5 out of 5 stars Generally excellent........2007-01-21

The Blind Boys get help from David Hidalgo (Los Lobos), Billy Preston, and Charlie Musselwhite on this release - not that they need it, but wow, what players. There is great, authentic stuff here. A particular standout is the atmospheric "Demons", a memorable production. (Yes, it includes guest rappers The Gift of Gab, but I'm 53 and I STILL like it, so......)

In a way, I wish I could give it 4.5 stars, because two cuts feel like filler. Still, it's easy to recommend.

5 out of 5 stars cool gospel blues retro supersized wonder.......2006-06-05

If you like Gospel music and I mean real Gospel music you know what I mean, that Southern Black deep in the roots and heart of christianity seated in that deepest area of faith coming from the soul kind of Gospel music, then you really need to listen to this album, of course if you are into that kind of Gospel then you already know who The Blind Boys of Alabama are. the title track is wonderful in how it takes a fear of the Atom Bomb the way it was to the people in the late 40's and the 50's when people were building fallout shelters in their yards and schools started having drills for nuclear blasts and turns it into a worship of god. They also do a cover version of Eric Clapton's "Presence of the lord" that is way cool.

1 out of 5 stars Unlistenable.......2006-05-23

Not my taste, but not saying others wouldn't like it. To me, the singing sounds like a group of drunken hobos singing around a trashfire.

5 out of 5 stars This CD is in my auto CD player right now!.......2006-01-20

Even if you aren't into gospel music, you will like this CD.
A little Blues, a lot of funk. I have played this cd over and over and will be purchasing more of the Blind Boys of Alabama.

5 out of 5 stars Gospel+Blues+Soul+Funk+Rap+Rock = SPECTACULAR!!!.......2005-05-07

I listened to this CD at one of those "listening stations" in a record store-- and bought it 15 minutes later! (...even though I had to scrounge in my pockets for my last 13 bucks.) It hasn't been off my rotation since. I'd never heard of these guys before, never really listened to so-called Gospel music before-- honestly, virgin ears. But.... wow! Spectacular.

For those coming from other musical regions (I myself am partial to blues,) or for those who never considered "Gospel" before, I beg you, give this album a try. While this album is broadly defined as "Gospel" there is so much more musically here. There is Gospel, of course, but also a healthy dose of blues (Charlie Musselwhite on harmonica), a hint of funk, a sprinkling of soul, a new interpretation of rock (Clapton, Norman Greenbaum), and one (surprisingly effective) nugget of rap--- all stirred with a soul-nourishing positive vibe, and filtered through the Blind Boys' unique musicality.

This is a very special and magical brew that will bring you up and leave you there, even after the music stops.

Give it a try!

5 out of 5 stars Awesome early L.A. punk rock.......2007-01-28

The Weirdos are one of the often overlooked standouts from the first wave of L.A. punk rock bands (along with the rightfully acclaimed X and Germs). They created some wonderful, quirky punk rock. These songs were recorded live & in studio between 1977-1981 with 3 studio tracks from 1989. This collection runs the gamut of Weirdo rock from the anthemic-punk live version of "We Got The Neutron Bomb" from 1977, the great 60's-garage-punk sound of "Hideout" from 1980, the straight out Rock N' Roll of "7 & 7 Is" from 1989, the almost surf-guitar-rock of "Jungle Rock" from 1980, to three very eclectic instrumentals. An awesome mix of styles that The Weirdos very much make their own. This collection is amazing, The Weirdos are amazing!
(Interesting fact: Nicky Beat from The Weirdos played drums on early Germs recordings.)

5 out of 5 stars Better than the first volume........2005-02-16

Don't feel like typing too much, but I like this volume more than volume one. Most of the songs here are also from the years 1977-1981, so in that respect this is like volume 1, part 2. But the unreleased and live tracks on this compilation make it better than the first, and definitely a keeper.

5 out of 5 stars do the dance do the dance do the dance!.......2004-04-08

a truly amazing compilation with lots of previously unreleased tracks. there are a few songs off condor, but most are early 80's or late 70's. live versions of some familiar tunes like "destroy all music" along with experimental stuff that never made it beyond the stage. this runs the gammut through the weirdos entire range. awesome

5 out of 5 stars Does it work? Yes, oddly enough it does!.......2007-07-21

I am a dyed-in-the-wool Mellencamp fan and I have been since "American Fool" came out. Fans like me could either love projects like this, or absolutely hate them and view them like a desecration. The attitude taken torwards the project has a lot to do with it and this album has taken a respectful attitude torwards Mellencamp's work.

The songs have been adapted for String Quartet but have not been radically altered - you can sing right along with them if you'd like. Most have been thoughtfully chosen - for example, if it featured a strong fiddle component, such as "Paper in Fire" than it was worked in to the album.

"Peaceful World" is achingly beautiful in this adaptation. "Small Town" has a more melancholy tone than the original song, but it is not at all inapproriate. It is also quite beautiful and it is respectful reinterpretation of this anthem to small town life.

The only duds in the group are "Hurts So Good" and "Jack and Diane." Unlike the other songs which seem to have been carefully chosen for their string quarted friendliness, these had to have been chosen because they are two Mellencamp standards - you cannot have a collection of his work without them. Heck, the first song I cued up was "Jack and Diane". It just did not translate well.

So, final grade: A-. Most are strong, two are tremendous, two are weak.

If you are a true Mellencamp fan (a Mellenhead, if you will) this one is one to pick up.

From the Runaways to the Donnas, the garage has served as a safe haven for women who would rather be rock stars than sleep with them. The latest quartet of girls to strap on electric guitars, throw on a pair of scuffed-up Converse sneakers, and howl like maniacs comes from the small town of Robertsfors, Sweden. Like the finest work of fellow Swedes the Hives and Division of Laura Lee, Sahara Hotnights' brash debut album runs exclusively on heavy riffs and even heavier attitude. They roll out the hairy '70s punk guitars for "Alright Alright (Here's My Fist, Where's the Fight?)," talks hair-yanking trash on "Only the Fakes Survive," and does a bang-up early Blondie tribute with "Keep Up the Speed." Explosive, indeed. --Aidin Vaziri

Album Description

2001 release for Swedish indie rock act inspired by Blondie & PJ Harvey, the followup to their 1999 release, C'mon Let's Pretend. 13 tracks in all including 'Fire Alarm', 'Fall Into Line' & 'A Perfect Mess'.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars sexy crazy cool.......2004-04-21

When I first heard about The Donnas and saw a picture of them I thought they were going to sound great. Maybe something like Sahara Hotnights actually do. This band is another import from the Sweden scene which we write about so much about in Free Williamsburg. We are on it. Sahara Hotnights released their first record in 1997, so even though they look like jailbait they are veterans of the scene in their early 20s. Their fresh take on music is a mix of new wave and punk. This is the music that is taking over Sweden and now the world. It's always interesting to see different takes. It's more exotic that way. Most of us need to make room in our record collections for something like this.

It begins with "Alright Alright" and "Keep The Speed Up" which are both fast paced songs with original melodies. The guitar playing is jagged and crisp. It's hard to believe that there could be a female Stooges. Since they have been doing this band from such an early age they seem world weary and skilled. The best song is "On Top Of Your World" and defines their original sound. Sometimes they are like a more melodic Social Distortion in their early days. They do draw from the well of punk but from no one in particular. Where The Donnas seem stiff at times, this Swedish band seems more expansive and imaginative. If Kim Fowley had this group in the 1970s they would have been the biggest band on the planet. The album is wall to wall speed. If they would have done some slow songs maybe that would be interesting. But who am I to keep these gals back? They could be the next big thing. (...)

4 out of 5 stars Jennie Bomb.......2004-02-02

Sahara Hotnights might be the latest Swedish import but they certainly mark themselves as one of the best. These four ladies bring classic punk rock hooks with just enough of a pop sensibility to make them more palatable to the masses and easier to digest than other like-minded Scandinavian bands - The Hives and The International Noise Conspiracy. *Jennie Bomb* certainly makes the aforementioned boys jealous of the girls' firepower instantly exploding with eleven songs in thirty-two minutes. "On Top Of The World" and "Fire Alarm" are from the punk album No Doubt never made as lead singer Maria Andersson comes off as a prettier Joan Jett fronting the Ramones. Sahara Hotnights are posed to break big with *Jennie Bomb* and it won't be long until their name is mentioned with the same reverence of other grrrl rawkers Sleater Kinney and L7.

3 out of 5 stars They Rock Alright Alright!.......2003-10-30

Sahara Hotnights are full of rock, edge, and attitude. Forget Avril Lavine, these girls really do rock. You will be rocking from the first track to the last track. Alright Alright!!

5 out of 5 stars GARAGE GURLZ RULE MY SKOOL.......2003-10-01

one of my most favorite girl groups right now. They're fiesty, pushy, aggresive fems who know how to write songs with POP ROCK HOOKS FROM HEAVEN. I have to admit that, at least for myself, this "garage rock" band of girls is the best one around. Their songs are solid, unshakable, and extremely CATCHY. Oh yeah, and they're some of the sexiest girls in rock right now.. droool

5 out of 5 stars Cheers to Sahara Hotnights!.......2003-07-03

This Swedish girl rock group have a good grasp of the key ingredients to great rock music: attitude and talent. With their good looks and "I'm-gonna-kick-your-...-with-my-hot-boots-if-you-don't-shut-up-and-listen" attitude, they will be sure to entertain you. They definitly make better and harder rock/punk music than most of their all-male AND all-female rock contemporaries. It's obvious to anyone after listening to the record that these rock chics know how to make great punk/rock music.

3 out of 5 stars Some True Shining Moments.......2007-02-06

This is a great CD for all fans of glam metal or 'hair metal'
the sound is just about perfect,the vocals have a very distinct sound that fits with the music absolutely perfectly
There are definitely more than a few filler songs however,which is a shame because if the CD was narrowed down to the best 10 songs I think it would have been a true classic,as it stands the ballads are really what make this one shine,in particular the song "Airport Called Sad"
One band that this really reminds me of is 'Pretty Boy Floyd' (which is a compliment as they are one of my absolute favorite bands)

The Upside - This CD shows a true master of 'glam rock' and some of the songs are so beautiful it nearly brings tears to your eyes,mainly "Airport Called Sad" which brings to mind classic Guns N Roses meets Black Crowes (trust me it works) Rock Sex City is a great rocking tune,Johnny in the sky has lots of atmosphere,Magenta Sky also has some great atmosphere

The Downside - The production isn't the greatest,it isn't horrible but it is far from the quality many of their peers were releasing,the bigger problem though was the amount of filler songs,tunes that just weren't memorable,which is a shame because you can see,hear,and feel the potential for greatness in this CD

The Bottom Line - I really wanted to love this CD and I do on some of the tracks,it is definitely good enough for me to recommend this to any fans of glam or 'hair' metal,and at this price it's most definitely worth it for the song 'Airport Called Sad' alone,if you love this style of singing and music you should also check out the band X-Terra's release "Wolves" and all of Bill Hunt's solo work...Adam Bomb's Grave New World is most definitely at times a great example of what glam rock is meant to be and I recommend it...donutman says so!!!

This cd is a treasure that I cannot believe can be bought for a penny! Beautiful harmony vocals, majestic rock that veers into metal territories, back to melodic indie rock, and then almost speed metal. This album gives me a rush the same way when I heard Queen's first album back in 1973. Litany plays with a power and finesse that is lacking in many of the newer popular bands. These girls rock, and have a strong progressive feel in their music. I hope they someday have the opportunity to record again. I'll be waiting patiently...

Amazon.com

The exploits of Ian Fleming's British super-agent James Bond have long since become the longest running film series in history, spanning 40 years and counting. Not the least of the cycle's charm has been its music, a body of work that encompasses pop clichés (the twangy guitar of Monty Norman's original "James Bond Theme") and elegant underscores alike. While this collection spans music from Dr. No to The World Is Not Enough, decades of various legal entanglements prevented it from becoming the ultimate Bond music anthology. This is more a credible simulation, a newly recorded collection of cues and suites (including music previously unreleased on the original soundtracks) performed by Nic Raine and the City of Prague Symphony Orchestra. With John Barry's lush, ever-evocative scores both forming the core and setting the tone (but also featuring the work of George Martin, David Arnold, Michael Kamen, Bill Conti, and Eric Serra), it's the most comprehensive--if not exactly authentic--collection of Bond music yet attempted. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars almost the perfect James Bond collection.......2005-07-20

this 4 CD box has most of the familiar James Bond compositions.

Still,some tunes are missing(from for instance Thunderball and For Your Eyes Only)and most of the time the attention is on the instrumental version of the title track which is a bit of a shame.And yet,there are too many great pieces on this collection to make it a failure.Alpine Drive,Dawn Raid at Fort Knox,On Her Majesty's Secret Service(every track),Miss Goodhead and so on.All great pieces that not only show the great talent of John Barry but also the great power of James Bond films.Cause when you hear the music,you see the scenes in front of you.

Very much a recommendation to all Bond and Barry fans although sometimes it focusses too much on title songs.The only solution is to buy all separate soundtracks.

5 out of 5 stars Good Collection.......2005-02-24

Very nice packaging and good tracks from the Bond music library make this an anoutstanding item. "From Russia With Love" and "Diamonds Are Forever" contain beautiful and energetic renditions. The John Barry music is handled quite well. I didn't real care for the David Arnold selections. "The World Is Not Enough" was weak. Overall it is a good collection just the same.

3 out of 5 stars Not excatly what I expected.......2003-04-10

I when I read some of the reviews of this I thought that this was a complete collection of all the originals of the Theme songs of every James Bond movie and remakes done by the Prague Philharmonic of some of the other songs in the various movies. After recieveing this ... I started to listen to it and found out that it was all done by the orchestra. The are very good, but to a point it is not the same thing as owning a disc will all the orignal songs on it. Overall, this good if all the you want is the orchestral versions of most of the songs in the movies or the suites out of some of the movies. To a point these don't compare to the orignals. Keep looking if you want a set with all the orignals songs in it.

4 out of 5 stars The James Bond CD for the John Barry purist?.......2003-01-28

Let's cut to the chase. Nic Raine and the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra do John Barry's work justice. 90% of this collection is as close as you can get to the original James Bond soundtracks. The other 10% lends itself to some artistic license with respect to the arrangements. Most notable is the main theme to Goldfinger. Also Nic slips in a few previously unreleased tracks. You will find these on the On Her Majesty's Secret Service and Golden Eye tracks. This CD boxed set is definitely made for the Bond soundtrack fan. The die hard John Barry "purist"/ traditionalist may find some of these tracks questionable at first, but after a few times Nic Raine's artistic license gives a fresh perspective to the familiar Bond/ Barry themes. The only reservation I have with this CD set is with some of selections that are performed. For instance, from Goldfinger, "Dawn Raid At Fort Knox" was a poor selection considering the selection available on that particular soundtrack. The most famous 007 soundtrack of all I dare say. Overall Nic hits the mark, and this CD set is a tribute to Barry's (as well as, George Martin's, Marvin Hamlish's, and Bill Conti's and David Arnold's) work. It's all here in one collection. I am a die-hard Bond soundtrack fan, and to the casual soundtrack fan I say this CD is set all you need to experience the Bond music legacy. To those who are hard core 007 soundtrack fans ...this is a FANTASTIC "addition" to your collection. This has to be the BEST (and probably the only) 007 "soundtrack" compilation. Whereas all the others feature the "main themes" from the Bond films as originally recorded, this one truly gives you the Bond experience.

3 out of 5 stars Very enjoyable with most of the BOND music you'd want........2002-12-08

This is similar but more comprehensive than another BOND collection on one CD by the City of Prague Philharmonic. These are good renditions but clearly not the orginals. I must ask if the Prague Philharmonic does not own a harp? It is glaringly missing in the Goldfinger themes and i am sure on others. That harp is an exciting and beautiful touch to the wonderful GOLDFINGER theme and its absents is unfortuneatly very noticeable. Also some of the other themes can even sound muzaky if thats a word(elevator music)
It gets 3 solid stars good collection yet defineatly something is lacking.
