A must for any Primary Elementary Teacher and Substitute. The songs are lively and kids love them. I use them substituting as a reward for being on task and taking a break.

My 2 year old loves this CD. We listen to it at home and in the car. She loves to dance to Listen and Move. We like that it teaches the months of the year. Number Rock and The Freeze are great too!

5 out of 5 stars Kids want to play OVER AND OVER AND OVER.......2004-01-11

Preschool children absolutely love

*Listen and move - They tiptoe, run, hop, gallap and laugh their way to some energy release!

* The Number rock - In a circle joining hands and yelling and screaming the numbers. Helps to count and recgonize sequencing. Then we all fall to the ground!

*The Freeze - they just want to keep freezing (We like to freeze in a really goofy position)

*The World is a Rainbow - We have rainbow streamers that children do things with. We ask each child to wave their streamer in a unique way to this song and then everyone copies.

One of the many oddities of Bob Dylan's long and unruly career has been the rather cursory recording treatment given his stint as ringleader of the Rolling Thunder Revue. It's a shortcoming that's rectified with the release of Live 1975. Prior to the appearance of this two-disc collection, Rolling Thunder's eclectic road show was chronicled only in the infrequently screened, Dylan-directed Renaldo & Clara film and the bafflingly brief and one-note 1976 live set, Hard Rain. In contrast to its predecessor, this set, culled from four appearances made in November and December of '75, captures the breadth and subtleties of Dylan's Rolling Thunder performances. "Tonight I'll Be Staying Here with You," formerly a coda from Nashville Skyline, is given a rather incongruous bite here, while "It Ain't Me, Babe" is colored brightly by multi-instrumentalist David Mansfield along with erstwhile David Bowie guitarist Mick Ronson, the sparkplug of the gratifyingly ragtag group that coalesced on short notice. Solo acoustic performances weave through caterwauling full-band treatments of songs old ("The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll) and new ("Hurricane" and four other selections from Desire, which wouldn't hit the racks until early '76). While the contributions of a number of caravan cohorts and guests are left out, Joan Baez shares the spotlight with Dylan on four numbers, most notably on the rarity "Mama, You Been on My Mind" and the traditional "The Water Is Wide." But despite its cavalcade trappings, it was Dylan's show, and this collection demonstrates finally just how close to his '60s peak the '70s Dylan was. --Steven Stolder

5 out of 5 stars Dylan is king!.......2007-03-09

These discs have been in my cd player since I purchased them a month ago. Dylan's painted face allows him to be more diverse. It has songs that feature just Dylan and his guitar and others with his stellar band. For any Dylan fan interested in the bootleg series, this is a great starting point. I have several others in teh bootleg series, but few are as fun as this one. He just rocks!

3 out of 5 stars perhaps lower expectations are in order.......2007-02-15

Some of you are not going to like this review, but buyers will need some candor here. Dylan really is great, and his often great work in the 1970s is generally underappreciated. But this live set is not the place to learn to love Dylan. If you're curious about this title, my recommendation is go pick up his studio recordings of the mid- to late-1970s, beginning with the remastered titles. These are lovely, sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes groovy, and often superb. If you already have these, then, if you choose to get this title, you might set your expectations a little lower.

The main problem with Live 1975, as a reviewer below notes, is the singing--or, as one might better say, the bellowing. Dylan has one of rock's great voices and in his studio recordings, including his studio recordings of the 1970s, he sings with astounding emotional authority (where does he get that, one wonders--how does anyone get that?!). In these Live 1975 tracks, however, Dylan is out of voice, bellowing either to be heard or else to "voluminate" in lieu of giving a more emotionally nuanced vocal performance. This is not an uncommon failing of concert recordings, but the present case is quite pronounced and I agree with the reviewer below that it seriously taints the enjoyment of these disks.

I may as well go on to note that the sound of the band is quite dense here. I think it's not a performance problem or an engineering problem, but one of arrangement: there are too many instruments crowding the middle range, so it sounds a bit like an undifferentiated wall of sound. Again, rather characteristic of the 1970s live sound, but rarely the case with Dylan's studio recordings.

In short, if you're curious about Dylan in the 1970s, there are better places to look. My favorite of the Live albums is the 1964 one.

5 out of 5 stars This album rocks!.......2007-01-18

Without a doubt one of Dylans best recordings. I was blown away hearing this for the first time, and the twentieth for that matter. This album was just recently released and is a must have for any Dylan fan. If you're looking for a gift for a Dylan fan this is it. Most fans have the popular titles, Blood on the Tracks, Route 66 Revisited, etc. but there's a good chance they don't have this title yet. Guaranteed not to disappoint.

5 out of 5 stars Another classic from the Bootleg Series with some essential takes.......2007-01-12

The Rolling Thunder Review live collection is a close second to Live 1966 as the most essential live Dylan album ever released. Throughout these recordings, a revitalized and energetic Dylan hollers out his new and old classics to a rambunctious crowd of random people (the show traveled like a circus and had little to no publicity) and reinvents many of his old songs along the way.

This series of shows, like many of Dylan's great post-'65 concerts, features a combination of hard-rocking band numbers and solo acoustic songs. He's got a great band, too, with several guitarists, a tight rhythm section, a violin, and even a pedal steel guitar. With this rocking ensemble he reworks several classics into hard rocking barnstormers. "It Ain't Me Babe" and "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall" groove at quick paces and sound almost unrecognizable from their folky original versions. "It Takes a Lot to Laugh" and "Just Like A Woman" are transformed from their delicate studio incarnations to anthemic rockers. Likewise, Dylan's new material (soon to be recorded in the studio as Desire) rocks hardest of all. The versions of "Hurricane" and "Isis" recorded here put the studio versions to shame, performed with fire and energy here that makes these versions the essential recordings.

Some of the album's best moments are the acoustic tunes. The recent hits "Tangled Up In Blue" and "Simple Twist of Fate" sound great, and duets with Joan Baez like "The Water is Wide" channel Dylan's folk past while at the same time remaining firmly rooted in where he was at that moment.

The Rolling Thunder Revue presents Dylan in one of his most daring and original endeavors, and the excellent liner notes tell the story quite well. This collection contains a great selection of classics as well as some great songs that are under-represented in Dylan's live catalog ("The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carrol"). It's a wild ride and a rewarding listen that I heartily recommend.

5 out of 5 stars I LOVE THIS!!!!.......2006-12-06

I absolutely love this double album. Growing up I owned a bootleg of the rolling thunder revue. Unfortunatly it got lost, however this cd did make up for it. The re-working of "it ain't me babe" is great, and the Joan Baez duo of "mama you've been on my mind" is really good with the country/rocking feel. My one slight problem with this is that "NEVER LET ME GO" was left off...that is not cool

This is great children's CD. I use it daily in my preschool classroom. The songs are catchy and educational.I particulary like "Hand Jive". This is a song where children listen to clapping beats and repeat back the same beat. Great fun! I also like "The Days of the Week" songs in English and Spanish. This is a great way to help children learn about another language in an easy,fun way. I would recommend this CD to anyone who works with children.It is a great CD for parents to keep in the car for those long car rides.

5 out of 5 stars Classic Rock for the Preschool Plus!.......2007-01-08

Ok, I admit it; I'm an old dude, but Greg & Steve rock! They've been around about as long as me (they first showed up with their music in the 1970's), but all of their songs have aged VERY well.

I am now a preschool special ed teacher, and I have every volume of what they have available. Each volume is great in its own way, with some really fantastic stuff mixed with a few that just don't work for me. But that is OK: each CD is worth the price of even one of their best songs. Luckily they always have several that shine.

Wonderful song writing, fun remakes of classics, great guitars, keyboards and drums for us old rock'n'roller's turned yuppie taking care of the little ones. Buy them all, you will find something you love on every "album" (OK, they were albums before they became CD's), and so will all the kids from birth to, well, 40-something, like me.

My 3-year old son was introducted to this cd at day care, and he LOVES it! We purchased the CD and have been listening to it everyday since we bought it 6 months ago. His favorites - Popcorn, The World is a Rainbow. It's great to see him singing and dancing to the cheery music. This volume is his favorite!

I am a teacher at my local Head Start program, and my students love Greg & Steve. We usually listen, dance, and sing to a song from this cd at least once a week. The ABC rock is an excellent active learning tool to teach language arts skills. We use Vol 2 much more, however!

3 out of 5 stars A great deception.......2007-02-18

What the hell is going on in the old medley...It start great with "Dance on a volcano" it is amazing in the "Firth of Fifth" extract and it finish with..."Follow you follow me and That's all" which totally ruins the whole medley. A real deception here. Next you have the best of Invisible touch (Domino), the best of We can't dance (Driving the last spike and Fading light) and the best of the "Genesis" album, which is Home by the sea-Seond home by the sea. Conclusion, not enought space for old stuff, and the only place it had is ruined by extracts of some songs that should have been on "The shorts"

5 out of 5 stars A last glimpse into the greatness of Genesis.......2005-04-15

It was all downhill for the band after this album. After the tour during which it was recorded, Phil Collins would leave the band, they would record the infamous "Calling All Stations" and not too long after that, they split for good. But the "Longs" installment of this 2-volume set of live material was a glimpse into the greatness of Genesis.

The premise is pretty basic: six songs exceeding the 6-minute mark (in fact, five of them go over the 10-minute mark), showing off some of the band's most ellaborate work, to balance off volume one, which focused more on the singles and short songs. Starting off the album, standing tall at almost 20 minutes of duration, is a medley of reaaaaaaaly old Genesis, where 1975's "Dance on a Volcano", 1974's "Lamb Lies Down on Broadway", 1971's "Musical Box" and 1973's "Firth of Fifth" and "I Know What I Like" all are brought back to life, if at least for minutes at a time each... reviving the spirit of one of the world's best progressive rock bands ever.

Following the opening track come two tracks from their "We Can Dance" production, along with the "Domino" bundle (from their "Invisible Touch" album) and the "Home By the Sea" bundle (from their self-titled 1983 album). Taking it all home is their classic Drum Duet, featuring Phil alongside Chester Thompson, delivering a massive drum discharge that will electrify you.

If you ask me, this last glimpse at their great work is a good as it gets... I am thankful I had an opportunity of catching them during this tour, back in Knebworth, in 1992. They don't do them like this any more. ;)

4 out of 5 stars The Trio Hasn't Morphed Completely into a Pop Band.......2004-11-04

When it comes to the rock band, Genesis - I think this band is often unfarily criticized for going "commercial". Yes, the band did move into more of a pop-music direction in the 1980s, but I think they added a breath of fresh air to the pop music and paritcularly 80s landscape. As a result, Genesis picked up a lot of new fans - many of whom probably went on to appreciate many of their earlier works. The album, "The Way We Walk - Volume 2: The Longs" presents a collection of 6 "longer" live tracks of over 6 minutes long.

When I look at Genesis as band, I see four distinct phases the band has gone through. Phase 1 is the Peter Gabriel Era. This spans from 1969 ("From Genesis to Revelation") to 1974 ("The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway"). It was during Phase 1 that Peter Gabriel was the lead vocalist and Genesis could easily be categorized as a progressive Rock band. Phase 2 is the Early Phil Collins Era spanning from 1976 ("A Trick of the Tail") to 1982 ("Three Sides Live"). In this era, Phil Collins took over as lead singer. The band was still very much a progressive rock band, but as the progressive rock landscape would change - so would Genesis. This might indirectly have led to Phase 3 which is the Late Phil Collins Era from 1983 ("Genesis") to 1993 ("The Way We Walk Volume 2: The Longs"). This is the commercial/pop era that I referred to earlier. At this point, there would be a lot less progressive rock flavor to Genesis' music. The fourth phase, Phase 4 is the Ray Wilson Era. This was when Ray Wilson took over as lead vocalist for Phil Collins. There would only be one album in this era - 1997's "Calling All Stations" and it seemed like Genesis tried to recapture some of their progressive rock roots - but 90s style. "Calling All Stations" would do poor commercially and Ray Wilson would take the fall and be asked to leave the band.

In Phase 3, Genesis would grow more and more successful commercially with each album release. Some of this probably would do to the fact that Phil Collins' solo career was also taking off. The last studio album that Phil Collins would do with Genesis was "We Can't Dance". It was a huge commercial success and resulted in a hugely successful World Tour. Naturally, the band decided to capitalize on the success of that World Tour by releasing a live album and video. Genesis had done live albums before ("Three Sides Live", "Seconds Out", "Genesis Live"). On each live album, the focus of the live material would on the studio releases that had not been done live up until that point. Genesis had not done a live release for Phase 3, thus "The Way We Walk" would have a focus on this material. For this live release, Genesis would employ a unique formula - they would release the material in a two volume set called "The Way We Walk". Volume 1 would focus on the shorter (normal) length songs. Volume 2 would focus on Genesis' trademark longer songs. This review focuses on Volume 2.

Normally when there is a live release, I prefer the album to be a live recording from a single concert performance. I prefer it to be delivered in the order in which the songs were actually delivered. By having things from a single night and in order - I feel there is continuity and the magic of the concert is captured perfectly. Since Genesis took this unique approach to the way they were presenting this live material, this was going to be very hard to do. However, the material was strong enough to overcome this. Yes, I still would have preferred a two volume CD that contained a night from the 1992 "We Can't Dance" Tour in its entirety, but I do like the unique two volume approach. I find it very convienient to listen to either the "short" songs or "long" songs (depending on my mood)".

Four of the six songs come from Phase 3. The first song is a 19+ minute medley of songs from Phases 1 and 2 called "Old Medley". A unique thing about "Old Medley" is that it features a medley within a medley - namely "I Know What I Like" also has a mini medley of "That's All", "Illegal Alien", and "Follow You Follow Me". This medley will help the new Genesis fan appreciate the older material. The band does a terrific job delivering emotional performances of the newer classics - "Domino" (from "Invisible Touch") and "Driving the Last Spike" (from "We Can't Dance"). There is a terrific version of "Home By the Sea" which includes "Second Home By the Sea". (I always prefer listening to "Home By the Sea" and Second Home By the Sea" together - so this works). "Fading Lights", a song from "We Can't Dance" is also included. I think this isn't the strongest Genesis tune, but the band does a nice instrumental which gives the song a boost. Finally there is a terrific "Drum Duet" featuring Phil Collins and Chester Thompson in a double drum "solo" performance. Because of the copyright date listed for "Drum Duet" (1989), I wonder if this was actually recorded on the "We Can't Dance" tour or if this was when it was written?

The liner notes are weak. There are no lyrics and nothing to provide insight into the Tour - or when and where these songs were recorded. The production credits are pretty light as well. There are some decent photos from the Tour included. There may be some "old-time" fans who don't like the newer material by Genesis, but these longer performances still show that Genesis hasn't completely morphed into a pop band. These performances will appeal to the old Genesis fan as well as the newer fan.

4 out of 5 stars This Album.......2004-06-18

This album is the second best live Genesis album and should be gotten in leu of the albums most of its songs are on, Invisible Touch, Genesis, We Cant Dance. Clearly The Longs captures the best material from that whole period, the creative Prog Rockers and not the pop garbage. The only drawback is the weak Old Medley, the songs that the band touch on from the Gabrial era are much better handled by Gabrial singing then Phil but the rest of the albums great especially the drum duet which closes the album.

5 out of 5 stars Loved it!.......2004-05-18

This is a very good live material released by Genesis, mixing their old school prog rock with their long compositions of the pop era albums. The result?? AWESOME SHOW!! The first track are a medley ("Old Medley") with their old songs, like the incredible "Dance on the Volcano", the wonderful "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway", the beautiful and powerful "The Musical Box", the excelent "Firth Of Fith", the great "I Know What I Like(In Your Wardrobe)", all of them well executed and proving that Genesis didn't forgot their past; the medley ends up with a little bit of the great pop tunes like the good and catchy "That's All" and the touching "Follow You Follow Me". Very exciting first track, excelent set of songs!! Then we have one of their last long compositions, the awesome "Driving the Last Spike", from their last album with Phil Collins. But wait, we still have the outstanding "Domino", one of their best long compositions of the pop era! Once again they turn into their last work with Collins, with the beautiful "Fading Lights"! To finish the night in great style, the awesome and exciting tunes "Home By The Sea" and "Second Home By The Sea". In the end, we still have an amazing "Drum Duet" with Phil Collins to end the night! A little advice: buy this album! In my opinion, is one of the very best live shows that Genesis released, along with Seconds Out!

4 out of 5 stars Have to love Greg and Steve.......2006-01-18

I'm a substitute teacher and I used "the shapes" song to review shapes with a kindergarten class. The kids loved standing up and sitting down when their shape was called. They asked me to do again and again.

Also "the disco limbo" is good to do around the room on a rainy day. Kids had a blast!

I gave it 4 stars because there aren't many other songs on this Cd that involve movement like the first two volumes.

5 out of 5 stars Greg & Steve We All Live Together Volume 3.......2000-06-14

Just like all of the other Greg & Steve albums, this one is outstanding. "Piggy Bank" was a favorite of my first grade class. Greg & Steve provide wonderful, fun music for children of all ages.

    The Canadian pianist Marc-André Hamelin is quickly becoming a favorite with piano connoisseurs, particularly in late Romantic music. In this live recital, Hamelin concentrates mainly on unusual arrangements: a Beethoven movement as recomposed by Alkan, a Balakirev reduction of a Chopin concertos movement for solo piano, Busoni's Sonatina which uses themes from Bizet's Carmen. You have to be pretty far involved in the late Romantic ethos to appreciate these obscure tidbits, but if you are, Hamelin's virtuosic and colorful performances will prove extremely attractive. The live performance atmosphere comes across vividly in this recording, as does Hamelin's tone. --Leslie Gerber

    2 out of 5 stars Dissapointing!.......2007-07-12

    I have listened this recital, because of praises which written in this page. Very dissapointing. Actually Hamelin will stand among secondary rank in great pianists ad infinitum. He always shows that he "can play" this instrument. But nothing exciting or meditative or lyric...Just pure, superficial technic. My only favorite Hameline is the third part of the second concerto of Shostakovich. That was not bad. I think he is good as concert performer for one enjoyable night. But I can't believe that he can play Bach or late Beethoven or Brahms, adequately. He can only plays his eccentricities. Ofcourse one should also praise him for his "Alkan or Busoni effort"
    You may want to hear just for Alkan's interesting transcription.

    5 out of 5 stars Marc-Andre Hamelin Hyperion CD.......2007-04-10

    This is a wonderful CD full of out of the way pieces most of us do not know exsist. I loved the Chopin/Balakirev transcription of the Piano Concerto #1. Also try two other Hyperion CD's of Nikoli Kapustin, One played by Hamelin and the other by Steve Osborne. This is jazz in a classical format and it will wow your shirt off.

    5 out of 5 stars This is it.......2007-02-26

    Hamelin is probably one of the greatest pianists ever, and his courage in championing such unusual and technically demanding material as Godowsky's Études turns him into one of the most interesting musicians today. As for this particular recording, it's needless to say that his playing is superb, as usual, and his technique is unassailable and immaculate. His choice of material is bold, to say the least. He starts off with a wonderful reading of Beethoven's third piano concerto and then goes on to overwhelm the listener with effortless and sublime renditions of works by Chopin, Medtner, Busoni and - oh my! - Alkan. I never thought I would ever come to like Alkan's works, but Hamelin's rendition of the Études are so effective and engaging that I began to take some interest in it. It's by far the best live recording I've ever heard and it certainly helped me redefine my ideas about what's possible for a human being to do on the piano.

    5 out of 5 stars this recording is very great.......2007-01-29

    This recording was for me entree Marc Andre Hamelin. I think then he must is most amazing of technic since Liszt. No I did ever to hear Liszt, but I am pupil of Kremova, and she tell all pupil word of Mme Ida Nagy "et bene audet" of maestro. Of this recording not only is there all notes (Kremova required us learn Alkan op 76 naught if ever we may dare of playing recital!) but Mr Hamelin his of playing so confident and of "fun" and of warm! This recording is the very great. Did M Hamelin in real there play Alkan Beethoven No 3 cadenza! I would fainted were I present real there Wigmore Hall! Here it is on this recording! I would fainted! Is true.
    I say here so will not so wounding, M Hamelin not is good play our Rachmaninov and Scriabin. So will not so harsh be Rachmaninov and Scriabin of his other recording difficult for artist such as M Hamelin are not the technic but the music sensiblite. M Hamelin a youth.
    So! A great youth artist! Let he perform now youth accord a his greatness!

    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic.......2004-09-18

    Hyperion recorded this CD from a series of live recitals given in June 1994, at Wigmore Hall. It is one of my favorite live albums. Hamelin performs Alkan's transcription of Beethoven's 3rd concerto, the Trois Grandes Etudes Op. 76, as well as Medtner, Busoni and a Balakirev transcription of Chopin.

    Hamelin's performance of Alkan's Beethoven 3rd is a remarkable feat of the recording age. Most pianists would never even touch the work with it's brilliant 6 minute cadenza that echoes the finale of Beethoven's 5th symphony. To perform it live is quite another matter. It is uncertain whether the great Busoni played the work himself in a recital he gave in Berlin in 1906. Hamelin's is the only recording of Alkan's transcription I'm aware of, but it's probably the only one needed.

    Balakirev's transcription of the Romanza of Chopin's first piano concerto is a loyal one. However, this is probably my least favorite track on the album. While pretty and thoughtful, it seems out of place in this energetic collection. Hamelin's interpretation is a bit too clean and cold for my liking. His technique is suitable to play tranquil pieces wonderfully, but here it just doesn't seem to work.

    Alkan's Trois Grandes Etudes op 76. are some of the most technically challenging compositions in the entire piano repertoire. In Hamelin, Alkan has a faithful performer that is able to create the effects of a full-scale orchestra on the piano using a mere five fingers. Not only does Hamelin perform this work live, he does so flawlessly. The first is the 'Fantasie' for left hand alone, the second 'Introduction, Variations and Finale' for right hand alone. The final 'Rondo Toccata' is a dizzying piece, reminiscent of the final movement of Chopin's Funeral Sonata. The 30-minute performance of this work leads one to admire both Hamelin's pianism, as well as his physical endurance!

    The Carmen Fantasy by Busoni is essentially a whirlwind tour of Bizet with the flair of Busoni. Hamelin could have let loose with this piece, but instead decides to let the work speak for itself. The result is a reflective piece that is filled more with the contrast of emotions than excitement. Hamelin's performance is good, but it would also be great to hear this piece played with more energy.

    The final piece on this album is Medtner's Danza festiva No. 3. It's whimsical that brings the album to a joyful close. This time, Hamelin's dynamics are perfect and bring out the color and energy in the piece.

    All in all, 'Live at Wigmore Hall' is a remarkable achievement that is well worth adding to your collection. Hyperion has done remarkably well in putting together this album. The sound quality is crystal clear, and the audience's rapturous applause really adds to the enjoyment.
