Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

5 out of 5 stars Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

5 out of 5 stars Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

5 out of 5 stars Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

5 out of 5 stars The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra needs a guitar player!.......2006-11-09

Granted, they only need it for one composition (the last one, "The James Bond Theme") but still, without the guitar it's just not the same. Barry didn't compose this one so I suppose it was a bonus and I shouldn't complain, really. The rest of the music on all the CDs is fantastic. Some of the stuff I had heard before without realizing who had composed it. Very enjoyable, to say the least.

5 out of 5 stars Persuaders Theme!.......2006-03-02

Buy it for the Persuaders theme, probably the best TV theme song ever written.

5 out of 5 stars A Variety Of Classics!.......2005-12-06

John Barry has been composing film scores for over forty years and this is only scratching the surface of his productions. Never mind that the entire set is recorded by the Prague Philharmonic; it's pure to Barry's themes. While John Williams compositions ("Star Wars", etc.) are wild and flamboyant and Jerry Goldsmith's (Hoosier's, etc.) are mood pieces, John Barry crosses over all barriers and is amazingly diverse. Barry has recorded most of the exciting James Bond themes, melodramatic classics like "The Lion In Winter' and moody theme hits like "Midnight Cowboy". He also tugs at the heartstrings with compositions from, "Somewhere In Time", "Frances" and "Out Of Africa". He varies his themes for all types of films and few composers capture it so well.

There is over four hours of music in this set with a colorful and informative booklet.

5 out of 5 stars Incredible Barry Collection.......2004-03-11

Any fan of movies will absolutley love this collection. Being a movie buff I couldn't wait to get this boxed set. Knowing Barry from all the James Bond movies, I did not realize his involvement with so many others. The orchestra is magnificent in all these themes. I'm listening to "High Road to China" right now and I'm drifting in the clouds in a Tiger Moth with Tom Selleck and Bess Armstrong. If you are familiar with a movie it will definitely have you seeing it again, if not the scores are still beautiful. Any fan of classical music will be pleased as well. Travellers will defintitely enjoy it for a long drive. I know from when I use to travel that music like this made the miles float by faster. I highly recommend these four CDs even if you just know a handful of the songs.

5 out of 5 stars " one of cinema's greatest composers...John Barry".......2001-07-06

This collection of four compact discs...are worth their weight in GOLD! Barry creates visual moods for each film he scores...romantic, sentimental, action, adventure, suspense and mystery...the list could go on. Strings, brass and lush-velvet arrangements overlay each cue in his distinctive style of legendary scoring...we have ~ "John Barry:The Collection", Silva Screen's release traces 40 years of film music, featuring "The City Of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra" ~ conducted by Mr. Nic Raine (outstanding)..."Crouch End Festival Chorus" ~ David Temple, Choir Master...perform 56 selections, over four hours of symphonic suites with a full orchestra sound...all individually wrapped-up into one neat package...just the way "film-score-buffs" like 'em!

Must ask the following to take a bow ~ James Fitzpatrick (compilation producer), always in their pitching, Reynold da Silva (executive producer), Nic Raine (conductor, arranger, orchestrator & associate producer), a tremen!dous asset to every project he undertakes...and the man who made it all possible...a legendary icon always leading the way in film scoring ~ JOHN BARRY!

Total Time: 258:76 on 56 Tracks ~ SSD-1128 ~ (2001)

You might try other albums from Silva Screen, all worthy of a good listen ~ "The Essential James Bond" (SSD-1034)..."Bond:Back In Action" (SSD-1100)..."Bond:Back In Action 2" (SSD-1119)..."Zulu" (SSD-1095)..."Raise The Titanic" (SSD-1102)..."Walkabout" (SSD-1120)...check out my reviews on amazon.com/music.

5 out of 5 stars The Heat Is So Right.......2007-04-12

I'm typing this as I listen to the gloriousness that is Pat Benatar's debut album. From the thumpity thump drum beat in the opening number "Heartbreaker" to the ending guitar squeeze of "So Sincere", Pat has it going on in every single note of these 10 excellant songs. It was 1979 and the city was steamy and so was Patty Patty - just look at that cover; and the cover actually summed up the music you hear. The city groove of the title cut with its sultry lyrics and Pat's high octave kicking in, it's one of those overlooked tracks of such a great career; the new wave crashes in on here as well most notably on the single "We Live For Love" and the Nick Gilder cover "Rated X", but rock is there for our girl including her version of Mellencamp's "I Need A Lover" which is so much better here than his version, I don't care if he did write it. The fact a woman is not only singing lines like "I need a lover who knows the meaning of hey hit the highway/ someone who'll thrill me then just go away" but that she actually hisses the vocal. This is a woman you don't want to mess with but such a heat wave of sensuality, you would want to try it. There's cabaret lounge thrown in on "My Clone Sleeps Alone" which in turn belts into a rocking little ditty by the end of those 3 and a half minutes. The uber rock ballad "Don't Let It Show" breaks into the uber rock domination of "No You Don't" with barely a breath. Just listen to some of these songs and Pat's delivery on them - one second of hoarse foulness and one second later a high note of epic proportions all over a cover of new wave nuances and rocking guitars. In The Heat Of The Night is one of my all time favorite albums of all times and everyone should hear it. Now the whole album is recently reissued by Chrysalis in glorious sounding form - though the artwork sucks (is it so hard to give the woman a little extra like at least a picture on the jewel case!) so you owe it yourself and also for all those girls with their fists in the air who won't be taken advantage of, to get yourself a copy of this CD. Perhaps there should be a new motto "What would Benatar do?" Can you see it? Numerous stickers with WWBD? I think I'm calling someone about that.

5 out of 5 stars Benatar's first a great one.......2007-03-19

Pat's crystal clear voice is striking and her range is fantastic on her first offering. Hearing it on CD even more amazing. Guitar solos are great without being overly done. "I Need A Lover" is a little commercial-sounding compared to the rest of the material. Some of the compositions that are minimal on instruments showcase her talent (the title track). If you've never heard Benatar before, give it a listen. It might make you an instant fan and wanting more.

5 out of 5 stars AMAZING Sound Quality = 5 Stars!.......2007-01-29

Wow! What an upgrade! I could go into many details as to why this is an excellent album in terms of arrangement, production, and lyrics. However, my 5-star review is based on the sound quality alone. It is simply stunning! It's amazing to hear so much crisp, clean sound tweaked out of 1979 recording. Like the other 2006 Benatar remasters -- 'Precious Time' (1981) and 'Crimes Of Passion' (1980)-- mastering engineer Mark Chalecki has restored 1979's 'In The Heat Of The Night' to new heights, sonically. Now we finally get a hint as to what the album sounded like when originally recorded! Previous masters have really left the album flat and empty, sonically. Now is the chance to hear it like it was meant to be heard. Rock at it's best!

Check out "My Clone Sleeps Alone" with it's soft piano intro. Then, suddenly, boom! Those roaring drums and electric guitars come flying at you! This is my favorite track to listen to when experiencing the remastering upgrade. The stereo field has been greatly expanded here, bringing depth and width to the audio. IT SOUNDS AMAZING!!! Or what about "Heartbreaker" and "I Need A Lover"? I could ramble on and on about the sound on every track. I can't believe how good this album sounds! Mark has really made these tracks shine like never before!

I highly recommend this release in addition to the other 2006 remasters if you wish to hear Pat like you've never heard her before. Now, Capitol, can we get the next batch of remasters rolling along?

5 out of 5 stars Pat Benatar's Debut Is Great.......2006-10-29

On IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT, Pat Benatar premieres her unique blend of Ian Hunter-style glam, Steve Miller-esque pop-rock, Cars-type new wave, and Ted Nugent-influenced heavy metal, with outstanding results, creating a sound that was revolutionary for a woman at the time. All of the songs are great, with particular standouts being the new-wavish "We Live For Love" and the hard-rock overdrive of "Heartbreaker." The next two albums would be just as good, but here, she starts at the top of her game, making it clear that this was a woman who was not going to let men push her around, a trait admirable even today.

4 out of 5 stars Finally - - - - remastered.......2006-09-09

I have been waiting for a long time to see the Pat Benatar catalogue remastered, and finally, it looks like they will get to all of them. I think it has been so disappointing to go into any music store for years, and usually only find the one-disc version of the greatest hits for Pat Benatar. Hopefully we will see every one of her discs freshly remastered, since I feel it is worth having more than just her greatest hits, not to mention that every compliation released (1,2,or even 3 discs) always seems to be missing something.

This disc includes her breakthrough rocker "Heartbreaker", along with the single, "We Live For Love" but as with most of her albums the rest of the songs are very worth hearing. On this album, the styles from song to song may seem a bit scattered, as Neil Geraldo hadn't yet dominated the writing credits, and perhaps they hasn't established exactly where a young Pat Benatar may find her biggest fan base (rock, punk, pop?)

Fortunately she seemed to be able to handle the varied styles nicely, and all the songs have that 'Mike Chapman' sound, and sound better than they have ever since being remastered.

I recommend buying all the Benatar remasters as they are released, since you just can't capture her career nicely in a compilation as I previously mentioned.

My biggest complaint however, is the treatment of the packaging. Wow, could they have spared any less? No bonus tracks, no extra pages in the booklet, no extra liner notes, not even a new paint job for the face of the CD? (see the Blondie, or Heart, or Elvis Costello remasters, just to name a few, guys!!!)

Album Description

Doris Day takes the Tony award-winning Broadway smash The Pajama Game and transforms it into one of her most memorable screen hits.

Steam Heat, Hey There and Hernando's Hideaway are but a few of the show-stopping songs featured on this historic soundtrack. 11 tracks are included on this lovingly remastered edition with a bonus track, Man Who Invented Love by Doris Day with Frank DeVol and His Orchestra. 2001 reissue.

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Doris Day - Perfect Casting!.......2007-05-09

For once they got it right. Doris Day being cast as Babe Williams was the smartest thing Warner Brothers ever did. Of course, the original idea was to have Frank Sinatra to take over the male lead in the movie version. Sinatra couldn't accept, but if he had, Janis Paige would have played Babe. With no Sinatra as a boxoffice draw, Jack Warner needed a star. Doris Day was promised sole star billing above the title if she accepted the picture. Janis was out and John Raitt (top-billed on Broadway) was in, but would be billed below the title in the movie version.

Usually, Hollywood gets it wrong. They denied Ethel Merman for "Gypsy" and hired Rosalind Russell, who could not sing; they bypassed Julie Andrews for "My Fair Lady" and hired movie star, Audrey Hepburn, who also couldn't sing and Carol Lawrence was told "you're out and Natalie Wood is in" when "West Side Story" came to the screen. Natalie couldn't sing either. Marnie Nixon's voice was used for both Wood and Hepburn and Lisa Kirk's voice subbed for Russell.

With Doris Day, they got everything: a top movie star, an expert singer , a trained dancer and skilled actress. Plus, she was beautiful and took full command of the role of Babe. I just wish they had kept "The Man Who Invented Love" in the picture. I've never seen a Day musical in which she didn't have a couple of ballads of her own. In this film, they attempted to right that wrong with "Invented Love" but dropped it so that Doris could reprise "Hey There" for historical purposes. They wanted Day on film singing that legendary song.

Love love love this CD. I am so glad the movie version of Pajama Game with Doris Day came out. I have been a fan of this movie since we did the musical when I was in high school in 1980. The movie soundtrack is so much better than the Broadway Recording. Janis Paige just doesn't sing as well as Doris Day. I highly recommend this CD if you are a fan of musicals and Doris Day.

5 out of 5 stars Energy To Burn.......2006-07-31

I know that the revival of "The Pajama Game" is a hit-of-the-moment on Broadway, but I still recommend that fans of the revival check out the soundtrack to the 1957 film version of the show. Warner Brothers treated the property in a more respectful manner than was the norm and even imported most of the New York to Hollywood to recreate their roles "in perpetuity." The new addition was box office magnet Doris Day who had already proven in "Calamity Jane" that she could bring rambunctuous charm to the musical. Hearing Day and John Raitt putting "There Once Was A Man" through its paces can still send a shiver down my aging spine.

4 out of 5 stars Doris Day leads cast in lively film verson of Broadway hit.......2004-02-08

Your choice between the original Broadway cast and the movie soundtrack depends largely on your preference for either Janis Paige on the former and Doris Day on the latter.

Day sings it better, however the Broadway cast album has better sound as well as an overture and three songs, "A New Town is a Blue Town", "Her Is" and "Think of the Time I save" were dropped from the movie.

The soundtrack album, however, includes extended dance music from "I'll Never Be Jealous again" and "Once-a-year-day" and despite the boxy Warner Bros soundtage sound, the music is given a lively performance.

5 out of 5 stars I'm only 16 and I love the movie and soundtrack.........2003-12-08

This is an exellent soundtrack baby. Doris Day has the purrfect vocie, full righ and clear. I'm only 16 and realize taht Doris posseses the finest vocie of any female on the planet. If you like the mvoe or Doris' singing you will LOVE this cd.

5 out of 5 stars A Musical Treat.......2006-01-08

"The true mission of the violin is to imitate the accents of the human voice, a noble mission that has earned for the violin the glory of being called the king of instruments." ~ Charles-Auguste De Bériot ~

Yehudi Menuhin and Stéphane Grapelli together had made some of the most beautiful music ever-recorded. And I believe that this is one of the many successful albums they recorded together. In this recording, both violinists have showed their excellent musicianship and interpretative eloquence as well, making it one of my most cherished CDs from my collection.

These are the main ingredients of a perfectly-made CD for your listening pleasure: mix violins, piano, bass and drums together, combine two terrific violinists, season with the best melodies in the 20s, 30s and 40s from Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern, Cole Porter and Rodgers & Hart. Add the musical talents of Nelson Riddle, Max Harris, Martin Taylor, Eddie Tripp, Alan Clare and the rest of the studio musicians. Now all you have to do is to sit back, relax and savor these stunning melodies coming from your CD player. Listen to it in full-volume and fill your music room with the sheer beauty of these classics.

One of my favorite musical instruments is violin. With its four strings, it gives a whole wide range of musical versatility and I simply love the fascinating sound it produces.

My personal highlights are the best tunes from Jerome Kern - "The Way You Look Tonight" (Nelson Riddle arranged this particular track and conducted the Woodwind and Brass section), "A Fine Romance," "Pick Yourself Up," "Why Do I Love You?" and "All The Things You Are."

My choices from Irving Berlin's gems are - "Isn't It A Lovely Day?" featuring the great artistry of Nelson Riddle in arranging and conducting, "Cheek To Cheek" and "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm."

The Cole Porter repertoire represented his musical sophistication in "Night And Day," "I Get A Kick Out Of You" and "Just One Of Those Things."

The choice cuts from the talented and creative team of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart are "My Funny Valentine" and "Thou Swell."

Listening to this CD is so delectable and equivalent to having my favorite dessert - be it Tiramisu, New York Cheesecake, Black Forest Cake, Chocolate Soufflé, Créme Brulee, Chocolate Mousse or Chocolate-Coated Strawberries! ;)

A musical treat.

2 out of 5 stars Disappointed.......2007-03-24

I don't understand where they went a rye but somehow todd did. I am a die-hard Toadies fan I mean I love that band so I assumed I would love his new band Burden Brothers. But to my amazement I hated most of this album it is too soft for me and sounds way too pop rock radio compliant. Bring back your Toadies rawness and this band will be alright.

5 out of 5 stars This is "Real Rock Music".......2006-12-18

Finally we have some "Real Rock Music" to listen to besides all this fake stuff that's out there. I've even converted my teenage kids over to the Burden Brothers. Vaden Lewis has amazing vocal command on this CD, and all the songs are awesome. This CD is definately going to be in my top 10 of all time. If you like to crank up your rock music and listen to some awesome riffage and great lyrics......this CD is for you. You won't be disappointed!

4 out of 5 stars Great Dallas band.......2005-09-16

This is a quick review.....If you like the Toadies, then you'll love this band. They have an "in your face" edge to them but still show a softer side as well. They show that they have a great style of music and a depth in their lyrics. Very nice band to become acquainted with on a regular basis.

4 out of 5 stars Exactly Like a Toadies Album.......2005-04-23

If you are a fan of any of the 2 Toadies albums, you will be a fan of this one. There is a healthy mix of outstanding, midline, and yucky songs on this album as there have been in Todd's last two. Buy it, but for heaven's sake you cannot ever judge an album after just a few listens unless you are basing things on something like foul language (which Burden Bros have certainly maintained here). Songs to preview are If You're Going to Heaven, Your Fault, Beautiful Night and Shadow.

1 out of 5 stars Just horrible.......2005-04-05

First off, let me explain my own musical preferences. I enjoy Led Zeppelin, Soundgarden, QOTSA, Dandy Warhols, Kyuss, Toadies. I could go on, I just wanna give you an idea of what I like, so you can gauge my reaction to this album accordingly.

This is one of the worst albums I've ever heard. I was so incredibly dissapointed when I listened to it. I'm a pretty big fan of Toadies; this is nothing like Toadies. Every song sounds the same, Lewis doesn't change his vocals throughout the entire CD. I was expecting so much from this group considering their past endeavors, but even the instrumental part of the album is ridiculously lacking. I just don't know what happened. I bought this CD off of Amazon, when I received it I immediately put it in my CD payer and I disliked it so much I put it up for sale on Amazon the next day. I haven't been to any of their live shows, so those may rock, but this CD sucks. I'm not sure what the other reviewers are thinkin. If you can, I recommend going to your local used cd store and if they have a listening station, listen to this cd before you buy it. Do not waste even five bucks on this cd unless you listen to it first and like it. If you want a cd that rocks, buy the first Queens of the Stone Age cd or maybe the Kyuss cd Blues for the Red Sun. Or really, just buy anything BUT this Burden Brothers cd.

As befits a release on a fledgling indie label, Dualtone's tribute to Johnny Cash celebrates the feistier fringes of the Man in Black's catalog, adding a few mainstream milestones. In what is plainly a labor of love for all concerned, highlights extend from the pop innocence of "Ballad of a Teenage Queen" by Rodney Crowell (formerly married to Johnny's daughter Rosanne) to the folkier strains and husband-and-wife harmonies of "Pack Up Your Sorrows" by Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis to the honky-tonk majesty of "I Still Miss Someone" by pianist Earl Poole Ball. Some of the more familiar touchstones don't fare quite as well, with Billy Burnette turning in a tepid "Ring of Fire" and Dale Watson singing in a lower than comfortable register on "I Walk the Line," though James Intveld rises to the challenge of "Folsom Prison Blues." The house band and the largely acoustic arrangements give the 18-cut album more unity than many such projects, as the collection shows why one of the most influential and commercially successful artists in country's history remains an icon of alt-country as well. --Don McLeese

4 out of 5 stars dressed in black-j.cash tribute.......2007-05-27

not many tribute albums are worth a 2nd listen,not the case here however with the likes of hank III & rev.horton heat you can listen to this one over & over with out hearing a generic pop country artist murder a cash classic, most of the songs here are done quite well, some just stand out more than others,a must have for cash fans!

5 out of 5 stars The best tribute (so far).......2006-05-09

The whole spirit of this CD takes me back to my teenage years in the late '50s, when we listened to Johnny Cash's Sun singles (along with Jerry Lee Lewis and Bill Haley) on the juke box. In addition to the excellent renditions of Cash's music, this collection introduced me to a few excellent singers who had somehow managed to slip by under my radar. In particular, I love Robbie Fulks' version of "Cry, Cry, Cry"--what a fantastic singer/songwriter! Surprisingly, the singer who sounds most like a young Cash (without seeming to imitate him) is the very Reverend Horton Heat on "Get Rhythm." Another is Chuck Mead's "There You Go." Hank III gives his own unique take on "Wreck of the Old '97." Sounding more like his own grandfather, it's certainly not the way Johnny Cash did it, but he nevertheless captures the bare tragedy and heroic spirit of the song. "Pack up Your Sorrows" was a favorite during the '60s, but I barely remember Johnny Cash singing it. The most familiar version was by Richard & Mimi Farina, and Kelly Willis and Bruce Robinson faithfully capture the spirit of their version. The other song that stands out is "Straigh A's in Love" by Eddie Angel. It's often forgotten that Johnny Cash was not primarily a country singer. Beginning with his classic work at Sun Studio, he pretty much invented the rockabilly sound, and it is this spirit that is well represented here. Get this CD and keep it in your car to brighten up those pesky commutes.

4 out of 5 stars Straight A's 4 This Tribute Disc!.......2005-03-26

There is some excellent music on "Dressed In Black: A Tribute to Johnny Cash." Chris Knight is one of those musicians that always sparks my interest; his version of "Flesh & Blood" is such a plaintive laid back reading of this song that it gives an emotional mix of loneliness, hope & desire. It closes the set, but is one of the highlights for me. Eddie Angel's rockabilly "Straight A's In Love" is a naughty little tune that puts a smile on my face each time it comes on the changer. :) Austin songwriter Damon Bramblett's take on "I'm Gonna Sit on the Porch & Pick on My Old Guitar" may not seem polished, but it does exude a warmth that brings me into the music. Chuck Mead from BR5-49 produced this disc and plays on every track. His lead vocals on "There You Go" set your toe tapping, "You're gone again, I should'a known I couldn't win...He's by your side, you're gonna break another heart, you're gonna tell another lie." The Mavericks' Raul Malo sounds a bit like Chris Isaak to me on the slow shuffle of "I Guess Things Happen That Way." Rodney Crowell has been recording a series of great solo sets as well as with the Notorious Cherry Bombs. Here he turns a straightforward reading of "Ballad of a Teenage Queen." Robbie Fulks' "Cry, Cry, Cry" booms with great energy. No one will ever replace Johnny Cash, but these artists do a great job with songs that he previously polished. Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars A Nice Tribute.......2004-02-24

Hank III's "Wreck of the Old '97" makes this disc worth owning. His daring to break out of the mold that so many other artists have poured this song into, while still respecting the original, is reason enough to add this CD to your collection.

5 out of 5 stars Great Disc with one flaw.......2003-12-18

This disc is awesome! There's no beating Rodney Crowell, Redd Volkaert, and couple others. Now, I'm a Hank Fan also, and love what III does with his grandpa's music, but as for Wreck of the Old 97, he should be locked up. I wouldn't appear on anything rewriting a song that's been done for the past 75 years. Johnny, Hank Snow, all the ones I'd heard stuck very close to Vernon Dalhart's recording from the late '20s. III's almost made this disc a clay pigeon.

Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Great music, dreadful remastering on this release.......2007-04-17

In the Heat of the Night is Benatar's best record, IMHO.
But do NOT purchase this CD.
The "remastering" job done on this release borders on the criminal, in that it doesn't sound appreciably better than the first CD releases.
I understand they released another remastered version of these records in 2006. If you're buying these records for the first time, buy the later remasters.
As for me, luckily I had the original vinyl versions, which sound 5x better than this mud when I digitized them myself with an $8 adapter from Radio Shack. Still, I wish I had legal recourse for wasting $20 on this CD.

5 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT!!!.......2005-08-06

If you're looking at this CD.....you are already very familiar with Pats legacy and impact on female rock....so no need to review each track.

What you are getting is her 3rd and 4th albums....gloriously remastered like you never heard her before....the sound is strong and clean....the highs just sparkle...alot of effort went into the remastering of these tracks....the liner notes are fantastic...all the lyrics included.

You wont be disappointed..guaranteed!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Pat Benatar ruled! Other girls (singers) drooled!.......2005-04-23

This is really a great combination CD. Two of the very best Heavy Rock albums of the 80's in one place. I bought these albums separately before, but this one is a real cost-effective way to get truly Pat Benatar's best albums.
Listening to the songs on these albums. I was impressed again with Benatar's powerful voice. She punches right through on each song, and she can be just as effective on the Heavy stuff like "Heartbreaker" and "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", as she can be on the more softer stuff like "In The Heat Of The Night" and "Wuthering Heights" (a real under-rated performance, much better than the Kate Bush version - and SHE WROTE IT!).
Throughout both albums, though, it is clear that Pat's secret weapon is guitarist Neil Geraldo. Man, this cat rocked! I really liked his solos on "Heartbreaker" and "Out Of Touch". I'm glad he had the self-awareness and respect for Pat Benatar to unselfishly contribute to each song without going on the ego-trip of - say - a G.E. Smith (Hall And Oates) or that guy from Van Halen! A real rocker, and so cool!
I had only one comment about this CD, though. With both albums packed so tightly on one CD, my player had difficulty loading individual songs, but it worked out after a few tries.
These may be Pat Benatar's best albums, but check out "Precious Time" and "Get Nervous". They continue her winning combinations.

5 out of 5 stars two of her best albums on one CD, with full length versions.......2005-04-16

I'm so glad that this CD did not make the error the Tropico/Seven the Hard Way CD made, which is to edit about 3 of the songs from those albums to squeeze the radio edit of Love is A Battlefield onto the CD. This CD instead offers all the full length album versions of her first two albums, which are probably her best because they lean more towards a melodic new wave, almost Blondie-esque sound. My only disappointment is that I was hoping that In the Heat of the Night would--by a fluke--have the impossible to get on CD mix of We Live For Love that was available on some of the initial pressings of the original album. It was a much more new wave sounding version that removed much of the guitar and had a more pulsing bassline. I've sampled every Pat Benatar CD I come across to see if any compilations features that version, and have yet to find one. I would love to have both versions of the song on CD so I could get rid of my old vinyl album. But, having said that, this is still a 5 star CD.

5 out of 5 stars Come on now, how great was Pat Benatar!.......2005-03-13

At the height of my testosterone-storm adolescence came the perfect rock star for my state of being: Pat Benatar.
Just looking at her first album cover, I saw this sexy/pretty pouting tough-waif, and in the grooves of the record I found an operatic rock voice (dropping into a sexy growl from time to time) fronting a crack band playing contemporary new-wave power-pop rock and roll with gusto.
Everyone knows the single "Heartbreaker", but there are several other songs on the first album that are it's equal. Benatar has relied on covers throughout her early career, and here there are many, including Mellencamp's early song, "I Need A Lover".
The synthesizer rock element comes to the fore with the goofy "My Clone Sleeps Alone", and there's a sexy coquettish-ness to "Rated X".
"So Sincere", an exhilarating rocker, ends the first album proper with style.
This stupendous remaster includes BOTH albums on one CD, sweetly remastered.
"Crimes of Passion", for many their introduction to Ms. Benatar, is one of the iconic albums of the era.
The single "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" was all over the radio, as MTV was only just getting started. Other singles likes "You Better Run" followed, and she went "topical" with "Hell is For Children" ( a better-than-you'd-expect tale of child abuse). To her credit, it worked.
She gets slinky with the sinuous bass and drum lines of "Never Wanna Leave You", and overly dramatic with "Wuthering Heights". She goes for old-fashioned bar-band rock and roll with "Prisoner of Love" and again ends her album with a lacerating pop-rocker, "Out-A-Touch".
This two-fer remaster is clearly one of the best deals available, and brought me back to my junior high/high school days with a vividness and clarity that was jarring. And terrific at the same time...I was both proud and embarrassed that I remembered every lyric, every musical cue or riff...I knew instinctively which song was coming next.
But I bet you I haven't heard this album in over twenty years...it just goes to show you.
Exactly WHAT it shows, I'm not sure...but it HAS to be something! There are brain synapses that formed a quarter of a century ago, that are still there, just waiting for that first chord of "Heartbreaker" to set them afire...

Composer, arranger, and producer Quincy Jones was a youthful veteran of pop, jazz, and r&b when he began creating film and television music in the late '60s, and he brought those lessons to bear on vivid, contemporary music that broke from Hollywood's dependence on conventional orchestration. Although not the first film composer to lean heavily on jazz, Jones was unusually versatile in effectively coupling jazz, blues, and soul accents as he did in the brooding, bluesy score for 1968's In The Heat Of The Night, a detective thriller starring Sidney Poitier, and noteworthy for a terrific main title song featuring Ray Charles. This double package adds the album to the film's sequel, but it's still the Night you'll want to savor. --Sam Sutherland

5 out of 5 stars Very Grand.......2000-04-06

Quincy Jones&Ray Charles the Names Alone Speak Volumes.this Music Sounds Fantastic.Pure Genius All the Way Around.This Disc is a Classic&A Must.This is a Booming Disc.

5 out of 5 stars "Mister Tibbs" is the thing........2000-03-31

For me, although "In the Heat of the Night" had a fine score, "They Call Me Mister Tibbs!" is the main attraction here. The "Main Title" is memorable, vintage Jones R&B/soul; "Soul Flower" is a mellow but swinging track that I can never listen to just once; and "Blues for Mister Tibbs" is a funky Hammond organ rendition of the title track. To me, Jones' work on this film is at least equal to Isaac Hayes' towering "Shaft." A must for anyone who appreciates Jones as a composer.

4 out of 5 stars Great soundtrack, except for 3 vocal tracks.......2000-01-14

Vintage swinging-60s soundtracks with great instrumental tracks.

However, the vocal and country music tracks throw off the flow of the CD. Program out bumpkin tracks 10 (Bowlegged Polly) and 19 (Foul Owl) as well as terrible pseudo-swinging track 9 (It Sure is Groovy).

Industrial rockabilly anyone? From the galloping instrumental opener "Big Sky" to boozy, hard luck parables like "Baddest of the Bad" and "Liquor, Beer and Wine," this is greasy, blues-based roots music that rocks amazingly hard. Credit for the ear-clobbering sound goes to producer Al Jourgensen of Ministry fame. --Jeff Bateman

4 out of 5 stars Fast cars, fights, sex and alcohol..........2004-11-22

Best double-entendre album title ever...Liquor In The Front - Poker In The Rear. This sucker rocks hard and needs to be played loud. Sounds like The Cramps on steroids. Produced by Al Jourgensen (Ministry) it even has an industrial-rockabilly number called "Yeah, Right". All the songs are about fast cars, fights, sex and alcohol. My personal favorite is "Five-O Ford". Another fave is "Jezebel" which I would have sworn was a cover but it was written by the band. They also do a disgusting drunken version of "The Entertainer"

4 out of 5 stars "Poker In The Rear"........2004-04-18

Though they're all good, this is probably his most popular, and best album. It rocks suprisingly hard, and I don't know of anything as good in the genre. The combo of "Big Sky" and "Baddest Of The Bad" is an excellent start. "Five-O Ford" and "I Can't Surf" are both pretty aggressive, while "In Your Wildest Dreams" is almost lounge-ish. There's also a good dose of humor running through alot of these songs, and mostly in the last track. The "Reverend Horton Heat" may be called rock-a-billy, but he's no "Stray Cats", unless you cross him with "Ministry" that is. "Holy Roller" is his "Best Of" by the way.

5 out of 5 stars Buy it. And see the next show........2003-10-08

F'ed up Ford. Oh. My god. One of the best live bands ever. This band is pure talent. I reccommend buying the Rev's albums in chronological order. But this is worth the money for F'ed Up Ford by itself.

5 out of 5 stars The Reverend rides again.......2003-10-06

Definitely in my list of top 5 RHH records, this one is one fire! Quite possibly the hardest hitting openers are found on this one, they are also some of their personal favorites to play these days. Watching them play 'One time for me' to the wild, rowdy crowd at the Showbox this summer - I really came to understand what that one reviewer was saying when he compared the show to "putting on a stainless steel suit and running full bore into an electric fence". Buy this record now.

5 out of 5 stars Smokin hot guitar jams!!.......1999-10-24

this album jams hard, fast, and long. Incredible guitar work that rocks and swings at the same time. i love every song. Intense rockouts and some slower ballads give good balance and the humorous lyrics are entertaining. Big sky and Cruisin for a bruisin contain killer guitar playing, while In your wildest dreams chills out and is still a killer song. If you play guitar you'll definately pick up some experience points just by listening to the REV ROCKIN OUT!! Listening while cruisin down the road is a must so bring your leadfoot!!!
