Album Description

Kinky Boots is a likeable crowd pleaser (the capacity crowd at Sundance was laughing so hard it was hard to hear the next line). The incredible track listing follows the film touting legendary stars such as Nina Simone, David Bowie & James Brown. Also included on the soundtrack are onscreen performances by Chiwetel Ejiofor as well as classic Adrian Johnston's stellar compositions. This is a sing-a-long soundtrack in it's truest form!

Customer Reviews:

Great Soundtrack.......2007-03-09

I loved the movie so had to have the soundtrack. The soundtrack is EVEN BETTER!

Kinky Boots soundtrack is a hit!.......2007-02-26

If you liked the movie, you can't help but love the music. Even if you haven't seen it, you can enjoy Chiwetel Ejiofor's renditions of some classics, with a few new hits. "I want to be evil" is my new personal favorite. Forget how bizarre the title is. BUY THIS SOUNDTRACK!

Entertaining tunes for an entertaining movie.......2007-01-10

While some of the Adrian Johnston tracks might remind you of the atmosphere of the movie, and the classics are nice addition (fillers?), it is essentially Chiwetel Ejiofor's voice which you are seeking with this album. "Whatever Lola wants" or above all "I want to be evil" are guaranteed to plant a smile across your face and have you hum in no time. Not to omit Kristy MacColl's "In These Shoes" which could clearly be a fashion anthem.

Seven solid tracks out a full album is what I consider a good buy.

where is the missing milan medley???.......2006-09-14

the milan medley is only on the import version of the kinky boots soundtrack, and the track list above is the list for that version. its a great track, the highlight of the soundtrack and of the movie, and its worth the extra cash to buy the import version. boo to amazon for not correcting this error.

The Kinky Boots.......2006-08-02

Great soundtrack if you love sitting in "The House of Blues" if you know what I mean. Having some songs that have the word "shoes" in it, is quite easy to enjoy. The music is pretty cool and worth the listen to, not worth me listening to it constantly in my CD player, but quite fun to just listen to for a a couple of days in a row. This is highly recommended to you if you the "sit around" type of person and just "chill out" type of person.

1. Chiwetel Ejiofor "Whatever Lola Wants" 4/5
2. Kristy MacColl "In These Shoes" 5/5
3. Chiwetel Ejiofor "I Want To Be Evil" 3/5
4. Lyn Collins "Mr. Big Stuff" 5/5

Nobody will ever plan like Boots Randolph. He's the king. And this CD ois incredible.

A great CD.......2004-08-16

Boots Randolph is probably one of the best sax players on the planet. His articulation, tone, everything is awesome. Yakety Sax is a great song. One of my favorite Jazz songs. Get this CD if you like jazz or sax. Or just get it anyway.

Boots still knocks out the competition........2003-09-28

Boots is still the best Tenor Sax player alive! Kenny G does not even come close to him. Nobody has matched his incredible tone quality(quality of his sound). This was one of his best Cds. I hope I will get to see him perform live once again.

This CD was on a Christmas list for a family member, he said he truly enjoyed it. And it was so easy to find on Amazon.

What you see is what you get.......2006-11-15

Nice cd with some of the best of Boots. If you're a cw fan, you'll probably like it even more since several cuts are definitely cw.

Pretty good.......2006-07-17

It has the music the vynyl had although my memory has more depth of sound in the vynyl. I'd rather have it than not.

Lounge Sax!.......2004-11-23

Boy this CD brings back memories as it was one of my Mom's faves when growing up. Now that I'm an adult, I can appreciate it as great Lounge Music. It's kinda corny, nostalgic and fun. If this was repackaged as Lounge Music by Sony I think Boots would find a whole new and younger generation of listeners.

For Sax Lovers.......2004-01-25

If you're a sax lover, you probably want this album. I wanted a couple of songs from it, and ended up enjoying just that. An entire album of sax is a bit trying--at least for me. I really appreciate the up-tempo wailing songs, but the slower songs just reminded me that I was listening to a saxophone, which at times sounded too alone.

Album Description

"If the devil ever decided to go down to Nashville, no one would expect him to bring a sax. But if he did, Boots Randolph's name would be the first to pass his fiery lips. The veteran saxman plays one hell of a horn, if you'll pardon the expression." -- Las Vegas Sun

Legendary Nashville-based tenor saxophonist Boots Randolph presents his ZOHO debut, a collection of fourteen jazz classics. One of the most recognizable sounds in popular music, Randolph's sax can be heard on hits by Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash, and more.

Customer Reviews:

Superbly Boots.......2007-07-09

This CD contains an amazing variety of tunes and all played artistically. If you're a Boots fan, you have to have this recording! If you are not a Boots fan...shame on you! How fortunate that he recorded this one for us.

VERY Smooth, Classy Jazz Collection.......2007-06-30

Boots Randolph has been around for many years, his style of music may have changed over time, but here he reassures us with this fine CD that the tenets of fine jazz are alive and well. He is as accomplished on the tenor sax as anyone out there and his intuitive sense of rhythm and variation on tune lines is sensitive and so secure that listening to his music is as relaxing as an evening with old friends.

Randolph is backed by Roddy Smith, guitars, Steve Willets, piano, Tim Smith, bass, and Ray Von Rotz, drums and percussion. The interplay among these musical giants makes the finest of collaborative adventures. The songs interpreted are oldies but goodies including 'You'll never know', 'Round Midnight', 'Cry me a river', 'I'll be seeing you' and ten others. The sound is smooth, wry, fanciful when called for and melancholic for the blues works.

For an album of 'solid old-fashioned jazz' played by the gifted Boots Randolph and associates, this is hard to beat. It is refreshingly solid music making. Grady Harp, June 07

At 80 and he's still rocking !.......2007-06-14

His legendary name will always be associated with country music and to the smach hit music from Yakety Sax! (Sony), but he has long loved swinging jazz.
This album is composed entirely of classic jazz standards - what he calls "evergreens" - and none have appeared on any of his dozens of previous albums.
His history as a country star, or even before that, his experiences playing sax for singers like Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley, or Johnny Cash, would lead you to believe that he'd be a little adrift on the songs on this album, but you'd be wrong.
He does very well with them, and if his breathy style isn't to your taste, you still have to admire the sentiment he puts into every song.
On every song in this collection, you will hear a master musician deliver the melody in a way that only Boots can, and you will hear the most adventurous jazz solos that Boots has recorded to date.
He is in great form and shows amazing tecnique and skills.
Pianist Steve Willets and guitarist Roddy Smith have solo space and do a great job, but Boots is the true star!
This is a delight of an album, one of his best ever.
You will be positively impressed!
My favourite tracks are "I'll Be Seeing You", "'Round Midnight" and "L-O-V-E".

Novelist Cormac McCarthy's literary vision of the wild west is given wide-screen treatment by maverick director Billy Bob Thornton and a cast that includes Matt Damon, Penelope Cruz, and Bruce Dern. Professional country music journeyman Marty Stuart has performed with father-in-law Johnny Cash, Earl Scruggs, and Doc Watson, in addition to a successful solo career. In his soundtrack scoring debut, he provides short, meditative instrumental pieces that are subtly explosive--rife as they are with strains of old-school country and bluegrass. Cinematic strings and orchestral percussion add a welcome menacing edge, augmenting the rustic approach without crossing over into a compromised "countrypolitan" sound. If anything, it might be nice to hear these themes extended. As it stands, the 23 listed tracks are covered in a little under 50 minutes, with many of the cuts barely lasting more than a minute or two. They stand as a new genre of cinematic country minimalism. --Rob O'Connor

Customer Reviews:

Great western soundtrack.......2004-02-28

This is a must buy for fans of western soundtracks.It mixes beautifully symphonic music with Guitar music and spices it up all together with a south of the border flavor. Haunting music that will make you want to never take it out of your cd changer. It also
Features two vocal pieces, the first a spanish song sung by the very talented Raul Malo of the country group the mavericks, the second song is a beautiful ballad sung by Marty Stuart. Though I never owned any cd's of Marty Stuart he earns my respect with composing this film score.(cowboy hats off to you Mr.Stuart)

Truly Incredible.......2003-03-12

This album is a masterpiece. Within the first strums of the guitar, you feel as though you are among the southwestern hills. It has immediately become one of my favorites of all-time. The songs are filled with beautiful imagery, enchanting tunes, and haunting melodies. The shortness of the songs in unnoticable, as each song blends into the next, and the album itself serves as one epic journey. It is not meant to be listened to a song at a time, but as a whole. As I said, it is truly incredible. I would recommend it to absolutely anyone.

Started playing the sax in 1944. To this day, Boots is my favorite and I've found no one (certainly incluing me) who can come close to matching his work. All of his CDs are incredible.

It doesn't get any better than Boots!!!.......2006-12-15

Kenny G., sit down and take some lessons from a true musician! Boots is the best. Buy this CD and let 'Yakety Sax' take you away. Pick up a Donna Fargo CD while you're at it. The two compliment eachother perfectly and can set the perfect mood for a romantic eavening!

Album Description

In the early 1970s, glam rock band Slade dominated the British charts with 17 Top 20 hits, including six at #1. While their star didn't soar as high in the States, the band wasn't completely overlooked. Covers of "Cum On Feel The Noize" and "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" by '80s rock band Quiet Riot brought Slade renewed interest. Other bands followed suit with covers by groups as disparate as Oasis, The Runaways and Wonderstuff. Get Your Boots On - The Best Of Slade marks the first time this legendary group sees a domestic greatest hits collection.

• Slade had a total of 17 Top 20 hits in the UK.

• Slade's songs have been covered by everyone from Oasis to the Runaways but none so familiar in the U.S. as Quiet Riot's hit with "Cum On Feel The Noize" and the hit "Mama Weer All Crazee Now."

• Slade's own U.S. chart success peaked in 1984 with their album Keep Your Hands Off My Power Supply and the Top 40 singles "My, Oh My" and "Run, Runaway."

Customer Reviews:

Could be a lot better.......2006-11-23

Essentially this collection is Greatest hits through 1975 plus the two American top 40 singles from 1983 slapped on the end. If you like Slade, then obviously this collection is very much incomplete but if you use this CD to get into Slade, then you will probably import some of their other Cd's anyway. The CD is only 60 minutes long so there were lots of missed opportunities to include other music released after 1975 or even include some choice album cuts from the early 1970's. Had I a chance to order this again, I would opt for importing one of the more complete greatest hits collections or gone after the box set. Too bad that Slade Cd's are so hard to find in the US. Those comments aside, the music on the CD is terrific.

ROCK.......2006-11-09

This album is GREAT! I knew I liked Slade, but i hadn't heard some of these songs before. This album made me realize how amazing this band was. Literally. I had no idea these guys were so good.

Great No Frills Rock.......2006-03-15

I had learned about Slade in the early '70's by reading Circus magazine as a kid but never heard them on the radio and couldn't find one of their records. Finally I saw Sladest, bought it and turned all my friends on to it. No big guitar solos, just great fun rock and roll filled with hooks that keep these songs swirling around your brain long after the stereo is turned off. I remember finally seeing them on one of those late night In Concert type of shows and thought they looked very bubblegum with the highest platform boots I had seen. I never liked Quiet Riot and their versions of Slade songs don't have the fun of the originals.

Slayed by Slade.......2006-02-17

Unlike many 'best of'albums, "Get Yer Boots On" is a true compilation of the bands best tracks. There's no rubbish included to make up the numbers on this album, it's all fantasstic Slade hits. It's fast moving and sure to get you dancing or moving to the beat.

Big Bad Kev; - Dusty Radio, Coober Pedy Australia.

Brings it all back (Feel the Noize!).......2006-02-06

A good compilation of (some of) Slade's singles. Slade were a great band based on the fundamental notions of energy, noise, excitement and fun, and it comes through in many of the tracks, particularly the mid-1970s material. Interestingly, the lyrics are able to sketch out a story with very few words (e.g. "G'buy T' Jane"), which beats a lot of rap today.

Only 4 stars because there's only an hour of music on the CD, so 20 minutes is left blank. There was certainly other excellent music that could have been included, not necessarily singles. Sometimes really good tracks are on the albums, yet still get airplay and should go on a compilation (Queen's "Tie Your Mother Down" being but one example). Perhaps it's cut back for the US market (alas).

If you enjoy Rock 'n' Roll with energy and fun, you will probably like this CD a lot.
