5 out of 5 stars Divinely Inspired with Mystical Qualities: Would You Like to Listen to a Piece of Heaven?.......2007-08-04

One evening, I was reading a book while sitting in my Lazy Boy recliner in my basement den, not too far from my personal altar. I was listening to the "Soundscapes" channel on my digital-cable TV, #433 in Richmond, Virginia (a Divine numerical sequence, coincidentally). Suddenly, I heard a song that was so beautiful that it made me look up from my book. It was called "Because I Love You So," by a musician named Jim Jenkins.

I purchased the CD and found all of the other pieces on the album mesmerizing too. When I played it as background music for meditation, which I generally do not do unless it's music that really moves me and I'm in the right mood, it brought tears to my eyes several times because of the Divine thoughts and feelings that it elicited.

I was playing it on my computer with a wonderful, music-activated imaging system which features a tunnel-like image that changes color depending on the properties of the sound. The tunnel reminds me of the near-death experience (N.D.E.) that I had at age 12 in 1972. This system is very sensitive, and I have noticed how certain pieces of especially spiritual music seem to produce colors that are associated with the chakras and Heaven.

I was amazed at the color variations that were produced when I played the song "Because I Love You So," combinations and intensities that I never have witnessed before on my computer screen - pure golds and whites, serene greens, ascending violets, and deep blues. In my humble opinion, this music has been produced with the help of the Holy Spirit who is the Source of all True and lasting artistic inspiration.

"Jim's music is like floating on a cloud with Angels providing the soundscape." - Aquarius Magazine. I copied the latter quote from the CD cover because I totally agree.

According to Jenkins' biography which I found on the internet, "The yardstick in determining which of his songs had merit was rather simple. Jim only recorded music that moved him to tears of joy." I definitely can believe it.

I shared the song "Because I Love You So" with some of my friends who are spiritually inclined. I'm an amateur singer and guitar player. Ditto for my friend Natalie who also is an accomplished violinist. Natalie sent me an email that contained the following less than 24 hours after I emailed her the song "Because I Love You So." Note: the latter song is an instrumental piece and contains no "apparent" lyrics:

"I could hear words when I listened to the music. It was the most bizarre thing. I could hear them clear as a bell and realize I am not alone in this struggle-God told me in the music He will always be there! Pretty cool!! Thanks and much love. Natalie."

Note: Natalie is a married, church-going, mother of two, who also holds down a very responsible professional job that regularly takes her around the country. She is not mentally deranged and does not consume drugs or alcohol, and neither do I. She told me that she was planning on buying the CD as soon as possible.

I also emailed the song to Mary Ellen, who is known professionally and on her websites as "The Angel Scribe." She is an "international best-selling author." The following was her reaction:

"This is Jim Jenkins from the Seattle area? I have 3 of his CD's, they are wonderful. Angelic Blessings, Mary Ellen 'Angel Scribe.'"

The music on this CD reminds me of Heaven and The Angels. What more can my friends and I say? Thanks God, Holy Spirit, and Jim Jenkins. Smile.



5 out of 5 stars Worth the purchase.......2007-01-31

I have purchased two of these CD's because I lost one. It is a very relaxing CD and I play it for my granddaughters at nap time. By the second or third song, they are fast asleep. I sometimes am too!

5 out of 5 stars Perhaps the finest!.......2005-08-11

This CD truly inspired me after the loss of a loved one.
The CD is both melodious & heart warming.
Jim Jenkins truly is a wonderful artist and my musical hero.

      Amazon.com

      This set tells you why Jussi Bjorling is a perennial entrant in the "Tenor of the Century" sweepstakes. Even as the voice darkens from the light lyric to the full, darker instrument of the later recordings, we hear a singer whose elegant style, lovely timbre and innate musicality touch the heart. Many of the selections are sung in Swedish, less of a liability than you might suppose. In whatever language, Bjorling's molten gold flows lavishly. He eschews the sobs and sentimentality that disfigure so much verismo repertory, making his points with stylish vocalism. He's been called a "cool" singer, but try his Puccini and Verdi arias on Disc One and you'll find more than enough vocal and emotional heat. The selections include many neglected Scandinavian songs, sung, like the arias, with a naturalness that disarms criticism. -- Dan Davis

      Amazon.com

      Swedish tenor Jussi Björling gets many votes for the distinction of greatest all-time tenor. Up to the end, the voice projected a boyish vulnerability, though he also had enough stentorian power to sing the heavy Puccini roles and was ready to take on Lohengrin when he died. He was so deeply musical he eschewed the usual tenor vulgarity without ever slighting the music's theatricality. Even these four well-filled discs of arias and songs can't fully encompass the vocal riches he left behind, but there's a lot here, much of it from his earliest years and (hope you don't mind) sung in a Swedish translation. --David Patrick Stearns

      5 out of 5 stars Superb!.......2001-07-29

      This is an wonderful compilation of one of the most incredible voices on record. Whether you are a new or old Bjorling fan -- and who could hear that voice and not be enthralled by it -- this is a fine CD to have. The quality of the recording is excellent, and the range in years, from 1930 to 1959, gives a splendid overview of his dazzling talent. In addition to many of the arias one might expect, there are also lieder and songs in Swedish, as well as some charming duets with Jussi's wife, Anna-Lisa. I have quite a few other Bjorling CDs, and this is one of the best in terms of quality and scope. It is a most worthy addition to any Bjorling collection, regardless of its size.

      3 out of 5 stars Beatiful singing - but where are the Swedish texts?.......2001-06-22

      This is an excellent collection, the best available overview of a great tenor.

      This would get 4 stars but has been marked down for only supplying token texts and translations in the large booklet. It is understandable (sort of) that the Italian opera excerpts don't merit texts and translations as (apart from the Callas recitals series) EMI generally doesn't provide texts with historical issues. However the tempting inclusion of a dozen or so texts to the Italian and Swedish songs makes one all the more aware of the miserliness of not providing all the texts.

      5 out of 5 stars if you like bjorling this is the best thing you can get!.......2000-06-26

      this is so awesome, i love his voice, this is good for anyone, the professional or just someone who wants to hear the greatest tenor of all times! this is so great

      When starting my Bjorling collection, I saw MANY CDs, with his early recordings. I was in a quandry as to what to buy, UNTIL I found this set. TRULY remarkable in many levels.FIRST and foremost, the voice. Captured in all levels, from the earliest to the latest. Truly wonderful, and the Swedish versions are a real treat to hear, don't worry, the Italian versions are here too!!Secondly, the remastering process. This set was remastered at Abbey Studios in London. For the first time I've heard, they actually pressed NEW 78s from the metal plates, and THEN remastered the new discs!!! Inspired, and the results--incredible.I find myself listening to Disc 3 the most. Very interesting, as it is the Swedish one. When the songs are terrific, along with the "standard" tenor arias, and it all comes together, it is PURE MAGIC!! I will admit that due to time limitations of recordings of this era, the opera house Bjorling is not fully conveyed. There are other CDs for that. Most notably "Romeo and Juliet", and for a REAL thrill, his ATLANTA concert, in STEREO, so much so, that the piano is even divided; left hand left, right hand right. Wait a minute, am I playing TWISTER??:-)) But if you want to skip all those unknown labels, you couldn't have a MORE complete set. ALL wit the great remastering I spoke of. Bjorling--His voice will NEVER die, at least in MY house!!!

      5 out of 5 stars Definitive survey of one of the finest singers on record.......1998-09-25

      Jussi Bjoerling was one of the greatest singers of the century. His voice is pure, effortless and yet thrilling. Even better than the quality of the voice is his style. He never scoops up to a note nor does he ever whoop down from one, instead, he uses perfect legato and faultless intonation to deliver the cleanest sound you'll ever hear from a tenor.

      This collection, from the large set of EMI recordings, provides a wonderful survey of Bjoerling's career. He was a straight 'spinto' tenor, that is, between a lyrical tenor (like Pavarotti) and a dramatic tenor (like Domingo). Most of the Puccini roles demand a spinto and those are the roles that Bjoerling was unbeatable in (particularly Des Grieux in Manon Lescaut). However, I think I most prize this collection for the songs sung in English on the last disc. I had some of them on a cassette I wore out in the car and others on a vinyl disc I wore out at home. For shear beauty of voice, the Berceuse by Jocelyn is stunning. For perfect diction, intonation and style, Love but a Day is breathtaking. Buy this set and I guarantee you'll fall in love with what many think is the finest voice on record.

                5 out of 5 stars a modern masterpiece.......2004-04-04

                Only once in a great while does an artists debut album capture such greatness. This album is for sure one of them! It's now in my top 4, with The Gang of Four, Jesus and Mary Chain, and the Velvet Underground. A great music collection isn't complete with out The Jimmy Haig Experience.
