It's no coincidence that Michael Bublé's new album starts with just his voice and some fingersnaps on "The Best Is Yet to Come," a song made famous by Frank Sinatra. The Canadian smoothie looks longingly towards early-'60s Vegas, an impression quickly reinforced when a boisterous horn section makes its grand entrance, about 20 seconds into the track. That Bublé means business is confirmed by the second cut, a fast-paced take on Henry Mancini's "It Had Better Be Tonight," and of course by the CD's very title, another song identified with Sinatra as his cockiest. There are just a few sidesteps from the retro formula that's served Bublé so well so far: a languid duet with Brazilian star Ivan Lins on the bossa "Wonderful Tonight," a gospel choir on "That's Life." Interestingly, Bublé co-wrote the best of those sidesteps, "Everything," a Norah Jones-esque number that alluringly harks back to sunny '70s pop. It's also the only song on the album produced by Bob Rock (best known for his work with Metallica), sending out a strong signal that Bublé should reach out to unlikely collaborators more often. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Album Description

Melding the contemporary and the classic in ways only he can, Michael Buble has created his most complete studio effort yet. Ranging from "I've Got The World On a String" to "Me and Mrs. Jones," in addition to two new songs co-written by Michael, Call Me Irresponsible makes this album irresistible.

OK CD, BUT NOWHERE NEAR AS GOOD AS "IT'S TIME"..........2007-08-02

... although it does have its moments, especially with "It Had Better Be Tonight" - that one's a grand slam home run that's guaranteed to be a live performance favourite when MB hits the road on tour.

On the flip side, his remake of "That's Life" is a clunker that could have been a smash with a punchier arrangement putting the emphasis on the horn section - the gospel-influenced approach was simply a badly-concocted idea (heck, even David Lee Roth, of all people, did a better version).

But I've noticed that about Michael Buble; his remakes are either fantastic or outright throw-aways. So far, "It's Time" represents the apex of his career.

Frank Bubbly.......2007-08-01

I kept hearing the name Michael Buble and finally checked him out. Heard "Always on my mind" on his MySpace page and was blown away. Loved his older hit "Home" too. Took a chance on this album when I saw it at Starbucks. Listened to it and....

Please don't try and be a new Frank Sinatra, just be yourself, Mike, you got the chops, as you clearly show on the sublime "Always on my mind". I never tire of listening to that track, but skip alll the others. My ears were bleeding listening to you butcher the Eric Clapton tune "Wonderful tonight".

The production is superb - big points for that: 1 star. 1 star for "Always on my mind".

I wish you would have recorded an entire album of new classic sounding tracks a la "Always on my mind". That would have been a 5 star album.

Wonderful.......2007-07-28

I love this CD. Michael Buble' has such a smooth voice. I can't get enough. It's easy listening, good for dancing, romantic. and I cannot say enough about the music.

Does he have a speech impediment or is it just me?.......2007-07-27

Doesn't anyone notice he has a speech impediment? He slurs some words and has a very pronounced lisp at times. I'm not making fun of the handicapped. If he was someone that I met on the street I wouldn't mention it, but he has chosen a profession that requires clear speech and should be held to higher standards. If he was my dentist, I would be good with it.

The songs where there are fewer instances of "s" or "th" etc. are fantastic, but songs like "World On A String" are reminiscent of William Hung. I really like "Me And Mrs. Jones", but I can still hear a slight lisp here and there. I don't think I remember hearing the slurring and lisping on previous recordings??? I agree with a previous reviewer that asked how the studio could put this CD out.

Buble is still on a roll.......2007-07-23

Michael Buble still fills the musical niche left by Sinatra's passing. The big band is top-notch and Michael, despite his youth, swings big time on these solid standards. Another good addition to your Buble collection.

It is not just the timbre of Norah Jones's voice that is mature beyond her 22 years. Her assured phrasing and precise time are more often found in older singers as well. She is instantly recognizable, blending shades of Billie Holiday and Nina Simone without sounding like anyone but herself. Any way you slice it, she is a singer to be reckoned with. Her readings of the Hank Williams classic "Cold Cold Heart" and Hoagy Carmichael's "The Nearness of You" alone are worth the price of the CD. Jones's own material, while not bad, pales a bit next to such masterpieces. They might have fared better had she and producer Arif Mardin opted for some livelier arrangements, taking better advantage of brilliant sidemen such as Bill Frisell, Kevin Breit, and Brian Blade; or if the tunes had simply been given less laconic performances. Jones has all the tools; what will come with experience and some careful listening to artists like J.J. Cale and Shirley Horn is the knack of remaining low-key without sounding sleepy--sometimes less is not, in fact, more. --Michael Ross

If you like piano and soft jazz ..........2007-08-07

I admit I bought this because 1) I needed something else to get free shipping on HP 7, and 2) I needed something I could listen to at work on my iPod that isn't by the Beatles. I already recieved Long Way Home as a gift a while back, and figured this would be more of the same relaxing stuff. But, once I popped the CD for a quick listen on the way home one day, the wonderful piano music and lyrics made this not only a relaxing listen, but one I keep coming back to almost every day. I love the title track, and admit I sing along full volume in my car on the way home from work. Okay, and push repeat several times as well. After a while, a few of the songs wear on you (Lonestar and Painter being the two I now routinely skip due to the less-than-stellar lyrics), but most are jazzy, meaningful, and well worth the purchase.

one of the best CDs I own.......2007-07-25

Other reviewers have gone into a lot of depth about this CD already, so I'll keep my endorsement short and to the point. The CD is fantastic and is one of the best that I own. You will never get tired of listening to this one.

The phenom Ms Jones.......2007-06-27

This is such an outstanding production, so much better than the later(I think) CD. Miss Jones should be careful which guitar players back her up. She should stick to Bill Frizell or maybe she should try Mark Knoffler, if she can get him away from Emmy Lou.

Album Description

Sean Kingston, a 17 year old native of Jamaica is not just a new face in popular music, he's accomplished the rare task of creating a new genre where rap, reggae, dancehall, pop, a touch of doo-wop and remarkable songwriting all combined into something totally fresh. Add in Sean's family roots which cite reggae king Buju Banton as his uncle and Jamaican legendary producer Jack Ruby as his grandfather and you have one of the most exciting debuts this year.

Customer Reviews:

Ho Hum........2007-08-08

While the singer does have a few catchy songs, his lack of talent is apparent in the 'canned' songs used to enhance his voice.

His faux Jamacian accent is really strained... it made me think he had a speech impediment until I found that he was trying, really hard, to sound Jamacian. Unfortunately, he fails.

Not that it takes much musical talent to be a pop star now-a-days, but hearing the main song from this album, I had expected more from the rest of the album. I'm left a disappointed listener... but not too disappointed since I listened to it on Real Rhapsody (music subscription service), so I'm not out $15.00!

Get it now!.......2007-08-06

Finally a CD worth every penny! More than half of the tracks on this album are ready to released as singles...this album is great to have at your summer party!!

Rip off.......2007-08-06

You know, when I first heard the "Beautiful Girls" song, I thought it was catchy... cool song. Then I saw Kingston on the Today show and I thought "cool, maybe this kid will be then next Prince Buster." Kid had a band, a double bass, and all the players were to the nines...

Man, was I wrong. I've listened to most of this album. I know a lot of people have pointed out that "Beautiful Girls" is a rip from "Stand by Me", and they're right... but the song's good enough that I can overlook that. The rest of the album though... Rip off...

REFRESHING!.......2007-08-02

What can I say about this record? Let's face it R&B/Hip-hop has been really stale this year. I'm impressed to see such a young artist using innovative sounds/lyrics. Why are so many R&B/Hip-hop artist afraid to draw from other influences in different genres of music? I listen to all genres of music so I can appreciate this record.

I think people who have rated this album poorly have "limited" taste in music...meaning they don't mind hearing the same beats/lyrics over and over from artist to artist. Or they propably haven't really listened to this record.

If you enjoy Sean Paul, Michael Jackson, Kanye West buy this record. Yes, it's that good.

Suicidal, Suicidal, Suici...........2007-08-02

Sean Kingston seemed to come out of nowhere with "Beautiful Girls" this summer. The song gained well through the charts landing him a very good, summer, breezy-reggae hit, with one very unexpected ending. And now he delievers with his new self-titled debut. With Kingston's debut, you get the obvious flowchart of an R&B newcomer. A few party songs ("Kingston", "Got No Shorty", "Drummer Boy"), a few heartfelt ballads ("Me Love", "Dry Your Eyes") and the obligatory "song of the summer" "Beautiful Girls", most notable for Kingston killing himself by the end of the song. Tied in for good measure is the song featuring whatever young R&B girl that's hot at that current, and then you find "There's Nothing" with Paula DeAnda. And to match his hot, hit single that samples Ben E. King's "Stand By Me", he and Rotem then sample Phil Collins's "In The Air Tonight" on "I Can Feel It" with mixed results. Anything new or exciting going on here? No, but there's nothing bad going on here either. Originality isn't quite Kingston's gem, although bringing breezy, summery, Jamacain styled music, that would indeed be Kingston's gem quality. His voice isn't the rangiest, but his perplexed, unpredictable flow is what makes it the most interesting. Add in producer Jonathan Rotem and the aforementioned list of love songs, party songs, and some hood tracks, and you get one set of enjoyable reggae/hip-hop jams that define the summer. Some may question the aggression of the disc (he's barely 17), and Kingston might not be too out of the box. But he's not the dull pencil in the box either. 3.5 stars.

Thanks to a fortuitous intersection of talent and fate, 22-year-old Josh Groban hasn't finished his senior year in performing arts school but has already released his sophomore effort on a major major label. Fans of the young vocal phenom's debut will find much to enthrall them here, even if it nudges the singer closer to the center of producer/mentor David Foster's MOR pop sensibilities. Eschewing much of its predecessor's more overt classic-lite pretensions and pop-rock covers for a slate of dramatic, Eurocentric ballads that serve as a showcase for the singer's inviting baritone, Groban shrewdly positions himself as the American alternative to the Bocelli-Watson crossover axis. "Caruso" may find the singer falling short of its operatic inspiration, but "Oceano" and "My Confession" quickly showcase his true dramatic range (which seems to all but yearn for a bona fide Broadway musical challenge), while a vocal take of Bacalov's graceful "Il Postino" theme uses classical virtuoso Joshua Bell's violin flourishes to good effect. To his credit, Groban displays some promising efforts at songwriting collaboration on the bittersweet "Per Te" and "Remember When It Rains," while the ambient/ethnic soundscape of Deep Forest's "Never Let Go" offers a teasing alternative to the record's otherwise melodramatic production formula. Groban has found commercial triumph via Foster's mentoring, but there remains a nagging sense here that he hasn't truly pushed himself as an artist--yet. --Jerry McCulley

A Heavenly Voice.......2007-07-31

I had never heard of Josh Groban until one night I was looking at the
PBS series, "Distant Shores" with Peter Davison and this backgroun music came up. I had to search for the voice and the composer. It took me awhile to find Josh Groban. I am very old(veery!), studied music for years and he has one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard.
From such a young man it seems unbelievable. He reminds me of beautiful voices of yesteryear- a pleasure to remember.

Album Description

Four years since his last studio album, and following up on his highest charting radio single ever ("Personal Jesus", from Lest We Forget), Marilyn Manson returns with "Eat Me, Drink me". Art openings, soundtrack appearances, and personal circumstance have grabbed headlines for Manson in recent months, setting the stage for the release of Eat Me, Drink Me, which is unquestionably the artist's most personal statement yet. Always the provocateur, in what may be the ultimate subversion of the code of aggro-rock, the songs are immediately catchy - all jagged guitar hooks, anthemic choruses, with an overlying glam-rock sheen. Lyrically Manson has never been more riveting, seemingly having enough to draw from in his own life and from society at large to present a fresh, snarling vision.

Customer Reviews:

Manson, you have broken my heart.......2007-08-08

I never thought the day would come that I give a Manson album a one star review but I would be far too generous to give it any more. Like many here, I have been a fan for almost a decade, and have had a massive interest in the artist, the band and everything they had to offer until recently. I was disappointed in `Golden Age', I thought it lacked the layers of there previous work. But nonetheless looked forward to future realease.
Listening to `Antichrist Superstar' you believe there is a presence living in the music underneath the beauty and disgust. The imagery, the lyrics, the originality. Genius. I am not apposed to Manson slowing there music down, I love Mechanical Animals, and the ballads they have to offer as they are incredibly unique. How far is "Just a car crash away" from Cryptorchid, Man that you Fear or Speed of Pain?
The music on this album abides by overused and overly accessable structure, the guitar work is standard and the melodies and production is horrendously commercial. The lead single put me off buying the album until now, I thought it sounded like a Bloc Party song, and it seemed since Manson has run out of stuff to say, he was jumping on the Brit-rock bandwagon, and it's a genre I absolutely despise. `If I was your Vampire' has a hint of potential, and is a great option for track one, but misleads you into thinking there is anything of interest about to come. "you me and the Devil" seemingly attempts to revisit Manson's `Portrait' Roots, but falls short due to the over production and commercialisation.

Manson always played the villain so well, as he secretly acted like the victim. However After Firing Pogo and bullying him until he quit(and withholding him of his financial dues), firing Twiggy (who now, its clear was the brains behind the band), John 5 (bullying him until he quit also), and Ginger fish over the past few years, Brian Warner has shown himself to be nothing more than a corporation type `music group'. Tim Skold is the worst addition to the group ever, I dislike everything about him. Manson was my favourite band of all time, and Antichrist was my favourite album, but having become such a fame-seeking, shallow, obnoxious and `run-of-the-mill' artist, I have no connection to anything that he has to say from now on, and unfortunately but by default, cannot even listen to there early stuff now as I don't believe Manson believes a single thing he ever said. Thanks Manson for being there for me as a teenager, but it's a shame that the whole thing was a cleverly thought out act. Shame though, It was great while it lasted.

The Album's Musical Theme.......2007-08-06

I've been thinking this over for a while now. I won't bore you with the obvious: Manson changes his musical style every...yaddah, yaddah, yaddah. So what is the aesthetic theme behind this record?

After successive listens, it dawned on me that this album reads like a Psychedelic bluesy vampiric Spaghetti Western meets Alice in Wonderland filled with large flickering neon signs (probably of crucifixes above churches) littering the landscape. I get the sense he now fancies himself as a psychedelic Glam Rock outlaw cowboy roaming the dusty, desolate badlands of Hollywood, wrangling for himself (and subsequently breaking the hearts of) some dainty and not-so-dainty missus and ma'am's and harlots and young naive teenage actresses (which he is doing).

It certainly seems the case with songs like "Putting Holes in Happiness" and "Are you the Rabbit?". Even "They Said Hell's Not Hot" sounds like, dare I say it, 80's era Bon Jovi (Slippery When Wet?). There's also a very movie atmosphere running throughout this work and it wouldn't surprise me if the recent events of his life catalogued by this album began somewhere around the time he made a cameo in the vamp flick "Rise".

Anyway, these are just my $0.02 which I hope would aid in figuring out how to approach and define this album.

Manson must be tired.......2007-08-03

this collection seems slower and darker than usual. After listening, I wondered if Manson was depressed over the recent breakup with his wife, and it was affecting his music's mood.

brilliant.......2007-08-02

i love every song on here. the guitar work is amazing. its lyrically brutal and the man just knows how to write killer songs

Not the Best, Not the Worst.......2007-08-02

I was a little disappointed by this CD. After all the hype from Manson himself proclaiming this was the great gothic vampire album and all, that's what I expected it to be. But it's not terribly gothic (most of his work isn't), and other than "If I Was Your Vampire" it isn't overly vampiric. Manson comes off sounding either bitter or commonly sleazy most of the time. In an untypical Manson move, he's said openly that "Mutilation Is the Most Sincere Form of Flattery" is aimed at My Chemical Romance, which helps make this feel like a personal "F*** You" album.

On "Are You the Rabbit" and "Eat Me, Drink Me," Manson breaks away somewhat from the air of griping and enters a more exploratory style; it's too bad we don't get to see him continue that exploration through the rest of the album. But even the bad songs stay in your head, especially the loose-stitched "Heart-Shaped Glasses." At least this CD proves that Manson hasn't fallen prey to stagnation; he's still very much in the process of evolving.

This fourth effort from the soft-rock-masquerading-as-country band Rascal Flatts moved more than 721,000 copies its first week out, which let the female-friendly trio rub elbows with some mighty heady company. Only four other country artists (Garth Brooks, Shania Twain, the Dixie Chicks, and Tim McGraw) have rolled out numbers like that, and only 24 other acts total (including Eminem, 50 Cent, U2, and Coldplay). So what's the hook, besides Gary LeVox's wounded tenor and Joe Don Rooney's boy-band face? Clearly, it's the songs. Or it usually is. On Me and My Gang, "What Hurts the Most" is the one that'll end up on a tape loop in your head, though "Yes, I Do" memorably frames romantic yearning and regret with ersatz reggae rhythms, and the sexy "Cool Thing" does a slow burn. The problem? New producer Dann ("King of Excess") Huff bloats too many tunes with screaming, by-the-book guitars and general bombast. And despite his über success with Faith Hill and Keith Urban, Huff has never really understood what makes country, well... country. Instead, he insultingly works in a snippet of steel guitar and a couple of family lyrics--e.g., the melodramatic "Ellsworth" is meant to pull the heartstrings of anyone who's seen the cruelty of Alzheimer's--and thinks he's thrown Nashville a bone. Worse, "Backwards" boringly reworks that hoary ol' country joke "What do you get when you play a country song backwards?," the title song is a Big & Rich ripoff, and even God gets dragged in for a half-baked attempt at middle-America resonance ("He Ain't the Leavin' Kind"). C'mon now. Call these boys pop and be done with the pandering. Joe Don's famously photographed derrière got a fairer crack than this. --Alanna Nash

Simply awesome.......2007-07-09

Thsi album is absolutely great, all of the songs are just so full of emotions and the voice of LeVox just makes it even better, all of the album is a masterpiece though the songs that outstand the most are "What Hurts the Most", "Pieces" (My personal favorite, I just love this song I think I've played it over 400 times in my itunes library already), "My Wish", "Ellsworth" (Nice story the song describes) and "Stand", if you like music with great tunes and lyrics and specially with MEANING, then this is the album for you, by the way this one contains "Life is A Highway" as a fourteenth track unlike the previous April 4rth release.

SIMPLY AWESOME!!.......2007-06-28

I'm not even a country fan but I fell in love with the song "What hurts the Most" and since I bought their last CD because I fell in love with "Bless the Broken Road, I decided to buy Me and My Gang.

I must say I was impressed with the whole CD. Each song is wonderful. There are ballads, and up tempo tunes. My Wish, To Make Her Love Me, Yes I do and Pieces have turned out to be my favorites.

I recommend the entire CD!!!

Not a big Rascal Flatts Fan.......2007-06-27

I bought this CD because my son wanted the song, 'Life is a highway'... There are only 2 other songs that we really like to listen to .. maybe it will grow on us :)

Finger Eleven's career shifted suddenly and significantly when their 2003 emo-hit "One Thing" turned the band's career on its axis. At that point, they went from being known as 'the boys from Burlington who used to call themselves the Rainbow Butt Monkeys' to a group whose anthemic slow rock song went Platinum in Canada and Gold in America. So how does a band respond after its widespread fame is the result of just one song? In the case of Them Vs. You Vs. Me, Finger Eleven have consciously stayed away from anything remotely resembling their past and put the focus on the straight-ahead alt-rock formula that they've consistently excelled at. There are certain old-school rock influences that bleed clearly through their music, from Rush-isms in the form of frenetic time changes ("Sense of a Spark") to "Talking to the Walls" and "Lost My Way" which evoke Peter Gabriel-era Genesis. Frontman Scott Anderson's voice is impressive throughout, but when he sings ballads, especially "Window Song" and "Easy Life," something enables him to appeal to a whole different audience than traditional alt-rock fans. There is no 'one thing' on this disc that will allow them to reach the heights of their self-titled CD, just a consistency that will provide longtime fans reason to appreciate the band even more. --Denise Sheppard

Copy Protected - Avoid.......2007-08-08

I bought this album expecting to use it the way I use hundreds of others I own - on my computer while I work. This album is copy protected and won't play in the computer's DVD player. I assume they don't want people to rip the songs or make mp3s, but I consider that a legal use of the material when paid for.

I am returning this album and will never own another album by either Finger Eleven or Sony. If I need any songs from them I'll record them from the radio.

Better Than Expected!.......2007-07-13

After seeing lukewarm reviews, I went into this with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised! The songs were not all "One Thing" imitations, but rather the band has gone in a different directly with their music. Two of the songs even have a slight 'twang' to them, and while I despise country music, the 'twang' works well on this CD.
Ironically, Amazon has paired this with Chevelle's latest, and those two CD's are currently my top two.

notice how everyone who says this is my first time hearing F11 i love it and they give it 5 stars? yea..cuz its a good album..all you 1 star guys own greyest of blue skies and your wanting a repeat...well f11 dosent do that... thats like watching and loving super troupers then renting their 1st release called puddle cruisers and hating it because you wanted another super troupers out of it....but would you have liked the movie if youd never seen super troupers?..most likely....NEVER judge someone on their other works. and you won't ruin the music for yourself.... if them vs you vs me was released my ohh say...some band called cheetah lol and you heard paralyzer...youd prob like the album...

What a great new concept album!.......2007-07-08

I'm a new fan and picked this one up the day it came out because of Paralyzer. I listened for a couple weeks and liked it a lot, then I put it away so I didn't get burned out on it.

I listened again today driving from Philly to DC and really paid attention. Aside from the myriad classic rock influences that can be heard and the solid musicianship, this disc is quite the concept album. Best one I've heard in a long time and I'm very, very rarely impressed by new musical offerings. I understand that this may not be the same sound as their previous offerings but I really don't care. This is good music.

5 stars!

No more paralyzers?.......2007-07-08

I love Paralyzer.. it has a harder sound to it which I was hoping to hear on the rest of the album. Unfortunately, I only liked the first track and found the rest to be a bit of a disappointment. Seems like "Paralyzer" should have been done by Disturbed. The only reason I gave the album a 2 was because it has one song I can't get enough of. Otherwise, it's a zero. Generic and poor lyrics = radio friendly. Not what I'm looking for.

The End of the Big Voice?.......2007-04-16

This CD, which is truly fine overall, reminds me of Marilyn Horne's lament that we have probably seen the end of the big voice and it makes me sad. I agree with the reviewer who refers to "microphonies". And more justice could be done to Bjorling's voice with a better transfer. But at some point, music becomes a matter of taste and I prefers singers who have the instrument and the support and the training, whether formal or not, to just let fly and take a chance on making a mistake. Domingo can be wonderful and so can his musicianship but he tends to be so stiff. I have to wonder at the virulence and asperity with which some people go after Pavarotti. It's true that late in his career he made some questionable recordings but the answer to that is simple: don't buy them. At his best, he belongs for all time in the top echelon of tenors. I love this CD and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys great (big) voices.

Fla Gator Lady.......2007-01-12

Highly recommend this CD with these beloved arias of the greatest tenors in opera. I have owned this CD for a couple of years and purchased another for a friend who always requests that I play it ... perfect for listening in the car, dinner, bridge games, relaxation ... just so perfect. You won't be disappointed in this one.

20 Great Tenor Arias.......2007-01-09

A great disc,combination of the greatest tenors of the 20th century and some of the most beautiful music ever written in any century,a must addition to any opera lovers collection.

Plesantly surprised..........2006-01-14

I don't remember how I found this CD the other day surfing through the "Amazon" such as it is, but I did. I listened to a few clips provided & on the strength of that, I purchased this CD.

First it is a great buy. A booklet with pictures of each tenor, a small bio, the year recorded and TRANSLATIONS of each aria are provided. This is really nice. It seems more & more that translations are being left out. Being a former opera singer, I may know most of the words, but sometimes it's just nice to read along (sometimes it's just nice to listen too).

Being on the Decca label, there is admittedly quite a few Pavarotti selections. Out of 20 selections, he has 6 of them. But I love Pavarotti, so this is no problem for me. These are all early recordings & his voice is magnificent! Being a singer, I still marvel at his ability to sing "All'armi!" on a high D and still say the 2nd syllable "mi" on such a note! WOW. There is also of course his very sweet, impassioned and lyrical turn as Rodolfo in "La Boheme" as well as the lesser known (although I still have it on casette) "La Favorita" which has a particularly high tessitura.

Also featured are a young Plácido Domingo singing a VERY nice "Flower song/ La fleur que tu m'avais jetée" from Carmen. He usually sounds too pushed for me on the top notes (as one might expect from a Pavarotti fan, I like free top notes) but in this recording he is pretty darn fabulous. He also sings an aria from "Tales of Hoffman/Les Contes d'Hoffman" and I have always felt that he, like Neil Schicoff, were well suited to this role.

Lamentably there are only one selection each from Carreras, Correlli, Monaco, Aragall & Kollo. Especial kudos to the young recording they feature for Aragall. He had a very free and nice high tenor well suited to Verdi. Of course as his career went forward with the natural darkening of his voice and the "heavier" roles, he did start to develop a wobble. But this recording is before that. His top, his phrasing are all beautifully done in his featured aria from "La Traviata."
Mario del Monaco's "E lucevan le stelle" is hauntingly beautiful and has such a wonderful pianissimo in it that it makes you just want to gasp for beauty's sake. I now know every tenor I've heard sing this aria was trying to emulate what he did.

This is a great CD because it does bring together on one CD some of the greatest singers of the 20th/21st century. Bergonzi, di Stefano, Björling, in addition to the previously mentioned artists is quite an impressive collection. I'm sure there's only one of each for Carreras, Aragall (I believe they are formerly EMI/Angel artists) and perhaps some of the others because they are "imported" from another label. There's so much Pavarotti on this CD because he IS a Decca artist.

A highly recommended CD, affordable, not the usually obscure and unpolished artists that are sometimes found on compilations. Plus acutal linear notes and translations. Nicely done, Decca!!!

Absolutely Agree About Corelli.......2005-05-27

Franco Corelli's "Nessun Dorma" is still the best of them all - clear, passionate, and exciting. (And those final two notes...! Gives me chills just to think of it.) I was fortunate enough to see him live in both "Turandot" and "Romeo and Juliet" a year before his retirement, and he was still a Calaf and a Romeo to die for... as, of course, Liu and Juliet did! As it is, I tend to buy compilations depending on how much Corelli they include - though Bjorling is a strong second, and I have happy memories of Domingo. Long live the Golden Age of Operatic Tenors!

Jimmy Buffett may have made his millions, but that doesn't mean that he has eased up on his workload. After releasing 33 albums, mounting grueling annual tours, and fashioning an entire industry and lifestyle out of his signature song "Margaritaville," Buffett trots out this two-CD collection. Yet, Meet Me in Magaritaville, which spans 30 years, isn't merely a retread of his long, storied career. Buffett has written two new songs for the package and re-recorded six alternative versions of fan favorites (including a moving version of "The Captain and the Kid," which he included for his ailing father, who died shortly after the album's release). He's also added two new cover songs--a spicy bossa nova version of Fred Neil's "Everybody's Talking" and the Beach Boys' "Sail on Sailor"--as well four live tracks, which shows the singer at his best, conjuring up his own Yuppie Atlantis, an idyllic place where no one has to wear shoes, the sun is always shining, the bar never closes, and Junior Mints are always available at every cinema. A must-have collection for every Parrothead (or aspiring Parrothead), if only for Buffett's track-by-track descriptions. --Jaan Uhelszki

If you are even mildly enamored with Jimmie Buffet and his music, this is a must have. All of his hits and some live performances are on this 2 CD set.

typical island music.......2007-06-27

After visiting south Florida and the Keys on several occasions. I heard some of his music whilst there. Bought the cd hoping that it would take me back there whilst being in rainy cold england. It does! Job done. It takes you to sandy beaches, blue skys and laid back bars. Some tracks are a bit cheesy but typical of the sort of music you hear down there.Turn your heating up, grab a beer, close your eyes, put this album on and your almost there.Almost!!

Bought this cd for my brother-in-law for Christmas, and he says it is wonderful. All the songs from over the years, he just loves it.

It's Jimmy Buffett, what else could you ask for?.......2007-03-19

This album is a collection of some of the best stuff Jimmy Buffett has recorded. It's a blend of old and new. Many of the songs are like old friends that you always like to spend time with and although some of the songs are newer, they fit right in with your circle of friends.
I highly recommend this album to anyone who enjoys slipping away to Margaritaville for a little while. It's music that crosses the generation gap. I'm in my 40's, my parents are in their mid - 60's and my daughter is a teenager, and we all enjoy Jimmy Buffett. If you purchase this album, you won't be disappointed.

There are worse things in life than making your acting debut on the much ballyhooed season finale of Ally McBeal, though teen operatic baritone Josh Groban doesn't seem destined to encounter them anytime soon. As the awkward high school student-client who asks the typically romance-jinxed Ally to his senior prom, Groban performed this debut album's "You're Still You" (adapted from film-composing legend Ennio Morricone's Academy Award-nominated score for Malèna, with lyrics by Linda Thompson) as a heart-tugging, literal showstopper. The young phenom was just 17 when veteran producer-writer David Foster tapped him to fill in for Andrea Bocelli at rehearsals for the 1999 Grammys, where Groban found himself suddenly dueting with Celine Dion.

Indeed, such were his fortunes that the young Foster protégé was forced to drop out of Carnegie Mellon when professional commitments--including this record--interfered. And if this collection tends to hew sometimes uncomfortably close to Foster's own MOR sonic instincts, the material offers enough challenges to display Groban's talent and the potential of his warm, mature voice: a lyrical take on another Morricone classic, "Cinema Paradiso"; melancholy readings of Don McLean's "Starry, Starry Night" and Albert Hammond's "Alejate"; masterfully dramatic takes of the Neapolitan "Alla Luca Del Sole" and "Canto Alla Vita," the latter featuring the Corrs. Many of Groban's performances here, including a neo prog-rock-opera take on Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" (with Lili Haydn), seem both bigger and bolder than their precious musical frameworks, a telling hint that Grand Opera can't be far from his grasp. As said earlier, there are worse things in life. --Jerry McCulley

First saw and heard Josh on the Tv and was blown away by his talent! it was about a year later that I found out who he was and bought the first album and can honestly say that I have never tired of his work. Every song is magical and he is truely wonderful. Have since purchased all his work and have also had the priviledge of seeing him live in concert in Glasgow/Scotland and was amazed. such a talented young man with a truely magical voice
