Ikes Finest.......2004-01-18

I guess in 1971 Ike felt there was a lack of his material out there. This year alone he had released 'To Be Continued' and the major hit soundtrack 'Shaft'... So what better time to release a double-album?!

Not that anyone should complain. 'Black Moses' is Ike's shining moment. 14 cuts of hot buttered soul mixed with some hefty spoonfuls of that Memphis flavour and dreamy orchestration. Hip hop, R&B and dance artists have looted arrangements from this album endlessly over the decades and its not hard to understand why. From start to finish Ike is inspired in a major way and the dark grooves and tones of the melodies never let up. Genius!

The two featured numbers 'Never Can Say Goodbye' and 'Never Gonna Give Ya Up' are awesome, 'Good Love' is downright fonky, whilst 'Your Love Is So Doggone Good' nearly steals the show with a downright eerie harmony. Its difficult to pick out favourites from a perfect album, a Must Have if you want my advice.

Deeply-rooted gutter soul from the muhfuggin' MAN himself!.......2003-10-01

What y'all know 'bout Brother Ike? If you know nothin' an' are readin' this on one'a dem "curiosity kicks" then I needa shed some light on 'ya. I ain't gon' make this a long-winded review that seems 'ta go nowhere, an' I ain't gon' break this down song by song or nothin' like that. I'm jus' gon' tell you that 'Black Moses' is one'a the greatest epic pieces'a music you will find. His sangin'a these beautiful songs, an' his urban blunted grease-fire backing instrumentations; 'specially that Fender Rhodes piano are like some great message bein' sent down from the heavens.

I love it all, straight-up; from the first note'a disc one to the final fade-out of disc two, is' all so immeasurable. I love the dour, simple street-corner soul melody on 'Nothing Takes the Place of You' more than anything; there's so much power in his voice alone when he sangs a note, when he brings it up to a soulful cry, or lowers it down to a subtle croon; man, I love this song. I also love the brazen slowed down funk on the Curtis-penned 'Man's Temptation' an' the kickin' gutter-blues of 'Part-Time Love'. I'm damned enthralled by 'Ike's Rap II/Help Me Love'; God forbid I take a bottle to the dome befo' I listen to it an' all the memories of what once were come floodin' back to me. The horns an' arrangements an' passion that fills the once again-Superfly-penned'Need to Belong to Someone' is pure BRILLIANCE. But the straight-up baddest funkiest, groovin'-est JAM on the whole double-disc set has gotta be 'Good Love'; I listen to that song every single day I go out an' see the sun shinin'. Nothin' makes me feel better.

Well, lemme stop before I do exactly what I had said I WASN'T going to an' break 'em all down one by one. You can play this album straight through anytime; it works at a get-together wit' your boys, when you jus' wanna play cards, drank a few beers an' smoke some cigars like you some gangstas or sumpin'; but it works jus' as well for a night spent tryin' to get sumpin' started with a woman; candlelight, wine, makin' out, whateva else y'all is old enough to do. Is' jus' got sumpin' for everything. Straight-up this is one'a the BADDEST soul albums EVER! Let Bruh Ike, the soul messiah, the strongest, blackest Moses on the planet show you the way to happiness.

Another Gifted Genius.......2003-07-07

This Issac Hayes set seems to flow flawlessly between songs. Although, in my opinion, not one of his better releases, he still stays true with the funk. His covers of "Never Can Say Goodbye", "(They Long To Be) Close to You", and "Going in Circles" are excellent productions, giving them a much more sophisticated sound. I would add this CD to your collection.

Master of the epic soul interpretation.......2003-05-19

On "Black Moses", Isaac Hayes is at the height of his musical powers. He takes some classic song material and makes it his own, exploding the compositions, laying them out with confident care, and delivering to you the sort of soul that takes its time to good effect. Along with amazing re-intetrpretations, this album also features "Ike's Rap II", which was sampled on Portishead's track, "Glory Box". This isn't the only Isaac Hayes album you should own, but it's one of them... if you count yourself as a soul fan.

never gonna givew you up.......2003-01-10

I love this collection this proves Isaac is one of the best soul singers of our time and it's a shame he's best known for shaft cause this man put it down and made his mark several times after shaft this is a very good double cd and every song is worth playing numerous times.

The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra needs a guitar player!.......2006-11-09

Granted, they only need it for one composition (the last one, "The James Bond Theme") but still, without the guitar it's just not the same. Barry didn't compose this one so I suppose it was a bonus and I shouldn't complain, really. The rest of the music on all the CDs is fantastic. Some of the stuff I had heard before without realizing who had composed it. Very enjoyable, to say the least.

Persuaders Theme!.......2006-03-02

Buy it for the Persuaders theme, probably the best TV theme song ever written.

A Variety Of Classics!.......2005-12-06

John Barry has been composing film scores for over forty years and this is only scratching the surface of his productions. Never mind that the entire set is recorded by the Prague Philharmonic; it's pure to Barry's themes. While John Williams compositions ("Star Wars", etc.) are wild and flamboyant and Jerry Goldsmith's (Hoosier's, etc.) are mood pieces, John Barry crosses over all barriers and is amazingly diverse. Barry has recorded most of the exciting James Bond themes, melodramatic classics like "The Lion In Winter' and moody theme hits like "Midnight Cowboy". He also tugs at the heartstrings with compositions from, "Somewhere In Time", "Frances" and "Out Of Africa". He varies his themes for all types of films and few composers capture it so well.

There is over four hours of music in this set with a colorful and informative booklet.

Incredible Barry Collection.......2004-03-11

Any fan of movies will absolutley love this collection. Being a movie buff I couldn't wait to get this boxed set. Knowing Barry from all the James Bond movies, I did not realize his involvement with so many others. The orchestra is magnificent in all these themes. I'm listening to "High Road to China" right now and I'm drifting in the clouds in a Tiger Moth with Tom Selleck and Bess Armstrong. If you are familiar with a movie it will definitely have you seeing it again, if not the scores are still beautiful. Any fan of classical music will be pleased as well. Travellers will defintitely enjoy it for a long drive. I know from when I use to travel that music like this made the miles float by faster. I highly recommend these four CDs even if you just know a handful of the songs.

" one of cinema's greatest composers...John Barry".......2001-07-06

This collection of four compact discs...are worth their weight in GOLD! Barry creates visual moods for each film he scores...romantic, sentimental, action, adventure, suspense and mystery...the list could go on. Strings, brass and lush-velvet arrangements overlay each cue in his distinctive style of legendary scoring...we have ~ "John Barry:The Collection", Silva Screen's release traces 40 years of film music, featuring "The City Of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra" ~ conducted by Mr. Nic Raine (outstanding)..."Crouch End Festival Chorus" ~ David Temple, Choir Master...perform 56 selections, over four hours of symphonic suites with a full orchestra sound...all individually wrapped-up into one neat package...just the way "film-score-buffs" like 'em!

Must ask the following to take a bow ~ James Fitzpatrick (compilation producer), always in their pitching, Reynold da Silva (executive producer), Nic Raine (conductor, arranger, orchestrator & associate producer), a tremen!dous asset to every project he undertakes...and the man who made it all possible...a legendary icon always leading the way in film scoring ~ JOHN BARRY!

Customer Reviews:

IN 2005, THIS IS WHAT WE NEED!!!.......2005-11-19

In the early 90's,we all know Thee Hyponotics were drinking from the same Detroit well as Mudhoney, the Fluid, Laughing Hayenas et. al. However, Thee Hypnotics were somehow different. They were arrogant, appeared distant yet cool and had the adoration of Thurston Moore, Ian Astbury, Chris Robinson and The Lords of the New Church. As you can see all of the hip, rock personalities took notice. I remember seeing them in New York and they smoked during their set. Absolutely killer! Recently, I read on the net that they played a show in Cambridge, MA back then and had the cajones to open the show with a ferocious version of "Sweet Emotion". How's that for making a statement! Sadly, however, after three albums not much happened other than fading into that distant yet foreign space in time where you know a band / artist will be influential OR ahead of their time. Turn the clock ahead, and you see so many bands copping that Motor City Garage sound (i.e. White Stripes, Von Bondies, the Estrus crowd) and you can see that maybe Thee Hypnotics were not given their due respects. Looking ahead, I can tell you one thing that is a certainty as well as must for any lover of music that is raw, passionate and rock steady. That's the Black Moses. On their second album, Royal Stink, these guys deliver fierce, stinging songs that will make you want to shake your hips and groove to that forbidden beat. Songs like "Thru You" and the title track are so laced with real rock n roll it reaffirms the belief that music can be so heavy yet uplifting. The album is perfect marriage of uncompromising rawness and skilled songwriting that embodies rock n roll history. Hence the name of the band, taken from the great Isaac Hayes album! But for anybody who loves music that is heartfelt, full of conviction and drive you have to get down with this. You won't regret it!

Excellent Album, 9/10.......2007-03-25

Holy Moses was one of the very few 80s metal bands to feature a female vocalist, and Sabina Classen really pulls it off. Their first two albums are excellent as well, but this is the one that really does it for me. The music is a little more experimental, whereas the first two were more straightforward thrash. I also prefer the vocals on this album to any of their albums made before or after this, she still sings with a distinctive growl, but with a little less of that "I just drank a cup of cancer" sound. I'm not really to adept at writing in-depth reviews, but take my word that this is a worthy purchase for anyone interested in older thrash.

Warning: not the real thing!!.......2005-04-20

I bought this cd a couple of months ago. The music is great, but... it's about half of the music of the double album! Songs like 'Going in circles' and 'A brand new me' are nowhere to be found. The complete album is available on a double cd. But this single cd has also one plus: the beautiful version of 'Never gonna give you up' is almost five minutes longer! So for the real fans: buy both cd's!

Classic Isaac Hayes.......2002-07-14

alot of People forget about His Career because nowadays He is involved with many different type of projects but though "Shaft" is His Trademark as a Artist He did alot of Other things that were equal to it&More.this Album is one of them.His Re-Make of the Jackson 5's "Never can Say Goodbye" has a Deep vibe.His Vocals&Arrangements are something else.the Guy is One Baddd Conducter of Music.very richly arranged Material here.
