Great Best Of.......2007-03-13

I'm not a huge fan of Fatboy Slim but this CD is great. Most of the songs you can hear all the time and there were a few I have not heard of at all. While most of these pay on commericals or in movies (mainstream) its good background music for parties.

Who IS Fatboy Slim?.......2007-01-12

Well, I had NO IDEA who he was. Until I listened to this CD and recognized almost EVERY SINGLE ONE of the songs on it! These songs have been in TV commercials, movies, etc. We bought one for my brother in law for Christmas. EXCELLENT CD!!!! If you want to get a Fatboy Slim CD, this is the one to get.

Spectacular.......2006-11-29

This is what happens when you compile the best songs of one of the best DJs ever. If you're a big fan, there's not much new here, and those who collect many CDs probably have most if not all of these tracks already. But if you're a big fan, as I am, having the collection "under one roof" is worth the additional cost.

Addictive.......2006-09-29

I've been a casual fan of Fatboy Slim for years, but have never delved into their entire body of work. However, since I picked up this CD, I've become addicted. Why Try Harder is a great into to Fatboy Slim. Give it a try, and I'm sure you'll love it too. BTW - the new track "That Old Pair of Jeans" is the best FBS track yet.

Why look harder?.......2006-09-14

If you want to hear, enjoy, and show off to others the genius that is Fatboy Slim, here you go.

As Matthew Blissmer said in his review, this is a GREAT CD to put on for friends that don't want to hear the (often excessively) long versions of each of the songs. I always ran into that problem... I loved the songs but they had awkward lead-in and lead-outs. In "Why Try Harder?", ALL the songs are beautifully edited, starting and stopping at exactly perfect times for the full effect of the song. No minute-long lead-out for "Going Out of My Head", and "Brimful of Asha" (one of my favorites) is cut perfectly down to size from the 7:30 full cut.

I can put this in a CD player and hit Shuffle and not be nervous about hitting an embarrassing song. They're all great.

If you're new to Fatboy Slim, or you've been following him for years, it doesn't matter, this is your CD. Clean up all those illegally-downloaded albums and mixes you were too hesitant to purchase, because this has it all in one neatly packaged, easily-purchasable CD! Time to pay your respects to the totally awesome Norman Cook in this totally awesome collection. Why look harder?

Jamaican filmmaker Perry Henzell made reggae an integral player in his gritty 1973 saga of a renegade Kingston singer who becomes a modern Robin Hood, casting one of the style's earliest stars, Jimmy Cliff, in the lead, and filling this soundtrack--here presented in a remastered version--with classics from Toots & the Maytals ("Pressure Drop," "Sweet and Dandy"), Desmond Dekker ("Shanty Town"), the Melodians ("Rivers of Babylon"), and the Slickers ("Johnny Too Bad"). Cliff himself gets pole position, however, getting in the first ("You Can Get It If You Really Want") and last ("The Harder They Come") words in this first-rate reggae primer, which also features Cliff's enduring "Many Rivers to Cross." --Sam Sutherland

Essential Reggae.......2007-06-02

If you like reggae, you should have this CD. If you could only own 5 reggae CDs of all that is out there, this deserves to be one of those 5. I never tire of listening to these tracks after all these years. The other reviewers have ably described this music. I heartily agree. 5 more stars for The Harder They Come.

didn't think it could be done. this is great. this does jimmy cliff proud.

The best from Jamaica...and Alabama.......2007-03-17

Still the best classic reggae collection, although as one other reviewer noted, some tracks do sound "Americanized." No surprise. "Many Rivers to Cross" and "Sitting in Limbo" were recorded with the legendary Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section in Alabama. This wasn't documented at the time (I learned it when I interviewed the MSRS in 1979) because apparently Cliff did not have the proper immigration papers to "work" in the USA when Chris Blackwell decided to bring him up for the quick sessions.

one of my favorite albums of all-time........2007-02-13

this album holds its own against the very greatest albums of any genre. even if you are not a fan of reggae, i can't imagine you not loving this cd. there is so much joy, energy, passion and soul bursting from this music that it uplifts me each time i hear it, still fresh sounding to the ears 22 years after first finding it. jimmy cliff's vocals, in particular, are amazing. the songs which he performs on this album, "you can get it if you really want," "many rivers to cross," "the harder they come," and "sitting in limbo," are amongst the finest in the whole canon of reggae. each tune included here is a gem. don't let life go by without having this music in it.

Not as reggae as I wanted.......2007-01-16

I am a bit disappointed in the CD. It doesn't seem to be REAL reggae as I think of it. It seems more like Americanized reggae. Maybe I just need to get a Marley CD. 'You Can Get It If You Really Want' sounds like a song from Sesame Street.

Album Description

Full Title - Underachievers Please Try Harder. Camera Obscura create lilting, sophisticated melodies that draw similarities to the work of contemporaries such as Belle & Sebastian, The Clientele or Trembling Blue Stars, but are also rooted in more classic sounds such as Nick Drake, Donovan or Petula Clark. Songs drift and linger like clouds in a summer sky, with gentle hooks and breezy vocals that stick in your head like a pleasant memory. Features 14 tracks including an Mpeg video of 'Teenager'. Digipak. Merge. 2004.

A completely enchanting, delightful album.......2006-09-15

Anyone hearing Camera Obscura for the first time will instantly be reminded of Belle and Sebastian, especially if they are aware that both bands hail from Glasgow. There is no question that Belle and Sebastian is the major influence on the band; even if they have other influences--and one can hear many in their music--this one predominates. It isn't just that Camera Obscura's singer (and a very sweet singer she is) Tracyanne Campbell sounds a lot like Belle and Sebastian's Isobel Campbell (apparently no relation--but, then, isn't "Campbell" in Scotland like "Smith" in the US?). The arrangements and feel and touch of the band sound terribly like B & S. That one city could turn out two such exquisite indie pop bands is pretty remarkable, even if the one sounds a lot like the other.

But though Camera Obscura reminds one of Belle and Sebastian, the resemblence never, ever gets in the way of the music. Both bands generate a feeling of joy and delight when I listen to them.

The only complaint I have with UNDERACHIEVERS PLEASE TRY HARDER is that they have packed their very best songs at the beginning of the album. My two favorite songs on the disc are the fine "Suspended from Class" and the even finer (and very, very Belle and Sebastianesque) "Keep It Clean." My next favorite song, however, might be "A Sister's Social Agony." Mind you, the rest of the album never truly disappoints, but it seems a bit of a downer to kick things off with such great songs and then never quite get back up to that level. Of course, this might just be me. Another fan might enjoy later cuts more. But I'm in love with "Keep It Clean." It currently is in my Top 25 Most Played list on my iPod. I love everything about the song, its casual, melodic guitar work, the delicate electric piano, and most of all Tracyanne Campbell's relaxed, almost flippant singing. I delight in the way she is so patient with the words that she sometimes seems to finish a line merely as an afterthought. It is one of those songs that I sometimes will play if I'm having a tough day. It never failed to lighten my mood and make me just a little bit happier than I was.

One thing that excites me about Camera Obscura is that they apparently are improving with each album. I very much enjoyed their first album, BIGGEST, BLUEST HI-FI, but this album was a definite improvement over that. And their most recent album, LET'S GET OUT OF THIS COUNTRY (the best song off that one, the stunning "Lloyd, I'm Ready to Be Heartbroken," has achieved some success as a single), is even better. It was better, in fact, than Belle and Sebastian's own 2006 release, THE LIFE PURSUIT. So who knows, perhaps the best is yet to come.

Cool.......2006-07-04

They are totally unknown here. I only got to know this group on the net and i have found gem in Camera Obscura, with such sweet melodies, angelic voice of Traceyann Campbell and the rest of the band is awesome as well! Im hooked with Suspended from Class, Keep it Clean, Number One Son & Teenager.

Cute 50's-60's stylings. Melodic -- Wonderful........2006-06-12

Seems like many people are mad that this isn't Bell & Sebastian. Well, It's not. It's probably closer to the stylings of The Clientelle or late era Yo La Tengo -- and they're not Scottish...?
Anyway, there are few, if any, synths -- the warm recording and instrumentation are all they need to make their music work. The girl/boy vocals are each unlike anything sung in at least 20 years and together just make me want to melt.
Also, fans of Saturday Looks Good to Me will enjoy, but I must warn you -- this album never really rocks out. It keeps a cool melodic additude throughout. Lunar Sea is bliss.

Dont listen to the first review, this record is ace. The vocals are very beautiful and genuine. Overall, this record has an intimate bewitching beauty that drags you in with each listen.

get this album. you will find yourself chained to it........2005-10-05

i've been listening to this for three days now, with very little in between. see, normally, i listen to various music which would fall under the categories indie and emo, but not just to be emo. before i found this i was on an at the drive-in binge mixed in with some drive like jehu, sparta, million dead, fugazi and cursive. i saw this album on some emo girl's xanga, and though i usually don't trust emo girl's music taste, i liked the cover, and figured i'd get it and see how i liked it. i have no idea what anybody means by folk pop, because this doesn't seem related to the folk im familiar with, except that it's pretty much oblivious to subject matter. but anyway...this album is really great...production, tracyanne's voice, the beats and selection of instruments. my only complaint is the guy's singing. it's not unbearable but close. especially on the song "your picture". i have to skip over that now, it's like they give him the least rhythmic songs to sing on too. the two bonus tracks aren't really very necessary either. this album isn't emo - i didn't even have to say that - but it is something people could appreciate for...the same reason. make sense? best songs are "suspended from class", "teenager", "number one son" and "lunar sea". light one up and put this cd on, it'll feel good.

Rockin 70's unknowns.......2007-06-02

This is a fairly unknown 70's hard rock band. Their biggest ablum was nature of the beast, but in my opinion this is a better album. It is faster and more upbeat where NOTB was heavier and darker.

Their best work was "Live at the El Macombo" where they opened up for the stones, sadly that album seems to be unavailable.

If you like this genre and are looking for more off the wall bands in the same vein try Fastway as well.

April Wine's best.......2007-04-28

If you are a fan of rock, Canadian rock or April Wine, Harder Faster is their best work. It was their first album with the three guitar attack and their first album that received decent airplay in the States. Nature of the Beast, AW's next album was commercially more successful, but it was musically not as good. AW was on top of their game with this album. Their sound was raw, not polished like their next records and it was great rock & roll. The three guitars gave them their own unique sound and allowed interplay between them that was unlike anybody else. Everyone should have a little AW in their collection and this is the album to have. AW was not as good before or after Harder Faster. Enjoy!

!980 release still shines. This thing ROCK'S!.......2007-04-01

Another CD that just kicks it!!! in a good car system. April Wine was a staple with girls back in the day; I promise every old-schooler that listened to them will attest to that fact. Amazon is giving this away,so buy it. Guitar drivin' rock from Canada---get some!

Drunk on April Wine.......2006-11-10

Harder...Faster; what I want to say would only get censored so lets just say that I knew a most beautiful blonde in highschool that loved April Wine (oh, the memories)...use your imagination but get this CD!

Two Words!!.......2006-08-10

Their best!!

That's the only way to describe it. It was just one record before the Nature Of The Beast release that brought them world wide recognition, however Harder Faster was the one that really got the ball rolling as it is indeed a very good release from a very good band.

Great Album, but not twice as good as the original.......2006-10-04

It has been well documentated that the originial soundtrack is one of the greatest and most influencual reggae albums of all time. An amazing mix that was put together is a weekend. When the deluxe version came out I was extremely excited that one of the great albums of all time had doubled in size. While the second CD is very good I realize now that my expectations were a little high. If you do not own the original, get this album. If you own the original think about buying some contributors cd's directly like Toot & The Maytalls.

Double the reggae essentialness.......2006-03-04

The original version of this film soundtrack is the single most influential reggae album in the genre's history, and the most listenable reggae record from beginning to end. That's always been a bit surprising, given that the film's director selected the tracks in a harried weekend of picking-and-choosing among songs that struck a personal resonance. It's doubly amazing that the songs fit the film so perfectly, and that Chris Blackwell was able to weave the tracks from various artists into such a perfect, cohesive album. This is the essential introduction to reggae music, and a collection whose spirit and musicality simply never ceases to amaze.

Hip-O's 2-CD deluxe reissue couldn't really double the magic of the album's original dozen tracks, but the eighteen additions do help flesh out reggae's 1968-72 period. Highlights include Desmond Dekkar's anthemic "Israelites," Johnny Nash's pop-crossover "I Can See Clearly Now" (as well as his take of Bob Marley's "Guava Jelly"), the Maytals' biographical "54-46 (That's My Number)" (as well as their catchy sing-along "Pomp & Pride"), The Melodians soulful "Sweet Sensastion," and Jimmy Cliff's alternate take, "The Bigger They Come The Harder They Fall."

The packaging includes song lyrics, notes from director Perry Henzell and producer Chris Blackwell, and liners from reggae writer David Katz. The sound quality is sharp throughout. The deluxe edition is a bit pricey as an introduction (especially considering the nice-pricing of the original single disc), but worthwhile for anyone who's loved the original vinyl to death.

How jamaica is .......2005-02-08

The thing that I didn't like abut the movie was that how the people talk and the jobs they had selling drugs and also where they live.

The thing that I like about the movie was the music they have and how Jamaica is.-- Christina---

The First Album to Set the Stage For Reggae.......2004-12-01

While Bob Marley & the Wailers put the reggae genre at large in the mainstream of music, Jimmy Cliff's "The Harder They Come" set the stage for Marley in 1972, creating America's first real cult-following of the Jamaican music with songs like Jimmy Cliff's title track, "The Harder They Come," and "Many Rivers to Cross".

The original soundtrack featured featured five songs by Jimmy Cliff from the film in which he played the lead role along with other songs by Toots & the Maytals, Desmond Dekker, the Melodians, and Scotty with songs like "Pressure Drop," "007 (Shanty Town)," "Rivers of Babylon," and "Draw Your Breaks". The soundtrack showed reggae at its finest from 1967-1972.

The deluxe edition offers plenty of bonus material from many of the same artists on the original soundtrack and other artists as well, such as Eric Donaldson, Johnny Nash, Dave & Ansel Collins, and the Ethiopians. "The Harder They Come" set the stage for reggae in America, so if you want to find out where it all began, purchase the deluxe edition of "The Harder They Come," a crucial addition to any reggae collection.

Carrying on the legacy of Robert Nesta.......2006-04-13

I am not going to say this album is as good as Bob, but it is powerfully good none the less. Closest thing I have heard to capturing that Wailer sound. I strongly recommend it for anyone interested in listening to classic reggae and wants to to stay away from the dance hall stuff.

Back To The Roots.......2004-02-14

Culture's lead singer, Joseph Hill is an unassuming, humble and friendly man, who is small in stature. Those who meet him are often unprepared for his tranformation onstage, when he sings with Culture. Somehow, Hill is tranformed into a towering giant, a lion, and avenger for the power of Rastafari when he picks up the microphone to sing. This kind of charisma that of a man who has rasta in his heart. To his credit, Joseph Hill has maintained a steady course, and both his Rastafarian philosophy and the music of Culture has remained with the roots of reggae music, despite over thirty years of strange mutations in Jamaican reggae music. "Harder Than the Rest" is exactly what the title purports it to be.... the hardest and most straight ahead collection of roots reggae when conscious music ruled, and Rastafari was the source of all reggae. Perhaps roots consciousness has fallen from fashion, but jah people will never forget how important Culture was and still is. I love Culture's "Two Sevens Clash" and "Baldhead Bridge" but this CD is truly harder than the rest and proves that reggae music neither began or ended with Bob Marley.

I don't own this album (yet), but whenever I hear it it makes me want to rush out and buy it, only I can't find it anywhere. It's so beautiful all the way through, but "play skillfully" almost brings a tear to my eye. It's lyrical content, melody and harmonies are out-of-this-world. Buy this now.

solid.......2000-12-23

I like this record. Positive vibes, never that cheesy sound. Good, smooth, slightly wah wah rhythms, with 3 part harmonies that remind me a little of the Abyssinians. This album is full of slow, catchy hooks. Listen to the samples - nuff said.

The plane manages to stay in the air.......2003-09-11

Well, I'm a die hard fan of the Die Hard siries, ( Ha ha ha.... ) and also of their music. Kamen has quite a gift for music in that genre. Even though it's quality composing, it soon gets boring. It shouldn't be the only CD you have on a long trip or otherwise your head will explode. There is also some music in the movie that's not on it, which dissapointed me a bit. For example, the music that you hear as John McClane fights the leader terrorist on the wing of the plane. Still, this heart-pounding soundtrack will satisfy fans, even though it should be twice as long.

Solid action score.......2003-02-16

Michael Kamen unleashes a powerful action score to the sequel to the hit film, Die Hard. As performed by The Los Angeles Motion Picture All Stars Orchestra, Kamen revisits some of the music from the first Die Hard score and adds new and exciting material as well. The Die Hard theme is present in only a few places in this score, instead leaving the music to fall on the action side. "Colonel Stuart" opens with ominous and suspenseful sounds with snare drum accompaniment. "The Annexe Skywalk" turns into a great action cue with lots of pulsating brasses and marching snare drums. The tracks in the middle contain mainly suspense filled music. "Icicle" is a breathtaking action cue with pulsating horns taken from the first score, "Snowmobiles" contains chasing string passages, and "The Terminal" finishes off the score on a high note with exciting action material. The first Die Hard film used classical music with Beethoven's 9th Symphony. Likewise, classical music is used once again with J. Sibelius' "Finlandia", which although a good piece, doesn't quite fit in with the rest of the music as Beethoven's 9th did. Still, a great action score that is hard to find, but I recommend checking it out if you can find it.

Pathetic Score CD, a total frisbee.......2001-10-28

And totally (almost deliberately)lacking all of the exciting cues that are heard in the movie. The only track that aroused excitement in me was 7. I cannot possibly think who would enjoy this frisbee. Michael Kamen is a great composer and he made up some great music for this film. But you can only hear from the actual movie. Even the main Die Hard Theme is absent from this CD but present in the movie. Why Varese Sarabande left all the cool music is beyond me. Don't buy this CD, I made that mistake and I regretted it. A waste of money.

Great Soundtrack!.......2000-06-06

If you liked the movie, you will love this. This has a few songs that are not great, and several that are. I would recommend this cd for all who liked the movie and even those who did not see it.

This is a very good score from the genius called Michael Kamen. If you're a die hard and film music fan,this is for you!

Louie Devit-No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2005-08-10

Here we go again..........Good songs gone cheese.......I cried when he compiled Tiesto, I cried.I did....and now Murk, noooooooooooo Not Murk and Tremendo's Bang?.......I mean Dirty Filthy two years later is Ok....Louie Devito is a mixologist not a producer......Buy CD's direct from the artist who actually put the sweat, heart and soul into a song.......What Superstar Dj do you know will compile a Deep House Cd and then come out with a Trance Session? Good music gone commercial Cheese.Louie should be ashamed of himself.

No respect in the music Industry but I guess thats Jersey and

KTU for ya.......
