1 out of 5 stars Poor quality.......2007-01-08

The songs sound like poor quality live recordings. I am very disappointed.

3 out of 5 stars Warning! Duplicate song!.......2005-04-30

I think Belafonte's music is great, really great. And this compilation is fine, but I wanted to warn to anyone considering buying this disc that -in a way I can only describe as absurd and unbelievable- it has the same song TWICE on this very album/CD. As you will note if you read the list of songs, number 2 is "Banana Boat Song", and number 11 is "Day O"; so we have his biggest hit duplicate (and it's the very same version, the original). That added to the fact that it has only 14 (well, 13) songs with a lot of space that could be filled, make me not recommend it even for beginners. Try another compilation to begin with, like All Time Greatest Hits, Vol. 1, or the 3CD box set Banana Boat Song. And it is essential The Concert at Carnegie Hall (the first one) but, again, NOT the american version but the import edition in a double disc set (which is complete and totally worthy).

4 out of 5 stars In My Quiet Room - Belafonte.......2004-09-29

Someone please put "In My Quit Room" by Belafonte on CD.

5 out of 5 stars Great.......2004-06-04

I have been looking for some of these songs forever. However one of my all time favorite Belefonte records is "Love Is a Gentle Thing" please, please please put this out in CD.
Scarlet Ribbons and Turn Around are just a taste of what is on that wonderful record.

5 out of 5 stars THIS IS GREAT - BUT WE AGREE WITH OTHER REVIEWER.......2001-01-04

My husband and I also have been trying to find what we think are among the 2 best Belafonte lps we have - "Love is a Gentle Thing" and "In My Quiet Room". There are so many albums of his with duplicate songs - we just wish his promoters would let us buy these special two. We still have 15+ of his lps with non-dupe pieces we would love to find in collections without getting ones with 95% songs we already have on them.

When a Rastafarian MC stole the show on Gang Starr's posse cut "I'm the Man" (from their Daily Operation LP), rap fans took notice. And they were not disappointed by Jeru the Damaja's aptly titled debut, The Sun Rises in the East. His ability to drop rhymes filled with Biblical references and simultaneously speak out against the C.R.E.A.M credo that permeates hip-hop is unparalleled. The Brooklyn mic fiend's vast vocabulary and clear delivery are on display on "Mental Stamina," where he gloats that he's a "Phoenician with more stamina than a Christian," as he introduces the world to rhyme partner Afu Ra. And the street anthem "Come Clean" features DJ Premier--arguably hip-hop's best producer--at his finest (check the drippy faucet sample). This album isn't without controversy, however. On "Da Bichez," Jeru draws a distinction between what he calls "bitches" and "young ladies" over a hot horn loop. But in spite of some inconsistencies in his stance as a prophet, this 40-minute album contains no filler, and remains his best work to date. --Dalton Higgins

5 out of 5 stars Classic.......2007-06-10

Yeah when you want true hip hop it just doesnt get better then this right here man... Jeru the damaja's "the sun rises in the east" is one of those albums that you dont skip any track cause all the songs are straight fire and the lirycs are even more deadly and the beats ? Amazing.Hip hop used to be my insperation back in these day. Go copy if you dont already have it ? U need to get beat down. Every true hip hop head should already own diz album.

5 out of 5 stars Only Biggie and Nas's albums in 94 was better.......2007-05-25

What do get when you put an MC with thought provoking and tight lyrics and a producer with hot beats? One of the best debut albums ever! Jeru and Primo was a nasty combo when they did The Sun Rises In The East. Jeru had the 3rd best album in 1994 behind Biggie and Nas and that was only because they dropped classics albums as well. Jeru had metaphors, punchlines, and phrases for you and Primo gave you some of the best beats ever. The beat for Come Clean is among the greatest beats eva. The best thing about the album is that it had one guest appearance and the worst thing about it was that it really didn't the airplay it deserved and it was greatly slept on by the masses. My favorite tracks are Come Clean, D Original, My Mind Spray, and Ain't The Devil Happy, but check out the entire album cause it's worth it.



5 out of 5 stars When The East Is In The House..........2007-05-24

Wow what else can be said about Jeru and this production by Premo. I honestly think that this production got Premo more buzz than any of the Gang Starr albums. Every cut weighs heavy and has a lot of lyrical content. Jeru started really mastering the on beat off beat rhyme scheme more than any other rapper and made it his signature.This album like Illmatic makes you feel like your in his neighborhood even though you may have never stepped foot in NYC or Brooklyn for that matter. Another gem that every head should own, no filler hear or massive guest appearances here.

5 out of 5 stars Gritty East Coast Hip Hopper.......2007-03-22

Jeru is raw and skillful. The man is a poet and expresses feeling. Great CD! I wish he would cut some more!

5 out of 5 stars The Prophet Drops The Ill Science {5 Stars}.......2007-03-03

Back in '94 a lot of the rap albums that were dropping were pretty much home runs. With that being the standard, a lot of folks were dropping classics just keep pace with their contemporaries. Jeru's debut, The Sun Rises In The East, is on par with pretty much any rap release from '94 (yes, including Illmatic and Ready To Die). Jeru enlists the talents of DJ Premier. Premo is also the producer behind Gangstarr, the classic Return Of The Boom Bap LP by KRS One, and quite a few others -- so you know the man's pedigree is nothing short of top notch. The sound is nothing short of that gritty, NY styled boom bap. If you aren't nodding when you put this on, then you may want to check yourself for a pulse. Jeru's rhymes fit the production to a tee. His rhymes mostly center around enlightening the urban youth and dropping 5% science. I'm always down for a positive message that tries to better whoever may be listening.

As far as flaws go, there were one or two tracks that didn't grab this particular listener. "Brooklyn Took It" and "Statik" may be good tracks, but unless you catch me on a good day, I'll probably skip them. That's just me though -- you may love them (most people do). The rest of the album is on point and provides excellent nod material.

The Sun Rises In The East is classic east coast boom bap styled hip hop. With Premier on the boards you really can't go wrong. Couple that with Jeru's commanding, razor sharo lyrical delivery and you have a chunk of must have hip hop music on your hands. I highly recommend making this one a collection piece.

This Nashville band may have lifted its name from the lyrics of a Led Zeppelin song but listeners expecting nine-minute guitar epics about medieval orgies and fiery demons are bound to be disappointed. Blue Merle favors a lighter touch, as sketched out on the wistful title track of its debut album, Burning In The Sun. The jangly song evokes the Dave Matthews Band with its lilting fiddles and spiraling rhythms, while singer-songwriter Luke Reynolds sounds like a dead ringer for Coldplay's Chris Martin. Having played Bonnaroo, toured with Donovan Frankenreiter and recoded with Matthews producer Stephen Haris, the band seems destined to find a home with the Relix crowd. It would be a shame if it settled there. Rich, emotionally detailed songs like "If I Could" and "Stay" not only transcend genres, they're capable of changing lives. -- Aidin Vaziri

5 out of 5 stars perfect instrumentation and singing.......2007-06-04

two years ago I went to a dave matthews band concert at the nissan pavilion in virginia. I didnt expect to hear such amazing talent before dave even came on.. it was blue merle, they were fantastic! the night I left there I drove to a walmart super center and bought their cd.. Since then I can say out of all my cds I have listened to theirs the most. they are a fantastic band, its a shame they had to break up

5 out of 5 stars Excellent debut (and swan song).......2006-12-30

I was very disappointed to see that Blue Merle broke up as I really enjoy listening to all of the tracks on this most excellent debut. If you like, Cold Play, Keane, Vertical Horizon and the like, you will not be disappointed with Blue Merle.

2 out of 5 stars One or possibly two songs are good.......2006-10-06

Because I like faster music with a beat that makes me tap a foot, I only liked the cut "Lucky To Know You." "Seeing Through You" is all right, too. Perhaps Reynolds will independently release a CD of his own with more songs like "Lucky To Know You."

5 out of 5 stars Great album, so long Blue Merle.......2006-06-30

I saw these guys live twice and they put on a great show. The album is very impressive as well. The bad news is that they are no longer. A message on thier website said they broke up to follow different paths. So this album is a one of kind find, worth the price if you like crossover pop/ bluegrass kind of feel. It makes you want to drive out through open spaces. Good stuff.

4 out of 5 stars Spare me the Coldplay comparisons!.......2006-01-05

I've only one thing to say to all of the squidgedy morons who bemoan that "they ripped off Coldplay". CLEAN THE WAX OUT OF YOUR EARS!

Sure you can compare the sound of Luke's voice to Chris Martin's but, that's where it ends. The vocal style is not the same and the songs are not even close to being similar. Blue Merle has roots in rock, country, and bluegrass. The only bluegrass COLDPLAY ever saw was on a trip to Denmark.

If you folks making the Coldplay comparison knew half as much as you think you do about music you still couldn't fill a thimble.

This is a great CD of songs that I'll be enjoying for sometime.

      3 out of 5 stars A century of British art songs to delight those who love them.......2006-06-26

      These 53 songs have been collected by Naxos from their extensive acquisitions from Collins Classics, and perhaps other British sources now out of business. There's a steady cottage industry, year after year, producing the typical English art song, which is usually based on folk songs, but even in more modern idioms is profuondly conservative and nostaligic. Half these songs, not to mention half the composers, are totally unknown to American audiences, but the familiar names of Vaughan Williams and Britten represent high quality, and the lesser lights, such as Warlock and Quilter, are mainstays in this repertoire.

      I'd challenge all but the most addicted listener to make it through more than ten songs at a sitting, and many of these pieces are tepid, offering comfort rather than inspiration. The singers are among the best, but Graham Johnson and Steuart Beford, who do most of the accompaniments, are lackluster. I know that won't be a popular comment, yet if you compare any of these songs with rendiitons done by Janet Baker, John Shirley-quirk, and most recently Bryn Terfel and Ian Bostridge, you immediately notice how much more intensity and drama is pesent than htis colleciton reveals.

        4 out of 5 stars All About Belafonte.......2005-09-15

        I bought this box set because there were no CDs of my favorite albums, "Belafonte," "Mark Twain," "An Evening with Belafonte" "Calypso" & "Harry Belafonte Sings of the Caribbean." I wasn't disappointed. It contains the gorgeous ballads, fun dittys, moving gospel & "jump up" Calypso I remembered with such fondness. The set also includes songs recorded earlier & later than my favorites, serving as bookends of enjoyment. The book focuses on Belafonte's personal life up to and including the making of "Island in the Sun." The only flaws I could find was that the book contains no lyrics and little about the music itself or the artists that helped Belafonte sound so great. It would be wonderful to know something about the soprano who did the lovely duet with Harry on "Mo Mary" or which guitarist accompanies Harry on "Merci Bon Dieu." That said, this box set comes highly recommended for any Belafonte fan.

          2 out of 5 stars CD not in Stereo.......2006-03-31

          The quality of the music on this CD is not very good because the music is not recorded in stereo. Although the songs on the CD are great I would strongly suggest buying other Harry Belafonte CDs that are recorded in stereo such as "The Very Best of Harry Belafonte".

          5 out of 5 stars Great and ageless party music........1999-10-01

          This is a must own for any serious CD collector. The music is great play while you work, or for background music at a party. It really creates a 'feeling' and atmosphere. The songs are timeless and relevant to anyone who has travelled to the Carribean or longs to go there someday. Harry Belafonte is one of the greatest artists of all times. His music was a driving force that helped transform American culture.
