If one's notion of "world music" promises a touch of the exotic and indigenous, often overlooked is the fact that the influence of western pop music has seeped into every corner of the globe, creating a hybrid that's often more than merely the sum of its influences. Theater vet Brightman steps into that pan-cultural hall of mirrors here, wedding her fascination with the music and rhythms of the "forbidden places" (the title's Arabic meaning) of the Middle East to her own oft ethereal vocal charms and rock-solid sense of drama. And if the diva's equally sound crossover sensibilities (and that of longtime producer Frank Peterson) sometimes mire it in familiar world-beat pastiche, Brightman's charmed muse manages some transcendent moments nonetheless. Her musical borrowings (Borodin for the title track; Puccini's *Madame Butterfly* for "It's a Beautiful Day") are as compelling as her choice of collaborators: classical violin star Nigel Kennedy and Iraqi vocalist Kadim Al Sahir add compelling touches to the weary timeliness of "The War is Over." The musical influences range from Europe across the Mediterranean and as far East as the Indian roots of "Bollywood" composer A.R. Rahman's "The Journey Home" and Brightman's own "You Take My Breath Away" to evocative recastings of the emblematic standards "Stranger in Paradise" and Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World," while ex-Killing Joke keyboardist Jaz Coleman provides the savory East-meets-West orchestrations that ensure Brightman's star turns the seamless foundations they deserve. --Jerry McCulley

4 out of 5 stars New to Sarah Brightman.......2007-03-12

I'm very new to Sarah brightman's music and I enjoy this CD. I think she has an amazing voice. Very talented young woman and this cd was very relaxing and joyful to listen to. I like to learn and heard more from Sarah Brightman.

3 out of 5 stars Stranger in Paradise - More Like Stranger in a Lost Cause.......2006-12-30

I'm not throughly pleased with this album! This CD is only good if you know how to dance in a Middle-Easters fashion. About half of each track is dominated by all orchestrations and no Sarah. Plus, Pop-Sarah isn't really for me. I much prefer the Classical-Sarah. Some of the tracks are okay, like "Harem", "The Journey Home", "Beautiful", and "Stranger in Paradise". Really, this is a good CD for your collection, but I wouldn't listen to it on a 24/7 basis.

5 out of 5 stars No voice like hers in the world.......2006-10-01

I own this cd. I saw her in person at the "Harem" concert. Never had I heard or seen any voice like this. What a performer, best concert I'd ever seen. Beautiful voice, I can never get enough of Sarah Brightman's music. It is so comforting at times. I have all her music and this cd makes you wonder, how can she top this? Thank you Sarah Brightman for giving us your beautiful gift of music.

5 out of 5 stars Brilliant Brightman, Her best CD........2006-09-18

Sarah is just the best, she can hit any note and her individuality shines on this CD. She sings "The Journey Home" from the musical Bombay Dreams and her voice just soars. "Harem", "Mysterious Ways" and "You Take My Breah Away" are songs that take me to dreamland. Amazing! A master piece!

Quick as lightening ship and this is my favorite CD ever!!!

5 out of 5 stars BUY THE REMASTERED VERSION INSTEAD.......2006-11-06

Just wanted to point out that you should buy the remastered version of this album, which has been released as a twofer with "Souvenirs", the only albums of his that have been remastered so far. I urge you to support this release instead of buying the old non-remastered versions. It's high time all of Dan's old albums get remastered. After all, this is 2006!

4 out of 5 stars Amazing Album, But This Edition Is A Significant Remix.......2006-06-13

From the other reviews here, it appears that most people are not aware that this is a significant remix, & not at all the same version that was released on vinyl. Please see my review of the 2006 UK BGO Remastered Edition which uses the original mix for more details on this.

4 out of 5 stars Home Free.......2006-01-28

I much prefer Dan Fogelberg's music on vinyl records instead of cd. I've gotten numerous of his albums on 33 rpm vinyl and find them to have a much better and more original sound than the cd's. This particular album is great, with the track "To The Morning" my personal favorite. It's a beautiful song about not wanting to wake up. "It's going to be a day, there is really no way to say no to the morning." Unfortunately, the cd doesn't seem to do justice to any of Dan's work. I highly recommend finding this album and the Netherlands album on vinyl. It'll be well worth it.

5 out of 5 stars A pleasire for the ears.......2006-01-10

I first bought this album on vynal 20yrs ago, Dan's voice has such a wonderful tenor range. His songs flow like honey to the ears. There is not a bad song in the lot all are great. This is probaly his best. I highly recmond it

I think that Basil Poledouris has composed another wonderful score for another Free Willy film. I wish more of his music could have been heard. I love his score. The rest of the songs are ok, and I think Michael Jackson's Childhood is no where near as good as Will You Be There. Thank you.

5 out of 5 stars Let freedom ring!.......2003-08-31

I have been a fan of Wayne Watson's ever since his 1987 breakthrough hit "Watercolour Ponies" (if you have never heard this song and you are a parent, you need to hear it). But as popular as that song was, most Wayne Watson fans will tell you that his best album ever was the 1990 release "Home Free."

The title track from this album was written out of the pain Wayne felt from the soon to be death of a close friend of his, Sandra Kirkham. Although everyone around her was praying for her complete recovery, God opted to call her home. The song "Home Free" deals with the conflict that is inherent in all of us: allowing God's will to be done even when it hurts.

A good companion to the title song is "When God's People Pray," a reminder of what all can happen when God answers our prayers.

There are many, many more songs on this album that should be taken to heart. And each one will move your heart towards God if you will let it.

This album is a must have for not only Wayne Watson fans, but soon-to-be Wayne Watson fans.

5 out of 5 stars Help for the Living who are Hurting.......2003-07-01

In response to the first review I read, I first heard this song when my then 3 year old brother was diagnosed with a brain tumor. My mother played it over and over making it her prayer that God's will be done - in life and in death. It was a unique source of hope and strength that God was there, with us, in the midst of everything - no matter what.

My brother just turned 15 in 2003.

5 out of 5 stars Brings Peace to Those Dying and Those Living.......2001-07-27

My sister was dying from a brain tumor and we were returning from a fishing trip, that we knew would be her last. When she heard Wayne Watson's song Home Free she let us know that she wanted to hear it again and again. It made her feel better for herself and for us. She asked us to have someone sing it at her funeral. There is no better song to help heal the greiving. My family listens to it often and I always give this CD to anyone I know who is dealing with the pain of losing someone to an illness. We love the WHOLE album.

5 out of 5 stars Becky (a huge fan of Wayne Watson's!).......1999-12-04

I had the WONDERFUL opportunity to hear Wayne perform "Home Free" for the first time in public. It was when his friend was still in alive. (That he had wrote this song about.) (Just after that concert, he had found out she was near the end, or had passed away... I don't remember which.) After I heard that, it just made that night even more memorable! If you're not sure which Wayne Watson cd to start with, this would be the one! (Thought I like all of them!) Enjoy and God Bless! P.S. If you'd like to hear about another memorable evening I had "with" Wayne Watson, feel free to email me! (I had the priveledge of interviewing him! ) :-}

    3 out of 5 stars Sound is excellent, except for the dropouts.......2007-06-22

    I agree with the opinion that the sound of these remasters is generally excellent. However, nobody has mentioned the frequent dropouts that occur during "The River", the last track on "Home Free". These dropouts occur in the left channel, starting at about 3:30 and continuing for a full minute, making this track unlistenable on headphones. I'm shocked that BGO would release this track in such poor condition. I would've given this release five stars, but the dropouts cripple an otherwise excellent remaster.

    5 out of 5 stars THANK YOU, BGO RECORDS!.......2006-08-23

    The one reviewer, who complains about the sound quality of this new rerelease obviously hasn't listened to the old, non-remastered cd versions in a long time. Songs such as "Be On Your Way" and "Hickory Grove" definitely have a fuller sound, and if you listen to the drum intro to the wonderful "Illinois" and compare it to the previous versions, even the remastered one on the 1997 "Portrait" box set, you'll no longer doubt the improved sound quality. These are among Dan Fogelberg's very best albums, so this is a great package. I really hope Bgo Records will continue to rerelease Dan's old records. I can't wait for my all-time favorite album ("Nether Lands")to be remastered. Love ya, Dan.

    3 out of 5 stars Dan' Remasters.......2006-08-07

    Disappointing is the best way of describing this release. The mastering of these to great albums just does not cut it. Sure there is a marginal improvement on "Souvenirs" but "Home Free" is only as good and the late eighties release. The sleave notes or rubbish. I had high hopes for this release given the brilliance of the albums and therefore must rate it lower not for the content but the mastering. BGO have made much better efforts than this i.e. Dory Previn. If you have the older recordings don't bother if you don't the albums are worth getting. The mastering refers to "digital remastering of Original tape" as opposed to the more common Remaster from "Original Master Tapes" which may give an insight as to the lack of improvement.

    5 out of 5 stars an essential remaster.......2006-07-18

    i agree with the previous reviewer. the sound improvement is excellent. serious dan fans have waited 20 years for these cds to be upgraded. hopefully, all of dan's cd will get remastered, at least thru "the innocent age". thanks to bgo records.

    5 out of 5 stars An Absolute Masterpiece.......2006-06-13

    There are 3 main reasons why I think is an amazing reissue:

    1. Both albums are masterpieces. In my late teens, these were on my record & cassette players constantly. In my world, Dan's first 4 (& really his first 6) albums are amongst the best singer-songwriter records ever made.

    2. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first cd remaster of Souvenirs anywhere in the world. The US cd is from the beginning of the cd age, & has mediocre sound.

    3. Now the most exciting news: they used the original mix for Home Free & did a great remastering! The USA Home Free cd was significantly remixed & quite different then the original album. I suspect the reason for this is that the original mix tended to sound muddy on both vinyl & early cd; the drum sound is especially muffled. The USA CD Remix was actually very well done, but it wasn't the same album many of us came to know & love. Some examples - The organ riff at the end of Livin' In the Country was mostly missing, the bass in the River was no longer the lead instrument, & the harpsichord in To The Morning was changed from background to being the main instrument in the mix.

    While the original mix for Home Free was a bit muddy, this is one of a very select few cd's I've heard that sounds better then the vinyl version, & I even had a Japanese audiophile pressing. With this remaster I can still hear the sonic shortcomings, but they're minimized, & the album I dearly love has been restored with best sound ever.

    The liner notes state that if this sells well, BGO will likely remaster more of Dan's catalog. If you're a Fogelberg fan, buy this so we get more! I'd love to see a follow up of Captured Angel & Netherlands.

    Boskovsky's encyclopedic collection with the Vienna Philharmonic, recorded between 1957 and 1976, is as close to definitive as one is likely to get. There was a special camaraderie between Boskovsky and the Philharmonic--he was a member of the orchestra's violin section for 37 years and conducted their New Year's Day concerts from 1955 until 1979. There was also a special empathy that these performers, as custodians of a tradition going back to its origins, felt for the music of the Strauss family. It comes across quite wonderfully on these mid-price CDs, which have been painstakingly remastered for an edition every collector should have. --Ted Libbey

    5 out of 5 stars Superb collection.......2006-03-07

    If you love or are just curious about the music of Vienna's Strauss family, this is the box set for you. You need look no further. Willi Boskovsky and the Vienna Philharmonic set the standards for the performance of these sublime waltzes, polkas and marches. The sound is fine, too, even though the recordings are not new. This is, quite simply, a magnificent set. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

    5 out of 5 stars Boskovsky and the Strauss Family of Vienna........2003-06-12

    A long series of Strauss music recordings conducted by Willi Boskovsky provides the contents of this slender, super-compact box of 6 CDs. Those who collected the original issues should check the contents before jettisoning them, because not everything has been reissued here. I especially regret that the vocal version of "An der schönen blauen Donau" has been omitted.

    No combination has ever excelled Willi Boskovsky and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra in performing this repertoire. Although the waltzes, polkas, quadrilles, marches and overtures were performed over and over again by these musicians, there is never a hint of workaday routine or staleness to be heard here. Everything seems to unfold naturally. Each item's inherent character is displayed. Tiny nuances and felicities of phrasing and a balance that favors the melody and reduces the accompaniment make these performances inimitable. The performance of "Morgenblätter" seems to provide a tad more excitement and impact than the other 85 items.

    The recordings were made between 1960 and 1976. They are studio recordings, not deriving from the famous New Year concerts, and all but the few items from the very earliest year provide excellent sound.

    5 out of 5 stars A very good CD to buy.......2005-07-06

    I have bought many CD regarding American patriotic songs but it is the one that I prefer. The songs are sung in a very classic way and so, there are easy to listen. Jon English as a tenor gives an excellent performance. On the piano, Rob Carriker gives also an excellent performance; he does not try to cover the voice of Jon English but just to support his voice. So, Jon English and Rob Carriker form a very fine duo and the quality of recording is excellent. The choice of songs is also excellent. I strongly recommend this CD.

    5 out of 5 stars What an Excellent Work of Art!.......2002-08-30

    John English has a booming and resounding voice. Well suited for the rough and tough songs of our countries historic wars. It is an excellent buy, and I recommend it to any fans of great songs and American historics!

    5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2002-08-30

    This cd is excellent! I reccomend it to everyone!! Jonathon English has got an amazing voice!

    5 out of 5 stars What A Blast - A Fun and Inspiring CD.......2002-07-30

    I have to admit - I didn't know what I'd be getting when I bought this album. I love Americana and have known some of these songs all my life: K-K-K-Katy, Keep the Home-Fires Burning, and Tenting on the Old Camp Ground. Others that are listed I had never heard before: The Soldier's Tear, When Alexander Takes His Ragtime Band to France, and the very funny Captain Jinks! From first to last I found this CD a joy to hear. Jon English has a beautiful voice, and he sings with such clarity that you can understand every word! There are songs that will get your feet taping, and others that will bring a tear to your eye. The chorus is quite obviously not a professional choir, and that's all the better! They sing with an infectious energy and spirit that'll make you want to sing along. Add into that the horns, flute and percussion and this album becomes very pleasant experience. This is one of the best CD's I've heard in a long time, and I heartily recommend it.
