Since the breathtaking purity of her debut, Living with Ghosts, Patty Griffin has proven she can luxuriate in glamorous pop, rock like a biker, hold her own on stage with the Dixie Chicks, and write hit songs and singer-songwriter classics. What she hadn't done is craft an album as wholly exquisite and emotional as her talent. With the spare, acoustic 1000 Kisses, she has done just that. In the basement of longtime guitarist Doug Lancio's Nashville home, Griffin takes a suite of intensely personal songs (and three covers, including a tingling version of Bruce Springsteen's "Stolen Car") into the close confidence of her airy but twang-shaded voice, and draws accordion, cello, mandolin, brushed drums, and even Emmylou Harris into a candid and rare musical space. After a four-year wait, 1000 Kisses is more than reason to celebrate Griffin's return--it's a guileless, glowing masterpiece. --Roy Kasten

Customer Reviews:

Patti Griffin's finest so far.......2007-07-03

This CD with Long Ride Home and Making Pies stands out as Patti's finest, and one of the best CDs of the decade. While listening to this CD you will sit down in a big car and imagine what you could do to make your life better - thinking about it from the end to the present. You'll pick out words you wish you never said and reimagine yourself as a better person. You'll venture into the world of someone for whom coping with loss is the rebirth of hope everyday in a fresh baked pie. Patti tells stories that envelop us in the reality of someone else for a few minutes. Amidst the listen, we realize these songs aren't just about someone else. They are us too. 1000 Kisses is a personal and emotionally rich experience in contemporary folk.

Patty Griffin was a recent discovery for me, but, since hearing "Mad Mission" from "Living with Ghosts," I have bought all of her recordings. This CD is my favorite. I have bought copies of it for all of my friends and they love it too. You will not regret buying this.

love this cd!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-03-10

i found this cd while looking at the new lucinda williams cd, i decided to take a listen. i had heard of patti griffin before but never listened to her music.....big mistake. i decided to buy this cd instead of the new l. williams one. i love this cd. my fav. songs are rain and tomorrow night. when i played rain for the first time, i had chillbumps all over. this cd makes me want to sit and have a nice glass of wine and i don't even drink wine:). anyway i just ordered children running through, can't wait till it gets here.

Patty Rarely Misses.......2007-02-15

I have to disagree with the reviewer who picks "Chief" as a weak spot. Not only is it my favorite on the album, it's my favorite Patty Griffin song.

Listen to Rain and Stolen Car!.......2007-02-13

Patty Griffin is one of my favorites. My favorites on this CD are Rain and Stolen Car. This CD is a little more melancholy than her others, but this can serve an excellent purpose in our lives as well. If you are looking for excellent music to sing along with in the car, buy this CD!

As Richard Thompson explains in his typically droll annotation, 1000 Years of Popular Music came about after Playboy asked various musicians to rank their top ten songs of the millennium. While most dipped no farther back than a few decades--a century at most--Thompson's musical memory rose to the challenge. The result is this concert set's encapsulation of 22 songs that trace a musical progression from the Middle Ages through Britney Spears, with Judith Owen and Debra Dobkin providing spare instrumental and rich vocal support. Released as a concert DVD with two audio CDs, the selection is irrepressibly idiosyncratic, from rounds, madrigals, and British balladry that recall Thompson's early days in Fairport Convention through the music-hall singalong of "I Live in Trafalgar Square" to dips into the songbooks of the Kinks ("See My Friends"), Squeeze ("Tempted"), and Bowling for Soup ("1985"). Among the highlights are the soulful tenderness of the 17th century's "Bonnie St. Johnstone," a haunting "Shenandoah," a samba arrangement of Cole Porter's "Night and Day," and a deliriously rocking rendition of the Easybeats' "Friday on My Mind." --Don McLeese

Album Description

Single DVD with Two Audio CD's This latest Richard Thompson release, 1000 Years of Popular Music, actually contains songs from the 11th Century, miners songs and even…"Oops! I Did it Again!" All songs are performed by a trio, with Thompson on acoustic guitar and vocals, Debra Dobkin on percussion, and songstress Judith Owen adding vocals. "The idea for this project came from Playboy Magazine - I was asked to submit a list, in late 1999, of the ten greatest songs of the Millennium. Hah! I thought, hypocrites - they don't mean millennium, they mean twenty years - I'll call their bluff and do a real thousand-year selection. My list was similar to the choices here on this CD, starting in about 1068, and winding slowly up to 2001. That they failed to print my list among others submitted by rock's luminaries, is but a slight wound - it gave me the idea for this show, which has been performed occasionally, and will hopefully receive a few more airings. The idea is that Popular Music comes in many forms, through many ages, and as older forms get superceded, sometimes the baby is thrown out with the bathwater - great ideas, tunes, rhythms, styles, get left in the dust of history, so let's have a look at what's back there, and see if still does the trick. What appears on this CD is a performance, rather than a chronological, distillation of several different shows - hence some gaps in the 17th and 18th centuries, and too much weight on Music Hall and Rock & Roll - we just felt that some performances weren't quite captured - perhaps on Part Two?"

For all Richard Thompson fans this is a real treat. The vocals by Judith Owen and Debra Dobkin are great. Excellent all around!

1000 Years of GREAT Popular Music.......2007-01-04

I was invited to see this show at the Berklee Performance Center in Boston when it came to town. I'm a big Richard Thompson fan, but I wasn't sure if I would enjoy this "survey"of a thousand years of popular music. I needn't have worried. From start to finish, this is an entertaining, even startlingly entertaining show, and the people who filmed it did an excellent job of capturing it. Richard's guitar playing is terrific, and his singing is some of the best he's ever done, perhaps prompted by the demands of some of the material. Nothing here sounds pedantic, and nothing is boring. Richard's dry wit is in evidence throughout. The special treat is how much music comes out of three people, and here Richard is ably served by Judith Owen on vocals and occasional keyboard and Debra Dobkin on vocals and drums/percussion. One of the things I took away from the performance I saw was how INTO the music these three were on stage, and the DVD brings that right back.

I urge anyone who has gotten as far as considering this package to relax, stop considering it, buy it, and enjoy.

The package contains a DVD of the show and two CD's of the music, along with a short booklet about the show concept and the songs.

Thompson the alchemist turns poo to gold..........2006-09-28

This project originated out of rejection. A true non-reflection of life if ever one existed. Once upon a time, Playboy coveted Thompson's list of "the millenium's best songs". That is, until they saw it. This list included such chart toppers as "Sumer Is Icumen In" from 1260, "King Henry V's Conquest of France" from the 15th century, "Blackleg Miner" from the 19th century, and the bizarre Nat King Cole swinger "Orange Colored Sky". Then reality inverted. One of the least curmudgeonly magazines greeted Thompson's list with an icy silence. Perhaps they felt that those musty old songs would clash with the eternal blaze of naked airbrushed youth? Unflinching, Thompson turned to an art older than some of this set's songs: Alchemy. He miraculously turned what Playboy construed as poo into gleaming bullion. This shaft truly led to gold. So much so that Thompson has hit the road with his "1000 Years of Popular Music" twice.

Music is dang old, after all. Greeks and Romans rocked out. Medieval madrigals, armed with lutes and windpipes, pranced through verdant forests. Even Victorians danced. So why relegate hundred of years of great tunes to the sadly cobwebbed "early music" section? You know what they say: old songs never die, they just receive damning new retail categories. In defiance, Thompson dipped into this neglected slush pile of human all too human music and constructed a millenium set list that would make the Long Now Foundation proud.

Flanked by vocalist/keyboardist, and part mime, Judith Owen and percussionist/vocalist Debra Dobkin, the Thompson-led trio jiggle cochleas through musical history. They open with one of humanity's oldest songs: "Sumer Is Icumen In". A celebration of the rebirth of spring, it also includes a middle english word for "fart". Now that's history. The group sing it as a round (during tour one of "1000 Years" Thompson sang it solo). Next, lone Thompson conjures up the events leading to the battle of Agincourt in a fifteenth century song. France-bashing apparently has a longer history than the 2003 U.S. Congress realized. "Freedom Toast" is nothing! Try Agincourt! This beautiful song retells the affront the French handed to the young King Henry V: three tennis balls for him to "play with". No king would take that. Henry didn't. Thompson then switches to Italian for the amazing "So Ben Mi Ca Bon Tempo". A truly unforgettable song that will even get feet encased in concrete tapping.

Following a few incredible songs dealing with infanticidal mothers, eternal punishment, and Missouri rivers, "Blackleg Miner" exposes the history of "scab" songs. Women won't even look at the Blacklegs. A nasty lot, indeed. Time whizzes by as the hilarious down-and-out "I Live in Trafalgar Square" and a Gilbert and Sullivan tune close out the nineteenth century. Don't miss the high "C" in the Mikado's "Bellow Of the Blast". Thompson and Owen show us just what vocal cords were made for. "Java Jive" introduces the jazzy twentieth century with a smooth pean to caffeinated drinks.

The twentieth century focuses on rock music, with a few exceptions. On the DVD, when Thompson introduces the act's single country song, "A-11", he responds to the unenthused stillness by saying "I can tell we're no longer in Texas". Some head turning surprises pop out in the second half of the set (on CD number two). The Kinks' haunting "See My Friends" and Australia's rollicking "Friday On My Mind" will make musical antennas erect. And then the evening's biggest blast, "Oops!... I Did it Again", made famous by Britney Spears, will shock those who disparage pop music as inane trash. Thompson proves beyond doubt that the song has merit. His final dance moves on the DVD justify the price alone. Prepare thy brain. Leaving Britney behind, the gang bursts into 2001 with "1985", a ridiculously catchy pop song about a sentimental and uncool mom. After that auditory explosion, Thompson leaves the audience hissing with the a capella "Sam Hall". The DVD's final scene shows Thompson waving his fists at the audience. A great closing to an amazing show. A thousand years later and we've arrived. That'll show Playboy.

This DVD and CD set captures the second "1000 Years" outing. Thompson's website offers a CD of the first tour. Enough changes from the two sets to justify getting both. But this set also contains a fabulously produced DVD. Thompson's stage banter gets cut from the CD, but the DVD preserves every word. Listen for the great joke about european stereotypes ("In heaven the English answer the door..."). The DVD also includes snatches of a Thompson interview, soundcheck, and the band's grand entrance. No Thompson fan should miss this set. Even people with a vague interest in music history should check it out. Thompson, now in his fifties, proves that age only encumbers the uncreative. "1000 Years of Popular Music" stands comfortably next to his best work. Not bad for a rejection.

Absolute Magic.......2006-08-17

I've watched this show every night since it arrived three weeks ago. It's not just the excellent production, the sheer talent and huge versatility of the performers. This show has some magic ingredient. Utterly captivating.

Finally a Thompson live DVD that really clicks.......2006-07-01

The first two Richard Thompson live dvd's were marred by slightly uninspiring song selections and fairly basic camera work. But third time's the charm - this lovely dvd presentation of Thompson's "1000 Years of Popular Music" show is simply one of the most essential items in his entire catalogue - along with "Henry the Human Fly", "I Want To See the Bright Lights Tonight", "Shoot Out the Lights", "The Old Kit Bag" and "Rumor and Sigh". And it's essential not only for Thompson fans, but for just about anyone who's interested in the history of popular music. Starting with old English folk song "Summer is a-cumming in" (which was also sung at the climax of 70s horror movie classic The Wicker Man), and ending with a version of "1985" (a download hit for the group Bowling for Soup a few months prior to this recording) and in between covering everything from English music hall, Gilbert & Sullivan, jazz standards and merseybeat - this is a wonderful selection of haunting songs. No, you won't find any of Richard Thompson's legendary electric guitar workouts on here, and you won't find any of his own songs, even though many of them could have matched the timeless quality of the great stuff that IS on here - but the dvd DOES manage to present Thompson as one of the most plain enjoyable live performers in the world. And it's all packaged in a lovely box with artwork, song notes and two bonus cd's. Now if only they'd do a presentation of Thompson's OWN song catalogue in this format - and that's a hint, in case any of the people responsible for this great set happen to be reading this.

I dig it.......2006-11-02

I just finished working in a haunted house in which I was in the House of 1000 Corpses room (as a cheerleader victim). I have not seen the movie but have been a long time fan of Rob. I hadn't heard the soundtrack either (shame on me) until the haunted house but I immediately fell in love with it and am going right out to buy it. Even after listening to it over and over again for several nights, 6+ hours at a time, one might think I'd never want to hear it ever again, but quite the opposite! My particular favorites are House of 1000 Corpses, Dr. Wolfenstein, Brick House, Run Rabbit Run, and some of the musical pieces with signature heavy base lines. The Ramones and other tracks are definite bonuses. If you liked Hellbilly Deluxe, Super Sexy Swinging Sounds, etc you will like this one too. It's a great energizer for a night on the town or for scaring the *@#&! out of people...

Rob Zombie at his best.......2005-11-04

I purchased the CD on a whim, likely the movie and rob zombie. But this cd surpasses all of the other soundtracks to movies. Rob Zombie really out do's himself with creepy lyrics and ghostly noises. The short movie quotes in between a few of the songs, also added charcter. It also includes a Ramones track, " Now I wanna sniff some glue," which flowed well with the metal tone of Rob Zombie. All in all, I listen to this CD all the time and enjoy it more than I ever thought I would. A great buy.

With a vibe & style you can't hide from for long........2005-07-04

Mr. Zombie, as usual, hints on psychotic perfection with this great release. Because he delivers such great projects, he has and will remain my favorite artist. I'm looking forward to what he has to offer next.

The Way Soundtracks Should Be..........2005-06-17

One of the best horror flicks in recent memory led to one of the best soundtracks. Rob Zombie himself actually performs 4 of the songs on this soundtrack, which also features sound clips from the film, and let me say that the songs he performs are some of the best songs he's done in his entire career. One of the standout tracks on this soundtrack is the Slim Whitman version of "I Remember You." If you saw the film, the song is played during a rather memorable death sequence. The Ramones "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue" is one here, and so Is Buck Owens! I'm no expert but when are you ever gonna find Buck Owens, The Ramones, and Slim Whitman on the same album ever again? Buy this one fellas. Something for everyone, not just Rob fanatics and gorehounds.

GO SEE THE DEVIL'S REJECTS..SEQUEL TO HOUSE OF 1,000 CORPSES OPENING JULY 2005!

Best soundtrack ever!.......2005-05-30

This is one of the most intesting soundtracks ever done for a movie. I love that Rob Zombie included music that is not only not his own but also very different from his own. I love Rob and his music but I think he will go far with Movies and Soundtracks as well, he is very open minded and has a great sense of music in it's place no matter what style. Everyone should own this CD.

Remember all of the year-2000 nervousness in the latter part of 1999? That was nothing. As the year 1000 approached, people all over the Christian world were convinced that the Apocalypse--as depicted in the biblical Book of Revelation--and the end of the world were at hand. In one of the more interesting musical program ideas to be inspired by the turn of the calendrical odometer, Anonymous 4 revisits the original "millennium madness" with a disc of chant from around the year 1000--specifically, a Mass for the Feast of the Ascension, one of the few occasions on which the liturgy included readings from the Book of Revelation. This is the oldest written Western music to have survived, and it's difficult even to decipher (the original notation has no staff lines or clear indications of rhythm), let alone perform. Yet, the challenges involved seem to have done these ladies good: not only is their performance both assured and confident, but one can hear new facets in their vocal sound--a sound that, however beautiful it might be, some listeners find monotonous. (One new facet is Jacqueline Horner, the quartet's newest member, for whom this is the first recording.) The singers experiment with interpretation of ornaments that are indicated in the manuscript sources (there's a fascinating little trill that sounds rather like a cooing dove); in some of the chants, they add an additional line in accordance with the principles of improvising polyphony that were laid out in 10th- and 11th-century treatises. The entire program seems thoroughly considered, as well as immaculately executed. If you count on the consistently pure, silky tone and meditative quality that has made Anonymous 4 world-famous, you'll definitely find it here; if you've gotten bored with them, you might find this disc a fascinating surprise. --Matthew Westphal

Want to hear something spectacular?.......2007-05-23

For most folks, Gregorian Chants are probably a little off the beaten track. This is a stellar recording that's hard to beat, and the best of my Gregorian Chant collection. You won't be disappointed.

Lovely.......2006-03-03

A lovely performance of music from the beginning of the western musical tradition. The vocal quality of the performance is first rate and the music itself is very interesting. Recommended strongly.

Perfectly lovely - wrong, but still perfectly lovely........2004-06-28

For those of you who - like me - have had a couple experiences with Gregorian Chant that moved you deeply - and now you need some Gregorian Chant for those moods when nothing else is right - this is it. "A Mass For The End Of Time" is beautiful, and rich, and the selections intense and moving. This is exactly what most people reading this are looking for. Furthermore the performers seem to have captured the spirit of the music - which is critical because this is spiritual music. So why do I give it 4 stars?

Gregorian Chant is not music that can be removed from its place and time well. It is site specific - it should be heard live in a cathedral whose walls are stone or at least in a place that reflects sound - setting up resonance inside the head. Gregorian Chant is a form of meditation that is distinctly medieval European. The group that performs "A Mass For The End Of Time" is 4 women called Anonymous. But Gregorian Chant was written for men - it has different feel when men do it. Anonymous is very good - but the music would work even better with 4 equally good male voices.

Year 1000--A Mass for the End of Time.......2004-01-04

The year AD 1000 appeared to be an apocalyptic harbringer of destruction to the devout Catholics of Western Europe. This collection of medieval chants based on themes of God's impending wrath and the judgement of the world are excellent primary sources for understanding the mystical religious mindset of the days of yore. Gregorian Chant, while different from Byzantine (Greek) and Russian chanting, is a very methodological and otherworldly form of music. It's monotone is radically opposed to the harsh discord of "rock n' roll" and "rap" music which sound like broken machinery that are so popular among all aspects of society, even the so-called "Christian rock." Although the music itself is sung in Latin, the disc is accompanied by a booklet which gives the lyrics in English translation (along with a few other languages).

A Peace Beyond All Understanding.......2002-04-30

I have always been highly suspicious of "spiritual people". Why them and not me? I was only looking for pretty music when I, a rock n roller by upbringing, purchased this CD. What followed during the listening of this CD, was a deeply meditative state as I let the music, so beautiful words cannot describe, transport me into a deeper consciousness. There I was able to pray from the deepest part of my soul. A first. It has immediately replaced my incremental valium use. I am not a meditator, not into Yoga, don't even like people who are, but this music sounds like the holy ghost if it can be personified, who pleads with such compassion for each and every one of us in a world gone mad. The gregorian chant music on this particular cd seems to be telling the story of time and man to God. It is a sad and compassionate tale that doesn't miss a detail as its heavenly and soulful sound tells in words beyond my understanding a long story filled with strife, sin, pain and sorrow, yet with such love and feeling that it catches its listener up as though it were part of the communication to God and lifts the listener to a serene place where all of the cement jungle, and hostile traffic, and hate among people seem to become the other dimension and not the dimension you find yourself in when listening to this CD. Maybe it is something different for every listener. This was my experience.

The vastly improved sonics which the Deutsche Grammophon production team achieves with its 24/96 remastering of the guitarist's 1952-1969 mono and stereo performances for Decca allow listeners to finally experience the rich tonal palette and intimate nature of Segovia's performance art in a manner commensurate with the fidelity of the original LP releases (minus the edgy digital glare and graininess of the MCA reissues). What emerges is a portrait of the artist as a lightning rod for great composers, such as Manuel Ponce, Federico Torroba, Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco, Isaac Albéniz, and Enrique Granados, all of whom enriched the 20th-century repertoire of solo and chamber works by custom-crafting works for this innovative guitarist (Segovia's interpretation of Joaquín Rodrigo's "Fandango" is a paradigm for his role in popularizing the modern Spanish idiom). Likewise, Segovias's work as an arranger in recasting baroque and medieval works for modern guitar, as well as his deep affection for 19th-century masters of the instrument such as Dionisio Aguado and Fernando Sor, shines forth on discs two and three. However, it is Segovia's romantic touch in transposing Bach's Partitas for Solo Violin--as on his virtuoso turns on the "Chaconne in D Minor"--that best illustrate his poetic conception of the instrument. --Chip Stern

Above All Others.......2006-10-16

John Williams, David Russell, Christopher Parkening, Julian Bream, et. al. all owe a great deal to this now departed giant. If you own ANY classical guitar recordings, you should purchase this collection. It's not only the finest remastering available, but an equisitely fine selection of Segovia's contribution to the genre and the art.

The Great Master, of Masters.......2005-06-28

Andrés Segovia was the great master of classical guitar. This set show us 400 years of music taken for the guitar, he was the first in give the guitar place like a cult instrument in 20th century through his works invaluable transcriptions of several instruments (cello, lute, etc.) of composers like Bach, Dowland, Manuel M. Ponce, Fernando Sor, Tárrega, etc.

The scope from Segovia has leaved footsteps in the great world of classical music, for his research and investigations about it. In this set we can listen pieces like "six pavanas" from the ending Age Middle of Luis Milán, and begginig of Rennasaince like Dowland's songs togheter Roncali Ludovico between others on CD 3.
Also show us the great spanish composer Enrique Granados, Torroba, Sor, icons of guitar music. I Basically bought this cd for "Pavane" 1-6 and that better found it in this GREAT SET. If you're a lover of Classical Music, or classical guitar this one of the greatest set box ever made in any genre!!!.

Andrés Segovia, Marquis of Salobreia, was born near Jaen, Granada, Spain. He became a guitarist against the double opposition of his parents. First, they opposed his learning the guitar and got him cello and piano teachers instead. When he persisted in teaching himself guitar, they opposed his becoming a musician. He sought a guitar teacher at the Granada Institute of Music when he studied there, but found none, so continued learning the instrument on his own. He made his debut at the Centro Artística in Granada at the age of 15. He played so skillfully that he was urged to become a professional soloist. He played in Madrid in 1912, at the Paris Conservatory in 1915, and in Barcelona in 1916, and made a wildly successful tour of South America in 1919. He made his formal debut in Paris on April 7, 1924, in a program which included a new work written for him by Albert Roussel, named Segovia. It was the first of many works which were written for him by distinguished composers, enriching the instrument's repertory as Segovia had elevated its artistic potential. His U.S. debut was at Town Hall, New York, on January 8, 1928.

Being self-taught, his technique was unique. It was, in fact, superior to that which was being taught at the time, and extended the flexibility and expressive possibilities of the instrument. The main difference was in the method of using the right hand for strumming and picking the strings: Segovia's method paid much attention to the means of attack: whether hard parts of the fingers, fleshy parts, or the nails were used; other subtleties that affected the dynamics of the instrument; and an economy of motion that allowed longer and more sustained playing. There were classical guitarists before him, and distinguished ones even when he appeared, but it was not an instrument that was regarded as a serious vehicle for classical music. Segovia personally changed that, and not by accident. No doubt affected by his parents' attitude toward his chosen career, he had a driving desire to make it so. He wrote numerous transcriptions of older music for lute and for the Spanish vihuela. He transcribed music of Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Chopin, Handel, and others. He commissioned works by Castelnuovo-Tedesco (notably the great suite Platero and I), Falla, Turina, Tansman, Villa-Lobos, Torroba, Ponce, and Rodrigo, whose Fantasia para un gentilhombre was written for him. His reinstatement of the guitar as a solo instrument was sealed by his becoming one of the great teachers of music history. He established guitar schools or courses at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana, Siena, Santiago de Compostela, and the University of California in Berkeley. His students included Alirio Diaz, Oscar Ghilia, and John Williams.

Segovia become one of the great names in classical music, whose mere name was enough to sell out houses worldwide. He received numerous awards and honors during his lifetime, including the Grand Cross of Isabela and Alfonso, the Gold Medal of the Royal Philharmonic Society of London, and many honorary degrees. The house where he was born had a commemorative plaque attached to it in 1969 proclaiming him the "leading son of the city." King Juan Carlos of Spain ennobled him as the Marquis of Salobreia in 1981, and in the same year a Segovia International Guitar Competition was established in his honor. He continued to give recitals and concerts until an advanced age, and had the rare opportunity, in 1984, of playing at a gala concert honoring the 75th anniversary of professional debut.

THIS GORGEOUS GUITAR MUSIC BEGS FOR LISTENING. . ........2004-02-24

__________________________________________________________________________________

. . . and I literally begged for this boxed set as a gift a while back and got lucky. The technical quality of the remastering is exquisite - the first 2 CD's especially sound as if you're in a recording studio with the master himself. (disc one includes "Fantasia Para Un Gentilhombre" & "Concierto Del Sur" and disc two "Castillos De Espana")

I've found they are now selling the individual CD's separately in the same packaging, so if you're on a limited budget you can collect them at your own speed or limit yourself to those selections you most want. I sincerely recommend them all however and if you buy the boxed set you get the added bonus of an excellent booklet.

There are very few CD's in my collection that I derive as much sheer pleasure listening to. This is indeed a 5 star Segovia collection!

beautiful selection of the decca segovia.......2003-10-02

there probably wasn't a classical guitarist alive in the 1950's and 60's who didn't know by heart all of segovia's decca albums and julian bream's spectacular recordings for rca and westminster. this set will be a stroll down memory lane for everyone with segovia schott editions in the attic, and essential listening for anyone interested in the classical guitar or in discovering a genuine musical genius -- the equal on his instrument of casals, rubenstein or heifitz on theirs.

segovia literally created the 20th century classical guitar out of an instrument with a cachet not far above the banjo. the booklet to the boxed set gives a fine overview of segovia's career and recording practice, though omitting many key details. (segovia innovated guitar concerts in large concert halls because he was among the first to use his fingernails, rather than bare fingertips, to pluck the strings, and pushed guitar makers to build larger, brighter and more sonorous instruments.)

each of the 4 separately cased cds generously samples (up to 80 minutes each) from (1) the guitar concerto; (2) 20th century compositions dedicated to segovia; (3) pieces for lute, vihuela and 19th century guitar, with some albeniz transcriptions thrown in; and (4) segovia's transcriptions of pieces by j.s. bach.

the digital sound in these recordings (almost all from the 1950's) is really superb, giving contour to every detail of the master tapes. it also reveals the changing recording standards of the early lp: though the sound is consistently vivid and balanced, the guitar is sometimes distant and echoy (a "tile bathroom" sound characteristic of the earliest lp's), or intimate but slightly muffled, or bright and contrasty with a hint of added reverb at the top. i was a little taken aback by the uneven dynamics and nail clatter that i hadn't noticed years ago in segovia's playing: modern recording and performance practice have changed expectations toward a more homogenous and finished sound. but there is a spontaneity, fire, grace, color, imagination and wit in segovia's playing that you won't find anywhere else ... well, excepting julian bream.

it's picky to second guess editorial decisions in a set as generous as this ... but what the heck: i really missed tansman's lovely suite of polish dances ("cavatina"), regretted the absence of a complete sonata or suite by manuel ponce, and would trade the boccherini "guitar" (transcribed cello) concerto for the castelnuovo-tedesco guitar concerto. that said, the performances here of rodrigo's "fantasia para un gentilhombre" and ponce's "concerto del sur" are among the best available, and the generous sampling sor etudes will remind all us graying guitarists of the many happy hours we spent practicing these pieces from the only edition then available -- segovia's own.

deutsche grammaphon has also released a 2-cd set of segovia recordings ("the art of andres segovia"), which duplicates only four pieces from this 4-cd boxed set, and veers more toward colorful transcriptions and single movement selections from longer works. together they make a 6 cd collection of many of the finest recordings by the man who started it all, spawned thousands of heirs and imitators -- and set the bar for them very, very high.

There's Only One Segovia.......2002-07-19

This is the PERFECT retrospective boxed set. DG has outdone itself with this career retrospective of Spanish classical guitar legend Andres Segovia. The set was released on the 15th anniversary of Segovia's death in 1987. From the famous "Fantasia para un gentilhombre" to transcriptions of J.S. Bach for the guitar, all four CDs showcase nothing but the genius of Segovia. The remastered DG recordings sound terrific and the accompanying booklet, complete with photographs from throughout the master's life in Spain, is excellent. If you love Spanish classical guitar and adore the 19th-Century romantic style of playing championed by Segovia, buy this set. You won't be disappointed. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Ursula 1000 is Fabulous as Always.......2006-11-04

Hey, change is good. Ursula 1000 does not disappoint in "Here Comes Tomorrow" with his branching out and trying new music. That is what is so amazing about Alex Gimeno -- that he is not afraid to experiment and venture into the unknown. Bravo to Ursula 1000!

"Kaboom" is an example of pure Ursula 1000 creativity and genius. But still he hasn't lost his sense of humor and displays it with his "play on words" song titles and mixing as in "Got Cha" and "Mirkin the Mystic". By the way, "Kaboom" has already been used on "Grey's Anatomy" and mixed with the stellar burlesque team "Dames Aflame" on YouTube. But to really get into Ursula 1000, you need to check him out live. Schedule can be found on Ursula 1000's MySpace page.

Versatility in musicians shouldn't be discouraged. I applaud Alex for going outside of his electro lounge parameters and for doing it so superbly. After all, Alex has produced tons of work (five releases on ESL alone) and his creativity is rapidly expanding. But in all honestly, to really appreciate Ursula 1000, catch him live.

YIKES!.......2006-05-09

I must warn every Ursula1000 fan out there who dug the cool, kitschy, retro lounge sounds of Ursula's Kinda Kinky, A Go Go or The Now Sound that they're in for a shock with Here Comes Tomorrow. Alex Gimeno, the mastermind behind Ursula1000, has decided this time around to try his hand at actual "songs" recruiting a bevy of guest artists to supply the vocals. It's understandable that after awhile artists want to branch out from the style that made them popular, but unlike Royskopp's successful transition from instrumental electronica to straight forward dance pop on The Understanding, Ursula1000 fails miserably with this attempt.

Gone are the laugh-out-loud samples from 50s and 60s movies and instructional tapes. Gone are the wonderfully catchy lounge beats. Instead we get a hodgepodge of styles from disco to electro to glam rock. The worst offenders are Hello, Let's Go To A Disco which, with it's annoying male vocals and loud abrasive electric guitar, doesn't seem to fit what we normally would expect from an Ursula1ooo release. Urgent/Anxious is about five minutes of some bubble gum pop singer saying Urgent, Anxious over and over again backed by an equally annoying and cheesy dance beat. Ragnarock tries to recapture that East India flair of tracks like That Hindu That You Do and Mr. Hrundi's Holiday. Whereas the sitars and beats fused perfectly together on those tracks, they fall flat and are annoying on this track.

Not to say that there aren't some typical Ursula-like tracks on here. Kaboom! opens the disc promisingly enough with Japanese singer Uzumi saying wacky things like "Swish! Bam! Kaboom! But wait, there's more," over a melange of loungey beats that we have grown to expect from Ursula. Got Cha follows the same familiar vein of Ursula's cha-cha infused tracks like Beatbox ChaCha or Mambo 1000. Descaraga En La Discoteca is a hyper Latin tinged track that takes what we usually expect from Ursula and moves it farther out into the unknown. This track is what I was expecting Here Comes Tomorrow to be like. I must say I'm a bit disappointed with this release, the first time ever with any Ursula1000 release. It would have been better had Alex released this under a side project pseudonym instead of under Ursula1000.

Freewheelin' and stylin'.......2006-04-04

Let me begin with the title track, which is actually the last track to say that this disc offers instant accessability in a comfort zone where martinis and plush comfy couches mesh and beckon your weary feet. "Here Comes Tommorrow" features the vocal stylings of Robert Conroy who sounds like a dead ringer for that space oddity David Bowie. Imagine twangy guitars that sound like they are being heard through a hollow metallic tube followed by a soaring trumpet introduction fitting of the beginnings of an ancient Spanish dance of death between man and animal that reveals a brooding Bowieesque number that is as simple and as compellng as the title itself. There is a certain mysterious ominous tone to the tile track that is very different from the qurky uptempo in your face dance themes throughout the disc. Somehow it says the party is over. But lets start from the beginning. "Kaboom" kicks off the jams for the beginning of an energetic ride on this disc that is a nostalgic reconstructed jet ride." Hello Let's Go to Disco" continues the musical dance beats with drum snippets that sound like Gary Glitters anthemic (you know its played in every stadium,da,da,da, dah,HEY!) "Rock and Roll" and the glam vocal s of Dougee Dimensional that once again reminds me of that Aladin Sane fellow. There is something for everyone on this disc including several Latin tinged numbers like the catchy "Got Cha" complete with Perez Pradoesque mambo grunts that mix well with the synths and electronic elements, the superbly hip electro Latin sounds of Los Amigos Invicibles lend their talents to "Descarga En La Discoteca" to create a nice mix that could be played in a club in London , New York or Buenos Aires. Keeping on the Latin side but if jazzy Brasileno music is more to your tastes than you'll love "Arrastao" which features vocals by Kojak intermixed with Barbara De Dominicis for a smooth innovative blend of hip hop, samba and jazz. The world party continues with an Eastern flair on "Ragnarock" that features sitars and laid back chill out exotic electro grooves by that one man music machine Alex Gimeno aka Ursula 1000. There is even a bit of rock steady ska revived in the song "Two Tone Rocka" complete with old school horns and a mean two tone beat. Two other songs worth mentioning are "Electrik Bogie" wear if you closed your eyes you can imagine Prince or whatever sign he is known by now strutting his stuff and singing the song. This particular song has the feel and sound of the CD "1999." One of my absoulutely favorite songs is the heavy on the dance beat "Boop"that once again features Barbara De Dominicis, this time doing some really cool scat that mixes well with the jazzy horns. This is one of those numbers that gets everyone on their feet because of the energy and wacky flavor, you just have to be a part of the song, no passive participation allowed. This disc is all over the map but the common thread is hot rousing fun, danceable grooves that excite with their playful construction. A great disc to play to liven things up for your next get together, at times campy but always entertaining. Recommended and guaranteed to make your friends come to life again. The time is now for "Here Comes Tommorrow."

Kinda Kool.......2007-06-17

A funky, cool modern feel without out sacrificing any of the quality retro sounds that make lounge music the perfect way to end any day. I own all kinds of music -- rock, jazz, lounge, blues and this CD finds its way to the top of my play list a lot.

Kinda Kinky ~ LOVE IT!.......2007-04-03

This CD puts me in the best of moods, no matter what type of day I've had! I love to listen to it on my way home from work to unwind. It's a great background music CD to have at a party too. My friends had never heard of it before, so they were impressed!

cupkate from cali.......2006-10-02

an absolute must have, when the top is down, and you're heading out. Riveria Rondezvous should be played while the martinis are cold!!

Oh, how kinky!.......2006-08-07

I love this stuff. Kinda Kinky is the best track. I heard it on VH1 All Access and loved it, but didn't know who did it. I finally found out today and listened to the samples on iTunes. I love it now. W2G Ursula 1000!!!

Good stuff.......2005-10-17

Great all-around fun party music like all other Ursula.
A little uneven/disjointed, but that's maybe just because I prefer
the long arc of a 70-minute uninterrupted mix.
After Ursadelica and All Systems Go Go, I'd place this one third before The Now Sound. I wrote to Urula BTW and found out there's a new one expected in November.

Shellac is back for another aural attack with 1000 Hurts, a more accessible album than previous fare such as At Action Park. Frontman Steve Albini has never sounded looser or more sarcastic than he does on the one-two opening punch of "Prayer to God" and "Squirrel Song"; the former finds the screechy one singing (!) wails of resignation over a punchy backing, while the latter has him sneering "Don't be surprised if I bust out crying" before indulging in some wicked aggro-arena stylings. Cage-rattling aces Todd Trainer and Bob Weston are given gonzo airlift by the big-room sound Albini loves to champion--it's helium light and lead heavy at the same time. The shorter tracks, such as "Canaveral" and "QRJ," allow for easy-in, easy-out rock fiestas, while longer cuts such as "Watch Song" give the rhythm section a workout. Another fine effort from Albini and company. --Jason Josephes

Weak for their standards, strong for ours.......2007-02-28

Some of their weaker material present here with Albini at his most lyrically jaded and the band generally rumbling along with a dislocated punch. Muted and predictable, the group's once hard-hitting, influential sound had mostly run it's limited range, usually exacerbating their fuzzed out distortion to hide the relatively clean produced and semi-safe sound. Sometimes though, their budding pop personas shine through the cynically detached studio vets mechanical pace, offering a pleasant enough diversion from the sludgy repetition. Thankfully there is enough here done right to justify a purchase from fans, but a lousy and lazy starting point for anyone looking at checking out Shellac. As cruddy as some of it may sound though, (thankfully picking up a bit in the 2nd half) it is still heads and tails above so many newer, "edgier", indie rock acts, simply due to an inherent competence from Albini and company to take any mildly developed musical riff and transform it into a sloppily hypnotic mess, complete with ultra-cynical rants.

Steve Albini is god.......2006-07-20

To the pr*ck who gave this one star, i suggest you go f*ck yourself and never review anything again. everything steve albini has released(when it's one of his bands, not one that he produced, though most of his recording work has been for good bands, with a few exceptions(bush)) is perfect. the one true punk musician that still exists.

6 years and still rocks.......2006-07-17

Everyone's got an opinion. Most people either fall on the side of loving Shellac or hating them because of Albini. Todd Trainer turns in a great series of tracks that really challenge you to listen to what he is doing. Weston is weston and there is very little room for him to shine. But that is what Albini's mastery is - a perfectly balanced album that gives equal weight amongst the band. If you have never picked up any Shellac, I would suggest starting at the beginning and working your way up to 1000 hurts as a means to gain an understanding of how the band has progressed over time.

No the best, but damn close too it........2005-09-27

One of the reviews on this list here gives this album one star? Do you like Steve Albini at all? Why did you bother to review it? Have you heard at Action park? Have you heard Terraform? Ever hear of Big Black? What is the point of challenging everyone else's taste and credibility? This album is excellent, a bit different from Shellac's other releases, but that's the point, different emotions, and feelings go into the production of each album, Steve Albini is one of the only people in music today who makes good choices. Go buy this Record (not CD).

this isn't some kind of metaphor..........2005-08-10

this is entirely in response to the hack review a few (two) down:
This may come as a surprise to a few persons who listen to "underground" music, but some of us listen to music period without the concern for any sort of "indie cred" and, gasp, some of us even listen to music (even Steve Albini's music) and don't even read the reviews on pitchfork! This is definitely, without question, a GOOD, heartfelt (expletive) rock alblum if there exists one. Fear not to buy this record (and if you have a decent record shop nearby, and a turntable, prithee forego the amazon and buy it on vinyl--it comes with the cd anyway), imbibe the pure rock sound and fury, and thank yourself later.

Fun & funkelicious.......2007-05-16

The fact that this is one non-stop groove makes the disc even more enjoyable. The disc has a cool sound, lots of great beatz and psychedelic effects. The music flows from one song into another; the only tip off that a new song is playing is your perception. One of the best songs is "One of These Days" by Kraak and Smaak(love the name) that is Nina Simonesque but in a more subdued manner with a heavy beat and vocals that come and go(echo) as the horns blend into the groove. It's perfect toe tapping , head bopping music to get you into the mood. Many of the tunes have a funky beat, like "Bay, Bay,Bay" which is like Shaft accelerated on steroids. Other songs that have a funky feel but in a slightly different mode is "Nitty Gritty" where the women's vocals sound like they are coming straight out of the 70's, through a pschedelic time warp. Imagine the Shangrilas updated. The set also has Latin flavors like Joe Batan's "Chick a Boom" that is about as funky as it gets. Think Spanish Harlem retooled for a modern dance groove. Other Latin grooves include "Suite Guaracho Pt.2" by Tata Vasquez that is Latin jazz updated with an electronic groove that morphs into a sambaesque beat all the while keeping it funky. Then there is the mambo stylings of "Won't You Join Me for a Drink"? by Lemon that is based on the 50's dance craze, toned down for the electronica cocktail hour. Need a little more Latin vibe? How about "Moustache" by Qythone where the music gets murky in kitchy way that defies logic but surprisingly sounds good. In the end this disc is just a fun listen, nothing serious, just music to listen to while the mushroom cloud appears on the horizon as the land below your feet is slipping into the ocean; it wouldn't matter what is going on because you have been transported to funky dreamland where everything is groovy. Recommended for your cocktail party to get everyone loose.

Not my favorite Ursula 1000 CD.......2007-05-12

I really enjoy Here Comes Tomorrow, and also like Kinda Kinky. Ursadelica has several tracks that seem to repeat the same beat and noise over and over.

You Will Dance!.......2007-01-25

This just knocked something off my Top Ten list. I don't know what yet, but this is an instant classic. How to describe this... hmm... sorta Funky Techno Lounge with some Latin thrown in. The best part is the track I've been searching months for is on here, and I didn't know it until I played the CD. It's from that Intel commercial with the hottie in the purple shirt dancing around. Intel's site says it's called Mr. Dabada, but actually it's called Born to Funk. Yay! I finally have the whole song!

never be depressed again--really!.......2006-02-16

This disc stayed in my cd player for several weeks after I bought it, and still provides me with that kick after many months of listening. I even made copies for all my friends; sadly, the tracks get electronically separated in the process, disrupting the flow of its non-stop funky groove, so buy this one for yourself to fully appreciate its magic. If this don't make your booty moove...

Fantabulous blast of kitschfunk!.......2005-11-27

Ursula 1000 built this mix album with a total DJ/techno ethos, but the music, beats, singing, EVERYTHING is soaked in a kind of Austin Powers-lounge-martini-swinger vibe. Latin percussion, organs, techno flourishes, horns, analog synths, and kickin' beats are pureed into a simmering greasy funk that is just irresistable. No one cool should listen to this kind of music, but if you have any cool in you at all you will be on your feet shaking your thang all over the place!
