Awesome to hear the old masters almost live........2007-03-27

It was an awesome experience to hear Ragtime and early blues played by the masters themselves. When you hear the music from their own hands, if not their own pianos, it makes the music immediate, and makes even clearer the stylistic differences of the various American musical pioneers. The sound quality is excellent. I'd strongly recommend this recording to anyone who enjoys early-20th-century jazz.

The Greatest Ragtime of the Century.......2005-10-30

What a terrific CD. What a joy to add to your life. Everyone should begin their day with this Great Ragtime.We would all be much better.

As a former dancer, Flapper, wth the Charleston in my routine, I do appreciate Great Music. I'm not quite as good as I used to be, but neither are you, Gal. Will be 66 next birthday. Still have the rhythm and love life.

Put some spice in your life and don't let this CD get away. Please, just get it today.

A great introduction and sampling........2005-08-23

Prior to this album, the only ragtime I really knew was "The Entertainer" and "Maple Leaf Rag". I don't know how this album fares for enthusiasts, but I've thoroughly enjoyed it. It introduced me to several different composers. The way the album is organized by giving you a two or three song block by each composer is good. As you listen to this, you can easily hear the different styles from one composer to another. As for the recording quality, I don't have any complaints whatsoever. Each note is clear without much noticable fuzz or hissing. The versions of Scott Joplin's songs are played a bit brash and speedy when compared to Joshua Rifkin, but I think they sound livlier because of it. Overall a solid release.

Three Plus gets an A+.......2007-01-14

I first heard Three Plus on a recent trip to Hawaii. I fell in love with them and many other Hawaiian artist. "Honey Baby", "Island Woman" and "Mystic Man" are particular favorites of mine. I highly recommend this CD. It takes me back to Maui every time I listen!

One of the best reggae albums I've ever heard.......2006-01-07

The voices and harmonies are so good and the music so peaceful it will sooth your soul. There are also a few upbeat tunes as well. If you like smooth reggae music, this is the album for you. No politicial messages, or songs about hard times. Mainly love songs written by 3 300 plus pound hawaiian young men infatuated with the local island ladies and who love island life.

Love This CD.......2004-11-07

My husband got me this CD (while he was still my boyfriend) and I simply simply couldn't stop playing it. I loved it so much I had them play Three Plus music at our wedding in Manila and everyone seemed to have loved the song Honey Baby (one of our theme songs)and Drving Me Pupule. I play the CD at work here in Singapore and clients always look at the cover and ask me where they can get it. If you're thinking of buying it... Just get it. It's so worth it :)

A must have for any CD collection.......2001-07-13

I bought this CD back in Maui when our neighbor family on the Island was singing the song "Smooth Operator". I had to buy the CD and since I have been back that CD is aways on my deck. My friends have tried to still it many times but I always keep my eyes on it. Every song is Great

Tight.......2001-06-10

This Cd titled "Honey Baby" is the best reggae cd you could ever buy! the songs "two person party" and "island woman" are one of a kind. you will never here anything better then this. buying this cd is a very good investment. you wont be able to ever take it out of your cd player!

Worth having because of Honey..........2006-09-20

... the Lion Dance and the fact that some of these arrangements work well out of context. Some of these songs in their original arrangements are diffiicult to listen to on their own. Regretfully, some of these arrangements are a little cheesy (for example the saxophone solo in this version of Loving You).

All in all, this is an okay compilation of some Sondheim songs, but definately one to get after having bought all the original Broadway cast recordings.

One of the best Sondheim compilation CD availiable.......2002-08-25

I love this CD, every track is a winner. Get it.

Honestly, Why Bother?.......2002-07-31

All in all, this is a pleasant enough compilation. There are no embarassing moments. The performers all acquit themselves nicely. But in the long run, there's really little to recommend this above the rest of the many tributes and reviews recorded of Sondheim's music. No new interpretations. No amazing performances. No inspired song choices. Nothing special here, folks.

Another fine addition to the series.......2001-02-13

After a bit of a slip with the second, this series was back on track with this third CD of songs cut from well-known musicals. As I mentioned in a previous review, just about any successful musical has had songs cut from it, not always because the song wasn't good, but because it no longer fit the show as updated, or a character or scene was cut (the booklet explains why each song was removed from its show). Once again, the songs are all good and the performances are wonderful. My favorites are "Mama's Talking Soft" (cut from Gypsy), "Big Fat Heart" (Seesaw), "Your Own College Band" (Where's Charley?), "When I Go Out Walkin' with my Baby" (Oklahoma!), and "Pick Up the Pieces" (also Seesaw). Bruce Kimmel was smart in using show singers instead of pop singers. I recommend the entire series. This CD features some fine songs that deserve renewed appreciation.

Product Description

Part jazz, part folk, part blues, part Americana - Adie Grey's latest project, How To Find A Rainbow, is a collection of new songs written and recorded in Nashville. From the light-hearted folk-rock approach of "Like a Couple of Kids in Love" to the jazz polish of "Mr. Armstrong was Right" and from the social commentary of "The Gospel of the Hammer" to the basic low-down funk of "An Old Man's Darlin'", How To Find A Rainbow doesn't so much ignore strict musical definitions, as it looks for "those places where they start to blend together". "If there's a basic common denominator to all this, it's that it's music made by and for adults", says Adie

Album Description

Once upon a time a young bunch of music makers from perth ignited much excitement with their debut album 'goddess'. Some fifteen years later the honeys return with their follow-up album 'star baby'. Why the delay? Well it's a long story but the good news is that original members grant shanahan & bruce begley have delivered some cracking new tunes for lead vocalist andrea croft to deliver with her charming vocals.
