Peter the great.......2007-07-07

Ive seen the WHO back in the day when all four were turning the music world upside down. They rocked my world. During the 60s I was fortunate enough to see all the heavy hitters. Nothing came even close to their live shows. Pete's solo work is brilliant, in the extreme. He writes 'em, sings, plays rhythm and lead. I believe that the WHO and Pete's solo work are beyond.

Four essential gems among the sprawling 2 discs.......2007-04-10

Girl In A Suitcase (outtake from the autobiographic Who by Numbers), Brooklyn Kids & Football Fugue (2 orchestral masterpieces) , Never Ask Me (outtake from Who are You)
These may be the 4 most underrated Who related songs many people have never heard.

WWTD.......2007-01-31

I'm a huge Pete Townshend Fan. I love his guitar style, his lyrical style, he's nothing less than a genius. This particular album I consider a must have for any Townshend fan. You can see many of the tracks that later became songs made famous by The Who, and songs that never made it to an album. It gives a brand new perspective in the writing style of Townshend. Along with Scoop and Scoop 3, I can always find inspiration in this album. If I run into trouble while writing, I as myself: "What would Townshend do?"

Have another scoop of music--it's good for ya!.......2006-11-25

"Another Scoop" will be essential for Who/Townshend fans. While the finished demos somethings don't differ signficantly from the version recorded by The Who to hear Townshend sing it (vs. Roger)adds another element to the song. The most fascinating bits though are acoustic demos of various songs at various stages of completion (lyrics missing, perhaps a bit of music not quite there yet). It's a fascinating glimpse into the creative process.

More important though for fans are the previously unreleased demos of songs that WEREN'T recorded by Pete or released by The Who. These aren't second rate bits of music by any stretch of the imagination but, in most cases, just didn't fit in with what Pete or the band wanted to put out at the time.

As with the other Scoop releases there's lyrics and liner notes by Pete discussing the various tracks and their recordings. If you purchased the previous version the sound is slightly better here as they were remastered from the original source tapes but keep in mind that many of these demos were recorded on 4 track machines, etc. in Pete's home studio vs. a modern recording studio and have some limitations (and charm)that you won't find on the finished album.

Amazing Work From a Legend.......2006-09-21

I find it truly amazing to hear these songs played on acoustic guitar. It is really interesting to me to compare the way Pete sings it on the original take versus how Roger would sing it on the master that everyone knows. I love hearing demos of any band, but particularly of The Who. To hear "Substitute" without Keith Moon roaring in the background. Or to hear "You Better You Bet" with lyrics missing. It's thrilling for any Who fan.

Every band seems to have, at some point in their career, put together a collection of unreleased work. The Beatles had their 3 Anthology sets, The Rolling Stones released multiple collections, and now you can have the newly rereleased Scoop albums, full of fascinating material by Pete Townshend. I'm only sorry we can't hear more.

Remastered journey through Pete's archive of demos..........2006-11-14

The third installment (and last so far) of "Scoop" covers everything from demos for his solo projects ("Tough Boys" which became "Rough Boys")to Who albums (early demos for "Can You See the Real Me", "Teresa" which became "Athena", "Did You Steal My Money?")and collaborations (Pete's "All Lovers Are Deranged" with the original music he composed for it vs. the music that David Gilmour wrote for it). There's also a fair sampling of instrumental pieces and experiments. Others are interesting variations but the final recordings remain the definitive versions for example Pete's version of "All Lovers Are Deranged" which pales compared to David Gilmour's version on "About Face" but which features Pete's lyrics with a completely different melody and musical backing track. It is fun though to hear Pete sing songs that Roger had previously recorded the vocals for on various Who albums.

As with the previous editions of "Scoop" we get liner notes from Pete discussing the origin of the songs/compositions and additional background information. Some of the songs such as Pete's guitar/percussion demo for "Athena" and the unusual remake of "Eminence Front" with Pete on piano are better or different enough from the original versions to make them essential for Townshend/Who fans.

an excellent buy.......2006-10-19

I've held off buying Scoop 3; I don't really know why. Both Scoop and Another Scoop were revelatory and excellent. Maybe I was skeptical of Townsehnd's later work. Maybe I was just waiting for this reiusse. I don't know if it is a sonic upgrade, but it is another uniformly exellent batch of demos from Pete. I was uncertain that Scoop 3 could match the quality of the previous Scoops, as I thought his songwriting had diminished some over the years. Turns out that might have just been production. These demos are nearly as good as the ones on the previous Scoops, and Townshend's liner notes are, as always, highly entertaining.

At the current going price, this is a very good buy. Highly recommended.

New Edition Of Scoop Catches Us Up To The Present.......2006-09-17

Each Scoop series seems to tackle Pete's material in a chronological order. The first Scoop contained material that was older, and among his first recordings (not always, but as a general rule). The demos were of rawer songs, and the new stuff tended towards earlier townshend. Another Scoop dealt with middle period townshend, such as you better you bet, and the demos reflected the more mature songwriting of that period. Now we get to Scoop 3.

This collection examines Pete's latest work, by including the newest stuff he had been working on, material that is more classical and composed, as opposed to the more rock material he wrote before. This was the first collection of new Pete material released since Psychoderelict ten years ago. It whetted the appetite, somewhat, for the new Who album that was being promised so much, but being so highly doubted. Then Wire and Glass and an October 31st release date. It's a good time to be a Who fan, as Wire And Glass was VERY promising. John and Keith are missed immeasurably, and it's debatable as to whether or not they should continue as the who.

However, and this may seem harsh, Pete has been and always will be The Who. He wrote 99% of the songs both musically and lyrically. He took the band in whatever direction he wanted to, crafted the concepts etc. And as the Scoop series illustrates, the sounds you hear on the who albums are entirely of his mind. Again, I don't mean to insult Keith or John, brilliant instrumentalists, and in John, a very good songwriter. Without John and Keith's input instrumentally, the band wouldn't have been as kinetic and electric as they were. Yes, Pete could arrange all these songs and record them easily. But could he fake chemistry? These demos all sound like demos, with a great sound, great songwriting, but no oooomph. John and Keith, greatest rhytmn section in rock history, added that oomph. Their chemistry with Pete and Roger cannot be denied. Though the sound of the who was all pete's, John and Keith took that sound and interacted with Pete, fine tuned it, electrified it, and helped make it the classic sound that it is.

Which is why they'll be missed. The new e.p. has a lot of electricity, and the bandmates do seem to click with great energy. However, it's not quite the same as that almost psychic interaction between the who that existed all the way up till moon's death. So while Pete is definitley the who, it will not be the same without Keith or John.

Sorry to go on a long tangent. The quality of the songs here is uniformly excellent. The extra material makes good segues and background music, and begs the question as to why pete hasn't scored movies, besides that awful Tommy movie. Come to think of it, his score wasn't so great on that either. Nevermind.

Basically, buy this if you have the other scoop series. It makes no sense not to.

A triple treat.......2005-02-22

This 2-CD set collects the 3 Concord LPs "Triple Treat I, II, and III." All 3 LPs are consistently of a high level. Herb Ellis and Ray Brown are on all 3 dates, and John Frigo (violin) joins on Treat II. "Flintstones theme" (almost an early Concord anthem), "Seven come eleven," "I'll remember April," and "There will never be another you" are all up-tempo swingers and are the highlights of the set. If you like piano trio music, you'll like this set a lot. Recommended.

Still a healthy "Scoop" of Pete's solo demos but could have been put on one CD.......2006-11-12

Very few artists rejected demos would be interesting. I can think of maybe a handful of artists -Andy Partridge, The Beatles, Ray Davies and Pete Townshend who create demos that are detailed and equal or nearly equal in stature to the stuff they released with their respective bands (or as solo artists). "Scoop" originally released in the 80's features a healthy 25 tracks of Who, solo and unreleased demos from throughout Pete's career. Keep in mind that the sound quality on this set varies depending upon how old the original demo is and how it was recorded so that means often some of this stuff might not measure up to the finished final versions but they have a charm all their own.

This remaster (sadly) doesn't feature any bonus tracks nor did anyone bother to add any special notes to the booklet beyond what was in the original vinyl release/CD release. That along with the fact that BOTH discs could have fit on a single CD (they come out to about 75 minutes total)suggests that this isn't really worth repurchasing if you got the first CD issue.

On the other hand if you don't own this set and are a Who/Townshend fan you're doing yourself a disservice. There's some terrific previously unreleased material contained on this set. As with later sets in his series "Scoop" (which probably inspired The Beatles to do the Anthology series)features some thrilling tracks that were surprisingly rejected for Who albums. Even the "rejects" prove Townshend's depth as a writer with fascinating melodies and thoughtful lyrics.

The sound quality is marginally better with Jon Astley doing a nice job of remastering the songs for CD. There is slightly better depth and clarity but that is all dependent upon how good the original demo sounded as well.

The songs cover Who releases (demos for "So Sad About", "Squeezebox" which has quite a bit of charm in Pete's solo version, "Bargain", "Behind Blue Eyes", "Magic Bus", "Cache, Cache" and "Love Reign O'er Me")and rejected demos for both Pete's solo albums ("You're So Clever", "Body Langauge") and The Who ("Popular" which when retooled provided the basis for "It's Hard", "Dirty Water" and "Zelda" demos for "Face Dances", "Mary" originally intended for the double "Lifehouse" album that turned into "Who's Next")as well as odd instrumentals and experiments. Most of it is tuneful and well worth listening to.

In many respects the "Scoop" series inspired other performers/writers to release their rarities/demos (Andy Partridge's "Fuzzy Warbles" series, The Beatles "Anthology" series which included band outtakes as well, Dave Davies' demo releases, etc.)and some of these releases certainly live up to the quality of Pete's first venture into the archives. If you don't have "Scoop" and are a Who/Townshend fan it's well worth picking up. If you have the previous CD edition I'd suggest spending your money on something new or with bonus tracks (or--radical thought--try and download the best songs here and save a bit of $$).

Album Description

Scoop is the new contemporary comedy from writer/director Woody Allen who stars in the film with Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johansson and Ian McShane. Scoop is the second consecutive picture that the filmmaker has set and shot in London (following Match Point). The soundtrack for Scoop includes several classical tracks hand-picked by Woody Allen.

Woody Allen reports that he chose the music based on "his instincts about what would work in the film."Capturing the playful spirit of the film, the soundtrack's lush orchestrations and quick tempo complement the mysterious motif of the story. The soundtrack consists almost entirely of beautiful classical music by Tchaikovsky, Grieg and Johann Strauss -- a unique assemblage for any soundtrack, especially one from a movie not entirely about classical music itself. These timeless melodies from The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, and Peer Gynt will be recognized with pleasure by every listener.

Scoop tells the story of Sondra Pransky (Scarlett Johansson), a student journalist for a college paper visiting friends in London who happens upon the scoop of a lifetime. Along the investigative trail, she finds magic, murder, mystery -- and perhaps love, with British aristocrat Peter Lyman (Hugh Jackman).

Review by William Cuddy - age 9.......2006-12-19

Scoop
Scoop has comedy in almost every corner, a plot that seems elaborate but is simple for its viewers. I understand why all who watch it seem to get the giggles. It's an amazing film, but then again most of Woody Allen's films are funny and clever. Scoop mixes the suspense of his earlier movie, Match Point, with the current comedy of Scoop. The reality beats that of Casino Royale by far. Scoop's one-liners and physical comedy make it one of his funnier films. Some reviewers of his previous film, Match Point (such as Stylus Magazine), have given Scoop a bad review because they think it is too similar. This is not true, as Scoop follows quite a different story - for example, the appearance of Ghosts. It inflicts no damage on Allen's career. Now, onto the movie itself.

We start off with the death of the celebrity journalist, Joe Strombel, a reporter who is the foundation of the movie, and is the main cause of its beginning and end. We cut to a scene of Joe Strombel, and a group of people on a mangy boat. When we cut to the boat piloted by Death, it seems Strombel has been there almost an hour, and he has met a secretary. This secretary hands the scoop to Joe Strombel, and Strombel jumps off the boat to return to earth as a ghost. Earlier, Sondra Pransky, a journalist in training, had made off with a Film Director, and had now gone to see a Magician called Splendido (Sid in cast, and Woody Allen in life). She is picked to be put in a disappearing box (the kind that makes you disappear), and through that, she meets the deceased Strombel. Strombel tells her he had a giant scoop on his hands, saying that the mysterious Tarot card killer was Peter Limen, Lord Limen's son. But then Strombel mysteriously disappears, and when Sid, (Splendido) opens the box, Sondra had also disappeared; I believe this was a by-product of Strombel's disappearance. Sondra Pransky then drags Sid out to look at Peter Limen, the person who was supposed by Strombel to be the killer. She pretends to drown, and by then has, at that moment, won over his heart. I shall not spoil any more of the movie, for the sake of the pre-viewers. I give the film of which I have reviewed a great big comedic 9/10. I say, a Jolly Good film.

Another Comedic Masterpiece - Thank You Woodie Allen!.......2006-12-12

Scoop is a refreshing return to the Woody Allen of yesteryear, going back to classics like The Sleeper, Take The Money and Run, and Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex, But Were Afraid To Ask. It is an intelligent, witty, compelling comedy full of personal crises, angst, and a dash of nihilism. It's slapstick, not high art. That is not a complaint, just a clarification.
By now, most of us who have seen more than one Woody Allen movie, are familiar with his usual themes: Jungian symbolism, human frailty, love, and above all else, life's rich pageant of absurdity. I could see how to some, this could be an old, tired formula, but I don't agree at all. In the hands of the genius who created it, it is still fresh, interesting, and relevant. With a brilliant cast starring Woody Allen, the smart and sexy Scarlet Johansen and the suave, debonair and deranged, Hugh Jackman, this movie is a winning formula.
Just as Bob Dylan's music has returned to the simplicity of its origins, so has Woody Allen come full circle. Like Dylan, this is not to lean on something tried and true, but to come back and perfect it. This movie is highly entertaining and extremely funny. So, stick some popcorn in the microwave and prepare to be thoroughly entertained.

The Scoop On This Soundtrack.......2006-07-29

This soundtrack is mostly just classical music, and I mean "Classical" music. Having Swan Lake Ballet Suites, this soundtrack is easy to relax to. Having in some tracks, strings and harp, this soundtrack is just classical music. There's nothing really special about this soundtrack, but if you're a big fan of classical music, then this is the soundtrack for you! Gives you a warm feeling as you listen to this.

one to own.......2002-10-12

Instead of writing a two sentence blurb about why such a CD is so "dancable" and perfect for a swing dancer, like most reviews in this genre are on Amazon (too bad, because some of them deserve more credit for their music, and some I'd stick in the bargain section of Sam Goody's)....

I've just found this band, in a search to find some balance between my love of jazz and lindy-hoppin' hobby. The collection spans from Brubeck to Duke to Ella and Satchmo and Getz. And then there's Louis Prima - that's where this fits in (it's obvious that he's mimicking the style, and a given in the redo of "Angelina Zoom Zoom"). Sure, it's great for swing dancing. But it's better than most of the "neo-Swing" stuff that's out there. Just listen to the sample clips and you'll hear for yourself. Want comparisons of other popular ones? Cherry Poppin' Daddies (quite a contrast, eh? This one is pretty shameful) Good ones include older Mighty Blue Kings (Uptown), Rhythm Rockets, and Lavay Smith. At the very least. You just have to find them. This is one of 'em. Cheers!

Love it! Love it! Love it!.......2001-07-20

Looking for something different than what's on the radio and this was perfect. . discovered it with my brother's recommendation. Don't know much about jazz, but I know what I like. It's upbeat and full of energy, with a 40s/50s retro vibe. Need to have two, one for the car and one for the home stereo.

Buy it now!.......1999-11-24

In short, a top notch album. Great covers of some old standards as well as quality new fare. If the world ends in a month you will regret not having listened to this CD.

fantastic!.......1999-06-30

I read an on-line review of this (elsewhere) that said to buy this album if it's the only one you but this year. I don't know if I'd go that far... but I would call it a must-have! They've got great energy, there's a good variety of stuff, the album is long (17 tracks) AND it's eminently danceable. So get it!

Ray Gelato Giants the best CD I have bought all year........1999-05-27

My husband took me to see Ray & The Giants in Milton keynes, England earlier in the year as a suprise. They are brilliant and have converted me to liking Jazz/Swing. This CD is a must buy.

Customer Reviews:

out of the cat litter - into the soul........2004-02-18

One of the finest editions of the 'cat litter series, and of the fantastically leftfield inertia label. Brilliant infusion of funked-up melodies, head-nodding beats and arm-thrusting basslines; production is exellent and the track order is sublime. Not much else to say - channel hopping (the new iPod advert!) one of the highlights, however it is not out of place in a very accomplished collection. Proper bo.

If you dig the Dope on Plastic or series, pick this up........2002-10-02

A nice collection of hip/trip-hop, funky-breaks, & electro-lounge toons with a slightly retro tone. Good companion to the Dope on Plastics & Electro-Lounge series. Nice glue tracks for djs or just a funkadelic listening session. Well worth the price... Cheers!
