Alice's Restaurant [Enhanced] [Soundtrack]
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
There was a time when it seemed Arlo Guthrie's impact would outstrip that of his legendary dad, Woody Guthrie. For, in the waning days of the '60s, Woody was largely a cult figure, whereas his longhaired offspring had parlayed (largely by accident) a droll, drawn-out talking blues number called "Alice's Restaurant Massacree" into a hit album and acclaimed film. These days, Arlo is a respected journeyman folksinger while Woody, in death, has become a towering cultural icon. This soundtrack captures the son's shining moment. Taken from Arthur (Bonnie and Clyde) Penn's film adaptation of Arlo's tongue-in-cheek tune ("You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant"), this soundtrack presents an agreeable assortment of pleasures, including Arlo's title track, jaunty acoustic incidental music by credited soundtrack composer Gary Sherman, and a painfully earnest version of Joni Mitchell's "Songs to Aging Children" by someone named Tigger Outlaw. This deluxe-edition CD is fleshed out by 10 extra tracks, including Pete Seeger's versions of Woody's "Pastures of Plenty" and "Car Song," the latter with Arlo along for the ride. --Steven Stolder
From the Label
The hippie classic that forever established Arlo Guthrie on the counterculture map (in the Berkshires to be precise), director Arthur Penn's (Bonnie & Clyde) film was inspired by Arlo's song "Alice's Restaurant Massacree," his talking blues recounting of various events that occurred around Thanksgiving 1965 in Stockbridge, MA, including his arrest for dumping trash which led to his rejection by the draft board (lucky guy). 1999 is the 30th anniversary of the film's release.

Customer Reviews:
Love this CD.......2007-07-05
Had this when it came out on LP--didn't even know it was ON cd til just now, and I ordered it. Take it for what it is, a timepiece from the period. The Bee Gees in the mid to late 70's were as dominant as the Beatles were in the 60's. PS- CHICAGO was offered the "Got To Get You" song and passed.
to those disco freaks that love cheesy films!.......2007-04-19
Yes, I'm a HUGE fan of Peter Frampton and the Brothers Gibb and I'm an even BIGGER fan of cheesy films. I've been hunting down this soundtrack on CD since wearing out the VHS I checked out from the library. After having the DVD fall on my foot at my local Walgreen's (and watching it 7 times over 3 days), I'm now starting my search again for the awesome soundtrack. I'm a bit miffed that the tracks are out of order, but it's no big deal. If you love Frampton's guitar work, the BeeGee's vocals, and a cheesy film from '78 to boot, then by all means, get it. For those haters that don't like disco-fied Beatles covers, well, all I can say to them is pfft (oh, and not buy it if they're going to just fuss and cuss about how it's not 'right').
Why would you buy it then?.......2007-03-20
Looking at the previous review I wonder...Did you see the movie? if you did then you heard all the tracks before buying the cd. Yes the movie was corny and campy...and I'm glad it didn't turn out to be like Xanadu (largly due to the fact that no one had to act, they just sang the parts) but it still leads me to wonder why would you buy the soundtrack to a movie you felt like was a flop? I enjoyed the music therefore I will most likely buy this cd. I enjoyed the movie as well (sucker for the Bee Gees)...
Good Music.......2007-03-17
This sound track from the movie is a very good remake of the Beatles tunes. I enjoyed the movie back years ago and enjoy the music again now...
Excellent Purchase.......2007-01-10
This item was exactly as advertised. It arrived in perfect condition and in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to do business with this seller again in the future.

CBS's 1957 television production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella has the polished yet untampered sound of a live Broadway musical recording, despite the fact that the album was recorded in advance of the television broadcast. Julie Andrews stars as Cinderella, and her clean yet vulnerable voice perfectly suits her role as the picked-on dreamer in rags. The tracks play like a Julie Andrews showcase: her voice dominates the selections for both its distinctive qualities and the fact that she is featured in more songs than any other performer. The CD features four additional bonus tracks, including a piano version of "In My Own Little Corner," sung by Andrews. --Bryony Angell

Share a world beyond "High School Musical" or "Grease".......2007-06-14
OK, if you have kids or are around kids, they have sung the scores to the above mentioned shows until even the birds on the wallpaper know how they go. But it's not really the kids fault--just broaden their musical horizons with this lovely classic. The songs are simple, but memorable and have just enough musical richness to keep them interesting rather than predictible. Soon they will be another musical played over and over and over....ahh childhood.
A wonderful score...a wonderful cast!.......2007-01-04
I purchased this for my 4 year old grandaughter after she had seen the stage play and wanted to learn all of the songs. We love to sing them...the step-sisters' lament which is very funny, "Impossible" and (her version) "A Luddly Night". A great introduction to musical theater for little people.
This will date me!.......2006-04-12
I remember watching the original broadcast live (I believe it was live) and loving it. After all these years, I still do.
And I laughed to find out Jon Cypher was the police commissioner on Hill Street Blues. Took me a long time to wrap my head around that one.
a great album of a memorable event!
Cinderella with Julie Andrews.......2006-03-16
I love it. Much better than the later Leslie Ann Warren version. This particular CD looked like an old Columbia Records LP label. Very retro.
The Only Version Worth Owning..........2006-01-30
After Recently finishing a ameture production of Cinderella, I had to see the movie, but that was long after had become obsessed with the CD. The Music is excellent as well as the singers.
The major reason I enjoy this one more is because after playing the "steward" (yes, in our prodution the steward and chef were girl), I had to find someone/something to compare with. In the Brandy version, "Your majesties" a.k.a "The Royal Dressing Room Scene" had been changed, and in the Leslie Ann Warren Version, it has all but disappeared. I was thrilled when I found this almost totally unaltered version of the song (save for cutting out when the Steward actually lists the wines).
Another reason I fell in love with this CD is Julie Andrews performance. She was stunning and she has a beautiful voice. No other Cinderella CD comes even close to this one. I was happy to hear someone who could actually sing the stepmother's part, because in our production the stepmother was somewhat tone-deaf...
All-in-all, I love this CD and would recomend it to alot of people, because we all must remember that Originals are always the best...

Chris Vrenna's soundtrack to the American McGee's Alice video game is fittingly twisted. Sounds created with toy instruments and percussion, music boxes, clocks, doors, and sampled female voices (including Jack Off Jill singer Jessicka) are manipulated into nightmarish soundscapes. A harpsichord and a clock ticking over a bed of rhythmic effects invoke a sense of Victorian horror, while also playing off of modern motifs. Fans of the game and connoisseurs of dark and spooky music will be delighted by Vrenna's surreal score. --Bryan Reesman
Album Description
With the soundtrack to American McGee's Alice, Electronic Arts' new video game, Chris Vrenna (formerly of Nine Inch Nails) provides musical menace to accompany the heroine's adventures in a Wonderland gone to hell. The sounds of dilapidated toys and ghostly machinery converge with the haunting ambient electro-soundscape produced and composed by Vrenna.
Customer Reviews:
It sounded different in the game............2007-05-14
Sadly, the music doesn't sound EXACTLY like it does in the game & it doesn't have ALL of the songs. You're better off ripping the music straight from the game itself, wich you can. HOWEVER, if you like multiple versions of songs (I do) then it's worth buying. It's also a good piece for your AIW or AMA collection.
If you haven't played Fable: The Lost Chapters, the music in that game is somewhat similar & just as pleasant.
Stark- Haunting........2006-12-01
"Alice" was a beautiful and disturbing reminder of what creative storytelling and intense character design can do for a very typical game style. The best thing to come out of it, however, was the music.
Orchestrated by Nine Inch Nails' Chris Vrenna, "Alice"'s soundtrack is disturbing, yet deeply musical. Easy to listen to, these songs make for wonderful ambient music, painting whatever you happen to be doing in a dark but playful light.
Since it was created for fantastic worlds and imagery, this soundtrack conjures all the right images. Grinning cats, ancient clocktowers, clockwork soldiers and victims of madness dance through every note. It is beautiful, and must be listened to.
In Stock or Not?.......2006-09-17
Don't be fooled by the message of "1 in stock, more on the way" for there WAS "2 in stock..." when I ordered back on the 7th, its now the 16th and I am told they are Still waiting for their order to be fullfilled (apparently there is "0 in stock, and hopeing to get more").
Well, when it comes (if it comes) I hope its as good as I've been told...so much for "Standard 3~5 day shipping" costs.
:?
Best Game Score. Period........2006-08-27
This work is nothing short of magnificent.
It is surreal, beatiful, terrible (in the good stylistic sense, not the music itself) dark, sorrowful (but happy at the end!). The music is a story all to itself. I hope the film that coming out some time, manages to portray alice with the intergity and style that the soundtrack managed to lend to the videogame.
I love this soundtrack, to the extent of buying it again after losing the first copy! This is not mere music, this is an *experiance*. However don't listen to me. Get it yourself, forget all that you've read so as to avoid over expectation (cos that distracts sometimes I find). Just simply listen to it.
If I were to compare this to anything, it would be requeiem for a dream soundtrack (also worth getting). If you liked that, you'll love this.
All hail the Tweaker!
The Talented Chris Vrenna.......2006-02-28
Some of you may not be incredibly familiar with Chris Vrenna, or perhaps not familiar at all, so I'd like to clue you in a little about his talents.
He was the drummer for the music group "Nine Inch Nails", but for the past handful of years he's been producing full compositions on his own. They're all fantastic and this particular product is no different.
One might want to catagorize this as industrial, which is fair, but it has a truly classical flavour to it. With plenty of strings, choirs, and other assorted orchestral sounds, it's truly haunting and abosrbent.

New Faces of 1952 .......2007-05-13
This is the original broadway cast album. It contains songs which went on to become hits for their performers, such as Lizzie Borden, Lucky Pierre, Love is a simple thing, Guess who I saw today, Bal petit bal and Monotomous. Now re-released on Jasmine label, it was originally released by RCA Victor so the quality is excellent, but from the mono era.
Wonderful memories!.......2007-03-24
Loved having this on the CD form. I wore out the 33 1/3 record. Thank you for carrying this CD!
Where is Time For Tea?.......2005-12-04
I bought a recording of this show in the middle '70s when RCA was re-isuing a lot of their rare soundtracks. The record made a big deal about isuing a lost track called "Time For Tea" from this show sung by June Carroll and Alice Ghostley. This track is not included on this CD. Luckily I still had the record, and was able to make a version of the CD and add the second last track just before Lizzy Borden. Buyer beware however, this CD is not complete!
If You Tapped Your Fingers to the Music in Waiting for Goffman . . ........2005-08-16
Hey, don't waste your money unless you dig the score of really crummy musicals. Some people do. If you are not among that select group then don't believe the good reviews by other buyers (bless their hearts) like I did. Note that Amazon doesn't offer excepts from this aged dog. Good strategy. I bought this cd for the Lizzie Borden song on it but the arrangers even ruined that with a silly bridge section about Lizzie ruining the singers' weekly hoedown. Terrible. Maybe I can unload this cd in a used music store and get a few dollars back. I hope so.
What about the movie?.......2005-07-01
Great, great show! But are any of you people aware that "New Faces of 1952" came out as a movie. The entire stage show was shot mainly from the front as if from a really expensive orchestra seat. Includes Paul Lynde and Ronny Graham in a howling send-up of "Death of a Salesman." Paul Lynde in tattered jungle gear at an afternoon ladies lecture describing his latest safari to darkest Africa. And Eartha doing "Monotonous!" The whole show was filmed.
NOW where is a VHS or DVD of that film? The world is waiting!

This is the most comprehensive of Disney collections, though the Classic Disney series is more up to date. Spread across three discs, the set features hits and forgotten favorites from movies, TV, and the parks (although more thorough work remains to be done in the last regard). Since the Disney catalog is in a state of constant change, this is the only place to get some songs that aren't currently available; these days it's a rare treat to hear "Cruella De Vil" from 101 Dalmations, "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah," from Song of the South, and Annette's theme from The Monkey's Uncle. A thick CD booklet is included, putting the songs in the context of Walt Disney's long, astounding career. --John Sanchez

The Best Dinsey Collection.......2002-01-25
This expansive and detailed collection of Disney music is the best out there. I've had mine since it came out in 1991, and I can't tell you how many times I've played each of it's three CD's!
CD 1 starts off with the first Disney song in a cartoon, 'Turkey in the Straw' from Steamboat Willie and travels through the years (and 27 tracks) to The Sword and the Stone with 'Higitus Figitus'. Along the way films such as Pinocchio, Fantasia, Melody Time, Song of the South, Treasure Island and Sleeping Beauty are covered.
CD 2 picks things up in 1962 with 'Supercalifraglisticexpialidocious', and runs through 20 tracks to 1991's 'Beauty and the Beast'. No rare songs are included on this disc, but a song or two from each animated film made in this time period is nothing to balk at.
CD 3 heads in a new direction (that of live action, cartoon series and the Theme Parks) and serves up many gems and rarely heard recordings. Some of the 31 tracks included are; 'Enjoy It', 'The Ballad of Davy Crockett', 'Mister Piano Man' sung by Annette Funicello, the 'DuckTales Theme', 'Meet Me Down on Main Street', and the entire score for the 'Main Street Electrical Light Parade'!
This set goes one step further by including a 60-page book that illustrates with words, and many full color pictures, Disney's musical legacy and packs it in a record sized keep-sake box. Much of the information in the book is enlightening and it does a superb job of giving backstory to the creation of the songs included. I've refrenced it many times and have always found it helpful.
Yes, this set doesn't include songs from Toy Story, Tarzan or any of the more recent Disney offerings, but remember it was made in 1991. No matter though, over 10 years later, it's still the best and most comprehensive collection to date and believe me, I have enough Disney recordings to know! It's IMPOSSIBLE to be disappointed by this collection!
I LOVE IT!!.......1998-10-03
I take a trip to DIsney World Florida every year and before this latest trip I got this CD set. It is great!! I LOVE IT!!
Jess
A must have for Disney Freaks!.......1998-08-24
This is by far my favorite of Disney Albums. If I could have designed it I would have made the first disc 100% animation, the second for live action and TV, and the third music from the parks.
The only reason that the score isn't higher is because I would have liked to have more music from the parks.
That aside, this is a great addition to the CD collection.
A Jewel in the Crown of Disney Music.......1998-08-05
The Music of Disney: A Legacy In Song is one of the strongest complilations of Disney music to date. The box set offers a sampling of timeless classics such as It's A Small World (After All), Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah and Someday My Prince Will Come. Not to be missed are some lesser known treasures including The Swamp Fox and Fortuosity. The box set features songs from theme park attractions, animated movies and cartoon shorts. With seventy-seven songs to choose from children and adults alike will be entertained for over twenty hours. The arrangement of songs also adds to the uniqueness of The Music of Disney: A Legacy In Song. Medolies of songs are arranged to compliment each other. Theme park songs are arranged fairly close together to allow an even flow throughout the cd. You will find no choppy arrangements in this compilation. Another feature that impressed me was the value of the box set. With the typical cd ranging from $12.99 to $18.99 for ten songs, it is a great valu! e to find almost eighty songs for about forty dollars. The title of this piece is correct in its wording of "A Legacy In Song." It indeed serves as a timeline of Disney music. I highly recommend The Music of Disney: A Legacy In Song to children of all ages. Its a way to bring home the magic of Disney into your own living room.

Broadway's finest score, finest cast album.......2005-11-05
Of all the splendid scores that have echoed through New York theatres, the best of them all may be this gentle 1947 attack on prejudice and stupidity masquerading as fable and whimsy. Surely there are few love songs greater than "Old Devil Moon" and fewer comic songs as good as "When I'm Not Near the Girl I Love".
The genius of lyricist E. Y. Harburg (lyricist for MGM's classic "Wizard of Oz" song score) is on full and clearest display in this collection of brilliant songs. Composer Burton Lane once said that his music always sounded better with a Yip Harburg lyric.
Not only is there not a clunker in the mix but the songs are almost sublime at times. "Look to the Rainbow" is a direct follow-up to the "Wizard of Oz" song "Over the Rainbow".
This recording benefits from the stereo technology unavailable to the original cast. But, most important, this version has the energy and tempo that a busy company (that fully understands the material at hand) can bring to a recording.
The other "Finian's Rainbow" recordings are worth collecting but have problems. While the film soundtrack has great orchestrations, it is handicapped by less than fitting vocals. The 2004 Off-Broadway cast album has supurb vocals, mood and energy but the piano only orchestrations drain some of the lilt off the songs.
It is true that "Finian's Rainbow" is a product of its time but that "dated" quality can be seen as charming without hurting the project. Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Oklahoma!" was likely a direct structure influence and the underlying theme of the contemporary Broadway musical "Brigadoon" has been noted (although "Brigadoon" lacks the humor, satire and social conscience at the core of "Finian's Rainbow").
Note that Yip Harburg also supplied similar song material for the 1943 MGM version of the musical play "Cabin in the Sky" with the songs written especially for the film version (music by "Wizard of Oz" composer Harold Arlen). Film version "Cabin in the Sky" songs "Happiness is Just a Thing Called Joe", "Li'l Black Sheep", "Ain't it the Truth" (comic Lena Horne version and sizzing big band version by Louis Armstrong insanely unused on film) and "Life's Full of Consequences" could have all been interpolated into "Finian's Rainbow".
As the years pass, the message, the music and the wonder of "Finian's Rainbow" sweetens like fine wine.
This 1960 Revival Cast album is a brilliant Yip Harburg sermon set to music. Collect and savor.
Revival superior to original cast recording.......2004-02-18
I have always preferred the performances on the 1960 revival album to the original cast recording. Although David Wayne won a Tony award for the creation of his Og, the Leprechaun, there is nothing vocally in his two songs to indicate anything special about the interpretation, while Howard Morris in the revival embellishes his vocal comedic acting with inventiveness and delight. Jeannie Carson is a superior vocalist to Ella Logan and Biff McGuire is less beefy than Donald Richards. The orchestrations are bright here and recorded in stereo, not the low fidelity of the 1947 original. In addition the non-dependence on 3.5 minute 78-rpm side limits allows the revival to give us extra material from the show - the LOOK TO THE RAINBOW dance, the reprise of SOMETHING SORT OF GRANDISH between Og and the children and the finale chorus of GLOCCA MORRA.
When one looks at the structure of the show it does strike one oddly that the four ballads come first in the show - after the opening choral number - with only one of the comic songs interspersed before the fourth ballad. Then come four of the five satirical songs all in a row, followed by the second comic song. It's unusual to have a show's songs bunched like this by type rather than blended for variety.
It's also an oddity that both an Irish and a Scottish fantasy should arrive on Broadway the same year (1947). While BRIGADOON has gone on to continued revivals and a healthy life, FINIAN'S RAINBOW due to its politically dated libretto, has faded from public view, rarely revived, and probably needing a program glossary for audiences to catch all the satire based on popular figures and movements of its day.
What does go on is the score. The four ballads have entered the standard repertoire and are the main reasons for purchasing either cast album. The cleverness of the lyrics in the satirical numbers can't match the sheer beauty and feeling in OLD DEVIL MOON, IF THIS ISN'T LOVE, GLOCCA MORRA and LOOK TO THE RAINBOW.
For my money the revival is a far superior purchase - consider all of the remastering involved in bringing the 1947 original back to the public, including use of three alternate takes - which hardly in my mind constitutes recreating the original cast recording as released to the public in 1947.
I want the MOVIE SOUNDTRACK.......2004-02-01
I love the MOVIE SOUNDTRACK. I want the Movie Soundtrack. I need the Movie Soundtrack. When will someone put the Movie Soundtrack on CD???
Excellent STEREO recording of Lane - Harburg triumph.......2003-02-20
This 1960 revival recording is an excellent addition to the Finian's Rainbow canon. This revival is fabulously cast and the performances are stellar, so I will not comment on them further. This recording takes advantage of the then new 2-channel stereo process in recorded music. And the LP format allowed for more music to be included than on the original cast album, for which songs had to be truncated and/or sped up to fit the limited playing time of 78 RPM sides.
While the 1947 original will always remain the definitive recorded version of the score, fans of the show will find this a welcomed addition as well. Performances are stellar, sound quality is perfect, what more can I say. And perhaps an even better recorded version is the 1968 Warner Bros. movie soundtrack, now out of print on LP, but available as a limited edition CD release from Rhino.
Whichever album you choose, FINIAN'S RAINBOW cannot disappoint.
"Finian's Rainbow" might be dated, but its still pretty good.......2001-02-17
As strange as it might seem "Finian's Rainbow" is exactly what it seems like, the odd fusion of two different non-musical ideas. E. Y. "Yip" Harburg, the immortal lyricist for "The Wizard of Oz," had two non-musical ideas. The first was about a leprechaun who has three wishes while the second was about a bigoted white Senator who is turned black and becomes victimized by his own racial prejudice. "Finian's Rainbow" is the result of this odd collision of diverse ideas. With a book by Harburg and Fred Saidy and music by Burton Lane, whose lesser known musical works include "Hold On to Your Hats" with Al Jolson and "On a Clear Day You Can See Forever." This original cast album features the 1960 revival production directed and choreographed by Herbert Ross and stars Jeannie Carson as Sharon McLonergan, Bobby Howes as her father Finian, Biff McGuire as Woody Mahoney, Howard Morris as Og the leprechaun and Sorrell Booke as Senator Billboard Rawkins.
The setting for the show is Rainbow Valley in the state of Missitucky, where the farm of Woody Mahoney and his mute sister Susan is about to be auctioned off to the evil Senator Rawkins. Woody is short on the back taxes but the day is saved by Finian McLonergan and his daughter Sharon, who now become part owners of Rainbow Valley. Finian has stolen a crock o' gold from the leprechauns and wants to bury it near Fort Knox so it will grow. He also has plans for the three wishes that come with the crock. Woody and Sharon fall in love, but then Og the leprechaun shows up wanting his crock o' gold back. When the Senator learns there is gold in the Valley, he makes a blatant attempt to seize the land from the black sharecroppers. An outraged Sharon wishes the Senator would know what it was like to be black, and since she is standing over the buried crock o' gold, the wish comes true as everybody celebrates at the end of Act I. From there on it is just a question of working out all of the romantic entanglements and dealing with the Senator's pigmentational problem.
As social satire "Finian's Rainbow" was certainly dated by the time the Francis Ford Coppola film version was released in 1968. But even if it is not a timeless musical, it is certainly above average. The chief redeeming value are the songs: "Old Devil Moon" and "When I'm Not Near the Girl I Love" are first class Broadway standards. "How Are Things in Glocca Morra" and "Look to the Rainbow" are lovely songs sung by the leading lady (although my preference is always going to be for the Petula Clark versions from the film), while "When the Idle Poor Become the Idle Rich," "That Great Come-and-Get-It Day" and "The Begat" are solid ensemble pieces. You can always just forget the plot and enjoy the music and the lyrics. There might be peers (Sondheim, Porter, your favorite's name here) but there simply is not a better lyricist in the history of the Broadway theater than "Yip" Harburg.

Sir Noel Coward is KING!.......2007-01-09
Very few of us lesser mortals can compete with the genius of Noel Coward, however we certainly can enjoy it! A master of lyric, pun, innendo, and rhyme, Noel will keep all laughing throughout this collection.
Caberet at its Best.......2006-07-11
This is a live recording of a Noel Coward performance in the 1950's at the Desert Inn. The songs are quite a bit racier than his usual studio recordings from the 1920's and 30's; all very witty and very fun. A stand out performance of Cole Porter's "Let's Do It" features references to everyone from Somerset Maugham to Senator Joe McCarthy. Unique.
witty, classic genius.......2005-12-13
My old LP was lost in a recent move! I have loved this album along with "Noel and Gertie" since I first heard it at the age of twelve. Sir Noel Coward is not to be missed.

Parent's blessing!.......2004-01-02
I have two of these cd's. My kids are 2 and 4 and I bought the first cd when my daughter was a newborn. These have been a true blessing and most evenings, put ME to sleep along with my daughter as I'm getting her settled and to sleep. SOO soothing and relaxing.......just beautiful. The original cd had gotten a scratch on one song so I'm here on Amazon trying to buy yet another one. Great just to play when the kids are wound up just to sooth them.
A Real Snooze..........2002-10-24
This compilation of songs is most restful for both the young and old. I received this CD as a gift years before the birth of my daughter and I used it's calming effect while studying calculus.
While working in a daycare this CD had twenty 3-5 year old children fast asleep within minutes. Very cool!
I just purchased a new copy of this CD as the old one is scratched and worn out. I now look forward to sharing this soothing music with my newborn baby girl. ****I highly recommend this CD for putting your little one to sleep.****
WONDERFUL - if only it was available.......2002-08-19
As a highly active amateur cellist, this is my signature baby gift to all friends and family - all have commented at it's soothing effect when played at naptime or bedtime. This is a wonderful collection, well-played - BUT IT'S NEVER AVAILABLE. I'm now on a constant search to find used copies. I can only hope that they get back on the ball and restart production on this CD - so that all of you can enjoy it!!
Get two so you can give one as a gift..........2001-11-07
This CD is made up of instrumental cello renditions of popular lullabyes.
My wife and I have given several of these CD's to parents of young children in the US and abroad. Without exception, the soothing cello tunes help mother and child alike to relax at the end of a busy day.
Webber performs sensitive interpretations of these long-beloved classics, including Braham's Lullabye and Rock a Bye Baby. The cuts provide wonderful comfort to a stressed world. My wife and I listen happily while reading and sitting in front of the crackling fire.
We love this album and are ordering 6 so we have some on hand for gifts to new mothers.
Beautifully performed soothing, calming music.......1999-03-19
Julian Webber performs masterfully in this relaxing collection of peaceful lullabies. His technique is superb, and this CD will leave you snoring soundly if you play it at night, like I do.
