4 out of 5 stars Good companion for Battlestar Fans.......2007-05-07

If you're a Battlestar Galatica Fan, this audio is an excellent companion to your collection. Passacaglia, Forgiven, and The Shape of Things to Come are emotional and addictive orchestral soundtracks. Not every song from the first season is included in this CD. The opening credit songs for the UK and the US versions and the battle songs (The Thousandth Landing, Battle on the Asteroid) are included. Battlestar Muzaktica is quite odd and doesn't fit with the collection of songs.

5 out of 5 stars Captures the feel of the show.......2007-04-11

Has a great selection of songs from the 1st season. I like show/movie CDs that you can picture the scenes and emotion of the actors when you hear the song. The Celtic underlays are great, and the Taiko drumming style is very well used for building intensity in the music. If you really like the series, you should probably really enjoy the music as well!

5 out of 5 stars Awesome Soundtrack.......2007-04-11

If you like the music in a scene that just blends in and makes the scene even more emotional or suspenseful, that is what the scores from season one do on this cd. I initially bought it to for the prologue (cylon music) and the two main titles (U.S. and U.K.) but after listening to the entire cd, I have become completely addicted to it. The titles of the scores usually give you a hint of the scene and the liner notes also tell you the episode that they are from but the soundtrack has definitely made rewatching season one an even more intriguing experience. The scores with words, are written by Bear and are in various languages, but the words, especially the opera piece, are actually so dead one with the scene and in this specific scene hilarious. I love this soundtrack. If you are someone who is addicted to really grasping everything that happens in this show and watch and analyze it beyond face value, this is an added bonus to have in your collection. I highly recommend it!!!

4 out of 5 stars BSG.......2007-04-10

Man I love the Classic and the Present BSG's So Inaturally find the SoundTrack/Score A joy and very relaxing. They tend to sound very similar but they are very diffrent.

5 out of 5 stars Agree with everyone else.......2007-03-28

There have been lots of raving reviews of this album, as well as the equally sensational season 2 soundtrack. I just wanted to add my opinion on one track, "Destiny". An earlier review describes an Arabic string instrument being used, but it is actually a biwa, a traditional Japanese instrument that has such a distinct sound that it's hard to imagine it being used for anything other than traditional gagaku music. I don't know if anyone but McCreary has ever tried to use this instrument for something else, but it hardly matters. The fact that McCreary managed to use it so effectively in a piece that is so different from gagaku music is a perfect testament to his unique genius. I'm really looking forward to following McCreary's career.

It's nothing short of remarkable that Roger Waters has built a successful career on obsessive ruminations on alienation, megalomania, and guilty fame, largely on the backs of one of history's most long-lived arena acts. The musical legacy Waters has shared with "another band" (as he sharply refers to his former Pink Floyd mates in this collection's self-penned liner notes) has served two distinctly different functions: part and parcel of the latter's nostalgia act; autobiographical foundation for the former's ongoing, if decidedly egocentric, Rage at the World. That's essentially the rationale this live collection uses to lean heavily on Waters's Pink prime, from Dark Side of the Moon through The Final Cut. And if that frame sometimes overshadows the images of Waters's solo work--well, no one said he wasn't a pragmatic entertainer. Still, his cynical eye insures the juxtapositions work well; the Falkland-conflicted Britain of The Final Cut's "Get Your Filthy Hands off My Desert" and "Southampton Dock" is neatly bookended by Amused to Death's "Bravery of Being out of Range." There's a telling musical contrast with Floyd here, too, and it's one that goes beyond the album's stellar recording techniques. Waters's ensemble breathes new life into even the coldest of the Floydian dirges, while giving the hoary psychedelic romp "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun" a welcome R&B groove. Waters concludes by offering up the previously unrecorded "Each Small Candle"--and an equally unexpected ray of hope. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Concert..........2007-05-28

Although you can't really compare David Gilmour's Pink Floyd performances to Roger Waters', I think I'm leaning more towards Roger's :) The standout track here is "Dogs" :)

5 out of 5 stars Just perfect.......2007-05-21

The choice of tracks is close to perfection, I would have like to hear more "Amused to death" but that's OK. The sound is amazing, great recording. A special mention for the amazing version of "Dogs", the vocal of Jon Carin is just perfect, I would have asked him to sing the following songs "Breath", "Time" (sorry Roger !)"Money" and the chorus of "Confortably Numb" because is voice is really great and not too different from David Gilmour's voice. Roger has not the voice for "Time" and Doyle Bramhall II is really amazing on guitars but he should let someone else sings, this is just my personal taste here. Finally, I am quite sure that Roger doesn't sing the middle part of "Every Stranger eyes", his voice is very different from the original version in the easiest parts, and it is very strange to see that his voice become a real copy of the original in the hardest part to sing ...hum ! If you have the DVD like I do, you'll notice that you have no "close up" on Roger in this part of the song, which make me think that I might be right ! Overall,
highly recommanded for Pink Floyd and Roger Waters fans.

5 out of 5 stars A fine Roxy album for the non-roxy fan.......2007-02-19

The maturity of the band shows through in addition to a nod to thier roots by doing the covers of Midnight Hour and Eight Miles High. If you are not already a Roxy fan or you are and you'r indoctrinating some one who'es never heard of them this is the album to play. "OH Yeah" is my favorite cut and one that gives full expression to Ferry's vocal emotions.

4 out of 5 stars More Than Hits (3.5 stars).......2007-01-29

The reformed Roxy Music of the late seventies still released great singles, but somehow lost the knack for making great albums. Flesh and Blood, the band's second full-length from this period and their seventh total, is mostly comprised of worthwhile material, but has a few wretched fillers that drag the overall album down. Banal covers of The Byrds' Eight Miles High and Wilson Pickett's Midnight Hour are superfluous at best, while Rain Rain Rain stinks stinks stinks. The remainder of Flesh and Blood gracefully advances the maturation of Roxy's experimental glam rock into stylish, New-Romantic pop. Roxy were beginning to sound more like their imitators (Ultravox, Japan, Associates) by this time, but beneath the veneer of tousled, continental elegance lay that same aura of mystery, estrangement, and decay that characterized their pivotal earlier recordings. Avalon, the band's eighth and final studio album, may have been a more graceful, cohesive affair, but this often overlooked record has a higher concentration of truly great songs.

5 out of 5 stars Roxy Music's "Flesh and Blood".......2007-01-11

This 1980 album from Roxy Music has no bad tracks, three or four very good ones, and two songs that are excellent. Most people will like "The Midnight Hour," a cover of the Wilson Pickett song and "Eight Miles High," a cover of a Crosby, Stills and Nash tune. The rest are all Roxy Music originals by Brian Ferry, some cowritten with Phil Manzanera. The two standouts are "Same Old Scene," a technorock masterpiece and "Over You," that starts out silly and transforms into some of the most beautiful head music you've ever heard.

5 out of 5 stars Superb Stuff............2006-12-04

Yes, this collection would have to be on the list of Very Enjoyable
Sound, whether or not one is a Roxy/Bry follower.The Bass guitar work
of Gary Tibbs alone makes this CD UN-REAL baby!!

5 out of 5 stars Best (hardcore) Zappa.......2007-06-03

Pam Zappa has described how her husband piled up the reels of recordings from the studio and on tour, down in their basement where he listened to them incessantly, taking the clips he thought were the best, and compiling them, over and over again. He released two such compilations after he broke us the original Mothers (and made Hot Rats). The first, Burnt Weeny Sandwich is fabulous.

Weasels is even better. Not only is it riskier and edgier, in its own weird way it's warm and nostalgic in a manner that eluded Zappa in his more calculated efforts. Maybe I'm just a sucker for Ray Collins singing the original OH NO. But even the more bee czar stage bits betray the sense of familial humor that abounded in this dysfunctional bunch.

While he would later collect musicians of greater sophistication and enjoy a more dedicated following, there was a magic to the first band, especially when he was pushing it to take chances while they still managed to hang onto their unique identities. Weasels is not mainly rock, but not mainly jazz either. Something more attitudinal, maybe even DADA. Definitely alternative.

This is daring stuff, but not so much room clearing as has been ascribed of it. Cutting and yet warm and fuzzy at the same time. Just like an electric rodent razor. (You can't accuse Neon Park of lacking truth in advertising. This cover, along with Feets Don't Fail Me Now both go in to the illustrators hall of fame.)

3 out of 5 stars Weasels Ripped My Flesh.......2007-04-03

The music on this album is very early stuff from MOI, and they tried to do a lot! Its not neccessarily "bad" but FZ and the MOI have done better. If you are not familliar to Zappa, this album would sound very odd to you. If you are a true Zappa fan, you would find this fascinating early music and in that case this album is a must-own!! Highlights of the album are Directly From My Heart To You, Toads Of The Short Forest, Get A little, Dwarf Nebula, Oh No, And The Orange County Lumber Truck.

5 out of 5 stars "FIVE STARS, CONDITIONALLY".......2007-02-27

If you don't like unusual music, please avoid this. But, if you like it, by all means, pick this up.

"Weasels" is a sampler of performances by the original Mothers Of Invention in the late 1960's, live and studio. Some of the live material is of questionable quality, but it does faithfully convey some of the more out-there work by this troup of gifted musicians. You can use this to bend the ear of folks you don't like, as another reviewer said on this page, but actually, pieces like "Prelude To The Afternoon Of A Sexually Aroused Gas Mask," as grating as it is, when you give it a little concentrated listening, are really intricate, well-rendered works. But, keep in mind, if you haven't heard this material before, you have been warned. If you don't like really bizarre music (some of this, one would say, isn't music), you will not like this at all. Of course, fans of Frank Zappa, and particularly, The Mothers Of Invention, fully appreciate this stuff; the odder, usually, the better. This is why I titled this review, "FIVE STARS, CONDITIONALLY;" you will either love it, or you will hate it, no in-between.

But, strangeness out of the way, included are some pieces of a delicate beauty, the first half of "Dwarf Nebula..." for instance. This band can, on a moment's notice, change a smooth, easily listenable piece of music into a chaotic jumble of the most seemingly undisciplined nonsene imaginable, and vice versa. Never a dull moment.

And, what I thought was a bit of marketing and artistic genius, would be the title track. The final medly, a studio recording of the song "Oh, No" segues into an excerpt from London's Festival Hall performance, the main body of "The Orange County Lumber Truck (a reference to bassist Roy Estrada's job before being a full-time musician), which abruptly splices into the title track, aptly named "Weasels Ripped My Flesh;" almost two minutes of screeching feedback and assorted other noise from the stage until Frank Zappa says to the audience, "Good night, boys and girls...Thank you for coming to our concert." Fade the applause, and it becomes a good ending to the record.

A little extra for the purchasers of the CD: The opening number, "Didja Get Any Onya?" is restored to its full-length, the second half isn't available on the vinyl release. And the sound throughout the disc is remixed and remastered to include arrangements previously not audible in previous releases.

So, just be prepared for one of the weirdest records you'll ever hear, and you won't be disappointed.

2 out of 5 stars descuido prolijo de un genio............2006-09-29

que hacer con tantas grabaciones desperdiciadas por excesiva experimentacion o busqueda..que hacer con ensayos,improvisacion sin inspiracion....esto es lo que podemos escuchar en este album..ya se que muchos diran que son genialidades del maestro, que el oido comun no esta a su altura y que se yo ...yo soy de los que aman a zappa, pero tambien tengo oidos y el criterio musical suficiente para advertir un bodrio...ya se que esta lowell george, que estan los mothers..y que ?? esto no es una genialidad..es solo un paso en falso, una busqueda inconclusa..no busquemos explicaciones complejas a lo sencillo...este disco es un rejunte de material, desprolijo, mediocre, irregular..solo dos canciones podrian reconocer este formato, lo demas son inspirados y sarcasticos titulos con ruido de fondo.....no lo disfracemos de arte incomprendido....nadie va a discutir la genialidad del gran frank zappa, pero como todos nosotros, fue humano y tambien la pifiaba, seamos honestos...una obra para coleccionistas, nada mas..

4 out of 5 stars loose disconnected.......2006-09-12

The album cover is great and the music certainly is wonderful for driving away annoying persons whether they be family, Mormons or some woman in love with Steve Perry. The cover is something that belongs on every single middle aged woman's bedroom wall.

The tunes are a loose hodgepodge of live and studio stuff that still manages to maintain his odd conceptual contiuity. Weasels is definitely worth picking up for any fan but probably not the place for someone to loose their Zappa cherry.

Flesh & Blood finds the ultimate party band of the 80s taking a more serious tack. Surprisingly enough, most of the time it works, and the result is a collection of songs with more substance than Poison's previous work, while preserving the band's sense of fun. "Valley of Lost Souls", "Life Loves a Tragedy", and the introspective "Life Goes On" show that Poison is in fact capable of writing good songs that aren't party anthems, though "Something to Believe In" stretches their ambition to the breaking point. "Unskinny Bop" is a delightful piece of raunchy adolescent rock, and "Ride the Wind" is a catchy biker tune (though nowhere near as classic as "Born to Be Wild"-then again, nothing is). The band even veers toward a bluesier edge at times, notably on "Poor Boy Blues". -- Genevieve Williams

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars This is my favorite Poison album.......2007-07-26

This is my favorite Poison album because not only did they include songs that had their "trademark sound" from previous albums, they expanded in additional musical directions.
"When I hear the music- Let it Play!"
I have definitely played this album more than any other in my collection.
- Michelle

4 out of 5 stars Perhaps Poison's Best Original Album.......2007-07-10

Although it lacks a little of the "party band" punch that made Poison a top glam rock band, "Flesh & Blood" is definitely one of their best albums. It showed the listening audience that they knew about more than just partying, drinking, and sexcapades. The band collectively offers up one of their strongest efforts music-wise, especially C.C. Deville, who has some wonderful guitar solos here. They aren't all in the "who plays fastest?" vein. Instead, Deville gets to slow things down quite a bit.

Songs such as "Something To Believe In" and "Life Goes On" show that the band can actually sit down and write a good serious song. Don't worry that Poison is hanging up their goodtimes shoes, though, because songs like "Don't Give Up An Inch" and the wonderfully silly "Unskinny Bop" remind the listener that they still know how to have a good time.

If you're looking for a sweet reminder of your youth (like me), "Flesh & Blood" is definitely the poison you need to pick. It's their best album lyrically and quite possibly their best album overall.

5 out of 5 stars Poison's best cd.......2007-04-19

If I had to prove to people that Poison was a great rock band and better then Motley Crue, i'd play this cd. The first song Valley Of Lost Souls is a excellent rock song then it just keeps rocking until the ballad, Life Goes On, rocks some more then the hit Something To Believe In. A great cd to any collection. There is more to Poison then just the hair.

4 out of 5 stars Poison Grows Up.......2006-09-12

On their first two albums, Poison were complete unapologetic about their party hard approach to life and music. On their third studio release, things change. The album kicks off with a little instrumental tune called "Strange Days Of Uncle Jack", while not annoying, the track really doesn't add anything to the album. The next track "Valley Of Lost Souls" is really an awesome hard rock tune and if it were put out by just about any other band people would be raving about what a great hardcore track it is, but since it's Poison a lot of people dismiss it.

"(Flesh & Blood) Sacrifice" is a tune with a catchy chorus that makes want to jump up and scream along with the stereo. "Swampjuice Soul-O" is a quick `bluesy' solo that CC puts up, not great but it's a neat quick piece of work. "Unskinny Bop" was definitely one of Poison's big hits, and the first single off of the album. It's somewhat of a shame since the band had grown so much with this album, that they released a single that made it look like they were doing more of the same thing from the first two albums. While it's a fun track, I really don't think it holds up well over time although I do love CC's solo on this track. "Let It Play" seems to be an attempt to convey `their love of music', and it works pretty well. The band shows they have more talent and soul than they are given credit for and it shines through here. "Life Goes On" is probably my favorite Poison ballad ever, it's really a great heartfelt tribute to love lost, a bit of a tear jerker.

One of my favorite rockers the band ever put out is "Ride The Wind", a great fast paced song, that doesn't just fall into being a cheesy anthem or sing a long. Poison continues to show that they're growing up and maturing. "Something To Believe In", another of Poison's biggest hits, this is a fantastic plea for the search for meaning. Again, if someone else had put it out, the raves would never stop, but since it was Poison and they were an easy target, they just weren't given the credit deserve on this one.

This is a great solid album that still shows signs of the party band we all fell in love with on their first release, but shows great signs of maturity and development that will continue to progress in future releases. Not a must have for any rock collection, but you definitely won't regret picking this one up.

If you live hooked in the 90's like me I don't need to submit a review of this cd this band, I hated this band back in 1991 cause they seems to me to be a joke a really bad joke to rock music but something I do not expected was that 15 years later I'll love this cd, listening it brings me a lot of memories and thats the reason for me to have it

One of the breakout stars of 1998, DMX wasted little time in following up his No. 1 album It's Dark and Hell Is Hot with Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood. If the quick turnaround seems surprising, maybe it's because DMX's second LP doesn't fall far from the original tree. Key to his formula, DMX has mastered the art of thug-life anthems, following in the dubious footsteps of 2Pac and Noreaga. While his gruff voice and simple delivery help make his songs infectious, they're rarely creative, especially with anemic beats, redundant subject matter, and his trademark barks. Basically, Flesh of My Flesh is a perfect buy for those who couldn't wait a whole year for another DMX LP, but it won't convert many new listeners. --Oliver Wang

4 out of 5 stars Just 'cause I love my n*****, I shed blood 4 my n*****.......2007-06-12

I was introduced to DMX, of all places, on Mase's 1st CD on a track entitled "24 Hours To Live". The track featured Black Rob, The LOX and DMX with an energetic Puff Daddy on the chorus. Soon after that track, I heard him on the LOX's "Money, Power, & Respect" which also featured Lil Kim. I was shopping for music one day and I found a CD Maxisingle to "Get At Me Dog", which also had the track "Stop Being Greedy" on it. Based on the reputation of his verses on "24 Hours To Live" and "Money, Power & Respect", I decided to purchase the CD Maxisingle eventhough I hadn't heard it. "Get At Me Dog" was produced by Dame Grease and was full of energy. It used the same sample that EPMD had used for "Get The Bozack". DMX had some choice words for a particular rapper, who I later found out was K-Solo, and he definitely had me anticipating his solo debut. "Stop Being Greedy" ended up being his 2nd single and was also a tight track. DMX's "It's Dark And Hell Is Hot" dropped in 1998 and is easily my favorite CD from DMX. My favorite tracks ended up being "Ruff Ryders' Anthem", "F*****' Wit' D", "Get At Me Dog", "Damien", "Crime Story", "ATF" and "N***** Done Started Something" w/The LOX and Mase.

One of my boys told me that DMX was droppin' another CD before the end of the year and of course, I didn't believe him. It was hard for me to believe that DMX would drop 2 CDs in the same calendar year. However, in December of 1998, DMX's 2nd CD, "Flesh Of My Flesh Blood Of My Blood" was released. Usually, before I listen to a CD I will check the liner notes for production credits, guest appearances, etc. I was immediately stunned to see DMX covered in blood and in a devilish mind state. However, I was still able to enjoy the music once I put the CD in my stereo. The CD starts off with one of DMX's famous quotes on Jay Z's "Money, Cash, Hoes" from his "Volume 2...Hard Knock Life" Disc. From there DMX does his best attempt to make you not want to listen to the CD in "Bring Your Whole Crew". The beat is tight and DMX even has decent lyrics on the track at times. However, you have to draw the line at some point when it comes to the lyrics. I am sure people that have followed DMX know what I am talking about, I guess he wanted his lyrics to reflect the way that he looked on the CD cover on this track. DMX gets his slow flow on with "Ain't No Way". Swizz Beatz was able to produce more tracks this time around because of the success of DMX's "Ruff Ryders' Anthem". The remix was featured on DJ Clue's "The Professional" CD. "We Don't Give A F***" features Styles P from the LOX and Jadakiss on the hook. DMX sounds as if he is calling someone out just as he did on "Get At Me Dog" and things workout because of the tight production by Irv Gotti and Rebel and because of quality contributions from 2/3 of The Lox. The queen of hip hop/r&b, Mary J. Blige joins DMX as he tries to explain where he is "Coming From". PK, who produced "Bring Your Whole Crew" gives DMX a nice track and DMX is able to spit retrospective rhymes just like he did on the 1st single "Slippin'". "The Omen" is the sequel to "Damien" from "It's Dark And Hell Is Hot" and things still end up working on Part 2. I admit that I was surprised to hear Marilyn Manson on the hook put things still end up working. Swizz Beatz gives DMX and Drag-On a nice uptempo track to allow them to get some things started in the club on "No Love 4 Me". The production is definitely tight and I am sure that you listened to this track as much as I did back in the day.

The track that hands down is my favorite song has to be "Blackout". You get a track with no hook or chorus that gives you A+ verses from Jadakiss, Sheek Louch and Styles P. from the LOX, Jay-Z, who clearly put DMX to shame on this track and DMX finishing things off at the end. This is clearly an example of the guests getting the best of the rapper whose CD it is. However, the collaboration is still top notch and is one of my favorite rap collaborations of all time. "Heat" continues where "Blackout" left off, however, DMX shines as he gets his own platform to show you that the heat is always on in the streets. Swizz Beatz is on the hook and this is definitely one of my favorites on this CD.

After, all the tales of violence and what happens to unsuspecting people out of the blue, it was nice to see DMX take a break just as he did on "Slippin'" and "Coming From" to tell you that he is "Ready To Meet Him". DMX thanks the Lord just as he did on "Prayer" from his debut. The track starts off with another thoughtful prayer and DMX ends the CD off on a nice note as he raps his open letter to the man above.

Overall, this was a nice sequel to "It's Dark And Hell Is Hot". DMX gave you the same fiery lyrics and Swizz Beatz had his coming out party with the production. You can listen to the whole CD but you should definitely be able to tell the better songs from the others. With Def Jam, releasing "DMX's Greatest Hits: Pick Of The Litter" on 6/12/07, I figured I would dig back into the collection to give you a review of one of my favorite rap CDs of the past.

4 out of 5 stars In Less Than A Year............2007-01-27

After the following of the very well received debut of "It's Dark and Hell Is Hot"....I personally think DMX might have pushed his sophomore effort out there a little too quickly thinking that his newly developed fans would quickly forget about him and dismiss him as a one album wonder. Whatever the case may be, DMX(Earl Simmons in his late 30's at the time might I add) pumped out this gem. No, it's not a sequel to his outstanding debut but it receives my respect all the same. My favorite cut would have to be "Slippin'"....and despite the overused quoted chorus of "I'm slippin' I've fallen and I can't get up", X tells an eloquent ghetto poem. However, with only releasing this only 7 months after the release of his debut, X proves that he has staying power.

4 out of 5 stars Two Albums In One Year...Thats A Rarity...Especially If They're Both Dope (Rating:8 out of 10- -4 stars).......2006-11-22

Yes people, 1998 DMX dropped two albums: It's Dark And Hell Is Hot and Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood. In my opinion, this is my favorite one of all he's made, to include the recent Year Of The Dog Again. I remember I had this when it first came out around '98/'99, in middle school, and I might have played tracks 6-14 every day for about 3 months straight. Thats how much I loved this album.

Anyway X showed that he was on point with this album here. I recall one of the lead singles was "Slippin"...and they must have forgotten to put the unedited version on here, although you can find it on the internet. What I seemed to notice is that DMX likes to rhyme about his life growing up, and it seems to work like on the song "Comming From" and as mentioned earlier "Slippin", which works well. X's lyrical skills were also on another level, as he spits flames on the song "Keep Your Sh..The Hardest" as well as on the title track "Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood". Two of my favourites are the traditonal songs (the ones that appear on almost every album) "The Omen (aka Damien II)" with dark vocals from Marlyn Manson, as well as "(The Prayer II)/Ready To Meet Him", and out of all the ones he's done on every album, these are the best ones.

Production is good. It's mostly dark sounding, something I like for the most part, mostly done by Swizz Beats.

Guest wise is good too. The Lox comes in for two songs "We Don't Give A F" as well as "Blackout" which would also feature Jay-Z.

The only problems I have with the album is the beginning. "My N****z" & "Ain't No Way" are the only skippable tracks on here. Also the skits are really not needed through out this album. Other than that this is one that you really need to cop. I seriously doubted that DMX ever topped this album throughout his career, but it is definately worth hearing.

Production: B+
Guest Appearances: B+

Favorite Tracks: Keep Your Sh..The Hardest, Where I'm Comming From, It's Alright, Slippin, The Omen (Damien II), No Love For Me, Dogs For Life, Blackout, Flesh Of My Flesh Blood Of My Blood, The Prayer II/Ready To Meet Him

5 out of 5 stars Best Ever 'once out of print' Album!.......2007-08-03

Easily David Grays masterpiece. Start to finish...the aggressive energy from "What Are You?"...the Summer driving happiness of "The Light." This album has it all! When down and out, try starting your day with "New Horizons" before putting some "FLESH", on the bones of your dreams. Quite disappointed when experiencing that he doesn't play much of this live.


5 out of 5 stars David Gray is a Musical Treasue !!.......2007-02-23

Right when I was starting my "must buy every David Gray CD available" I had trouble tracking this CD down. One day I found it in a used CD store after asking if they had any Gray CD's. The man working there said "well, only this one...it's not White Ladder." I couldn't believe how close minded he was to only care about what was "Hot" at the time. I said "Yeah...but it's David Gray so I'm sure it's great". The first track (What are You?)was very aggressive and angry and as much as I liked it right away I was afraid that it would be "Theme Album" like so many tend to do. His whole album could have been that abrasive. That's when I learned something about Gray that has served me well ever since: David Gray uses certain sounds and instruments only if it benifits a song then lets it go. He never forces a instument through an entire album. Case in point is "Mystery of Love" which is the only song that has Pedal Steel in it and what an amazing sound. His songs make your soul ache for more. His lyrics are so cryptic yet beautiful it's a pleasure to feel them wash over you. I have heard that this album originally was his poorest selling out of all his efforts but it was due to no promotional effort by the record company not the superb music recorded hear. For those customers who fear that there is a chance any of his albums may lack compaired to others, have no fear David Gray is one of the few in this world whose work always adds to the world of music. I hope this helped:)

5 out of 5 stars David Gray is one of my favorite singer-songwriters, Period........2005-10-01

Clever writing. He has a knack for blending lyrics with melodies that is rare these days. Great album!

5 out of 5 stars Something to make you appreciate life..........2005-09-23

I have every CD David Gray has put out...This is one of my favorite's. "Coming Down" hit home and the heart. Every lyric, every line of words, hit home & the heart. Yes, Its deep, but it is a soul shiner!!!!!!!!!!!!! " Loves old song" a treasure.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing.......2005-07-17

I'm not gonna lie i got a burned copy of this cd from a friend and didnt think much of it when i first got it....Now i cant imagine not ever having this cd. New horizon is my favorite song on this cd. i love every track and could listen to it all day but new horizon reminds me of the beginning of my freshman year in college. " Things come too easy, I get suspicious
things come too slow, I get bored
if it don't work out I get superstitious
but if it does, oh my word"
that quote in itself describes my life. AMAZING CD cant wait for his new stuff

I wore this thing out when I was in college. I have been waiting for it, among other Flesh re-releases. Finally, we are starting to see them. Here is hoping there are more on the way. The beauty of Flesh for Lulu is that they made creative songs with hooks. You do not have to strain to "get" the songs, they are good at first listen and stay good.

It was my brother that turned me on to it. I had this brand new on cassette tape and wore it out. I was glad that it was placed on CD. I have burnt it MP3 and I have it on my iPod. The songs on this album are all upbeat and fun. I especially like "Lucky Day," "Hammer of Love," "Siamese Twist," & "I Go Crazy." Great 80s music.

I searched forever for this CD. I could listen to Postcards over and over.

Okay, wow! I have been waiting YEARS for this to be reissued. This has got to be one of the BEST albums from the '80s!! "Postcards From Paradise" was the soundtrack to my senior year of high school. Even the lesser known songs "Sleeping Dogs", "Crash" and "Lucky Day" are amazing! And the bonus tracks *bows to Superfecta* I'm just amazed I actually have this.

4 out of 5 stars Syleena delivers once again........2007-07-30

After two solid, if not excellent chapters, the highly underrated Syleena Johnson returns with a sexier image and a nostalgic, '70s soul-influenced sound. (I always thought her light raspy alto sounded just a little bit like Betty Wright.) Her voice is better than ever and the production here (Kanye West, Jermaine Dupri, R. Kelly, etc.) is polished and top notch. The album begins with feel-good love songs. "More" is an excellent duet with Anthony Hamilton, "Classic Love Song" is a catchy midtempo and "Bullseye (Suddenly)" is beautiful. The middle of the album is filled with more sensual tracks, but the greatest part of the album is the end, where Ms. Johnson does what she does best; she takes her painful life experiences and delivers them in song. "Another Relationship," the second single, is an emotional, scornful and dramatic testimony of a woman that is being left by her man for another woman. Ironically, just a track later, Syleena takes on the persona of "the other woman" with a guilty consience, telling the man to "Leave Her Alone." She leaves a relationship going nowhere on "Apartment for Rent." But my favorite track by far is "Only A Woman." What a way to end the album! Syleena pours her heart out on the track, sharing all the daily trials and tribulations of a woman who also has to be strong "like a man." Chapter 3 is an excellent album and I would have to agree with Ms. Johnson herself that this is her best work to date.

5 out of 5 stars Stop Sleeping On This One!!!.......2007-05-17

Syleena Johnson is back, and she ain't pulling no punches. I love a CD I can just pop in and let ride, and this is definitely on my top 5 list. Phone Sex is my favorite track, but you can sit back and let this one ride. I muat buy!

3 out of 5 stars It took it's sweet time, but it grew on me..........2007-02-03

I will admit that upon my first listen I was left a little off. This is far from what I thought I was getting myself into. I had never heard anything from her before but she was recommended to me by a friend and after looking at her impressive list of guest stars (Twista, Anthony Hamilton, Common) I didn't hesitate to long to purchase her album. Her interlude immediately set me off. Its way to preachy and then her first real track `Hypnotic' kicks in and totally disproves everything she expressed in the opener. That said, after listening to this album a few times I've come to fall for her.

She has a very strong voice, unique and different and I like that. She doesn't sound like every other R&B diva out there...she's her own woman. I will say that there are a few times on the album where I feel her voice is too mature for the songs she's trying to pull off. Songs like `More' with the brilliant Anthony Hamilton really showcase this woman's talent. `Leave me Alone' is another highlight, and even `Hypnotic' is handled well, although it's not something I think she should stick to. I was troubled to find that `Phone Sex' is my least favorite track here. I LOVE Twista but this song just does nothing for me.

Oh well...to think I hated this album the first time I heard it, tucked it away and swore never to give it another try, then I did, don't know why and now I've come to appreciate it all the more...

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Wonderful.......2007-02-02

I don't write reviews. This is actually my first one. I love this album. Syleena touches on so many different subjects. I love the raspy voice. Her voice has so much texture and personality. Nobody out there sounds like her. It is really a shame that her label has not promoted her. She could rival Mary J if her label backed her.

4 out of 5 stars she's got a right to do her thing the way she wants.......2006-12-22

Okay now while i dont own this album i took the courage of listening to it on limewire. Syleena has been a good singer since she started and she is an example of what R&B is supposed to sound like. Now from my experience of this album I enjoyed it thourgly and i would have bought it when it came out if I had known(My old filesharing program didnt have any good selection, and also i was broke). Now my favorite songs on here are hypnotic, slowly, speical occasion, time, leave me alone, and only a woman. also the interludes are seductive. Okay, now I'm seeing the complaint that she sold out. Okay yes she pulled the sensual thing on this album but she never stoops down to say...KHIA(my neck my back....lick my ...well you know the rest) level. Some are saying she shed her clothes. Ummmm........didnt she kina do that on "tonight im gonna let go" and in the video she's dressed in a somewhat short skirt and top shaking her a** in front of busta rhymes?? While I admit hypnotic doesnt sound like something syleena would do, she pulled it off very well. Overall this album is not full of tired beats like that otehr person said. Yes it's a different vibe than some of her stuff in the past it still sounds like it would be on a 30 and up station rather than say your local radio station(i mean how much serious R&B is on the radio today?) She only really got sexual on two songs (phone sex and slowly). the rest of the album is love songs and a couple of her songs about wrong doin men(which she is known to sing about).

OOOH how ironic is this. From the negative reviews one person said it was just tired beats while somebody else said there were NO beats at all. Oh well I guess it's just a matter of preference.

5 out of 5 stars A GREAT CHRISTIAN ROCK BAND!!!!.......2007-04-17

NOBODY CARES ABOUT SATAN ANYMORE except for Christians. Are you guys a Christian rock band or what??? If you keep quoting the stupid bible in your songs, your gonna end up on 92.3 FM, "THE MUSIC OF THE LORD, BY CRADLE OF FILTH". Once again boys, NOBODY CARES ABOUT SATAN, OR YOUR DUMB SPELLS, OR YOUR GIRLY CLOTHES, OR YOU FANCY LOREAL MAKEUP!!!! TODAY, GUYS, I WILL TELL YOU HOW TO BECOME A REAL BAND:
1) FORGET ABOUT SATAN, ONLY TAMMY FAYE BAKER CARES ABOUT SATAN, NOBODY GIVES A FLYIN' MR. TOADS WET BALLS ABOUT SATAN ANYMORE!!! THAT WAS 15 YEARS AGO, SATAN'S DONE NOW, IF YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED. AND STOP QUOTING THE BIBLE, WE DON'T GIVE A PIG'S LEFT NUT ABOUT THE BIBLE.

2) STOP GOING TO THE MALL!!! START GETTING YOUR CLOTHES AT THRIFT STORES. NOBODY GOES TO THE MALL ANYMORE GUYS, NOBODY. MALLS ARE OUT, THRIFT STORES ARE IN.
3)CUT YOUR HAIR UNLESS IT'S REAL, AND IT"S NOT BECAUSE YOU GUYS ARE OLDER THAN THE DRIED RAT POOP IN MY ATTIC. AND DON'T GO TO THE SALON!!!! GO TO THE BARBER SHOP LIKE REAL MEN!!! SALONS ARE OUT, BARBER SHOPS ARE IN. GET RID OF THE STYX AND MICHAEL BOLTON HAIRCUTS!!!! PLEASE!!!!

4)QUIT IT WITH THE RIDICULOUS SCREAMS ALREADY!!!! SCREAMS WENT OUT OF STYLE 10 YEARS AGO, AND THEY AREN'T RETRO YET. BUT DON'T TRY TO SING EITHER, THAT WOULD BE DUMB, JUST QUIT PLAYING ALTOGETHER, THAT WOULD BE UP TO DATE.

5)QUIT STUFFING YOUR PANTS, PLEASE!!!! STUFFING YOUR PANTS WENT OUT OF STYLE 20 YEARS AGO. IF YOU HAVE A SMALL SCHLONG, SO WHAT!!! THE LAST THING WE WANT TO SEE IS THAT NASTY BULGE COMING OUT OF YOUR PANTS, YOU LOOK LIKE TOM JONES WITH EYE SHADOW AND A WIG.

6)QUIT PLAYING THOSE FANCY GUITARS, JUST GO TO A PAWN SHOP AND BUY AN OLD GUITAR FOR $100. YOU GUYS LOOK DUMB WITH THOSE UGLY GUITARS. GET A REAL GUITAR.

7)MOST OF ALL, QUIT POSING!!!! JUST TAKE A FREAKIN PICTURE WITH YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA AND QUIT POSING FOR SHOTS. POSING HAS BEEN OUT FOR 15 YEARS NOW. DON'T BE LOSERS, DON'T BE POSERS!!!!

8) STOP TRYING TO BE SCARY!!! MAYBE YOU GUYS ARE RICH, AND MAYBE YOU DRIVE NICE CARS, AND MAYBE YOU HAVE BIG HOUSES, BUT THERE IS ONE THING THAT YOU DEFINITELY ARE NOT----AND THAT IS SCARY!!!! YOU ARE NOT NOW, AND NEVER WILL BE SCARY, SO PLEASE GIVE IT UP.
G.G. ALLIN WAS VERY SCARY!!! WILLARD WAS SCARY!!!! ROSEMARY'S BABY WAS PRETTY SCARY!!!! JOAN CRAWFORD WAS VERY SCARY!!!! EVEN MICHAEL JACKSON IS KIND OF SCARY SOMETIMES!!!!! CRADLE OF FILTH IS ABOUT AS SCARY AS A BAG OF CANDY CORNS ON HALLOWEEN.

3 out of 5 stars This album is fine!.......2007-02-26

Despite the negative comments certain people have left, I believe this album to be fine. It's very atmospheric and the vocals don't sound too much different. It's a first release, so obviously it isnt as good as some of their later albums but really it isnt that bad. And in response to that comment about the keyboards sounding like carnival music: They definitely do not. Far from carnival music actually. Guess that person doesnt know his sounds very well.

For all you Cradle of Filth haters, also:
Cradle of Filth is an amazing band. Not only do they not sound like pointless noise like a lot of other black metal bands, but their lyrics and vocals and instrumentals are all amazing. Who cares if they came to sound more commercial? It's their prerogative and personally I think they came to sound a lot better.

1 out of 5 stars Another band that I USED to like...........2007-02-24

..But now that I've been introduced to some much, much more evil metal (Morbid Angel, Slayer, Hellhammer, et cetera), I could care less about this band. In fact, only one of their albums I still listen to anymore these days ("Damnation and a Day") and even that album gets on my nerves. Dani Filth (pretty accurate name) has possibly one of the worst "evil" voices I've ever heard! The guitarists prevail in churning out some pretty cool stuff once in awhile but that's about it. There's no bass (well, there might be one, I just can't hear it), the keyboards are lame, the drummer feels like he can beat on anything he wants (which does NOT make music, I'm afraid. Nice try, though), and overall, this band just flatout doesn't do it for me anymore.

I know I'm probably wasting my time and you CoF fans will probably bash me (and my good buddy Comrade Ren) with "flamez of DOOM!!" and nonhelpful votes, but not everyone will like this band, you know. Get over it! Just listen to any band that Comrade Ren below me listed. And you fanboys/fangirls try to realize that CoF isn't real black metal (Dimmu Borgir is real black metal, my friends!).

1 out of 5 stars Undoubtedly the worst black metal band ever........2007-02-23

Maybe not since Cradle of Cr@p isn't really black metal. This is about as evil and chilling as a crying baby. Harsh and irritating, yes, but evil? Nope. This is f@ggoth nu-metal, "black metal" for your typical nu-metal kids too afraid to listen to real metal. God I hate Dani's voice, and the music is awful. No bass, mediocre guitars, lame keyboards, and terrible drumming. I'd rather rip my d1ck off and throw it in Lake Michigan than listen to these guys.

For truly evil metal albums (not just black metal) listen to Bathory's "Blood Fire Death," Celtic Frost's "Morbid Tales," Nocturnus's "The Key," Morbid Angel's "Altars of Madness" (this is godly), Slayer's "Hell Awaits," and Hellhammer's "Apocalyptic Raids" for starters.

Death to Cradle of Filth.
