5 out of 5 stars Marvellous!.......2005-11-26

I don't play violin, and I can't even read music, but as a classical music amateur I find this CD outstanding. Even an incompetent like myself can easily understand why Perlman is regarded as one of the greates violinists ever. This is a marvellous collection of pieces. The rendition of "Chanson Russe" by itself is, in my opinion, worth more than the price of the CD. If you listen to the audio samples on Amazon's pages and you like violin you will surely understand why I like this CD so much. I am grateful to People like Perlman, who make this world a better place to live in.

5 out of 5 stars The best violinist ever!.......2001-01-26

All I can say to this CD is it's the best I've ever heard. In this CD, Itzhak Perlman truly demonstrates his best performances of the past years. I have always been a great admirer of Perlman, but since I own this CD, it's all I've listened to for the past three months. I myself play the violin and Perlman has become an inspiration to me, almost a musical idol. For any of those violinists out there, especially young musicians, who don't feel any excitement about playing the violin, listen to this CD and I promise you, you will strive to being able to play like this man does. He is truly the best musician I've ever known.

5 out of 5 stars Fine Beethoven Chamber Works.......2007-07-12

These CDs are discs 3 & 4 of the complete piano trios of Beethoven. They were recorded from 1979 to 1984, and remastered and re-issued on EMI classics in 2004; I am surprised that this is the first review posted on Amazon.
The major works on these CDs are the later trios, opus 70 no 1, "Ghost", opus 70 no 2, and opus 97,"Archduke", dedicated to Beethoven's friend, pupil and benefactor the Archduke Rudfolf. This, opus 97, is probably the best trio sonata, but some of Schubert's come close. These later trios are more interesting as the cello is a full member of the group, no longer restricted to tagging along with the left hand of the pianist.
The players are Vladimir Ashkenazy on piano, Itzhak Perlman on violin and Lynn Harrell on cello. The first two are big names from the 1980s, and Harrell is a first class player, if much less well known. So you would expect a first class performance, and that's what you get. Ashkenazy leads but never dominates, the performace is light and airy, precise, often delicate, and joyful. It's the best "Archduke" I have heard, and that is the one you will come back to time
When you consider the budget price it has to get 5 stars.

5 out of 5 stars The Genesis.......2006-08-23

Great primer on the early days of instrumental rock. I had the cassette version years ago and the CD has additional tracks. Highly recommended

5 out of 5 stars Woo hoo!.......2005-01-30

This is a great collection of instrumental rock and roll classics from the 1950s. Most of these songs were big hits, and the few that weren't hits should have been hits. This is just about the perfect compilation of '50s rock instrumentals. Anyway, I can't think of anything that they left out. Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars History repeats itself.......2004-04-25

When I saw the song list for this CD I was blown away!
It looked exactly like a stack of 45's I remembered having
on my first record changer way back in pre-historic times.
So naturally, since half of them have been have been stolen,
broken, or played to death, I had to have this CD.
I was not disappointed. You won't be either, especially if you
want to hear what rock and roll was like besides the "big names".
The Rhino booklet that is included is very informative about the songs as well as the era.

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Collection.......2003-09-27

Someone has put together the most memorable instrumental classic rock tunes of the decade. The quality is excellent and, with a good sound system, you can rock your world like you never could in the 50's.

4 out of 5 stars Why I bought it........2002-01-17

I bought because Volumes I and II because they contained some fabulous hits from my pre-teen and teenager days. At Amazon.com, I also did not have to buy the entire set of 5 volumes; like I would have to buy from another vendor.

5 out of 5 stars King Cole Trio, No Greater Small Jazz Band.......2006-03-04

"Vocal Classics, Volume 1" by the King Cole Trio documents along with "Instrumental Classics" that the Trio was always at its best. It is the equivalent of Ted Williams hitting .406 in 1941, Jim Brown gaining 6 yards a carry every time he touched the ball, Wilt Chamberlain averaging 50.4 points and 25.4 rebounds in 1961-1962 and Wayne Gretzky scoring over 200 points in four out of five seasons.

Most of these songs are great art. "All For You" could have been left off this CD album since it was recorded for Excelsior Records in 1942 before the Trio recorded for Capitol Records as well as "How Does It Feel" since it was never released commercially until 1991 when it was part of Mosaic Records box set entitled "The Complete Capitol Recordings of the King Cole Trio." Also the other version of "Embraceable You", which was released in 1944 on the first King Cole Trio album should have been included in lieu of the V-Disc version. A better version of "What Can I Say After I Say I'm Sorry" was the Trio's 1946 master that was actually commercially released in 1946 on "King Cole Trio, Volume 2" album. The 1945 version was not released the first time until 1955. Capitol Records would have served the fan better by issuing in this package 1946 recording rather the 1945. In my opinion "I Can't See For Lookin' " is more of a classic than "All For You," this version of "What Can I Say After I Say I'm Sorry" and "How Does It Feel" and should have been included instead. And certainly "The Christmas Song" by Robert Wells and Mel Torme recorded by the Trio in 1946 with a string choir is more of a classic than these three songs and should have been part of the release.

The greatest thing about this album is it exclusively consists of what Will Friedwald called the greatest edition of the King Cole Trio (Trio Leader Nat Cole at the piano and doing the vocals, Oscar Moore, guitar and Johnny Miller, bass). No other edition before Miller's arrival in 1942 and Moore's leaving in 1947 ever equalled what these three men accomplished. Other editions of the Trio pale in comparison. Moore as a guitarist and Miller as a bassist, besides being great jazz players, could also sing in tight harmony with Cole as you will hear on Cole's and Irving Mills' composition entitled "Straighten Up And Fly Right." It is unfortunate that two other classic vocals by all three men were not included in the album, Cole's "It Is Better To Be By Yourself" and Ella Fitzgerald's "Oh But I Do." Besides being a great pianist and vocalist, Cole was a phenomenal leader and arranger when he led the King Cole Trio. The inferior quality of "All For You," "What Can I Say After I Say I'm Sorry," and "How Does It Feel" is more than compensated by superior treatment that they provide on the other nineteen selections. It is due in no small measure to Cole's arranging skills. It is his talent as an arranger that makes this a classic album as it is also true of the "Instrumental Classics" album by the King Cole Trio.

I have been a fan of the King Cole Trio since 1963 when I was fourteen years old. Please enjoy this music by a band that was incomparable.

5 out of 5 stars The Best of Nat King Cole Trio Volums 1&2.......2005-09-01

This is a mello, jazzy wonderful reminder of the muscial time period in which it originated and also a testament to the
enduring legacy of Nat Cole. This material is as pleasing today as I'm sure it was 50 years ago. A wonderful historical reminder of the time, but still fresh and entertaining.

5 out of 5 stars Music to neck and drink Martinis by.......2003-10-09

Everything else has been said about this music that needs to be said - hard to be nostalgic for something you weren't around for (I'm only 26, for cryin' out loud) but good grief! The idea that this was some of the pop music enjoyed by millions - this elegant, sophisticated, intimate music - only underscores the aridity of all of the stuff that makes Billboard nowadays. Cole's
art was above all an art of subtely, of small touches that add up to a distinct and unmistakeable whole - much as the small, decisive brushstrokes of Monet yielded those iconic, idyllic rivers and bridges. Listen to how Cole phrases the penultimate line of "I'm Thru With Love" , that fractional hesitation, that delicate caesura between "For I must have you" and "or no one",
and you'll see what I mean. For a romantic evening indoors on a cold winter night, look no further than the Trio for exactly the right mood. (The instrumental stuff is equally fine too, by the way - he was an amazing piano player. Red Garland didn't come out of nowhere, you know.)

5 out of 5 stars Silky Smooth.......2001-11-28

This is smooth jazz at its finest--not the contemporary non-jazz that usurped that name-- but the light, feathery, and unmistakably jazz work of early Nat Cole. Smooth as silk, really, he has a warm, easy-going, and mellifluous voice (yet it's never bland). While some of the songs are strictly for fun (the great "The Frim Fram Sauce" and the less memorable "But She's My Buddy's Chick") he adds a bit more gravitas to such ballads as "Sweet Lorraine" and lays blue shadings onto "Embraceable You."

The comping is wonderful, a classic trio sound with Johnny Miller's beautifully articulated bass, and Oscar Moore's versatile guitar. At times, Moore coaxes a ukulele sound out of his instrument; other times he has an incandescent sound that recalls Django Reinhardt. The trio also sings together: "Straighten Up and Fly Right " is like a Do-Wop jazz song. Cole's piano is the height of insouciance, a soft but always swinging style that gets the most out of the minimum. Other highlights include the signature "Route 66," "I'm Thru with Love," "Come to Baby, Do", and "(I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons."

This is not the "popular" (and over-produced, in my opinion) Cole of latter years ("Lazy Hazy Days of Summer," "Ramblin' Rose," etc.) but a man firmly rooted in jazz. It's been said by many that his later vocal success overshadows the innovations and influence he showed as a young pianist. (For instrumentals only, I recommend his "Penthouse Serenade"). This album gives you both Cole's voice and piano in the great Cole sans-drummer trio; an excellent selection of songs played by a master, backed with empathy and basking in warmth.

5 out of 5 stars Smooth as silk..........2001-09-19

Everyone knows of Nat King Cole's "pop" recordings - "Mona Lisa", "Too Young", "The Christmas Song" but to me the real treasure lies in these recordings (and those on the companion CD covering 1947 - 1950).

Cole is an incredible jazz pianist with a light and gently swinging style. Add to that Oscar Moore on guitar and Johnny Miller on bass and you've got a tight ensemble delivering 22 wonderful performances. The tracks range from classic ballads ("Embraceable You", "(I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons") to fun novelty numbers ("The Frim Fram Sauce", "But She's My Buddy's Chick"). Of course you add Cole's smooth vocals to these wonderful backing arrangements and you've got a great collection.

Considering the age of these recording and the quiet nature of the material - even when the trio swings they swing "softly" - there is some hiss noticeable throughout but in general these recordings have been nicely "cleaned up" and restored.

(In addition to the two vocal collections there is a third strictly instrumental disc which is also very good but when you put on Nat King Cole don't you want to hear that voice?)

First you have to like Bartok. Not everyone enjoys the 20th century extention of classical music. If you do like Bartok and want to hear his violin compositions - then buy this CD and hear a true master at work.

5 out of 5 stars Bedroom Classics.......2007-01-11

This album is perfect with the inimitable style of Teddy's soothing notes washing over the entire room when he's singing.

5 out of 5 stars Bedroom Classics, Vol. 1 .......2006-02-01

5 out of 5 stars The best love songs in my time........2004-12-29

Words cannot adequately describe the feeling i get when i listen to these bedroom classics.Absolutely beautiful incredibly romantic music of the highest quality.My favorite track is #9 in my time it brings emotional goose bumps all over me.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome bedroom collection........2004-02-08

I am a great Teddy Pendergrass fan I have all of the cds and whatever dvd is available. For this particular cd it is truly one for the bedroom. Sexy, Sexy just for cuddling with your special someone. Purchase and you will not be sorry, light some candles and just listen and soothe your mind to the greatest voice that ever lived. Love you Teddy Pendergrass and the compilation is truly awesome and fantastic. This man can sing now doubt about it.

4 out of 5 stars The Elektra years+2 ringers.......2004-01-31

It's hard to believe it took until 2004 for somebody to anthologize Teddy's stay at Elektra. After his auto accident, Pendergrass left Philadelphia International and signed with Elektra. 14 of the 16 songs on this CD are from that era and it covers the years 84-93. Rhino throws in 2 Philly years ringers: "Close The Door" and "Turn Off The Lights" to back up their title concept. Besides the R&B hits, this also covers some album tracks, and is a decent look at his Elektra stint. Some people say this era wasn't as strong as the Philly years, but there's enough great songs here like "Joy" and "You're My Choice Tonight" (the latter written and Produced by Luther Vandross), as well as his last R&B #1 as of 2004, "It Should've Been You", to refute that claim. There's also one song that stands with the 2 ringers here, "Love 4/2" that's as good as anything Teddy has ever recorded. The only weak link on this CD are the liner notes. A useless 5 page reminiscece by a Tracy H. New that offers no insight into Teddy's career or his Elektra years. If you have his Greatest Hits CD or the Anthology CD than this is a must have for your collection.

4 out of 5 stars floyd is underrated.......2007-01-31

A lot of my musician friends tend to laugh a little when i say that Floyd Cramer is cool. But he is, and this sweet little gospel record is ample proof. He plays the songs straight, allowing their simple beauty to shine through, uncluttered. It is especially nice to hear him solo, without a band or fancy arrangements.

5 out of 5 stars Prepare to Be Mesmerized .......2006-09-23

I was given this album by a friend. I'm not a connoisseur of international music, but I must say I was instantly captivated by this musical compilation. The songs have a catchy, relaxing quality to them.

5 out of 5 stars still love it after 15+ years.......2006-03-29

I bought the original about 15 years ago in cassette tape form
(yeah, I am getting older:). Even though I agree that Byrnes should have updated it with younger and more current artists, these classic songs still move me.

5 out of 5 stars This disc introduced me to Brazil.......2006-03-16

What a great CD. I have all of Byrnes Brazilian discs and wish he would issue more. He really captured what makes Brazilian music great with his first three discs in this series. Still, this one is really special. The fourth and fifth disc in this series are dedicated to the artist Tom Ze who is brilliant in his own weird way. This first disc makes you just want to dance all over your living room. I wish Byrne would release more. Of course I now have a lot of the cds by the original artists, but this is the one that hooked me. Buy and enjoy.

4 out of 5 stars Not a New CD.......2005-03-29

Why continue to recycle a CD that is now roughly sixteen years out of date? Yes, it is a great compilation, or, at least, it was in 1989, but times have changed. Maybe somebody should talk Byrne into updating this CD once again, as he did in 1999, with a new compilation or two or six. There are about a score of styles and literally dozens of artists in Brazil who deserve recognition for the music that they are making now. And it is somehow odd that while there is not exactly a shortage of Brazilian compilations out there, most of those efforts have a regretable tendency to recycle yesterday's headliners. How about a fresh compilation that includes such diverse artists as Djavan, Cibelle, Autoramas, Silvia Torres, Monica Salmaso, Carlinhos Brown, Vinicius Cantuaria, Helena, Trio Da Paz, Charlie Brown Jr, Rita Ribeiro, Fernanda Porto, Seu Jorge, and about, oh, fifty others. All are interesting artists making incredible music, and all are making that great music in the 21st century.

5 out of 5 stars one of my desert island CDs.......2004-10-12

I've owned this CD for over ten years and it remains one of my favorites. The Brazilian music featured here manages to be both instantly accessable and yet at the same time exotic and new, from the stripped-down funkiness of "Ponta de Lança Africano" to the majestic "Equatorial" to the melancholy harmonies on "Fio Maravilha." I suppose the reason for this is the fact that these artists grew up immersed in their rich musical traditions, but at the same time they were exposed to the music of the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, James Brown, etc. I don't like most of what falls under the "world music" umbrella, but this collection really hits the spot for me.

Also worth mentioning are the excellent liner notes and bilingual lyrics. Honestly, my only complaint is that this CD inspired me to go out and look for more Brazilian music but I've been unable to find anything else that I loved as much as this.
