2 out of 5 stars Not My Style.......2007-05-11

This CD has a lot of good songs on it, but it just too bland for our taste. We prefer Western music to sound as though genuine cowboys are singing it - not a fancy chorus!

5 out of 5 stars Rockin' Western Collection.......2006-08-28

For anyone who likes movie/tv music from westerns should purchase this CD. What a wonderful collection of both film and tv with great renditions of each piece. I'm about to purchase Vol. 1 to complete my collection.

5 out of 5 stars Hard to Find Great Western Themes .......2006-03-16

This CD has a number of great western themes that are not in some of the standard lists. For example it includes "The Hallejuah Trail", "Blazing Saddles", and "Giant". This CD also has what I consider the true theme of "The Comancheros". I have been disappointed with some other CDs I have purchased listing "The Comancheros" which had a song rather than this theme. Many of the tracks on this two disk CD go beyond the main theme music and are actually suites. The "Big Country" and "How the West Was Won" are just a couple of examples. It may be a little more expense than some CDs, but not bad for a two disk set. I am really happy with my purchase.

4 out of 5 stars Western Music.......2005-07-29

I enjoy this CD. It has many familiar melodies. Good background for reading, nice to listen while driving. It is also the only CD I've ever found that has the great theme from the movie "Giant."

5 out of 5 stars A great follow-up.......2003-08-29

This is the second collection by SilvaScreen, who are also responsible for "The Wild West: The Essential Western Film Music Collection" (see my review). And it's just as good as the first. There are themes in here that everyone will recognize ("Bonanza," "A Fistful of Dollars"), themes that may not be so familiar ("Duel in the Sun," "The Hanging Tree," the lively "Blazing Saddles"), and even themes you may not associate with Westerns at all ("The Friendly Persuasion"). And no duplication either: when this disc includes a piece from one of the same sources covered in its predecessor, it's a different piece. One great treat: the full lyrics to "Gunfight at OK Corral," which I've never heard outside the soundtrack of the movie itself. The arrangement from "Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid" includes not only the familiar song "Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head" but an overview of the music--seguing almost seamlessly into Bernstein's magnificent "The Comancheros," a rare find indeed. An expensive item, but if you love Western film music, well worth it.

5 out of 5 stars Open Mind.......2007-06-17

I have to give this 5 stars to hopefully raise the overall rating. When I bought this yesterday, I was expecting a train wreck but it's actually very good. Yes, Gord's voice isn't as strong as in the early recordings but it's great to hear a newer-take on the songs...it's almost like listening to a live concert sometimes. I have every Gordon Lightfoot album and I still enjoyed listening to this CD.

4 out of 5 stars "Write a review..............eh??".......2006-11-23

Some thoughts on this album. One previous reviewer stated that Gord's voice is not as good as it was, in the 1970's. When Sundown was recorded in 1973-74, he was 35. I do not know of anybody, whose voice is the same, say at 55. His voice has matured. It is true that his problems with the bottle, did nothing to help his voice,but I enjoy his recordings post-1984. This particular album is noteworthy for the inclusion of "If It Should Please You". The others are more like in concert. These songs are well done, but I still prefer the original recordings.

5 out of 5 stars Well worth the listen.......2006-04-13

Being an avid fan of Lightfoot for 35 years, I would recommend any/all/and this collection to everyone. Lightfoot has a special
magic of making each time you listen to one of his songs, just like the first time. I never tire of his music, and find unique special moments in remakes. His version of "Not Supposed to Care" in this collection is absolutely outstanding. My wife always asks me...."Don't you ever get tired of listening to Gordon Lightfoot music?" The answer is NO. This album is a good example of why I don't.

4 out of 5 stars Nuggets.......2005-11-10

Funny thing about fandom. Even among casual fans, there are all kinds of gradations. I would admit to being only a casual fan of Gordon Lightfoot, but that's not to say that given world enough and time, I wouldn't be more of one. I'm certainly not like the (probably apocryphal) joker who once yelled out at a concert, "Play the Wreck of the Ella Fitzgerald!" Not quite that bad.

In fact, in my teens I had several of Gordo's earliest records (the ones on United Artists) and loved them. But then, in college I started hanging out with some acoustic musicians who were hard core Lightfoot FREAKS. And you know how it is, since you know you're going to get to hear your friends copies, you spend your own hard earned cash on something else. And it was true, to a degree. I certainly got to hear all of Lightfoot's early 70s Reprise albums at friends' places.

But did I really absorb them? I guess not. When I recently picked up on a used copy of GORD'S GOLD II--one with the inserts missing--I realized there were a large number of these "golden oldies" that I didn't know after all (must have come out after we graduated or something). And many seemingly obvious choices for inclusion (title tracks from his many albums, for instance) did not make the cut. And it probably does not speak well for me that it wasn't even clear to me until I started to peruse the reviews included on this Amazon, that these were, for the most part, RE-recordings of tracks from earlier albums. Hmmm, I THOUGHT there was something different.

And being only a casual fan, I scarcely realized the level of controversy I was entering into by purchasing this CD and actually liking it. I vaguely recall reading about Lightfoot's decision to do "live in the studio" re-recordings of these selected "gold standard" tracks. Seems like a valid artistic choice to me, but then, I try never to second guess any artist's decisions. Judging from some of the other reviews, I may be in a distinct minority.

I like the warm live sound of this recording--and I don't miss the audience response particularly either. Lightfoot is one performer I regret never having seen. This record gives me a taste of what I have been missing all these years. Without any distraction. Close your eyes and you almost have your litte personal house concert going on. And I can't say I miss the strings from some of those classic 70s albums exactly. I never objected to them, but the stripped down sound of most of the tracks here is preferable to me.

But of course, many people bought this album thinking they were getting something else, and I suppose they have every right to vent their spleen. Hopefully though, they'll satisfy their craving for collections of the original studio versions from among the several now available. But if they give GOLD II a second, third or umpteenth chance, they may find its laconically seductive charm creeping up on them.

It would be pointless to deny that Gordo's voice was already showing some wear by the mid-80s when this was recorded. But those who describe his singing as "horrible" here are surely exaggerating. A pro like Lightfoot doesn't just lose it totally. There's a frayed quality to some of the vocals, no question, but his expert phrasing more than makes up for that. As a performing artist he's got what TV newscasters everywhere would give their eyeteeth to have: gravitas.

Which is not to say he lacks humor or warmth. It's all there in spades. And his rapport with the band is remarkable. This is one tight ensemble. You don't get that quality with your typical studio production job. Now that it's been in release for close to 20 years--and now that other compilation packages are also available--it's time to drop the controversy re: this record. Just listen to it for what it is. And enjoy.

4 out of 5 stars More Great Songs From Gordon Lightfoot.......2005-09-28

Canadian folk singer Gordon Lightfoot has followed up his first greatest hits collection (Gord's Gold) with "Gords Gold II", another fine anthology of songs. Most people are more familiar with the songs on the first g.h. album, such as "Sundown" and "If You Could Read My Mind", but this disc has several great songs of its own.

The most recognizable track on this disc is the wonderful and haunting "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald", a sea ballad about the Great Lakes ore boat which sank in November of 1975 on Lake Superior. Lightfoot's voice and his excellent backing band bring the story of the Fitz to life in this great song.

There are other good songs on this disc as well, including "Race Among the Ruins" and "Cherokee Bend". Although the songs on this disc did not attain the prominence of the ones on his first g.h. cd, they are still great to listen to.

I recommend this cd very highly. Gordon Lightfoot still sounds good today, and each of his songs carries a unique message. Listen to this collection of hits and hear some great folk music from one of its best artists.

Amazon.com essential recording

It's a measure of Roy Orbison's classics that even some of the uptempo songs that break up the dominant balladic mood of this 20-song collection are themselves fairly melancholic. Rarely does Orbison allow himself the outright celebration of something like "Mean Woman Blues," more often going for the shades of gray that slip into "Blue Angel" and "Leah." Few could do what he achieves on these singles, and not just because few are gifted with such a voice. The biggest achievement of all may be Orbison's ability to make a devastated cry like "Only the Lonely" sound somehow peaceful. --Rickey Wright

4 out of 5 stars Great sounds from the Best.......2007-07-25

This CD brought back lots of good memories. Roy Orbison was one of the Greats, Saw him in person years ago and will never forget the great voice he had. I recommend buying this CD

5 out of 5 stars Best 1 disc Orbison collection.......2007-05-27

This is the best single disc collection of Roy Orbison's Monument hits. It was originally released on 2 LPs in the early 80's. One thing I've always wondered about is that this 20 track CD has always been also available as 2 separate volumes with 10 tracks each & having the same cover artwork (you'd have to be careful to read the list of tracks on the back) Why?? If someone is an Orbison fan why would they want one volume & not the other? Why not just have all 20 tracks on one CD, as it is done here? Also, one reviewer asks why "You Got It" isn't here,well it's because that song wasn't even recorded yet when this album was released, and that song was on Virgin Records,not Monument.

5 out of 5 stars It is Roy Orbison.......2007-03-29

What more can be said? Roy Orbison has a quality of voice that can't be duplicated. One of the few really original and great voices.

4 out of 5 stars Sound is good.......2007-03-21

I would like to suggest, contrary to the review of Aug 2006, that the sound on this nice collection of Roy Orbison's Monument hits, is actually quite good.

With the puzzling exception of the song LOVE HURTS, which seems to have been mastered from a very muffled tape.

This Sony disk was issued in 1989, and has not been re-mastered since then, so you're getting a relatively unfutzed edition for a nominal price.

    3 out of 5 stars Please Lose the Farting SFX.......2001-06-25

    The first 24k gold compilation is a little more solid, but there are some good tunes here as well. Both are good compilations and a good starting point for discovering other reggae artists. One drawback I find is that I wish I could hear the whole song, instead of roughly 2 minutes of each song. I guess this is necessary to cram 24 tracks onto the CD. Also, the sound effects get pretty annoying, especially the farting sound. It was funny at first, but gets old quick. I guess Jamaican DJs like to add their signature sound effects over the tunes they play, but I wish they'd just lay off the FX, and leave this to the DUB masters like Scientist and Mikey Dread. (I'd give it 4 stars if it weren't for the annoying sound effects.)

    5 out of 5 stars WICKED.......2001-04-15

    This album brings back memories and pays tribute to Jamaica's greatest artists. The make up of this album was ingeniuos. It combines some of the greatest lovers and dancehall tracks that are mixed with such precise and melodious riddims. I think this is a "MUST HAVE" album for everyone who loves the reggae genre. IT IS OFF DA HOOK!!!!!!!!!!!

    5 out of 5 stars At last! Maud Powell's musicianship available again.......2002-01-03

    This is a reissue of "The Art of Maud Powell, a 'Victor Immortal' - complete recordings 1904-1917" prepared by the Maud Powell Foundation (Arlington, VA) in 1989. The guiding spirit behind that foundation, and project director of this collection, is Powell's biographer Karen A. Shaffer.

    These three CDs were available only from the Maud Powell Foundation. I managed to get volume 3 several years ago after hearing all three discs from a library, but volume 2 has not been available. So, I've waited for volumes 1 and 2 hoping they'd come back "someday." Well, here they are, and Naxos has also released volume 3 according to their January 2 2002 newsletter.

    Maud Powell (1867-1920) was in 1904 the first solo instrumentalist to record for Victor's new celebrity artist series on their Red Seal label. Their promotional materials told us to "Listen to Maud Powell's violin...if you want to find out how much can be got out of a fiddle, go--listen to--Maud Powell." They were right.

    Powell's performances are the type of playing that may bring tears to your eyes, going straight to the heart and soul of the music and resonating with whatever you find inside yourself. She starts with a remarkably intense tone and naturally easy phrasing, then adds a tastefully varied vibrato and portamento (as vocally-inspired ornaments to heighten the expressivity). She varies her intonation according to the keys and the directions of the phrases, as her younger contemporary Pablo Casals did on the cello. It is extraordinary, like the best singer one can imagine but going beyond words. It is the kind of performance where it doesn't even matter what music she's playing...classical bon-bons, excerpts, folk songs, whatever. The music becomes a living thing in performances this good: breathing and moving and dancing right in front of you, and commanding your attention. It will get to you and you will feel it. What more needs to be said?

    Bravo to Naxos for making these recordings available. The sound is pretty good, too, considering that the recordings were made before the availability of electric microphones. I hardly notice the background noise of the record since the performances are so directly engaging. These discs would be a "must-have" even at three or four times the price that Naxos is asking for them....

    5 out of 5 stars awesome baritone.......2002-05-01

    This is a great CD to me because I play Baritone of course. But this is a great CD even if you've never even heard of a Baritone before. This music will get your attention no matter who you are!

    5 out of 5 stars A Euphonium player's essential CD.......2002-03-13

    Plain and simple- if you want to here what a euphonium player should strive for, this too-good-to-be-true CD is it.

    5 out of 5 stars What a wonderful performance by both the soloist and band........1999-09-11

    The euphonium isn't as well known as other brass instruments, and I think Michael J. Colburn will help it to be better known with this CD. Mr. Colburn brings out the beautiful sound of this instrument. I recommend this CD for anyone who likes to listen to virtuoso solos and wishes to hear a great euphonium player.

    5 out of 5 stars Great Euphonium Playing!.......1999-01-15

    This is really great CD! Michael Colburn is a great performer. I could listen to this over and over and over again...

    5 out of 5 stars An excellent CD played on the best of Brass instruments.......1998-12-17

    This is a CD that one can listen to countless times. The virtuoso playing and beautiful tone produced by Michael aptly display the characteristics of the euphonium. The selections are for college and graduate level players, as well as the occasionally "gifted" highschooler. A must hear, and a must buy.

    5 out of 5 stars THE OTHER SIDES.......2006-07-19

    YOU WILL NEVER FIND HOUND DOG ETC ON THIS CD BECAUSE IT IS THE OTHER SIDE SONGS ,IN OTHER WORDS THE B SIDES.BY THE WAY THIS IS EXCELLENT CDS,EVERY ELVIS FAN SHOULD BUY.

    5 out of 5 stars Try Volume 1.......2003-05-11

    In his review of this collection Stephen Verhaeren noted the absence of such hits as Heartbreak Hotel, Hound Dog, Don't Be Cruel, and Jailhouse Rock. Perhaps he failed to notice the "Vol. 2" in the title, since all of those hits reside of Vol. 1.
    30 years ago I had the Worldwide GHold Award Hits collections on vinyl and it was one huge stack of records. It was the state of the art anthology of its day. Now in this age of CD box sets we take such collections for granted and expect more and more. But in 1971 there was nothing like this. In fact, it remained the de facto "one-stop" collection of Elvis hits until it went out of print a few years ago. Certainly, one CD, like the "30 #1's" collection can do Elvis' great career justice.

    4 out of 5 stars Two cds better than one? Where's Heartbreak Hotel?.......2001-06-04

    The Other Sides has 50 Elvis Presley songs, and RCA did all of them on two cds. But is two cds better than one? The first song on Disc One has My Baby Left Me. Along with Crawfish, Young and Beautiful, I want to be free, (Your so square) Baby I don't care, We're going to move, Hot Dog, Rip it up.

    The reason I'm giving this cd 4 stars instead of my usual 5 stars is because Heartbreak Hotel, Hound Dog, Don't Be Cruel, and Jailhouse rock are missing on this cd. So why two cds?

    Disc two has Trouble, Wild in the country, Ask me, Puppet on a string, I've lost you, Any day now, Witchcraft, Fame and fortune and Patch it up.

    Now I might have given this 5 stars if Heartbreak Hotel, Hound Dog, Don't Be Cruel, and Jailhouse rock was on this cd but not. Was RCA getting pretty tired of putting those songs on Elvis Presley cds?

    5 out of 5 stars Brought me back 40 years to a more innocent time.......1998-07-26

    These are the songs on the "flip" sides of our 45's and on the extended play 45's with four songs on them...an economical way for teeners to attain an extensive record library of our favorite singers in my day! Though Elvis'voice expanded and became more versatile with training and age, there is something so remarkable and innocent about his voice in the beginning.....no fancy mixers or backgrounds...just simple old Negro jazz and country songs. I loved his voice then and I love it now. I never thought I'd ever hear these songs again except in my head! My personal favorite? .."Rip It Up"..I still sing it every Saturday night! Travel back in time to our innocence with this recording.
