John Williams' lovely and moving score for the sixth Star Wars film brings thirty years of collaborating on George Lucas' beyond-popular intergalactic franchise to a close. (Is this really the end of Star Wars? Can't Lucas and Williams work together on a prequel to these prequels? Let us hope so, and that Jar Jar Binks is nowhere near it.) As this music accompanies the most exciting Star Wars film in many a moon, the soundtrack itself is more fun, more evil, more nasty and bumpy. Many of the heroic, anthemic themes woven throughout Episode Three: Revenge of the Sith will necessarily be familiar to any fan of the series, from the "Imperial March" to the main theme. It's remarkable how stirring the latter can be, no matter how many times you've heard it, and even for those who do not have all their money invested in S.W. memorabilia. There is a lot of new music here, and the lush, extensive range of both Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra is on display, most notably in the menacing, percolating "General Grievous" and the rousing "New Hope" end theme. --Mike McGonigal

5 out of 5 stars Star Wars: A Musical Journey (2005) (V).......2007-06-21

product: Star Wars: A Musical Journey (2005) (V), included as bonus disc in Episode III soundtrack.

The bonus dvd with this soundtrack was the reason I purchased. I enjoy film soundtracks, and science fiction, but this dvd was a real highlight for me. I got the soundtrack cd out of the local library. The cd was missing from the case, but I found this wonderful dvd instead that I went out to purchase later.

With optional segments of dialog from Ian McDiarmid, this film is a stunning visual and musical overview of the full epic story of episodes I-VI of Star Wars. For those of us who felt that eps. IV-VI fell short of our expectations, this film presents them well as parts of the whole story. The Musical Journey also stands as a summary of the entire SW opus for someone who is not familiar with the Star Wars characters and plot. Highly recommended.

Options: no subtitles or other options.

4 out of 5 stars Not one of his bests, but very close.......2007-05-21

The Episode III soundtrack is very good. Not great, but very, very good. You can tell that Williams is getting old, but he still manages to weave together a very memorable score.

My favorite tracks are "Battle of the Heroes," "Anakin's Betrayal," Palpatine's teachings, "Anakin vs. Obi-Wan," and the "Immolation Scene."
The others are very good as well, but these are especially nice. "Battle of the Heroes" is Dual of the Fates for Revenge of the Sith. "Anakin's Betrayal" is a very sad track that is, in my opinion, one of William's most powerful pieces. "Palpatine's Teachings" is really, really neat. It's very dark and moody, a perfect piece for the evil emperor. The only weird thing is the end. "Anakin vs. Obi-Wan" is the action piece that plays during the battles of Anakin and Obi-Wan, and Yoda and the Emperor. Finally, "The Immolation Scene" is another sad piece, even more so than "Anakin's Betrayal."

Although I really like this CD, there are some things that are missing (as usual). First, the whole sequence where the droids are looking for Obi-Wan after he was shot. You see Obi-Wan in his ship with Senator Organa on the Hologram (or whatever it is), and Obi-Wan says that his clones turned on him. That was some pretty awesome music that OF COURSE was left out of the CD. Then there was Dual of the Fates in the movie, but completely absent from the CD. And probably the most annoying was that whole piece of music before Obi-Wan and Anakin fight. It was so touching and sad and I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY LEFT IT OUT! Absolutely amazing. Also, did anyone notice that some little bits were cut out? For example, in Anakin vs. Obi Wan, they cut out about a second or two of choir. What?! What the heck is with that? It's when Anakin is running on the long thing and jumps on the droid on the lava. Also, there was some pretty cool drumming when you see Yoda and the Emperor fighting, and you can see the whole stadium (the big room). There's also drumming in "Enter Lord Vader" that is muted in the soundtrack.

Oh well...if I'm going to collect movie scores, I'm going to have to get used to the fact that in almost all cases there's not going to be every bit of music. I've experienced this in both Pirates of the Caribbean, Jurassic Park I (there was very little left out on this score), and almost everything else. At the moment, I'm just waiting for the 22nd, for the Pirates of the Caribbean 3 soundtrack. It's gonna be amazing.

5 out of 5 stars John Williams' finest work.......2007-04-20

There is little more I can say that hasn't already been said about the soundtrack to Episode 3, especially what Amazon contributor Dan Mohr wrote in his review of the soundtrack on 2/2/2006. His review captured almost all the thoughts, feelings, and emotions I had when I first listened to the soundtrack, and was, IMO, the best review of John Williams' greatest masterpiece.

Having said that, I will say that few soundtracks have ever so perfectly captured the underlying emotional currents of their respective movie; in the case of ROTS, the contemporaneous tragedies of Anakin's fall to the Dark Side, the extermination of the Jedi, and the rise of the oppressive Empire. The listener is confronted with the depth and totality of the evil that has beset the entire galaxy to a degree that the film could not reach in only 2 hours.

Bravo, Dan Mohr, and BRAVO John Williams!

5 out of 5 stars A Great Conclusion to the Prequel Trilogy.......2007-04-07

This is a great work of art. I rank it 4th among Star Wars soundtracks after A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and The Phantom Menace. I had a hard deciding which I thought was better, The Phantom Meance or Revenge of the Sith, but I decided that The Phantom Menace lays the foundation for so much that is in this soundtrack and is thus the more masterful work. But that doesn't mean that this score still isn't great. Every piece is a thrill to listen to and pace never lets up. "Battle of the Hereos" is an amazing piece and the rendition of the "Funeral Theme" from Episoded I captures the film's tragety magnificently. Also I do not think John Williams could have portrayed the Jedi's extinction more perfectly than he did in "Anakin's Betrayal". This is without a doubt the best score of 2005 and one of the best of the decade.

2 out of 5 stars Williams is slumming it.......2007-04-01

Williams's score for Revenge of the Sith is almost entirely overbearing, lacking any emotional subtlety. The music is overcomplicated and even a bit confusing, especially in the tracks that correspond to action sequences in the movie. His overuse of choral tracks and vocals is too bombastic and irritating to be listened to without the explosions and laser blasts of the soundtrack to soften them. (Yes, this music is actually softened by the sounds of warfare.) Worst of all, much of the music has simply been lifted from earlier scores. At times his self-imitation was so blatant that I actually wondered whether the editor who had complied this score had made a mistake and I was listening to The Empire Strikes Back or A New Hope. Also suffers from not including the entire score, in some cases cutting out musical segues in obvious and awkward ways.

OhmygodtheBackstreetBoysrule!!!!!! OK, with that out of the way, let's review The Hits--Chapter One, which is one-stop shopping for the hunky pop group's three American albums--their 1997 self-titled debut, 1999's Millennium, and 2000's Black & Blue. The first disc really shines with "As Long as You Love Me," "Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)," and "All I Have to Give," capturing the Backstreet Boys' essence: sunny pop under the influence of blue-eyed soul. "I Want It That Way," from the second album, is an undeniable classic, while "The Call" has a deliciously frenzied sexual urgency and a strong, danceable beat. But the other tracks are uneven with the oddball fan-appreciation anthem "Larger Than Life" surrounded by somber, predictable ballads. The new single, "Drowning," is same-old same-old: lazy moaning over a drum machine. The Hits--Chapter One might be an optimistic name for this '90s retrospective. The future is cloudy for chapter two. --Courtney Kemp

Backstreet Boys was one of the few "boy bands" that I enjoyed during the 90s. I enjoyed their ballads the best. This is a good collection of their greatest hits.

5 out of 5 stars LOVE IT.......2007-05-06

BSB RULES!!!!!!! I LOVED NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK (STILL DO). BSB PICKED UP WHERE THEY LEFT OFF. ALL THE SONGS ON THIS CD WERE A HUGE HIT. HOWEVER, THE SONG THAT GOT THEM "STARTED" "WEVE GOT IT GOING ON" ISNT ON HERE. SOMETIMES GREATEST HITS ALBUMS TEND TO LEAVE OUT A HIT OR 2. I USED TO HAVE BSB PAJAMAS AND EVERYONE MADE FUN OF ME. OH WELL JUST GET THE CD. GREAT FOR PARTIES.

I am so glad I got this CD, it has many of the old songs from the early days of Backstreet Boys, plus a song called "Drowning" which is a really good song. I happen to like all the songs on this CD. Keep an eye out for the Backstreet Boys' newest CD coming out this spring... and remember: KTBSPA or Keep The Backstreet Pride Alive, as they say in other reviews.

Platinum sales. Palatial homes. Fred Durst's cell-phone number. Is nothing enough to lift the heavy air of angst that hangs over Staind? "I've mastered feeling nothing/ I'm dead inside/ Why don't I care?" sings frontman and walking existential crisis Aaron Lewis by way of response on "Run Away," the opening track of the group's fifth album. And so the mood is set--again. The rest of the band offers its agreement through brooding torrents of noise and dense minor-key melodies, maintaining its allegiance to 1990s metal heroes Alice In Chains and Pantera. With the exception of the tantalizingly melodic "Devil" and tender love song "Everything Changes," the acoustic guitars have largely been set aside on Chapter V, leaving Staind to pummel away at its troubles and hoping that people still have time to listen to self-pitying grown men moan about their dysfunctional childhoods. "Falling is easy/ It's getting back up that becomes a problem," Lewis sings on "Falling." --Aidin Vaziri

Album Description

Chapter V marks the return of one of the biggest-selling rock groups in America today. Recorded at Allaire Studios in Shokan, NY and at the band's Springfield, MA rehearsal space, the CD was produced and mixed by David Bottrill (Peter Gabriel, Mudvayne, Godsmack). Staind is back in a huge way!

4 out of 5 stars A small step back to form........2007-04-21

To me, Staind really fell from grace with 13 Shades of Grey. I loved Tormented, Dysfunction, and Breaking the Cycle. 13 SHades was just watered down to the point where the only reason you could tell it was them was Aaron Lewis' vocals. The hard edge that was evident on their previous efforts was all but gone.
Chapter V is a step back towards Breaking the Cycle style Staind, but in no way comes close to the caliber of record that one was. Oh, well. I think we have seen the end of heavy Staind and will only see a more mainstream version from now on. As long as they stay similar to Chapter V and don't water themselves down any more, I will stay a fan regardless.

4 out of 5 stars There is a reason why these guys are popular, great album!!!.......2006-12-13

This is a great fifth album from this boston based band. I have all of their albums from tormented to this one, and this one is really the most coalesced and solid album from them yet. There are many hits to be released on this album, like right here, schizophrenic conversations, falling ect... This band may have been part of the "nu metal" movement, but they continue to release good music that many people have chosen to like. Sure, it's not in the same class of metal as Iron Maiden, Neurosis, and Megadeth, some of my all time favorite bands, but it is great in it's own respect. Worth picking up, for a introduction to staind, or addition to a growing collection.

2 out of 5 stars A Waste !!! I feel sorry for those who Deserve ...........2006-11-21

To be honest guys , bands such as staind, limpbizbit,taproot,disturbed,breaking benjamin and others are purely wasting all their albums. These guys take atleast 4-5 albums to better and change their music. Whereas there are many deserving bands out there who can make great music in just 1 or 2 records.....examples are acroma, revis etc...! and all these soo called rockstars of todays music do is scream,pout ,and make a 3-4 song the same verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge formula !! and well....they have a great knack of emulating the bands of the past decades..!! Its all true !!! Others deserve a break..! atleast these guys should gift away one album to those struggling talented bands.. !! but they wont...coz they r afraid !!! Damn them !!
Staind is not bad at all ! ..but just i have to say...whrs the originality and creativity..why try the same thing again and again and again !!! Guys.... Listen to TOOL and King Crimson ....which all these bands...rip off !!!!!

5 out of 5 stars And the hits just keep on coming..........2006-08-16

While some may argue that Staind is becoming too soft compared to their earlier albums like Tormented and Dysfunction, that sentiment hasn't stopped them from putting out another great album packed with hits. This album blends their "hard core" metal beginnings with their greatly developed musical talents and abilities and the result is friggin brilliance. Aaron's vocals and Mike's guitar make this album worth buying.

5 out of 5 stars Stop Hatin'.......2006-08-11

Poor Staind. No one ever seems to understand them. Their first two albums, "tormented" and "dysfunction" were hits, showcasing staind's heavy blend of hard rock, and frontman Aaron Lewis's screwed up family angst. But after "dysfunction" staind started to play down the heaviness, and focus on their musical abilities. Lewis dropped the screaming for the most part, but his angst stayed the same. Still, all the wimps hiding behind their message boards talked crap.
With this, their fifth release, Staind continue pretty much where "break the cycle" and "14 shades of grey left off" the lead single, right here, is a breathtaking piece, followed by many more. I recently saw Staindwith three days grace and hurt on the Jagermeister world tour, and their show was a breathtaking experience for me, my girlfriend and our 2 friends.
So everyone who doesnt believe in evolution...stop talkin crap and go listen to your crappy pop-emo bands.........stop disrespecting legitimate artists like staind

5 out of 5 stars Chapter Two.......2007-04-10

Get this before it goes out of print. Roberta Flack is an artist who personafies excellence. Such a beautiful "touch" on the piano and velvety smoothness in her voice. She is truly one of the best entertainers ever. My personal favorite, next to Sam Cooke. I wish this CD were a DVD.

5 out of 5 stars fine as wine..........2007-01-28

This woman's voice has convinced me that there is a God...it could not have happened by chance.

When I was 15 a friend played side one of this almost everyday, I was in a summer enrichment program (Upward Bound)at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska and to this day when I hear 'Do what you gotta do' I melt. I'm still in search of that baffled dream so I can come on back and see her when I can...what a woman, what a voice, what a soul...we are blessed to have ears to hear and hearts to feel...go on 'Berta

5 out of 5 stars Roberta Flack Chapter two still the best.......2004-11-18

I first received this Album as a gift in 1972 and fell in love with it from the start. I played it so much that the record is now scratched but I still have it along with the cover. I never thought about checking to see if it had been made on a CD when I saw it on Target.com I had to have it and ordered it. I know that I will be getting hours of listening enjoyment as I did in the 1970's. I recomend Roberta Flack Chapter Two to anyone if you don't buy another Roberta Flack CD ever you must hear this one.

5 out of 5 stars One of the 5 Greatest Albums of All Time, Period........2003-05-29

I was a child when this album came out and it has haunted me ever since. Turn the lights out, light a fire in the fireplace, select your favorite bottle of wine, kick the kids out, curl up on the couch with your loved one, put this album on and enjoy. Hell, this albums so good you don't need anyone. Kick everyone out. "Reverend Lee", with good reason, is the classic of this album. You'll feel Roberta's warm breath on your neck as she sings of sin and lust. It'll take you back in time to that someone whom you couldn't resist, even though you knew better. Other favorites are "Do What You Gotta Do", "Gone Away", and "Until It's Time For You To Go". Those three songs along with "Just Like A Woman" are beautiful in their meaning and the mood they create. "Business Goes On As Usual" is placed last. It's a haunting anti-war song and you'd think it wouldn't fit in with the other songs of love and regret but it does. That's because it too is about love and the lose of that loved one. My personal favorite is "Let It Be Me". Like "Impossible Dream", Roberta's voice, the tempo, what I believe is a French Horn in the background, all combine to make you realize how beautiful songs can be, even songs you've heard a hundred times, when given to a vocal talent such as Roberta Flack. After you've recharged your soul with this album, let the spouce and kids back in and give them a hug.

5 out of 5 stars Roberta's Greatest Work..........2003-04-16

I remembered my parents playing this album and I just HAD to have it! I am not disappointed...as an adult, I can REALLY appreciate the soulfulness, haunting beauty of her music and superb talent of Roberta Flack. The entire CD is great but if you only buy it for "Reverend Lee", "Let It Be Me" and "Gone Away" its worth it! I only wish when Roberta performs live that she would sing some of these classics ... they are her greatest work!

3 out of 5 stars Not Bad, But Not Great Either.......2006-11-10

I purchased this CD at the suggestion of my teenage daughter. Some of the songs are soothing, peaceful, and carry a nice message, such as the song "God's Gift". Although the lyrics are good, his heavy overuse of what sounds like an electronic harp on most songs, at times makes the melodies seem somewhat monotonous. Listen to the song samples on your computer's media player to get an idea of what I'm talking about. Perhaps it won't affect you the same way, but it was enough for me to store the CD away after listening the second time.

5 out of 5 stars Jeff Majors One Of A Kind.......2006-05-08

Sacred Chapter 6 is simply a Master Piece, with track two on this incredible project "Gods Gift" in my opinion Jeff Majors greatest song in the history of his Sacred series. This song has all the ingrediants great writing, great instrumental tracks, and like Q, Jeff has a way of getting the right singer to bring to life his compositions, in this case Kelly Price. The rest of the project is a smorgasbord of Gospel classics. Five stars because thats all this site allows one to choose. Awesome job Jeff.

4 out of 5 stars Syleena delivers once again........2007-07-30

After two solid, if not excellent chapters, the highly underrated Syleena Johnson returns with a sexier image and a nostalgic, '70s soul-influenced sound. (I always thought her light raspy alto sounded just a little bit like Betty Wright.) Her voice is better than ever and the production here (Kanye West, Jermaine Dupri, R. Kelly, etc.) is polished and top notch. The album begins with feel-good love songs. "More" is an excellent duet with Anthony Hamilton, "Classic Love Song" is a catchy midtempo and "Bullseye (Suddenly)" is beautiful. The middle of the album is filled with more sensual tracks, but the greatest part of the album is the end, where Ms. Johnson does what she does best; she takes her painful life experiences and delivers them in song. "Another Relationship," the second single, is an emotional, scornful and dramatic testimony of a woman that is being left by her man for another woman. Ironically, just a track later, Syleena takes on the persona of "the other woman" with a guilty consience, telling the man to "Leave Her Alone." She leaves a relationship going nowhere on "Apartment for Rent." But my favorite track by far is "Only A Woman." What a way to end the album! Syleena pours her heart out on the track, sharing all the daily trials and tribulations of a woman who also has to be strong "like a man." Chapter 3 is an excellent album and I would have to agree with Ms. Johnson herself that this is her best work to date.

5 out of 5 stars Stop Sleeping On This One!!!.......2007-05-17

Syleena Johnson is back, and she ain't pulling no punches. I love a CD I can just pop in and let ride, and this is definitely on my top 5 list. Phone Sex is my favorite track, but you can sit back and let this one ride. I muat buy!

3 out of 5 stars It took it's sweet time, but it grew on me..........2007-02-03

I will admit that upon my first listen I was left a little off. This is far from what I thought I was getting myself into. I had never heard anything from her before but she was recommended to me by a friend and after looking at her impressive list of guest stars (Twista, Anthony Hamilton, Common) I didn't hesitate to long to purchase her album. Her interlude immediately set me off. Its way to preachy and then her first real track `Hypnotic' kicks in and totally disproves everything she expressed in the opener. That said, after listening to this album a few times I've come to fall for her.

She has a very strong voice, unique and different and I like that. She doesn't sound like every other R&B diva out there...she's her own woman. I will say that there are a few times on the album where I feel her voice is too mature for the songs she's trying to pull off. Songs like `More' with the brilliant Anthony Hamilton really showcase this woman's talent. `Leave me Alone' is another highlight, and even `Hypnotic' is handled well, although it's not something I think she should stick to. I was troubled to find that `Phone Sex' is my least favorite track here. I LOVE Twista but this song just does nothing for me.

Oh well...to think I hated this album the first time I heard it, tucked it away and swore never to give it another try, then I did, don't know why and now I've come to appreciate it all the more...

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Wonderful.......2007-02-02

I don't write reviews. This is actually my first one. I love this album. Syleena touches on so many different subjects. I love the raspy voice. Her voice has so much texture and personality. Nobody out there sounds like her. It is really a shame that her label has not promoted her. She could rival Mary J if her label backed her.

4 out of 5 stars she's got a right to do her thing the way she wants.......2006-12-22

Okay now while i dont own this album i took the courage of listening to it on limewire. Syleena has been a good singer since she started and she is an example of what R&B is supposed to sound like. Now from my experience of this album I enjoyed it thourgly and i would have bought it when it came out if I had known(My old filesharing program didnt have any good selection, and also i was broke). Now my favorite songs on here are hypnotic, slowly, speical occasion, time, leave me alone, and only a woman. also the interludes are seductive. Okay, now I'm seeing the complaint that she sold out. Okay yes she pulled the sensual thing on this album but she never stoops down to say...KHIA(my neck my back....lick my ...well you know the rest) level. Some are saying she shed her clothes. Ummmm........didnt she kina do that on "tonight im gonna let go" and in the video she's dressed in a somewhat short skirt and top shaking her a** in front of busta rhymes?? While I admit hypnotic doesnt sound like something syleena would do, she pulled it off very well. Overall this album is not full of tired beats like that otehr person said. Yes it's a different vibe than some of her stuff in the past it still sounds like it would be on a 30 and up station rather than say your local radio station(i mean how much serious R&B is on the radio today?) She only really got sexual on two songs (phone sex and slowly). the rest of the album is love songs and a couple of her songs about wrong doin men(which she is known to sing about).

OOOH how ironic is this. From the negative reviews one person said it was just tired beats while somebody else said there were NO beats at all. Oh well I guess it's just a matter of preference.

4 out of 5 stars It deserved better.......2007-07-05

I've often wondered if I'm the only person alive who saw "Seesaw!" It's been sadly neglected. Michele Lee was wonderful, and it was a great introduction to a guy named Tommy Tune.. The music is very enjoyable. Highly recommended for Broadway show lovers!

5 out of 5 stars SEESAW (1973 ORIGINAL BROADWAY CAST).......2007-01-27

I SAW THIS SHOW AND LOVED EVERY MOMENT. I TILL REMEMBER HOW MUCH FUN I HAD. I WAS IN COLLEGE AT THE TIME AND HAD THE GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO SEE IT AGAIN. THE SCORE IS WONDERFUL, TUNEFUL AND MEMORABLE.

1 out of 5 stars A Broadway nadir........2004-09-14

With all due respect to Cy Coleman and Dorothy Fields, both of whom made major contributions to the Broadway canon, this must be one of the weakest musical scores ever committed to vinyl. Worst of all, it bears no relation to the poignant two-character play on which it is based. Just who was it who wanted that tender little play to be enhanced by a big campy production number starring Tommy Tune?

4 out of 5 stars Michele Lee sings Cy Coleman's most underrated score.......2004-01-28

SEESAW was a musical version of William Gibson's rueful comedy-drama TWO FOR THE SEESAW, which originally starred Anne Bancroft. For the musical version, the leading lady was the delightful Michele Lee (BRAVO GIOVANNI) who earned a Tony nomination for her performance.

The Cy Coleman-Dorothy Fields score includes great numbers like "Nobody Does It Like Me", "In Tune" and the 11 o'clock number "Poor Everybody Else".

The supporting cast includes the always-reliable Tommy Tune, as well as Ken Howard, Cecelia Norfleet and LaMonte DesFontaines.

Highly-recommended for fans of Broadway musicals as well as the incantory Miss Michele Lee. [DRG CDRG6108]

4 out of 5 stars This Seesaw is merely quirky fun.......1999-08-22

Cy Coleman's Seesaw overture is a wonderful start to a wonderfully breezy CD. Most of the chorus numbers are very poor ( Spanglish, Ride Out the Storm), but the spotlighted Michele Lee, Ken Howard, and Tommy Tune are preserved fantastically. Michele Lee's husky voice is capable of making your heart soar and break at the same time. Her comedic timing is wonderful (Welcome to Holiday Inn), her down-on-her-luck song is perfection(Nobody Does It Like Me), and Poor Everybody Else will have you rooting for Michele instantly. Ken Howard is truly a Lovable Lunatic. And Tommy Tune's Tony Award winning performance is captured here with "It's Not Where You Start." It is typically Coleman music, but he is wonderfully aided with Dorothy Fields's lyrics. If you can find it for a discount, don't resist!

5 out of 5 stars Masters of Chant Chapt. II:Gregorian.......2007-04-14

I found the soothing harmonies and lush musicianship of the CD quite relaxing. I found it stimulating in a contemplative manner, stirring rich emotions and thoughts. I have bought other CDs by this group, and will buy more--as time goes by.

1 out of 5 stars I would love to listen to it, but ..........2006-11-16

... note the warning (which I didn't spot) that the disc is copy-protected. On the disc cover itself it notes that it cannot be played on a computer -- meaning no ripping the music to your PC (to listen to yourself) or to your MP3 player (to listen to yourself). Which makes its utility almost nil.

If you're only going to listen to this on a CD player, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Otherwise, you're out of luck.

5 out of 5 stars Just beautiful.........2005-10-14

I first heard this music while looking around in a store called Enchantments while in Maine over the summer. I asked the employees what this music was, & they pointed out the Gregorian Masters of Chant CDs. I own the 2nd & 3rd CDs & plan to buy The Dark Side very soon.

To be brief, this CD is amazing! I listen to it all of the time. The singing is just beautiful, & these guys did an awesome job at these songs. My favorite is Babylon, because is sounds eerie, but beautiful, at the same time. Wish You Were Here & Stairway to Heaven sound amazing as well. The whole CD sounds amazing!

I'd recommend this CD, along with the rest of the Gregorian Masters of Chant CDs, to anyone who's looking for some music that would be great to sit & relax to. I have enjoyed their CDs very much, & their CDs definitely earn at LEAST 5 stars! =D *Gives 2 thumbs up*

5 out of 5 stars Stunning..........2005-10-03

The first Gregorian Album i bought. Fromt he first track "Moment of Peace" i fell in love with it. It is so "atmospheric" listening to it in the dead of night transports you to a Church, a feeling of being surrounded by Holistic sounds.

Babylon is also good, givign an eerie sense o the song.

Overall a good album to listen to. It spurred me to buy the other albums as well. =)

I love it. She has the most beautiful voice. It's a shame that this will not be put into heavy rotation. My favorite song is I believe in love. Absolutely beautiful

5 out of 5 stars Love it !.......2004-09-02

I don't know about anyone else, but I can relate to just about every song on this album. Syleena's voice touches your soul. Good subject matter, and variety... I hope that she continues to make good music and doesn't fall into the trap of creating crap and using her looks to sell it. ;)

5 out of 5 stars The Message.......2004-08-02

Syleena Johnson sends the perfect message about life in this able. She sings about the highs and the lows of life, the happily and not so happily ever afters. Her voice is full of emotions, both love and pain. This ablum is straight from the heart.

4 out of 5 stars I can't get enough!.......2004-03-16

Syleena Johnson has a very beautiful voice and I loved the 1st album more than this one. But I still enjoy listening to this one. My favorite song is "Faithful to you". That song brings so much inspiration to my heart. I also enjoy tracks 5, 6, 10, and 11. I think this cd is worth the purchase.

5 out of 5 stars Yet another underrated artist!.......2004-01-01

This young lady is definately a "sanger". Her voice is very strong and mature. I could not believe that she was only 23 years old singing like she's been around since Betty Wright and Chaka Khan's time.
She puts her soul into her singing and that is definately what many of our artist today are missing. She's not commercial, she's not over-exposed, just underrated. If you are a true R & B soul lover, Syleena should definatley be added to your collection!

4 out of 5 stars Close but not as good as Chapter 1.......2006-02-21

I like this CD. It really fills a gap that has existed between gospel music and jazz. The stylings and solos are good, yet the mixing and post production work is pretty rough for a live album. The vocals are pretty good but may be the weakest link in this CD. A headliner gospel choir and vocalist is needed before a third CD should be considered. While Kirk's friends are nice, I can think of many better singers and gospel artists that I would like to hear him bring together. Perhaps a neat idea for the next CD.

5 out of 5 stars don't let this cd pass you by!!!.......2006-01-31

This is the best album that I have yet to hear. Falling in love with Jesus with Jonathan Butler- This is a Love song that I can hear constanly. It immediately sends me into worship. Every song is perfect

5 out of 5 stars I am feeling a No-Word Praise!.......2005-05-21

Cause let me tell you there are no words for the blessing of this CD a nd the praise song " No-Word Praise." I love JOnathan Butler and he has an awesome worship song in " Falling In Love With Jesus." I just want everyone to pay attention to " No-Word Praise " as well. That song makes you want to shout to the Lord! God Bless brother Kirk.

5 out of 5 stars DVD version...absolutely the BEST!.......2005-05-18

Can't get enough play out of my DVD version...absolutely the BEST EVER of worship, next to Butler's "The Worship Project". The BGs sound like ONE person so how good is that, huh?! My favs...Jonathan Butler, Tyrone - love that organ-playing! and, well, KIRK is tops, of course!!! NAWWWW . . . EVERYONE on this project were just super wonderful! Got rid of my cable TV and didn't have time to have withdrawal b/c this DVD MORE than made up for it and then some! Good times of drawing me into worshipping my Saviour! Blessings to all who participated!!!

5 out of 5 stars I am "Falling in Love w/ Jesus" all over again!.......2004-12-14

I heard this song on the gospel channel on cable. My goodness it made me sit erect and I have this song in my heart!

I will definitely get this cd if only for this one song. It is beautiful and so precious.

My goodness you will be a BELIEVER if not all ready that JESUS LOVE is truly UNCONDITIONAL!

Yes, I have falling in LOVE w/ JESUS all over again!

Amen,
