Amazon.com essential recording

Ordinarily, it pays to be wary of collections such as these, which often promise a lot but deliver a mishmash of disconnected excerpts. This disc, however, is something of an exception: you really do get just about all of Puccini's best arias, which is possible, because he didn't write so many operas that choosing the best moments becomes a matter of the producer's personal taste. Also, Puccini's operas are so popular that every major label has excellent complete recordings of all of them, so in making this compilation it was possible to cast from strength: all the singers here are fine. In fact, the only proviso that needs to be made before you rush out and add this disc to your collection is that it's wrong to assume that all of Puccini's best tunes lie in his arias. The opening 10 minutes of any one of his operas will tell you that's not true. So by all means enjoy this disc--then start sampling the operas complete. --David Hurwitz

5 out of 5 stars Correction to the entry by "sergiocqh".......2005-11-08

"Quando m'en vo" is not omitted from this CD; it is just called "Musetta's waltz song." It is the same aria.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic!.......2003-10-14

This is one of the first opera CDs I ever got. It's wonderful for just about any body;from the newbies like me or the opera fanatics. I especially like 'In Questa Reggia'. Buy it now!!

5 out of 5 stars HATE OPERA? THIS ONE WILL CHANGE YOUR MIND.......2003-09-04

The Ultimate Puccini Collection features some of Puccini's most arias and will appeal to even the most ardent operaphobes.

A great listening experience featuring some of the greatest opera performers of all time.

3 out of 5 stars "Ultimate" only if you like your opera "al fresco"!.......2002-06-13

The music is without question, among the most beautiful ever written. But the quality of the fidelity tells me that many of the selections were recorded live in concert in outdoor venues. I wish that was clear to me before I bought the disc. So, is the music the ultimate? YES! Is the recording the ultimate? NO!

4 out of 5 stars Wonderful Performance but Average Recording Quality.......2002-02-18

I love opera! I love Puccini! Not only is the vocalism important to me, but the quality of the recording as well. I enjoy my hi-tech sound system. I like to feel as if I am sitting in the front row of the first balcony when I listen to opera. This CD is excellent! The vocalists were well chosen. The technical performances are eloquent and emotional, as Puccini should be. However, the quality of the recording is not very good. No matter how you adjust your sound system, the recording is a bit tinny and as a result, the emotional high points of the arias are not as vibrant as they could be if the recording were of better quality. I would recommend this CD to anyone who loves Puccini and who is not as finicky as I!

I liked this but the sounds are a bit old now... I like the more energetic stuff coming from Europe currently -- for example EURO CLUB HITS VOL. 1 which is on iTunes and Rhapsody and etc.

5 out of 5 stars This is your night... dancing until the morning light..........2007-03-12

This CD is awesome! I love it! It makes you want to dance all night!

5 out of 5 stars THE BEST!.......2005-03-08

This awesome CD reminds me of my senior year of high school at the American School of the Hague in the Netherlands. Weekends were spent dancing my butt off to these awesome songs, I miss eurotechno, and eurodance! To anyone who loves to dance this is a must, not to mention this CD will have you moving at the gym!

3 out of 5 stars An ok dance CD.......2003-11-30

This is an ok dance CD. Only about 4 good dance tracks worth the listen such as "Who Do U Love" - Deborah Cox, "Be My Lover" - La Bouche feat. Melanie Thornton, "Dreamer" - Livin' Joy, "Beautiful Life" - Ace of Base. The rest is basically pretty boring. Not a great dance CD, but still an ok one. Get this only if you like most of the tracks and artists on this dance compilation album.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Eerie and dark music for the soul.......2007-03-08

Midnight Syndicate's 13th HOUR is the perfect album to listen to while you write; its dark mood and somber atmosphere are inspiring to me when I write a horror tale. It also serves as great background music to your Halloween party or gothic evening among friends.

This was the first album I got from them and I want all the others too because I'm hooked now. They recently re-released their early works under the title OUT OF THE DARKNESS. Also, check out VAMPYRE and GATES OF DELIRIUM.

Whether you're the Goth type or a casual fan wanting some cool music to set the ambiance at a party, 13th HOUR is an awesome symphonic horror album.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic!.......2007-02-03

I write gothic horror stories and love to listen to music that "puts me into another world". I'm so glad that I found this CD. It has definately inspired some of my best writing.

5 out of 5 stars great music.......2007-01-11

used for a Halloween party, it was perfect really set the mood

5 out of 5 stars very cool.......2007-01-10

I'm a halloween fan from wayyy back and this is the best cd I've found for just the occasion.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Atmospheric c.d........2007-01-08

We had this playing in all the rooms of our house during our Halloween party last year, all the tracks going in different order in a continuous loop. This set quite a mood! Everyone commented on the music and how great it was. Just the right amount and use of sound effects. So many Halloween type c.d.'s go too far and become just corny and that wrecks the mood you're trying to create in the first place. After the party, when everyone left but for my cousins and us, we just had this playing in the library and had a ball scaring the wits out of each other with our own "personal" ghost stories. We're not into the whole goth culture thing, but we can appreciate what M.S. is doing. To listen to this at only Halloween is a mistake, you're short changing yourself. Put this on curled up with you're favorite suspense, thriller or horror book for an added dimension to the experience.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars The best Ultimate Dance Party!.......2001-04-11

Sure, the mixing isn't the best, and the songs are older, but this compilation can still start a party easily. The whole album is upbeat and has many great hits. The album starts out with a lot of dance pop classics. There is Gina G's Ooh Ahh (Just A Little Bit), La Bouche's Sweet Dreams, Crystal Water's 100% Pure Love and the huge hit Jellyhead by Crush. Toni Braxton's huge ballad Un Break My Heart gets a upbeat remix by two of today's biggest remixers: Soul Solution and Hex Hector. The result is stunning, and Toni's vocals work perfectly with the beats. Whitney Houston covers Annie Lennox's Step By Step, which leads into the song Insomnia, which has kind of a futuristic feel to it. Two of the next songs, Mo Money Mo Problems and the outstanding Things Just Ain't The Same are very hip-hop/R&B styled and show the future of Ultimate Dance Party compilations, as this was the last one that was mostly dance. With just a few songs left, they manage to pull together some awesome tracks, including the childish but fun The Child Inside and Mark Morrison's upbeat and bouncy Return Of The Mack. And of course no dance compilation would be complete without the famous What Is Love from the Saturday Night Live skits. This compilation is one of the best (And funnest) out there. Definately pick this up! It's worth the price.

4 out of 5 stars Good CD.......2000-07-24

Want to feel like your in a dance club? Well this is the CD for you. All great, great songs.

You just can't sit still with this one!

5 out of 5 stars Good music, good beat.......1999-09-24

Most of the dance songs in the album are popular and well-known in dance clubs. So, having this CD is like owning your dance club. Although the music is non-stop from track to track, the mixing between songs is sometimes not that well done. Anyway, I like this CD very much.

3 out of 5 stars It could be better.......2007-06-03

The dj attemps to bring together good cuts with radio jams and it should be separate. Wish Doctor and Perculator and not in the same league as the others. House or club should have a deep trance like section separate from the regulra club radio version.

3 out of 5 stars missing a great classic house song?.......2007-05-10

was reading the table of contents on this cd-it takes me back to the days of college and all the frats and other social clubs puttting on outdoor parties on campus with live dj's mixing to attract newbies to their clubs!! How can any cd that is supposed to be an ultimate mix of classic house not have the Outhere Brothers "Boom"? Man that song was ripping all over campus for a very long time, almost three years after it came out you could still hear it being played. I would much rather have that song on this cd than beat that b**ch, a song that made me uncomfortable even back in those days, and makes me feel doubly uncomfortable now. It's just such an angry song, hardly what i would call music to have a party to. Despite the oversight of not including Boom, it sounds like it might be a good cd---i wont buy it cause i outgrew my house phase a long time ago--i prefer softer stuff now, but if youre looking for something to take you way back to the carefree days of youth, i suspect this cd might just do the trick.

3 out of 5 stars YES LATIN BEAT IS GOOB BUT ?.......2007-04-17

2 out of 5 stars Burning Down The House.......2007-02-14

You've gotta wonder, with a name like "The Ultimate House Megamix," if someone isn't over-compensating for something. This goes ditto for the DJ in question, "Bad Boy" Joe.

Put simply, this is trash. House music is a delicate balance between creativity and repetition, and this set has none of one and too much of the other. Add in some aimless scratch dubs and awkward transition after awkward transition, and what you're left with is something seriously stunted. Apparantly "Bad Boy" Joe thinks that by amping the bass and double-looping lame sound clips ("beat that b**ch with a bat" being the champion of all of this disc's ridiculous lifts), he's creating house, let alone "ultimate" house. Let alone a "megamix" of "ultimate" house.

This is angry, juvenile stuff. Even the few tracks that are tailor-made for house mixes like these (Reel II Reel's "I Like to Move It" and "Nu Nu" by Lidell Townsell) are riddled with so many bad cuts and reverbs that all the juice is squeezed out of them. Altogether, the record sounds like it was molded and mastered by a newbie off of a pair of basement hotplates.

Avoid this garbage. Instead, check out the Renaissance series, or, uh, anywhere else at all, really.

(P.S. As may be evident by my tone, this was intended to be a one-star review. I'm not sure why two showed up instead.)

4 out of 5 stars LOVED THIS CD.......2007-02-02

5 out of 5 stars You gotta be original, man.......2006-03-23

The great Jazz saxophone genius who influenced so many tenor sax players said, "play yourself!" Which leads me to Heather Small. I first discovered her as she knocked my socks off singing the old Tom Jones 60's hit-I Who Have Nothing. It's part of a British tribute to American songwriting legends Lieber and Stoller. While all the current divas sing by not ever ending a note but fly unemcumbered into the stratasphere and never a brethe. Well Small sings in the range of the middle and often lower register. She stops for words! She sounds very much like the great Nina Simone and has a way of scooping n otes very reminiscent of Cher. And Cher is a much better singer than she is given credit for. Small and M People are refreshingly original, and side man Chris "Snake" Davis is an added thrill.

4 out of 5 stars Decent hits collection for the casual Listener.......2005-05-12

Mike Pickering's UK dance/soul act M People fronted by ex-Hot House vocalist Heather Small were an integral part of Britain's soundtrack in the 1990s. Clocking up an amazing 18 top 40 hits, and 3 major albums that spent the better part of the decade in the charts its hard not to see why. Despite all the hits the act amazingly never had a UK #1 single!

This release "Ultimate Collection" is an update from 2000's "The best of M People" which attempts to cover the M People's single output from 1993-2000 as well as Heather Small's solo work. This release perplexed me. Fans who bought the original "Best of M People" were excited to get 3 new songs but complained that the release omitted smaller hits "excited" and "love rendezvous"- the latter a hard to find single and very much different from the version that appeared on "Bizarre fruit". With the "ultimate collection" the label listened to fans and included the two tracks but then cut "dreaming" and the top 10 single "itchycoo park" which doesnt make sense.

Regardless of the track listing casual fans and listeners will find this to be an amazing album (especially those who passed on Heather's solo album "proud") as all the major hits are here including their worldwide hit "moving on up". For those looking for an upbeat positive dance/ soul album "ultimate collection" by the M People is definetly worth the import price.

5 out of 5 stars Best of the chillouts.......2006-09-12

Don't waste your money on other chillouts. This is THE ONE to get: Hayling, Destiny, Edge of the Ocean, Teardrop, Street Spirit, Swollen, and others that you may or may not like... All things considered, there is no better chillout album than this.

5 out of 5 stars 4.5 stars. Solid Chill Compilation, Much Better than 2001.......2004-09-20

4.5 Stars... This CD is very good, and much better than the below average 2001! I recommend the entire series, expept for the original 2001 (the 2001 isn't that good). 2002, 2003, '04, and '05 are outstanding. I own all the discs from 2001 thru 05. If they can keep this up, I'll look forward to purchasing another CD ASAP!

5 out of 5 stars Awesome........2003-11-19

This CD is awesome. I've had it for a year and a half now, and I still listen to it all the time.

4 out of 5 stars Ace for the casual electronic fan, or chillout beginners.......2002-11-05

Right, no surprises here, just a big ol' chunk of big names and some exclusive remixes by the chillout regulars currently cashing in. All calculated for maximum appeal, of course. Brit bird Dido has her brother offer up some strings and trip-hop with "Here With Me," and it's actually quite lovely, grandiose even - matched by Coldplay's "Trouble." FC Kahuna look beyond their electro-disco tastes for "Hayling," a beeping electronic waterfall backed by that GusGus gal Sia Furler. And whatta you know, Zero 7, Bent, and Delirium all show up again.

Now, too bad about whiny Radiohead, buy your moody pals probably like that stuff, and the Dusted mix of McLachlan's "Angel" just adds unnecessary beats. So how good is Chillout 2002? Pretty ace as a gift or for the casual electronic music fan, but dance aficionados should be aware the new remixes alone (barring "Intensify") don't warrant a cash layout if you have most the other tunes.

4 out of 5 stars Sexy !!!.......2002-08-24

This is the sultriest compilation I had ever owned,this is not to chill,exactly,this is to spend a special night with your loved one,I like the fact that most of the songs have a beggining and an ending and aren't seamed one to another,that makes it easier if you like to make your own compilations,also I like the alternative versions of many very common "chill" songs like "Teardrop".
The only reason I gave it only four stars is because I'm kinda tired of compilations that have "Here with me","Destiny" and "Swollen",don't get me wrong,I thing they are beautiful songs,but with all the music out there,one would think that they would stop including these songs in every compilation!!!.
All in all,a very enjoyable CD.

Took me back to me youth, when dancing in the street was the way to do it!

5 out of 5 stars C+C Fans will love it.......2005-06-18

A couple variations on some of the C+C tunes you know, plus a few other good tracks. Boriqua Anthem is the absolute best and a fun song. The preview online here doesn't do that track any justice - it really isn't a representative section of the song. But if you like C+C, you will enjoy this disc.

4 out of 5 stars Great!.......2003-03-30

I really liked C&C Music Factory when they came out, Boriqua Anthem being one of my all time favorite dance tunes. Though this work is a compilation of several other CD's it still flows well. In the original CD's there's a tighter sequencing but thsi is still a fabulous dance/exercise CD to have on hand.

4 out of 5 stars Disco or Dance? Whatever you call it, it makes you move!.......2002-01-01

During the early 90's no group filled up the dance floor like C & C Music Factory. Once Zelma Davis's cry of "Everybody Dance Now" was heard, hordes of dancers jumped, gyrated, bumped and ground to their hearts content.

This set of 10 extended remixes dramatically showcases the group headed by Robert Civilles and David Cole. From the familiar ("Gonna Make You Sweat," "Here We Go Let's Rock & Roll," "Things that Make You Go Hmmmmm...," and "A Deeper Love") to the more obscure ("Keep it Comin'" and "Robi-Robs' Boriqua Anthem"), "Ultimate" is the perfect party package.

The Barry White-influenced "Take a Toke" is a welcome surprise among the selections. And the final cut "I Found Love" features the powerful vocals of Martha Wash, a diva that "out divas" all others.

5 out of 5 stars Maxximum funky sensation!.......2001-06-19

"Ultimate" by C&C contains all of their famous club anthems in extended versions or totally remixed. Sounds that Clivilles & Cole produced range from slow-tempo r'n'b (like "Take A Toke"), pop-rap chartbreakers (like "Gonna Make You Sweat" and "Here We Go") to garage, deep and latin-house masterpieces (like "A Deeper Love" etc.) They all contain funky grooves and positive vibration. A real funky-music lover should have THIS album in his collection.
