1 out of 5 stars Very disappointing, considering what it could have been.......2007-04-20

Take a look at the running times:

Disc 1: 60 minutes
Disc 2: 50 minutes
Disc 3: 61 minutes
Disc 4: 58 minutes

What gives Silva? There is *MUCH* more John Williams in the silva screen back catalogue by the Prague Philharmonic than what is in this set, and thats not including their entire discs devoted to Star Wars Films, Indiana Jones Trilogy etc. Why isn't Hook "When You're Alone" included on Disc 2? There's room. Why isn't 1941 on Disc 1? There's room. Why isn't Earthquake on Disc 3? There's room. Why isn't Far and Away on disc 4? There's room. Where's the other ten minutes of the Rare Breed suite on disc 3? Why isn't Midway on disc 1? Where are the Land of the Giants, Time Tunnel and Lots In Space tv themes? Etc. Etc. Etc.

C'mon Silva, most of these 4 disc mega boxes released in the past few years are packed to the brim, but not this one, and with new recordings made after this was released (the terminal, munich, geisha, war of the worlds, star wars ep 3, harry potter 3), it only makes sense for a "re-do" in the next couple of years.

Further, with Silva releasing the 100 Greatest Film Themes on six discs in a couple of months, it's only a matter of time before we see the ultimate six disc john williams set.

This isn't a BAD set to own, but it could have been much better and when compared to the Jerry Goldsmith and John Barry sets in this same series, this one is a major letdown.

5 out of 5 stars Always a pleaser.......2007-03-31

I listen to music all day with patients in my dental chair. This one is a winner with everyone. Patients always comment on how they recognize a song. Who doesn't love John Williams? His music transcends time.

5 out of 5 stars JOHN WILLIAMS 40 Years of Film Music.......2007-01-10

This 4 cd pack is an anthology of all John Williams works. From his earlier works "The Poseidon Adventure" and "Jaws" right through "Indiana Jones" and the most recent"Star Wars" prequel movies are included. Williams work in thriller and horror are also included. If you are into soundtracks and love movie music this is an essential buy. The quality of the music is excellent. With ten or more tracks on each cd it's well worth the money.

5 out of 5 stars Movie Music Magic & Memorabilia.......2006-12-13

This four CD set expands on the previously released John Williams Greatest Hits. It's a grand collection of nearly four hours of famous music scores from over forty years. There are many songs never before available in any collection. The short liner notes tell a great tale of musical movie history and include all of his numerous award nominations and wins. Each song (oddly enough) mentions the actors and the director, so fond are John Williams's memories of his work with these people. All of the conductors are mentioned along with specific orchestras, choirs, arrangement and orchestration specialists and even the publishers (contractual, I am sure). The only things missing are his early television scores, such as those for "Lost In Space" (by Johnny Williams back then). But with four discs, one has nothing to complain about and everything to enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars John Williams: 40 Years of Outstanding Film Music.......2006-11-28

I have been a huge fan of John Williams and I have known about his music for years. However, I never actually bought any of his music on CD. I was rather skeptical about purchasing this CD but when it arrived I knew I had made the right choice. The sound quality of the compilation is outstanding. The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra do a great job under the direction of Paul Bateman. The original London Symphony Orchestra CDs of John Williams' Star Wars Trilogy CDs are marginally better but this is still a great CD compilation. If you love ET, Star Wars, Indiana Jones and Harry Potter, you will love this compilation soundtrack. Buy it, listen to these CDs in the car and enjoy every minute of the collection!!!

Product Description

Traditional Chinese instruments meet Hip-Hop & Jazz. An experiment in cross-cultural soundscapes, The Shanghai Restoration Project draws its creative inspiration from the old 1930s Shanghai jazz bands, an early combination of East and West that's become an international legend. The Project revives this exotic blend by introducing Eastern instruments and rhythms to the Western sounds of hip-hop, jazz, and pop. The Shanghai Restoration Project debuted as MSN Music's "New Artist of the Week" in early 2006 and became the #1 selling electronic album on the site during the month of January. Since then, it has appeared in iTunes' Top 20 Electronic Albums in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, Europe, and Japan. To date, tracks from the project have been featured in various advertisements, television shows, and promotions. In November 2006, the project was featured as the "Single of the Week" in iTunes Japan. In early 2007, the introductory track was selected as the theme song for a worldwide advertisement campaign for Kenzo Parfums.

5 out of 5 stars Wow!!.......2007-07-03

This album has such a sophisticated sound and it's very creative. I haven't heard a fusion of music like this before. Truly East meets West. I love all the tracks. If you have the chance, make sure you listen to the Reinterpretations album. They've re-recorded a bunch of tracks from the CD.

5 out of 5 stars A simple and exotic blend.......2007-06-08

I heard a sample track of this CD from a friend of mines and love the blend of traditional music, jazz, hip hop and easy listening to this CD. I am glad to have gotten this CD and am waiting for another sequel.

5 out of 5 stars Fusion music at its best!.......2007-05-15

Extending across the genres of jazz, pop, dance, and hip-hop, The Shanghai Restoration Project is a unique offering that blends Chinese traditional instruments with English vocals and Western styling. Bold artistic statements like this are a sign of the future, and really reflect Dave Liang's visionary style and Chinese American background. Avenue Joffre and the various incarnations of Miss Shanghai are my picks for the best "hits" out of the lot, but all of the tracks are particularly well done. A definite buy for anyone who enjoys innovative music!

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful CD.......2007-04-16

This CD is truly fantastic. Their music is fresh, funky yet chilled. There isn't one track I don't like. They are the best, most original new band I've heard in ages.

5 out of 5 stars Sexy and Original.......2007-04-12

This album is amazing. Perfect for lounges and relaxing time.
My favorites are: Miss Shanghai, Babylon of the Orient, Lu Xun, Avenue Joffre, Pudong New District and The Bund... Pretty much all the tracks. :)

Pianist-composer Bob James has been a mainstay on the contemporary jazz scene from the early '70s to today. His bell-like electric piano sound made him a radio favorite and a Grammy Award winner. This two-CD set contains James's greatest hits. There are the hip-hop sampled, snappy CTI label smashes like "Nautilus" and "Westchester Lady," as well as the plaintive "Touchdown" and the popular "Angela (The Theme from Taxi)" from his Columbia Records days. But there's also "Hockney" and the classical work, "Farandole," which showcase his beautiful acoustic jazz piano sound and his overlooked arranging skills. This compendium includes a multitude of sideman and collaborators, including Hubert Laws, Jon Faddis, Earl Klugh, Ron Carter, and David Sanborn. "Brighton by the Sea" with Grover Washington Jr. (originally appearing on James's H album), is rhythmically revamped with a zesty 21st-century drum & bass remix, showing that the music of Bob James is melodic, moving, and modern. --Eugene Holley Jr.

5 out of 5 stars Restoration - Bob James.......2007-07-24

The best of his years. He has put together all of his wonderful works in a 2 CD collection that can't be beat. A great CD for those who know and love Bob James and for those that want to be introduced to his style.

5 out of 5 stars Essential recordings of a recent past!.......2007-05-16


Bob James will be reminded as one of the most remarkable innovators of the new sounds of jazz and ture herald of what we commonly denominate as smooth jazz. His sense of the musicality and extraordinary talent made of him a pathfinder. His musical colleagues such Earl Klugh or David Sanborn have been launched by this driving force, an anthological legend named Bob James.

This set is a fundamental compilation of his best works, with first - rate sound.

5 out of 5 stars Finally a Compilation for the Great Man! Great Sound!.......2005-12-03

I have to confess that I only really got this disc because I loved "Angela-The Theme From Taxi" and so I didn't really want to get everything the man has ever done and so I waited and searched high and low for a cd like this and my prayers were answered! Not only did I finally get the track but I was very impressed by the other tracks on the 2 discs. Great smooth jazz and although no mention of any remastering is made clearly on the disc, I have to say that the sound quality is amazing! I've heard many "remastered" discs that are blatant misrepresentations and only a very few that are clear improvements over the original but this disc sounds a lot better than even many of those! For the lover of smooth jazz and those who want to get a great truly representative best of compilation of the man but not get all the albums, this is the best version that's currently out there and I think the only one really. Highly recommended.

4 out of 5 stars Great music but two edits were ill advised!.......2002-08-30

Bob James music has been a major soundtrack for my life since 1974 (and Earl Klugh 1977) replacing the Beatles(rock)of my adolescence as a major influence! The compilation as a whole is excellent but I was really disappointed by the edits of "Kari" and "Feel Like Making Love". Anyone not familiar with Bob James' music probably wouldn't notice a thing and still enjoy these tracks. The only thing I could relate this to in some manner, is like hearing the "Top 40" version of "Light my Fire" by the Door's or "Oye Como Va" by Santana versus the longer versions on the albums.
The edit of "Kari" trucates Earl Klugh's "gorgeous" acoustic guitar solo and the edit of "Feel like Making Love" chops Bob James electric piano solo that defines so much of the style of his later work!

Following the formula that has already yielded them 16 No. 1 songs in the contemporary Christian music market, Phillips, Craig & Dean are back with harmony-laden uptempo hits, poignant ballads, and soulful rave-ups. Keeping true to form, these three pastors strike gold immediately with the hard-charging and anthemic title track, perhaps one of their finer moments in the studio. Give producer Phil Naish credit here for not only adding a full-band feel with the pounding drums and chiming acoustic guitars, but also for stretching the boundaries of Dan Dean's pop-hit vocals. The same can be said for "One Single Light," another sure-fire top single. Randy Phillips's strong, reliable R&B influence can be felt on "Living for Heaven" and "New Millennium." And Shawn Craig balances the energy and slows it down in his superb ballad "A Place Called Grace." All in all, another winner for PC&D--and not bad work for these full-time pastors' second job. --Michael Lyttle

    5 out of 5 stars Sumptuous and lovely.......2005-03-30

    I have actually never seen the movie "Restoration," but stumbled across the soundtrack some years ago. I have since given it as a gift to every classical music nut I know.

    The soundtrack to "Restoration" is an uncannily seamless blend of orchestral and chamber music (mostly Henry Purcell) with the modern-day scoring of the peerless James Newton Howard. Purcell's "King Arthur" and "The Fairy Queen" are used here, and Howard melds his work with Purcell's so beautifully that I think somewhere in heaven, Purcell must be smiling down at Howard.

    It's an astonishing soundtrack, filled with gorgeous music that suggests floral tapestries, lutists wandering through a grassy field, richly appointed thrones, crowned heads, corseted ladies and bewigged gentlemen, but most of all, an urgency implied by love and ardor. It's just magnificent. One of these days, I've got to see the movie!

    5 out of 5 stars A rich and sumptuous score.......2002-02-28

    With Snow falling on Cedars, he entranced me. With Dinosaur, he amazed me. But despite these precedents, in his score for Restoration, James Newton Howard managed to astonish me again. He has created some incredible Baroque-esqe music, sounding somewhat akin to Trevor Jones' score for Gulliver's Travels. The powerful recurring theme, best heard in 'The Fire', must be one of the best themes of film music, and, though it pops up often, never becomes repetitive. James Newton Howard's original music puts the likes of Purcell, which it is buried amongst, to shame. The best track must be 'The Cabinet Of Curiosities'. A splendid score.

    5 out of 5 stars Thundering and Beautiful!.......2000-07-12

    I love this CD! The movie is great too. My favorite tracks are 27-"The Fire", 9-"The Wedding",and 2-"Main Titles". The whole score is great! I bought this without seeing the movie and the CD did well on its own. When I finally saw the movie a week later, the score was even better when it was in the film.

    5 out of 5 stars Pulcrissima Audire.......1999-04-18

    Well, I've found a yet another use for Latin. This music is without question Most Beautiful to Hear. I love the movie Restoration. It is so visually stunning I would watch it all the time if I could. The same came be said for the soundtrack. This is the first time I have ever been struck by the music while watching a movie. The music is full of emotion and spirit. If you've never heard it, I pity you, and if you don't like it, I'm concerned about you! Everyone get this CD,it is the best that will ever be (with the exception of The Four Seasons). Et quid agitis hodie?

    5 out of 5 stars Haunting Soundtrack.......1999-02-05

    The music of this film stayed with me long after the movie was over. It is one of the most moving soundtracks I have ever heard. You will not be disappointed.

      5 out of 5 stars Greatest Power Pop" concept album" ever.......2006-08-20

      Michael Quercio and fellow bandmates have unleashed the classic album all fans of the genre have anticipated for years.Always loved the first e.p.w/"Angela Davis Hair" but This CD contains songs just as excellent such as "Do You Remember". And the whole album holds together perfectly with no filler.Plus the song names are the craziest since Captain Beefheart and Arthur Lee would do us all favors by sharing their wonderful music-such as "You Are Wise in Your Conceit,O'Beautiful Woman of the Tartars".Don't know how they expect to sell many albums with the crazy titles they give them(smart people will know but the dummies probably won't).An album that will restore your faith in rock n roll and all good things.Don't miss it!

      4 out of 5 stars Amazing Blondel never cease to amaze........2004-10-10

      The earliest reviewer is far too harsh. Amazing Blondel's 70's work (Evensong, Fantasia Lindum, and England) is so beautiful it makes one want to sing along and celebrate life and nature. This reunion work is equally beautiful but in a quieter, more contemplative way. The musicianship and songwriting are excellent. It just misses 5 stars for lack of a standout track, although "Benedictus Es Domine" and "Cawdor and Widdershins" come close. I very much wish they would record again. 4.5 stars.

      4 out of 5 stars Would call it gothic if it wasn't so baroque.......1999-12-30

      This seems to be one of thease recordings you either love or hate. All I knew of Amazing Blondels early works before I bought this one was their old album »Evensong«, which contains some songs I absolutely like, and when I saw they had reunited and got »Restoration«, I thought they had develloped in a nice way. I don't like all of the new songs, but two of them - »Highwayman« and »Road to Sedgemoor« are so great that they are worth bying the whole CD. The music may seem to be a little bit to heavy, meaning pompous, inflated, and there are some wonderful weird note in »Sedgemoor« that surely will not please everyone - in a way, it's like gothic music (=music for people who consider themselves goths), only it's baroque. I like it. And in any case, it's worth a try.

      1 out of 5 stars Blondel reunites - they shouldn't have bothered.......1999-07-25

      First of all, the review above from Dirty Linen doesn't refer to this album. This is a new studio album recorded in 1997 - the band's first album with John Gladwin in about 22 years. Anyway, it's absolutely awful. The songs are meandering and unfocused, nothing like the marvelous stuff they were doing 25 years ago. If you're a fan of their vintage music, stay away from this one!
