Album Description

Want My Mommy (Time for Bed)" is the No.1 song XM Kids national satellite radio! In addition, The Movers' debut disc, "Good Ideas," has been named a 2003 Parents' Choice Recommended CD and was named Best Recording for Younger Children by Children's Music Web. Also, "Toothache," a tune about dental hygiene set to an old-school rap beat, garnered a 2003 Great American Song Honor Award and the Caribbean inspired "The Medicine Song" was recently named a finalist in the USA Songwriting Contest. Imagination Movers combine pop, hip-hop, rock and world music with educational themes for kids and their parents. The Movers sing about healthy eating, separation anxiety, sibling rivalry and other topics that relate to being a little kid, but the group's musical style has a decidedly grownup groove. Think Mr.. Rogers meets the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Regardless of how you describe it, Movers music is catchy stuff that parents and children will want to listen to over and over again!

5 out of 5 stars Awesome CD!.......2007-07-17

I bought my 3 1/2 year old son this CD after I bought the DVD. We listen to the CD every morning when I'm dropping him off to see Grandmom and he will sing the songs all day long. This CD is a must for any music lover. Even the parents will love this CD. The songs are definitely for the kids, but the music and the beats will have the parents dancing.

5 out of 5 stars MOVE Over Wiggles!.......2007-07-17

OMG - what a breath of fresh air after listening nonstop to the Wiggles for what has seemed like an eternity! The Imagination Movers' songs actually display musical talent and target issues that are important to little kids. My daughter (and my husband) loves "Time Out" - it is just a hillarious take on the toddler-set punishment. I recently ordered the DVD too in the hopes that my daughter (who is 3 1/2) will really bond to them after seeing them and will forget the Wiggles altogether! They are AWESOME! I can play this music in my car and no one who hears it will even be aware that it is children's music. It is thoroughly enjoyable. I can not wait for the Imagination Movers children's show to come out on Disney next year!

5 out of 5 stars We love it!.......2007-02-19

We love the Imagination Movers! After seeing them on the disney channel, we decided to purchase the cd for our car rides. We all love them, even my husband and I sing the songs! My personal favorite is the song about going to bed.
Great Music!

5 out of 5 stars Great children's music.......2007-01-18

If you are only going to buy one children's music CD, buy this one. My three year old listens to it all the time. It is fun for adults and children alike. It still sounds good even after the 1000th time of hearing it (and you will hear it a 1000 times). The music is very hip, but the lyrics are written from a toddlers point of view. I especially like "The wah wah song", "one more book" and "Shakeable Fruit". Its obviously written by guys with a sense of humor and young children. Pity I can't give it more than five stars - highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD!.......2007-01-10

Imagination Movers are great performers and singers. My kids, 2 1/2 and 20 mos, just love their music. Highly recommend it.

Amazon.com

Most of the artists on this tribute to Sam Phillips's legendary Memphis label have chosen to cover the rockabilly hits. It isn't until a genuine Sun rockabilly artist--the late Carl Perkins--makes an appearance, joining Van Morrison for Howlin' Wolf's "Sittin' on Top of the World," that things briefly get bluesy. Instead, Paul McCartney, Jeff Beck, Chrissie Hynde, Tom Petty, and Bryan Ferry all offer up loving, note-for-note recreations of early Elvis tunes, even if it was Jerry Lee Lewis, not Elvis, who recorded a cover of "Don't Be Cruel" (Ferry's tune) for Sun.

But Elton John and Mandy Barnett both do The Killer (Lewis) proud here, as Sheryl Crow later does for Charlie Rich, and Led Zep's Page & Plant do for Sonny Burgess. Especially marvelous is Bob Dylan's subtle and, at times, hilarious take on Warren Smith's "Red Cadillac and a Black Moustache." It's a career highlight and every bit as enchanting as Robert Gordon's '70s cover version. Like the label itself, there are more hits than misses here. --Bill Holdship

3 out of 5 stars Kid Rock ?.......2007-08-06

This is a good cd . It would be a very good cd if Kid Rock didn't absolutely suck.

5 out of 5 stars rockabilly summit.......2007-04-22

This is a unique gathering of musical giants. Where else can you find a CD with Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Scotty Moore, James Burton, Paul McCartney, Elton John, Robert Plant and Bob Dylan. This much starpower has never been put on one CD before. Every song sounds like a hit. Some like Plant, Dylan, Tom Petty and Bryan Ferry definitely try to be rockabilly while others like LIVE and Kid Rock do what they do best. Rap and grunge don't really fit in with the theme here but its just a brief departure from an otherwise retro disc of bliss.

3 out of 5 stars It Rocks,however..........2002-08-13

A tribute to Sun Records and not a cut from the Killer?? Jerry Lee Lewis lives right down the road from Sun Studio,so why was he excluded from a "tribute" to his old stable? For all who may not know,he still ROCKS,and does so with alot of gusto!! I did enjoy the Dylan cut,as well as McCartney,ChrissieHynde,Van and Carl,Kid Rock,Cheryl,and the rest,many of these tunes have been covered before,and were hits, many by the guy who was snubbed,Mr. Lewis! So what gives?? If the listener isn"t aware of Sam Phillips,the big "E",Carl,Killer,Cash,Warren Smith,Howlin Wolk ,Rufus Thomas and all the rest,then this will help open a door to some reat roots music for them,I found it refreshing overall.

2 out of 5 stars Not a legacy to stand on.......2002-06-09

If this were a tribute record, it would be but one of many that have littered the record and CD shelves for the past forty years or so. But this is not a tribute record. It is "the legacy of Sun Records" (see subtitle). What does that mean, exactly? I have no idea, but, apparently, the Sun legacy consists of clueless Sun "cover" versions offered up by clueless celebrity rockers. Somebody should contest the will, in my opinion. (Wait-isn't Sam Phillips still alive?)

Anyway, some of the tracks are harmless enough. McCartney does a very pleasant "That's All Right," with Scotty Moore as laid-back and lovable as ever. And Jeff Beck's guitar showing-off on "Mystery Train" is fun, even if it fails to drown out Chrissie Hynde's inexplicably orgiastic singing, to use the latter term as lightly as possible. And it's always nice to hear Carl Perkins. Perkins, Moore, and McCartney are as good as it gets, though a few of the other acts try to be creative--most notably, LIVE, who play "I Walk the Line" in minor mode to interesting effect. While LIVE's version doesn't displace the memory of Johnny Cash-or, for that matter, Jaye P. Morgan, who had a contemporary pop hit with the song-at least the group tries..

The same can't be said of the self-obsessed rockers Page and Plant, whose abominable version of "My Bucket's Got a Hole in It" is the CD's worst offering. This simple and infectious novelty number was done many years ago by Hank Williams in a style called "music." Tom Petty's "Blue Moon of Kentucky" is only slightly better. Petty, who sings with an indeterminate accent, seems to be trying for a pop-journalistic version of authenticity. Only he knows what he is doing. This tacky package is completed by faux-primitive cover and booklet art, along with the most hilariously illiterate liner notes ever written. Two stars for the handful of musicians mentioned above. You'd think they'd have better things to do with their time and talent.

5 out of 5 stars Pulled Off A Very Difficult Project--Great Album!.......2002-06-08

Let me preface by saying I'm a big fan of American roots music. Growing up, I absolutely craved this type of stuff. I could find a few Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters records at the local library and I "borrowed" my grandfathers Hank Williams record, but Elvis Presley was about the only Sun music readily available. RCA's release of the Complete Sun Sessions in 87 lead me to a general interest in the sun music catalog. Many of the songs I owned as EPs that had been given to me by my grandmother. As a graduating senior from college 93, I took a road trip to Memphis and visited Sun Studio. In the store above the studio, I purchased 2 U.K. Import CDs from Charley Records Limited, The Sun Story Vol. 1 Sunrise & The Sun Story Vol. 2 Rockabilly Rhythm. You wouldn't think that the Europeans would have a better handle on our own music but that always seems to be the case.

By now I'm familiar with almost all of these songs. I can honestly say there aren't any "mailed in" performances to get on the album. Many of these songs are deceivingly simple, especially by today's standards, but to attack them with such sincerity is part of what makes this a great album.

Scotty Moore (Rock & Roll HOF inductee, Sun Records Elvis Presley guitarist) appears on "That's All Right" and "Don't Be Cruel" with D. J. Fontana (Elvis Presley drummer). In all honesty, Scotty deserves as much credit for the Rock and Roll stylings on those two songs as Elvis Presley. I'm glad he could be on the album with Paul McCartney no less.

Paul McCartney (no slouch in the legend department) does a bang up job on vocals with "That's all Right". He's very sincere. I don't see how you could sing this song without curling your lip. Perhaps he was.

I wish Scotty Moore could have played on "Mystery Train" (he took the Elvis version a much different direction from the Little Junior version), but Jeff Beck goes way beyond what Scotty did and rocks it out. Very Nice (show off)! Chrissie Hynde is her interesting self on vocals.

Jimmy Page & Robert Plant send up the sloppy "My Buckets Got A Hole In It" in true rock fashion.

Elton John pumps the piano in true Jerry Lee form on "Whole Lotta Shakin' Going On". Who has done more for the piano in Rock and Roll than Jerry Lee Lewis and Elton John? It just has to be on here.

It's great to have Carl Perkins on "Sittin' On Top Of The World". His distinctive voice sets up the even more distinctive Van Morrison to cut right into the song. Van Morrison, the producer, does himself a favor here, but it works really well.

Bob Dylan's "Red Cadillac And A Black Moustache" is a pull back in energy from the original Warren Smith version. I guess if you're Bob Dylan you can do whatever you want. His thinner, nasalier voice drips with the emotion of his later works.

"Lonely Weekend" by Matchbox 20 and "I Walk the Line" by Live are the more experimental tracks.

Chrlie Rich's (yes, the Silver Fox) "Lonely Weekend" was a well written, over produced song that he chose to sing in Elvis Presley vocal style. Matchbox 20 showed more originality than Charlie Rich in this regard.

Live decided to play with dynamics to create a dark and brooding "I Walk The Line". How can someone complain about a dark and brooding version of a Johnny Cash song? (When I play it I use lots of distortion too.)

My biggest disappointment is the Chris Isaak "It wouldn't be the same without you". Chris does a good job here, but his vocal abilities to channel the spirit of Elvis are not put to use. What were you thinking?! He has previously recorded "Blue Moon" for an Elvis tribute album with Scotty Moore, and I swear it sounded better than Elvis.

Finally, what can I say about Kid Rock? He belongs on here. Rap was as cutting edge as this music in its time. Bawdy and brash. I know Elvis would have rapped had he lived into the Nineteen Eighties. Great Album!

they are everything you could want in 60's Heavy Psychedelic Rock the way it should be "Live and Wild" the only thing I did not like was that they changed the order of the songs and I only knew that because of a bad cut which did not effect any of the song preformances. Tim and Carmine Still blow you away. Turn it Up and trip to the 60's.

5 out of 5 stars Sista Monica's comeback CD tells it all!.......2005-09-29

Ohmygosh! Reading the insert, I learned that Sista Monica was absent for two years battling and beating a difficult cancer. Sista Monica wrote amazingly inspirational songs about her story in this album, many autobiographical. Can't Keep a Good Woman Down, Cookin' with Grease, It's Good to be Alive!, Surrender to Love. Amazing and hot music! I found myself dancing wildly in my livingroom, by myself, and then bought all her other albums (this was my first). The insert also told me she is donating 10% of the sales to healingjourneys.org, whose trademark is "Cancer as a turning point, from surviving to thriving!" Maybe the Powers that Be healed this woman so she can continue to inspire people for a long time to come! I have since read about her winning audiences over immediately, as she has sung all over the world. Treat yourself to this one. And you'll help people in real need too. Wow.

Album Description

Wynonie Harris earned the nickname "Mr. Blues" as one of the premier blues shouters of his era, surpassing all of his competition in sales as well as the more subjective category of artistry. Although he recorded for a number of other labels over a twenty year period, it is these recordings that he made for the King Records label for which his fame was so rightfully earned.

Album Description

Subtitled - The Very Best Of Wynonie Harris. Boisterous, bigger than life R&B pioneer, Wynonie Harris enjoyed a three decade recording and performing career as a prominent singer and emcee. In 1947, Wynonie Harris joined the star-studded roster of Cincinnati's King Records. Wynonie Harris' biggest hit, 'Good Rockin' Tonight' became a pivotal track in the emergence of Rock 'N' Roll when Elvis Presley recorded the song for Sun Records. R&B at its finest is represented on 'Good Rockin' Tonight', featuring 25 tracks including 'I Like My Baby's Pudding', 'Good Morning Judge', 'All She Wants To Do Is Rock' & many more. Collectables. 2003.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Rock, Mr. Blues!.......2007-08-01

So who really first sang those words "I heard the news/There's good rockin' tonight"? Not Elvis. It was one of his many influences: Mr. Blues himself, the great Wynonie Harris. Collectables, a big oldies reissue company like Rhino Records, has done an excellent job with this, perhaps the best single-disc set of Wynonie Harris. 25 great platters from his King years (the cream of the crop in his recorded material) are presented in an amiable sound quality lasting over an hour. Highlights of this disc include the title track, "All She Wants To Do Is Rock", "Sittin' On It All The Time", "Rock Mr. Blues", "Oh Babe", "Lovin' Machine", and a "Lawdy Miss Clawdy"-sounding number called "Christina." All of them are mid-tempo or fast songs and have that good ol' boogie-woogie beat and swing feel that you can dance to. Crank the volume way up and people will think you have a party right in your home when they hear the thumping bass, the driving drums, the wailing horns, and Wynonie's raucous vocals along with the sharp responses of the backing vocalisits. These are great examples of what early R&B music was in America when late-night listeners were discovering tunes like these during the few years following World War II. The jump blues formula, evident in all of these songs, was one of the key elements for forming what they called "rock'n'roll". King Records was one of the most prominent indie labels in the late '40s and throughout the '50s along with Atlantic and Chess; Wynonie Harris played an important role in helping to create the early R&B sound that would catch on. This is absoultely worth listening to and checking out. By the way, if you look at the album cover while listening to the music, especially the fast songs, try not to laugh. Smiling is contagious. You know he must have had some fun making this music, and you'll have fun discovering it.

4 out of 5 stars Very interesting "remixes".......2006-08-11

This CD was originally released with the "Concert Anthology" release. It features "remixes" with some former members of the Stray Cats playing along with six of Elvis' early live performances from the 1950's. The result is interesting and makes one wish that Elvis had lived long enough to have a real jam session with the Stray Cats (of course if he had, The Colonel never would have allowed such a session). Most of the tracks sound pretty good. "Good Rockin Tonight" sounds like Elvis is singing through a megaphone, which is not a bad effect but takes a listen or two to get used too. They did not do a very good job of melding the old and new recordings on "Tweedle Dee" because it is obvious when they turn on and off the original recording. The others are not as obvious.

5 out of 5 stars If you love Elvis and the Stray Cats then this is essential.......2005-12-31

Reviewer: giles_uk from Tunbridge Wells, Kent, United Kingdom


If you love Elvis and the Stray Cats then this is essential.

Elvis "Sings" and 2 of the 3 Stray Cats "Play the Instruments". Would have been awesome if the Elvis tape used was from the "Sun Recordings" and not the inferior radio show tapes. But that is not the fault of: Elvis, 2 of the 3 Stray Cats, or the Sound Engineers.

I have all these "as originally recorded" and "heck" I still enjoy this CD. If you are an Elvis purist and can't stand anything but the original "as recorded" then this is not for you. BUT if you love anything / everything Elvis (and I do) then try these. It would be great to have all of "The Kings" mono recordings re-done with new, but authentic backing music in stereo. The purist need not buy them, but if tastefully done I would certainly re-buy the "modern" re-recordings .

BMG/Sony: Since you own the rights to the pre- 1973 Elvis Catalogue isn't this a great way for you to make more money ????

5 out of 5 stars Elvis Is Still Rockin Tonight.......2005-03-25

This is a great CD, a very well produced collaboration between two time periods. The instrumentation played in the new millenium provided by members of the String Cats and Stray Cats, which replaces Scotty Moore and Bill Black, goes really well with Elvis's live performance pieces from the mid 50s. I am amazed how well done this is, especially the first two songs which seem flawless. The new back-up band from the present breathes new life to Elvis's classic hits from his rockabilly days. My only complaint is that this CD has far too few songs. I would love to hear more of Elvis's hit rock n' roll songs from the 50s get similar treatment from rockabilly artists of today. Anyway, it's great to listen too and I enjoy the new treatment to these songs a lot. Elvis will rock the house forever.

Product Description

2000 GRAMMY NOMINEE for BEST CLASSICAL CROSSOVER - The CenturyMen named by NBC as "The Finest Male Chorus in America"

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Mens Corale (about 100 men) sing inspiring Christmas Music !!!.......2005-11-22

This is probably the best men's chorus (approximately 100 singers from across America) I have ever heard recorded. The album jacket indicates each of the participants are professionals.

The songs are extremely well orchestrated and a wide variety of Christian Christmas music is provided. The track "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem is breathtaking. I heard this track about 3 years ago and kept searching for the CD until I recently found it on Amazon. I have played it almost continually since I received the album.

4 out of 5 stars Early Elvis.......2006-08-17

This CD is a scream - literally - as Elvis, Scotty Moore and Bill Black rock out on the Louisiana Hayride. There's a lot of narration between songs. It's informative, during the first listen anyway. It's the music that stands strong here.

5 out of 5 stars GOSH DARN RIGHT GOOD ROCKIN 2NIGHT.......2004-02-26

Let's clean up our language a bit. This is great music essential Elvis! Essential rockabilly tight rhythm section!

5 out of 5 stars God Damn Right Good Rockin' Tonight!.......2003-10-04

This is a truly amazing archive into the spark that spawned 'The King of Rock'n'roll. The sound quuality is great and so is the sound. Elvis is in top form and you can hear the audience love it. What can beat a fresh faced, hiccupin' Elvis with a stunning Scotty Moore on guitar, electrifying us with his haunting guitar echo and Bill Black laying down the vibe.
