Evidence that one can make a musical about anything, Exhibit A: 1776. As one might expect, the whole concept of making a musical about the creation and signing of the Declaration of Independence was greeted in the late 1960s with, well, ridicule. The show debuted on Broadway in 1969, and three years later, when its run finally ended, it was its producers who had the last laugh. In addition, it toured for an additional two years and beat out Hair (in 1969 yet!) for a Tony Award. This recording, with the original Broadway cast, includes many of the same actors who went on to star in the film, the version with which most audiences today are probably familiar. One notable exception is Rex Everhart, who replaced Howard da Silva at some performances and on this recording. But there's still William Daniels as John Adams, though in some cases his performance is more subdued than it was on film. Musically, 1776 is an odd creation, considering when it came into being. As one might expect, there's a lot of fife and drum going on, especially in the opening number and during "The Lees of Old Virginia." For those less than familiar with the plot, it hinges on the idealism of Adams, who's trying his best to back up the American Revolution with some legislative action, and spends much of his time arguing with either the Continental Congress or God, as in "Piddle, Twiddle, and Resolve": "A second flood, a simple famine / Plagues of locusts everywhere / Or a cataclysmic earthquake / I'd accept with some despair / But no, you sent us Congress / Good God, sir, was that fair?" (One could argue that he gets further with God.) While not entirely historically accurate, and containing some rather peculiar numbers (Franklin, Jefferson, and Adams sitting around debating what their new country's national bird is going to be ranks among the oddest), there's no questioning 1776's staying power. --Genevieve Williams

4 out of 5 stars Sound Quality not perfect on CD.......2007-07-18

This is a new CD, overall quality and amazon procedure were excellent. The CD itself on a few songs fails to provide enough amplification to the background chorus or secondary singer, thus I must strain to actually hear both duet parts, with the latter almost inaudible. For example, Lee's of Old Virginia, Till Then, and Who will write our new declaration. It is not in my players, but within the CD. I actually ordered this because I wanted Violin by Betty Buckley and am satisfied with the reproduction overall, but it also has the audio problems with Adams and Franklins lines within the song

5 out of 5 stars Before Sondheim's COMPANY and after MAN OF LA MANCHA..........2007-04-30

For me, 1776 is a great companion to MAN OF LA MANCHA as one of the most entertaining AND intellectually worthy amalgams of music, lyrics, book, theme, plot, characterizations and dialogue to ever come out of pre-1970's Broadway musical theatre. Each song is like a little gem, and displays the broad range of emotions and ideas with which 1776 brims. Satiric, romantic, hilarious, heartbreaking, disturbing, dark, inspiring, thoughtful, humane, and even a little bawdy, the songs glide and tromp all over the map, as does the show itself. As with LA MANCHA, 1776 broke open the Broadway musical, making it a pitch-perfect example of what can truly make a musical more than a toe-tapping time killer... while never becoming tedious, pompous, windy, or dull. If anything, it crackles with suspense.

And as to the reviewer who was shocked that it would win out over HAIR? Listen to "Mamma Look Sharp" or "Molasses to Rum to Slaves" to hear exactly the play's political and often-unflattering ideological landscape. This was definitely a Vietnam-era play whose content was as disturbingly pertinent, then, as it is, now. And, despite all of this, the score and play never become leaden or preachy. On the contrary, each performance is a gem, and each character is witty and unique. Who knew that history could be a passionate and fun adventure?

1 out of 5 stars Overrated Tony Award Winner.......2006-06-16

How could this musical win the Tony award having as a competitor a play like HAIR which - for many people - stands as an emblematic theatre piece of the 60's? Who remembers a tune out of this musical? On the contrary, "Aquarius", "I Got Life" or "Walking in Space" are still popular and they play all over the world. Even ZORBA and PROMISES PROMISES - both candidates for the award in the same year - have songs that are still remembered. 1776 may wake up patriotic feelings to American listeners which is quite understandable but the music and songs are old-fashioned, overrated and awfully boring.

5 out of 5 stars Brilliant, Definitive and Remarkably Accurate!.......2005-12-18

1776 has become an institution, thanks to the motion picture which was made of this original Broadway show, and which starred most of the cast from the theatrical production. It gets rerun every July 4th week on some movie channel or local station!

William Daniels IS John Adams to many people, and even though the story of the birth of the United States probably wasn't this lyrical and lively, Composer Sherman Edwards was historically accurate in the facts of the tale.

In addition to learning about the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this is also love story... in fact two love stories, with John Adams and his wife Abigail, separated by circumstance and interacting only in his mind, and Thomas Jefferson and his wife, Martha, here, played by the big throated (and now legendary) Betty Buckley.

There is also a sense of fraternity, with the members of the Continental Congress grappling with the concept of breaking away from a tyranical ruler. And even though you know the outcome, the story is still filled with tension and excitement in the mechanics of it. Just how DID this country get formed?

The disc's liner notes explain the show's libretto and give you some rare behind-the-scenes info about the creation of the musical, the challenges it faced before becoming the standard that it now is, and a bit about the amazing Mr. Edwards, which is a story worthy of being told as well.

It's an Independence Day must!

5 out of 5 stars Saw this on Broadway .......2005-11-12

Saw this show, with original cast, on Broadway in '69 and it has stayed with me ever since then. Every time I listen to these songs, I laugh. The historical figures (done with some tongue-in-cheek) are highly entertaining and even better if you see the movie. I would recommend the dvd for a great, lighthearted evening, and good family entertainment. You can't miss with this one! A winner on all fronts.

5 out of 5 stars good memories for me and fun "new" songs for my children.......2007-06-27

We had ordered this for "The Dukes of Hazzard" theme song for our 4yr old and our whole family has fallen in love with the cd. It makes me want to share some of the old fun and simple shows with my children. I forgot about some of those shows. It brings back good memories for my husband and me and the songs are new and exciting for our children. It's a nice change from children's cd's, but our children still think it's fun. The sound quality is good and the songs included on the cd are a great mix. I would definately recommend this one.

Amazon.com essential recording

Before they set sail for California and a new life as consummate pop songsmiths, Fleetwood Mac were pedigreed British blues rockers with roots in Britain's seminal John Mayall's Blues Breakers and their hearts orbiting Chicago and the Mississippi Delta. One of the few surviving albums from that ill-fated, earlier Mac, Then Play On captures them at a potent turning point: the original two-guitar quartet, with founder Peter Green's sinuous leads complemented by Jeremy Spencer's shimmering slide guitar, had been augmented by third guitarist Danny Kirwan, a Green protégé. Buttressed by Mick Fleetwood's muscular yet restrained drumming and John McVie's steady-as-a-heartbeat bass lines, this edition of the band reveled in moody, compelling guitar showpieces that savor texture and line over sheer speed or volume. Accordingly, the lyrics don't benefit from close study, but the guitars surely do--and when the quintet launches into the best-remembered track here, the classic "Oh, Well" (which reunites the separate electric and acoustic sections originally released as two sides of a single), it's understandable that Green, in his day, was mentioned comfortably in the same breath with Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page. --Sam Sutherland

5 out of 5 stars "Ah, Glorius...Glorious...Gloriious!".......2007-06-13

Spring semester 1971....Santana "Abraxis", The Who "Live At Leeds", The Doors "LA Woman", The Stones "Sticky Fingers", Fleetwood Mac "Then Play On" and "Kiln House". An embarrassment of riches that seemed like it would go on forever. They were always on the turntable, and years later when the nasty fact that CDs just didn't sound as good as LPs reared it's ugly head, these were the albums that I had to re-acquire. "Kiln House" seeped into your bones, and was simply magical. Years later, while playing in my umpteenth bar band, I asked the bass player his favorite desert island album cuts. "'Station Man' Fleetwood Mac", he said immediately and without a moments hesitation. My estimation of him rose to new heights. If you don't have this album or "Then Play On", then you have got to rectify this at once!

4 out of 5 stars The original UK version is the best - 5 stars.......2007-05-08

The thing that annoys me most about this album is that is was butchered.
On the original UK version 'Underway' lead into 'One Sunny Day'. This track has been shortened and it souns awful. 'One Sunny Day' was Kirwans best contribution to this album and it isn't here!. There was no need to have 'O'h Well' on this album becuase it was on the 'Fleetwood Mac's Greatest Hits' album (the red one) where it belonged. The least they could have done was to remove the overlap, it sounds bad. Then there's Madge. What can I say? I would like to search for the person who butchered this album and fight him or her. It would make me feel much better. Then, there's the sound quality... The original album (I have two vinyl copies - with different album covers) is one of my favourite ablums of all time and it grieves me to give it four stars.
For Peter Green fans, check out the brilliant "End Of The Game".

5 out of 5 stars Re-listening to an old "friend" again........2007-03-08

My next door friend and Bassist in my High School Band and beyond, Mike, and I first enjoyed this when it came out in 1969-70....we had picked up on "English Rose" and really liked the Blues and Tunes, but "Then Play On" was something new to our ears.....at the time we knew little about the players except that the original 3 were from Mayall's Bluesbreakers...at the time of our discovery and enjoyment listening to the LP many hours and hours, we were unaware of the influence of the very young Danny Kirwan and the prescence of Christine Perfect on Keys...I recently purchased the CD, having given up the original LP back in the 70's and having listened to it on a cassette copy over the years....The guitar interplay between Green and Kirwan is worth the purchase alone...nothing else quite sounds like this recording....the Plaintive, melancholy tunes that Kirwan and both Green wrote and the Rockin "Rattlesnake Shake" as well as Green's " Oh Well" are true classics for all time....the one thing that pervades through many of these tunes is a loose soulful Jamming that was created as they wrote and recorded....I only wish that I could have seen this Band play live...of course, Jeremy Spencer contributed almost nothing to this recording ,though his slide guitar and on stage persona were integral to the sound of Mac......I never tire of listening to this one of a kind recording...I recommend buying all of the early Mac recordings up through the Bob Welch era with Kirwan still playing and writing on "Bare Trees and "Future Games"....then you can get a sense of how unique these players are.....and let's not forget how great and innovative McVie and Fleetwood are as the bottom of this sound...they will always be one of the best anchor teams in Rock.

4 out of 5 stars Green and Kirwin got them show biz blues and where's Jeremy?.......2007-02-19

I'm knocking down 1 star for a few weak tracks and horrible sound, Peter Green always said if they had a better producer, they would have been huge in the beginning era of the group.

1. Coming Your Way - Danny Kirwin is coming into his own on this record.
2. Closing My Eyes - Great dual guitar harmonys after the last verse and haunting track overall with kettle drum by Mick.
3. Show-Biz Blues - Not my Favorite,acoustic steel blues rave up
4. My Dream - Instrumental by Danny
5. Underway - Another instrumental this time it's Peter's
6. Oh Well - Peter Green's big moment, the classical part is too longgggg.
7. Although The Sun Is Shining - Kirwin's haunting voice is center stage here
8. Rattlesnake Shake - Another forgettable joke number about Mick
9. Searching For Madge - Jam 1
10. Fighting For Madge - Jam 2
11. When You Say - Kirwin is a loss for words
12. LIke Crying - Kirwins song about a girl who likes girls
13. Before The Beginning - Peter's swan song, scary song and one of his all time best

4 out of 5 stars Classic Blues Rock Album.......2007-01-11

Quiet an assortment of tunes on this one. I call it the versatile album because the band delves into the classical music a bit then grinds out some heavy guitar, rhythms, in other portions of the album. It's kinda like a roller coaster ride sometimes you catch your breathe then your adrenaline revs up.

When the departures of original frontman Peter Gabriel and guitarist Steve Hackett left Genesis a studio trio of Phil Collins, Tony Banks, and Mike Rutherford, few could have expected the band to climb to greater levels of commercial success. But that's exactly what happened, and Genesis' left-field rebirth as a unlikely pop act began with this album, which introduced the newly slimmed-down lineup. But that's not the whole story. While the haunting love song "Follow You, Follow Me" introduced the band to the singles charts, elsewhere the group's penchant for accessibly complex composition and evocative lyrical dramas is in force on tracks like "Deep in the Motherlode," "Burning Rope," "Down and Out," and "Ballad of Big." --Scott Schinder

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A turning point for the Group.......2007-07-14

Well it came down to this one, which was essentially a sink or swim for the remaining trio. I love this one. It seems to me that the trio set out to prove a point- that they could make a quality album and boy, they did just that. I think this is very strong and certainly on a par with Duke. The tracks , the production - it all came together for them. An absolute deleight to listen to. Rutherford rises to the challenge and shines on the guitar(ala Deep in the motherlode is brilliant let alone the other tracks).Banks performs to his usual excellent standard(Undertow, Burning rope, Many to Many, The lady lies.)To say that Banks and Rutherford dominate the album is incredibly ignorant.Collins cowrote a few tracks and participated significantly in the others.Oh yes ,for students of fine drumming, listen in to how its done.
The guys rose to the challenge and put together a gem with this one and never looked back-to bad it is often overshadowed by Duke.

5 out of 5 stars Mr Phil Collins.......2007-05-26

Anyone who liked "Wind and Wuthering" would enjoy this album, it's as good as any of the previous post-Gabriel era releases.

4 out of 5 stars A Very Good Album.......2007-04-19

And Then There Were Three is, as the title suggests, the first album made by Genesis after they were cut down to a three-peice. It is evident that they had not yet quite decided what direction they were going to in the album, but at the same time there are a number of good songs.

Tony and Mike each wrote about half of the album, Phil only helping on a couple of the songs. Both Tony and Mike wrote some very good songs and some just okay songs. For me, the highlights of this album are "Undertow", the instrumental section of "Burning Rope", "Deep in the Motherlode", "The Lady Lies", and finally "Follow You, Follow Me", that last song being the band's first big pop hit. It is a beautiful song-the best love song they ever wrote.

Though this album wasn't as good as it's amazing predescessor Wind & Wuthering, nor as good as its successor Duke, it is still a very good album and it is a worthy addittion to any collection of good music, an essential for Genesis fans.

4 out of 5 stars Genesis - I Still Enjoy This One.......2007-04-09

"And Then There Were Three" marked a major transition point for Genesis. Steve Hackett was gone and the band were down to just three original members, Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford, and Tony Banks. The result of this would find the band moving in a more commercial direction and somewhat away from their prog rock roots. The majority of the material on "Three" is shorter with the longest track clocking in at slightly over 7 minutes. Most of the rest of the songs reside in the 3 to 4 minute range. The album was also the first to find the band breaking into the top 40 singles charts in the U.S. with the album closer "Follow You Follow Me". Mike Rutherford took over the guitar duties from Steve Hackett. While Mike is a competent guitarist he is not in the same league with Hackett which somewhat diminishes from the music here. This is somewhat made up for by Tony Banks wall of keyboards, and Phil Collins outstanding drumming. This album gets slogged by a lot of Genesis fans as a "sell out" bowing to the lure of big money and radio airplay. Personally I have always liked it. The album is probably not as strong as it's predecessors, but most of the songs are good and there is still enough progginess here to please the hard core fan. Highlights include "Down And Out", "Snowbound", "Burning Rope", "Deep In The Motherload". All of these are solid and there really are no songs that I don't like on the disc. The single "Follow You Follow Me" closes the album and almost sounds like something that was tacked on at the end. It really does not fit all that well with the rest of the material in style. None of the songs on this album have become what most fans consider classics with very few of them played in the Genesis live show very many years after this album's tour. Still, this is one of those discs that I don't pull out very often, but when I do I am always pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoy it.

Country's honey-voiced hopeless romantic gleans his career with this satisfying collection featuring rerecordings of 14 hits, his original version of "Paint me a Birmingham," and two new numbers. He's made fresh gold with "Used to the Pain," which sounds like a classic Tracy Lawrence ballad, full of regret over a heartbroken past, yet dappled with hope for the future. There's also "If I Don't Make It Back," a sentimental male-bonding story of a departing soldier's words to his buddies with a tearjerker ending. The older tunes, like "Birmingham" and "Today's Lonely Fool," stand time's test, as does the undiminished emotional palette of Lawrence's voice. Although most of these numbers are sad or starry-eyed honky-tonk, the set ends with the rowdy "If the Good Die Young," a rocker with the kickin' line "I'm gonna live forever if the good die young." But with more #1 hits than Glen Campbell, Ernest Tubb, and a host of other legends, Lawrence has already attained his own brand of longevity. --Ted Drozdowski

Album Description

There are 17 songs in this hits collection. I re-recorded 14 of my past hits, included the original version of "Paint Me A Birmingham," and recorded two brand new songs. In making this record, I got the chance to study myself as a vocalist and as a person. I listened to what I did with "Sticks And Stones" all the way through what I did with "Paint Me A Birmingham." It was pretty educational to go back through 14 years of my life and pick myself apart. I learned a lot about myself.

We were intent on recapturing the magic for this CD. I wanted the cuts to be as close sonically to the original recordings as we could make them. We matched tempos, snare sounds and guitar licks--everything. I even sang along with the originals to try to get my phrasing as close as possible. We did all that we could, short of stepping back in time, to get as close to reliving the moments those records were recorded.

We worked with a lot of the same players that played on my original recordings. We talked about the studios we played in. We cut up and reminisced about all of the good times on the road during those years. We talked about the path my music had traveled with different producers. I could hear my growth and I could hear the strain in my voice during the times when there was pain in my life. It brought it all back to life for me. In a lot of ways I found the whole process healthy and therapeutic.

This album captures the essence of Tracy Lawrence. Long out of country limelight, we oft forget that he was one of the big stars of the early 90s with over 20 number #1 hits. Paint me a Birmingham and Alibi are two of the true classics in country music ... the other songs on this album are a great compilation of his hits and remind us of this singer's incredible voice and magnatism. If you've never heard of Tracy Lawrence or if you've put him on the backburner due to his absence the last 10 years, this album will turn you into an avid fan! His recent hit "Find out who your friends are" gives me hope that he's back for good. Lets keep our fingers crossed.

5 out of 5 stars This CD is the Best!!!.......2007-03-11

Six months ago I didn't even know who Tracy Lawrence was, and I kept hearing one of his songs on the radio and finally through much effort searched him out and bought this CD. It is my favorite! I have listened to it to and from work every day since I bought it (four months ago). I love all of the songs.

5 out of 5 stars Lovely tunes..........2007-04-21

I love this soundtrack. I never saw the film (it seemed like a coming of age/chick flick, which is always a bad sign), but I love the artists here. Sugar Sugar by The Archies, Hitchin' a Ride by Vanity Fare, and Band of Gold by Frenda Payne are all here. Oh, yeah, and Daydream Believer, a wonderful Jon Stewart tune performed by the wonderful Monkees. The rest of the songs are lovely, too. Picking this up is a lot cheaper than buying the songs seperately. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful...

5 out of 5 stars Fun all the way!.......2005-06-21

You can listen to this soundtrack any time of the year and it's bound to cheer you up, it's a marvellous accompaniment to a fab film. Although it might lack Nancy Sinatra's classic song 'These Boots Were Made For Walking' thats no reason to overlook the great collection of songs that have been brought together in this great CD. A purchase wouldn't be a waste of money by any stretch of the imagination it's really worth every penny. (or cent as the case may be)

5 out of 5 stars I`m listening to it now!.......2005-05-27

I listen to this soundtrack all the time. Everyone loves it as you can see. I mean who can`t? It`s a great soundtrack. Possibly the best? Who knows? I find it great and if you listen to the samples or buy the cd I bet you`ll love. If you don`t just click no under the helpful review thing, but I bet you anything that everyone will find this helpful. I love the movie and the songs in it so I bought the cd, well my mom did and I am so thankful for it. If you like the movie you need to listen to this. It`s what you need to do. If you like the samples or the cd you must see the movie. It`s PG-13 because of sexual reffrences, laungue, and audult themes. You should be at least 9 to see it. I saw it well when I was ten and it was a little over my head as my mom calls it. Anyway I`m not here to talk about the movie, I`m here to talk about the soundtrack that rocks. Like I said earlier this is a soundtrack you will love and listen to all the time.



Thank`s for your time,
Vicki

5 out of 5 stars This music has a place in my heart.......2005-02-27

I liked the movie, but I really love this soundtrack. It's what I put on when I'm tired of being an adult. The Archies, The Jackson Five, Stevie Wonder... they were all a part of my childhood... back when I took my allowance to Woolworth's every week and to buy a 45. If you remember those days fondly, you'll love this album. It's full of bubblegum favorites that still bring a smile to my face.

5 out of 5 stars buy it! buy it!..........2004-11-19

this movie changed my life! it was like me and my friends when i was younger. and when i found the soundtrack i always listen to it. its like im in the movie. this soundtrack is the best! it has all the great songs from the late 60's early 70's, please buy this soundtrack believe me it will not diapoint you!

5 out of 5 stars From someone who despises American musical theater.......2007-06-04

Okay... wow.

In the Brent Spiner Fangirl Legal Contract, it specifies that said fangirl must purchase any and all vocal recordings containing said Brent Spiner (and that she will not, in any way or at any time, mention how much he sounds like Judy Garland on steroids). Which is why I purchased this CD.

He... ripped... into... this... part. That's the only way I can put it. I was floored from start to finish.

The work, as a whole, is something of a consuming thing. Be prepared to sit in silence for a few minutes after you're done with this one, because after hearing the whole thing, silence will be the only followup that does it justice.

3 out of 5 stars A Mans Show.......2006-07-24

For anyone looking for male songs, or a male show to put on, this is the soundtrack for you. It has great ballads as well as big chorus numbers for the male sex. However the subject matter just didnt grab me by the throat and make me love it. History isnt my thing. That being said, the music and lyrics are great, and worth the money. This is a good one to get if your interested in broadway, but not the Rodgers and Hamerstein style. My favorite songs are "Molasses to Rum" and "Momma Look Sharp."

5 out of 5 stars Who knew Mr. Data had it in him?.......2006-07-05

I saw this musical in NYC and have never been so moved by a Broadway show before. Brent Spiner has a lovely yet commanding voice that makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck in parts - you so believe in the rightness of his convictions as Adams. All the performances are first rate, but Spiner really shines.

The argument can be made that this musical was "of its time" meaning the 1960's, but I think the songs still hold up as they entertain as well as educate us. Much of the lyrics and dialogue are authentic.

Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars I Love It!.......2006-02-27

The soundtrack will make you laugh, cry and sing along. You'll have goosebumps as you hear the songs of the men and women involved in the creation of our country.

5 out of 5 stars SURPRISINGLY TERRIFIC.......2006-02-23

As a PURIST fan of ORIGINAL musicals, and not one who enjoys all the revivals (which indicates a lack of current writers...no surprise), I was AMAZED at how GOOD this revival is on recording. I am sorry I missed the show in New York.

All the barking and growling in the world could not detract from the fact that DMX is a troubled, tormented soul. On And Then There Was X, the multiplatinum-selling Dark Man X uses his signature fragmented flow with its singsongy vocal inflections to preach, teach, and reveal. Melodramatic storytelling has always been his shtick, whether it's tales of robbing liquor stores, plotting violent murders, or teaching shorties the code of the streets. X's inner conflicts are laid out on "Angel," a dialogue between himself and his Lord, and his ability to acknowledge different perspectives of a situation (i.e., repercussions) on several songs add depth to his character. The anthemlike "What's My Name," with its affirmations "I have no friends" and "I'm not a nice person," proves that money, fame, and popularity do not translate into happiness for DMX. --Celine Wong

Customer Reviews:

2 out of 5 stars Not a Whole Lot to Like Here..........2007-06-19

After hearing DMX's groundbreaking debut and great follow-up, I was pretty hyped to purchase '...And Then There Was X'. However, this album was very disappointing back then, and listening to it today, it sounds even worse. This is lacking the same cool gritty atmosphere from the last two albums while still managing to sound repetitive.

The original single, 'What's My Name?', was a track I loved back in 1999 when this album was released, but the track grew old pretty fast. 'Party Up', years later, still hasn't gotten old, and is probably the most well-known track here. 'What These B****** Want' (featuring Sisqo of the 'Thong Song' fame) was a decent track originally, but listening to it today, in 2007, is almost painful. Besides 'Don't You Ever', and 'One More Road to Cross' the rest of the album is either the same stuff you've heard before - and better -, or they're lacking interesting lyrics and beats.

This is a very forgettable album, and a true disappointment compared to DMX's first two excellent cds. The funny thing is, I never checked out another DMX album after this. Oh well, 'X', your time has come and gone, but you'll be remembered for the first two albums you've provided us with.

2 out of 5 stars ...And Then There Was This Album (Rating: 5 out of 10- -2.5 stars).......2007-03-18

Around the time when this album dropped, Ruff Ryders were getting a lot of recognition with everything they were doing. There was a Ruff Ryders Compilation LP, and Eve just dropped her debut, in which both were solid. With DMX dropping his third LP "...And Then There Was X", really didn't put too much of an impact on listeners as his first two album did. Possibly because of two things: 1. His repetitive flow; and 2. The trademark ad-libs that he made in the background (his barking being the most common) was all over the album, and were starting to get a little old. So this whole album was very similar of his frist two albums, in which both dropped a year earlier.

When he dropped "What's My Name" as the lead single, I believed fans were anticipating a rowdy and loud DMX, that they were used to hearing. The fact is that they did get what they were looking for. The problem was, that it was all stale and unappealing, as well as the production. Most of the problems existed in the beginning of the CD, mainly with "One More Road To Cross" & "Fame". The dissapointments go further down in the CD with more skippable tracks, even with the bonus track where X and a female name Dyme tag-team verses full of sex talk on the song "Good Girls and Bad Guys".

But this CD isn't all bad though. Aside from it's lead single there were some good tracks. "X Is Commin' For Ya" is a dope track. Before it became overrated, "Party Up" was another good track. "D-X-L" with The Lox and Drag-On was another great track. "Angel" with Regina Bell as well as the third single "What These ****** Want" with Sisqo are both solid tracks that were better than the skippable ones. Thats all of the good tracks I can think of.

This CD as a whole isn't really too special. If you're already a DMX fan, you probably have this album. I just feel that he could have came a little better that what we all expected from him. This album doesn't suck, but it does has it's moments throughout the CD. I have all of X's albums with the exception of his recent "Year Of The Dog Again", and I find this to be his worst LP. Yes, even "Grand Champ" was better than this album. If you're new to DMX, start with his first two albums to get a better level of how he sounds at his best. This album is easily forgettable.

5 out of 5 stars Incredible Cd.........2006-08-05

DMX is an incredible rapper when he dropped Its Dark and Hell is Hot, Flesh of my Flesh, Blood of my Blood, and this cd. Most of the song will not make you sleep it'll just make you wanna listen to it more. I have to say this is my 2nd favorite DMX CD and it has alot of great songs in it!
1.(Skit)
2.5/5 This is real street music and nice beat.
3.5/5 Same thing what i just said last time.
4.5/5 A good song that you can roll around in ya car and listen it around.
5(Skit)
6.5/5 Good song that he talks about *Shorty*
7.5/5 I LOVE THIS SONG RIGHT HERE!!! YALL GON MAKE ME LOSE MY MIND UP IN HERE UP IN HERE. In conclusion, great club song!
8.5/5X starts to drop heat on this song. He pretty much talks about how he hustle and other things.
9.4/5 more slower song, and great hook
10.5/5 ANOTHER CRAZY SONG FROM X!!! WHATS MY NAME.
11.5/5X talks about it not all about money,clothes,hoes. In my head, i think it true
12.5/5When i heard this song, I just knew Swizz dropped a hot beat for X to get his beast on and slaughter this track. All i have to say,X is just hardcore on this song and just RIPPED it!
13.(skit)
14.5/5 a pretty much freestyle song from DMX,Styles.p,Sheek,Drag-on,jadakiss
15.4/5 it a good song but the beat is very near average.
16.(skit)
17.5/5 Another good deep joint song from X.
18.2/5 man... this is kinda of a boring song.. i mean why does it have end with a bad song..

Anyways, my conclusion this is one of X's greatest cd ever and you should buy it!

5 out of 5 stars Rogers song My Land is Kenya.......2007-06-02

I saw a live Roger Wittaker on tv a few years ago and they played the song "My Land is Kenya". I have all of Roger Whittakers music, but I was never able to find this song on any album or CD until now. If you love Roger Whittakers music then you must hear this song. I found it on a DVD tape at a garage sale last year and the tape was "Roger Whittaker in Kenya" made by Sony. A video of Kenya plays while Roger sings this song. It with out a doubt is one of the most moving things he has ever done not to mention the beauty of the song. Treat yourself to something special. John Garner Roseville, Ca.

4 out of 5 stars Long time ago.......2006-11-07

I'm so glad with this CD of Roger Whittaker. It containts most of the songs I loved so much in the '70-'80. A wonderful warm voice, beautiful songs, a dream of a CD !

5 out of 5 stars Great overview of Roger's career.......2005-05-26

Born in Kenya of English parents in 1936, Roger spent his childhood in Kenya before moving to South Africa in 1956, later moving to Britain in 1959. He didn't originally plan a musical career but gradually drifted into one, or so it seems. Success was slow to come Roger's first significant success came in 1967 with Mexican whistler, which was a huge hit in several European countries but failed to chart in Britain. His popularity spread to Australia and Canada before he finally had a top twenty UK hit with Durham town at the end of 1969. In the following year, Roger made the UK top ten with I don't believe in if anymore. A UK top twenty hit, New world in the morning, came later that year. Two minor hits (Why, Mammy blue) followed in 1971, after which the hits dried up - for a while.

In 1975, Roger had his most successful hit when Last farewell made number two in the UK and also made the top twenty in America. Elvis Presley later covered the song. Despite making further excellent records such as River lady and First hello last goodbye, Roger again disappeared from the British charts. He returned just once more, when a duet with Des O'Connor (Skye boat song) just made the UK top ten in 1986.

Seven UK hits hardly does justice to Roger's illustrious career, in which he has sold many millions of albums around the world, but this collection contains all those songs, plus the others I've mentioned and some other great songs including two new ones specially recorded for this compilation, which provides a great introduction to Roger's music.

3 out of 5 stars Remakes Remakes.......2005-05-11

I am disappointed with this album, because though I thought it was a re-mastered version of his original hits, my four favorite songs - Last Farewell, Durham Town, I Don't Believe In IF Anymore, and Mon Pays Bleu are all inferior remakes.

5 out of 5 stars Greatest Hits and Then Some.......2005-01-17

If you are a true RW fan, you will love this album; not only because all his greatest charting hits are present, but because a few gems from hard-to-find recordings have made their way onto the album. Sure, all the best are here: "Durham Town," "Mammy Blue," "New World in the Morning," etc., but the strength of the album lies in the pleasant surprise tracks: "I'm Back," a selection from the 1970s Kenya concept album that doubles as an announcement that Roger's short-lived retirement is over; "The Other Side," a complex and moving song about death and heaven that Roger wrote after his father was murdered; and "The Best I Can," from his "Celebration" album, written for Roger's 30th year in the music business. This album contains a generous 22 tracks, the final two tracks being two of the best cuts from his newest album, "Moments in My Life." "Jenny" is a catchy tune that I can't stop singing and is a translation of the German version, while "Feather On The Wind" is the story of a man whose feet are made to roam. This album truly spans the years, and is a great addition to anyone with an RW collection.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Though it's admittedly kind of cheesy in spots, this is still a classic jam band album! You'll have lots of fun with it........2006-01-06

O.A.R. is kind of a cheesy jam band (their lyrics are usually pretty bad), but they still deliver some quality tunes. Every track here is fun to listen to, and in the end that's essentially the most important thing. What's great about this album, specifically, is that the production is great - everything is crystal clear even on a low-quality sound file. Marc Roberge also does a pretty good job with the vocals. Musically it's pretty standard jam band material, but every track is catchy with a great hook. If you love jam bands chances are you'll love O.A.R.'s "In Between Now & Then". "Hey Girl" and "James" are definitely GREAT tunes which definitely bumps it up to a "5" from a "4.5". All the pros definitely far outweigh what cons there are here (which aren't many). Highly recommended!

Highlights include:
the entire album!

5 out of 5 stars Terrific.......2005-09-23

This album is terrific. The new "Hey Girl" version is soooo great. "Old Man Time" is also a good song. Basically, you'll like every song on this cd. I bought this album 1-2 years ago, when I realized that it came out, and I didn't have it. I'm a BIG O.A.R. fan. Mark's vocals in this are incredible. Anyone will like O.A.R. Jeez, I wish I could play Hey Girl on the acoustic guitar, since I'm a big fan, and I own a special Fender Telecaster that I want to sell because I want a Les Paul. If you possibly want to buy it, my e-mail is [...] My Telecaster isn't any normal black and white one.

5 out of 5 stars You Can't Help But Like This Band!.......2005-04-23

The first song I ever heard by these guys was Right On Time actually on the radio driving to Maine. I then bought In Between Now & Then and was hooked. I then furthered my habit purchasing 34th & 8th, moving on to Any Time Now and Souls Aflame. This band has a solid and distinctly unique sound. I actually saw them tonight in concert in Kingston, PA and they are even more unbelievable live. A new song titled "5250" has an incredible melody to it. If you can put in one of their CDs and not have the urge to either sing along or at a minimum tap a finger or foot, you are melodically challenged.

4 out of 5 stars Great Band.......2005-01-03

This was the first o.a.r. cd that I bought. It is a great CD, but if you want something incredible, get Any Time Now or another live recording. If you like them, you've really got to see them live, their live stuff is incredible.

5 out of 5 stars More Addictive than Nicotine.......2004-08-21

I just love this band's sound. It gets trapped in your brain and leaves you wanting more and more...the rare times when I'm not listening to OAR, I'm humming their songs in my head. Beautiful. Timeless. Classic. Reminds me of old DMB meets old BNL (think Rock Spectacle) mixed with a touch of Sublime.
