all of KD's other releases and "Live on Earth" is his best work yet and I don't normally like live performances. With the exception of a few live "mistakes" that would normally be edit out, you wouldn't know this was a live CD.

      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.

      4 out of 5 stars stunning studio album in creamy stereo.......2004-08-05

      This studio album of Weill and Gershwin's LADY IN THE DARK features the lovely Rise Stevens making the role of Liza Elliott her own, with Adolph Green in the role that made Danny Kaye a star in the original production.

      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.

      5 out of 5 stars STELLAR STAR!.......2003-01-03

      MISS STEVENS shinesas Liza Eliot in this perfect recording of "Lady in the Dark". [For the first time - with repect to the other artists - the lyrics are pristine!] THE recording? IF you own a 'surround system' - this one IS flawless - just a perfect balance of voice and instrument. [A great restoration job - if only they could do the same to the Lawrence version....]

      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".

      4 out of 5 stars There IS a more complete recording. . ........2000-12-06

      This recording is terrific, but for a more complete recording with much better quality, look for the Original Cast Recording from the Royal National Theatre Production. It's got all the bridging music which is phenomenal.

      5 out of 5 stars Great Fun.......1999-04-15

      Until the definitive full version of the score comes out--with all the bridging material and orchestral interludes--this is probably the most complete of one of the greatest and most charming classic Broadway scores (and probably Ira Gershwin's masterpiece). Rise Stevens was born to play the part, and though at times she gets a bit excessive (especially in the dialogue) her voice is beautiful and confident (a high point is her counterpointing the chorus during "The Best Years of His Life"), and iat times really soars, as in "This is new." Adolph Green is hilarious--it's a great tragedy he never got to play this role on Broadway.

      4 out of 5 stars A fun, if abbreviated, recording.......1999-04-02

      A nifty performance of one of Broadway's classic scores. The biggest problem is that just about everything is slightly abridged (mostly verses, connecting material, dialogue underscoring and choral repeats--although if I'm reading the vocal score right, most of this would still be interesting to listen to); still, a reasonably good taste of the whole thing. The liner notes also don't really give a story synopsis, so if you aren't familiar with the plot, seek out a summary so you aren't completely confused by what is going on. Rise Stevens' acting is pretty mannered, and she goes over the top vocally every now and then; she seems to be shouting, not singing at the end of "Jenny." Adolph Green is hysterically funny and acquits himself supremely well in "Tchaikovsky." How you'll enjoy the appendix of Danny Kaye's recordings depends on how much you like Danny Kaye--enough said.

      What a crowning achievement to bring "Reel Chill:Cinematic Chillout Album", released by Silva America and featuring The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus ~ conductors are Mark Ayres, Paul Bateman, Rick Clark, James Fitzpatrick, Nic Raine and David Temple director of the chorus ~ one can only expect the highest quality of performances and quench the thirst of all "film-score-buffs".

      Sit back and unleash the first disc with composers ~ Albinoni, Craig Armstrong, John Barry, Vladimir Cosma, Enya & Nicky Ryan, Handel, Francis Lai, Ennio Morricone, Sean O'Riorda, Nino Rota, Ryvichi Sakamoto and Vangelis ~ taking each film score cue "BILITIS", "CHARIOTS OF FIRE", "CINEMA PARADISO", "DIVA", "GALLIPOLI", "THE LORD OF THE RINGS:THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING", "BARRY LYNDON", "MERRY CHRISTMAS MR. 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. ARTIFICAL INTELLIGENCE", "DEATH IN VENICE", "DEER HUNTER", "GLADIATOR", "HANNIBAL", "THE LORD OF THE RINGS:RETURN OF THE KING", "ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE", "OUT OF AFRICA", "PATRIOT GAMES", "THE PIANO", "PLATOON", "RAGING BULL", "SOMEWHERE IN TIME" and "YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE" ~ our composers with passion and skill for exploring human emotions, coupled with a unique gift for striking exotic orchestral colors, make this with all it's splendor unforgettable ~ themes that ring with familiarity as each film comes to mind through music.

      Silva America gives the collector a treasure of thirty film cues that any "film-score-buff" would die for ~ in the past James Fitzpatrick (producer), Reynold da Silva (executive producer), mastered by Rick Clark and David Stoner (release co-ordinator) have given us compilation with such expertise and this one is no exception ~ keep up the outstanding limited editions and deluxe package releases, with your signature tidbits for all film music fans that's in all of us...gotta love it!

      Aaron's vocals sounded just like he was singing at a close family members funeral. He felt everything! My husband and I are using this track for our funerals, along with the track right after.

      5 out of 5 stars One of the best live albums...........2006-07-21

      The Nevilles defy description... they move from r&b to funk to
      reggaeto rock without missing a beat....for fans, this is a must have, as it captures their live performances extremely well.....If you have a chance, go see them live....

      5 out of 5 stars A live album that rocks.......2001-06-30

      This is an excellent live album from 1994 that showcases each of the brothers' talents. As well as the other band members. A lot of the songs are over 5 and 6 minutes long which leaves some room for some great jamming. This album is a must for any fan, it will make you wish that you could see them live, if you haven't already. "Her African Eyes" is a great instrumental by Charles which showcases his sax playing....really wonderful.

      5 out of 5 stars Grooves Hard.......1999-12-06

      I'm a fan of funk and R&B, and this CD is one of my favorites. The drums and percussion are especially inspiring, and there is a nice mix of slow and fast tunes, both as straight up and ballads.

      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

      5 out of 5 stars A Must Buy!.......2007-07-02

      I first heard Krishna Das on a You Tube video. Luckily someone had left a message as to who was singing. Krishna Das was a disciple of Indian holy man Neem Karoli Baba in the early 70's. He brought back to America a love of Hindu devotional songs, or kirtans. The music on this two CD set should be in everyone's collection. Krishnas Das sings in a lower register with some backing by a chorus of mostly female voices. Many of the songs repeat the lyrics over and over, which gives them the feeling of chanting a mantra. Hanuman Chaleesa on the first CD is worth the price of admission alone. Run out and get this music.

      5 out of 5 stars Hindoo Hootenanny!.......2006-02-05

      I bought this recording years ago as a result of a positive review in the New York Times. But that was a very busy period in my life and I only listened to it once or twice and didn't really pay much attention. But yesterday I found this among a mountain of unsorted CDs and put it on. I love this whole 2-CD album! There's something very infectious and uplifting about it. Analyzing it, the melodies are not all that different from the folk music of the 50s and early 60s, but the words are in Sanskrit (I assume) and the musical instruments are Southeast Asian. The result is a good-spirited concert reminiscent of the old hootenannies. This is Peace and Love time. Or Be-In/Love-In time. I've been playing this 2-CD album solidly for the past two days. It has put me in a good mood. The lyrics are translated in the accompanying booklet, but the type is so small that I find it difficult to read. But no matter, these are religious songs, sung prayers and hymns of praise.

      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?

      4 out of 5 stars Ramine of all times.......2005-08-11

      This CD is definitely a stress buster. One feels in control after listening to his CD's and feel they can fight the world. It induces self-satisfaction, contentment and happiness.

      5 out of 5 stars The best of Krishna.......2004-02-10

      All of Krishna Das' music should be standard equipment on any new vehicle in this day and age, with over population and crazy drivers, air bags being just underneath that. For if these mantras were playing in your stereo there may be no need for the later.
      In all seriousness, Krishna Das will bring your spirit to a new level and erase your stress. This coming from someone who hadn't spent much time in the spiritual realm...until now! Get any of his CD's and he may unlock a part of you, you never knew existed.

      5 out of 5 stars KD's Best Work Yet.......2003-12-24

      I have been a devotional singer for many years and have most everything that is available. I have all of KD's other releases and "Live on Earth" is his best work yet and I don't normally like live performances. With the exception of a few live "mistakes" that would normally be edit out, you wouldn't know this was a live CD.

      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.

      5 out of 5 stars A key period in the life of a great performer.......2003-08-26

      There was a burst of time when Jerry Lee was just getting out of the dog house after the scandalization of his marriage to Myra Gale. Captured on this CD are two performances, one in Birmingham and one in Houston, where you get the full Jerry Lee Lewis experience, not just the music tracks, but the killer addressing his audience, philosophizing, talking about his links with the people who first did the music, and then he and the Memphis beats performing.
      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!

      5 out of 5 stars IT IS,IT IS, ...almost.......2002-07-23

      This live set came on the heels of THE GREATEST live show,JLL's Live at the STARCLUB several months earlier. This set DOES ROCKNROLL ,make no mistake!! Hi HEEL SNEAKERS is the show stopper for my money,the entire set moves nicely along,Jerry gives credit to all those he covers and everytime I hear a version of Charlie Rich's Who Will the Next Fool BE,I think of Jerry's intro to it from this set,they don;t make em like this anymore,in fact,few ever have.You gotta have this one in your collection,JLL fan.or not.

      If you are tired of all the so called pop, rap, et.al. listen to this, this is real Rock at its best. If you can sit still listening to this, you are dead.

      5 out of 5 stars I saw this show live !.......1999-04-24

      I saw this show live at the Whiteland Barn in Whiteland Indiana on a Sunday night sometime in 1961or62.The "Barn" was the hottest thing going at the time. Because Indiana was a "dry" state on Sundays and we always stocked up the night befor for the dance I met for the first time,Jerry Lee,and a girl he introduced as his sister;Sherry Lee.we drank whisky for awhile talked and laughted around.Then it was show time.It was one of the best concerts that I have ever seen. The play list contains some of the best tunes of the period,the energy of jerry lee that night was pure insanity.If you want to hear the killer on top of his game,buy this CD and turn in up real loud.

      4 out of 5 stars BGO.... Better Get Organized...........2005-11-10

      This release is a strange one. Where the other BGO 2 fers for Pat have been on single discs, this is a double set (at least mine was...) and Live From Earth suffers from botched track indexes. Case in point: When you put the disc in your player, it only lists 8 tracks. The liner notes show the 10 tracks on the album. What's happened is that tracks 3, 4, and 5 are all crammed together on one track. What gives here guys? Especially when I can still go out and buy the original version with no mixups and it sounds just about the same.
      Wide Awake in Dreamland seems to be O.K. and doesn't suffer from any edit version inclusion nightmares and whatnot.
      A definite headscratcher if ya ask me...

      Time to beef up quality control there guys...
