A Personal Favorite---BUT..........2007-05-05

...THIS SEMI IS COPY PROTECTED. To get around the copy protection don't install the utility program. It won't play in Media Player, but you can use other programs to do everything. This is very similar to Nightwish's Century Child. The band weaves numerous classical chord structures throughout the disc. The band is very talented and they really do push the limits here. The selections range from Ice Queen to In Perfect Harmony which almost sounds like Kenny Loggins' Return To Pooh Corner. Personally, I don't care for the last 2 bonus cuts, but otherwise this is a very compelling release.

Okay........2007-03-02

Not WT's best by any means, but at least this album has personality unlike "The Silent Force". Theres a few good songs such as "Our Farewell", "Ice Queen", "Mother Earth" and "Caged". But the rest of the CD does not follow. "Perfect Harmony" sounds like a pre-school, sing-along song, and "Never-Ending Story" sounds like a folk song gone horribly wrong. All in all, the album isn't terrible...but it isnt the best.

"Mother Earth".......2007-01-31

This is an excellent album. If you are a fan of "metal only" this is probably not for you. It is fully orchistrated and highly theatrical. The musical quality is fabulous. This is a theme album that will strongly appeal to affectations other than Christian. It's hard to put this group into a catagory. Theatrical Goth Metal is the closest I can come to a description. I personally love this CD and feel it is a very strong addition to my collection of Heavy Metal that I've been buying since 1964.

Remarkable Discovery.......2007-01-04

My wife has been after me to buy this for what must be two years now, since she heard the title track on the Matt Drudge Show. I bought it as a slightly late birthday present, and she has listened to it at least three times. Wonderful stuff.

what is this junk?.......2006-11-10

I'll give you the bottom line up front. Sharon den Adel, the lead vocalist, while very talented is not not suited for this type of work. She is blatantly flat or sharp at varying aspects of Within Temptation's songs including "Mother Earth." They do not even have very catchy riffs. Don't buy their album. If you like metal buy metal. If you like emo...kill yourself. If you want to be rocked, either make your own music or find something that does not suck on the surface as well as below it.

It is really good it is one of my fav. band next to SLAYER and King Diamond

It's Friendlier like Moonboat.......2003-12-06

I Like This Album As Well as Moon Boat because they are both more nostalgic than Family Tree or Billy The Squid. I also Like Both Albums because they help me bring back memories of the time when on PBS They had the Blue P Head Logo with The Bell String Tune and the male announcer saying This Is PBS.

The second Tom Chapin in my collection (1st=Around the World) I got this at the library and fell in love with the Wheel of the Water song, plus Picnic of the World. Almost all the songs are good! Tom Chapin is great b/c his songs aren't annoying like many kid songs, and they have layers of nuance that will make my 2-year-old enjoy them for many years to come. Definitely worth having.

Here's an album that will produce Zzzs over fidgety, fretful little foreheads faster than you can piece together the second verse of "Hush Little Baby," and it will satisfy grownups in search of meditation music that's not too drippy. Close your eyes for Cesar Berlanga's peaceful, reassuring "Todo Ya Esta en Calma" (from Spain) or Steve Gorn's instrumental "Saraswati's Dream" (India), with its whispery bamboo flute and Dobros, and it's déjà vu, not just tranquility, that washes over you. Isn't this the same gorgeous stuff that transported you far from your troubles last time you indulged in aromatherapy? As with other titles in the series, a booklet complete with lyric translations, thoughtful commentary on each track, and the artist's e-mail address slips into its own attractively designed cardboard sleeve. The record's intended bragging point, of course, is its reach. A dozen or so languages deliver a single message--that music has the power to put us in touch with our nurturing sides. --Tammy La Gorce

Love love love this cd and have given it to all my friends who have children!

This CD is astoundingly Beautiful.......2003-03-09

What a jewel in the crown of Children's music. You just have to hear the song "Dormi, Dormi" and you will be hooked. It is just exquisitely beautiful. I have several CDs in this series, but this one takes the prize. This one and Papa's Lullaby are my favorites. GET THEM!

Not just for the little ones!.......2003-02-26

Although the word Lullaby might be connected with putting the young ones to bed, this collection of soothing bed-time music will appeal to all who desire a warm earthy soundscape to relex to. Hats off once again to Jeff & Russell Charno at Ellipsis Arts.

This is one of the best albums of any kind............2003-01-27

One of the best albums I have bought in many, many months. Saw it at ..., with several others in the series, and it spoke to me. The guy behind the counter played it for me and I had goosebumps from the first note. What a wonderful listening CD. I did not know it was a kids album until I got it home and read the back of the cover. Delicious, soft, world music. Your baby will be unable to resist the gentle whisper of these gorgeous melodies. As an adult, even more appreciative. Hats off to the company who put these out. How about an adult series??!!

Amazing Funk Metal........2007-01-08

I cannot begin to tell you how much I am grateful for picking up this album. It was originally not my intent on the day I walked into my local used cd store to find "Dig". I was actually looking for "Quicksilver Meat Dream" after hearing a few tracks on internet radio. Since I couldn't find that one that I was looking for I said, what the heck, so I picked it up. I was really suprised how I had gone in for their new album and fell in love with their first. The whole atmosphere of this album is excellent. The funk blues grungy style adds to the greatness with those emotional guitar solos like in the track "Universe in You". It reminds me just a bit of Pink Floyd when I hear it. Probably my favorite tracks are "Undone", "Lost My America", "Levitate", and "Universe in You". Here's my track ratings...

1. Mothers - 9/10
2. Levitate - 10/10
3. Rain Will Fall - 10/10
4. So Gently We Go - 10/10
5. Not Quite Sonic - 10/10
6. Production - 9/10
7. Lost My America - 10/10
8. No One - 10/10
9. Undone 10/10
10. Basketball - 9.5/10
11. And the Experience - 9.5/10
12. Universe in You - 10/10

Overall: 98% A

It's probably one of my most recent discoveries that I was amazed by. It's an all around excellent album if you are into Funk Metal style with a bit of Pink Floyd mixed in. It was an excellent addition to my growing collection.

One of the best rock cd.......2006-04-29

I am way too late in writing a review for this cd, but if you can find this cd, order it. This cd was IME's best. The singing, musicianship and song compositions are awesome. I always hear new elements in the songs everytime I listen. The band rocks in a way Red Hot Chili Peppers mixed with Soundgarden would - but that is a bad analogy. They are just enough jam/progressive without being overkill.

* * * * * 5 Stars

Standout jam band of the mid 1990's.......2006-03-03

It's quite unfortunate that the following has happened:

(1) I Mother Earth disbanded.
(2) I Mother Earth disbanded after receiving virtually no radio play.
(3) I Mother Earth disbanded after filtering through 2 lead singers, including one of the finest voices rock music has ever heard.
(4) Amazon is not selling this album.

But this is your opportunity to get one of the most underrated cds in rock music for incredibly cheap. Take a chance, buy it from Amazon's Marketplace, and you will not be disappointed.

Edwin & Company (Edwin made this band...not the other way around) provided a grunge obsessed half decade with some of the finest blues/jam/alternative rock...whatever you want to call it, it was (nay, it IS) great music. The tunes are incredibly infectious and catchy. Combined with Edwin's unique voice, IME produces a sound that was literally unlike any other band of the bleak mid 1990's that were dominated by Nirvana & company. Each and every song on this album is memorable, beginning with the instrumental, The Mothers, followed by the more commercially popular Rain Will Fall and Not Quite Sonic, right down to the diamonds in the "rough," No One, Undone and Basketball. The closest comparison that I can think of to a similar band in a similar era would be Candlebox. Songs like Rain Will Fall parallel the style of Arrow off of Candlebox's self-titled first release. But maybe I think that merely because I purchased both albums at the same time. IME enjoyed a certain level of popularity in 1994-1995 opening up for Dream Theater on their world tour, ultimately inspiring a future Dream Theater song. So if you're also a fan of Dream Theater, IME will not disappoint.

Quite frankly, I Mother Earth tops my list of the most underrated rock bands of all time. The brief time with Edwin will stand out as their most popular, most successful period, with Dig standing out as the better of the two releases with their former disgruntled singer (the other being Scenery and Fish...also a fine work). By no means is this album outdated or irrelevant today, in fact, Dig was very likely years ahead of its time. If released today, it may still be the uncovered gem that it was in 1993, or it may have commercial success. Either way, IME's Dig is a true must-have for fans of bluesy, catchy, rock music.

Nothing Compares to IME!!!!.......2005-08-14

I stumbled upon I mother earth cassette back in the old days when it first got released. I was at a tiny record store and every often I would check out new stuffs that were brought in by the owner of the store. He had no knowledge of music whatsoever. All he knows was to sell. Me on the other hand... saw this weird looking cover, a dog with an oxygen mask. I was like I Mother Earth??? What is this??? In those old days I remembered, you could test the cassette at the counter and listen to the 1st song briefly... So I brought it to the owner and test it out.. To my surprise this record was an entirely different feel, atmosphere all together... The 1st song was a melodic intro and then blast in with the 2nd song.. I heard this briefly at the store and was like wow!! Alright I want it.. I took a chance not knowing the entire album was good and was to my taste I was mainly influence by 80's hard rock / hair metal type of sound and band. When I got home and listen to the entire album.. it was not bad there was couple of songs which I didn't like because it was entirely different from the hard rock sound that I was used too.... But I gave it chance and grew to love every song on the album.....I can say I was open enough to accept a brand new band with a distinctive sound and feel.... I Mother Earth blended with tons of tribal drumming and sound.. Their song writing was totally different from the 80's hair metal band...I was always seeking new band with new sounds and new talent. And here I am with I Mother Earth.. The best song that really caught me was Levitate, Rain Will Fall, Not Quite Sonic and so forth... It was a blast listening over and over again. And it grew each time to listen to it.. Very melodic in a different way..I also remembered I had played drums a few years back and was really into hrad rock style.. Then when I learned and played I Mother Earth's song I was completely drumming in a different style.. I had to learn so many parts to their songs... It is not the typical hard rock feel anymore but tribal feel to it.... More toms playing instead of snare and kick drum... Also the song Rain will Fall had a double bass parts towards to end.. it was a blast learning and playing it....it had a totally different feel when the snare comes in.. I love it so much.. and now to this year 2005 I can look back and say that I had an awesome time being influenced by I Mother Earth... To those of you who are unsure of this band... What I had to say is just be open.. and listen to the music.. Let the music digest in you and feel it....It stand the test of time!!! Highly Recommended!!

I Mother Earth - 'Dig' (Capitol).......2004-12-04

Highly appreciated sounding debut CD from this Canadian-based four piece.I Mother Earth plays a genre of psychedelic-metal that will put some of us listeners into somewhat of a hypnotic trance.A couple of cuts I thought stood out were the space-funky "Rain Will Fall",the metallic "Levitate","The Mothers" and "So Gently We Weep"(this track sort of reminds me of the Doors "The End").Just might appeal to fans of Orange 9mm,early Korn,Sublime and Animal Bag.Worth checking out.

Superb collection.......2007-03-27

I don't know about the group Mother Earth and have never heard them. I heard Tracy Nelson sing the song "Mother Earth" on my local public radio, loved it and wanted to learn more about the song and the artist. So I took a chance and ordered this CD--WOW! There are few female vocalists I like who have the chops and soul and "guts" to put out an album where I like the whole thing instead of just a song or two. This has 17 tracks, quite amazing in itself, and almost all of them are deeply moving, original and very soulful renditions. Get this album if you like thoughtful, well crafted blues, you just can't go wrong with this collection and Tracy's voice. Classic, classic, classic.

Trouble with the CD?.......2006-08-11

Love the CD. Just want to know if anyone else has trouble playing it on his/her computer. I've begged and borrowed 3 different copies, and I've had trouble with all 3. Don't want to buy it if I can't play it on my computer. Comments/ideas?

Not exactly Living with the Animals.......2002-11-10

Here is a lovely taste of Mother Earth, deservedly focusing on their terrific lead singer Tracy Nelson. A morsel worth having if only for the few tracks taken from their seminal "Living with the Animals" album, which should have been re-released on CD long ago. This is the work that catapulted Mother Earth into the forefront of folk/rock stardom ...

Essential Tracy Nelson.......2002-08-03

Back in the day, the Mother Earth album 'Living With the Animals' rarely left record player for more than a day - but it was somewhat a difficult record to listen to, because I had to keep jumping up to skip tracks. The album was schizophrenic in the extreme with a split personality that was sometimes Tracy Nelson country-gospel-influenced blues and the rest of the time so rather uninspired pop-rock by the band's guitarist. I loved, loved, loved the former, and felt rather ambivalent about the latter. This album contains only the former.

There is so much good material here I don't know where to begin. The album contains almost all the Tracy-led cuts from 'Living With the Animals' and that is worth the price of admission. The two cuts with Mike Bloomfield (Butterfield Blues Band, Super Sessions) guesting contain some of his very best pure blues playing. There are constants in the quality of Tracy's voice, and in the country-gospel-blues blend that shapes the sound of all the material. Also, there is much pleasure to be found in hearing the improvement and changes that time brought to her vocal and keyboard performances, since the album is reasonably chronological. Finally, the notes, by Al Kooper, are detailed and informative.

I thoroughly enjoy this compilation, listen to it all the time (again, 30 years later) and constantly astound friends who wonder how they could have overlooked such an impressive artist all this time

I'm in love with Tracy.......2001-12-30

I had tracy nelson and mother earth about 6 different times back in the 60's and 70's Great studio musicians mikal bloomfield and al kooper{super sessions}. Green album on mercury label. But when I heard her belt out the song "Mother Earth" I would get \goose bumps when she sang we got to GO backto mother earth. So when I saw this best of album had that cut I was happy,cant wait to get it, and my goose bumps ! Ive always said she blew janice joplin out of the water! come to think of it I had no problem replacing living with the animals holding on to that one album was hard thought I was the only tracy fan out there? peace out

Without a doubt one of the BEST albums from the era. Long lost and now putting to shame anything currently out there. I love thus album.

An Old Slice of Life, Started My love of Blues.......2005-08-23

As some of you know from my other reviews I am a tool columnist and writer but I am a song writer also, plus I play Blues Guitar. Early in my teens I was listening to some pirate radio in the SF Bay area and heard this album the first time it played on air. I haunted every record shop for miles around and finally ordered it from a more that hip shop in Palo Alto CA. Those vocals of Tracy and that imaginative Marvel song that should be in every new Comic book remake movie were haunting. I lost the album to a thief in the late 1980's and I only had a very old tape I made of it that had been played too many times.

What a Joy to have the Album again, I had tears of joy listening to Tracy belt out Mother Earth. Since that Album I have seen Tracy perform live many times and I bought her newer albums like I was addicted to her voice. More than any other blues performer, Tracy made me practice my blues guitar solos and sing. Now that album that started my love of blues is back in my arms. Sure I heard a lot of the Delta blues greats but Tracy made me fall in love with her voice and persona.. If I were given a choice of meeting Eric Clapton, B.B. King or Tracy Nelson I would choose Tracey Nelson hands down. Tracy has some very good other albums but this Album changed my life forever so as far as I am concerned it is my number one album.

If you are looking for perfection then this Album may disappoint you but if you are looking for a model record that changed the way white America looked at the Blues art form then this stands as a testament to that change. I finally have my album back that I missed and mourned for, for years. After all these years I can play Blues and sing some of the classic blues songs but not without Tracy there by my side pushing me on. Thank you for releasing this on CD, I am a teenager again and more in love with the blues than ever.

Second Best to "Dig".......2007-02-04

10 years after the bands first release, with a new singer, and a whole new style IME still manages to release an album that actually gives "Dig" a run for its money. This is probably my second favorite release by the band. It's too bad they are no longer together or I would be anticipating their next release. The bands style is definatly not like it once was. The atmosphere is a lot darker and more Tool-ish. I think the new singer has a lot to do with that. The band did do a cover of 46 & 2. Anyway, even with the new style it's still amazing. I was so happy when I somehow managed to find this album for $8 new. The cd is great from beginning to end and doesnt stop impressing the listener. The standout tracks would probably be "I Is Us", "Hell & Malfunction", "No Coma", and "Meat Dreams". Really the whole cd is great though. My only complaint is that the last track "Passenger" is just too short and the only average track is "God Rocket". Here's the ratings for everything...

1. 0157: H7 - 10/10
2. Choke - 9/10
3. I Is Us - 10/10
4. God Rocket (Into the Heart of Las Vegas) - 8/10
5. Like the Sun - 10/10
6. Hell & Malfunction - 10/10
7. Soft Bomb Salad - 9/10
8. Juicy - 10/10
9. No Coma - 10/10
10. Meat Dreams - 10/10
11. Passenger - 10/10

Overall: 96% A

It's just a really well created release by a band that has changed a lot. You can definatly see where they get most of their inspiration from now. I personally think it's the second best release that comes really close to being just as good as "Dig". Anyone who is into Tool should probably give this a try, and maybe even check out their old stuff as that is easier to get a hold of.

Hella sweet.......2006-09-01

This seems pretty different from other IMO efforts. However, it is definitely worth the risk, if you are used to the old IMO. It does take a couple listens, but some of the tracks really blow me away.

Amazing........2006-03-19

I bought this CD the day it came out a few years ago. I loved it the moment I turned it on.

I've always been a fan of I Mother Earth, but I'm not one to like an album just because I like the band. I am a classical pianist, violist, conductor and choral singer, as well as a composer of music in all genres, including rock, pop and jazz. I also have played drums and bass in rock bands for ten years. This album is the most artistically satisfying rock CD I've ever encountered, and is never for a moment pretentious (Tool, Mars Volta, et al).

If you're a lover of "rocking out", then buy this album. If you're a lover of music in any genre, or even someone who truly appreciates artistic intent and values, then buy this album.

I especially love the track "God Rocket". Dire realism combined with the highest level of optimistic creativity...

A real grower........2006-01-21

This album is nothing like any other IME album. I didn't like it on the first listen. I admit I didn't listen to all of the tracks though.

These guys have clearly been listening to Tool and other progressive bands since they did their last album. Songs like Hell and Malfunction (which I *never* get tired of), God Rocket and I Is Us are just stunning. There isn't a bad moment on this album. If you want something to mosh to in the car, try "Choke". There is some radio friendly songs - Like The Sun and No Coma in particular (the latter has echoes of The Killers - two full years before that band released their album). I Is Us packs incredible tension only to release it in bursts.

I'm not normally one to rave about albums, but yeah, if you like electronic-infused rock with a hint of progressive metal, get this one. If you don't, you probably won't like it.

Best Since Edwin.......2005-08-20

This is IME's second effort since the departure of Edwin, and is by far better than Blue, Green, Orange, although all IME is good! This album grew and grew and grew on me, and will be in my CD collection forever. The intro to Hell & Malfunction is brilliant. This band would be superstars if their music was played in the States.....our loss I guess! Don't give up IME!! Are you Masogynous??

Group 1850 - 'Agemo's Trip To Mother Earth' (Rotation).......2007-05-02

Originally released in 1968, looks to be the Dutch psych band's first of three albums. To me, it sounded a lot like the first two Pink Floyd's lp's. Not that I'm complaining, mind you. 'Alemo's Trip' is a good find. It's noted as being one of the most accomplished psychedelic works from that era. Couple of the tunes here that impressed me the most were "Little Fly", "You Did It Too Hard", "Refound" and most of this CD reissue's nine bonus tracks I liked as well. Line-up: Peter Sjardin-flute&vocals, Dave Duba and Daniel VanBerger-guitars, Dolf Geldof-bass and Martin Duynhoven-drums. A should-have.

Pretty dated but full of nice hot licks nonetheless.........2006-10-24

For those listeners who simply can't handle multi-lingual stream of consciousness lyrical intrusions into the musical hot licks, this CD should be avoided. For those who don't mind a little Timothy Leary along with the tunes, this will be just fine. The cover art shows a large group of individuals across several generations, commune style, but basically Group 1850 was a five piece, although I suppose some of those pictured may be significant others doubling as backup singers, accompanists, etc. The playing is indeed very hot in most places, but it may take some patience to get there since the chants are pretty heavy near the beginning of the work.

One of the most awesome Psychedelic albums ever!.......2006-08-29

I couldn't agree more with the reviewer from Woodland Hills that this is one of the all time best psychedelic albums ever! I too have heard quite a few psychedelic albums over the years, and I decided to buy this CD just based on reading the reviews here on Amazon, and wow, am I glad that I got this because it's a masterpiece! I've been playing guitar myself for over 44 1/2 years, and this has some of the most psychedelic and awesome fuzz-guitar playing you'll ever hear! Sure there's some pretty trippy, bizarre, and even strange things going on during the long track called "I Put My Hands On Your Shoulder," but the rest of this album, along with a ton of bonus tracks, makes this CD a great one to have in your collection if you dig 60's style psychedelic rock. I can't really say that this sounds like Pink Floyd or any other group, they really are a combination of so many different sounds and groups it's hard to categorize them, but I think when fans of Psych music hear this, they will be blown away, I sure was! Get this CD, it is a true classic and masterpiece! Glenn Signal Hill,CA

Addicting psychadelia.......2006-08-05

Imagine Mothers of Invention mixed with Lee Hazlewood's Cowboy in Sweden choruses, with drops of Electric Prunes, Pearls Before Swine, drops of 60's garage psy-rock, a bit of Gong and you almost get what goes on this record. And for me, one of alltime best songs - Reborn. I did!

Universal People.......2006-01-01

Rare dutch psych band that where quite sophisticated and unique. Many have compared this to early Pink Floyd, but I hear more of a Mother's of Invention influence if anything. Actually, this band very much has their own sound but the silliness and heavy cut-and-paste usage remind a little of zappa. The album itself would actually warrant four and a half stars, but the Rotation CD version rates a little lower because of the shoddy packaging. There are many extra tracks which is nice for the price, however.

Nicely Produced, but beware of the Region 2 DVD.......2007-07-14

Great production and much nicer cover art than strandard edition IMO. As an import disc, the DVD is coded for Region 2, so it won't work in most USA DVD players. I was able to download a trial version of the DVD X Player from DVD X Studios (a region-free player for PCs) and was able to view the DVD just fine.

WITHIN TEMPTATION RULES.......2006-02-12

You will love anything this group does; Sharon has the voice of an Angel, and the music can send you through a whirlwind of emotions in a matter of seconds. There is a song for everyone on every album! You will never be dissapointed with anything Within Temptation does I gaurantee it!

Within Temptation ~ Mother Earth.......2005-05-11

I'm a big fan of melodic/symphonic metal but one thing I hate about the genre is how everyone starts sounding uncannily alike after awhile. The striking cover art is what initially drew me to Within Temptation but what I discovered was far more than just visual splendor. I was treated with a refreshing yet similar take that's unique yet familiar, if that makes any sense. They stand out somehow and aren't just another Nightwish clone, and yet they both coincide as equals when it comes to brilliance. Hailing from the Netherlands their music can best be described as Gothic folk rock. I know a lot of bands are labeled as such these days but few actually live up to the diverse title given them. Within Temptation's "Mother Earth" however does. The creative lyrics each tell an interesting story and are told, interweaved, with irresistibly hooking melodies. Sharon den Adel also has one of the most captivating voices I've ever heard. In a way she reminds me of Christina Scabbia from Lacuna Coil, but only because they both manage the ethereal with a flare of attitude so well. I become mesmerized every time I hear her sing and very few vocalists can give me chills like she can; especially on "Our Farewell" which is one of the saddest, heart-renchingly beautiful rock ballads in the history of music (IMO, anyway). It's about losing a loved one, wondering how you'll be able to move on without them, and then realizing they'll always be with you and that this isn't the end... Other favorites are "Ice Queen", "Caged", "Dark Wings", "Restless", and "Deceiver Of Fools", which reminds me of something you'd hear on a Lord of the Rings soundtrack... That is until the crushing guitars come in...

'Mother Earth' is my first but certainly not my last album from Within Temptation, and while their sound here is mostly Gothic folk rock, as I said before, the live tracks "Enter" and "The Dance" indicate a darker, rougher, less folksy sound on other endeavors.

There's a bonus DVD featured here too of the songs "Never-Ending Story", "Caged" and "Mother Earth" in concert, as well as the video for "Mother Earth" and a backstage glimpse into their 2003 European tour which is surely a pleasure to watch for fans both old and new of this incredibly gifted band. I must warn those who are buying this as an import, though, because the disc isn't formatted to work on all DVD players.

Symphonic Etheral Metal at it's BEST !!.......2004-12-15

If W/T doesn't have a concert in the USA soon , I'm gonna splurge for plane tickets !! It's not just the haunting vocals (and eyecandy) of Sharon den Adel, the metal with symphony is awesome too !
They are a perfect addition to my Beseech,Doro,Nightwish,Lacuna Coil,Darkwell collection .
