Buy this for one song.......2006-08-07
I don't get it! This guy's a guitar player but this is hardly a guitarnut work. Too much synthesizer and fake drums.
With the exception of the Kill Bill song (which is done 3 times here!) there is nothing worth repeated listening. The Immigrant Song cover is interesting but, in reality, it is a techno version of an otherwise classic song.
This scd is like movie soundtrack music. If you are a rock and roller or if you are looking for music similar to the Kill Bill song, you will be misled.
The artist is a guitar player using his musicianship to play very unguitar sounding music. This is for the dance music crowd!
Hotei Tomoyasu.......2006-03-03
Hotei Tomoyasu was a member of Boowy which was the most
famous japanese rock and roll band.
Himuro Kyousuke was the leader of Boowy.
Hotei mainly wrote musics of Boowy.
He is very tall man and good at electric guitar(Search at YouTube
if you have an interest).
He played his electric guitar music at Olympic opening before.
He wrote one of musics used in "Kill Bill".
Do you know that?
Electric Samurai.......2006-02-17
Very Good guitar with an Euro-Japanese ultra modern mix.
Way cool music. I actually use it to develop tempo for my golf swing...particularly the Kill Bill arrangement for "Without Honor or Humanity."
Holy crap this rocks!.......2005-12-20
This is one of the few albums where the term 'bad-ass' just isn't enough. This album is well worth it's cost for the title song along (Battle Without Honor Or Humanity (Kill-Bill theme)), except every song is nearly as good!
Imagine Rob Zombie doing the Immigrant Song. Yes. Seriously.
Great music - but watch out for the malware.......2005-11-18
Others have already commented on the music adequately, but there's something else on this album that you need to know about.
This is one of the now infamous Sony Rootkit albums. If you stick it in a PC it will attempt to autorun an installation which will hide many files from users and will add code that intercepts certain system calls and loads down the machine. Even worse the rootkit has been exploited by virus writers.
As of mid November 2005 (this week) Microsoft has declared this rootkit to be Malware and their anti spyware software will remove it whenever it encounters it.
There is a very small warning on the back of the box, a second warning says that on normal players, which can't install their malicious software, the disk may not play. Search for Sony, BMG and Malware to confirm the nature of this exploit.

It's Uncle Teddy, It Rocks, Shut Up, Case Closed!!!.......2004-09-20
Ted's Atlantic Record days are featured here. Why should you buy this...well, it's a good way to pick up Ted's best material throughout the 80's, in one fairly low priced set, instead of purchasing all his Atlantic releases. (Shame on you if you haven't done so already) The 80's was a difficult time for lot's of musical acts that were big in the 70's...Ted being one of them. In Ted's case, his political views, and his love for the outdoors (hunting) made it harder for Ted to get major airplay on most radio stations. Some of the songs from that period, do have a "toned down" approach, but there are several others here that show the ol' Nugent Rock & Roll style, with a major wad of stick it in your face attitude. I too would have liked to seen some material from "Spirit of the Wild", but there is enough here to satisfy the inner beast. Go out and purchase this CD. It's Uncle Teddy, It Rocks, Shut Up...Case Closed!!!
For Nugent completists only..........2002-08-20
"Noble Savage" is a mid-priced collection covering Ted's 80s output during his tenure at Atlantic Records. The 80s were a period of adjustment to say the least for many 70s rock acts, Nugent being no exception. On many of the tracks in this set Nugent is either trying to stay current or relive past glories, and often attempts both in the same song. This set is useful in anthologizing a difficult and often overlooked area in Nugent's discography.
After famously leaving Epic Records, dumping his management team, and parting ways with longtime drummer, producer, and collaborator Cliff Davies in one fell swoop in 1981, Ted signed with Atlantic Records. Tracks 1-6 on Disc 1 are taken from Ted's 1982 Atlantic debut, "Nugent." For this album, Ted brought back vocalist Derek St. Holmes after a period of four years apart in which St. Holmes attempted various band projects while Nugent retained the vocal services of one Charlie Huhn. Fans know St. Holmes as the throat behind such Nugent hits as "Just What the Doctor Ordered," "Hey Baby," and "Stranglehold."
Nothing on "Nugent" comes close to anything from that time, but "No, No, No" at least captures some of that earlier attitude. Unfortunately, "Tailgunner" is a very blatant attempt at re-writing "Stranglehold." The overtly political "Bound and Gagged," inspired by the nature of U.S./Mid-East tensions in the early 80s, is at best an exercise in cartoonish jingoism. Take this lyric for example: "All the way/We're the U S of A/Might is Right/If you're willing to fight, fight, fight..."
Ted returned in 1984 with "Penetrator" and with yet another new line-up. Quite possibly his most desperate sounding attempt to sound contemporary, on this album Nugent enlisted Billy Squier's rhythm section to form the core of the band and hired Lou Gramm sound-alike Brian Howe to handle vocals. The result sounds like a bad Foreigner cover band with Ted as its guitarist. (Howe of course would go on to make several similarly generic sounding recordings with a Paul Rodgers-less incarnation of Bad Company.) Ted sings a couple of tunes on the album but the horrid production manages to sink these tunes as well. "Thunder Thighs" and "Lean Mean Rock N' Roll Machine" also contain some of the ... sounding Nugent lyrics this side of the "Scream Dream" album. As well, the riff for "Thunder Thighs" is a not too subtle ...of "Free-For-All."
1986 saw Ted return to form somewhat with the release of "Little Miss Dangerous" -- arguably his strongest 80s release. The title-track is probably the best thing he has done in his post-Epic recording career. Another high-point is "Crazy Ladies," a speed-rocker in the same vein as "Cruisin'" and "Motor City Madhouse." Nugent is also known for having an interesting taste in choosing cover songs. His take on Burt Bacharach's "Little Red Book" is his most interesting yet. The keyboards and electronic drum sound date the song a bit, but it's pleasing for its comic value and audacity. The only drawbacks are the tunes sung by Dave Amato, who seems to serve as a Derek St. Holmes sound-alike here.
Ted reteamed with Tom Werman, the producer responsible for capturing "Ted Nugent," "Free-For-All," and "Cat Scratch Fever," for 1988's "If You Can Lick 'Em, Lick 'Em." The album is a fair, if unspectacular effort. One curiosity is "That's The Story of Love," a track Nugent penned with none other than Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora.
Strangely, the producer of this compilation totally avoided Ted's 1995 album, "Spirit of the Wild" in favour of three tracks from Nugent's 2001 live release, "Full Bluntal Nugity." The energy of these three tunes is far and above any of the other performances on the rest of this compilation and thus seems out of context here. Furthermore, "Full Bluntal Nugity" was Nugent's first release under his new contract with Spitfire Records, so a few tracks from "Spirit of the Wild" would have made more sense from a thematic standpoint. "Spirit of the Wild" is one of Ted's most consistent albums, and certainly meets the high-water mark of his Atlantic years set by "Little Miss Dangerous." Meanwhile, "Full Bluntal Nugity" deserves to be heard in its entirety.
"Noble Savage" will probably be of use to those Nugent fans who want to have the bulk of his Atlantic material in one low-priced collection. However, this isn't a collection that should be bought right away by those new to Ted. Instead, I recommend "Great Gonzos" or the double-set "The Ultimate Ted Nugent."

Album Description
Hilary Noble's music is a result of both strong roots in various jazz styles throughout the decades as well as deep ties to the island of Cuba. This influence is further demonstrated by Noble's role as a conguero, in addition to his saxophone and compositional skills, all showcased on this album. Sensitive interplay, combined with excitingly intense Afro-Cuban rhythms Noble refers to his music as "Latin free jazz."
Selling Points
An Afro-boppin extravaganza heavy on the Latin propensity for percussion and Noble's sonorous saxophone. Noble's choice of material-enhanced by the accompaniment of percussionist Bobby Sanabria, pianist John DiMartino, horn player Charles Neville, and bassist Boris Kozlov-is infused with a vast and colorful spectrum of sounds and composers. "Jelly Roll" is inspired by Mingus, who in turn was inspired by the pianist of the same name. "Rumb'azul" is a simple, melodic foray into Noble's open and refreshing approach to Afro-Cuban sounds. "Terra Australis" is Noble's nod to Australia, his ancestral home, while "Dream Dance," an Andy McWain composition is understated and gorgeous. Another release that furthers the reputation of Whaling City Sound as a fine purveyor of sophisticated songs.

Solid songwriting.......2001-04-25
It's obvious from this album that Mark Islam is a very good songwriter. The songs on The Recent Past are real, grownup songs from a proper songwriter.
I think Mark is more of a songwriter than a performer. His voice is not unappealing, but there's just something (which is hard to put my finger on) that leaves you with the feeling that while he's a good singer, he's not a great one. Perhaps it's the stage musical background that gives his voice a certain quality.
Standout track for me is "Peace on Earth", a song that really works. "Get Used To It", Islam's uncompromising "gay anthem" is also satisfying and affirming. Pity, in a way, that this is the only identifiably "gay" song on the album. "El Camino" is pretty good too, in an Art Garfunkel kind of way.
Musically, this album is fairly safe stuff: acoustic guitars and a competent backing band. I felt that it could have been more "characterful" though. In fact, my biggest criticism of the album is that it lacks that final degree of uniqueness that would make me give it 4 stars.
But, it's an interesting taste of things to come. I look forward to the next album.
Blend of personal, political, and, at times, spiritual.......2000-07-28
A very hard-to-find, obscure title. Had read its reviews in the alternative press and set about the task of trying to find this album in local shops. Should've known to look at Amazon first but am not accustomed yet to buying online. Liked the mix of songs as a collection in general and the musicianship in particular. Also liked the blend of the political and the personal and, at times, the spiritual. "Peace On Earth" sounds like a lost John Lennon track and is my favorite of the set. "Beat Up El Camino" sounds like Warren Zevon without the self-consciously sardonic sneer. Songs about women abound, and he is especially deft at writing about our hopes and dreams and struggles while always being respectful. It is that last word -- "respectful" -- that most applies to his songwriting: It is apparent that Islam has the utmost respect for his subject matter whenever he writes a song. This is admirable in itself, but he is also perceptive and insightful, which brings his characters to life.
GOOD DEBUT -- MAYBE A LITTLE LESS TWANG NEXT TIME.......1999-11-24
I am generally not a fan of either country or folk music. Yet, I like THE RECENT PAST, probably because it's neither. Its strength is Mark's astute songwriting. Like Carole King, he is a competent & engaging vocalist, although on some of the more boppy tracks, he sometimes sounds a little forced & strained, although not painfully so. Stand-outs are "Just One Paycheck Away" and "Beat-Up El Camino" and "Linda" for his intimate vocals as well as for his his masterful songwriting. "Get Used To It" is daringly confrontational and anthemic, with its driving rhythm track. This is not a straight-ahead country album (at least not in the mainstream sense), but he does at times get a little too twangy for my own personal tastes.
Unhappily, I found the CD disappointing........1999-05-26
I had read some reviews on Mark Islam's music at another web site. The description for the CD was misleading. He was compared to Bob Dylan and Warren Zevon. The music doesn't remind me of either artist. It may be a bit more like Lou Reed; although, not anywhere as intense. The delivery of the lyrics comes across as affected and possibly over dramatized.
I really wanted to love it but, sadly, I couldn't take it seriously.
Songs that somehow manage to SAY something.......1999-02-13
I bought this CD after having heard him on a couple of radio stations in Delaware & Philadelphia. His songs had an "attitude" that I thought was fresh, and this inspired me to seek this title out. I've been listening to this CD non-stop ever since I've gotten it. My commute to work is over an hour, and playing this CD in my car makes the trip seem shorter because most of the songs are uptempo with killer choruses (which I find lacking in so many of today's angst-ridden bands), and they are songs that actually have something to SAY in their lyrics. One of the things that I like best about his music is that it's "country" without being "too country," or "twangy." He's not cookie-cutter country. Rather, he's more like a country-influenced James Taylor. He's reminiscent of the Southern California country/rockers of the 1970's. This guy is one to watch.

Album Description
For his second album, performing songwriter Mark Islam once again demonstrates that he is part journalist, part introspective troubadour. He is by his own admission "first and formost a songwriter. I'm the guy who observes with pen in hand, recording my perceptions." The Delaware native serves up 12 songs, which he either wrote or co-wrote, based on his observations of life in Los Angeles. Like F. Scott Fitzgerald, who chronicled the golden era of Hollywood's Jazz Age in the 1920's, Islam spins engaging yarns about the denizens of La La Land: the upstarts, the scions of the celebrated, the fallen stars, and, on a more personal note, the quest for love in a transient culture with a diminished attention span.
Once again working with Edward Tree ("a producer's best friend"), Islam has recorded in analog to capture a warm, organic sound for his hybrid of country, rock, and folk. For the sessions, Islam & Tree assembled veritable legends, who, between them, have recorded and/or toured with the likes of Dwight Yoakam, James Taylor, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt, the Byrds, and Beck. And that's just the short list.
Customer Reviews:
A fine singer songwriter.......2002-03-11
I have to take issue to the review by James Calamera. He starts his review already stating that he does not like country music or anything twangy. So this great collection of work already has no chance of surviving in his eyes. He does a great disservice to James Calamera and those in the country genre. Now that this out of my system let me tell you this album is steeped in socially conscious lyrics and does not back off from real problems. Just as Dylan, Haggard, Lucinda Williams and Alanis Morissette, James writes and sings for the common folk. He has a haunting voice similar to Vince Gill that blends well with the lush steel guitars, and a solid rhythm section. This album is not for the faint of heart but it is worth listening to.
depressing, twangy & full of contempt.......2001-08-17
Let me first say that I am not a huge fan of country music. That said, I'll admit I found it hard to warm up to this album. I found the lyrics a bit self-righteous, and the music frequently very twangy and at turns extremely slow and depressing. There's Invisible Girl -a tune about an overweight girl... "In a crowded club / she knows she don't stand a chance / so she watches the purses / while her girlfriends get asked to dance." We Might Fall In Love starts as a gentle lullaby, but with painful rhymes like "Sinatra and Ella / Much more than nostalgia" you'll start wondering when the song will end. Then there's Poor Little Rich Kid, where we hear Islam's contempt for a Hollywood kid's life. If you can imagine Phoebe and Ross from the hit TV series 'Friends' collaborating on a country song, this would be it! "Sent to the most exclusive private schools / Where all he learned was that sour look / Poor little rich kid, miserable rich kid / Choking on that silver spoon he's fed with." The lyrics are tortuous, the tempo is painfully slow, and it's chock full of twangy country licks. There's also contempt in Gold Enough- about a successful woman whom apparently Islam has some grudge against. "Is the gold ever enough? / Does the cup ever hold enough? / Is it the Midas touch? / Or is it gilded rust?" If you can even make it to the end of the album, Natural Causes will leave you wondering how this guy got a recording contract, and why your pet rock did not. "He was found face down on the bathroom floor / Of his canyon house; he was 54 / Natural causes was the coronor's report / Natural causes was the coronor's report / Quoth the uber-diva du jour, nevermore..." I found this album almost painful to listen to. For myself, the best thing here is the Steve Walker painting on the cover. (Love the painting, but does it invoke the mood of the album?) I'd recommend avoiding this album unless you crave depressing music and vitriolic verse.
A gorgeous album.......2001-06-01
What a gorgeous album this is! I can picture so many of these songs finding their way into various movie soundtracks. Mark has such a poetic way with words, and complemented by Edward Tree's stellar production (including a who's who of veteran studio musicians), this album is just one beautiful moment after another. I had trouble getting past the first 5 songs, cause I just wanted to hear them over and over. My personal fave is "That Restless Feeling" - the melody just lilts and lingers on your mind. You just can't help but sing along. I would recommend this CD to anyone interested in hearing what a complete album should sound alike. Congrations to Mark on a wonderful project. :)

Customer Reviews:
SWEET!.......2006-03-30
This is the first Hotei album that I purchased but I must say that it is A MUST for any fans. It includes music from Kill Bill 1 and Samurai Fiction which have probably his coolest ever songs, in my opinion. If you've never heard of Tomoyasu Hotei, get this CD and you'll be hooked!!! His music is so AWESOME and this CD captures it greatly! HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

Before "Noble Savage", They Were EXORCIST!.......2006-10-02
Look, alot of you Virgin Steele fans already know that way back in 1985, David DeFeis & members of Virgin Steele, of this very album, basically took over and became for a short time a band named Exorcist. That album "Nightmare Theatre", was a thrash metal masterpiece, almost singlehandedly steering the musical style into more theatrical elements, and creating one classic of an album. Of course, Virgin Steele was more important to these guys, and after only one incredible album, Exorcist was left in the dust for Steele's more power metal, well, chessiness. Such a shame.
If Mr. David DeFeis ever reads this, then read this: Whatever it takes, get that Exorcist album a proper CD release PLEASE! I personally owned the mass produced bootleg CD, y'know the one that was mastered from a "vinyl" copy, for six years now, and I want it with the clarity it truly deserves! Your fans deserve to hear your 2000 track "Fire Of Ecstasy" as it was ORIGINALLY intended from way back in 1985 as "Call Of The Exorcist", as it was first written and recorded for the Exorcist album.
The two bands are so different, yet with the same guys from this very album, that if you heard Exorcist, you too would realize what this band "coulda" been. DeFeis, you got most of your catalog out there for fans, give 'em the lost (and possibly greatest) chapter. Please get "Nightmare Theatre" out there!
