Great Children's CD.......2007-07-12

I grew up listening to these songs on an old record that my parents had. We lost the record and I searched for these songs for my new little baby girl. I am so happy that I found it on Amazon and that my baby girl gets to grow up with the same classics that I did when I was a kid. The CD is wonderful and the price was even better.

Aww the good old times!.......2007-06-18

I grew up with this music!! My dad bought the records when I was little, YES records! Im 25yrs old so this was the late the 80's when he purchased it. Now I have the opportunity to introduce this to my children! I'm so glad they are continuing to sell this music because I loved it as a child. I still remember taking the records out and asking my parents to play it.

Walt Disney CD: Characters Do Not Sing.......2007-06-06

I'm a little disappointed. I purchased this CD thinking The Disney Characters would be singing the songs. My son was all excited when I showed him the CD and asked me to play it. When he heard it he said "this is not Mickey Mouse". He was very sad. The songs on this CD are sung by children. The CD is ok.

Garbage.......2007-05-13

Really very boring and campy - I can't bear to listen and wish I could return it. In fact all of the Disney Lullabuys and children's songs were downright horrible. Stick with Baby Einstein, Rock a Bye Baby and Just for Kids - Curious George is great too

Yeah!.......2007-03-04

Much better than all of those other randon baby CD's where all of the songs sound exactly the same and sound like they are sung by chipmunks!!

Customer Reviews:

great companion to pbs series.......2007-08-05

I love the civil war series on PBS. It really got me into history. It was a real landmark in my life, and listening to this cd brings all that back. For the CD itself, the beginning is stronger than the end, with the haunting Ashokan Farewell, the 'main' theme for the series coming up early along with the always recognizable Battle Hymn of the Republic and Dixie.

The other thing I loved is that I don't really listen to any other music that reminds me of my days in band in High School. There is a lot of band music here and it's a really great change of pace to modern music.

Civil War.......2007-07-16

Great soundtrack. Anyone who is interested in the civil war and its music will like this. Very soothing. Great violin.

Great Job.......2007-05-13

I can always count on Amazon to have products I can't find anywhere else.
I love it......
The Service with Amazon is excellent too.

Thanks for being there.

Very relaxing.......2007-03-31

This CD is nearly as relaxing as a Deepak Chopra CD. I am a voice in the chorus in that I originally bought it for use in a U.S. History class, but the Cd is great in its own right. Especially with tracks like Ashokan Farewell, and Battle Hymn of the Republic, this CD really is an amazing peace of work (although Ashokan Farewell isn't actually from the Civil War).

A great peice of Civil War history........2007-02-14

This CD is a good buy for any Civil War buff. Even though it was intended for use as a soundtrack I would recomend it. It has many of the time honored songs that we associate with the period and the sound quality is great. I bought this CD with the intention of useing it in a high-school U.S History class, but it as has good non-educational merit.

Amazon.com

A lonely Westerner in Nashville, Marty Robbins salved his soul by cutting an album (in one afternoon) of mostly self-composed cowboy ballads. One of them was a four-and-a-half-minute epic, "El Paso," that broke every rule of Top 40 programming to become a No. 1 pop and country hit in 1960. Robbins was arguably the most surefooted and accomplished singer in all country music, and that was never more obvious than on these Western ballads performed to often breathtaking perfection with a very small group and a vocal trio. Other titles include "Big Iron" (also a Top 30 hit), "Running Gun," and Western classics like "Cool Water," "Billy the Kid," and "The Strawberry Roan." Three extra tracks flesh out the 1999 release, including "Saddle Tramp" (the B-side of "Big Iron") and "The Hanging Tree" (title song from the 1959 Gary Cooper Western). --Colin Escott

Customer Reviews:

Classic Cowboy.......2007-05-27

Although Frank Sinatra is credited with creating the first "concept" album. Columbia might have one-upped Capital with this unique "Old West" collection. Although its been almost 50 years since this jewel was first recorded, it sounds like it was made yesterday. Marty Robbins has had many hit albums in the C/W top ten, but none of them has been as endearing as this 1959 classic. You get "El Paso, "Cool Water" "The Hanging Tree" and 12 more ballards sung by one of Country/Western all-time favorites. I can guarantee, you will continue to listen to these cowboy story songs for years to come.

Gunfighter Ballads by Marty Robbins is Cowboy Songs at their Best.......2007-03-20

The lable attached to the CD says "All Time Country Classic". It's misleading. This is an all time classic, period. I first bought this collection as an LP. The front said "High Fidelity", not "Stereo High Fidelity," but as a kid in 1959, I didn't care. "El Paso" was #1 on the pop charts. Marty Robbins had been a "cross-over" artist making the charts with "A White Sport Coat and a Pink Carnation," so I was primed when this album hit. Grammy-winning "Gunfighter Ballads..." set Marty Robbins apart. It isn't country, it isn't '50s pop, it might be Americana or folk music. It is cowboy or western music, I suppose. There are more reasons to own this album than "El Paso." "Cool Water," "The Master's Call." Utah Carol," "and "The Strawberry Roan" are all great songs interpreted by a great voice. "Gunfighter Ballads ..." is what it now says on the CD jacket, a "classic." Marty Robbins died in his early sixties, so many younger ears may not know him. They should, especially if they collect the good stuff from all eras.

Great CD.......2007-03-08

I grew up listeniing to Marty Robbins, and the Gunfighter Ballads is my favorite album and I just had to get this CD...because I use to listen to the music on LP, back in the 80's and I haven't heard the songs for over 15 years...with great imagination, listening to these songs would make it seem like you're watching a very interesting Western movie.

More than just "El Paso.".......2007-01-28

If you want to buy this CD just for "El Paso" you'll be plenty happy. If you allow yourself to listen to the remaining tracks, you'll be very happy. This was Marty's best effort, IMHO.

The remastering is done very well, although the source recording, being in 1959, does have its limitations. Overall, a very enjoyable CD, and well worth the work done to remaster and restore it!

Gunfighter Ballads & Trails Songs .......2007-01-18

I find the quality of the CD GUnfighter Ballads & Trail Songs to be fantastic. I never thought I would ever find this album in a CD form. This was one of my favorite albums I loved listening to when I was little. My dad loved this album as well and now that my dad passed away. Everytime I listen to this CD I think of my dad. Thanks Amazon for having it on hand for me to purchase it.

Album Description

They may have rationed meat, milk, canned goods, and gasoline, but there was no limit to the musical talent during World War II. Morale-boosting sounds on the home front and "over there" were one of the Allies' most potent weapons. WWII gave birth to many of the 1940s' most popular artists and songs, as well as many of the most important independent record labels. Songs That Got Us Through WWII is the first of a two-volume series collecting the hits that kept the home fires burning and brought a little bit of America to the G.I.s overseas. Compiled and developed by singer/songwriter/music historian Billy Vera, Vol. 1 features many of the era's biggest artists, including The Andrews Sisters, Frank Sinatra, Duke Ellington, The Mills Brothers, The Ink Spots, Harry James, and many more.

Customer Reviews:

A perfect collection from this time period!.......2007-08-03

This is a truly enjoyable, representative collection of songs heard during the second world war. Very reminiscent, and a real listening pleasure. The album includes a lovely ten-page booklet summarizing the meaning of and need for music during that time, including an overview of the performing groups/vocalists. Wonderful!

A hit with the WWII generation.......2007-07-15

We played this CD at a family reunion honoring our elders (who either fought in WWII or were married to those who fought). It was a hit. The tunes ranged from bouncy to sentimental, but all were enjoyable.

great compilation of 40's music........2007-03-18

i was born in 1961, but like the geeky audiophile that i am, i have eagerly dug into all the decades that have produced recorded music. i always thought that the forties were one of the weaker decades out there when it comes to sonic delights. so why do i love the two volumes of "songs that got us through wwii" so much? rhino records has a lot to do with it. as all audiophiles of the cd age now, rhino is one of the best outfits around when it comes to compilations of music. on these 2 wonderful discs from the forties, they have done it again. pure pleasure is to be had here. one drifts back to another time, across decades, to experience the popular songs of another american culture. this is a perfect introduction to that decade for anyone. having heard these two volumes, i can't wait to give the forties another chance. i am being won over, i think. thanks rhino.

Songs That Got Us Through WWII.......2007-01-04

When my mother heard this CD that I played on a recent road trip, she sang along with every one! She loved it so much that I bought one for her, plus the second one in the set. The selections are great (variety of songs and artists) and recording quality very good considering a lot of these were recorded 60 years ago. This is a great CD for anyone over 50 who grew up with this music or listened to their parents play it.

The songs on this CD are the songs I loved listening & singing to when I
was a young teen. Wonderful CD!!!

Amazon.com

A romantic's collection if ever there was one, this cachet of songs graced the equally heart-tugging film. King of the Croon and Swoon, Nat King Cole's "Stardust" is probably the most obvious of the young lovers' themes here. Louis Armstrong and Jimmy Durante, ordinarily not the most romantic of sorts, prove themselves worthy contenders with "A Kiss to Build a Dream On" and "As Time Goes By," respectively. "In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning" gets an elegantly simple treatment from Carly Simon, and Tammy Wynette's "Stand by Your Man" confirms her status as the late, great Queen of Country. The only disappointments with this collection are the absence of heart-wrenching numbers by Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, or even Johnny Mathis; and the inclusion of the horrendous rendition of "When I Fall in Love" by the over-rated Celine Dion with Clive Griffin. --Steve Gdula

Bought this CD for Christmas to replace a worn out cassette tape of my Mom's. She can listen to this 24/7 and never get tired of it. Nice CD/soundtrack that will appeal to many age groups -- multigenerational. Highly recommended!

Possibly the best movie soundtrack of all time........2005-12-06

I absolutely love this soundtrack. My parents and I watched "Sleepless in Seattle" as the in-flight movie on the way to America and the movie always congures up such warm memories for me. We bought the soundtrack after coming back home and it has become almost like a lullaby to me. We have played the CD so often it actually wore out. Such timeless, soothing music. I think it is one of the best movie soundtracks of all movie. All other versions of any of the songs on the soundtrack just don't compare. I definately recommend this soundtrack to all.

A classic soundtrack for a classic romance. .......2005-06-26

This is one of the few album/soundtracks, in which I never skip a song, because each one is good and perfect. Each song's lyrics describes the relantionship perfect, about two people who don't meet intill the very end. Each song talk about the longing of each other and love. " As time goes by" by Jimmy Durante is pretty good and he puts his print on the famous song. " Stardust" by Nat King Cole is very romantic, and tells of two people who long to be together. " A wink and a smile" by Harry Conick Jr. tells of two people are meant for each other ( just like the main characters of the movie ). The theme to " An affair to remeber" is here, and is of course what the movie ( sleepless in seattle ) makes reference to! It's a gem of an album, and is romantic as the movie.

From the bottom of MY heart (I recommend).......2007-02-10

This CD is worth its money just for the song From The Bottom Of My Heart. Dammi,Dammi,Dammi is probably the best Italian love song by Dino, and certainly my favorite! Thus the other 15 songs are here absolutely free! Great deal, great sound, great Artist! The only weak point (which costs one star I have already deducted from the six it's worth): Take Me In Your Arms and Come Back To Sorrento are the same songs (performed in different languages) therefore should be separated. The editor of this CD (actually compilation and non-regular issue) should also made his mind what to include here: ITALIAN or ITALIAN LOVE songs; I'm affraid that Luna Mezzo Mare (Italian folk song) does not fit the LOVE criteria. Instead, I'll be very glad to see here O Marenariello (I Have But One Heart). Luna Mezzo Mare (like the other folk song Ma Come Bali Bella Bimba and famous Santa Lucia) may be included in the future Dino's Complete Italian Collection. Dreamer?

The Epitome of Romance.......2007-01-16

If your italian, married or dating one, or looking to date one, these songs are GOLD! Every romantic needs this CD in their collection to study and enjoy the full-bodied flavor of the Master "Dino" crooning these masterpieces. They include a full range of emotions and temperments one experiences in the attraction, pursuit, capture and loss of the most desireable human condition... To Love and Be Loved. Only the Italians can express love in so many colors and only Dean Martin can vocalize them. Dino is tops and this CD is proof. A great addition to any collection of love songs or Dean Martin hits. Great listening...great mood music...by one of the greatest lovers can put you and yours in the sweetest of situations.

This is one of the three all-ballad albums that John Coltrane recorded in late 1962 and early 1963. Johnny Hartman was apparently Coltrane's suggestion, and his deep, dark voice meshes perfectly here with Coltrane's tenor. The material is well-chosen, including definitive readings of "My One and Only Love" and "Lush Life." McCoy Tyner fills out the chords, augmenting the harmonies and keeping the tone of these ballads respectful but not overly sentimental. All the players get to the deep structure of the songs and are not afraid to play in the most essential and elegant manner. This is beautiful jazz. --Michael Monhart

Like a summer afternoon..........2007-08-03

This record reminds me of my honeymoon on the Florida panhandle before anybody went there a long time ago. It is a sleepy, dreamy, breezy, intoxicating recording that I don't think I could ever live without. It's like a lovely summer afternoon laying in a hammock, in the softest breeze imaginable. Thank you gentlemen.

Superb.......2007-07-14

The only reservation with this album is that is sadly very short (about 31 mins), but it's a truly marvellous album.
Hartman is blessed with as clear a baritone voice as you're ever likely to hear. There are a couple of moments on this recording where the Tenor Sax stops and Hartmans voice starts and its completely seamless.

These are all classic ballad songs, so if you're expecting long Coltrane solos forget it. This is mellow, and laid back. Think of Coltrane on the Ballads album but more so. A number of people I've spoken to over the years have used this as springboard to get into Coltrane.

The track listing is:
1. They Say It's Wonderful
2. Dedicated To You
3. My One and Only Love
4. Lush Life
5. You are too beautiful
6. Autumn Serenade

Sadly Hartman doesn't seem to have recorded much else (or its unavailable) but this album from 1963 is an absolute classic.

Essential Listening.......2007-07-04

Separately Coltrane and Hartman are great artists. Together they complement one another so much. This is a must buy.

Smooth with a capital S.......2007-02-24

I feel like I'm in the studio right along with them. What a wonderful addition to my rapidly growing jazz collection. Hartman's vocals perfectly suit the the mood of Coltrane's sexy sax. You can't beat this combination.

They Say It's Wonderful.......2007-01-26

They all say it's wonderful and, wow, it really is...

Showing Coltrane's mellow and romantic side (also seen on his "My Favorite Things"), this album brings the great and precise vocalist Hartman into Coltrane's classical band and together they create something so delicate and subtle I hardly believed it when I heard it. This means that Tyner's intelligent piano and Garrison's and Jones' unobtrusive rhytmical support are also essential for this musical triumph.

Is it modern jazz? Is it musically conservative? Answers to both questions should probably be in the affirmative; great music is often too complex to be placed in neatly divided groups...

Coltrane's tone is, I must admit, far from being among my favorite sounds in jazz, but on this album even that aspect of his music pleases me very much. He is as light and full of innuendos as the tone of Johnny Hodges, Paul Desmond and Lester Young at their most breazy and mellow, but at the same time the Trane is still strong and autoritative in creating his solos and obligattos.

If I repeat some words in this clumsy description, it is not just because English is not my mother tongue: no language can trully explain these subtle sounds and emotions; only a lyrical poem could suffice (and I'm no poet).
Just listen how Hartman merges with Coltrane and his band from the beginning of "You are too beautiful ...". A true object of beauty.

Great Songs, Great Memories.......2007-07-31

This is a great collection just for the songs themselves. Even better, the whole song is included, not just a verse or maybe two. And the lyrics are clear, important for aging memories. I look forward to sharing the whole set with my grandchildren.

Great fun!.......2007-07-18

My daughter (11) and nephews (8, 1) all love this CD. The older kids have fun singing & dancing with the baby, and the baby loves to listen to the CD by himself as well.

Great songs!.......2007-02-11

My kids love these volumes of Children's Favorite Songs, as do I. The arrangements and voicings are child friendly without being dull.

Great songs on this CD. Nice variety, wonderful singers. My grandchildren want it on in the car every time we go out. Lots of old favorites that I like too.

Great songs, but this collection has many country-style songs.......2006-12-02

This CD is tolerable. We own Volume 1 and love it. I bought this one specifically for one of the songs it contains.

My son loves it, but a note to parents - this CD has a country music feel to it.

Amazon.com essential recording

The first of many artistic milestones in the long and illustrious collaboration of Frank Sinatra and arranger Nelson Riddle that began at Capitol Records, In the Wee Small Hours is a first in other notable ways, as well: it was the pair's first 12-inch LP; their first album devoted entirely to ballads; the first "concept album," a program of songs designed to be heard in a particular sequence that sustains a mood and suggests a story; the introduction of Sinatra's definitive "saloon singer" persona; and the first flowering of Sinatra's mature artistic sensibility. Oh, and it's a masterpiece, too. The cover portrait suggests the mood of late-night desolation almost as effectively as the music, with Sinatra in the corner, smoking a solitary cigarette on deserted street illuminated only by the a foggy, blue-green glow of lamplight. Loneliness, thy name is Frank! They say that memories of Ava Gardner caused him to break down after finishing this aching version of "When Your Lover Has Gone." Riddle's clarinet theme for "What Is this Thing Called Love?" is as haunting as Cole Porter's melody itself. And if there's a more devastating evocation of solitude than "It Never Entered My Mind"... well it must be on Only the Lonely. With songs like "I'll Be Around" and "Dancing on the Ceiling" to suggest at least the hope of hope, Wee Small Hours may flirt with despair, but never succumbs to it. It's the kind of comforting company that misery likes best. --Jim Emerson

The Range Of Sinatra.......2007-07-10

Many may think he had an ordinary voice. This CD shows the emotional range of Sinatras music

My Top Sinatra album, Charlie!.......2007-06-30

I had to choose between this and so many other albums (Only The Lonely, Songs for Swingin' Lovers etc.) It's not like choosing between your children, it's like choosing between your nuts and your arms (to be absolutely male about it.) But Wee Small Hours wins out for this reason...I feel it. I've been there. I know what he is singing about. I hate the fact that I know it, but I know it nonetheless. I've had my own Ava Gardner... haven't we all? And if you put on this album, you hear it. And it really comes down to that. You will love this if you get it, and you won't get it unless you love it. Have you fallen head first? Have you felt like swinging on a star when you see her? Has it ended badly? Then listen to this disc. He says what you feel and think. It sucks, doesn't it? Frank knew all about it, and he put it on vinyl. I don't know of many singers that ever got this personal.... especially when they didn't write any of the songs.

BUY IT. If you don't like it... well, I have no words for you. It's a gamble you will have to make. But think of it this way... why do you know who Frank Sinatra is? There must be a good reason.

The single finest collection of mood songs ever recorded--BRAVO, FRANK !!!.......2007-06-09

Frank Sinatra possessed the great wisdom to see the new LP record album as an opportunity to create a "concept album" of songs all about one topic. In The Wee Small Hours offers us a track set of songs all about love gone wrong and unrequited love. Frank sings with panache and his somewhat deepened voice reflects a vocal maturity that few singers ever attain. This CD proves it all.

The CD begins with the title track, "In The Wee Small Hours." "In The Wee Small Hours" deals with the consequences of a love gone bad--Frank sings of a man who sadly remembers his one true love who left him. The musical arrangement by Nelson Riddle enhances the beauty of this number and Frank delivers this with strength; and the vulnerability in his voice ironically makes his performance much, much stronger and beautiful.

"Mood Indigo" follows; and this song again reflects the usual high level of quality control Sinatra always maintained. He sings "Mood Indigo" passionately and the slow tempo of the arrangement works remarkably well. "I Get Along Without You Very Well" begins with a haunting musical intro and when Frank Sinatra comes in his voice is in excellent form as it is throughout this entire album. Frank delivers this with a degree of sensitivity that I rarely hear from any singer.

"Can't We be Friends" explores the thorny issue of a woman asking Frank if they could now just be friends instead of the lovers they once were. Frank focuses on the frustration and angst he experiences when their love goes wrong. In addition, many people say that "When Your Lover Has Gone" is both an excellent number and a reference to the pain Frank Sinatra felt after Ava Gardner ended their romance and marriage. Frank sings this with the greatest passion and the unmistakable sadness in his trembling voice convinces you he really IS thinking about Ava as he performs this number. Powerful stuff!

"Last Night When We Were Young" again laments a love gone wrong; Frank delivers this number without a single superfluous note. "I'll Be Around" explores the theme of a man waiting for his woman just in case her latest male lover leaves her. The musical arrangement for "I'll Be Around" is played very softly in the background; and this infuses this number with sublime elegance.

"Ill Wind" has a haunting quality to it with its musical arrangement and the incredible pain in Frank's voice; Frank projects the emotional pain of dealing with a lost romance very well. In addition, "Dancing On The Ceiling" approaches the topic of lost love from a different angle--this time Frank fantasizes about his woman dancing on the ceiling as he gazes up at his ceiling after he is in bed for the night.

The track set ends with "This Love Of Mine;" Frank delivers this flawlessly. Frank Sinatra sings so beautifully of how his heart will always belong to his one true sweetheart. "This Love Of Mine" will touch you with its graceful beauty.

The liner notes contain a great essay by Pete Welding. You also get the song credits and recording dates for each song. Larry Walsh at Capitol Recording Studios did a fantastic job of digitally remastering these singularly exquisite ballads.

Frank Sinatra will always remain a legend in the entertainment industry. When Frank sang, you listened--and you listened closely, too, because few singers could ever merely just begin to approach what Frank could do with seemingly little effort. We are all better off for his sharing his talent with us; and this CD will be an automatic "must-have" for Sinatra fans. People who love classic pop vocals and easy listening vocals will treasure this CD forever.

Bravo, Frank!!!

A timeless masterpiece.......2007-05-20

Sinatra at his sultry best. This is unquestionably the one album to take with you to a desert island (with a beautiful lover). It will always be Frank's world - we just live in it, and listen... .

Heartache makes for a classic.......2007-05-18

Sinatra was not really from my generation but rather I listened and appreciated his voice through my parents; I guess subliminally and through osmosis I learned to like old blue eyes. Fast forwrd many years and I now listen to Sinatra on any given day. Of all his albums that I own , both LP's and CD's this is one of my favorites. It is classic Sinatra. The other reviewers hit on the background of the disc, the music itself, etc. so I'll just add that this disc is in my top ten all time in a collection that is out of hand after some forty years of collecting music. This is music for the those quite sad, lonely moments, where melancholy and despair turns to hope for a new day. It is music that reflects springtime, when life is brand new and the diversity and colors of the world are more vivid than before and the new season brings new life. After the shock and heartbreak of breakup comes the promise of starting over alone or with someone even better, we learn from our mistakes. We have all been there before, the heartbreak is an inevitable part of life and Sinatra conveys his own heartbreak like no other. The voice is still young, in transition from the crooning WWII era matinee idol to establish further his credentials as an American original. His phrasing is impeccable. What he left with this disc is a very personal memoir. This is a landmark disc from one of the great, if not the greatest American singer of the 20th Century. Recommended for lovers of great music.
