4 out of 5 stars Stepping back in time.......2007-05-12

It was great to hear this collection of oldies. Lollipop has to be one of the greates recordings of the era if not of all time. Many of the others are not widely known, but their hits are still great.

5 out of 5 stars Supreme Harmonies.......2007-04-10

Absolutely Fantastic. This collection brings you back to a simpler place and time. It reminds you how beautiful music can be. There is nothing better than close harmonies, beatifully sung.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars June Explores Her Early Years.......2003-06-26

If you are reading this you probably already know who June Christy was and that she was one of the great female vocalists of her (and our) era. Particularly interesting to me in this double album reissue is the Remembering Kenton cuts. I recently acquired several Stan Kenton collections, featuring vocals by June (and also Anita O'Day). Many of these same songs are updated in the mid fifties, some ten to fifteen years after their initial recordings with Kenton. Pete Rugolo wrote the arrangements for these songs and wrote the original charts for the Kenton band. It is very interesting to see how focused the reissue arrangements have become. Songs like "Easy street" and "Across the Alley from the Alamo" are taken up several levels, yet sound very much like their original versions. But most outstanding to listen to are June's interpretations. She grew as an artist in those ten years. These cuts are wonderful and among the best work she did in the twenty odd years she sang professionally. June left us some years ago, but I will always cherish this music. Surely one of the first truly 'modern' women in popular music.

5 out of 5 stars Two splendid albums.......2002-01-12

"This Is June Christy" kicks off with her great single "My Heart Belongs to Only You" then wanders through a nifty group of other great singles. In June's day the great jazz singers all had parallel careers on their labels as pop single artists. That was the music scene then--much less regimented than now. "Those Kenton Days" refashions June's Kenton hits into fresh arrangements inspired by the originals (sometime Pete Rugolo rewriting his own work) and recorded in great stereo. Through this double collection June is at her mistiest, most heartfelt and inventive and Rugolo's orchestral arrangements nothing less than amazing. There was no one like him and no one like them as team. It's fabulous to see June rediscovered by new generations and selling like hotcakes. How surprised and thrilled this adorable lady and most original talent would be.

    4 out of 5 stars Monro CD is sublime.......2000-02-11

    Matt Monro, Brit's answer to Frank Sinatra is often overlooked when it comes to male singers, such as Jack Jones, Al Martino, Buddy Greco, Vic Damone. But Monro, who's best know for crooning the Bond theme "From Russia With Love," has a supple, endearing and rich voice and in this double album he uses it with force and sparingly to swing with some wonderful numbers. Especially good is the oft-overlooked "You've Got Possibilities" from Broadway's Superman. Sid Feller offers some lush arrangements.

        4 out of 5 stars My kids' favorite Jewish music tape -- and mine too!.......1998-06-15

        Craig and Co.'s CD, "My Jewish Discovery" delights us every time we listen to it. I have worn out and scratched my original copy and am ordering another. My second grader likes it and my fifth grader loves it. The music is not traditional songs you know, but new songs, each in a different musical style, from zydeco to rock to rap. My only criticism is a track or two of talking by a famous Yiddish actor. It's okay once, but we don't need to listen to it over and over. The Chanukah rap song, "Go Judah" is our absolute favorite.

          5 out of 5 stars eclectic collection of chanber music.......2007-05-12

          the ahn trio rocks! along with the brodsky quartet, the kronos and other contemporary chamber groups, they combine a modish look with formidable classical technique that they use to assail a variety of melodies. some of the melodies are created specifically for them---so these young ladies are doing very well for themselves.

          and they serve the music so well. each piece requires a different approach--evazen's 'diamond world' is sweet and lovely with a contemporary pop feel, piazzolla's tangos are spiky and rhythmic, for example--and they get it.

          as much of a treat as this cd is, the real treat would be hearing these women live. i'm sure they turn it!

          5 out of 5 stars Excellent Music.......2004-10-02

          The Ahn sisters have a lot of talent and that talen is shown in this CD. My personal favorite is their rendition of "The Heart Asks Pleasure First (from The Piano)". It is just beautiful!!

          For me, the true test of music is how it makes me feel while I listen to it. When I listen to this CD, it makes me feel alive!!! It makes me hunger to listen to other CDs that the Ahn Trio have made. I'll be picking those up soon.

          5 out of 5 stars Ahnbelievable!.......2002-12-18

          These sisters cook with classical ingredients and have found in Kenji Bunch a composer who understands their dynamic and presents them with material that encourages them to expand their considerable talents. There is an attitude here that came off as a bit unbridled on the first CD, TRIOS, and may have set them against the mainstream of classical interpreters. That's a very good thing indeed, for having broken that stranglehold on how things should be played, they have managed to add a bit of steam to the chamber room. Sure it has to do with fashion and sensuality, but it did back in the day, when Wolfgang, Ludwig and Robert and Clara were heating things up. It all got too mannered afterwards, so when artists like the Ahns, or Kennedy, or any other adventurous soul upends the conventions, it is easy to jump on the surface differences as a way of avoiding dealing with the substantive issues at hand.
          To my ears, they provoke the listener in what seemed like too comfortable assumptions about Piazzola, infused interest and intrigue into Bernstein where little besides Broadway and Americana star excess existed before, and have taken a Pat Metheny/David Bowie piece and brought classical drama to a terrific composition. Both writers should be duly flattered and impressed by the interpretation. And as I mentioned, with Bunch, they have a writer best suited to their own dynamic.
          I am sure it helps that a set of twins are playing with their sister. There is a telepathy here that indicates they know when they are going to leap off the conventional cliff, and so the others respond by catching them in mid air. This disc makes for seductive and exciting listening. Listening to the Bosendorfer ring off the sensuality of the cello and the passion of the violin and that unbridled element is a source of wonder and enchantment.

          5 out of 5 stars These gals just wanna have fun..........2002-07-11

          I do hope the cover of this CD doesn't scare away "serious" classical lovers! This is definitely classical. It's a collection of shorter classics, but that sure doesn't mean it's aimed for those with short attention spans like one reviewer suggests. This music is, to quote, "charged and alive"! A lot of "today people" who are leery about classical music are likely to find themselves wound up in music especially composed for the Ahn trio by such composers as Henji Bunch and Eric Emazan. Diverse composers such as Argentine tango composer Astor Piazzolla and Leonard Bernstein are included, and most diverse of all, perhaps, is David Bowie.

          These gals touch all the basses and show that there is indeed life in classical music.

          5 out of 5 stars AWESOME!.......2002-05-12

          The Ahn Trio was here in small-town, Bremerton, WA. this evening, and I was fortunate enough to see in concert and talk with them after their fabulous show. Their musical performance is stunning, and their presences on stage is awesome--they bring the audience to them...they are free with talking with the audience. If ever you get the chance to see them, it is definitely worth it.

          4 out of 5 stars Wonderfully fine performance.......2004-10-10

          This is one opera I have been searching for for a very long time. I read about it in a book about Sullivan. Of course, when they wrote of the opera, they showed the scene, in drawing, where Rebecca informs Ivanhoe of the battle with the Black Knight. The drawing (based on the actual performance when it premiered) grabbed my attention completely. I just wondered what this composer could do with real opera (I loved his operettas completely, and they showed quite often Sullivan was quite capable of deep emotional pathose, even if in the end he was spoofing it more than reflecting it).

          Well, all the years of searching and waiting to know were not a waste. Firstly, I have never been able to locate a score of this work (as I have done with many ancient operas or forgotten ones), so I was just as in the dark as anyone else as to what to expect. I was incredibly surprised, not to mention, thrilled with the results. No, Sullivan is no Wagner, nor is he even Verdi, but he is wonderfully beautiful in his own right. Why this work has not entered into the opera houses, I have no clue, excepting maybe because it is English opera, which never does well. Speaking of "ENGLISH OPERA", here we have a recording where for the most part we CAN understand the words (a thing I never seem to find in professional recordings of English opera, or American opera; they may as well sing in gibberish, for that is exactly what it sounds like -- perhaps the composers have no clue what works in their own language?). The performers, as we know, are not professionals, but rather semi-professionals. There are some uneven performances, and sometimes the characters are not quite as developed as one would like, there are even times the orchestra sounds like it lost the beat (but this is EXTREMELY RARE), the sound quality of the recording is OK, but nothing stellar, however, it is not bad either. Yet, in spite of these drawbacks, we CAN and DO understand the words, and for once a rather strange sounding English libretto sounds natural and unforced with stupid poetry that really leaves you laughing. These wonderfully dedicated performers, no matter their individual difficulties, give us a wonderfully vivid performance where we can finally understand the opera (like all our Italian friends do when Italian opera is sung for them). That was such a treat for me, to finally actually understand the words of opera sung in my own language.

          What makes this opera such a thrill, at least for me, is the natural fall of the words and the music, especially in the recitatives. Unlike most English opera where the musical line sounds completely foreign to the natural lilt of the words, Sullivan has an uncanny way of writing lines, melodies, and recitatives that flow naturally from the language itself. That was a really exciting experience to endure. For once, I didn't wish that someone would teach the composers to listen to the flow of English to gain an insight into melody. Maybe it was all those operettas that he wrote prior to this "serios opera" that taught him what he knew, or maybe, he just had a good ear for his own language and enough sense to know that trying to graft Italian or German musical idioms onto things just wasn't the correct choice.

          Is it a great work? Well, no, it will never get into the record books as a perfect opera, nor will it shove Mozart or Wagner off the stage, but it is really quite good just the same. Even with all the flaws this recording has, I am so glad it is out there so I could at last hear what music fleshed out that old drawing I saw in a book all those years ago. Though Sullivan's music is not anywhere near as dramatic as one may imagine it should be, it fits well with the scene and the over all concept of the work.

          I really recommend this recording, for it, at least for now, is the only one we have (and if they make a professional one, I really hope they screen the singers well, no big names if they can't sing English so we can understand it; Sullivan, as with Wagner, you MUST understand the words or the meaning is completely lost). The entire recording is really quite enjoyable, and it doesn't disappoint.

          3 out of 5 stars Not ideal, but all there is.......2000-08-05

          If you are interested in Arthur Sullivan's Music without Gilbert, this is one of the works you should have in your collection. Unfortunately the quality of the performance is inconsistent. The orchestra is at times good, at others sloppy. The soloists are also of varying quality. This is, after all, a recording by a semi-professional group. That said, if you are willing to accept the flaws, this is currently the only version on disc. Perhaps someday the BBC will record a version, as they did with Sullivan's "Rose of Persia". In the current recording, the most pleasing selections are: The Act 3 Scene 2 ensemble "Look where thy moody father walks apart", Friar Tuck's rollicking "Ho, Jolly Jenkin", The Templar's passionate scene "Woo thou thy snowflake", and Rebecca's evocative aria "Lord of our chosen race". Not all it could be, but it's all we've got.
