Take My Hand: Gospel Favourites.......2007-05-21

The old songs were not changed. They were juist as I rembered them as a child.

"Take My Hand: Gospel Favourites" CD by Elvis Presley.......2007-05-07

The CD was beautiful and perfect. I used express delivery, and it came right on time for my mother's funeral. I was very pleased.

Soulful and inspiring.......2007-01-21

On this impressive collection of gospel songs Elvis is variously backed by the Jordanaires, Sweet Inspirations, Imperials and the Stamps Quartet. Chronologically the material ranges from songs recorded from 1957 to the early 1970s. They are mostly gospel classics but there are also later compositions like Put Your Hand In The Hand which was a pop hit in 1971.

Several styles are represented, from the slow and solemn hymns like Take My Hand Precious Lord, He Touched Me and I Believe to rhythmic uptempo tracks like Joshua Fit The Battle, By And By and Working On The Building with its lovely backing vocals. My personal favorites include the opening track Take My Hand, this version of Amazing Grace, How Great Thou Art, In The Garden and Where Could I Go But To The Lord.

I was a bit surprized to learn that Swing Down Sweet Chariot is an uptempo rock song, not the well-known Swing Low Sweet Chariot. The music is inspiring and soulful, revealing the devotional side of the magnificent king of rock and roll. The booklet contains an informative history of Elvis' gospel recordings by Brian Nevill and four photographs: full color one of the Jordanaires and Millie Kirkham, a black and white one of the Imperials plus the front and back pics of Elvis.

Take My Hand: Gospel Favourite Elvis Presley.......2006-08-31

These songs sure bring back some good memories of singin in church. I remembered almost all of them and felt just as good singing them as I did as a teenager. To me Elvis Presley's gospel albums were the best of anything he did. whiling listening to him sing you can feel his love of gospel music coming through. As a teenager I had all his gospel albums but they got ruined when I moved from home. Great memories, great singing.

Elvis' first love.......2004-12-15

Gospel music was Elvis' first love and at the time of his discovery by the late Sam Phillips he was seriously considering joining the Songfellows, a gospel quartet, instead of signing to Sun Records. Throughout his career Elvis always used full gospel groups rather than backing singers, on stage and in the studio. At the same time that he was recording All Shook Up in January 1957, he was also recording songs for a gospel EP, Peace In The Valley, all of which were included on Elvis' Christmas Album later that year, and also appear here. 
This collection also draws from three gospel albums that Elvis released: His Hand In Mine (1960), How Great Thou Art (1966) and He Touched Me (1971) and a couple of stray tracks including his hit single Crying In The Chapel, plus a medley of two songs he recorded and filmed at the Elvis On Tour sessions but which remained in the can until 1994. 
Although a great rock singer, unlike his contemporaries, Elvis had the range to sing with an unmatched purity and sincerity on both devotional gospels and secular ballads and wasn't afraid to match his voice with the best gospel singers in the business, as this set ably demonstrates

I am not a music critic nor do I "know" much about music but if you love lovely violin music you will love this.

Great Recording.......2007-01-04

The Kreisler pieces are played exceptionally well. The one disc alone is worth the price of the double disc collection. Great playing.

Where have I been?.......2007-07-08

"Seemingly nonexistent in the eyes of American pop culture -- yet continually boasting some of the nation's highest grossing concerts -- Canadian rockers the Tragically Hip have managed to secure themselves legendary status both above and underground while remaining almost complete anonymous. Like any good band of the people, the Hip know that their fans are their lifeblood, so in compiling their first ever "greatest hits" collection, they left it up to the listeners. Chosen online at their website, the 34 remastered tracks that make up Yer Favorites -- two of which, the ballsy "No Threat" and the wistful "New Maybe," are brand new -- may not go deep enough for longtime followers, but for anyone who has spent the better part of their musical life wondering what all of the fuss was about, this is their chance to get schooled. Poetic yet accessible, raw yet grandiose, the Tragically Hip have often been lumped unfairly into the jam band circuit, when in reality they have far more in common with an act like Pearl Jam than they do Phish. They're an arena bar band maintaining the rawness of a juke joint amid the thunderous applause of 150,000 pairs of hands, and while their brand of heartland rock may be steeped in the Great White North, it's appeal is universal".

Not a weak track.......2007-05-13

Had Fully Completely, Phantom Power, and Music@Work in mothballs for the last couple of years, and until listening to this, forgot how much I missed the Hip's sound. Think comfort rock with obscure lyrics. This is a stellar collection which spans their early more traditional sound and later experimental leanings. Perfect sequencing too.

All their best work!.......2007-03-09

Great compilation of the Hip's best stuff. Two CD's! You can listen for hours! Enjoy!!

Fantastic Addition To Any Music Collection.......2007-02-11

For the enthusiastic Hip listener, these discs won't let you down. Definitely all their hits and most all of their favored songs are included plus an array of dynamic tracks from their twenty+ years of public rockin'. Although perhaps an excess of songs maybe listed, any band lover would conclude that this affable compilation is sure to be something to cherish and respect all what this great Canadian band has to offer.

Do yerself a favor.......2006-08-30

I already owned every Hip album, but I got this CD as part of the box set with the DVDs. To my surprise, it's not the DVDs I enjoy most but this 2-disc CD set. They did a stellar job picking songs and organizing them to flow well from one to the next.
If you've never heard the Hip, you're missing out on a fantastic experience. These guys can rock as hard as anyone or hit you with a pop tune you can't get out of your head. The lyrics range from the brilliant to the bizarre, but that's part of the Hip's allure. They're NEVER boring. Who else would sing about sled dogs, hockey players, kicking someone out of a lifeboat, imprisoned virgins, and a stripper who stops in a coughing fit? "Close. But that's not why. I'm so hard done by."

Voices Full of Emotion.......2005-12-19

Once you hear this chorus...whether under the Red Army Choir or Soviet Army Choir banner...you will be addicted. I certainly am. This is not the best disc available on Amazon, but it is unique in that it showcases all Russian songs (since the chorus was a "national" choir, recordings done in London, Paris, etc. frequently contain songs from other countries). And while there may be better and more professional recordings, of this choir and more professional bands, these soldiers succeed in achieving a wide range of color with their vocal talent on this recording. A great bargain.

Sound quality.......2004-07-06

The songs that are chosen on this CD are excellent. The problem, the sound recording is not great. It is clear, but when the choir sings in a low tone, it is simply cannot be heard.

A Trip to Soviet Russia.......2004-03-18

In the 1970's, it seemed that defectors from the USSR made headlines in American newspapers every day. When a dancer defected, it was always believed that artistic freedom was the cause. When writers defected, it was due to the controversy surrounding their works. Athletes were usually viewed as wanting a taste of the good life, but when the Red Army Choir defected, it was a sweet victory for the west. These people were the symbol of all the USSR stood for and sang anthems praising the Soviets, yet they longed for freedom. We loved it when they defected.

Even though many of the songs performed by the ensemble praised the virtues of the Soviet Union, western audiences love the group. No it was not due to be soft on Communism. The group had a sound that was addictive and possessed terrific musical gifts, all of which can be found in this recording.

Listening to this recording is almost nostalgic now that the Soviet Union is no longer, but the recording has a certain appeal. It includes all the favorites including Meadowlands (Polyushku pole), Dark Eyes, Moscow Nights, and the Volga Boatman's Song, probably the best piece on the recording. The ensemble performs well together, the band give the music a distinct sound, and while the soloists are not perfect, the imperfections somehow seem appropriate.

There are more expensive recordings by this ensemble, but this budget CD is not just well worth the price, it is actually one of the best available.

Good Value.......2003-11-03

Considering the number of classic songs and the price, you really can't go wrong here. like another poster, i was a bit dissapointed by some very low music in some selections. but for the most part, the quality is quite good and the music is a very nice way to begin to understand and learn about the Russian people.

Good, but not perfect.......2003-01-19

This is a very good CD, and the music really captures the power and total authority of the Soviet state. It is very moving music on one hand, and also really reflects the situation of the Russian workingmen living under this tyranny. This CD would get 5 stars, but there are a few portions where the sound is so soft that it cannot be heard, such as at the beginning of the sixth track. This is the only problem with the CD worth noting, the CD is done by the Red Army choir, and the songs are virtually all made of of the huge band & choir, Soviet power music that we all have come to know and love. I do recommend this CD strongly.

Nice selections - dissappointing sound quality.......2007-05-12

This is one of the UK's top brass bands performing tastefully arranged hymn tunes. Featured in the movie "Brassed Off!" I expected great things from this CD. My main disappointment is the sound quality, or lack thereof. I have vintage cassette tapes which sound considerably better. The performances are mostly excellent, but I fear not enough to overcome the poor sound.

flawed master.......2005-06-30

Another exquisite collection from the Grimethorpe Colliery Band, but appears to have been cut from a flawed master. My first copy was a gift from a friend in the U.K., and the final track produced sharp crackley sounds like a deeply scratched vinyl disc, so I ordered another from Amazon plus a second one for a friend. Both have the same flawed final cut, but I've not returned them because it is so good that I'd rather have it flawed than not at all.

Church hymns in the Salvation Army Band style.......1999-02-12

Most of the songs on this album sound as if they were arranged from the song books found on the back of a church pew. Nothing too original - or that exciting about them.

If you need old timey church music... this is it.

Perfectly performed violin masterpieces.......2004-11-02

In these tiny masterpieces for piano and violin, young prize winning Chinese violinist Bin Huang is perfectly paired with her pianist. I cannot imagine a performance better than theirs. It is filled with both warmth and showmanship.
Since Amazon could not be kind enough I will list these "vaious" favorites
Vitalli chaconne
Tartini Devil's thrill
Corelli La Folia
Bach Air on the G string
Partita excerpts
Handel sonata d major
vivaldi sonata in a major

You could spend a ton trying to find these shorter works in collections by the composers.
Naxos gives you a wonderful performance and a cheap price. So buy buy buy

The best of the best from the '50s !!!.......2007-07-14

Jukebox Favourites: 76 Original Hits from the 50s gives you three CDs chock full of great love ballads and upbeat, energetic numbers that you will definitely enjoy! The CDs contain works by a wide range of artists with different types of songs about love.

You get so many hits, in fact, that I scarcely know where to begin. On the first CD, Dean Martin croons "Memories Are Made Of This" with a marvelous backup chorus. The musical arrangement makes good use of the guitar for this gently swaying melody. Frank Sinatra follows with the classic "Love And Marriage;" Frank sings this without a superfluous note. The arrangement by Nelson Riddle uses the horns and strings to carry the bulk of the melody. Great! Other hits on the first CD include "Sincerely" sung by The McGuire Sisters with Dick Jacobs and his Orchestra. Wow, how those McGuire Sisters harmonize so well! "Twenty Tiny Fingers" is a relentlessly upbeat melody performed very well by The Stargazers.

Eartha Kitt performs "Under The Bridges of Paris" with grace and panache; and Georgia Gibbs delivers "Tweedle Dee" with so much energy this number pops out at you as it flies straight out of the ballpark! Love that percussion on "Tweedle Dee," too.

The second CD continues to overwhelm me. Frank Sinatra sings "Young At Heart" to perfection; his voice is full of energy and masculine warmth. Nat "King" Cole performs "Smile" with grace and panache; Nat makes "Smile" his own as he enunciates certain syllables just a slightly different way to place his stamp on "Smile." Nelson Riddle's arrangement glows like gold, too! Kay Starr delivers a passionate rendition of "If You Love Me (Really Love Me);" and the background chorus enhances this number. Johnnie Ray also does a great job with "Hernando's Hideaway." "Hernando's Hideaway" sports a lush musical arrangement by Joe Reisman and his Orchestra. Awesome!

Dean Martin sings "Sway" with all his heart as the percussion infuses "Sway" with a 1950s Latin flavor; and Rosemary Clooney does a great job with "Mambo Italiano." Rosemary infuses "Mambo Italiano" with electricity--awesome! One of my personal favorites is "Mr. Sandman" by The Chordettes; they harmonize to perfection and the percussion works wonders for "Mr. Sandman." Moreover, Kitty Kallen performs a particularly beautiful classic, "Little Things Mean A Lot." "Little Things Mean A Lot" moves so many people with its honest lyrics; and Kitty sings this one with unfailing honesty and warmth.

The third CD only improves this three CD set. The CD begins strong with "That's Amoré" by Dean Martin and chorus; and "Side By Side" by Kay Starr with Hal Mooney and his Orchestra still delights people with its sweet innocence and promises of uncompromising loyalty. Kay Starr sings this to perfection--her voice light and clear as a bell! Eddie Fisher performs "Oh My Papa" without a flaw; and the chorus backs him up very well. Kay Starr returns to give us THE definitive rendition of "Changing Partners;" this ballad molds traditional country with a classic love ballad melody to create an especially delightful effect. Les Paul and Mary Ford perform "Vaya Con Dios" flawlessly; and Perez Prado gives us a great rendition of "Cherry Pink And Apple Blossom White" to end the three CD set with a romantic Latin twist.

The liner notes give you the song credits and the number of weeks each song was on the UK and the USA charts. I would have liked an essay but this is a minor disappointment.

As CD sets go, this is the best compilation of hits from the 1950s that I have found to date. You get a whopping 76 numbers that have been carefully remastered; very, very few numbers have any surface noise whatsoever. I highly recommend this for fans of 1950s music; and people who want to dance to the classics from the '50s will not be disappointed with this CD set.

Enjoy!
