5 out of 5 stars One of the best ever.......2007-07-16

This is an OUTSTANDING album. It sounds as fresh today as when it was released almost 40 years ago.

4 out of 5 stars calido tesoro.......2007-03-02

realmente los 60 fueron una caldera inagotable de sensaciones, estilos,excesos, propuestas... que dificilmente puedan tener parangon...he aqui una muestra muy valiosa de esa confusa y hermosa realidad..gospel, funk, rock, psicodelia....versiones como "in the midnight hour","people get ready" te vuelan la cabeza.....muy buen disco, ademas tiene esa joya perenne como "time has come today"..que mas queres??

4 out of 5 stars Time has come today By The Chambers Brothers.......2007-02-24

One of the First albums too talk about the Homeless. One of the first R&B/Gospel groups too cross over to the Rock genre. The Chambers Brothers are one of the Icons of the early Rock Movement. Two songs (The Time Has Come Today & People Get Ready), are must haves for Any Fan of early Rock.

5 out of 5 stars Psychedelic Perfection.......2006-10-13

"Time Has Come Today" is one of the best psychedelic rock recordings ever produced and is a "must have" for any 60's rock aficionado. I heard it for the first time in 1968 on WABX FM in Detroit. I had a 10th grade Enlish teacher who would let us listen to the radio in class while doing our writing assignments. "Time" was one of the songs on the free form ABX playlist that got me hooked on rock and blues. Get this album!!!

5 out of 5 stars Psychedelic masterpiece.......2006-04-06

You simply cannot talk 60's psychedelia and not mention The Chambers Brothers! Their harmonizing and far-out sound (blending many musical elements to create their own unique sound) make this album a treasure.

I, too, have this primarily because of the full eleven minute version of "Time Has Come Today" but I love the majority of the album, most especially "So Tired" (second fave on this album) as well as "Dinah" (an extra track on the cd that was not part of the album).

This goes hand in hand with Iron Butterfly's seventeen minute epic "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida." Put those two cuts along with Grand Funk Railroad's "I'm Your Captain/Closer To Home," The Steve Miller Band's "Space Encounter/Fly Like An Eagle," Neil Young's "Cowgirl In the Sand," Eric Burdon and The Animals' "Sky Pilot" and anything else you can squeeze in (considering those tracks' combined running time will go over the time limit of a standard 74 minute disc) onto one CD and fly away! - Donna Di Giacomo

5 out of 5 stars Instruments of the Orchestra - Great Reference Material!.......2007-04-04

This set lends itself to greatly enhancing one's knowledge of the orchestra, instruments in it, and their usage. I am a huge music buff, and I still picked up a great deal I previously did not know. I highly recommend this for all who wish to understand the origin of music, as well as the processes that are employed to create music!

5 out of 5 stars Beginner or Expert.......2007-03-12

This CD is excellent for the beginner or expert! To be able to haear the instrumets separately and then together really provides a good education. and/or refresher. The book thaty comes with the CD is alomost worth the price by itself!

5 out of 5 stars Very Informative and Enjoyable.......2006-11-20

Whether you're a music novice or pro, "The instruments of the Orchestra" is a very worthwhile purchase. The 7 CDs, with a total of 8 hours, are expertly narrated by Jeremy Siepmann. He's a great speaker, very much like the late Leonard Bernstein was. Mr. Siepmann takes you on an unforgetable musical journey covering the origins and use of the various orchestral instruments throughout musical history. The balance between his narration and a wealth of musical examples, which range from snippets to entire movements, is superb. The comprehensive enclosed booklet is excellent and faithfully follows the 7 CDs in content. Even with my 40+ years of music training I still learned new things from this wonderful collection. Considering the excellence of the content, and a cost that translates to about $5 per disc, this collection is a great value. Grab it, you won't regret that you did. Five solid stars!

3 out of 5 stars Frank's view.......2006-08-19

This boxed set of CD's with booklet achieved all I had hoped that it would. There are good samples of individual instruments and well done commentary on each. The only drawback was that some of the samples were too brief and could have been longer, hoiwever I guess this fits in with time constraints of the medium. It has given me a lot of clues as to future purchases of CD's for listening to individual instruments. Altogeth a satisfactory purchase and a welcome addition to my collection.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Intro for Those Not Familiar with the Orchestra.......2003-11-08

I've listened to classical music for years and am interested in composition. I bought this CD set to learn how an orchestra and its instruments work. I thought the CDs would be a nice but boring lecture. They aren't! Not only are they FUN but they are informative as well. I learned a huge amount from each CD and couldn't wait to listen to the next one.

The narrator and writer is a great speaker and holds your attention well. He is definitely knowledgeable. He provides musical examples for each point he makes, so you get to "hear" what he just talked about. I'd say the CDs are about 65% music and 35% narration. You'll learn about the range of instruments, some history, different ways to play them, how they sound, and how they are used in the orchestra. This CD set was a great learning experience and is sold at such a low price!

I recommend this CD for those who want to learn about classical music and those who know about it but are interested in learning more about the inner workings of an orchestra. You'll learn much useful information. For instance, the Rite of Spring (with that eerie start) is written for bassoon! I never knew a bassoon could sound like that but now I do.

The one complaint I have is the last CD. This deals with the orchestra. I wanted more of a tour of how the orchestra has been used through history up to the present. Instead, it was a tour of how different groups of instruments sound. I thought it could have been better. The other 6 CDs are excellent.

5 out of 5 stars The time has come - finally.......2007-07-27

The time has indeed come to appreciate Pentangle as one of the most exciting and unique musical adventures in popular music. Having listened in my youth to their first LP on a small Philips Bambino record player, it is a revelation to hear the first cd on this finely packaged and masterly remastered 4-cd set open with the guitar figure on Mirage from the first cd in crisp, crystal clear remastered sound: each instrument comes into its own, showing how Pentangle as few others managed to let each voice be distinct and clear, yet merging into a seamless whole. The virtuosity of each musician shines through from the first moment and through the whole four-disk set.

A lot has been written about intuitive dazzling interplay of Bert Jansch and John Renbourn, creating a guitar sound that has never been replicated before or since, sounding as exciting and inventive today as ever. The muscular, distinctive voice of Danny Thompson is heard more clearly.
In this remastered version, it is perhaps the multilayered percussion of Terry Cox that is revealed most clearly. The rhythm section is marked by its jazz background, always creating fresh approaches, never losing the beat and drive. In the lost years of Pentangle in the 80s one critic remarked Pentangle to be "dry and academic sounding". He could barely have heard the music on this 4-cd record: The music sounds cutting-edge 2007; the interplay of the musicians finding new inroads to traditional material, and the record contains much new material, all of consistent quality.

Perhaps the greatest treat and the true revelation is the whole cd 3 devoted to a concert in Royal Festival Hall in 1969. This record reveals the level of musicianship Pentangle had reached. Where many groups are studio-products and have difficulties replicating their sounds in concert, Pentangle reveal that the studio hid their strengths rather than reveal them. In concert every note is played just as crisp and clear, but with more force and dynamics than in the studio. Danny Thompson's double bass playing is amazing throughout (name one double bass player in the whole of popular music that is his equal), but the real revelation on the live record is Jacqui McShee's capacities as a vocalist. She becomes the voice of all suffering women, strong and serious in Bruton town and Let no man steal your thyme, without the coy features of many female singers. She can also belt it out as a blues singer in Way behind the sun in a manner that is much more potent than on the studio recordings. The live record shows one of the best bands ever at their peak. The only group they can be compared to may be the John Coltrane Quartet in their prime, but exhibiting even more variety in their musical expressions than JCQ. Many hidden gems are strewn out on the record, for instance an elongated alternate take on the classic "Reflection", more jazzy, freer and more intensive than on record. An instrumental version of the accompaniment to Jack Orion is also unforgettable.

The time has come to appreciate Pentangle as one of the most unique and durable contributions to popular music. The legendary DJ John Peal ended his liner notes to Pentangle`s first album with "play this record to those you love". I can only agree.

5 out of 5 stars WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-07-18

Back in '89 I was a budding garage guitarist. A sophisticated uncle took me up to Vancouver BC for the International Folk Music Festival where I saw this band that literally changed the way I look at rock music. I was 17 years old and The Pentangle blew me away. I have since learned many reasons to appreciate this quintet--most especially the original line-up. As for this collection of their music? Disc one and two make for an interesting "Greatest Hits" style selection. Some of my favorites are missing and the work from Bert and John's solo albums could have been replaced by some more team efforts but still...not a bad selection. Disc three offers nothing truly new. It is the concert from Sweet Child, including the unearthed tracks released not long ago with the reissue, resequenced to resemble the original concert. Enjoyable but not ground breaking. Disc four, however, is worth the price alone. These are amazing live tracks. Most come from television appearances. The sound is listenable for the era and the performances inspired. These are not BBC "In The Studio" recordings...this is true live with an audience and the band goes for it. I would recommend this for any fan.

5 out of 5 stars A Great Wee Folk-Jazz Band.......2007-06-08

It's time that a good, multi-disc compilation came out on Pentangle. The band brought together great musicians [Bert Jansch, John Renborn, Danny Thompson, Jacqui McPhee, Terry Cox} to create something much greater than the sum of the parts. The excellent rhythm section of Thompson and Cox providing a foundation for the virtuosity of Renborn and Jansch to take us into heavenly places, whilst Jacqui's pure vocals are breath taking. The first four years of the band produced some of the best Brit-folk music of all time. I could listen to this music ever day of my life and never tire of it. Buy it and enjoy it.

5 out of 5 stars Almost perfect.......2007-05-30

If it had included the studio version of "Let No Man Steal Your Thyme" it would have been perfect. :-)
Some of the movie tracks are not that enjoyable, but I was happy to have finally had a chance to hear them. There's plenty of great music on here even with skipping those tracks.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic.......2007-05-08

I just recently got this collection and had only listened to the first 3 discs but from what I have heard this is a great collection. It includes singles, alternate takes, key album cuts, and live performances from concerts, BBC radio, and TV and detailed liner notes in a nice digi pack booklet. All the members of Pentangle have contributed to the notes and the sound quality is amazing, especially the Shel Talmy produced cuts. This is an excellent (albeit expensive) primer if you're looking to get into this group since it gives a much broader overview of their recording career so if want to take the plunge into a sound incorporating traditional folk, jazz, pop, and amazing acoustic guitar playing than dive in here. Please keep in mind that the Pentangle was a lot jazzier in their approach than the Incredible String Band and Fairport Convention even though these bands were drawing from the same well each one has there own unique sound but the Pentangle were far more popular so they are a pretty good starting point if you are looking to get in to the English version of folk-rock.

5 out of 5 stars The time has come to buy this compilation!.......2003-02-16

I purchased this disk "Time Has Come Today: The Best Of The Chambers Brothers" to get a copy of the great song "Time Has Come Today" which is a combination of psychedelic rock and soul. I was pleasantly surprised with the rest of the songs on the disk. The Chambers Brothers were one of the first integrated rock groups and their music was a great combination of psychedelic rock, gospel, soul and funk. Besides the memorable "Time Has Come Today" cuts like "A New Time - A New Day" and "Love, Peace and Happiness" emphasize the more psychedelic aspects of the band and contain some nasty distorted guitar work. Cuts like "Uptown" and "I Can't Turn You Loose" are more soulful cuts. "People Get Ready" brings the band's gospel roots to the front with excellent harmony vocals and a touching rendition of this classic song. "All Strung Out Over You", "I Can't Stand It" and "Funky" have infectious danceable funky beats. The music is sort of a cross between Jimi Hendrix, James Brown and Sly & The Family Stone. The compilation from 1966-1970 contains some rare singles and soundtrack cuts as well as an additional alternate version of "Time Has Come Today".

My only regret is that the disk is not longer. It is approximately 63 minutes so a number of additional cuts could have been added including the over 10 minute album version of "Time Has Come Today" rather than the single version included here. Do not let this deter you from purchasing this set. It is better than either of the other compilations listed on this site because it contains more cuts than either "Greatest Hits" or "Time". There are only 3 total songs from these other 2 compilations that do not appear on "Time Has Come:Best Of The Chamber's Brothers". This is a fine representation of how the musicians and bands of the sixties incorporated the influences of other genres of music into their own sound. It is a shame that this band is only known for "Time Has Come Today" because the Chambers Brothers deserve better as evidenced by this anthology.

5 out of 5 stars Soul Rock Pioneers.......2002-09-03

Soon after purchasing this wonderful collection of soulfully rockin' gems I mentioned it to my old highschool buddy Pat,who's a record collecting fiend. "Dang, I'd forgotten all about them" ,he said. Well, me too,and that was unfortunate because I missed out on hearing some great music for the past thirty years. The Chambers Brothers were arguably the first self contained,songwriting, African American rock band in America.With the addition of British drummer Brian Keenan they were one of the first integrated bands to have success.They pioneered the way for Jimi Hendrix and Sly Stone so their historical value would be substantial even if they were mediocre.In fact they're terrific!Great gospel trained voices singing funky rock n' soul over big fat beats.This was the sound that lessers like Rare Earth and Pacific Gas and Electric were trying for,but they just did'nt have the moxie to pull it off.'Time Has Come Today' was the big hit,and the version that appears here benefits from having seven minutes of psychedelic frou-frou edited from the middle.What's left is a tight rockin' tick tockin' postcard from the swinging sixties. Every song on here is fun and swinging.The live "Wade In The Water" provides an excellent example of just how good these guys were in concert.So now I gotta have their live album too.After all I gotta make up for thirty years time.You should get yours now.

4 out of 5 stars Does not include the long versions.......2001-04-16

This is a decent enough collection of the Chambers Brothers best but there are two songs which had great extended album versions: "Time Has Come Today'" and "New Generation." The original album which includes "Time Has Come Today" is still in print and can be ordered in cd form. Unfortunately, the "New Generation" album is not in print. Therefore, the "long" version of that song is hard to get. I loved the Chambers Brothers and I used to buy their albums in vinyl when I was in high school. I also used to see them perform live. I would play the great long versions over and over. Here, the collection is great but the versions included are disappointing. The cd still gets 4 stars for great performances by a great band.

5 out of 5 stars great product.......2007-06-14

i was very pleased with the service! i couldnt find this on cd at any stores i will definitly buy again!

5 out of 5 stars Awesome.......2007-01-10

This is classic Martina. One that you should absolutely have in your collection. I was very happy with how fast I received my order, but especially the fact that it was the correct cd. I have tried to order it other places before and either got the wrong cd or they said it was on back order and I never recieved it.

Thanks

5 out of 5 stars THIS IS GOOD OLE COUNTRY WITH BEAUTIFUL BLUE EYES.......2003-04-24

This is good ole country with beautiful blue eyes and a powerful voice.
I now have all of her cd's and this is a landmark cd for her. Her talents are strong and ever present during this recording. Songs like THE TIME HAS COME, CHEAP WISKEY and TRUE BLUE FOOL provide us with the typical country sound that we are all used to. I now know where the Dixie Chicks took some of their cues from.
This cd marks the debut of what will be one of country music's finest voices.
This cd is deeply enriched in the sound of country music. I have to say that this was a good launching point for Martina. Her later projects are not as "typical" country.But they provide us with so much fun and so much talent to enjoy, that you forget that it is atypical country. Her other cds (Emotion, Wild Angels and Greatest Hits) have touched on a new concept called pop-country. She will continue to be one of the most beloved and talented women in music today and in future.
I am glad to love her and her music.

5 out of 5 stars THIS ALBUM IS A COUNTRY CLASSIC!.......2003-03-19

Martina McBride's "The Time Has Come" is the best debut album ever. It is country in its purest forms. "The Time Has Come" is filled with awesome lyrics. My favorite tracks are: "The Time Has Come," "Cheap Whiskey," (with a message attached to it) "Walk that Line," "A Woman Knows," "True Blue Fool," "I Can't Sleep" and the album's strongest work is "That's Me" in my opinion. Martina McBride is an amazing singer!! This album is a great introduction to her craft. Make sure you add this cd to your collection!

5 out of 5 stars THE BEST DEBUT ALBUM YET!.......2002-06-01

FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE I WILL REMEMBER THE STORY TOLD BY MARTINA MCBRIDE ON CMT ABOUT HOW HARD IT WAS TO BREAK INTO THE MUSIC BUSINESS. SHE WENT ON TO TELL ABOUT HOW SHE PUT HER DEMO IN A PURPLE ENVELOPE AND MAILED IT IN. SOMEHOW IT GOT NOTICED, AND THE REST WAS HISTORY. NOW MARTINA MCBRIDE IS PROBABLY (OVERALL) THE BEST FEMALE VOCALIST TO COME OUT OF NASHVILLE, OR ANYWHERE FOR THAT MATTER. THIS DEBUT ALBUM HAS SOME REALLY GREAT SONGS ON IT. I AM HAPPY THAT I BOUGHT IT WHEN IT WAS FIRST ON THE MARKET. I HAVE NEVER KNOWN ANYONE TO BE DISAPPOINTED BY MARTINA MCBRIDE. MY ADVICE, BUY A COPY OF ALL THE MARTINA MCBRIDE ALBUMS, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPPOINTED!

5 out of 5 stars the greatest folk album of them all.......2007-05-10

oh anne briigs..she should be famous..the queen of british folk..a hero, or heroine to sandy denny,bert jansch,jimmy page who got backwater slide from her and you can hear where he got led zepplins more folkie edge from plus richard and linda thompson and martin mccarthy and davey graham and shirley collins.all of those have spoken about her huge influence on the sixties british folk scene..richard thompson even wrote the beautiful BEESWING for her i beleive ( though i maybe wrong).that was enough for me to rush out and buy this greatest of great "lost" masterpeices....quite seriously up there with joni and juddee sill and karen dalton as one of the all time great albums...beautiful looks are matched by rough organic salt of the earth singing and strumming and brilliant haunting songs..most written by her....i massively recommend this genius record..its why we bother to keep searching for great music..buy it yes please do.

5 out of 5 stars The picture.......2006-12-11

I haven't purchased the CD but the picture of the inside of a church on the cover is not of a British church, like one would assume since it says its a recording of British choirs. This picture is of Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Just thought i'd let you know. I'll be honest; I'm one to judge things by it's cover and if the company took such care to choose a 'British' church for their British choir CD, I'm willing to bet the music is equally well selected... I'm being sarcastic. But I gave the product 5 stars because I didn't want to hurt its ratings just because i'm cynical. But check out the church if you're ever in Montreal, it's truly beautiful... here I'm not being sarcastic.

5 out of 5 stars The Beauty of the Male Voice.......2006-05-04

I was fortunate to hear The Male Choir of St. Petersburg perform at the Peter and Paul Cathedral in Saint Petersburg, and was stunned by the power and beauty of their song. The director, aware that the deep, resonate voices struck a chord within each member of the audience, held the final note of each song until it echoed from the rafters. The songs are usually traditional Russian songs, but are not religious chants, as many people seem to expect - one song, called "O My Field" is an ode to a farmer's plot of ground. I recommend this album, a great opportunity to revel in the beauty of the male voice.

5 out of 5 stars Martina's First (and possibly best).......1999-08-25

I bought this on tape immediately after it came out--Martina's from my home state, and she was going to be opening for Garth (who still put out decent music at the time). If you are a fan of more traditional-sounding country, this is a near-perfect album. "I Can't Sleep" and "True Blue Fool" are wonderful songs, and her performance of them on record is amazing. "Cheap Whiskey" is a great honky-tonker, yet one with a message--and Martina's one of the few country singers today who can do so many "message" songs, without sounding self-righteous. "That's Me" is a lovely ballad, as is the Gretchen ("Independence Day") Peters-penned "When You Are Old." True, her later work is probably more "her," if that makes sense. She's definitely come into her own as a performer. In concert, she's greatly progressed from the singer I saw for free at the Wichita River Festival in early 1992 to the amazingly self-assured belter I saw last year at Lilith Fair. If you like real country, Martina, or both, give this one a try. It didn't sell too well, but honestly, it was probably just too different at the time for country radio (which generally sucks anymore, as a rule).

5 out of 5 stars A truly great country album!.......1999-05-14

Martina made a classic record with songs like "Cheap Whiskey", "True Blue Fool" and my favorite "When You Are Old". Her voice is unparalleled in country, and I feel she could sing any type of music.
