Lots of musical horsepower from a damn good band........2007-06-30
Ringo will go down in musical history as "The least annoying Beatle". We all sort of thought when the fab four quit that Ringo would end up in one of those "Where are they now?" columes in Rolling Stone magazine. No such deal. He proved to be a hell of a musician, a top rate drummer and knows how to always surround himself with the best in the biz. Paul should take some notes. Such was the case with Goodnight Vienna. I love this album!! A first class turn-it-up-loud and blow the f**kin speaker cones out on the floor recording. Ringo had to work a bit trying to find himself a band after the Beatle split but it didnt take long. Goodnight Vienna is a hot 70's post Beatle rocker that plays well in the 21st century. The title cut is a John Lennon contribution that could only have been a Ringo tune. You'll never hear a rock vocalist with no vibrato, projection and range crank it out like Ringo did on this album.
Goodnight Vienna Ringo Starr.......2007-03-18
Good. If you liked him in the Beatles then you would like him in his own band. Some of the songs are cute. I am a music collector and would recommend this to anyone who liked the 60's and 70's.
MUST-HAVE Ringo.......2006-06-17
This album and "Ringo" are required albums for any music library that is going to have Ringo Starr. All the songs on the album are well-made but if I had to choose my top five favorites, they would be
1. Goodnight Vienna
2. Oo-Wee
3. Only You (And You Alone)
4. Snookeroo
5. Call Me (come on now...its kinda 'groovy')
For anyone who wants the best of Ringo Starr, definitely pick this up along with Ringo and Stop and Smell the Roses.
Very very good.......2004-10-13
It's not quite the Ringo album since there are few masterpiece moments, but the overall quality is very high. Most of the songs are a lot of fun. My favourite song is No No song, it's a perfect piece of catchy pop and utilises Ringo's personality briliantly. It also has a great exotic flavour. Only you is a bit like John Lennon's version of Stand By Me, an uptempo folk song with a pop music feel. Easy for me is a haunting ballad with a classical music feel. I love the reprise of the rocking title track where Ringo shouts out "With gusto boys, with gusto!". Other standouts are All by myself, the title track and the beautiful folk ballad Husbands and WIves that is very touching and wouldn't be out of place on a Bob Dylan album. A great 70's pop music album.
With gusto, boys!.......2004-07-08
This was Ringo's fourth solo album. While not as good as his triumphant third album, it still has it's moments. It pretty much follows the "formula" of his third album, by including some songs Ringo wrote, some songs his friends wrote for him and some cover versions of other people's songs. The big hits were "No No Song" and "Only You". The CD version features three bonus tracks. "Back Off Boogaloo" was a Top Ten hit. The strange "Blindman" was the b-side of "Back Off Boogaloo" and was also the title song to a western Ringo starred in. "Six O'Clock" was originally featured on Ringo's third album. This is the extended version that previously only appeared on promo copies of the third album. It runs over a minute longer than the normal version and you can hear Paul McCartney's backing vocals more clearly on it. Recommended to Ringo's fans.

Although Robert Preston and Barbara Cook put in stellar performances, it's the music that's the star of this hugely successful document of the 1958 Broadway smash. Written entirely by Meredith Willson, it drew from memories of his childhood in a small Midwestern town. Preston plays a traveling salesman/con artist, while Cook is the dull spinster "Marian the Librarian," whose love for Preston's character makes her come alive. "Seventy-Six Trombones" has become a marching band standard, while "Ya Got Trouble" (featuring dizzying fast-talk from Preston) and "'Til There Was You" (with a gorgeous vocal from Cook) remain well known even among those who have never seen the show. The latter was also a favorite of the Beatles, who covered it on their first album. --Dawn Eden
Customer Reviews:
Music Man.......2007-02-09
The original cast recording brings back the memory of the live production I saw which will always be superior, in my opinion, to the movie version. However, the movie was one of the better "reproductions" of this genre.
One of This Country's Finest Musicals Beautifully Re-Mastered.......2006-11-23
THE MUSIC MAN opened on Broadway on December 19, 1957 to rave reviews from the critics, adulations from the captivated audiences, and the beginning of a long run. This wondrous musical is an 'opera' of sorts in that the piece is not a series of songs connected by the usual musical comedy spoken dialogue. Meredith Willson wrote the music and lyrics in such a way that there is not an extraneous note or word that doesn't contribute to the totality of the work.
Despite the multiple reincarnations of this brilliant show both on film and recording, none of them compares to this original cast. Imagine Barbara Cook (lithe, and new) as Marian the Librarian: Cook still reigns as one of our finest voices on the stage and cabaret rooms today. Robert Preston is not only rich in personality he also delivers the immensely complex patter songs with deft authority. And the Buffalo Bills add the multiple barbershop quartet numbers with authentic sound and professionalism.
This musical holds all of the joys and imaginations and longings that we all hold so dear in our memories of how things used to be - and it is so terrific to return to that stage of ecstasy again. This is a must own CD. Grady Harp, November 06
We need a new remaster, nonetheless.......2006-10-22
A very interesting photo on the liner booklet's back cover demonstrates the one real flaw in this otherwise classic recording: it shows Robert Preston at the album sessions singing at two mikes, a fat Neumann with a Capitol flag and a skinny one, probably an AKG. This can only mean Capitol recorded this in simultaneous mono and stereo takes. With all that knob twiddling the balance had to go off, a problem not entirely corrected by the reissue engineer Bob Norberg, whose remasterings of Ol' Blue's Capitol mono output have earned scorn from some Sinatraphiles for their slight fake echo and stereo effects. (He remastered just about every album in the Broadway Angel series; the monos all appear to have the echo and stereo.) I guess we should be happy to have this in any form at all given how the other majors turned it down. Capitol was late and indifferent to the cast album trade, and it only had three hits before making its monumental closing botch of "Follies." However the label approached it it's still a great and exciting score perfectly performed. Who could have imagined a hit musical with a barbershop quartet? And if only all women could sing like Barbara Cook! Who says you can have too much of a good thing?
With the show's fiftieth anniversary coming up (!) now would be a good time for a remaster. (I know, I know, I'm tired of paying repeatedly for the same product too, but this deserves it.) It should include a second disc with the 1959 Capitol documentary LP "And Then I Wrote 'The Music Man'", where Meredith Willson and his wife Rini detail the eight years of trials and rewrites behind the show. Nor would it hurt to have bonuses like Willson's original take on "Till There Was You" (called "Till I Met You," which Fran Warren evidently first sang on "The Big Show") or a few licensed pop balladeers of the day -- and maybe examples like the 70s jingle for the late lamented Oldsmobile ("Oh ho the new Oldsmobile is a -- comin' down the line...."). It must also include Willson's contentious JFK physical fitness tune "Chicken Fat", recorded about the time "The Music Man" was filmed and available only on oddball Web music sites, where Preston yells and grunts himself into an athletic -- passion. (I keep thinking Allan Sherman recorded a full version of his notorious parody "76 Sol Cohens", but I guess he didn't.) The whole thing should end with a live public-radio performance from 1980 or 1981 where Willson led the superb Detroit Concert Band in "76 Trombones" and "The Stars and Stripes Forever" -- an apt and brilliant finish.
No, I have not forgotten the Beatles, but I fear neither have their lawyers.
Accept no substitutes!.......2006-08-22
This the best version of "The Music Man" available, especially if you're looking for the Broadway cast. The performances here are all terrific, the recording and mastering are great, and the liner notes are informative and thorough. "The Music Man" is available in several other versions and forms, including other releases of the same original cast recording, but without the good mastering or liner notes found here. My wife and I, hoping to listen to this great show with our kids, first purchased other versions that were easier to find (e.g., on iTunes) and those were major disappointments. Buy this CD (Broadway Classics from Angel) and accept no substitutes.
Preston and Cook are the best ever.......2006-07-15
Yes, the film is a delight, and Shirley Jones is certainly good as Marian. But the original cast album of this wonderful musical remains the best version ever, mostly thanks to Barbara Cook, whose voice was and remains a miracle of rare device to listen to.
For years I thought I was the only person who was in love with her voice, wearing out vinyl LPs of this musical with replaying. Then, in the early 80s I saw Cook in a one woman show in London, and discovered I was part of a fanatical following! The other reviews here on Amazon confirm the truth: there is only one truly great Marian, Madam Librarian.
Watch the movie, which is a terrific adaptation of the stage show, go to professional and amateur revivals of the musical, but buy this recording of the score for repeated listening. There is nothing better.

A Surpising Pleasure.......2000-06-08
I had only heard "Another You" on the radio and bought the album on this single alone. I was surprised to find how much I enjoyed every track. "Until Then" and "Boys Will Be Boys" show some other versions of David Kersh' warm country sound. A Great CD!
Nice little album :-).......2000-03-21
"Goodnight Sweetheart" "Another You" and "Things Youre Daddy wouldnt want us to do" are the best songs on this album. I the others are forgettable. I cant even think of the words to any others. But the albums biggest flaw is that it doesnt have enough pictures of really cute artist.

Customer Reviews:
Need new music?.......2007-03-11
Like the music but know that this has only three tracks. The CD case itself is a work of art.
"Speeding Cars" is a B-side *why*?.......2007-02-09
The B-side here is currently Imogen's second most popular song on iTunes -- above the A-side, which is third. ("Hide and Seek" is still number one, in case you've been living in a cave and hadn't guessed.) You're going to want both, if not necessarily at this price. "Goodnight and Go" is a terrific single, but "Speeding Cars" is where this artist gets around to demonstrating that she has officially Arrived. May she be with us for many years to come.
Worth it for the B-side.......2006-10-05
"Goodnight & Go" has probably been Immi's most ubiquitous song in the past year, since she has performed it on nearly every media appearance she has made. If you're a fan of hers at all, you've probably got at least one copy of it already.
So the real reason to buy this single is the really wonderful b-side, "Speeding Cars." Piano-driven and with Imogen's voice very up-front and not overly processed, it's one of the best songs to come out of her post- Frou Frou career. This is the most substantial b-side I've ever heard from her, and certainly an equal of the SPEAK FOR YOURSELF album material.
It's impossible to ignore you.......2006-10-02
After the mainstream embrace of her side project Frou Frou, Imogen Heap made a major splash with her second solo album. And one of the most enchanting songs on that album is "Goodnight and Go." But the single not only has a remix of this song, but also a B-side and a music video for the title track -- in other words, a good find for Imogen fans.
The enchanting chorus says it all, about a guy she really wants to be more-than-friends with. "Why'd ya have to be so cute?/It's impossible to ignore you/Must you make me laugh so much?/It's bad enough we get along so well/Say goodnight and go..." Heap sings flirtatiously, before singing earnestly about him dancing naked to music, and wishing that he'd miss his train and have to stay the night.
This version of the title song is the "Immi's Radio Mix," which is a bit dancier and more electronic than the original. After that comes the B-side "Speeding Cars," which is not nearly catchy enough to be a single, but is beautiful enough to stand out: gentle piano melodies, and an admonition to a torn man that "Oh don't lose your head/'Cause none of us were angels."
Then there's a deliciously offbeat music video, with Heap in a red ball dress and a small garden in her hair, with a winding key on her back and a network of Christmas lights overhead. She looks a bit like a mad Kate Beckinsale. Jack-in-the-boxes pop, toys stare, and dummies smirk, giving the impression that Heap is a Pinocchio-like toy that just became... almost human.
Few singers can make such good use of trip-hop or electronic music as the backdrop to a voice. But then, Heap has a beautiful voice -- it's rich, throaty and deeply organic, and you know she'd sound every bit as good live as in a studio. And she's got some brilliant pop lyrics to match those gentle, rippling melodies. ("Glistening in the cold sweat of guilt/I've watched you slowly winding down for years/You can't keep on like this/Now is as bad of time as any...")
The "Goodnight and Go" single is a good buy for Heap's fans, with the remix, the B-side, and the deliciously quirky music video.
Great Service.......2006-08-28
This was a rare CD that I couldn't find anywhere. I was glad to see this seller had it and the CD was brand new in excellent condition. Thanks a lot!! A+

This was our favorite tape. Used it in the car to get the kids to go to sleep. My son would here it and yell, "No NO I don't wanna go to sleep"... right before he fell asleep. We called it our MAGIC tape. Have to be careful though... can put the driver to sleep as well...
Very soothing music!.......2005-06-16
The music on this album is wonderful! We turn this CD on every night for our 3 month old and she drifts right off to sleep. The guitar is very relaxing and the music choosen is a pleasant mix of classical and folk tunes. You will enjoy this CD!

Excellent collection of lullabies from around the world. Beautifully produced. Adults will enjoy this one just as much as the younger set. Listen to this and skip your valium.
Lullabies from around the World to put your kids to sleep.......2002-02-07
I have always had a pet theory that with babies and small animals HOW you say something is always more important than WHAT you say. "The World Sings Goodnight" would certainly seem to put that theory to test as it offers lullabies from 33 different cultures, each sung in its native tongue. This means only a handful are sung in English and that until they are old enough to read the liner notes your little ones are never going to know what these songs are about. This is probably a good thing because there are songs that tell children "to wake you up we'll cut off your ears" and contemplate giving them to a witch or a bad man. My favorite is the lullaby from Egypt where the parent promises to bring the child two pairs of pigeons to eat or two pairs of black beetles to play with, but quickly explains to the animals that this is only being said to the baby so he will sleep.
These lullabies are sung either a capella or with the simple instrumentation of the culture, which can mean anything from end-blown bamboo flute to hurdy-gurdy to goat bells and hammered dulcimer. There is even on song accompanied by crickets. One nice thing about this album is that gender does not matter when it comes to singing a baby to sleep. Males sing the Indonesian lullaby where the mother pleads "Sleep and grow up well, honey, so that you can protect me later, because your father has gone away and forgotten you" and the Ogalia Sioux song where a woman sees the ghost of her dead husband (thus we learn that lullabies do not need to contain the typical lullaby references found in every typical lullaby to be an effective lullaby). There are also several nice examples of lullabies involving sweet harmonies between a pair of singers, including a piece written by producers Tom and Susan Wasinger that is quite lovely. These songs collected from five continents are song by "folk" voices in an effort to have these songs sung by people who have really had to persuade babies and young children to go to sleep. Final Note: I was listening to this CD in the morning and I almost fell asleep, so there is a very good chance it will work on your little ones as well.

Songs that any child would love.......2001-08-30
This album is one of a very few world music compilations that truly spans the globe. The music is delightful, interesting, and relaxing. I listen to it myself quite often, and I would give it as a gift to anyone who has a new baby.
A timeless collection of soothing music!.......2000-08-22
I received this CD as a baby gift for my daughter. She is now 8 years old and still listens to this every night at bedtime. I also enjoy hearing the CD as the sound travels from her room to mine. I highly recommend this CD for any age!

Inspired by 1992's 'Til Their Eyes Shine: The Lullaby Album, an all-female collection of sleepy-time songs for children, Daddies Sing Good Night proves that men are no less tender in nurturing their wee ones. Or at least that's true of these men--including Jesse Winchester, Doc Watson, Peter Rowan, and the late Townes Van Zandt--who wrote the songs for their own offspring, and, in their day jobs, rank among the finest practitioners of folk, country, and bluegrass. In guiding their young charges to dreamworld, these fathers visit exotic lands, lonesome prairies, and even the wide heavens on the gossamer wings of horses. Parental listeners will likely detour into the recesses of their own hearts, in exploring the special bond and soothing strength of fatherhood. --Alanna Nash

A beloved favorite in our household for 3 children (and their parents).......2006-12-14
We've listened to this music through the course of three babies and now three young children, who still select it as one of their favorites for nighttime music. Particular favorites are Tim and Mollie O'Brien's "Hush While The Little Ones Sleep", Michael Doucet's Cajun chanson to his son Ezra, Peter Rowan's haunting "On The Wings Of Horses", and Leon Redbone's typically old-timey "Russian Lullaby". Doc Watson, Townes Van Zandt and dobro genius Jerry Douglas turn in beautiful performances, too. But all the tracks have their own magic. Highly recommended for those who like roots Americana, folk and bluegrass.
Not What I was expecting.......2006-06-18
I was looking forward to giving this to my husband for his first Fathers Day and was expecting sweet mellow lullabies, I had to take it out of CD player after the 3rd song. We were extremely disappointed in this purchase
Lovely for naptime and mellow-time........2006-05-17
I got this from our local library to test it out with my 15-month-old daughter -- my husband is a country & folk music fan, so I thought I'd get it for his benefit. But, after just two days, I returned it and raced to the store to buy it for MY benefit. The only other lullaby CD I've liked so strongly is Putomayo's "Dreamland." "Daddies Sing Goodnight" is a wonderful mix of music, some cowboy-ish, some bluegrass, some just folksy. "Sweet Baby James" is gorgeous, and "Long Timey Ago" always makes me get a little choked up. I'm surprised that one reviewer says the songs/voices are scary, as that hasn't been our experience -- in fact, we find this a great calming, happy CD for mellow times, not just for naptimes. We're getting to know the songs well enough to sing along, which just adds to the pleasure.
scary songs.......2006-02-25
Based on other reviews I picked this cd for my 6 month old for something different than lullabys. Big mistake. The voices are so low and dark that he is scared of it. I use music in the car to calm him since I can't reach him in the back and this music just gets him more upset. Maybe he'll grow into it- for the price I paid I hope so- there are much less expensive collections he just loves.
Great for young and old.......2005-10-06
My mom bought my husband this CD when I was pregnant with our first. It has comforted us through births, car rides, and bedtimes. A great soothing CD.

Gets you pumped!.......2006-01-12
Regardless of the fact that the title song does not garner an artist with the stature of a Paul McCartney, Carley Simon or Nancy Sinatra, it's effect is one of the most upbeat title songs in James Bond history! It really compliments the movie opening segment to a climax that gets you totally pumped up to watch more. Trying to follow up Paul McCartney's Live and Let Die is a tough act for anyone, but this definitely delivers!
ONE OF JOHN BARRYs MOST OVERLOOKED 007 SCORES.......2005-01-24
Back in 1974 many fans wanted John Barry back after his one film hiatus from the Bond series. Barry returned with a score to THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN, Roger Moore's second outing as 007. Track-1: "Main Title: The Man With the Golden Gun" is very good. Lulu has an incredibly strong voice and the song has a certain rock element that was in contradiction to Binder's titles, yet it is very upbeat and sets the tone of the entire film. On this CD it sounds great and has improved with time. A beautiful girl on an isolated beach towels down Scaramanga as he emerges from the water in a surrealistically exotic locale. This sets up Track-2: "Scaramanga's Fun House" where Scaramanga lures gangster Rodney Hood into the funhouse in a duel to the death. This is a great track brimming with Barry's unique sound where the music first reflects the opulence of Scaramanga's domicile and then as they enter the fun house Barry creates a spiraling `stalking theme' mixed with source music from a Western saloon and Chicago Roaring 20s era gangland back alley. This `stalking theme' is central to the Scaramanga character and his deadly profession as the listener immediately associates the music with the character. Track-8: "Hip's Trip" is an excellent example where Barry is able to write suspense music using a repeating dynamic melody that builds in intensity. This is a technique he developed and has mastered ever since the safe-cracking scene in ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE. This technique is probably the most identifiable stylistic trademark in John Barry's music. Track-3: "Chew Me in Grisly Land" is rich in oriental flavor and includes an effective slow paced rendition of "The James Bond Theme." John Barry does here for Roger Moore what he did for Sean Connery and George Lazenby giving them each their own unique musical rendition of "The James Bond Theme." Track-9: "Kung Fu Fight" features a good oriental motif and ends with a very catchy instrumental version of "The Man with the Golden Gun." One of the best cuts on the CD is Track-6: "Goodnight Goodnight" which is a very slow and haunting nocturnal version of "The Man with the Golden Gun." Track-7: "Let's Go Get `Em" is a tour de force of John Barry's new orchestration of "The James Bond Theme" identifiable with his Roger Moore scores. This track has a lot of punch behind it as it melds the very catchy instrumental version of "The Man with the Golden Gun" with a rousing rendition of "The James Bond Theme." Track-10: "In Search of Scaramanga's Island" is a great background composition to Bond's impressive solo flight through the uprooted rock formations near Phuket, Thailand to Scaramanga's island. Track-11: "Return to Scaramanga's Fun House" mixes Nick Nack's theme, the `stalking theme' and elements of "The James Bond Theme" as Bond is now lured into Scaramanga's game of death. This is an excellent climatic piece of scoring. Track-12: "End Title: The Man With the Golden Gun - Reprise" is in the tradition of the YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE album. The last track begins with a beautifully orchestrated version of the main title, which leads into Lulu's strong vocal rendition. I like this CD. It contained quite a bit of music from the film for once, running close to 45 minutes. When EMI reissued THUNDERBALL, YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE, ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE, DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER and LIVE AND LET DIE with extra tracks it was rumored that they had also uncovered the original THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN score as well. Unfortunately, EMI was over their budget for this project and those extra tracks never made it onto the reissue of this soundtrack. Perhaps the length of music already on the album influenced this decision. Of coarse this is just speculation. On the positive side this soundtrack did not spare in its use of "The James Bond Theme" which most fans can't get enough of. My favorite cuts are Track-6: "Goodnight Goodnight" and Track-8: "Hip's Trip." "Goodnight Goodnight" stands its ground alongside Barry's best Bond compositions. "Hip's Trip" even though lightly orchestrated as already mentioned represented a new technique of repeating a dynamic melody that builds in intensity. This is a very interesting and satisfying James Bond album.
Remains a Good John Barry Bond Score to this day.......2004-02-05
This is an interesting album for several reasons. John Barry's music in general seemed to be going through a state of transition around 1974 and this album is a good example of that. Also, THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN was the first James Bond score that Barry composed for Roger Moore as Bond. Moore at this point was trying to define his own interpretation of the character. Moore actually tried to reverse his performance from LIVE AND LET DIE, this time delivering his version of James Bond as a more stoic 007 within a script full of comedic trappings. Added to this director Guy Hamilton wanted an even lighter score than he had previously pressed John Barry into delivering in DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER. Considering all these factors, what we get is probably the most unique score from the James Bond series. Some people were pleased, some were not and some were indifferent. I happen to enjoy this CD quite a bit. It sounds great, having the same technical qualities the DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER album has, and it really contains quite a bit of the background score which you can never get enough of from any James Bond album. I really enjoy the main title that Barry composed for THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN. Lulu's vocal renditions are strong but the really power of this composition is demonstrated in the many instrumental variations that Barry composes using this theme. "Goodnight Goodnight" and "In Search of Scaramanga's Island" are very beautiful sounding tracks. Also, if you like the James Bond theme, Barry composed whole new variations utilizing the power of the orchestra giving the theme a whole new dimension and sound. You can hear these on "Chew Me in Grisly Land" and "Let's Go Get 'Em." All in all I think this is a great sounding album. It is well presented and balanced and is a good representation of the music heard in the film. It was a shame they could not find more music as they did for THUNDERBALL, YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE, OHMSS and DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER. I still like this one just the same.
John Barry's worst entry in the Bond series..........2004-01-19
Maybe it's just me, but I think 'The Man With The Golden Gun' was truly a sign that Barry was getting tired of arranging Bond film scores, especially after coming out with the magnificent 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' and 'Diamonds Are Forever' as his latest contributions prior to this 1974 entry. Perhaps the storyline had much to do with it, but the music here is uninspiring, the theme song not one of my favorites and as others have pointed out, lacking in any extra tracks.
If there is one remastered CD to potentially avoid it is this one, but Barry would make another wonderful effort 5 years later with 'Moonraker'
Haunting score by the magnificent John Barry!.......2003-04-07
The Man With The Golden Gun is not one of the better films in the series. One however, cannot say the same about the music. While it is not considered to be the best work of John Barry, it is still good. The new CD has been remastered, but due to money restrains, no new bonus tracks have been added. The inner booklet has also been spiced up to include a few nice photos. The Man With The Golden Gun was performed by Lulu. It was one of the very few title tracks that didn't chart at all in the US or Britain. True that her voice was a little off and the lyrics are odd, but it is still a fine song. John Barry brought a far east flavor to the music that works very well in the film and on the CD. Scaramanga's Funhouse has the tension slow brass in it as does Return To Scaramanga's Funhouse, which is slightly longer and haunting. These tracks also include the honky-tonk interludes in them. Hip's Trip is a wonderful track that has a dark moody fell to it and works ver well. The Jazz Instrumental The Man With The Golden Gun is a Dixieland honky-tonk blast of crazy music and sounds in a fun rendition of the title song. This track is not featured in the film. My personal favorite and many others on the CD is In Search Of Scaramanga's Island. It is filled with a mysterious fell to it and a far eastern flavor. Very haunting and full of riveting tension. The CD ends with the end-title version of the title song in a much slower tempo. All in all, The Man With The Golden Gun is a good James Bond soundtrack filled with 12 wondeful tracks. A must for all Bond fans!

This Iowan singer-songwriter has the sensibility of an accomplished lyric poet and a muddy, clenching voice that owes more to the country blues than to coffee house folk culture. This was Brown's last album before hooking up with producer and guitarist Bo Ramsey: it's a quiet, tender cycle of reveries for honest love, small towns, rural dreams, and family truths. It's among the best of his early spare, acoustic endeavors, and should inspire listeners to seek out his denser work of the '90s: The Poet Game, Further In and Slant Six Mind. --Roy Francis Kasten

Real Life.......2001-01-09
This cd hits close to home. I grew up in a small Iowa town in the 60's and 70's. We have all heard of those "Speed trap Boogie" towns, I got tickets in them. "Canned Goods" reminds me of sweet corn direct from the fields. We moved out of "Our Little Town" when the tractor plant closed. I have never tired of this cd, all the songs are of real life, growing up in any small town America.
One More Goodnight Kiss is first class.......2000-04-02
This is my favorite work. These songs are moving (I wish I was a painter, & wash my eyes). Some are sweetly nostalgic (canned goods is solid gold). The Cheapest Kind speaks eloquently of family love in hard times. Speed Trap Boogie is an absolute hoot! A true picture of the many small towns that live off their radar guns.
