cd arrived fast, in excellent shape as promised, well packaged to protect it during shipment. I'd heard the CD during an exercise class and had trouble trying to get it from other vendors so especially appreciated Amazon.

5 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL CD.......2007-05-08

I was so happy to find this on CD I have the original on a cassette from childhood. I loved it then and now and now my children listen and love it.

5 out of 5 stars Good upbeat working music.......2007-03-08

I love these CDS . . what a brilliant idea to add a beat to the most popular classical songs of all time. It is great upbeat music that gets you going. I specifically use it for when I need a boost to get me going on housework. It get you in just the right mood to start working. My kids love it too.

5 out of 5 stars Jackpot.......2007-05-08

This, along with The Specials (The Specials) is one of the two of the defining masterpieces of the 2nd Wave of ska. However, unlike the Specials, they give credit where credit is due -- crediting Prince Buster with "Rough Rider," whereas the Specials did *not* credit Toots & the Maytals with "Monkey Man," basically ripped off "Al Capone" by Prince Buster, threw some nonsense lyrics together, and voila "Gangsters". They kept the "Don't Call me Scarface," and in lieu of "Al Capone's Guns don't argue" at the beginning, "Bernie Rhodes (their manager) knows don't argue"...
Ok, enough of that. Both are masterpieces in their own right, but "I Just Can't Stop It" takes the cake, IMHO. And I've been listening to ska for quite a few decades now...and just came from seeing the Beat (as they're known in England; unfortunately an American band named the Beat had them precursor their name with thier country of origin...) for the 2nd time in 6 months. They played over 2.5 hours straight through, and are at the top of the list of energetic bands I've ever seen. And live, they are much different than they are on record -- both are brilliant, in their own special way. My favorite song off the CD, "Twist & Crawl," which is more new wave/mod meets ska, became an insane dub-fueled monster live.
If you are a fan of music, especially one of the 3rd wave of ska (e.g. Sublime, No Doubt, to name the most famous...and who blended punk rock with ska) and want to know some of the origins of the music, even though Sublime covers Toot's "54-46 Was My Number" and never covers any of the 2nd generation (even looking through my prodigious Sublime bootleg collection), this album is for you. And for those wondering what ska is, this is for you...it is a masterpiece. It's better than any ska anthology you'll find IMHO.

5 out of 5 stars Landmark Ska.......2007-02-23

The Beat took up their task with relish and purpose, producing one of the most definitive ska albums of the 80's. Today, I Just Can't Stop It remains a timeless work a quarter century later...

Quibbles about the British edition aside (only the early American version of the cd has Tears of a Clown and Ranking Full Stop), this record is as socially conscious as it is fun. Ranking and Wakeling were not overly opinionated lads, but they made their points eloquently and with arresting honesty. It is quite often the case, however, that you find yourself singing along to a beautiful harmony, only realizing later on what the lyrics actually say. I only noticed the political overtones of 'Stand Down Margaret' after grooving to it for some two or three years. :)

It's a shame that a group of this caliber splintered after only three albums, but I suppose we should count ourselves lucky to have heard them at all.

5 out of 5 stars Non Stop Fun!.......2006-06-18

First released in 1980, The English Beat's (known in the UK simply as The Beat they added the name English to their moniker to avoid confusion with a California based also band called The Beat) "I Just Can't Stop" it is not only possibly the single greatest album of the later 70's/early 80's ska revival, it is one of the greatest album of the late 70's/early 80's punk/new wave scene.

Already full of nonstop, infectious boppin' tunes the band's US label added two songs to the original album -- "Rankin' Full Stop," and a cover of Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' "Tears of a Clown" that had been stand alone singles in the UK. By omitting those songs from this CD reissue the album has been restored to its original running order and, as a previous reviewer noted, becomes the album the way the band intended for it to be heard.

But all of that is really pretty moot because this is still a great, great record with songs like "Best Friend," "Mirror in the Bathroom, "Hands Off She's Mine," and "Wine and Grind/Stand Down Margaret" (ah, the days of the anti-Thatcher/Reagan anthems) that compel you to hit the repeat button on your CD remote over and over.

Ignore the reviewers who don't know the history of this album and get this -- the complete and original version of one of the all time great albums.

5 out of 5 stars This IS the orginal complete album.......2006-05-25

As has already been noted by one other reviewer, the original release of "I Just Can't Stop It" did not include "Tears of a Clown" or "Ranking Full Stop". These were added to the original U.S. release of the record due to the fact that these UK singles were otherwise unavailable in the U.S. Seeing as how they are compiled on multiple North American releases and were never supposed to be on the record, releasing the original UK version of the album on CD is perfectly justified.

5 out of 5 stars Ska done right - this album is so addictive!!!.......2006-01-22

I'll be honest here - I used to HATE ska. I would go to my local concert hall to see some local musicians and there would ALWAYS be horrible ska bands playing (which is why I hated ska). I had just about given up on the genre when, to my surprise, I hear a sample of The English Beat's "Mirror In The Bathroom" on Coldcut's "Journeys By DJ: 70 Minutes of Madness" (also an excellent album) and was immediately intrigued. Lo' and behold, after I got this album, it was amazing! I never knew ska could be so fun and interesting! Every song here is great and all of them are pretty memorable - everything about them is fantastic. The vocals are very well done here as Dave Wakeling has a very appealing voice. The lyrics are also pretty interesting to listen to as well as catchy - "Mirror In The Bathroom" is but one of many songs that'll get stuck in your head. Musically it sounds like most other ska bands but with a little new wave and college rock thrown in. It's also very well-produced for an album that came out in 1980. Overall this is an album that most people will LOVE, not jsut ska fans. Absolutely recommended!

4 out of 5 stars Remarkable.......2007-07-21

I also purchased this at Borders. I was unable to talk myself out of it. It was good for a couple of chuckles and I found myself drumming along with the beat out of sheer boredom, but it was bearable and will probably be listened to again... more so for the side show freekiness of it.

5 out of 5 stars This is the funniest thing - ever!!.......2007-07-08

I saw this album at Borders last night and my hand reached out against my will and picked it up, clutching it with steely talons in an iron death grip that would not unclench until the album was officially bought and paid for (by me).

My other hand reluctantly reached for my wallet, and the rest is pretty much non-history. The album is... interesting. Not at all any style of music I would normally endure, but for sheer balls and downright fun ideas, I had to support my fellow artist9s), and I do not regret the purchase. In fact, I will listen to the entire CD at least a dozen times over the next month, even at the cost of mine own eardrums.

It's not that the musicians are untalented (they ARE talented - that much I will say), but it is simply hard to imagine going rabid in a fan-boy way over this band. That said - if they ever play LA I will be banging my head... er... swaying gently?... holding up my lighter?... well I will be at the show. They are probably a hoot live, and that is what music is really all about - being there with the musicians having a great time. buy the album. your mom will thank you. Then go see them live.

DISCLAIMER: I am firmly entrenched in the Draco and the Malfoy's fan base, so that may have influenced my review ;-)

It took hip-hop a couple of decades to become ingrained in pop music, but the genre's influence shows on Len's You Can't Stop the Bum Rush. The members of Len might not agree--after all, they probably consider themselves a hip-hop act, and they've got a case, what with their lineup (which incorporates a DJ and a couple of MCs), their use of loops and samples (from the Andrea True Connection, the Bar Kays, Grandmaster Flash & Melle Mel, and the big mack daddy himself, John Travolta), and guests like Biz Markie, Kurtis Blow, and Mr. Dibbs. But there's something very pop at the core of Len, and it's what makes Bum Rush so special--as hip-hop becomes harder and more experimental, Len rediscover a very vital part of the history. Filled with keyboards, dance rhythms, harmonies, stoner humor, and Sugar Ray-ish party vocals, Bum Rush is pure pop for the hip-hop generation. The album keeps things light but never skimps in delivering single after single; they may all prove disposable, but why worry about that now? --Randy Silver

5 out of 5 stars Something for everyone.......2007-07-23

If you only like Steal My Sunshine, then you don't like music. This album has so many different styles it's amazing it all fit on one cd. Each song is different, and you can't say that much these days. Do yourself a favor and give it a listen.

4 out of 5 stars Reminds me of summer!.......2006-08-15

I can't explain it, but this CD, particularly the song "Steal My Sunshine", has always reminded me of summer and my childhood. I grew up listening and loving that song since the day it came out, and I just recently bought it from BMG for $1.99.

It's hard to explain what kind of music is on this CD. There's some rap, hip-hop, a little bit of soul, and even some techno. I've never heard such a mix. Sure that makes it a little odd at first, but it kinda grows on you. It's a pretty good variety, but I must admit some of the songs are a little odd.

So, on that note, I would buy the single for "Steal My Sunshine" if that's the only song you are interested in, but like I said, you might be able to find this entire album for a fabulous price, like I did with BMg.

2 out of 5 stars One Hit Wonder.......2006-07-20

I am a rock and roll person. I hate rap. This is a rap/pop album that first came out when I was eight; "Steal My Sunshine" was big on my list. That is still a good song, however, I don't really like their other songs. Just buy the single of "Steal My Sunshine"- it will save you money.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome Mix of old school hip-hop with new school pop.......2006-01-10

Love every song on this Album. I bought because of Steal my Sunshine. I love techno and some Old school hip-hop. I hate gangsta rap. You won't find any gangsta rap on this album. That's why I like it. It plays the old school white boy rap which I love. The whole album has a fun light-hearted feel to it. It's a shame this band never became more successful.

1 out of 5 stars A CD I tried to sell and no one would buy.......2005-02-10

This cd is horrible. It starts of with a couple catchy pops songs that Carson Daily liked then all the sudden, they bust out some rap. Canadians can't rap, I DEMAND JUSTICE!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

5 out of 5 stars Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

5 out of 5 stars Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

5 out of 5 stars Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

4 out of 5 stars Silky and Soulful.......2007-06-12

great sound...great voice...smooth and mellow...but not TOOO mellow. daryl hall knows how to deliver. a simple but sophisticated collection. heard "cab driver" on the radio and thought it was a new song....then found this cd and Soul Alone...don't know how i missed them..but glad i found em...they are already "regulars" on my play list.

5 out of 5 stars Darrly Hall at his best!!!!.......2007-05-13

I was a freshman in college when Hall & Oates began to make an impression on the music scene back in the '70s. So, for the next fifteen years I was a big fan of their "blue-eyed soul" music. Unfortunately for them the '90s didn't bode well for that particular genre of music. But guess what? What's old is new in the new millenium, and Darryl Hall (minus John Oates) kicks mega-a** on this CD. This is without a doubt the "best" effort Darryl Hall has put forth in twenty years!!! Do yourself a favor and purchase Can't Stop Dreaming immediately. And for all of us who remember AWB, Alan Gorrie collaborated on this CD and his influence really works for Darryl Hall,

5 out of 5 stars Great solo album.......2007-04-10

This is an excellent solo album done by darryl hall. I am only familiar with the songs that were hits in the 80's so this is so refreshing to hear. Very easy listening.

5 out of 5 stars Getting better all the time.........2007-01-26

Daryl Hall's music and ever evolving kind of soul is like those gool ol' wines: they get better as they age. Like many children of the 80's my first memory of Hall & Oates goes straight back to their 1982 album "H20" (Maneater, Family Man...). From then on, Hall & Oates was simply an inherent part of the decade. But when I found out that one of my favorite songs ever ("Everytime you go away" performed by Paul Young) had been indeed composed by Daryl Hall, I began to explore his music in deep beyond the no. 1 hits. With pleasant results. I became a Hall & Oates fan and more specifically, a Daryl Hall fan. "Big Bam Boom" released in 1984 included one of the greatest songs ever written and one of my all time favorites "Some things are better left unsaid". Although the song did not caught much attention at the moment (in fact it only reached no. 18 on the Domestic U.S. charts) boy how it introduced the unique harmonics and true soulful mood that define the true richness of Daryl Hall's unparalelled type of music. It is so very pleasant to find out that 20 years later Daryl Hall is still faithful to his roots and can undoubtedly deliver superb music. With "Can't stop dreaming" Daryl's definitely showcases his very own "Philly Mood" in a mature, relaxed and at-ease sort of way. What a great musician and singer. "Can't stop dreaming" was originally released in JAPAN (!) in 1997 and 6 years later (2003) in the U.S. I bought the imported japanese CD back in 1998 and since then it is one of my all time favorites. All the songs are great (all of them, really)and they are all bound to be favorites though perhaps the moving ballad "Holding out for love" has a special place in my heart and of course, the new version of the all-time hit "She's gone" stands out for good. Daryl explores different styles with his everpresent underlying strong soul & R&B foundation and the whole product is incredibly easy to listen and enjoy. To all Daryl Hall fans out there, this CD is a must have.

5 out of 5 stars Pleasantly Surprised.......2006-09-24

I was pleasantly surprised by this album. Hard to believe the album is as good as it is without the harmonies of John Oates....but I really enjoyed it. More smooth jazz than pop or rock, this is the best cd I've heard straight through in awhile.

    5 out of 5 stars One of the best.......2007-04-06

    Beres is truly a modern day Marin Gaye of carribean music, with a variety of flavor and different rythms. If you like reggae this is a must buy.

    5 out of 5 stars Thank the good Lord for Beres Hammond.......2006-09-10

    Beres Hammond by far is the best when it comes to Lover's Rock. As a youngster, my generation is all too much infatuated with Reggae and know so little about it. If you say you know Reggae and the name Beres Hammond doesn't ring a bell then you DON'T KNOW REGGAE!!!! Beres has been such an inspiration to me. This Ultimate Collection is a must have for Reggae lovers.

    May God continue to allow Beres Hammond to keep making music that touches people in so many ways.

    5 out of 5 stars Lovers Rock.......2006-01-24

    If you are looking for a collection of songs based on love, reality and good vibes, this CD set is exactly what you need. With songs like "One Step Ahead" and "What one dance can do", you'll find that these tunes truly will groove your musical soul. The lyrics are easy to follow...and the sensuality of each song is coined in a very non-abrasive way.

    Buy this collection today. You will NOT be disappointed!

    5 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended.........2006-01-01

    This CD set contains the best of the Beres Hammond's songs! Beres is the next best thing since Bob Marley! What a sweet voice, intelligent & uplifting lyrics and a total positive vibe from this collection.

    5 out of 5 stars Slammin'.......2005-10-26

    If you already know Beres then there is no need to explain if you don't know Beres you better recognize! The man is amazing!

    Album Details

    A Second Volume of the Hit Series that Merged Classical Music Into the Disco Generation at the Very End of the 70's. In the 80's, it Pervaded the Aerobic Set and Inspired a Bunch of Scandanavians to Apply the Backbeaten Concept to Pop as Well....

    If you want great music to exercise by, this is it! It can make your time on the treadmill or exercise bike fly by. If you're new to it, try the "If You Knew Sousa" tracks. I promise you won't be sorry! Have fun! Exercise!

    4 out of 5 stars A fun way to introduce Classical Music.......2002-06-05

    This compilation Album represents the best that the Hooked on Classics series have to offer. THis is an excellent way to make Classical Music interesting to those who might think Classical Music is "boring".

    Louis Clark has arranged some of the most popular composers and their most popular works in a way that will keep toes tapping and hands clapping to the fast tempos while some of the slower tracks (Hooked on Romance) become warm melodies to the ear.

    As usual, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra of londa, plays the arrangements with seeming ease and perfecton. The orcehstras ability to play these arrangements is more than just "playing along with a Rock beat" but, a wonderful demonstration of musical perfection.

    Louis Clark createtd the hooked on Classics world, with Albums 1 - 3 and has been followed by others who try to copy his recipe (Hooked on Classics 4 - Hooked on Baroque and Hooked on Classics 5)but never seem to capture the gleam of the original three albums.

    Take time to sit back, relax and let Louis Clark and the Royal Philharmonic Orcehstra take you on a Journey through the Classics with this wonderful compilation!

    4 out of 5 stars didn't work for rehearsals.......2007-03-22

    I used this CD to help me rehearse for the BIG production I was in, but it didn't match the libretto at all. I think there was one song on there that I could use.

    3 out of 5 stars Big for folks doing the Musical.......2006-03-20

    If you're getting this CD to help prepare for your school or community group doing the musical, there are a lot of changes from the CD to the book. Aside from finding the book in a new key and some chunks added/deleted, Here We Go Again and When You're Big aren't included anymore.

    Overall, the music's a little trite, but there are some nice moments -- mostly the stuff sung by the female leads.

    5 out of 5 stars It's Awesome, It's Amazing, It's BIG!!!!.......2006-01-22

    My high school did "Big" my sophomore year, and oh my god, it was such a fun musical to do. I kind of forgot about it until my senior year, when I suddenly craved some of that music again. So I purchased this CD and I've been loving it since. They got rid of a couple of the songs and replaced them with others as the show progressed on Broadway, so I was suprised to hear new material (to me anyways), and for the most part, I actually enjoyed these original songs over their replacements that my production contained. This cast is phenomenal and the guy who plays Josh Baskin sounds so much like Tom Hanks at points, its crazy. It's a simple, yet a bit fantastic musical about growing up, and it's funny and romantic, and a lot of fun. I love all the songs, and it's a shame it didn't do too well on B-way. At least this recording will keep the music alive.

    "This Isn't Me" is one of my favorite tracks, as it's a lot of fun and has a great beat, but suprisingly it was replaced with "Good Morning to Mom", which was only so-so. "I Want To Go Home" is a great ballad that Josh sings, and its simple, a bit funny, and the ending is the best, as its cute and sad. Another song they got rid of, "Here We Go Again", is a song Susan sings, and again, I like it alot. It has a quirky melody that I like. "Stars, Stars, Stars" is another great song, and is quite cute. One of the more popular songs. "Cross The Line" is the finale to Act I and is also very excellent and up beat, and makes you want to dance. "Stop, Time" is my favorite song on the album by far. Sung by Josh's mom, it is one of the more poignant moments of the show. Heartfelt, sad, and truly beautiful, it defiantely makes you appreciate your mom. Barbara Walsh sounds superb on this: she has a great voice. I love this one. "Dancing all the Time" is another good Susan song, and it leads into "I Want To Know" by Young Josh, which is another good ballad. "Coffee, Black" is another showstopper, fun ensemble song, and again, very comedic. "One Special Man" is Susan's ballad to Josh, and it is very beatiful. My only regret is that its only 2:21 so its a short one, and I just want her to start belting at the end, but no, its a quiet ending. Still, I love this one too. The finale is great too, and features an amazing duet between Josh and Susan. I love the harmonies they do.

    All in all, this is a great album. Sample the songs and give it a try. This is a must have!!

    4 out of 5 stars a lost gem.......2004-10-14

    i saw this musical at the local high school in 2001 and was plesently suprised i of course saw the movie and the only thing i knew about this musical was it didnt stay long on broadway, so when i saw it was i shocked this is a delight cross the line still resenates in my head 5 years later.

    1 out of 5 stars Ungodly awful.......2004-06-19

    BEWARE. This musical is perhaps one of the five worst pieces of music I have ever experienced. I began to wonder if the composer was attempting to make the world's worst musical. Listen for yourself and enjoy the disjunct vocal lines, the desperate attempt at "fun music", and - worst of all - how the highlight of the entire show both dramatically and musically is the insipidly awful "Heart and Soul". Stick to the movie because this baby is horrendous.
