Editorial Reviews

Suicide took mid-70's NYC underground attitudes to extreme, but logical, ends. Singer Alan Vega's often terrifyingly apocalyptic vision was perfectly complimented by keyboardist Martin Rev's pulsating, sizzling accompaniment on rhythm box and synthesizer. Their psychotic electronic blues was the sound of American culture sliding towards destruction. On stage, they were routinely heckled by audiences unappreciative of their minimalist explorations (they actually incited riots while on tour in Europe opening for Elvis Costello). Ghost Riders is a CD version of a former tape-only live performance from 1981 commemorating the band's 10th anniversary. The recording is surprisingly good and the performance is excellent.--Mike Corrigan

Product Description
From the All Music Guide:
Originally a cassette-only release, this live recording at Walker Arts Center in Minneapolis marked Rev and Vega's 10th anniversary. And while not as deliberately offensive as some of their earlier live gigs, this is a compelling, interesting document of their ever-evolving stage show. Not as transcendent as their debut album, but well worth the effort. Reissued on CD by the French Danceteria label in 1990. — John Dougan

Slim Whitmans Greatest Hits.......2006-01-30

Any lover of his style cannot help but love this CD. The yodeling in particular is the reason I purchased this, and Slim did not dissapoint. In fact, the unique style he delivers brings this folk-art form to a new level.

Great Album.......2004-12-31

This is a great album...brings back a lot of memories of sitting by the fire with my grandpa listening to Slim. This music reminds me a lot of the style played by a band in Indianapolis that doesn't exist anymore. I think their name was dearnt. Slim Whitman's influence is obvious in their style and even their clothing.

The Greatest Western Themes.......2007-04-01

Great songs, I always loved cowboys shows and this just makes you remember them.

Great Stuff...Just, Not Enough.......2006-03-17

Well, I not only love films from the Western genre, but I also love the music that goes along with it. Morricone,Tiomkin, Bernstein,Rose...if you are also a lover of the themes and songs from the great Westerns, you know you could hardly go wrong when all those names turn up on the same album. "The Greatest Western Themes" performed by The Ghost Rider Orchestra includes all those guys mentioned above on this album. And not only that, but the renditions and performance is terrific. The sound quality of this little album is also very good. The only problem is there's just not enough!

There are 10 tracks of mostly instrumental great stuff.(okay, 'The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is not entirely instrumental, but who has ever understood the words anyway?).
Opening with the Theme from "The Magnificent 7"(Bernstein), right away it gets you in that Western mood. Three great from Morricone include, "For A Few Dollars More",G,B&U, and a real treat for spaghetti Western lovers, "Once Upon A Time In The West". A rousing rendition of "Bonanza" will make you want to saddle up with 'Pa' and the boys, and a sweet sounding "Shenandoah", may bring a good nostalgic feeling. Also included is "Ghost Riders In The Sky", "Streets of Laredo", "High Chaparral" and the beautiful theme from "High Noon"(Do not forsake me...)

These are a pretty good selection and representation of the Western themes from films(and TV) we loved, but at only 25 minutes, it's just not enough. This album was originally produced in 1986(most recently 2004), so let's just stick with some that could have been added from before the original production. A few that come to mind are the sentimental Green Leaves of Summer" from John Wayne's "The Alamo",theme from "Red River", "Oh My Darling" from "My Darling Clementine" for Ford fans, and even along more recent lines, anything of Bob Dylan"s from Peckinpah's "Pat Garrett and Billy The Kid", would have been a nice addition as well.

So a short but sweet album for Western lovers. Might get the mood right for a Western style party or Bar-b-que, or nice to take you away for a little bit while stuck in traffic(those who live in So. Cal will know what I mean when I say..stuck on the 405 Freeway!)

Saddle Up and "Happy Trails To You"(Oh - That would have been another good one!)...Laurie

Suicide: Ghost Riders/Half Alive.......1998-06-12

Once the Suicide sound has entered your mind, you'll never forget it. Hypnotic, uplifting, revolutionary. The American Kraftwerk. The only band that can remind you of Alan Ginsberg, the Velvets, Daft Punk, James Brown, ? and the Mysterians and the Last Poets all at once. Elvis talking in his sleep. The simple mantra of the X-pel-air fan overlaid with the rant of the corner preacher who has seen the truth. Once you've tried it, you'll need it all, but, covering their entire early career, this compilation provides the perfect initiation. Suicide, the last sound you'll ever hear . .

Don't think twice.
