5 out of 5 stars One of the best of the seventies!.......2007-06-14

This is one of the best of the super seventies albums and a little-recognized classic. Supertramp had a unique and instantly recognizable style that is very appealing if you like complex arrangements, solid but detailed melodies, all built around superb keyboard playing. If all you know are the hits from "Breakfast in America", you really don't know Supertramp and probably dismiss them as a trivial band known for simple pop songs. This CD will quickly dispell this notion and deserves repeated listening.

5 out of 5 stars good service.......2007-05-19

The CD promptly arrived in the mail. It was new and in the wrapper, as indicated in the product description. Very satisfied.

4 out of 5 stars Congratulations! You just found something wonderful!.......2007-03-07

I'm sure you are familiar with Supertramp from Breakfast In America or possibly Crime Of The Century (both most have albums). Well, this CD is right up there as being one of the greatest Supertramp recordings. For my money, Supertramp was on fire during these years and was pumping out some seriously good music. Fool's Overture - turn it up, lay back and be amazed!

4 out of 5 stars 4.2 CLASSIC.......2007-03-03

This is a great CD. featuring 2 of the BEST songs ever written ('Give a Little Bit' and 'Even in the quietest..). Lyrically that song is gorgeous! Not to mention the 11 minute opus 'Fools Overture' (which i personally think sounds better on 'Paris')... This is a cd with songs that will never get old.. Too bad people forgot how to write good music anymore. Music with passion and feel.. Supertramp delivered always!! especially in the '70's!! Thanks for the great music Davies/Hodgson..

5 out of 5 stars Great Work.......2007-01-14

This is the other Supertamp cd (besides their ace Crime of the Century)that is a must for any classic rock collection. It is also worthy of five stars, but slightly below my ranking on the aforementioned Crime of the Century.

4 out of 5 stars Opera for Aficianados as well as Newbies.......2007-06-11

If you are looking for peaceful, beautiful music this is for you. It is a delightful mix of some of opera's most memorable moments. Long time opera fans will be familiar with most of the arias and newcomers to opera will recognize music that has become identified with movies and commercials.

5 out of 5 stars superb! .......2007-05-12

If you love wonderful operatic moments then this cd is a great buy for all of the wonderful and spectacular music on it. You get two cds for the price of one great opera cd, and all of the talented singers that were taken and put on these tracks do definate justice to all of the composers listed. A great cd to add to your collection especially if you are an aspiring singer or a student in music. Absolutely Fantastic!

5 out of 5 stars beatiful music.......2007-02-23

former reviews are no exaggeration, this is the most beautiful music I have come across. I have many opera CDs but this is one I never tire of.
I listen to the CD everyday and it is always soothing, uplifting and inspiring. I wish I could find another as wonderful.

5 out of 5 stars Best Opera CD ever.......2007-02-16

I have orderd plenty of classical CD's and DVD's on this webside.
Most were phantastish but this one is the best.
I listen so often to this CD that it should have grooves.
I never get tired of it.
I recommend this CD highly.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars The Complete Piano Music of Scott Joplin.......2007-06-08

John Arpin does a great job with these pieces. The songs carry a consistent sound and are played very close to as-written, which comes and goes with old ragtime pieces. The stamping on Stop-Time Rag doesn't have a consistent sound to it, can be a little distracting. Everything else is great, overall I think that it's a great buy, I'm very happy with it.

2 out of 5 stars Another Performer Rewrites Joplin's Masterpieces.......2007-05-31

Once again, another performer feels the need to rewrite the music of the King of Ragtime. Scott Joplin spins in his grave each and every time this recording is played.

Again, to those who believe that concert music is meant to be rewritten by each and every performer I ask, is the same treatment also acceptable for Chopin's and Rachmaninoff's music? Would "Moonlight Sonata" sound better if played at twice the tempo and with a reprise of the first Adagio movement thrown in at the end? Obviously, the answer to these questions is a resounding NO!, so why does one of America's greatest composers get such disrespect?

Interpretation is an integral part of every performance. Adding one's own notes, phrases and chords where none should be is not. Randomly changing the structure of the piece is not. Playing a piece at twice the indicated tempo is not.

One the plus side, the depth of this collection is outstanding. Joplin's lesser known pieces like "Harmony Club Waltz" really shine. The recording is decent in quality, although a bit bassy in places.

While its been stated before, I feel its worth repeating: Buy Joshua Rifkin's performances of Joplin in order to hear how the Master intended his pieces to sound.

4 out of 5 stars complete piano music of Scott Joplin on 4 CD's.......2007-02-14

Although all of the music is terrific it is rather a lot of a similar sound. I think I would have preferred 2 CD's of selected piano works of Scott Joplin. But I did get the music at a good price.

5 out of 5 stars Ragtime Marvel.......2005-10-09

This collection of Scott Joplin's piano music is outstanding. As a lover of ragtime which was a prelude to jazz, I am thoroughly enjoying this collection. If you are not a lover of jazz, you may be a lover of ragtime. Jazz can sometimes be grating on the nerves, whereas ragtime lifts the spirit.

3 out of 5 stars Complete, but poor quality.......2005-09-25

I have been learning some ragtime and wanted to hear more to find other selections to learn. Listened to Maple Leaf Rag, my favorite, first and was disappointed. Listened to others and was more disappointed. Maple flies - much faster than anyone would play it, you can't make out some of the phrases. And talk about ad libs - Tempo, dynamics, embelishments, nuances - I really think he plays some wrong notes too because he's going so fast. It's really a poor recording - and that's just on Maple Leaf. Others with "intros" start quick and then there's a grand pause, not a rest, but nearly a five second break. It's hard to argue how Joplin would have played it, but this is hardly anything I want to try to imitate. The only qualitating factor is the number of songs for the price. A lot of variety of a poor interpretation is only worth 3 stars. if that. Look for Rifkin or a copy that is as written to listen to first, then go for the ad libs and "artistic interpretations"

It is fantastic. I have been a Ray Boltz fan for what is like forever.
My family loves his music and you would too. my eldest brother loves to sing his music when he performs and there are always tears in the peoples eyes.

Ray Boltz is an inspiration!!

Moments for the Heart: The Very Best of Ray Boltz Volume 1 & 2

I heard "Thank You" sung by a Pastor at our church a few months back, and while he sung the Holy Ghost swept through the congregation. Wow. The entire double CD is timeless and a keeper.

5 out of 5 stars Ray Boltz: An Inspirational Storyteller.......2007-01-30

This CD is truly the very BEST of Ray Boltz. From perhaps the best known of all his songs "I Pledge Allegiance To The Lamb", to "Thank You", the story of how one life can touch so many, to one of my personal favorites,
"Is There A Heaven For Me", they are all here! I am near tears every time I hear "Is There A Heaven For Me", the story of a child, cold and hungry in the street and the question she asks. Ray has given of himself to children like that with his work for Mission Of Mercy. I have personally seen Ray Boltz in concert twice, and this CD reminds me of those performances. He is a great singer, and wonderful man of God!

5 out of 5 stars Mom loved Ray Boltz.......2007-01-16

I bought this CD for my mom for Chritmas because Ray's first song on the album, "Thank You" reminds me of my mom and what she has done for me. Mom loves the CD and plays it all the time.

5 out of 5 stars Not Volz.......2002-07-25

Greg Volz was the lead singer of Petra, not Ray Boltz. Ray Boltz is a great vocalist and songwriter, but never an arena rock band lead singer!

1 out of 5 stars DON'T BOTHER.......2007-06-29

This CD deserves a zero star rating. The engineering on this CD takes away any hope of enjoyment. The mixing is absolutely terrible. The group sounds as if they're trying to scretch out and shatter someone. This is an all-time group, but the quality control is AWOL. Love On A Two-Way Street is the only song that sounds decent, and yet...

5 out of 5 stars Wendy from Washington DC .......2007-03-29

This CD is Fantastic. I remember when I was a teenager and I would go to the Loew's Palace in DC to see my favorite singers. I have been a fan of the MOMENTS and later RAY, GOODMAN & BROWN for many years. I remember one night I had stayed for both shows and Harry Ray had me come up on stage to sing and dance with him. I never forgot that night. I have the CD's from New Jersey "THE BIG SHOW". I am still a fan from wayback. Would love to see other DVD's from this group....I still love you all....My heart is still with Harry Ray....Gone way to soon. You will always be missed.

3 out of 5 stars The Best of the Moments: Love On a Two way street.......2007-01-18

I have been an admirer of the Moments since 1975. I have another "Greatest Hits" collection as well as the "Greatest Hits" of Ray, Goodman and Brown. The only stand-out song on this collection is the "Full-length" version of "Sexy Mama (8:52)." Rhino chooses to release the "Single" versions of most of the other songs? If I had known this in advance, I probably wouldn't have spent the money. Arguably, I only spent $10/US for the collection - but in there is a principle. I feel that I've been cheated (somewhat).

In closing, The song "Come Away With Me" is a classic "Moments" song that will grow on you!

Five stars for the Moments, three stars for the disc...

5 out of 5 stars Out of Site.......2007-01-10

This cd is allsome. I love to get a cd an it has more than one of to good songs on it. Most of the songs on here are the bomb. I was in grade school when most of these songs came out and those was some good times.

Okay, I listen almost exclusively to classical music, but I do so simply for the pleasure and nothing more. I cannot tell you about Gabriela Montero's technique, and, when she improvises, I have no ability to judge the music's intrinsic value, authenticity, or whatever. I can only tell you this: while I own many dozens of albums, running the full spectrum of the classical genre, I value none of them above Montero's Bach and Beyond and her Piano Recital. Pure listening joy!

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Magnificent!.......2007-03-09

I first saw Gabriela Montero on 60 Minutes a few months ago and was taken by her playing ability as well as her ability to improvise on the classics. Ms. Montero's fingers fly over the keyboard, playing Rachmaninoff more dramatically and key-perfect than I've heard in a long time. I decided to purchase this CD and have not been disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars Improvisations Unbelievable!.......2007-01-26

Gabriela Montero is a tremendous talent, both in standard classical repertoire, and improvisation. I have know her since she was a young girl, and she was by far the best pianist around, even then. She is an undersung pianist of our age, and should rise to the top very soon!

5 out of 5 stars A beautiful breath of fresh air!.......2007-01-20

What a sheer delight hearing her play. I've never heard anyone quite like her. A phenomenally gifted player, and it's a rare treat to hear someone who defies pigeonholing. I had heard her on the radio, and knew I was onto something when her improvisation on a very simple theme gave me the chills. I love both CD's in this collection.

It's interesting hearing the negative response coming from some classical musicians and fans. At times it can seem to roughly follow the stages of grief as proposed by Kubler-Ross. I'm a professional guitarist, and it's funny because it's almost identical to how guitarists react to hearing another guitarist, but with an big class-conscious overlay (all very civilized, of course). Think of the "guitarist screwing in a lightbulb" joke. To paraphrase and extrapolate on what someone might say upon hearing her improvisation:

1. Shock: Wow, he's good. Oh, and it's a woman!? And you say it's improvisation??

2. Denial: That can't possibly be improvisation. Classical musicians don't engage in that untidy process. What she's playing must be written out, and I can tell! Don't ask, I just know it.

3. Anger: This stuff is no good. Only permanent music is of value through the ages, and that's why classical music (and only the European kind) is better than any other music. Besides, I can't improvise, so I reject it - and only THOSE people engage in improvisation.

4. Depression: She can play all the classical music, and seemingly can improvise, or at least pass her stuff off as such. Not only that, she's getting attention and money, and we're not. Why is the world unfair?

5. Acceptance: (sort of) Well, I guess she's selling CD's, and is becoming successful. She is, I hate to admit it, a great player. Even if she is a faker. Of course, they're begging my Muffy to become artist-in-residence in Spoleto....

The other reviewer has a point when he says that she may be viewed as a curiosity. Because she's crossing genres, people may not know what to make of it, and this often causes reflexive hostility. As an improvisor, I would agree that it's hard to say that something is 100% improvised - players tend to have pet phrases and favorite general ideas they return to. But to me, Gabriela's playing is at the highest level of skill, beauty, and feeling, whether improvising or playing written pieces.

5 out of 5 stars Ultimate music for every time of day and every mood.......2007-07-03

With 20 CDs in the collection, we have classical music for every mood and atime of day.

4 out of 5 stars Would give 5 stars if sound quality where better.......2007-06-30

This Classical collection is one of great length and breadth ,and is well worth purchasing ,if you want an abundance of music at a low price.The sound quality is decent,however it is not great.This set will not provide you with the crisp,clear sound quality of a RCA,CBS or other well known label,so some classical aficionados may not appreciate it much.It all depends on what your looking for ,I guess.

5 out of 5 stars Great collection for a great price.......2007-06-27

I did not expect much in buying this collection, but I was greatly surpeised. There were no reviews of the product at the time, and I bought the collection simply as a sampler of many great piano pieces. Most of the recordings are exquisite and of decent recording quality. This collection was well worth the price.

5 out of 5 stars 20 Fabulous Discs.......2007-06-08

I am surprised that this set has been out for 4 years and nobody reviewed it here yet. This is a lovely and occasionally amazing compilation. I was moved by many of the compositions. I really enhanced my classical music collection with this set. You have so many legends here to enjoy, from Bach to Brahms, Mozart to Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninov, Gershwin, and more. If you love classical piano music and don't already have most of these works then this is a must buy for you. The price may go up, but I was fortunate to cash in on the $17.97 price. Quite a bargain for 20 fabulous discs.

The alluring title track alone makes this CD a must-have. A 15-minute dreamscape laid down by pianist Duke Pearson, the song features enchanting solos by tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson and vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson. Guitarist Grant Green's single-note melody heightens the song's suspense. Grant's original "Jean de Fleur" finds the ensemble in brisker tempo, while their cover of John Lewis's "Django" exudes the spine-tingling coolness of Lewis's brand of bop. --John Murph

Album Description

Time is suspended on these four haunting, extended tunes by this brilliant guitarist with the aid of an all-star cast. Unique in Green's discography for its relaxed, lengthy performances and almost dream-like lyricism, this Blue Note classic could well be called "Ballads for the Ages."

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Idle Moments by Grant Green.......2007-03-13

The deeper I reach into the Grant Green bag of musical delights, the more I am aware of what true musical mastery is.

5 out of 5 stars unsung jazz genuius.......2007-03-08

Idle Moments is a jazz masterpiece: understated, elegant, flowing; a veritable delight on a late night listen. All of the players shine and blend together well. Both Grant Green and Duke Pearson rate with the best. This is a trippy, laid back session; subtlety reigns supreme.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Album.......2006-12-14

My parents bought me this album about six years ago to get me into jazz (which I had started playing a little bit) and now I'm studying jazz guitar in a conservatory. It's just that inspiring. Jean de Fleur and Nomad are especially interesting tunes, and the solos on Nomad continue to amaze me. The ballads speak for themselves... If you like jazz guitar at all, buy this album!

5 out of 5 stars Makes me wish I was 29 years old in 1963!.......2006-09-15

I was born in 71 so I'm just discovering all this jazz stuff at the ripe age of 34 in 2006 but this CD is just... well it's just freaking great. Makes me wish I was 29 in the 60's in NY. I'm discovering a lot of jazz preparing my mother's iPod for xmas (shhhh.....) so I'm trying to buy alot of the the jazz she has in albums and buying this and listening to this makes me realize, damn... my parents must have been pretty cool if they had this album back in the day. Anyway, pretty much all the reviews are 5-star so this review is for the young folks that are teetering... just buy it! If you don't like it you can always resell it for about what you paid cause someone that appreciates music will buy it.

5 out of 5 stars Grows on you.......2006-08-20

Don't put it away after just a few listens, give this one a solid chance and you will be rewarded. It has become a favorite of mine.

Album Description

Robert Plant's Post-Led Zeppelin Solo Career is celebrated with an expanded & remastered edition. The Principle of Moments is a complex and expressive sonic marvel. It includes four rare bonus tracks as well as the previously-unreleased track, "Turnaround."

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Average Effort.......2007-06-24

It's unlikely that an album such as this is going to win over new fans - I'd guess most people buying it are fans from the past. So I'll address the three things those who are considering upgrading will care about:

1. Does it sound better?
2. Are the bonus tracks worthy?
3. Is the booklet any good?

Is the sound better? The quick answer is YES. However, it's a MARGINAL improvement only. It's much louder, so if you play your music with the stereo turned up to 5, then you might only need this disc on 3 (if that makes any sense). There is EVER SO SLIGHTLY more clarity, and the bass is tighter. However, probably only audiophiles will care. It is NOT a "night and day" difference. When you adjust volume levels so the old disc sounds the same loudness wise, the differences are very minor.

Are the bonus tracks worth it? Well there are four here. The first "In the Mood Live" is actually quite bad. Plant's vocal is out of tune on the harmonies, and the mix loses instruments every now and again, pushing the guitar to the back. The second "Thru with the Two Step Live" is pretty good though. It clocks in at 10 minutes, with an extended intro of more than 3 minutes. The mix has settled, and it's a good listen. The third is "Lively Up Yourself Live", a Bob Marley tune. This is a good song, and while Plant simply covers it (not major changes really) it's a fun tune, and it's done by musicians clearly having a good time. Finally, there's "Turnaround", an outtake from the original sessions. This is by far the best bonus track here. I wish they had put it FIRST among the bonus songs, so we could have enjoyed the sessions rather than have to wade through the live stuff first.

All in all, the bonus material is okay. The studio track is great, the live stuff is nice, but not essential.

Finally the booklet. They have taken the notes straight from the booklet of the box set from wence this came - they're not exhaustive, sadly. Still, tey beat the original release.

All in all then, this is a minor upgrade to a classic record. Those expecting something revilutionary sound wise will be disapointed if they do a close examination. The bonus tracks are't terrible though, and Plant is always great.

5 out of 5 stars Robert Plant Continues Where Zeppelin Might Have.......2007-05-06

With PRINCIPLE OF MOMENTS, Robert Plant continues to move forward musically and lyrically. On this CD, Plant continues on the path to where Led Zeppelin might have gone had drummer John Bonham not died in an alcohol-related choking incident in 1980.

5 out of 5 stars NPR gives "moments" period.......2005-07-20

I cannot write enough to praise the radio essays that have been broadcast regularly on NPR. I've been a fan for the past four or five years. So, I not only have "driveway" moments, but "parking lot" moments, "at home after work" moments; you name it. If NPR is on my radio, I literally find I cannot leave my car.

My only regret was the CD didn't contain the complete broadcast of the amusing "Santaland Diaries."

4 out of 5 stars NPR has the best programming.......2005-01-24

There is no other radio station that has better programming than NPR. The creativity, humour and complexity of their stories gives them a head up on all other media outlets. This CD is poignant, funny and interesting. The stories really do hold you in the car and in your driveway. There were times where we had to pullover because the story was so funny. In other situations there was not a dry eye in the car. I highly reccomend this CD. Although, "Driveway Moments 2" 2005 is not nearly as good. In fact I was completley dissapointed in the sequal.

5 out of 5 stars I really had a driveway moment with this CD.......2004-10-03

This CD is a wonderfully eclectic collection of some of the best stories of NPR. A "driveway moment" is when there is something so compelling on the radio that you sit in your driveway, listening, rather than leave the car.

That's exactly what happened to me when I heard "My So-Called Lungs." It's indescribably touching, and I was left with tears streaming down my face, in awe of how the young girl making this audio diary could be so brave.

The stories span an almost unbelievable arc of emotion, from the drama of the story I just mentioned, to David Sedaris's Santaland Diaries, which is so hilarious that it's commonly played every Christmas on NPR stations across the country.

This is a suberb CD. Listen to it on a long road trip, and I guarantee the miles will just fly by, you'll be so absorbed in these stories. I have just ordered Driveway Moments 2--if it's half as good as this one, it'll be well worth it.
