Amazon.com

A Hundred Miles or More carries the subtitle A Collection, and what a curious collection it is--cuts from soundtracks, side projects, and tribute albums, plus guest duets on other artists' albums and five previously unreleased tracks. In other words, this is a collection of Alison Krauss performances that have never appeared on an Alison Krauss album, though it holds together better than such a grab-bag approach might suggest. Highlights such as her duet with Brad Paisley on "Whiskey Lullaby" and her a cappella rendition of "Down to the River to Pray" from O Brother, Where Art Thou? will be familiar to most Krauss fans, though it's doubtful that many share her infatuation with retro rocker John Waite (with whom she revives his "Missing You" and duets on a cover of Don Williams's "Lay Down Beside Me."). Other projects represented range from Disney to the Chieftains to the Louvin Brothers (she duets with James Taylor on their "How's the World Treating You." There's minimal contribution from her Union Station band--making this a solo release by default--and little information to indicate whether the previously unreleased tracks were outtakes from earlier releases or recently recorded for this one. --Don McLeese

Album Description

"A Hundred Miles or More: A Collection" is comprised of 16 tracks, highlighting Alison Krauss's career outside of her traditional releases with longtime band Union Station. The album features Krauss's collaboration with John Waite on the single "Missing You," as well as Krauss's contributions to film soundtracks, including the Oscar-nominated songs "The Scarlet Tide" and "You Will Be My Ain True Love," written for the motion picture "Cold Mountain," and "Down to the River to Pray" from the film "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" Known for her collaborations, Krauss also includes several duets in the collection such as the 2003 hit with Brad Paisley, "Whiskey Lullaby," and her duet with James Taylor for the tribute album "Livin', Lovin', Losin': Songs of the Louvin Brothers," "How's the World Treating You." The collection debuts five new songs: "You're Just a Country Boy," "Jacob's Dream," "Simple Love," "Lay Down Beside Me," and "Away Down the River," all of which feature Krauss as a producer.

3 out of 5 stars Music is missing Union Station - unfortunately.......2007-08-03

AKUS is a favorite of mine -- particularly their live CD. This collection falls a little flat. It is good, but less than I expected.

5 out of 5 stars back water revival.......2007-07-31

I love her sweetness and clarity. She revisits gospel and olde tyme toe tappers and make you want to stomp your feet, get up and clap and say "Amen". I don't believe Alison Krauss could produce any thing that you wouldn't like. Sort of like Emmy Lou Harris. Just gifted.

4 out of 5 stars Fantastic Album.......2007-07-23

I really liked the album especially "Missing You" with John Waite. Any fan of Alison will like this album.

5 out of 5 stars Relaxing Music.......2007-07-18

This cd is wonderful. It is great to listen to in the car when you need something soft and relaxing. Alison Krauss has the voice of an angel. I highly recommend this cd.

4 out of 5 stars Not a traditional bluegrsss album, but worth listening to several times before judging.......2007-07-17

Many remakes dot this album. Some very surprising collabrations. AK could have done very standard remakes, but instead reinvented many songs. I prefer Simple Love, which is not a remake, Sawing on Strings, a very traditional bluegrass song. These are two songs she is singing on her current tour with Union Station. She does not sing any of the duet songs on this album on her current tour.

5 out of 5 stars Looking forward to the next cd.......2007-07-15

There are artists that it's a given............when their cd hits the shelves, I'll buy it. Brett Dennen is one of those artists. He's made quite an impression because I've only just heard of him, in fact, just last night he opened for Ben Folds, who opened for John Mayer in Hartford CT.

Met him briefly after his set, while Ben Folds was playing. Didn't miss much there.

I'm sure there's lots more good stuff to come from this guy.

4 out of 5 stars Awesome and will develop skills.......2007-07-05

It's easy to see which musicians have influenced Brett Dennen - everyone is in agreement (see below for the timeless names). Nonetheless, I think most people also agree that he has his own style that differentiates him from those who influenced him. His sound is undeniably refreshing. Like many who posted, I believe there is much room for him to grow in light of his young modern talent, and he undoubtedly will. He is still young and it will be interesting to see his style develop over time. 4 stars to "So Much More" in the hopes that Brett will come out with a new album that confirms my belief and merits 5.

3 out of 5 stars Great voice.......2007-06-14

I heard "Ain't No Reason" used in the TV show HOUSE and knew I had to buy the cd. His voice is fantastically soothing - definitely akin to Tracy Chapman. While "Ain't No Reason" is in continuous play on my ipod, the other songs haven't really gripped me yet. I think it's a good cd, but perhaps one that will take me a while to really get into.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent .......2007-06-07

This is terrific, low key, beautiful tunes. He sounds so much like Xavier Rudd (and maybe a bit like Paul Simon). In fact, I think that if you made a mix of Dennen and Rudd, people would think it was the same artist. If you like this, check out Rudd.

4 out of 5 stars Ain't No Reason.......2007-06-03

I can't really comment on the whole c.d., as I've only heard one song. I heard it on House, the television show, on an episode entitled "Family". It of course was "Ain't No Reason". I had to look up the lyrics again, just to make sure I heard them right, but I had. It evoked instant emotion in me, bringing tears to my eyes. It tied in beautifully with what the episode was about, and brought to my mind some issues that had been going on in my life. I found it haunting, sad, yet tinged with hope. I came here to see what others thought, and after reading the mixed reviews I still am not certain whether to purchase it or not. But I had to say that I did love that one song, and I have rated it with 4 stars. I love good lyrics, and it had them.

You'd think there wouldn't be much more to present by a songwriter who recorded three albums in his lifetime and has been dead since 1974. However, interest in Nick Drake's riveting music has grown enormously in the new millennium. Rarities were added to a number of posthumous collections, but with Family Tree his estate has brought forth an hour of music that predates his first album, Five Leaves Left. This set illuminates Drake's musical background, with his mother and sister appearing, and even Drake himself on clarinet for a Mozart trio. He covers traditional numbers as well as songs by Dylan, Blind Boy Fuller, and Jackson C. Frank. There are clear links to his own early compositions, including a couple early versions that appeared on his debut. Some of this has circulated on bootlegs over the years, but here assembled and sonically polished, it radiates with warmth. Recorded in casual circumstances, there are bits of chatter and laughter between songs, painting a picture of a happy, loving home scene. --David Greenberger

4 out of 5 stars fans will love this.......2007-07-26

It's hard to listen to Nick Drake and not be reminded of those VW commercials where "Pink Moon" played while hipsters rode through the dark in their cabriolet. Nick Drake has the voice that you hear in your dreams at night. His new release, Family Tree, contains songs he recorded with his mother and family before having a record deal. Nick Drake masterfully fingers folk songs on his guitar and sometimes the piano. I have always admired his skill of making a few instruments sound like many, but what I found most impressive were the tracks where his mother and sister sang.

Music obviously ran in the Drake family, and it's difficult to listen to the CD without feeling that you are in the Drake living room yourself. Although I found Family Tree to be a fascinating look inside the Drake household, I would only recommend it for die hard Nick Drake fans, and would recommend newcomers to start with Bryter Layter or Pink Moon.

4 out of 5 stars Family Tree.......2007-07-26

If this is going to be your first Nick Drake album I recomend you buy insted Pink Moon.

This is a recopilation of Drake's first recordings in his home and a friend house, the quality is no the best but I guaranty that you forget about that becuse of his powerfull and full of soul voice, there are some tracks of his mother singing that gives you an idea to where he got his musical liking and also a duet of him and his sister

The packages is a soft one with a large booklet with writings of his sister and friends, it's rather moving and it also has some pictures of the family.

So if you want to know more about Nick Drake I recomend this album becuse it has, even then when he was starting, a lot of fealing and something that good voices of today fail to have and that's heart.

I am not an old person talking, I have 24 and I recomend this to you hopping that Drake's magic remains live for a long time, this is ageless.

4 out of 5 stars Come Into The Garden.......2007-07-14

If you're seeking this out, I don't have to tell you what a special & rare talent Nick Drake is. Suffice it to say, this one is for die-hard fans. Those seeking proper introduction should proceed directly to Way To Blue or Pink Moon.

One of the most prized recordings in my collection has long been the Nick Drake bootleg, Tamworth-In-Arden 1967/68. I usually avoid buying boots, but couldn't resist the plethora of completely unheard/unreleased songs. Now, most of that material has been lovingly compiled (with a few surprises, as well as omissions) & cleaned up considerably in terms of the sound quality. Half of the songs are written by Drake & half are rather obscure covers, including 3 songs by the legendary Jackson C. Frank. Fans of Drake will hardly be disappointed.

Among the self-penned selections, the real highlights are the haunting "Leaving Me Behind" and "Come Into The Garden". "Rain" and "Bird Flew By" reveal a talent that is nearly fully formed. "Strange Meeting II" & "Been Smoking Too Long" were included on the Fruit Tree box set appendix, Time Of No Reply. Both are welcome here. (According to the liner notes that collection is soon to be re-released).

More than likely, fans will not be as thrilled with the two songs, written & sung by Nick's mother, Molly. But to be frank, I like them both even if they are a bit jarring amidst the rest of the set. Its nice to hear where Nick got some of his talent from.

Lovingly compiled & with copious liner notes (Nick's sister, Gabrielle's are quite moving) this is certainly worth the price of admission for longtime & new found fans of this brilliant and truely unique artist.

Those who spent (or are spending) their formative years watching Kermit and Miss Piggy dance their special interspecies dance will revel in this spectacular, positively historic new Muppets CD, released just in time for the 25th anniversary of Jim Henson's The Muppet Show. A 20-page insert booklet, complete with color photos, details the fascinating history of Muppet music. Remember when Sesame Street's rendition of Jeff Moss's "Rubber Duckie" hit the kiddie pop charts? This 27-song CD harvests favorite and lesser-known recordings from feature films and from the original The Muppet Show, stringing songs ranging from Piero Umiliani's "Mahna Mahna" to Tony Burrello's "There's a New Sound" (the sound that's made by worms) together with skits and grand pronouncements and goofy sound effects like an old-time vaudeville show. A stunning variety of musical styles are showcased in this witty, wonderful collection that reminds us that a world without Fozzie Bear and Gonzo and Kermit and Miss Piggy would be less fuzzy indeed. --Karin Snelson

I thought this was a DVD. My 15mo old loves Elmo & Co. However, she pays no attention to this CD at all.

5 out of 5 stars Muppets Rock.......2007-07-04

I had been looking all over for Kermit's songs, and this has them all. It sounds very good and now rests in my ipod.

4 out of 5 stars Wonderful Music for a dreary day!.......2007-06-12

This is an excellent CD for a rainy day or for when you're just plain down. It will bring a smile to your face and for most people a song they can sing along with.
Though some of the included tracks could have been left out simply because they aren't technically songs, they are all fun and deserve the time they are alotted.
I put this in my player whenever I feel down and it always brings a smile to my face and by the time it's gotten to "Rainbow Connection" I'm singing along at the top of my lungs!
Highly recommended for anyone that loves the Muppets, both old and new!

5 out of 5 stars Not a catch-all, but a nice compilation.......2007-05-15

This is basically a Muppets "Greatest Hits" CD and is good for Muppet fans who don't have any of the original movie soundtracks. It combines Muppet Show classics with the best songs of the movies up through Muppets From Space. Will you recognize everything from the first 14 tracks? Probably not. I'm 29 and don't remember them all. Are there a few songs missing from the movies that should be here in favor of some of them? Maybe. But all of the really important ones are here.

Kermit's "Bein' Green" is one of my favorites, as it's sung in a very heartfelt manner. The big ones from the Muppet Movie, like "Rainbow Connection" and "Movin' Right Along", are also here. I particularly like the "Monologue with Fozzie Bear" track, as it is very indicative of the intelligent silliness that the Muppets were known for in their shows and movies. There are also a couple of Statler & Waldorf monologues hidden after a couple of tracks that aren't labelled on the CD, so listen to the tracks in their entirety or you could miss them. And, of course, "Mahna Mahna" is a classic that I only recognized from commercials (primarily because of my age) but is one of those catchy ditties that will easily become stuck in your head for a week to follow after hearing it.

Highly recommended for the fan who has no Muppet music in their collection and wants a nice summary of the classics on one CD.

While the idea of infusing a weekly TV series with a Broadway musical ethos isn't exactly a new one--think Randy Newman's ambitious Cop Rock--it became something of a turn-of the-century television mini-trend. But few have reached as far--or succeeded--like this November 2001 episode of Fox Network's Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Penned by series creator-producer Joss Whedon and performed by Sarah Michelle Gellar and cast, it's a loving, loopy musical pastiche that takes potshots at everything from Andrew Lloyd Webber to alt-rock. Paralleling the show's lovable pop culture tweaking, the musical styles here (the episode's musical conceit is a curse visited upon Buffy's hometown of Sunnydale) range from a patent footlight chorus of demons being interrupted by Gellar's hard-rocking stake thrusts on "Going Through the Motions" to Spike the Vampire's goth-metal complaint "Rest in Peace," with everything from parking tickets and mustard stain removal to climactic duels with the supernatural getting the Broadway send-up. Also includes strong orchestral score-suites from three other episodes, as well as Whedon and wife Kai Cole's demo for "Something to Sing About." --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Defeintly worth listening to!.......2007-07-21

I've got a theroy- is one of my faveroit songs on here you get to hear almost everyone voice in one song the styles switch as different people sing!
Rest in Peace- spike sings here apparently hes got a awesome voice theres a pull to this song and its just fun to listen to you hear his passion for Buffy!
Dawns Lament-Dawn has a sweet high voice but not a lot of singing parts I really liked this cause it showed her vocal maturity! It also shows her doubt in the love from her friends!
What you Feel- Wow very jazzy and upbeat. The dancing demons voice is deep it sounds good you get to hear dawn again!
Standing- Giles and Tara sing its very emotional (i don't like Giles voice as much as Taras voice)
Under your spell (reprise)- You get to hear Tara's voice she has some range in this song thats nice. She also has a very good lyrics!
Where do we go from Here- the end of the battle this song is sung you hear everyone in this song. Its got a melcoly underbeat but its kind of sad and nostalgic as well as got the feeling of not being defeated! Its a good song!

4 out of 5 stars I wish for a CD of suites.......2007-07-08

In all honesty, this is a fun CD. Maybe these aren't all professional singers, and maybe some of them have some pretty awful voices (some have lovely ones, though. Let's remember that), but listening to this CD brings back the images from the episode. They're catchy songs, easy to listen to and sing along. Some are better than others, some are silly ("The Mustard" and "The Parking Ticket" just make me laugh, but aren't really that important...), and some give me a momentary spasm of pain ("Dawn's Lament", nasal and painful - good thing the ballet piece is so nice it drives this out of your mind).

I think this is probably only good for fans of the show. I can't see some random person who has no previous love of the episode wanting these songs. They aren't of high quality. They're simply enjoyable for those who love the episode and want the option to sing along and have fun to it. It's a great CD - for some people.

But then you hit the end. Three spectacular tracks that, if you ask me, are what make this CD actually worth it. In addition to the songs from "Once More with Feeling", we get three scores.

The first suite is from another great episode: "Restless". Here, each theme comes out solidly. "Willow's Nightmare" is a creepy, confusing, sort of Middle-Eastern piece with a very nice feel to it, all taken straight from the episode, bringing to mind the wonderful images. The rest of the suite brings together creepy, intriguing singing and lovely sounds that end with the images fresh on your mind. The very ending is perfect - you can almost hear the words from the episode hiding behind the music, barely spoken and breathed aloud. "You think you know. What's to come. What you are. You haven't even begun." A perfect atmosphere and beautiful music with it.

Next, we're presented with a suite from the incredible episode "Hush". Each moment brings to mind matching scenes from the episode. There is the perfect air of mystery, fear, and that eerie sense of something creepy about to happen. There's the sort of choir-like moment, blending into the lovely, romantic "First kiss" part, and ending on a wholly creepy and terrifyingly wonderful note. A superb episode has this excellent score to add to its wonder.

Finally, we're presented with the incredible "Sacrifice", from the episode "The Gift". This is the direct piece used in that incredible episode and it's impossible to listen to it without feeling your heart move. If there was ever a better piece to put on a CD of Buffy music, this is it. You can see everything that happens, and it's just so perfect and complete you can almost cry. The whole piece is just bound to give you chills and bring back those wonderfully painful memories from the episode.

Honestly, while I do love "Once More with Feeling" and the great, fun songs it has, I find that I play the orchestral pieces here much more often than the others. It's those pieces that invoke the great memories and bring tears to my eyes. They're inexplicably powerful in a way that only one song of the musical can match ("Under Your Spell/Standing (Reprise)", without a doubt one of the best songs of the musical). The songs you can get in the episode. The suites are less accessable. I'd opt to buy this just for that.

In summary: No, this isn't spectacular. It's not of extremely high quality. But it's fun and any Buffy fan can appreciate it. Overall, it's great to sing along to, and the scores and suites are a HUGE bonus. Certainly recommended to all fans of the show, but perhaps not to others who can't quite understand all of the jokes and humor.

But I still wish for some more suites...

3 out of 5 stars Soundtrack CD not as good as Music in the actual episode .......2007-06-21

I am very surprized that nearly 300 people reviewed this, and not one person seemed to notice that the songs on this CD are not exactly the same as what actually appeared in the Once More With Feeling episode. Some of the songs are slightly edited, have different mixes, even different vocals and the major thing that disappointed me is that there was some important dialogue that was deleted that they should have kept as part of the songs. For example, Dawn's line "The hardest thing in this world to do, is to live in it" nor is the part where Sweet (the Demon) realizes that Buffy is Dawn's sister and says something to effect "The Slayer, bring her to me, I want to see the Slayer Burn" was also omitted.

Get your Koombayayas out - 76 bloody trombones... (that wasn'y included either....

Play the DVD - the soundtrack is much better.

5 out of 5 stars Sing along.......2007-05-28

Funny thing is you would never notice the plumbing contractor in his construction vehicle belting out the tunes of this CD. Well thats me, i cant help myself. the series has become such an important part of me... the music resonates my memories and feelings of the series in its entirety not only the content of each song. Where do we go? from here..............
Thankyou Josh

The 60's aren't so far away when you hear this CD. Brings back memories!

4 out of 5 stars It's both a Time and an Interdimensional Transport Device!.......2007-05-24

I haven't bought the CD release of the original 3-disc LP. I just want to comment on some of what other reviewers have said. I agree, it's funny to look back on that time as a middle-aged person. I was 15 when Woodstock happened, and couldn't go. Although it may have been one of the first (and certainly one of the largest) examples of hippie capitalism, it didn't seem like a product to us at the time. We felt that a magical change was taking place in the world, and that we stood at an unusual crossroads in history where we could, simply by choosing to do it, change the world for the better. This was a time when music could actually change you, when audiences and performers entered into a symbiosis and used their combined energy and consciousness to explore the realms of ecstasy!...and I'm NOT exaggerating...drugs were not even necessary. When the movie and then the album came out, we kids who didn't go could share the experience in some small way, at least in our minds. In that respect, Woodstock was actually experienced by far more than the 250,000 people who were actually there, and it became an event in our national consciousness. Both the movie and the album blew my little teenage mind, and I could spend many the happy afternoon listening to the album and vicariously being there. To me the proof of the magicality of the event is that the magic comes through even though technically, both film and album are of basically terrible quality. The camera work in the movie is frustrating and grainy. Almost the entire footage of Hendrix has his mic stand obscuring him. Members of bands' rhythm sections are almost never shown. The music and the video for parts of the Who's segment are not from the same part of the song. And the sound quality throughout the LP is pretty mediocre, and some performances suffer from technical difficulties (which is understandable). But for some reason, the magic still comes through....

3 out of 5 stars John Sebastian ... "far-out!"?.......2007-04-04

I keep listening to this cd version & wondering why it seems different to me than the original 3 disc vinyl from the seventies. Where is the studio version of CSN&Y's "Woodstock" that opens the film!? Was that on the vinyl? I loved the Wavy Gravy stuff about, "People we got the Times, we got the times ..." and Max Yasgur, "I'M A FARMER!" But wasn't there a long, "far-out", announcement from John Sebastian about a baby being born at the site? And him going-on, hippy-dippy, about how that baby was gonna be "far-out!" That's been cut from the DVD too. Why, I wonder ... the dialogue was such an important signature of the event. Did the producers decide, 30 years later, that some of that drug/high dialouge was really just embarrasing or what? I wonder. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

5 out of 5 stars Golden Oldie.......2007-02-25

It's pretty funny now to think of Woodstock as an oldie. I was about 15 when the concert happened, and found out about it too late to attend. So when the movie came out I had to see it a couple times and then pick up the three album set. For many in my generation this was our concert weather we attended it live or not. The music on this set show cased some groups like Santanna who had regional followings, but weren't known too well on the national scene. After the release of the movie and albums Santana joined the ranks of super stars.

If you haven't seen the movie, then I suggest seeing it before geting the music because there are pars of the album (CD's) that don't seem to make as much sense if you haven't seen the movie. But since the CD's are practically taken verbatim from the movie you can visit the movie in you mind any time you play the CD's.

Some time back I heard some conservative talk show host ask, "So what was the big deal about Woodstock anyway? A bunch of kids getting drunk, stoned, and listening to music together? Hell! We did that in our Frat house and never found it to be too special." What made Woodstock so enduring was that it showcased what was the essence of the Hippie movement at the time. For the most part it showed that it was possible to have a huge crowd of people get together for a few days and remain civil towards one and other...Regardless of the weather conditions. It almost made us believe that peaceful existance em mass was possible......Of course this was shown to be somewhat a fluke because both concerts and peace marches after Woodstock turned out to have some of the wors violence...Such as the Stones concert at Candle Stick Park. But the idea of Woodstock was at least hopeful for a time, and gave hose of us who were involved in the Hippie movement something to be proud of.

One last thing. I do have the DVD set too. As I said it is kind of funny to think of Woodstock as an "Oldie." When I watched the DVD and listened to some of the interviews with kids who were my age at the time I remember thinking how right on the money they were when I saw the movie as a kid....As an older adult I have to laugh at how much we thought we understood of the world and how little we actually did. That was something no one could convince us of when we were teens with all the answers.

1 out of 5 stars How ironic!!!.......2006-08-18

I had a scathing review of the "Woodstock" film posted for about a month. Now, it's mysteriously gone. Whatever happened to "freedom"? Whatever happened to "free your mind, man"? In a way, the censorship of my ideas is a huge compliment. Sixties-era hypocrisy was never hard to prove, but now it's a slam dunk. Was it a movie and a concert? Yes. Was it "revolutionary" and a tool of "change"? I think not. Thirty-seven years later, Woodstock is nothing but a fine example of youth wasted on the young. There is no amount of censorship that will hide that truth!!!

Highlight versions of cast recordings are by definition a compromise, and this reduction of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom of the Opera is no exception. Weighing in at 59 minutes, it's over 40 minutes shorter than the two-disc version, excising many musical scenes that convey the flow and impact of the show (which include, admittedly, a lot of patter and screaming). On the other hand, all the hits are here--"Think of Me," "Angel of Music," the title tune, "The Music of the Night," "All I Ask of You," "Masquerade," and "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again"--and Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman are still on hand to make their distinctive contributions to the original London cast. So if you're looking for a convenient, inexpensive single disc that will let you enjoy Lloyd Webber's scrumptious melodies without having to immerse yourself in the action, this just might be for you. --David Horiuchi

2 out of 5 stars Music of the Night????????.......2007-02-28

I really liked the idea of a highlights cd; however, The Music of the Night is not the same one that is on the original two-disc cd. The words aren't even the same. If you enjoy Music of the Night, skip this cd. Otherwise, this cd would be 5 stars.

5 out of 5 stars Great short version!.......2006-12-06

If you only want to hear the songs from this musical, this one is for you. But if you want the full version, get the 4-disc version. I listen to this version in my car when I'm on the road, but I listen to the 4-disc version at home. Both versions are worth the purchase.

5 out of 5 stars A long time favorite.......2006-08-26

This is one of my most treasured CDs. The voices of the cast are incredible! "Think of Me" and "All I Ask of You" are 2 of my favorites. If you enjoy the story behind Phantom, yu will like this soundtrack.

5 out of 5 stars The Best Recording of this Show Available.......2006-04-21

I think that this is the best PHANTOM soundtrack out there:

1)It has the original London cast, the best.
2)It cuts out the more risqu? parts of the show (believe me, there are some), making it "appropriate for the whole family."
3)The entire CD is on one disc, so you can go through the show w/o switching discs.
4)The only song that the movie soundtrack has on it that this doesn't is "Learn to Be Lonely," which appears in the credits, and isn't really a great song anyways.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2006-03-14

I bought this CD as a birthday gift for my boyfriend. We had misplaced the one that we had and needed a new one. This is one of our favorite cd's. Such beautiful music.

4 out of 5 stars 80's nostalgia.......2007-06-11

Remember the 1980's, when all we had to worry about was nuclear war instead of rampant terrorism? Well, for those like me who grew up during that decade, this CD is an overflow of nostalgia. It contains some of the best songs of the 80's.

Songs like WALK LIKE AN EGYPTIAN (the Bangles), WALKING ON SUNSHINE (Katrina and the Waves), HEAVEN IS A PLACE ON EARTH (Belinda Carlisle) and I KNOW THERE'S SOMETHING GOING ON (Frida) are almost pure nostalgia straight-from-the-bottle.

For me, the 2 best songs are MANEATER (Hall & Oates) and HANDS TO HEAVEN (Breathe). MANEATER is the best song Hall & Oates ever wrote, and it also describes quite a few sadistic women I've met in my life. HANDS TO HEAVEN takes me back to the first time I heard it. It was in boot camp & was the first time they allowed us to listen to the radio. For a few brief moments I was able to in my mind get away from the United States Navy!

I've never cared for Huey Lewis & The News, but POWER OF LOVE is their best song & the song they're most known for. I like Pat Benatar, but never thought LOVE IS A BATTLEFIELD was one of her best songs. I would have much preferred SHADOWS OF THE NIGHT, but that's just my opinion.

The biggest gaffe on the album in my mind is Falco's ROCK ME AMADEUS. I never cared for it, even though I'm a big fan of classical music (including Mozart!). Never seemed there was much substance to it, and it's little wonder that Falco was basically a 1-hit wonder.

All-in-all, however, the majority of the songs on this album fit nicely for everyone who went to High School during the 80s. If you graduated from HS in 1980-something, give this CD a try!

5 out of 5 stars AWSOME 80's MUSIC.......2007-05-12

If you like 80's music, then this is one cd you must have in your collection. The selection is good and the flow of the music is just right. As you listen to it it will bring back memories of those special moments back in high school.

4 out of 5 stars Awesome 80's.......2007-05-07

This is a mix of some awesome 80's music. You will love it!

4 out of 5 stars More Pure 80's.......2007-04-15

A good mix of great 80's songs. Since most bands from the 80's were one hit wonders (or really close to that), you get the music you love without all the extra "filler" songs you don't want.

4 out of 5 stars Rock Me Amadeus.......2007-03-19

This is a nice compilation of the 80's, it's only essential for collectors like me because it contains 3 rare track versions.

The first one is the 4 munites and 4 seconds edit of "I Know There's Something Going On" which is now only available on Frida's album "Something's Going On" as bonus track.

The second song is Tears For Fears "Shout" that clocks at 4 minutes and 6 seconds which again is only available on the latest DELUXE re-issue of "Songs From The Big Chair".

The third and last song is Falco's rare "Canadian Version" (4 minutes and 8 seconds) which is an edit to the 8 minutes and 21 seconds of "Salieri Version" that was released on the US version CD of "Falco 3" by A&M records in 1985. However, I noticed many of you are trying to locate this song without paying big $$$ for the long deleted Falco 3 CD and you can only find it on 2 CDs, one of them is Falco 'Hit Singles' released by Warner in 1998 again now it's out-of-print (try Amazon Germany for a cheaper second hand) and the other one titled "I love Techno Pop vol.2" which is still in print only in Spain and by the way an awesome compilation of 12inch hits, you can find it and buy it at Blanco Y Negro official website.

Anyway, a must for hardcore fan of the 80's.

3 out of 5 stars Disappointing.......2007-05-26

There are really only two tunes on this album that are both hard to find and desirable, and I bought it for the rarer of the two- Jim Pepper's great "Witchi Tai To" from the long out-of-print album, "Pepper's Pow Wow."

Unfortunately I was terribly disappointed to discover that the version presented here is a very short 2 minute and 55 second version, without the introductory chant. Luckily the version of Miriam Makeba's "Pata Pata" presented here was also one I wanted for my collection, but that's a lot to pay for one song.

As for the other sings on the disk- a few are winner, most are forgettable, and one- "Papa Joe's"- was incredibly annoying when I originally heard it on the radio, and time has not changed my opinion!

4 out of 5 stars The Search Is Over.......2007-01-10

This cd contains a lot of tracks that I had been searching for in second hand shops but was told I would never find them by the less than helpful sales staff.The songs were all on this one cd.

4 out of 5 stars Glad to find.......2006-11-10

For a month, XM radio counted down every charting song from the 40's to the present. Quite ambitious, and an incredible listen. I here this song I love, but didn't get the name. A week later I purchase this CD and "Witchi Tai To" is on the CD. Great luck for me. "My Boy Lollipop," "Black is Black," "Tobacco Road" - all great songs. Okay, Lollipop isn't a great song, but it's hilariously fun.

5 out of 5 stars Eric Records Production of Old R&R Tunes.......2006-02-01

This disc provided me with some long sought after tunes from my youth. Typically the disc contains songs I tolerated, a few I never heard of, However, the producers sought to include songs which mean something to many.

Are they alternative-country rockers or alternative rock crooners? That was the conundrum following Rilo Kiley's 2002 release, The Execution of Things, and with More Adventurous, the band's first record with major label support, we have our answer. Jolted by the divinely pure vocals of Jenny Lewis and Blake Sennett's howling guitar on prospective indie anthems like "Portions for Foxes," the Los Angeles foursome has two fists through the earth in their quest to depart the underground. It's obvious from the opening smack-talk sing-a-long "It's a Hit" that Lewis is the centerpiece of this 11-song pop consignment (leaving the capable Sennett to sing only the acoustic low-fi "Ripchord"), and the unabashed charisma that is her trademark infiltrates throughout—from rockers ("Love and War") to ballads ("Absence of God") to pop ("Accidntel Deth") to Dusty Springfield soul ("I Never"). And while the production is polished to radio-friendly, it fails to dull the charming accessibility of a band that wears progression as a badge. --Scott Holter

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Crossover appeal or corporate takeover?.......2007-07-06

Rilo Kiley's third LP is their most polished yet, primed as an effort intended to break them through as indie-major converts. Whether they succeed or not, More Adventurous is both appropriate and a misnomer. True, they expand their sound and try different things, working up a chemist shop worth of new tricks, but as stated before, it's a slicker effort, with bigger hooks and more attention to mainstream appeal, making it altogether too safe for comfort among their indie brethren.

But that doesn't matter beneath the weight of what works. As before, the first half is considerably better than the second. "It's a Hit" is a catchy anti-Bush strike (I think it's a law now that if you're in a band, you must pen a hate letter to that most-unfit of Commanders in Chief), but the targets are a bit obvious and delivered with as much subtlety as Neil Young's "Let's Impeach the President." "Portions For Foxes" is probably the most radio-ready of the bunch (and a single), "I Never" is a country-soul ballad that sounds plucked from the 60s, and "Does He Love You?" has a strong, flitting melody that carries Lewis' vocals over every crescendo (it sounds at times like an 80s pop hit for one of the Bangles or Go-Gos, but dramatic where the others were saccharine). As usual, though, we're left wondering why Sennett is even allowed to sing lead, as he does on the tepid "Ripchord." Not their finest moment, but a worthy addition to any indie pop fan's collection.

Best cuts: "Accidntel Deth," "Portions For Foxes," "Does He Love You?" "It's a Hit," "Love and War," "I Never," "The Absence of God," "A Man/Me/Just Jim"

2 out of 5 stars Boring.......2007-07-06

I first heard Portions for Foxes on the radio and absolutely loved it. Loved the fun lyrics and her voice. I bought the album and was totally disappointed. I found it to be very boring. I thought maybe I wasn't in the right mood to listen to it seeing all these great reviews about the album, but I've listened to it like 4 times and just find myself bored. Can't seem to get into it.

5 out of 5 stars Give Me More Rilo Kiley.......2007-03-07

I cannot get enough of this band. I am partial to female vocals and Jenny Lewis has never disappointed me. This band is another of those really good bands flying under the radar (see also, Bettie Serveert or Cat Power, for example), who deserve far greater recongnition (although Rilo Kiley was on a segment of Austin City Limits right around the time this disk was released). While both Lewis and bandmate, Blake Sennett, have recently put out non-Rilo Kiley works (both of which I enjoy), they are at their best in Rilo Kiley. More Adventurous is worth parting with your beer money, as are The Execution of All Things and Take Off and Landings. Now all we need is a new release from this talented group.

P.S. Jenny Lewis does a nice job on her solo effort, Rabbit Fur Coat, where she is backed up by the sister act, the Watson Twins. If you like female singer/songwriters, you should also give a listen to the Watson Twins on their debut release, Southern Manners. And, as I mentioned above, and to make sure he gets his props, Blake Sennett has recently released a second disk with his "other" band, The Elected, called Sun, Sun, Sun, which is a nice piece of work.

P.P.S. While I really like Lewis's vocals quite a bit, you may not. Her voice and style defy easy classification and are not for every one (which is perhaps why the band has not garnered far greater recognition). But if you want to expand your horizons and experience music as art, not as popular culture, then you owe it to yourself to investigate both Jenny Lewis and Rilo Kiley.

5 out of 5 stars I Love Rilo Kiley!.......2007-01-19

I was first introduced to Rilo Kiley by a friend mixing one of their songs on a CD she made for me. I then bought "The Execution of All Things" and liked it. It is mostly made up of Jenny's stories about ALaska. Different yes...but none the less inspiring. More Adventurous is a deeper look into the human pysche and relationships between lovers and friends. I became addicted to "Me/A Man/And Jim". I must have listened to it 10 times in a row after I heard it for the first time. This CD narrates reality to your ears and will bring you to your knees. I love it!

2 out of 5 stars Ehhhh.......2007-01-09

It was not all that it was cracked up to be. I expected more, judging by the reviews I was reading. The cd starts off strong, but then goes in a dismal, boring blah kind of place.
