4 out of 5 stars Salute to America.......2006-07-27

Very similar in quality and music to I Love A Parade and a very upbeat reminder of why we are a patriotic nation. The arrangements and quality of the songs are great.

4 out of 5 stars A good choice but..........2005-06-29

It is not the best CD that I have bought but it is an honest one. The orchestration is good, the choice of tunes is excellent and the tunes are well played. As you know, it is always difficult to say : I like it or I hate it because hearing a CD is a question of personal point of view. In my case, I may not say that I like it or I hate it, I prefer some other orchestration but it us a good CD.

2 out of 5 stars Ho-Hum.......2005-06-08

I wanted some rousing marching music. This album is half asleep. The sound quality is poor. Apparently Mr. Williams writes better music than he conducts.

5 out of 5 stars "Boston Pops".. Alway's do the Job!.......2001-10-03

John Williams/Boston Pops.. Salute to America.

And they do! They salute America! This is a wonderful C.D
Battle Hymn of the Republic, is great..

New York, New York,will bring tears to your eyes!
12 renditions in all..

All these are performed wonderfully, and well worth the money!

I would recommend this to anyone who loves patriotic music, it will stir the heart and soul of Americans....

5 out of 5 stars Full-Spirited.......2000-09-02

I'm a classical music/opera person for the most part. But I find this CD entralling. Even the organization of the CD is ideal-almost like a symphony--with the rousing Candide Overture and the musical medleys at the beginning, the patriotic songs as the B section, and the Dixieland and other music from American musicals to finish up. And I particularly like the orchestration of the medleys. A wonderful CD.

Like most true originals, the Ramones embodied a dizzying array of contradictions. As punk godfathers, they became the archetype for a rebellious musical ethos that could often confuse the baby for the bath water, yet at heart they were 1960s pop- and bubblegum-worshipping reactionaries. The seeming unity symbolized by their street-hood uniform (ripped jeans, deck shoes, and black leather jackets) and name (nicked from an early nom de plume of Beatle Paul) belied turmoil both personal and personnel. And the dumber-than-dumb stance of the likes of "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue," "Cretin Hop," and "Teenage Lobotomy" actually masked some of the shrewdest rock ever recorded. If Rhino/Warner Archive's two-disc anthology seems like hardly enough room to document a band with a quarter-century legacy, it's good to remember that the Ramones prided themselves on stripping every song they attempted to its elemental core, then halving it again with their patented buzzsaw, double-stop tempo. Journalist David Fricke's enclosed history is telling, if ironically packaged in a glossy hard-back edition that seems more befitting the likes of Fleetwood Mac. The nearly five dozen tracks here, reaching from the early '70s to the late '90s, stand remarkably outside of time--just like true originals. --Jerry McCulley

4 out of 5 stars 4.5 stars!.......2007-04-30

You know how I got into the Ramones? Well, from reading Green Day's biography 'The Story of Green Day', Billie-Joe said that at least half of what you hear on the radio these days has been influenced by the Ramones. So I decided to check them out, and I LOVED them! I now love them almost as much as I love Green Day. They have a colourful history and great music! You should so check out this anthology of their greatest hits of all time, and if you don't then you're a moron.

4 out of 5 stars It's a Sensation.......2007-02-11

(I'm no kid, but I'm a thinker)
I own all of there Studio albums pluse three live ones and to be honest I bought this for only two resons...
1. The tracks I Don't Wanna Live This Life (Anymore and the C.J. vocal verson of R.A.M.O.N.E.S.
2. I wanted something I could just grab to least to in the car and not have to drag all my CDs with me.
Now the songs themselfs I'd give 5 stars to but there are some songs on this CD collection I thought wern't imporatant to a collection like this and there are a few I would like to have seen.
What should not have been included...
I Remember you
Here Today, Gone Tommorrow
Surfin' Bird
Don't Come Close
I Can't Make It On Time
I'm Affected
She's a Sensation
I'm Not Afraid of Life
With that I was really upset to find the song "We're a Happy Family" (A Ramones Classic) Not on this collection. Johnny once said himself that the Ramones collection out there we're focusing too much on there softer stuff to get sales. This doesn't seem much differnt to me. But at the same time you can't put just there hits on because they never had one.
The song I wish would be one this collection...
Today Your Love, Tommorrow the World
We're a Happy Family
Do You Wanna Dance
I'm Aganist It
I Wanted Everything
Outsider
Warthog
Love Kills

I guess over all a alright collection. Real True-Blue fans might be a little upset but thats life, get over it!
If your looking for just a start to the band get "Loud, Fast: Their Toughest Hits"
Gabba Gabba Hey!

5 out of 5 stars Heads out of butts and fingers out of ears.......2006-12-29

I reading the reviews for this CD I have noticed that some are not reviews of the CD it self or sound quality but of the band itself. I love every thing the ramones have done. They are one of the few bands that didn't change for anyone. I don't give a flying rat what you think about the band. If you have a problem with the band the tell it to some one who cares. I wanna hear if it's got a good track listing or a good booklet, not if you like the band or not. What the heck are you doing spending $[...] on a band your just looking into anyway? As for you who say their not "punk" They started punk so wouldn't that mean stuff like Green Day and (barf!) Blink 182 are NOT? Yeah, get your heads out of your butts and cry a river to some one who cares. Review the CD not the Band.
If your a Ramones fan you will like the track listing and the booklet. If you just want a small look into the band then go for Loud, Fast The Ramones. For half the price it gives you a quick look into the band that changed the face of music.
Gabba Gabba Hey!

5 out of 5 stars Gabba gabba hey!.......2006-12-09

the ramones are probably my favorite band. it is well known that their first 3 albums are considered classics. so if you don't want to buy the anthology you should pick up on of the first 3. ok but the problem with that is then you don't get anything from end of the century or the other great songs after those 3 (there weren't too many) with this anthology you get the basics "blitzkrieg bop" "judy is a punk" "california sun" "beat on the brat" you also get "rock 'n' roll highschool" "do you remember rock 'n' roll radio?" "danny says" and that's on disc one... on disc two you get their harder songs like "the kkk took my baby away" "my brain is hanging upside down" "pet semetery" the second disc is okay but there are a lot better songs that the ramones made that were kept out of this set. for instance there isn't any "oh oh i love her so" "you're gonna kill that girl" "today your love, tomorrow the world" and so on... the quality of the songs is great and despite a few good songs getting passed over i would recommend this to someone as an introduction into one of the greatest and most underappreciated bands ever. also if you really like the ramones you should check out "End of the Century" on DVD

4 out of 5 stars minus a star because i personally would recommend buying ALL of the albums.......2006-11-17

i, sadly used to be one of those stupid kids who shyed away from The Ramones(about a year ago...im young) because i wasn't really much of a hardcore fan of blitzkrieg bop or i wanna be sedated and thats all you heard when you heard the Ramones...maybe a rocket to russia track here and there, but mostly, it was one of those bands that i mistakenly clumped in with the sex pistols(a mediocre band)

i could slap myself then. The Ramones are one of the only punk bands to give me the "awe" goosebumps. I mean along with the Damned, i think the Ramones are the co-kings of the 77 punk thing as far as i can tell. this band itself is a really unique band ....joey is the rather unique cartoonish looking vocalist..johnny is the one who is kinda of like the father figure..silent in voice, but always showing how punk was supposed to be with his unique political views and killer guitar...dee dee was the most street punk of the group.

yeah to newcomers, id recommend this, but id really recommend you start with the early albums and then work your way up...please dont throw them by the wayside simply because "i wanna be sedated" and "blitzkrieg bop" are overplayed. dont worship bands that march like sheep towards every scene following dead kennedys wannabe band and listen to one of the the best. the innovaters!!

5 out of 5 stars Great to Hear All those great Voices from the Past.......2007-07-05

I just wanted to confirm what the first reviewer had to say about this CD. To hear Ethyl Merman, Mary Martin, Andrea McCardle etc. singing their trademark songs brought a lot of memories from the mid-centry musical theater back again. The last song by Glynis Johns is especially poignant.
You certainly can't beat the price!

5 out of 5 stars A Good One!.......2006-11-10

This is a very good CD, mostly because it's the original artists. I've had some that were re-recorded by no name artists that were ghastly. This one is a really good one--including the sound quality. If I had one wish, I would wish it were longer!

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

5 out of 5 stars Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

5 out of 5 stars Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

5 out of 5 stars Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

2 out of 5 stars not to great.......2007-04-04

We were disappointed with this CD, but for the price I guess we can't expect much. I didn't care for the new style presentation of the songs. I like a more traditional rendering.

3 out of 5 stars Not so bad, 100 tunes for 4$.......2005-06-22

I red the comments of two other people who have bought this 4 CD BOX SET and it is not really so bad. I will even add that there are some excellent tunes. However, I must agree with the fact that few tunes seem to have been recorded 40 or 50 years ago, mainly when you hear the scratches of an old turntable but it is just 2 or 3 tunes. Furthermore, if you do not know American music, it is a good BOX SET to buy if you consider that you received 4 CD for 4$ including 100 tunes. On these 4 CD, I have heard some orchestration that I have never heard before and I consider that they are different but interesting. Any way, after hearing these 100 tunes, you will say to yourself that you like this tune, this other tune, this other tune and so on and you will be able to buy a more expensive CD with the tunes that you like. However, I have bought many CDs in the last few weeks and as you know, there are always some tunes that you like and some tunes that you do not like on every CD that you will buy. So, don't buy it at 25$ but at 4 or 5$ dollars, it is a very good choice for 100 tunes.

1 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for........2004-07-04

You get what you pay for. The singers put their own spin on the singing of each song. If you didn't hear the words you would not recognize some of them. Even some of the music sounds like a bad recording of music played on a turntable. Definitely not worth the price.

1 out of 5 stars Now I know why there were no song samples to listen to ..........2004-07-04

I wish this review had been here when I was thinking of purchasing it. I guess you get what you pay for. If you are thinking of buying this, you are better off recording your own CDs (or at least buying one that you can listen to a sampling of the songs). This album includes songs that were mere recordings of the songs playing on an old record player. It's almost so unbelievable that it is funny.

Album Description

More marches, waltzes, and fox trots in this recording of the New Verbeeck Band Organ at Seabreeze Park in Upstate New York. On a hill above scenic Lake Ontario, the music of the band organ can be heard on the breezes drifting over the blue water. Twenty-three tunes bring back the sounds of summer from Seabreeze Park - the whirling carousel and prancing horses spin around to the music of childhood, and this fabulous recording captures the wonderful memories. Grab the popcorn, and come for a ride! This completely digital recording is crystal clear and an oversized insert includes pictures and fond memories of Merrick Price - to whom the album is dedicated. The last song was recorded on the carousel while it was moving - an innovative idea that captures the sensation of really being on the ride is enhanced by wearing headphones. This piece of Americana in music - a must for the audio collector, carousel enthusiast, or fan of mechanical music, is a one-of-a-kind gift item.

Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars carousel.......2007-01-03

Carousel Memories does not have the luster that I had expected. The music is not as clear as I would have liked, however, it does have some good qualities that make it worth while to listen.

5 out of 5 stars The Ideal Merry-Go-Round.......2005-07-18

This is a recording by and for merry-go-round lovers. It assembles 23 tracks of mostly characteristic carousel music, played upon a newly constructed band organ handmade by Belgian Johnny Verbeeck to replicate the old Wurlitzer 165 destroyed by a fire around 1995. The fire also claimed most of the carousel itself, which was rebuilt using some restored parts from the original (PTC#36). The recording site is Seabreeze Park on Lake Ontario in upper New York.

In another review I mentioned that that CD offered a partial and rather idealized carousel experience, for it could only provide the sound, and that sound was much more refined and free of ambient noise than would be encountered during an actual carousel ride. That comment applies as well to this recording, and perhaps more so, for the band organ in a typical operating carousel never sounded so good as the one here. This instrument has a remarkably lovely, sweet tone and, being brand new, is in perfect condition. The rolls used were obtained from no less a source than the Library of Congress, and represent a very choice selection.

The music itself includes mostly waltzes, marches, polkas, and one-time popular songs, such as Beer Barrel Polka, Sweet Rosie O'Grady, Liberty Bell, and Scatter-Brain. Less to be expected, but supremely apt, is the fine waltz from Richard Rodger's overture to the musical show Carousel. This last was experimentally recorded on the moving carousel, and thus provides an especially realistic auditory image.

For merry-go-round and band organ enthusiasts this recording might well occupy a place of honor in their CD collection. For those who desire a more realistic, though less ideal, recording I would recommend the old 1973 Takoma Records release "Last Chance on the Merry-Go-Round" (# A 1038), which I believe is no longer in the catalog. (Takoma Records was acquired in 1995 by Fantasy Records.) My personal copy of A 1038 is an LP, and I suspect no CD version was ever released. That recording was made at the carousel on the pier at Santa Monica, California, shortly before the pier was to be demolished. (Thus the title of the recording.) Since it was made while the carousel was actually in operation, the sounds of bystanders and children, along with the carousel drive motor are included. I don't know what ever became of that carousel or its band organ, but would guess they were moved to some collection somewhere. In any case, I have fond memories of wandering along the pier on a fine Saturday afternoon and watching and listening to the carousel and its excited young customers.

4 out of 5 stars A hilarious middle finger to the 70's.......2006-06-05

It's funny to imagine some trendy hippie finding this at a record store in the 70's and seeing song titles like "Master Race Rock" and "Back to Africa". It's even funnier to imagine some white supremacist buying this album for exactly those songs only to hear "They didn't know we were Jews" on the first track. It's hilarious to hear the way they make fun of the Beach Boys with the harmonies on "(I Live For) Cars and Girls" or the even more hilarious Sonny & Cher cover. They send up everything from the transience of rock stardom to hippies to the idiocy of 70's hedonism. But for a band that plays it up for laughs, they're a lot smarter than they let on. You have to be in on the joke to enjoy this band, but enjoy them you will!

What about the music? It's somewhere between early Alice Cooper or Kiss and the New York Dolls or MC5, with chunky riffs and guitar leads and pounding rhythms. The punk elements of the band are more in their attitude on this album because they have a definite 70's hard rock vibe. But hey, it was 1975, "fast and loud" sounded totally different back then. It's quintessential rock n' roll -- music for unpretentious dudes who just want to raise hell and have a good time.

4 out of 5 stars great, but not my fave.......2005-10-19

How could you not pick up a CD/LP (in my time) with a pix of some goofball in a singlet and a glitter jacket in the background sporting the name Handsome Dick Manitoba?!? Curiosity is the crux of R & R and this was for the good.
The tunes are timeless--Next Big Thing, 2 Tub Man,....
They Rock And They're funny.
C'mon--talking about White Castle, Vitamin C, "ralphing", gasoline shortage, fat chicks....
They wrote songs that every schlub could identify with.
My only 'problem' is in the production---too overdubbed in the sense of the rhythm tracks are down and then BOOM all of a sudden a lead guitar comes from nowhere and blasts the song to death.
I love this LP but not as much as 'Manifest Destiny' which a lot of people rate as weak.

4 out of 5 stars Too stoopid for you? Try too briliant (4.5 stars really).......2004-11-21

This album works as both a parody and a loving tribute to rock 'n' roll, and manages to be one of the best rock 'n' roll albums ever. The first half is okay, but the second half contains five of my favorite songs. This was one of the few albums in the 70's that tried to save rock 'n' roll from Frampton and his evil ilk. The covers of "I Got You Babe" and "California Sun" manage to be better than the originals, and "I Live For Cars and Girls" and "Weekend" are songs that the Beach Boys just wish they could've written. Some PC freaks may hate "Back to Africa" or "Master Race", but the Dictators are not serious, they're just kidding around. So what are you waiting for? Pick up this true R-N-R classic.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best Rock n Roll albums.......2003-12-24

This has got to be one of my favorite albums. I knew a few songs off of it, when i saw it for six bucks at a used CD store. I'm glad to say that it had to be the best six bucks I ever spent (or maybe it was on Patti Smith's Horses). "Go Girl Crazy" is a loud Rock n Roll album, packed with plenty of humor. The lyrics are fun, and even go so far as to insult Lou Reed (even though velvet underground is all good, it's one of my favorite lines in the album), who basically created the 70's New York rock scene (which the Dictators are a part of). All in all, I highly recomend this album to anyone who's looking for a fun rock n roll packed weekend.

4 out of 5 stars Good stupid fun.......2003-07-11

I bought this album after reading "Please Kill Me," the history of the New York punk scene. The author, Legs McNeill, says somewhere in the book that he and his cronies at Punk magazine were huge fans of the Dictators' album "Go Girl Crazy" back in the summer of 1975. This made me curious and I ordered the album from Amazon. I'm glad I did. Every song is a mini-masterpiece of anarchic, goofy, party rock. The Dictators were perhaps one of the most unpretentious bands in the history of rock. They saw themselves as a joke and invite their listeners to laugh along with them. But they also had a knack for pairing sharp lyrics with catchy guitar hooks, creating some truly memorable moments. My favorite opening line on the album: "Who's that boy with the sandwich in his hand?"
