Customer Reviews:

DAME SHIRLEY DOES IT AGAIN!!.......2007-07-11

The CD is out at long last...the party has started! Dame Shirley Bassey shines as always! She is a world treasure! A MUST buy CD.

SO MUCH FUN!!!.......2007-07-09

This is a fun one...lots of great remixes, stunning new vocals from a lady who show no signs of slowing down. "Living Tree" is powerful, "Party" is great fun. Nobody does it like the Dame!

Majestic!!.......2007-07-09

Welsh/Nigerian songstress, Dame Shirley Bassey, returns with an album of classics with a contemporary twist. Produced by a slew of cutting edge producers and remixers like Bugz in the attic, and North by northwest, the project was driven by the Dame herself.

Best known by some for the Bond theme songs she sang; "Diamonds are forever", "Goldfinger". And "Moonraker", the 13 songs on this collection are heavily influenced by that. The album has already given Dame Shirley Bassey her first UK top 10 album in some decades and deservedly so.

"The living tree" is arguably the best Bond record that never was, with it's Trip Hop feel; a brooding sound, sweeping dramatic strings and explosive vocal delivery (her voice is as booming as ever - she doesn't do things by halves) from the seventy year old Dame. Similar is the self assertive "This is my life".

Lionel Richie's "Hello" is given a haunting, atmospheric treatment. Nicole's dad would be proud of the result. The lightly horn sprinkled "Can I touch you there" (the Michael Bolton song) is similarly transformed (lovely percussion and nice male harmonies).

"I who have nothing" is given a slight dub feel, while "I will survive" is transformed by epic sounding strings and skittery percussion. "What now my love" has a slight salsa feel. "You only live twice" (originally done by Nancy Sinatra) is covered superbly here, downplaying the Bond feel, and giving it a light Cuban feel.

"Where is the love" is given the disco treatment (superb sax outro, by the way), similar to her "Moonraker" hit, and her old hit "Big spender" starts off startingly like Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus" in its new incarnation.

The title track is a rousing reworking of Pink's "Get the party started" with dramatic strings, and crisp enunciation from the Dame.

It is amazing to see a veteran like Dame Shirley Bassey still sounding cutting edge and not resting on her laurels. If you like your music bland and safe, this might not be for you.

Her other album of remixes, "Diamonds are forever: the remix album" is also worth checking out. "Get the party started" is a wonderful aural experience!!

A Triumph!! BRAVO BASSEY!!.......2007-07-09

Finally got this long awaited CD, and it doesn't dissapoint. Great from beginning to end. Dame Shirley shows the world what real singing is all about. Althougth some of the songs have been re-recorded, they are fresh and exciting. I really love Big Spender , Kiss me Hone, Honey, and what else can you say about This Is My Life?

The tile track is sublime, and so is Where is the Love. A must have for all music lovers. You would never know this woman is 70years old listening to her voice!!!

this a real good 80's album from sammy and crew not as strong as standing hampton! but a must for hagar fans

Break the locks and unleash this rock masterpiece!.......2005-05-26

Three lock box is vintage hagar, I love this album! The release of this 1983 was just a glimpse of things to come from Sammy Hagar for the NEXT 25 YEARS: Great vocals, superb songwriting, melodic & anthemic rock that filled a niche, then overflowed and overpowered most around it!

Three Lock Box is a rocker
Remote Love is a sweet poppy tune
Remember the heroes is a DEEP heart felt rock tune dedicated to all of our veterans!
Your love is driving me crazy - Great pop tune with excellent melody, great riffs on the guitar as well!
In the Room - Dark, spooky tune, quite a trip! Reminds me of some prog rock space tune or something of a meidevil background.
Rise of the Animal - The Room song jumps into this hard driving rock tune.

The rest of the tunes are fun and rockin' as well. If you have not heard sammy hagar, or liked some of his work with Van Halen, you should start with this album. I personally feel his best solo works are this, VOA, and Standing Hampton. All are gems, and all are multi-platinum recordings.

One Of Sammy Hagar's Best.......2002-09-20

THREE LOCK BOX is good-time rock album that has some serious lyrics- "Remember The Heroes" is about Vietnam, and "I Wouldn't Change A Thing", describes life's experiences. The blend of Bob Seger/Ted Nugent Detroit rock, Skynyrd/Outlaws Southern rock, and Humble Pie/Foghat/Montrose heavy metal that was present on STANDING HAMPTON remains, but a bit of Journey-esque pop-rock creeps in on the hit single "Your Love Is Driving me Crazy." This and its predecessor, along with MARCHING TO MARS, RED VOODOO, TEN 13, and NOT 4 SALE, are Sammy Hagar's finest solo albums. The fact that Hagar currently advocates sanctions against Indonesia in retaliation for that country's recent trumped-up drug-smuggling conviction of a young Australian tourist, as well as more funding for law enforcement, makes this CD an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience.

The best all-around Hagar album.......2002-08-08

There aren't as many hits here as on Sammy's predecessor "Standing Hampton" or the follow-up "VOA." Both of those come pretty close, but just because there's very little filler here, this marginally wins.

"Your Love Is Driving Me Crazy" is Sam's biggest hit and my favorite song of his. It's almost never played on the radio anymore, though. It's a typical '80s Hard Rocker, but slightly more pop, due to keyboard use. Many other songs here use them too. "Remote Love" and "Never Give Up" are carbon copies and excellent album tracks. The other hits were the title track and "I Don't Need Love." These are more like his standard fare. The latter is also one of his best, fast-paced, sex and party, but 'safe' song.

"I Wouldn't Change A Thing" was, I believe, a minor hit that should've been bigger. One thing about this album that were LESS present in others was the slightly serious thoughts on top of the usual party rock. The part ballad "Remember the Hereoes" (about soldiers) was the only completely dramatic song, but it fits in well and is a nice addition. "Growing Up" was a self-explanatory look at just that. (One thing I like about Rock stars is they don't have an age limit for subjects. Sammy was in his late 30s when this came out, but he can talk about coming of age and make it sound totally natural). "In the Room" was another change. The only song I can't get into. A little darker, it talks about dreamland vs reality. "Rise of the Animal" is similar to this, but somewhat more musically engaging.

3 Lock Box is more or less forgotten probably since it's sandwitched between albums which have the near Metal of "One Way to Rock" and "Heavy Metal" as well as the classic road song "Can't Drive 55." By the time I discovered this, I was a die-hard fan of those too, so take my word, don't pass it up.

Writer-director Guy Ritchie's street-tough look at London's decrepit underworld and the unsavory dealings of four best friends whose cockiness is undercut by some serious trouble features a soundtrack of quick dialogue sound clips, a smattering of classic rock, pop, and reggae, and a few current submissions as well. Junior Murvin's "Police and Thieves," known most to rock audiences by the Clash cover, is a great piece of political resistance and laidback dub groove. James Brown's "The Payback" and "The Boss" and Iggy and the Stooges' "I Wanna Be Your Dog" stake out the sharp end, while the late Dusty Springfield paints the softer corner with "Spooky." Ocean Colour Scene delivers the backwards guitar driven "100 Mile High City," and Stretch's "Why Did You Do It?" is a great recreation of early '70s soul. --Rob O'Connor

Awesome soundtrack to an awesome movie.

Normally soundtracks don't find their way into my changer very often. I'll usually just put one or two tracks on a compilation disc. But this bad boy is a compilation disc already made with every song being top choice. The tracks on this CD were chosen be someone with taste as opposed to the usual bunch of Muppets. Enjoy!

Lots of comedians like to think of themselves as rock stars, but Leary makes good on that threat with Lock 'n Load. Leary's frantic concert ranting is intercut MTV-style with comic song parodies (including a gothic mocking of the Love Boat theme), idle chatter, noise bursts, sound collages, and guest spots from the likes of Janeane Garofalo (slamming Fiona Apple) and musicians Adam Roth and Greg Dulli. Leary takes no prisoners as he goes after Michael Flatley, Marv Albert, Hanson, the Kennedy clan, the pope, ecology activists, 7-Eleven counter help, fat Vegas gamblers, and even his own kids. He's at his angry, acid best when he takes on the annoying '90s trends of multiple body piercings, microbrews, and flavored coffee. --Michael Ruby

Customer Reviews:

Whinig f-ing maggots.......2006-08-03

Leary is a darn funny guy. I do not care if he stole each and every joke from some other guy. He is a riot - and he put it out there. I am sick of reading all these little crybaby comments about how he has ripped off Hicks and blah, blah, blah. Go cry about it on some Hicks website, forum, message board, or whatever. Nobody cares about Hicks when trying to read a review of a DENIS LEARY CD. I do not know who this Hicks guy is, and I never want to know who he is, because of all the whining and crying going on here. Hicks apologists shut your cake-holes.

This was the breakthrough, not "No Cure for Cancer".......2006-01-08

"No Cure for Cancer" is the top selling album that catapulted Leary to success, but here he develops into more of a unique individual. People always bug him about ripping off Bill Hicks: On No Cure for Cancer, he may have crossed the line a few times. But by this point he had headed in a different direction; rather than becoming a spiritualist and misanthrope like the late Hicks, Leary got married, had kids, and became the "crazy guy trying to adjust to mundane, family life and never quite fitting in". A bit commercial? Maybe. But Leary's always been a talented, aggressive performer, and here he's working with a fresh perspective as well.

Some of the greatest rants ever.......2005-09-06

The "Coffee" rant is one of the best I've ever heard. The fat f-cks routine was great and his jokes about his kids was excellent. My only complaint was that there some short songs that were lame. Still, there were so many great takes this album is well worth buying.

Not worth the money.......2005-01-14

I thoroughly enjoy listening to Dennis Leary rant and rave about life. But, this was a dissapointment. Too many skits (not even funny), this was more of a let down than I had hoped. There are moments where it is funny, but I do not recommend purchasing this

Exact Bits Leary Stole from Hicks.......2005-01-07

Leary is a hack. He wasn't "influenced" by Bill Hicks, he STOLE material. That makes him a hack. How can you Leary fans argue with the definition of the word hack? Take it up with Webster's Dictionary.

The exact bits Leary stole are described in the book AMERICAN SCREAM on pages 201-202. Bill Hicks was incensed when he heard Leary's tape.

On behalf of Bill's memory, give credit to the original.

Sure, they may have been the kings of heavy metal Cheez Whiz, but unlike many image-conscious '80s rockers, Dokken wrote genuinely appealing songs. Frontman Don Dokken's voice carried better than most belters, and George Lynch was a ferociously gifted guitarist who could tug at the heartstrings as easily as he could burn down the bedroom. Under Lock and Key, which wasn't as combustive as Dokken's first two albums Breaking the Chains and Tooth and Nail, seemed like an effort by the band to attract a larger following. It worked. Candy metal softballs like "It's Not Love," "Unchain the Night," and "In My Dreams" were heavy enough to keep the guys rockin', but sensitive enough to attract the chicks. And isn't that what '80s metal was all about? --Jon Wiederhorn

Customer Reviews:

One of Dokken's best.......2006-11-11

This one is up there with Under Tooth and Nail and Back for the Attack. If you like those two then you'll like this one.

A classic.......2006-03-02

This isn't as heavy as there album Tooth And Nail but it's almost as good and just as popular. The heavier Lightning Strikes, Til the Livin End, It's Not Love and Unchain the Night are and the more melodic In My Dreans, Will The Sun Rise and The Hunter are excellent too. The 2 ballads Jaded Heart and Slipping Away are excellent power ballads too. The whole band here performs just as well as they did on Tooth And Nail. If you like melodic rock, hair metal, classic rock, metal or good music in general than get this.

Rokken w/ Dokken.......2006-02-25

Excellent example of 80's metal. Don Dokken's vocals shine on this cd and George Lynch's guitar work is by far some of his best. This whole cd rocks. I love all of the tracks, but a few that really stick out are: The Hunter, In My Dreams, Lightnin' Strikes Again, & It's Not Love. A must have for any 80's metal fan. You won't be let down by purchasing this one!!

EXCELLENT pop-metal offering.......2006-02-24

This release was more commercial friendly then their magnificent TOOTH AND NAIL, but it is still just as enjoyable - just different. Lyrically speaking, there are at 4-5 songs on here that explore the "having been wronged by the femme-fatale" theme that appears often enough on Dokken releases so as to almost make those lyrics a Dokken trademark.

Anyone who has ever been disappointed in love should be able to relate to Dokken's thorough covering of the subject, whether it be "searching for love on the lonely streets again" (The Hunter), betrayal of confidence (Don't Lie To Me), yearning for a love that still flourishes although it is history (In My Dreams), or the helplessness one feels when a loved one exits one's life (Slippin' Away). I think that has been a big reason Dokken has had such a lasting appeal to their fans because this is a subject so many of them can relate to.

I love Don Dokken's voice. He doesn't exhibit the same range as someone like Rob Halford (then again, who does?), but his voice can suit perfectly for all-out rockers like "Lightnin' Strikes" or ballads like "Slippin' Away" with equal justification. Can you imagine Rob Halford or Ronnie James Dio singing ballads? To me, it just doesn't work as well as Don Dokken's would on Dokken's ballads. Don's voice and style works out great in either capacity.

The first three songs, plus "Don't Lie To Me", are what I would classify as "melodic metal" - musically speaking, similar in style to the Scorpions. A theme and beat is recorded and diversified with George Lynch's intricate guitar work so as to maintain listener interest through the songs.

"Unchain the Night" is a great opener to the release - a mid-tempo track with a thumping bass hook and Don Dokken's soaring vocals. Dokken had opened shows with this number on tour before.

"The Hunter" is a another mid-tempo track, similar to the previous one. Lyrically it's about a broken-hearted guy "searching for love on the lonely streets again" that he himself acknowledges may be in vain.

"In My Dreams" - remember the video to this? George Lynch's fancy fingerwork in this guitar solo is AMAZING. (Incidentally, some techno-dance musicians call THE PARTY redid this in 1991 that promises an intersting comparison.) "Don't Lie To Me" on the same CD is similar to this song.

"Slippin' Away" is a power-ballad similar to "Alone Again" Dokken had released a year earlier. "Jaded Heart" is the other slow song on the CD.

"Lightnin' Strikes" and "Til The Livin' End" are the all out, rapid fire tempo songs on here with the thunderous drums and Lynch's lightning fast fretwork. That is stuff to crash your car to.

"It's Not Love" got a fair amount or radio and MTV airplay It does not happen to be one of my preferred Dokken recording, but it is a fan favorite, so let the other reviews tell you more about that track.

"Will The Sun Rise" sounds like a song that could have appreared on Def Leppard's HYSTERIA. It is a political statement against war. Listen to the song "Give It Up" from Don Dokken's solo CD UP FROM THE ASHES. They are lyrically similar.

Give this Dokken offering a serious listen - it ranks up there with "Tooth And Nail" as their best release.

Another gem from Dokken.......2005-11-09

Dokken prove there one of the best metal bands to come out of the 80's with another great album. Dokken's music was a lot more serious than a lot of the hair bands as Dokken had maybe the best musicians out of them. Anyway here's my review...

1.Unchain the Night- 10/10 A great soft intro that leads into an awesome heavy rocker. This song has a heavy riff and great vocals. The bridge is great as Don's scream leads right into George's awesome solo where he shreds his ass off. George's second solo is better than the first as he plays with a ton of feeling.

2.The Hunter- 10/10 A great Van Halen type song with some great vocals. This song has an awesome riff and chorus. George's solo is excellent as he shreds a little but plays with a lot of feeling and makes every note count. This classic ends with a great note hold from Don Dokken. Great pop metal song.

3.In My Dreams- 10/10 This great melodic song starts with some good harmony vocals. George's riff is excellent. And Don's vocals are great and they sound a little like Joe Lynn Turner. The chorus is great as the harmony vocals work perfect for this song. George's solo is incredible again as he shreds away and shows off his great vibrato. One of my favorites and this song is a little similar to the Yngwie song "Heaven Tonight" One of Dokken's biggest hits and a great pop metal song.

4.Slippin' Away- 10/10 A great ballad with an excellent vocal performance by Don Dokken and an amazing solo by George Lynch who plays with so much emotion.

5.Lightnin' Strikes Again- 10/10 One of Dokken's best songs ever. George's riff is great and Don's vocals are great. An awesome fast paced song. George's solo is great as he shreds away and overdubs some harmony. Don's vocal performance is brilliant as he belts out a lot very high notes towards the end of the song.

6.It's Not Love- 10/10 A few great riffs from George Lynch. Very unique riffs. A great chorus and good vocals during the whole song. George's solo is excellent once again. George's second solo is as good as the first too!

7.Jaded Heart- 10/10 An excellent Alone Again style ballad with an excellent chorus and riff. Don's vocals are very powerful and are filled with emotion. George Lynch's solo is awesome too.

8.Don't Lie to Me- 10/10 A great melodic song that sounds a little like Breaking The Chains. George's solo is excellent as he throws in some tap, some great bends and excellent shredding lines. The guitar tone is excellent as it sounds like the Scorpions guitar tone. This should have been a big hit. The riff is great too. Another one of my favorites.

9.Will the Sun Rise?- 10/10 A great melodic song. The vocals and riff are excellent. The chorus is one of the best on the album. George throws in another great fast melodic solo. This is one of my favorite Dokken songs and George plays with a lot of feel. Maybe my favorite song on the album. A masterpeice!

10.Till the Livin' End- 10/10 An excellent melodic, agressive, fast paced song with another great chorus. A classic George Lynch riff and excellent vocals from Don Dokken. George's solo is probably the best on this album as it has some of his fastest player ever and the high note Don hit's after the solo is excellent. Don's ending note hold and the ending drums and guitar are excellent too. A real classic track.

This is another brilliant album from Dokken. You can't go wrong with there 80's albums but this is very high on my list as Don's vocals and George's guitar work has never been better. Every song is a classic. This album is also more of a pop metal album than Tooth And Nail however it is very diverese and has 4 pop metal songs, 4 straight forward metal songs and 2 power ballads. The glossier production of this album sounds good too. The band is

Don Dokken- Vocals
George Lynch- Guitar
Mick Brown- Drums, Vocals
Jeff Pilson- Bass, Vocals, Keyboards

A step down, but still not bad.......2007-05-24

In 1990 Ronnie James Dio released the fifth Dio album, Lock Up the Wolves. It was the first Dio album in three years and featured a whole new band. The results were very mixed, ranging from excellent to mediocre.

Like every other group Ronnie James Dio has ever been associated with, the musicmanship here is first-rate.The new band features drummer Simon Wright of AC/DC fame, and he fills Vinnie Appice's shoes very well. Bassist Teddy Cook is actually an improvement over Jimmy Bain; his lines are no less solid but much more interesting to listen to. Keyboardist Jens Johansson, formerly of Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force, is not featured very heavily on this album but does a great job of adding texture. The new guitar player is an eighteen year old kid named Rowan Robertson, and he's actually very impressive, displaying a tasteful combination of chops and melody and coming up with some killer riffs. As for the vocals... well, it's Ronnie James Dio. He's at his absolute best here; this may well be his finest recorded vocal performance. This album is superbly recorded as well.

The songwriting is unfortunately where this album falls a little flat. Certainly there's great material here, but it's surrounded by an awful lot of filler. Interestingly enough the fast rockers, which are usually high points on a Dio record, are amongst the weakest tracks on the album with "Wild One", "Night Music", and "Walk On Water" coming across sounding generic and tired. One notable exception is the wonderfully paranoid "Why Are They Watching Me", which rocks. The songs which stand out on the album are slow yet heavy in a way that reminds me of Black Sabbath. Such songs include "Born On the Sun" which is the best track on the album, "Between Two Hearts" featuring some killer riffs, and the epic "Lock Up The Wolves". There are also a couple of interesting departures from the norm on this album, such as the blues-meets-metal "Evil On Queen Street" and the world-weary ballad "My Eyes".

Overall there's more good than bad here, but after four classic albums in a row (not to mention the classics he'd previously recorded with Rainbow and Black Sabbath) we'd all come to expect a lot more from Ronnie James Dio. This is worth picking up, but I'd at least get Dream Evil, Holy Diver, and Master Of The Moon first.

Dio's Most Underated Album.......2007-01-14

"Lock Up the Wolves" is probably my second favorite Dio album. It did not sell that well, got little or no radio airplay, but is his strongest work since leaving Black Sabbath in my opinion. The original Dio band is long gone by this point with only Ronnie himself remaining. Dio brings in a young 18 year old guitarist named Rowan Robertson to fill the guitar duties and he does so admirably. Former AC/DC skinsman Simon Wright is on drums, and Swedish prog keyboard maestro Jens Johansson (Stradivarius, Mastermind) is also on hand along with bassist Teddy Cook. This is the first Dio album to feature a truly great keyboard player and for me at least, the difference is humungous. The keys are still mostly in the background, but what Johansson does would be missed if it was not there. Much of this album is slow and brooding which makes it in my opinion the most Sabbath like of any of Dio's solo discs. Pretty much every song on the album is good and many of them are great. One of my favorite all time Dio songs closes out the album. "My Eyes" is a reflection on his career up to that point as he references Rainbow and Sabbath in a weary look back in time. The single and opening track "Wild One" is a rocker that ranks up with the hardest and fastest music Dio has done. "Born On The Sun", "Night Music" , "Between Two Hearts", "Lock Up The Wolves", "Evil On Queen Street", "Walk On Water", man they are all great tunes. Dio's vocals are in top form throughout and even most of his lyrics are well thought out and meaningful. I actually rank this album better than all of his 80's output. Many Dio fans won't agree with that assessment, but I think this is by far his most underrated album.

Four and A Half Stars-DO NOT Write This One Off!!!.......2006-12-27

The ONLY issue I have with LUTW is the length: clocking in at just over 60 minutes, the overall mid to slow tempo of the album DOES make it drag a bit. So within that context, some criticism is justified. Other than that, Dio managed to release a fifth album that just barely misses the "classic/essential" category of the band's first four albums. The classic line-up is no longer present; the band Ronnie James assembled here is quite a motley crue: Drummer Simon Wright (AC/DC) fits in well, keyboardist Jens Johannssen (Yngwie, etc.) I would have expected more from, bassist Teddy Cook I know nothing about. Finally, we have the star of the album: teenage axe prodigy Rowan Robertson, who is quite worthy of the priviledge of working with RJD. It's a shame he hasn't become more well known since this album; he is an EXCEPTIONAL player. The sound on LUTW is much darker and bluesier than any other Dio album. And Slower. But again, don't let that scare you off! MOST of the songs are well written, produced and performed. For newcomers, I recommend Holy Diver and/or Last in Line. For established fans...shame on you for not owning or appreciating this fine effort!!!!

Pulse-Pounding!.......2006-07-24

Lock Up the Woves is an incredible metal album!
Powerful, powerful, powerful...
This is a classic album that no true Dio fan, or any fan of hard rock and heavy metal for that matter, should be without.
Every song had electrifying guitar riffs that absolutely blow the listener away.
Although slightly below "Holy Diver," this album is absolutely breathtaking!

An underrated classic........2006-03-02

This album is as good as Holy Diver, Last In Line, Dream Evil and Sacred Heart. The slow songs are great and the faster power metal songs are great too. Ronnie's voice has never been better and Rowan Robertson is as good if not better than any other Dio guitarist. Robertson was only 16 but his riffs and solos are amazing. The best songs are Born On The Sun, Lock Up The Wolves, Walk On water, Why Are They Watching Me and My Eyes. Every song on this album is worth listening too. If you like Dio's other albums or good metal music in general than buy this album.

Rounder has released some prime examples of contemporary zydeco, as this release from Beau Jocque and the Zydeco Hi-Rollers makes evident. Beau Jocque and company pound out some high-energy music here. This is not meant for relaxed listening; this is party music. Good-time classic "Keep a Knockin'" is given the full treatment, including a killer Hammond B3 solo. "Slide and Dip It" comes in two mixes: one zydeco and one "party dip." Both are guaranteed to get your house rocking. "Going Down to the Country," on the other hand, is a raw swamp blues while "She Wants to Sell My Monkey" is all but indescribable. Top these off with an outrageous cover of funk standard "Tighten Up" and you have a nonstop winner. These guys put the "Z" in zydeco! --Lars Gandil

Customer Reviews:

Great Modern Zydeco.......2007-03-09

Jocque and the boys (the Hi-Rollers) really give it up on this album. Lots of foot stomping hi-numbers as well as a few slower tempo songs. Tequila is a great cover done in Zydeco style as well as many great originals. Also check out Keith Frank (On a Mission) for another example of great modern Zydeco. Buy it album and be prepared to dance. Enjoy.

The Gret Late Beau Lays It All Down Here.......2000-10-27

This is a great recording- the accordian stopping and starting, wheezing and jumping, Beau growling it out while "skeeta" pays him constant homage in the reply. Get up and dance.

Downright Stanky.......2000-10-23

This recording just gives it up- heaping portions of steaming funk; look up the word "syncopation" in the dictionary and there is a tiny picture of this band. Do NOT come anywhere near this recording if you are not willing to stop your sorry cell-phone life and DANCE.

Jocque Rhymes With "Rock".......2000-07-03

You don't have to like Zydeco to like this CD. Beau's deep, gritty voice, a pounding bass, infectious enthusiasm, and good material combine to produce a winner. Check out the bluesy "What You Gonna Do" and "Going to the Country," a smooth remake of Archie Bell's "Tighten Up," and the up-tempo "Why You Wanna Make Me Crazy?" This band has fun making music; you'll have fun listening to it.

Jacque is sort of a "Ray Charles" of swampy Zydeco........1999-05-18

I love this big guy's renderings of day-to-day themes. Not a Pavarotti, but an honest practioner of 'lusianne' folk music. He is easy to enjoy and can be appreciated for the energy he invests in all of his cuts. He really enjoys what he does. And so do I.

Man why did te US get shafted. I bought the US version first, and wondered where a lot of the songs I herd on the movie were. When I found out the UK version had more, boy I was pissed. Anyway, if you're a fan of this movie, or soundtracks of films like Pulp Fiction, or any other Tarantino film, you should definintly pick this up.

peace

GREAT SOUNDTRACK!!! UK version.......2002-07-10

I nearly bought the US version until I stumbled upon this one, compared and realised that so much was left off the US one. If you like this one, you will like the Snatch Soundtrack. I did get the US one on that. But the only difference are the dialouge tracks, which I was able to live without, considering I own Snatch VHS and have it memorized. in fact i have L S & 2S B memorized too, but it is ten times funnier.

'nuff said.......2002-06-13

If you're checking out this soundtrack, chances are you've either seen Lock Stock or Snatch and know about what great soundtracks they have. So do yourself a favor and buy this now!

TWO versions of the soundtrack, read below:.......2001-12-15

Guy Ritchie is not only an amazing director, but he's attached the most unusual and awesome mix of music to this classic-to-be movie. This CD is for anyone who enjoys something away from the normal. BE WARNED!! There are two versions! I myself accidentally bought the American version, HUGE MISTAKE!!!! It lacked many delicious songs that were vital for maximum enjoyment. Please do NOT make the same mistake I did, buy the Imported version, do your research, you'll see. ENJOY!!

Rock and roll roller coaster soundtrack.......1999-05-07

First, go see the movie. Then by magnetic force you will be compelled to buy the CD in order to once again experience the rock and roll rollercoaster ride of the movie. An ecletic mix of rock, James Brown blues, and brit pop - along with a nice dose of classic soundbite snipits from the movie (a la Pulp Fiction). When I first got this soundtrack I was reading the playlist and thought "who are all these artists?" Now I will go out of my way to find their albums. The whole CD is great driving music - don't skip any songs!

The mid ninities revival of hip-hop party music spawned by artists such as DJ Kool is truly in evidence on the CD. Released by the same independent record label that dropped "Let Me Clear My Throat", "Lockdown" flaunts all the off-cuff stage drama that makes live hip-hop powerful.
