3 out of 5 stars It grew on me.......2003-07-06

At first listening, the hair on the back of my neck stood up. There is a lot of stuff going on including an occasional shrieking monkey. I could not listen to this CD for general relaxing or background music. Out of desperation, because a thunderstorm CD died, we popped this one in to fall asleep to, and it's now a favorite, for that purpose. Perhaps it's just because we live near the LA harbor, like to sleep with the windows open and this sufficiently drowns out the noise. It works and is favored. It also seemed to increase the bird population in the area.

2 out of 5 stars Stop the deluge; I've had enough!,'.......2001-10-16

This CD just about drove me nuts. I understand that rain is to be expected in a rainforest,but after listening to this recording my pets were lining up two-by-two. This CD is for you if you love a long rain and dripping sounds. I hated it; it was monotonous and I could swear that there were portions that were repeated because the person recording it had to fill up some space and nothing was available.Save your money!

3 out of 5 stars Pleasant but overdone on bird sounds, sounding as children.......2000-08-02

The Gentle Persuasion Sound Of Nature series most likely has more promise than experienced in this CD. I love to hear the sounds of rushing waters, rain storms, swaying tree branches with the leaves touching each other and the sounds of birds. So, on the face of things, why not this CD? For some, it may be more valuable or enjoyable.

I like to listen while at the CPU or resting. The sounds of the waters are authentic and refreshing to hear. However, they lack something. Maybe the symetry is not there. Or maybe it is the clash.

As the CD starts suddenly some sounds come through the speakers. I look around and ask myself "Where is the crying child?" Some of the bird sounds replicate crying children. The sounds of children and birds are both beautiful. They are life. The rain forests are alive. They normally live in harmony.

For whatever reasons I find the producers of this CD have perhaps gone for overkill. There is a lack of harmony. Some of the bird sounds are dissonant yet fit in. Others though do not seem authentic, no matter what the writers say.

This CD plays for 60 minutes. The writing on the back cover is very moving. Would that the CD's sounds be so interwoven as the writers depict?

I hope someone else will review this CD just to get another viewpoint. I listen to many nature CDs. I had high hopes when acquiring this VHS at an Internet auction. Perhaps other Gentle Persuasion CDs will be more harmonious. I will try to find either "Electrifying Thunderstorms" or "The Cry of the Loon." Having lived in northern Wisconsin for a while, I have a fine authentic Loon cassette.

The CD is okay. Maybe the fact it was cut in 1989 has something to do with the less-than ideal consistent sound quality. Yet one can easily pick up other CDs with nature sounds or symphonies being played and find better sonority.

Thank you.

4 out of 5 stars Good CD.......2007-03-31

I like the CD. It is very relaxing. I wish there were more rain sound effects, though. When the rain starts, it's really nice but then it ends too quickly and goes back to the nature sounds.

5 out of 5 stars great bird sounds.......2007-02-06

I bought this CD to keep my blue-headed (crested) Amazon parrot company during the day while I'm at work or while I am doing work at home. She absolutely loves it. She calls back and talks to the birds. She listens actively and clearly enjoys the sounds. This is the most rewarding $3 I've spent in a long time. It makes me really happy to know that she's is entertained when no one is home. I will say though that some of the calls on the CD are loud and this isn't a particularly soothing CD. I wouldn't really enjoy doing my yoga practice to this CD.

I have visited and lived tropical areas before, and I thought that the sounds were very realistic. Naturally, you wouldn't find these sounds all happening at once. They are spliced together smoothly to make the cd have continuous sound. I didn't feel like the rain sounds were entirely authenic during a section of the CD, but they were soothing and enjoyable.

5 out of 5 stars Real Bird Sounds.......2005-01-20

Tropical birds do make odd sounds. That is what so great about
tropical rain and bird sounds, the fact that they do not sound
like the backyard birds you hear everyday. Some birds really
do screech, and make crazy sounds. One parrot in your house can
drive you nuts, what would a hundred or a thousand in the trees
be like? However, authentic bird sounds are the reason to get
a bird record and this has them. Many local birds go to the
tropics in the wintertime, so some of them do show up in recordings. The tropical world is a totally different world from
what we in the U.S. are used to, and it is a treat to hear what
such a strange place is like, all the sounds that make it exciting and different.

3 out of 5 stars Careful What You Buy! - Do animals really make these sounds?.......2003-09-21

MAYBE SOMEWHAT LONG, BUT INFORMATIVE, I THINK

This is my 1st CD with Tropical sounds. I have one with rain and thunder and no music(Relaxing with Nature: Thunderstorm - Raindrops) and I think it's Great, but I didn't feel very relaxed listening to this Relax with Tropical Rain Forest CD.

ARE THESE SOUNDS REAL? OR PEOPLE'S VOICES AND A CHILD'S SCREAMS!
Here's why:
I do like that this almost 60 minute CD, has no music; however, after the 1st part of the CD, some of the animal (I'm thinking bird) sounds were too loud. Throughout several parts of the CD, it sounded like there were geese, yes Geese (do they live out there too?), right next to you squawking in your ear. Now I don't know what all the birds are suppose to sound like, but during a few parts in the CD it sounded as if there was a tape playing of people talking really fast. Like someone recorded people talking regularly and then fast-forwarded the voices on the tape so their voices are talking really fast and in a high-pitched, squeaky voice, and then they played their speeded up voices as an animal sound. I tried to listen closely to find out if this was true and tried to make out what they were saying, but I had no luck. A few other times it sounded as thought there was a tribe conversing in the background, who knows, maybe there really was one back there. I also didn't like the animal (maybe a monkey or a bird) that sounded like a little girl screaming; it was a very realistic, high-pitched, blood-curtailing screaming sound.

Why is it when there are only a few things that you don't like about something they're the parts that are the loudest and really stand out the most and you can't get them out of your head? I did, however, like the raining parts and the animal sounds during most of the raining parts.

Again, I don't know much about the tropical birds, animals, or forest and this could very well be a legitimate recording of animal and nature sounds, but even if these are the real thing, I didn't care too much for some of the animal sounds. I certainly couldn't get any sleep listening to this CD and that's the main reason I bought it.

I do love nature so maybe I should try a CD with the "woods" instead of the "rain forest." Anyone know of any or have a good suggestion--with no music though?

I gave it an average 3-star rating (right in the middle) because I wasn't very satisfied with some of the animal sounds, but I have no other tropical cd's to compare it to. I guess that's what you get for a $2 cd (+ $3 ship), but if I knew what this CD was going to be like before I bought it, I would have gladly paid a few extra bucks for a CD that I would actually like. Hope this helps! As of right now, I'm not sure if I want to keep this CD or not, if I do keep it I know it won't get listened to very often.

5 out of 5 stars Shut your eyes and feel the jungle.......2001-06-08

Fantastic relaxing sounds. Shut your eyes and you can feel you are under the canopy of the rain forest...wide variety of bird calls, monkeys, etc.....you can just feel it's morning in the jungle and life is celebrating!

    So much about this CD is great--it is exactly what it says it is... the rain and crickets and everything are wonderful... but then the screaming monkeys start! (and they sound like crying babies!!--not so peaceful then!) They arent constant or anything--there is plenty of time inbetween screams for you to relax just enough to be startled again (or run to check on the baby) the next time the poor baby money cries for help.

        I enjoy sleeping to the various Magic Moods CDs. Of all the ones I have, this one is the one I can't sleep to. Some of the birds have a piercing squawk that's not going to let you sleep. I find that this one is not edited as well as some of the others. Still, it's not all bad. I don't regret having it in my collection but it is the least played of my collection.

        2 out of 5 stars Animal House South.......2000-12-28

        Dense with the cries of animals, birds, and insects, this makes me feel more like I am trapped on the Ark on about the fifteenth day than that I am in a jungle. If you like this sort of noise, good for you. Would you like to buy my hardly played copy? I would rather the livestock had been spaced with the air sounds of a jungle for a more realistic feel.
