3 out of 5 stars Aaron Copland.......2007-05-13

It's okay but I dont listen to it much. I have other things I would rather listen to like Chris Isaak Lawrence Welk Bee Gees etc

5 out of 5 stars Best Collection of Aaron Copland.......2005-12-21

Aaron Copland is for me one of three of America's greatest composers of the 20th Century. Bernard Herrmann and Jerome Moross are the other two. Aaron Copland would have been 100 years old on November 14, 2000. In reflection I turn back to my first Copland album, "Copland's Greatest Hits." I was familiar as most people are with "Hoe Down" and that was the springboard for me. What attracted me was that distinctive "American" sound and "American" quality of the piece. This "American" sound is very present in Jerome Moross' score for the epic Western film, "The Big Country." One can also find similar influences in Bernard Herrmann's score for "The Kentuckian" and very much like Copland, Herrmann researched and interpolated regional folk songs and integrated them into his own unique style. Because I always liked film scores and also very much liked Copland's "Hoe Down" I always thought there had to be some connection with the musical approach. When I got this album and listened to "Appalachian Spring" for the first time I knew that I had discovered pure "Americana" and I have found that sound replicated in so many films. If you listen to the scores for "The Natural" or "Field of Dreams" or even recently to "Saving Private Ryan" this sound is present. This is a tribute to Copland and American music. Copland reinvented American music by giving it his unique structure. Copland's music is so simply melodic yet richly textured that it has an inherent sophistication that defines our nation. This is my favorite Copland album. That may be sentimental, but it helped me try to define a sound that I personally found moving and uplifting. I highly recommend this album of collected recordings. The recording of "Appalachian Spring" on this CD performed by the New York Philharmonic and conducted by Leonard Bernstein is my favorite recording of this piece to date.

5 out of 5 stars The finest version of Appalachian Spring -- bar none!.......2001-12-09

I marvel at this CD every time I listen to it. This CD features Aaron Copland conducting the Boston Symphony in a performance of his own Appalachian Spring. There are many poignant hesitations and nuances in this performance. There is good reason why this piece has become synonymous with Americana -- listen to it, close your eyes and just let the images unfold.

This CD also contains Eugene Ormandy conducting the Philadelphia Philharmonic in the Billy the Kid Ballet Suite. It is a spectacular performance as well.

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Collection of Copland Music.......1999-11-09

Every cut on this CD is very good. My personal favorites are "Appalacian Spring", and the "The Tender Land - Finale: The Promise of Living." I would recommend this CD to anyone who is a fan of Classical Music.

5 out of 5 stars Breathtaking, beautiful and aweinspiring!.......1999-07-12

This is no doubt one of the most beautiful classical CD's I have ever listened to. Copland was and is an extremely gifted composer.

5 out of 5 stars Totally Awesome.......2005-10-16

I was waiting sooooo long for this to come out! I have almost every karaoke CD in history. This CD has the most awesome songs. Here's my reviews for the songs:
1.Since you been gone-7/10-A little bit annoying if played too many times,but good.
2.She will be loved-9/10-Almost the best song on the CD.
3.If I ain't got you-6/10-A little slow for me. I was so mad when they played it on the radio because it gets pretty boring after listening to it for the millionth time.
4.Let's get it started-10/10-The ultimate party anthem of this year. Great way to start a party. Get it.
5.Pieces of Me-7/10-I used to like her but when she sang on SNL, I didn't like her that much anymore.
6.Somebody told me-2/10-I hate this song. I loooove their new song Mr.Brighside better.
7.My happy ending-6.5/10-I liked it better when Avril first came out with Complicated. Her new songs are a bit dark or gothy-ish
8.Yeah-8/10-This song is played at almost every party. I was mad when they named this the #1 song of 2004.
9.Heaven-9/10-Not a bad song at all. This song has a good beat and the vocals are excellent.
10.Breakaway-7/10-Gets on my nerves when I've listened to it for a whole bunch of times.
11.Let me love you-8/10-Good song, but a wee bit overplayed.
12.Angels-5/10-My sister likes this song but I don't like it very much. Good vocals though.
13.Drop it like it's hot-10/10-THIS SONG IS THE COOLEST OF ALLLLL TIME.
14.Get right-3.9/10-Painful to listen to. It sounds like she's is bouncing up and down with the mic.
15.Over and Over- -50,000,000/10-Horrible song. More like Overplayed and Overplayed Again.
16.Leave(Get Out)-0.5/10-GRRRRR!!!! This song gets on my nerves.It's painful to even think about it.

3 out of 5 stars party cd.......2007-01-09

This karaoke party CD is good but the last track would not play. Also very mature content . Not intended for children.

4 out of 5 stars It's a good laugh.......2005-01-09

I believe they could have chosen better songs... The instruments seemed a tad off tune, but otherwise my friends and I had a blast making fun of a few of the songs and rocking out to some as well.

3 out of 5 stars Professional renditions?.......2004-06-17

Before I say anything else, I'll have you know that I only bought this CD for one track, Wherever You Will Go. And I was highly disappointed. For one thing, the instrumentals don't sound at all like the original. It even sounds acoustic, for goodness' sakes! And the backup signer was no better. He did not sound one thing like Alex Band, nor did he even sound like he could sing a note. The other tracks were okay renditions, but nothing ever came near the originals.

1 out of 5 stars Fans of them must have TIN ears........2007-07-10

You know the first couple songs around you think that they have some pretty good party tunes, then you realise all of their music sounds EXACTLY the same. These guys have no place amongst other hip-hop legends like Pac, Biggie & Nas. If you heard at least 3 of their songs, then you've heard everything that they've made because their style is not diverse at all. The same speedo tempo, the same topics, seriously these guys have like 200 songs about the same thing. Hate if you want I'm speaking the truth.

5 out of 5 stars I have to agree with the other guy..........2005-10-01

2 Live Crew STARTED Hard-Core RAP period. Before the Ghetto Boys before Eazy-E it was Luke that literally opened the gates for these other guys learning about sampaling songs and trying new music (ie. As Nasty As They Wanna Be) That album was BANNED so they fought for free speech and won that fight. 9 out of 10 good rap artists, I BET, would say that Luke Campbell (SP?) was and is one of the founding fathers of hard core rap!

5 out of 5 stars Three stars??? You have to be kidding!.......2004-02-13

Man, 2 Live Crew is the godfathers of this style! They popularized miami bass and all that. There would be no 'dirty south' hip-hop if it wasn't for them, plus this here got all their hits. Ain't no better buy for your money if you into x-rated, bass-heavy dance/rap music. Well, DJ Boss Pimp is raw too, but really he just ripped the style from 2 Live Crew and mixed it Mix-a-lot. But on the real, Boss Pimp can't hang with 2 Live. But if you want something new that sound like 2 Live Crew/Luke, then check out DJ Boss Pimp.

5 out of 5 stars Greatest Hits.......2001-03-02

The last review gave this disc 3 stars, but, having owned ALL the 2 Live Crew CD's at one point in my life, I have to say that this is actually a 5 star Greatest Hits CD. These songs are actually the best ones the group recorded. If you were going to buy an entire CD, I'd recommend As Nasty As They Wanna Be, or Sports Weekend, maybe even Banned in the USA if you're really a fan. Other than that, I'd just get the greatest hits. It has the cool novelty songs of the first two albums (the albums aren't good enough to buy the whole thing) so go with the G.H. CD and get the handfull of cool song from the first two plus the rest of the classics from their newer CD's.

3 out of 5 stars What did you expect?.......1999-06-25

You know exactly what you are getting when you buy a 2 Live Crew album... This kind of music is why Rockford/Fosgate sold the epicenter. Hilarious (yes, sometimes only if you're a man) lyrics, HUGE amounts of bass, and nothing to think about. Around 1990 or '91, this is the only thing that played over my 4 15's.

5 out of 5 stars Mr. Clarification.......2006-07-18

I'm not sure if Damascus "Damn" was being facetious or dead-serious with regard to his review--and I'm guessing I won't be the only one confused--so hopefully this will clear things up:

the Birthday Party is Nick CAVE's first band, originally called the Boys Next Door. They started up around 1977 and lasted until 1983, when Nick, Mick Harvey and others (including Einsturzende Neubauten's Blixa Bargeld) joined Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

The sound of the Birthday Party is challenging stuff: abrasive, menacing, sleazy post-punk noise, with lyrics full of dark, absurd imagery. Certainly not for everyone, though fans of Pere Ubu, Einsturzende, the Swans, and other "No Wave" acts should definitely check them out.

This compilation offers a pretty comprehensive collection of BP classics, though of course the original albums and EPs are available and highly recommended.

"Hee Haw" gathers everything from their early days as a proto-goth band, their two proper albums "Prayers on Fire" and "Junkyard" find them at the peak of their powers, and their final EPs "the Bad Seed" and Mutiny!" demonstrates their increasing interest in slow murky dirges. If you want to hear the roots of Nick's output with the Bad Seeds, these EPS prove to be quite fascinating blueprints for the early stages of his better known band.

Basically, take Damascus Damn's compliments and apply them to a band that's been gone for almost 20 years; their originality and influence becomes that much greater.

5 out of 5 stars Something for everybody!.......2005-12-15

Hearing that this was Nick Lowe's other band, I knew I was in for a treat! Boy was I ever. Having abandoned the cold suit-and-tie affair for a sound that may appeal to the younger generation a bit more, he takes on a much scarier approach here. The kids that listen to Marilyn Manson...beware! The Antichrist Superstar is like a particle board pedestal compared to the die-cast monolith of this artistic atavistic animal.

Now the songs. Oh my, the songs. I'll talk about my favorite songs, but all of them are good, really.

"The Friend Catcher" begins with a hellmouth puckering up to whistle...a prison of sound, indeed! It's actually guitarist Roland Howard (related to Clint and Ron...what a talented family) doing some cRaZy feedback on his guitar. This song is also an update of Green Jelly's "Three Little Pigs" that must be heard to be believed.

The next song is also a more relevant update of another universal song, the "Happy Birthday" song. Only their version has some obvious references to Quentin Tarantino movies and Cujo, complete with Nick doing his so-so impression of the rabid dog. Trivia: This song and the name of the band are about their publically expressed anger towards the original Happy Birthday song being copyrighted and no longer public domain, so you know these are performers for the people. FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT AND KEEP PLAYING, BOYS!

"Mr. Clarinet" is a Cyrano De Bergerac kind of story where Nick wants to learn the clarinet from a sort-of friend (you get the feeling he's actually mocking him behind his back, just like in Cyrano's story) to help him serenade a girl. Very touching, nonetheless.

The next song is a bit of a sleazy striptease song, obviously meant to get his female fans in the mood, and it's called "Nick the Stripper." It doesn't really do anything for me, but the music is really cool. I don't know, but it sounds like he says "incest" every once in a while. Hello, Dr. Freud? Nick, it's for you!

"Zoo Music Girl" is about a girl that listens to a lot of animal zoo sounds weirdo music that is driving him up the wall, like one of those girls that work at Pier 1 Imports or the Nature Shop in the mall. The only song I know of that's an ode to girlfriends playing music just to drive their boyfriends insane! Finally boys, we have an anthem. Be sure to thank The Birthday Party!

The next song about weird girlfriends is "Release the Bats." You know those girls that think they're vampires and try to sneak in a "love bite" or two and you end up missing a nipple, if you're lucky. We all do. Nick does too, I think.

Later on, following The Birthday Party tradition of updating old things anew yet again, they take on Shakespeare's "Hamlet." HAMLET! And just like Romeo and Juliet got a facelift in the 1996 movie with guns, the story of the Prince of Denmark and betrayal and DEATH DEATH DEATH get a gun facelift, too. Hamlet was a badass mf, kids. Very educational song.

Not to remain all hoighty-toighty and high-falutin with the Shakespeare homages, The Birthday Party throw us all a HUGE (no, not PARTY, lol) curve with "Dead Joe." "Dead Joe" is about the underground Sylvester Stallone movie "Driven" where he plays a washed-up driver named Joe Tanto that meets a tragic end in a race. It's an emotionally devastating movie that unfortunatly isn't carried in a lot of video stores (There's a petition out there to get it released to dvd).

On "Big Jesus Trash Can" Nick Lowe references his "Jesus of Cool" days from way back in the 70's. Except in our post-911 world, Nick's prophetic eye draws down upon a Jesus will not ascend from the heavens as most may expect, but rather barreling down the streets in a big, stinky garbage truck ala GTA San Andreas. SCARY.

Let me just say that bassist Tracy "Pew" can sure lay down the "funk" (get it?)! He adds that much needed spaghetti western flair to "Wildworld," or should I say, "Wildwest"! Clint Eastwood would be proud.

And I could just go on and on, but I will not. LOWLIGHTS: Even though they mess up really bad on what could have been a really good song, "King Ink," and sound like they lost all control of their instruments and stumble around the studio like raving lunatics, Nick's scream of frustration sets everything straight again, eventually. These boys just don't give up. It has considerable edutainment value for the Hamlet song, too, so it's a great studying aid for your homeschooled children!

Buy this cd if you like guns, ninja swords, fast cars, and cowboys.

My vote for album of the year. Thank you.

5 out of 5 stars Blast Off!.......2005-02-23

This compilation distills all the fury, depravity, and fun of The Birthday Party perfectly. If you can only afford one thing by The Birthday Party, make it this record (though after hearing it you'll probably want to buy or steal all their original albums...well, either that or you'll throw the disc out the window and run to the nearest church). The Birthday Party is known now as "Nick Cave's old band" and while it's true that the Birthday Party and The Bad Seeds share similar lyrical themes and influences, not to mention Mr. Cave's utterly unique vocals, the two bands are very different. The organ and piano that typify The Bad Seeds' sound are mostly absent here. Instead, there's dank, dirty, noisy guitars, heavily improvisational and rather brutal drumming, and on a few songs, twisted cabaret-like horns. The younger Cave on display here is also different from his more recent work. Cave is at once more frighteningly intense (that's a gross understatement, by the way) and more tongue-in-cheek. The Birthday Party might sing about lust, death, disfigurement, depression, death, self-loathing, and even more death, but there's always an apparent sense of theatre to it all. That said, "Hits" is not just one noisy rave-up after another. "Happy Birthday" grooves like a gothic Gang Of Four, "Mr. Clarinet" dances along quite beautifully, "King Ink" is a lumbering beast of a song, "She's Hit" and "Wild World" are both slow and undeniably sexy, "Junkyard" builds slowly, and "Deep In The Woods" is practically spoken-word. I could go on, as every song on this compilation is great, but I don't want to ruin all the surprises. Good old fashioned, evil fun all the way.

3 out of 5 stars Cutting.......2003-06-14

I must admit that even though I've known of Nick Cave's music for quite some time through film soundtracks and duets with Shane McGowan and Kylie Minogue, this is actually the first Cave featured album I've managed to acquire. Even though they were from Austraila, the Birthday Party's darkly Gothic music conveys the atmosphere of early 80's London, where I believe they settled for a while. They seemed to have developed feedback as a sonic aid to song construction a couple of years before Mary Chain's 'Psychocandy'. Great post-punk guitar piecies, 'Mr. Clarinet' reminds me of Keith Levine's guitar riff on 'Death Disco'. 'Zoo Music Girl' seems like a parody of early 80's British chart music's fascination with all things jungle-like ('The Lion Sleeps Tonight' anyone?). 'Release The Bats' like Joy Division's 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' could have been a standard for Elvis. In fact Goth music at its best crystallizes the images and themes of the early 19th century literary form from which it gets its name and the hip-swivelling rhythm of 50's rock 'n' roll. Goth is a 50's parent's nightmare taken to its logical extreme. A fact not lost on Marilyn Manson. The clash of eastern style guitar sounds on 'Wildworld', the punk rock vibes of 'Swampland' and the driving bass of 'Mutiny in Heavan' would soon be left behind by Cave. Mary Shelley would have been proud of the poetics to come, in which 'Deep In The Woods' and 'Jennifer's Veil' are classical examples of his future career.

5 out of 5 stars happy birthday........2002-02-10

Hmm, my first and only Birthday Party release so-far. so good also. This album is split into FOUR QUARTERS. these i shall review.
Hee-Haw period: friend-catcher is symphonic, but nicky doesn't have his vocals perfect yet. birthday sounds gang-of-4-ish, but the real gem here is Mr Clarinet.
The next kiddies here are from Prayers on fire, slightly more impressive. Nick the stripper makes me wonder what kind of stripper nick is, paint maybe? zoo music, king ink, bat releaser and Blast Off! hit the spot like some sort of meshed stooges zombie elvis visigoth spectacular.
Ah, but the Junkyard tracks are spectacular, and rightly so.
I don't feel significant enough to talk about them, but you need them in your life, truly.
Mutiny/bad seed tracks are notibly heavier, slower and bluesier.
My favourite are jennifer's veil and swampland, just for the sheer brutality, deep in the woods slowly crawls no-where for three sour minutes before burning itself alive!. All in all, genuinely scary, unlike that misfits/slipknot [stuff].
...
This Album is good, but bu JUNKYARD, PRAYERS ON FIRE AND MUTINY themselves, you get more pure evil. sorry.

    1 out of 5 stars this cd sucks........2003-12-09

    I bought this cd for my karaoke party. I immediatly returned it after finding my children singing the 'thong song' to their grandparents. That song has the 'n' word in it! I will never buy from this company again. I find them racist.

    3 out of 5 stars Not for kids.......2003-06-01

    This CD has several of the popular kid songs, which is why I bought it for my 10 year old. It also has a couple of songs that are not appropriate for kids including "Thong Song" which contains the "N" word.

    4 out of 5 stars Good, but not as good as Sound Choice.......2002-12-22

    Sybersound scores big with this, the second volume on the hot hits series from Party Tyme. Not many errors were found on this CD, and the background vocals do the song recreations justice.

    However, this CDG also tells us that Sybersound has some more ground to cover before it can join karaoke giant Sound Choice, who has mastered the karaoke CDG market, at the top of the pack. The music found are not recreated with as much precision and as much perfection as SC has had, and sometimes, background vocals don't show up where they should ("Higher" is a prime example in this). Sybersound's only two advatages over Sound Choice is that they are easier to be found, and they are cheaper to buy than SC's CD-G's are.

    Flaws notwithstanding, this is a cheap way to get some fun, and possibly learn how to sing. Just don't expect this to be found in a major karaoke bar anytime soon.

    3 out of 5 stars Pretty good teen music.......2002-11-10

    I must rate the Party Tyme series much lower, however. It appears that synthsizers and drum machines work pretty good for the teen music, but not the songs that count on real guitar. I WILL say that their country music Karaoke CDs seem to have more real guitar than the pop, oldies, etc.

    4 out of 5 stars Lots of good moments.......2007-01-07

    Surprisingly, I heard a rave review for this album on NPR and I picked up the album on their recommendation. I've had it boomin' in my Bimmer for a few days now and overall I'm satisfied.

    This album is not quite "solid gold". However, no track is a total loss here. Rather, a few just jump out as a bit annoying. That said, when this music hits its stride it's powerful and has me reaching for the volume to make it louder. So far track 9 ("Back Then" by Mike Jones) has stood out as the most distinctive and intriguing track on the mix. The track by Three 6 Mafia is also quite good.

    Towards the end one song, "icy" by Gucci Mane, does seem to break the mold the others were cut from and feels a bit more like hip-hop/r&b than crunk. After 16 songs of hard spittin', crooning computerized vocals induce a "WTF is this?" reaction.

    Overall, I recommend this album so long as you're okay with frequent N-bombs, women portrayed as little more than ornaments and ho's, and the frequent juxtaposition of diamonds to dicks.
