At The Movies by Andre Rieu.......2007-05-20

Andre Rieu brings a warmth and pop-like aire to his music.Here he plays popular music with a classical orchestra and adds his special ingredients to it ie:humor (musical jokes for the serious listener),fun,light-heartedness.It's a band of very talented musicians having alot of fun as is evident in the playing and especially if you've seen them in concert.I can "hear" the smiles on their not serious faces by their style of playing...less staccato and with more feeling.Andre and company swing and dance through every track climaxing on Ravel's Bolero from the movie "10".

very beautiful.......2007-01-09

This cd is very beautiful. It captures the songs wonderfully. The orchestra does a fine job.

Refreshing Music.......2006-11-03

Andre Rieu presents wonderful songs in a very inspirational way. They are to be enjoyed as "dinner music" or just for times when the TV is off and you need some "quiet time". It is a great grouping of melodies.

from texas--AND FROM A MUSIC LOVER.......2006-08-30

ANDRE RIEU TAKES US ON A WONDERFUL TRIP BACK IN TIME TO THE MOVIES YOU CAN=T FORGET AND THE MUSIC THAT MADE THEM CLASSICS. DO BUY IT. IT IS A TREASURE...

Andre Rieu - Music for the masses.......2006-08-10

Sometimes you just want enjoyable music as a backdrop to the job at hand. I turn to Andre to get me through these events. Probably not a glowing endorsement, but if you know of Mr. Rieu's feelings about music, he would just smile and nod his head. This is music to just enjoy for the sake of music - and that is a good thing.

The "Golden Age" referred to here spans The Jazz Singer and the advent of the talkies to the death throes of the old studio system in the 1960s. So vast was the era's musical landscape that even this 42-track, double-disc anthology can't encompass all its peaks. Not surprisingly, the bulk of this collection originated with the Tiffany's of the screen musical, M-G-M, a body of work whose riches here encompass both pop-cultural bedrock ("Over the Rainbow," "Singin' in the Rain," "There's No Business Like Show Business," etc.) and some less familiar, if equally delightful star turns: Clark Gable gamely "Puttin' On the Ritz"; the sassy, 1948 original of "The Lady Is a Tramp" by Lena Horne; and a loopy duet of "Baby, It's Cold Outside" by Esther Williams and Ricardo Montalban. Fred Astaire's elegant, epochal reign at RKO and M-G-M is represented by "Night and Day," "Let's Face the Music and Dance," and three others, while Metro mainstays Gene Kelly and Judy Garland share equal time and billing. It's not perfect--Cagney's "Yankee Doodle Boy" and/or some Sinatra seem more logical choices than the odd "bonus" duet of Casablanca's "As Time Goes By" and "Lara's Theme" from Dr. Zhivago that close out disc one--but it's a stunning, surprisingly comprehensive primer on the Hollywood film musical nonetheless. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews:

They were right--there is NO business like the show business they did way back when !!!.......2006-11-18

Everything that happens in life
Can happen in a show
You can make 'em laugh
You can make 'em cry
Anything
Anything can go....

The clown with his pants falling down
Or the dance that's a dream of romance
Or the scene where the villain is mean
That's entertainment!

The lights on the lady in tights
Or the bride with the guy on the side
Or the ball where she gives him her all
That's entertainment!

The plot and the hot simply teeming with $ex
A gay divorcee who is after her ex
It could be Oedipus Rex
Where a chap kills his father
And causes a lot of bother

The clerk who is thrown out of work
By the boss who is thrown for a loss
By the skirt who is doing him dirt

The world is a stage,
The stage is a world of entertainment!

This two CD set amply proves that the musical melodies and lyrics from the golden age of the Hollywood musical remain unsurpassed to this day. This generous two CD set offers 42 incredible songs from Hollywood classic musicals. Most of these fine numbers are indeed from MGM, as Amazon correctly notes; but there are some RKO numbers and even a little from Warner Brothers. Thank goodness, though, that most of these songs came from MGM movies; MGM was the only studio that could boast that it truly had "more stars than there are in the heavens."

I love so many songs on these two CDs. Of course, there's the unforgettable classic "Over The Rainbow" sung by Judy Garland; she also performs "Easter Parade" and "Get Happy" on this two CD set and she carries most of the tune for "I Got Rhythm" even though Mickey Rooney helps her a little. I love "Baby, It's Cold Outside" for its' romantic overtones; and Lena Horne's "The Lady Is A Tramp" is flawless! We also get a rare chance to hear Clark Gable sing in "Puttin' On The Ritz;" and Bing Crosby's "Going Hollywood" may be brief but it's a fun song anyway.

There are two "bonus" tracks on the first CD: "As Time Goes By" from Casablanca and "Lara's Theme" from Doctor Zhivago. "As Time Goes By" is a good choice; it is another unsurpassed classic song that brings back memories and touches even the hardest of hearts. "Lara's Theme," however, is from the mid 1960s and I don't consider this period to be part of the "golden age" of Hollywood musicals.

The liner notes are excellent and they offer wonderful photos of the stars as well. The cover art is well done and the reverse cover art tells which movie each song is from and who is performing each song. Moreover, the quality of the sound is excellent especially when you consider that these numbers were recorded quite a few decades ago.

In short, this superlative two CD highlights the glory of the Hollywood musical when a certain type of sophistication dominated professional movie production. I highly recommend this CD for fans of Hollywood musicals, classic pop vocals and fans of the artists and actors who perform on this two CD set.

One of the best cds I ever bought. .......2006-06-07

What an amazon collection of songs! This is bar none my favorite cd just because of the variety and the quality of songs on it. I love music from this era, and this cd is the perfect companion to my life. Love it! Buy it, you won't regret it for a moment!

Never Sounded Better.......2006-03-16

Apart from the great selection of soundtracks, what really makes this compilation top value is the quality of the sound processing. Executed with finesse, these tracks sound better than when first issued and many are unedited, fuller versions: like "Singing In The Rain", for example. Throw in the great price, and this double disc set is a "must have" for all lovers of classic movie music.

It was once said by the songwriters of that era - "There are two artists you want perform your songs on the big screen, they are Fred Astaire and Judy Garland they sing it just the way we wrote it, for which you will have a guaranteed hit on your hands"...well, this collections certainly has some merit to that statement...because with Judy Garland and Fred Astaire performing seven songs each, there must be something to it.

This collection of musicals still has the magic that we remember from those bygone years...but as long as we have the labels and networks who play and show these wonderful films of yesteryear, they will never be forgotten...hats off to Rhino Records, George Feltenstein (producer) and Doug Schwartz (engineer) and Turner Classic Movies for sharing those 42 selections from 42 films...celebrating decades of the tunes and artists that gave it their all...from what it commonly called "The Hollywood Dream Factory"...The Golden Age of Hollywood Musicals is still among us...gotta love it!

I have been waiting for this great movie music to come out on cd. Classic songs from Cole Porter with Grace Kelly, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra and Louis Armstrong. For sure a keeper you could never go wrong with this combination. I have this playing in my car everyday and it gets me in a great mood. A++++++. Be ware though that this hasn't been digitally remasterd which could've been nicer but love this just the same.

Kottonmouth Kings are the one-issue voters of hip-hop, eloquently answering the question of just how many ways a single crew can rap the praises of marijuana. Their second album, High Society, is as redolent of smoke as the stoners' van in the movie Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Over jumping electro-funk-rock tracks, the Kings celebrate the possibility of legalization ("Peace Not Greed"), home gardening ("Good as Gold"), the munchies ("Here We Go Again"), and even hazily mislaying a smoke ("The Joint"). Uh, what were we talking about? --Rickey Wright

Customer Reviews:

The Kream of the Krop.......2006-11-07

High Society is by far the best Kottonmouth Kings cd ever. I loved Royal Highness, but i just like Richter more than Saint. Most people think Rollin Stoned was the best, but its rhymes aren't really up to par with High Society. Here's a song by song review.

1)Koina Gold Greeting - just an intro N/A
2)Here We Go Again - great start to a great cd. awesome beat, rhymes, and chorus 4/5
3)First Class - Very catchy chorus. awesome beat, and fast rhymes 5/5
4)Daydreamin Fazes - One of my favorite KmK songs ever. lots of energy and awesome rhymes. great catchy beat and chorus. 6/5
5)The Joint - I didn't like this song at first but now it's also one of my favorite KmK songs. pretty good beat, awesome rhymes. 5/5
6)Good As Gold - The beat to this is so white, it's awesome. the chorus is catchy also and the rhymes are great. 5/5
7)Face Facts - Catchy chorus, good beat, one of Loc's best rhymes here. (i'm not the best, just flexed on the next Daddy X planetec, simply, not complex) 5/5
8)Peace Not Greed - Definitely in my top 5 of any KmK song. the beat has tons of energy, and so do the rhymes and the awesome catchy chorus. 6/5
9)The Lottery - Awesome! Chorus isn't too great, beat is incredibly awesome, and Loc raps for over a minute. 5/5
10)Round and Round - Chorus is good, the beat is so white again it's great. i love how Richter and Loc go back and forth. 5/5
11)King's Blend - Not much to say. Awesome beat, awesome chorus, fast, and i mean FAST rhymes. This is the Kings at their absolute best. 6/5
12)Anarchy Through Capitalism - just a filler N/A
13)We the People - One of the only songs on this cd i skip sometimes. cool beat, rhymes are good, just doesn't stand out to me. still good though 4/5
14)Elevated Sound - First song i ever hear by KmK. Awesome beat and sounds, great rhymes and catchy chorus. 5/5
15)UnXplanetory - The other song i skip usually. Beat is ok, raps are still good, but the song overall doens't seem to have much energy. 3/5
16)Wickit Klowns - Great song. Full of energy and the chorus is catchy even if you can't undertand it. I love ICP too so this song was even better. 5/5
17)Coffee Shop Stop - Catchy chorus, great rhymes, nice kickback beat. 5/5
18)Size of an Ant - I love this song. Loc is awesome on this song. Funny chorus. Only thing i don't like is Grand Vanacular. 5/5
19)Crucial - Great song, used to be my favorite. beat is full of energy and so are the rhymes. good to play in your car. love Dogboy too. 5/5
20)B-Dubb's Blend - Just some mixing on the tables. Still a great beat and cool sounds. N/A

Everything about this cd is awesome. I dont' see why anyone wouldn't like it. If you are just getting into KmK, get this, not the mediocre new cds like Koast 2 Koast. Oh, and yes most of the rhymes are about marijuana, so if you don't like that stuff you may not like KmK. You should know that by now though.

amsterdam... a place called home.......2006-06-12

This was the ablum that marked the change in direction for KMK. Even though Johny Richter was the orginal member of the Kottonmouth Kings before Saint Dog (for those who have watched 10 Years Deep) this was the first album that he appeared on as a member. I got into KMK around 2004 but picked up the first 2 records first, then got High Society and this was the album that finally clicked with me. The first 2 records are great on their own terms but I really started to dig the sound they had goin on High Society. Tighter rappin skills, better beats, production was better and the album has alot of energy that gets me pumped up. Once I heard this album I knew I loved the sound and been hooked ever since. This has to be one of my favorite KMK records I love every song. pick it up!

Great tracks:

Here We Go Again
First Class
Day Dreamin' Fazes
Face Facts
Peace Not Greed
The Lottery
King's Blend
We The People
Elevated Sounds
Coffee Shop

High Society = High Energy.......2006-01-03

I find this album to be so full of energy its unbelieveable, KMK are an awesome band even if there topic of smoking weed and drinking gets tiresome,
Kona Gold Greeting: Just a 16 second intro, nothing special.
Here We Go Again: Great opener, great beat with lots of bass, mostly D-loc and Richter on this and they come good. 5/5
First Class: A really cool chilled out beat, D-loc comes best for me on here, the chorus is average. 5/5
Day Dreamin Fazes: My favourite KMK song ever, this song is awesome, needs to be played loud, the beat and lyrics are awesome although its the beat that does it, the chorus is catchy, you will be singing along, if you dont dance around to this you are dead inside. 5/5
The Joint: This song has grown on me alot, i wasnt to keen on this, but now i find the beat very infectious, the verses are decent, the chorus is average. 4/5
Good As Gold: Another awesome song, the beat is very cool, i love the chorus, the verse are cool this whole song just flows well together. 5/5
Face Facts: I enjoy the chorus and the beat, the verses are ok, but i just seem to skip this alot, i just cant get in to it, no means a bad song tho. 3/5
Peace Not Greed: Wicked Song, again beat and lyrics are awesome like most on this album, the chorus is great, the KMk are saying there would peace not greed if the whole world smoked weed. 5/5
The Lottery: A song about what they would do if they won the lottery, i think its an average song. 3/5
Round And Round: We continue with more wicked songs, the beat is wicked and bouncy, D-Loc and Richter are great on here and you will be singing along to the chorus. 5/5
King's Blend: Really cool chilled beat with Richter and D-Loc jus straight ripping it apart, another wicked track, maybe the most sounding Hip-Hop track on the album. 5/5
Anarchy Through Capitolism: This is just a 37 second track with Coporate Avenger reading sumthing out, kinda like a buildup to the next track.
We The People: Another banger of a song, again the beat and verse are wicked. 5/5
Elevated Sounds: Another song that grew on me, this is a decent song for me now that i used to skip, how stupid was i. 5/5
Un Xplanetory: I find the verse very good but i cant stand the chorus and i also dont find the beat very good at all. 3/5
Wickit Klowns: Guest Apperance here by the Insane Clown Posse, either you love them or hate em, i love em so this track is a bonus for me cause this track kicks ass, the beat, verses and chorus are all wicked. 5/5
Coffee Shop: A fairly decent song, but i tend to skip. 3/5
Size Of An Ant: A pretty cool song with some excellent rapping, jus another song stuck with many other great songs on this album. 4/5
Crucial: A wicked song, with the best chorus on the whole album and beat is fairly cool and great verses. 5/5
B-Dubbs Blend: Just an Instrumental of the beat used in Size Of An Ant, pretty cool beat.
Look how many 5/5 i gave on this album, now i know that might not be your opinion but if want to buy a KMK album i suggest you get this first an excellent album with wicked beats, also great for the party with tracks like Round & Round, Day Dreamin Fazes and Peace Not Greed, buy this now.

best kmk album out there.......2005-09-25

this is my favorite kmk album. every song on this album is outstanding. richter and d loc flow very well together. saint was good, but richter is better. the best songs on here are: first class, good as gold, the lottery, kings blend and crucial. if you're just getting into kmk/subnoize, definitely pick this one up first. i also recommend getting big b and kingspade.

Amsterdam, A Place Called Home...........2005-08-07

This has to be my 2nd favorite album by KmK. Every single song on this cd is a chill factor, with groundbreaking songs. Coffee Shop has to be like one of the best songs on this cd no doubt about it right next to King's Blend. But for one thing i kind of miss saint dog, cause man in royal highness he put it all into it Old School, until he left. Then he got replaced by Johnny Richter, And Alot of people say that saint dog is better then Johnny. Well unfortanely not really J-Ric has more ability to spit some lyrical lyrics that will make wanna here more, And more about him. My only thing to say is that i hope KmK makes an album that will put back saint dog, Cause if they do, for sure it will be like a cult classic cd right next to "Royal Highness" , "High Society", And Hidden Stash 2.

Great representation of music from a great singer.......2007-01-07

A terrific album by a great singer. This album represents the considerable territory that Kiri Te Kanawa covers in here repertoire. She moves easily from Handel to Puccini to Jerome Kern. The insertion of classic show tunes as a part of this CD is a nice little plus. Some opera stars absolutely kill popular music by overwhelming it with operatic technique (listen to Richard Tucker singing "What now my love"; this is a pleasant little tune, but it can't stand up to Tucker's voice of steel, using all the power at his command). Te Kanawa sings these songs, for the most part, nicely and does not overpower them with operatic conventions.

She does a wonderful job on Handel's "Let the bright seraphim," displaying good coloratura technique, as a matter of fact. This cut nicely illustrates the clean sound of her voice. Her version of "Dove sono" (from Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro) is a reflective rendering of this aria. The smoothness of her vocal line is wonderful to hear. Her version of "Vissi d'arte" (from Puccini's Tosca) also illustrates the art of Dame Kiri.

The popular tunes that follow are very interesting. She and Jose Carreras, at the outset, begin to overwhelm "Tonight" (from "West Side Story," with--by the way--Leonard Bernstein himself conducting this cut), making it appear that this might be one of those dismal pieces where opera singers wreck songs. However, shortly thereafter, the song becomes more Broadway than Metropolitan Opera, and that is to the good. Better still are Te Kanawa's versions of classic songs such as "Summertime" (from Gershwin's Porgy and Bess), where singing in a higher register works nicely and where she treats the song on its own terms; just so, Jerome Kern's "Smoke gets in your eyes" is sung so well. It is a poignant version of this song.

All in all, for those who are curious about Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, this is one interesting entrée. Well worth acquiring and listening to.

Beautiful voice, great collection.......2005-11-21

I think Kiri has a beuatiful voice, she is never overtly dramatic, but the people who call her the "church soprano" should hear this album. She can sing sacred music better than many other opera stars, but she is so great as Countess in Mozart's Figaro. This is a great collection of many different pieces, from operas, sacred works, musicals, all sung with lots of feeling. Let The Bright Seraphim is the aria she sang at the wedding of Princess Diana and Prince Charles, it is such a splendid performance. My favourite piece on this album is probably Mozart's Laudate Dominum, but there are no disappointing songs here. Her voice is so warm, and she really gets involved with the text. If you are a big fan of Kiri, you should get this collection, it is such a nice selection of her greatest hits, and it is a very good introduction for new fans.

Magnificent.......2005-02-20

I admit straightout to know nothing of opera - the cd is my first of its kind. Knowledge, however, is not required to enjoy this cd, only the ability to listen and feel.

Hearing her voice used as an instrument so beautifully I cannot but fall a little in love with her whenever listening to it.

The selection of tracks is varied; I probably prefer the classical tracks, but all are well performed in my opinion.

Kiri Te Kanawa Is Peerless.......2004-07-11

She looks and sounds so beautiful. The first time I ever heard the inimitable voice of Kiri Te Kanawa was on a recording of Salaambo's aria from CITIZEN KANE for the RCA film classics series on vinyl. It was one of the most haunting and beautiful pieces of music ever composed by Bernard Herrmann. It was Kiri Te Kanawa performance of this piece that was so incredible. I had seen the film several times, but to hear a high fidelity recording of Kiri Te Kanawa on this particular piece really demonstrated not only the raw talent but also a depth of intuitive emotion that she brought to Herrmann's composition. Anyone that could interpret the inner struggle behind Herrmann's music so precisely demonstrated an uncommon ability to become one with the music. Her performance of "Ave Maria" on this CD is referent and exquisite. I love Leonard Bernstein's piece from WEST SIDE STORY that Kiri performs so vibrantly with Jose Carreras. I still can't pronounce her entire name correctly but Kiri Te Kanawa is the epitome of a well-honed talent. The selections on this CD are appreciably diverse demonstrating her phenomenal range and abilities. Kiri Te Kanawa has been and still is a gift to us all. This CD is wonderful.

I stood up also!!.......2003-07-31

Yes, Kiri at 59 is something special indeed. The great moment for me in Edinburgh was Reynaldo Hahn's à Chloris - I always thought Susan Graham owned this song, but Kiri's version from that moment on was the one I will always remember.

Do catch her & the wonderful Julian Reynolds with a similar program at the Royal Festival Hall on november 24th. If you have any money left buy this album from amazon.com. Great cover!

The Most Beautiful Music In The World.......2007-06-25

Simply stated, Andre Rieu performs some of the most beautiful music in the world today. "Dreaming" is my favorite but in the end, I can likely say that anything he has done is my favorite. You are transported to a
beautiful universe where it is rather difficult to return to normal everyday life.

Dreaming with peace.......2007-02-10

Wonderful, peaceful music to make a quiet time a near spiritual experience.

Dreamy is how you feel.......2003-01-15

I am a great Andre Rieu fan and a Strauss fan. This was even more relaxing than Andre's other works. Great stress relief after a long day or just to sit and relax with your special someone. If people like Andre Rieu, you may also want to try Tim Janis who is a great composer/conductor. He will also relax you.

Too Dreamy.......2002-12-28

Music beautiful but too dreamy.........can easily put you to sleep. My fault...should have previewed first. I was looking for something more lush and upbeat like much of his other stuff.

Same old soup warmed over.......2002-12-25

There is entirely too much material in this CD that has been done (and done...) by others. In addiion, there are too many tracks that are easy listening. I was looking for light classical. And very few of the classical tracks stray very far from a very well beaten path. This CD is probably the last Andre Rieu CD I will buy. Sorry.
