Producer Monroe Jones gives Ginny Owens plenty of sonic latitude on her sophomore effort, Something More, showcasing the strength of her songwriting. With tasteful touches here and there, Owens lays down a simple yet rich vibe throughout this wonderful release. "I Am" and "Simply Love You" are two tracks that carry a steady yet subtle rhythm, all while allowing Owens's accessible pop voice to bring forth catchy choruses. "This Road" is another example in which less is better, enabling Owens to deliver a moving tribute to the author of her faith. While trying on some rhythm & blues for the title track, Owens gets the soulful message across without sounding trite. Indeed, producer Jones knows how to complement and supplement the music of this gifted artist. And once again, Owens gives us hopeful song-stories that chronicle how God moves in the lives of those around her. --Michael Lyttle

5 out of 5 stars Amazing!!.......2003-08-25

Others have already said this, but it is true: if you are in the midst of a battle? get this CD and then really listen to it. Admittedly, this is not some spunky, hanging around the house CD. This CD will change the direction of your thoughts that day and turn them towards God and how your relationship is with Him. I absolutely love this album. "I Am" is what I first heard and I had to hunt the album down because no one knew who did the song. The rest follows suit. Thought provoking and engaging. You will find yourself singing the songs long after the CD player is turned off. She really grabs you with her lyrics. The music does take a bit getting used to. It's quirky and sometimes unexpected. Still, it all fits together really well and once you get past it? You'll never imagine the song sounding any other way.

This is such an awesome cd. I havent heard her other albums so I cant compare what is better but if they are better than this cd...they are awesome too! I love this cd and "I Am" is my all time favorite song! By far! It has a lot of meanings in it and you can very easily relate this song toyour very own life and that is awesome! I highly recommend this cd...she deserves it!

This is my first, (and only so far!) Ginny Owens Album! Her lyrics caught my attention on Christian Radio! Eventually I found out her name is GINNY not JENNY owens :) I ran to the store to get this album! I absolutely love it! From cover to cover!! One of the few cd's i play all the way through! Ginny is blind, and her references to it in her songs are an amazing testimony to her faith and full reliance on God! She challenges me through these tidbits of truth! :)
ENJOY!

Love Asteria not only a great band/great new sound, great looking too!!! Can't ask for anything better than that! The only problem with this order was that 3 out of the 5 cases I received had broken cases. The CD themselves were fine.

5 out of 5 stars If you like to Have fun then buy this.......2007-03-25

Don't buy this Album if you are boring, because boring people will hate this album because it will make you want bounce off every wall in your room. This album is just plain fun, makes you want to DANCE! DANCE! DANCE! And we all know the boys and the girls go DANCING. Buy this album you will not regret it. Something for everyone except boring people.

2 out of 5 stars You've heard it before............2007-03-10

I'll make this quick....Asteria's "Slip into Something More Comfortable" is a nice effort by these NW Indiana guys but the problem is, its nothing that hasnt been done to death a million times already and alot better I may add. If your looking for something thats gonna be groundbreaking, move on.

Considering the average age in this band, the musicianship isnt bad. They do however show their age with the easy-cheez filled lyrics. As bad as that description is, the lyrics are worse.

Like I've said, their young kids so things could change but as of right now, I advise you to save your money and look in something else.

Album Description

'O Come Emmanuel' includes many of your traditional Christmas favorites in new and interesting arrangements. Through his music, David captures both the emotion and magnitude of the events surrounding the birth of Jesus Christ. From the haunting 'Silent Night' to David's rousing rendition of 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,' you'll find this Christmas album a unique and enjoyable addition to your collection.

A Comment from the Artist...

"With 'O Come Emmanuel,' I've done my best to create a Christmas album a bit different than anything you've heard before. I realize there are a million Christmas CDs out there. That's one of the reasons I resisted the idea of doing a Christmas album for so long. I mean, do we really need another solo piano Christmas CD?

But one of my friends challenged me on this idea. 'Consider it an opportunity, David. Rather than thinking of it as 'just another Christmas album', think of it as music written to express the emotion of the Christmas story. Take these songs people have loved for years and wrap them around your piano style. People love your piano music, and they love Christmas music. So, put the two together. Just create a Christmas album you yourself would like.'

These words gnawed at me, and I began thinking about how I could use my music to tell the story of the birth of Jesus. And so, I started working on it, playing around with some of the popular (and more traditional) Christmas melodies and began adapting them into my personal style. Now I'm ready to pass the CD on to you. It's most definitely not your 'typical' Christmas album, but for that very reason I think you'll find it refreshing. Of all my CDs, I can easily say that 'O Come Emmanuel' is the album that I'm most proud of."

5 out of 5 stars from Solo Piano Publications.......2003-06-17

Being a piano teacher who starts students on Christmas music in early-November in preparation for the winter recital, I'm not always very receptive to reviewing Christmas albums much past Thanksgiving, but David Nevue's "O Come Emmanuel" is truly exceptional. David's retelling of the Christmas story with his solo piano arrangements and interpretations is deeply personal as well as spiritual and inspirational. The fourteen selections include two originals, and all are of a religious nature. David Nevue has a wonderful way of taking a simple melody line and making it full of meaning. His elegant playing style is never overly showy, preferring a direct and honest approach, which takes a lot more skill and heart than pure showmanship takes. Nevue set out to create a Christmas album that was truly something different, and succeeded well.

The CD opens and closes with hauntingly beautiful arrangements of the title song, rich in its dark minor key moodiness. "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel" is one of the oldest Christmas carols still sung today, but in capable hands such as Nevue's the song is both ancient and contemporary, full of deep emotion that is ageless. "Away in A Manger" is a song that is often the first Christmas song learned in Sunday School, and Nevue introduces his lovely version with a one-hand melody line, emphasizing the children's view of this sweet song. He then brings in some of the other melodies (there are at least 40 melodies that go with this song!) that are often used, making each verse a little different. "Watching Their Flocks" is one of the two original pieces, and is quietly introspective, possibly suggesting the peaceful solitude of shepherds tending to their flocks late into the night - very beautiful. "Joy to the World" opens with a long, improvisational intro and then comes into the song itself at the chorus - a very interesting and effective approach. "Silent Night" is pure peacefulness. "Coventry Carol" is one of my favorites. Nevue again opens the piece with a long prelude that is mysterious and dark, and his interpretation of the piece itself is emotionally charged - a wonderful arrangement. "The Gift" is the second original piece, and it is also a real beauty in its simple honesty and gentle message. "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" is the most upbeat piece in the collection, with a jazzy treatment - starting out slowly with a rubato rhythm, and evolving into several variations. Great stuff! "O Come Emmanuel" is one of my favorite Christmas albums now, and I highly recommend it!

    5 out of 5 stars Smart tunes, great playing, Wayne 'n' Herbie . . ........2004-03-13

    . . . What more could you want? This late eighties classic session on the German label In & Out (who also brought us the great and largely unheard band Roots) features Herbie Hancock (piano and keyboards), Wayne Shorter (soprano and tenor sax), Al Foster (drums), and the brilliant (and largely unknown) Japanese trumpeter Shunzo Ohno. With leader Buster Williams, who has played with Miles Davis, Dexter Gordon, Sonny Rollins, Art Blakey, Freddie Hubbard, Chet Baker, Woody Shaw, and McCoy Tyner, this is a killer band. Somehow, this disc has flown almost completely under the radar. And that's a shame, given the level of playing consistently on display.

    The first thing one notices is that Ohno easily hangs with such top drawer jazz talent. He constantly solos with invention and conviction, his tone is dark, thick, and mysterious, and his conception definitely comes out of Woody Shaw. Shorter also is in fine form. Dividing his time about equally between soprano and tenor (and, personally, I'm thrilled to hear him devoting so much space to the latter), he shows that he has always been as brilliant a player as composer. He tenor tone--rich, meaty, hortatory--is unique in jazz.

    One wonders why such glorious music has languished almost unheard. The reasons are probably pretty ready to hand. First, the packaging is atrocious. The typography is virtually illegible, the band members' names almost unreadable. Second, this label has never received proper distribution stateside. I believe I picked it up at Chicago's Jazz Record Mart, one of the most complete jazz stores in the country. Third, the late eighties were almost a dead zone for jazz.

    What ought to happen is that some smart label like Evidence get the rights to this disc, repackage it, and heavily promote it. But as that probably isn't in the cards, the next best thing is for everyone who reads this review (all three of you) to snatch this baby up pronto. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

      It is about time that this wonderful underground band hits the mainstream and gets the recognition that they deserve...James T Farris' vocals are unparalleled by anyone else in the punk scene today, along with Justin Warren, Jody Waymire, and Roger Hinshaw they come together to make up the perfect cuting edge punk sound...Don't miss out on this CD, if you do you'll want to die...Who would have thought you'd find punk in Ephrata???

      I took a chance and bought this album. What a welcome suprise! Don't let the cover fool you, this is a collection of outstanding and heartfelt jazz. From upbeat New Orleans style, to the soulful strains of the blues, this is a full plate of clarinet-led quartet gold. What a tone! What a glissado!
      What music!
      I'm not an audiophile, so I won't discuss the technical merits of this album, but it sounds great to me!

      A revue created for the Whitney Museum's Composers' Showcase series (and sometimes known as You're Gonna Love Tomorrow), A Stephen Sondheim Evening collects songs with music and lyrics by Sondheim in a live 1983 concert featuring a top cast of Liz Callaway, Cris Groenendaal, Bob Gunton, George Hearn, Steven Jacob, Judy Kaye, and A Little Night Music's Victoria Mallory, with a special appearance by Angela Lansbury. While many of the songs were somewhat obscure at the time, they're rather familiar decades later, including selections from 1954's Saturday Night and outtakes from A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. And though the Fender Rhodes sounds dated, the cast and the performances are excellent. Callaway's "What More Do I Need" is still definitive, and Sondheim himself accompanies Lansbury's "Send in the Clowns" and leads the singers on "Old Friends." --David Horiuchi

      4 out of 5 stars By no means bad!!!.......2005-01-04

      I like this Sondheim Revue. The performers are good, and I appreciate that they don't try to be "clever" with Sondheim's music. They just performs it as it is written.

      The orchestrations are...well...slim. But the synths aren't disturbing, except in Miles Gloriosus.

      Otherwise some rare SJS gems are included here. And Angela Lansbury's Clowns is one of the few versions of this song worth listening to (it's not a bad song, but done so many times:P).

      3 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware!!.......2004-05-28

      This is one of the better Sondheim tributes, but because RCA cut out 2 numbers from the original 2 lp set to fit on one disc, I can only give this 3 stars. I owned the original lp set, and wasnt aware of this omission until after I bought the cd. One of the best songs on the original, You're Gonna Love Tomorrow/Love Will See Us Through with Liz Callaway (among others) from Follies was cut. Inexcusable! There were several other lesser songs they could've cut instead if time was a problem. (Poems and There's Something About a War being two of them) In small print in the booklet it says the 2 cut songs are available on Collected Sondheim. Yeah, like I want to shell out 50 bucks to get those 2 songs when I have everything else on that compilation? If you havent heard the original set, you'll probably love this recording and there is a lot to love, including Angela Lansbury singing Send In the Clowns with Sondheim on the piano. But if you have heard the original LPs, Buyer Beware! Shame on you, RCA!!!

      3 out of 5 stars Atrocious! Dont be fooled!.......2000-04-29

      This recording is really realllllllllly bad. The songs are terrific, of course, although the selection seems rahter arbitrary. And it is terrific to have a recording of lost gems like House of Marcus Lycus and Invocation. But otherr than that, this CD just stinks! The arrangements were scaled down to a piano (which really seems like its being piped in from a different concert hall) and a wince-inducing synthesizer. The voices are uniformly distant and tinny, the result - i assume - of poor mic placement. And WHO is this Stephen Jacob person, and how did he get it into his head that he's a singer? Every time he opens his mouth - I kid you not - I shudder. I was kind on this CD - I give it 3 stars only because it has some great songs on it, and Judy Kaye's Another Hundred People is very very good. But other than that, this is worthless.

      5 out of 5 stars A wonderful recording of some great Sondheim.......2000-04-13

      I was at this concert, and this recording captures the excitement that the performers generated that night. A lot of Sondheim's best songs, and a generally strong group of singers. It's unfortunate that the CD release is missing two of the numbers that were performed that evening (and were included on the original LP release). Judy Kaye's "Being Alive" is a particularly glorious highlight of this CD.

      5 out of 5 stars I just wish I'd been there!.......1999-09-09

      Live performances are tricky to record, and the result is often not nearly as satisfying as attendance at the event itself. This album, though, is different. "Brilliant" about sums it up. Besides including numbers that had been part of recorded scores before, it includes some that were cut from various musicals, or were never produced at all. Not only is Bob Gunton's performance of "Pretty Little Picture" far better than that on the original "Forum" cast album, it is, I think, done more in the fashion Sondheim intended. And two of the "cut" "Forum" numbers are delicious: "In the House of Marcus Lycus" is delightfully sly and filled with double-entendre, and George Hearn revels in the witty lyrics; and "There's Something About A War" is screamingly funny, especially at the point the soldiers lose control gloating about "houses to destroy --Hey! women to enjoy-- hey! statues to deface - hey! - mothers to debase - hey!...". Even the wonderful scoring for small ensemble works perfectly. (In "Something about a war" the fanfare, in the original cast album scored for brass, is performed by a synthesizer, and sounds wonderfully satirical, reminding one of Marvin Martian from the Warner Brothers cartoons.) The numbers from the (at the time) unproduced "Saturday Night" are great, especially Victoria Mallory's ecstatic "What More Do I Need?". The rendition of the moving "Someone In A Tree" is indeed, as others have pointed out, far better than on the "Pacific Overtures" album. And as a final pair of jewels we are treated to Angela Lansbury singing "Send In the Clowns", accompied by Sondheim himself, and then Sondheim and company singing "Old Friends" I could go on and on, but you get the picture. NOW, get the CD!

      4 out of 5 stars A bargain collection of showtunes.......2005-08-19

      This bargain collection of showtunes is highlighted by the composition of Kurt Weill and the uniquely rolling tongue of Colette Lyons. I have a complaint about this compilation. It includes "Ol' Man River", but it excludes Al Jolson's rendition of "Ol' Man River." Otherwise, this collection gives you ample bang for your buck.
