Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

5 out of 5 stars Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

5 out of 5 stars Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

5 out of 5 stars Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

    5 out of 5 stars Jackie, Paul, George & Ringo.......2007-01-30

    I was playing frisbee at college when I stopped in my tracks. I thought I could hear Beatles music coming from the next dorm. I was a huge fan, and caught a lot of poop for it, but I believed in the music, or so I said.

    I ran up three flights of stairs, knocked on a door, and a startled student opened it, and I just strode in.

    "It's my room-mate's record - I don't know!"
    But he did say his roommate was a huge Beatles fan, and sure enough, the label was one big Apple. It was Jackie Lomax, and indeed, George had been playing guitar on the track I heard from the street.

    "I've still got it!", I announced to no one in particular. But I did rush out and get IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT? What a great record! This came out around the same time Apple also released JAMES TAYLOR's first solo album.

    Ahh, the good old days!

    This is a secret gem. If you like the Beatles, or Joe Cocker, Jackie will do you just fine. The production is very Apple......

    5 out of 5 stars A great debut.......2006-01-21

    Apple Records was a bold but ultimately failed experiment by the Beatles that managed to introduce some excellent artists to the musical world. Badfinger, Billy Preston, James Taylor, Mary Hopkins and Jackie Lomax all had their debut albums on the label. Lomax's "Is This What You Want" was the best and it's too bad he didn't fair better in his recording career and get the acclaim he deserved.
    The album highlights his unique soulful rock voice on his strong original songs that cover a range of styles from jazz to ballad to soul to rock. The album was expertly produced by George Harrison and he assembled a great backup band that included Eric Clapton, Ringo, Paul McCartney, Klaus Voorman, himself and other solid musicians and singers. There really isn't a bad song on the album but the true classic is the Harrison penned "Sour Milk Sea" featuring a back and forth guitar solo by George and Eric Clapton, a driving beat, and a Beatle-like Get Back fade out.

    5 out of 5 stars A Great Unknown.......2005-09-28

    Jackie Lomax is a great, Beatlesque artist, who for some reason never hit it big. "Sour Milk Sea" is my favorite on the cd, and is written by his pal George Harrison. But the whole album is worth the cost, and is deffinetly recomended.

    5 out of 5 stars A GEM!.......2005-04-30

    Jackie Lomax has been one of my favorite songwriters and recording artists since i picked up his debut Apple lp in the late 60's. A unique voice full of soul and passion along with a "one-of-a-kind" sense of phrasing makes his catalogue stand tall among the best rock records ever/ If their were justice in rock and roll, Lomax would be a Hall of Famer with the recognition and respect that accompany same. As it is, we have the music and he has the admiration of countless fellow musicians and others lucky enough to be in the know. God bless Jackie Lomax

    5 out of 5 stars GREAT album.......2004-09-27

    Evereything's there, but retentive types...hang on to your vinyl. The mix of "New Day" is different from the original US LP and 45 release.

    Very MODERN , like Television's-Marque Moon......Great sound.

    1 out of 5 stars Nonsensical tripe from Lydon and Atkins........2005-06-15

    This is What you want (1983) was a terrible album from John Lydon and Martin Atkins. After an rift between Keith Levene and John Lydon occured during the recording of the demo tracks, Atkins and Lydon ran Keith off and he quit the band. Instead of keeping him on the finished tracks, Atkins and Lydon removed Levene and Pete Jones (the band's studio bassist) from the audio tracks and re-recorded them
    with members from their Holiday Inn band (Lydon hired members from a covers band who performed at a New Jersey Holiday Inn).

    The new tracks and horrible. All of the guitar riffs and rhythm
    section that were originally recorded for the future album were erased. Noise and other unwelcomed sounds were added to the tracks. The original tracks were far superior (even in their basic state) to what was released. To hear them you'll have to find the Commercial Zone LP. The failure of this disc and the bickering between Atkins and Lydon would cause the band to become a solo project for the former anarchy king.

    Not recommended.

    3 out of 5 stars You are now entering an Underrated Zone.......2004-10-23

    Generally regarded as PiL's worst studio album. While this is probably true - it is undeniably patchy - it's far from awful and in fact boasts some great moments ("Bad Life," "Solitaire," "The Order Of Death" - incidentally, the album's title is a lyrical motif recurrent on "Bad Life" and "The Order Of Death"). At the time, "This Is What You Want" was PiL's biggest stylistic shift yet - from edgy avant garde to (edgy) disco funk, re-recorded after the departure of original guitarist Keith Levene (who released his mix of the original album tapes as the semi-legit and largely better-liked "Commercial Zone"). The horn section is only really obtrusive on the horrid remake of "This Is Not A Love Song" (the infinitely superior 1983 single version was PiL's biggest chart hit to date). That and two other numbers - "The Pardon" and "Where Are You" - form a severe lapse in quality that drags the album down. The original PiL sound is aching to emerge from underneath the sinister camp of "Tie Me To The Length Of That" (admittedly, a good track, with Lydon assuming the persona of a traumatised newborn: "When I was born the doctor didn't like me/He grabbed my ankles/Held me like a turkey/Dear mummy/Why'd you let him hit me/This was wrong/I knew you didn't love me"). "1981" serves as an epitaph for the UK-based PiL ("I'm leaving England/We're near the ending/You gave me nothing/No more pretending"). Like "Flowers Of Romance" (which, aside from a couple of tracks, it doesn't at all resemble musically), "This Is What You Want" is unsatisfying overall, but it has enough interesting tracks to weigh out its shortcomings.

    4 out of 5 stars these are not love songs.......2004-09-30

    This is not the death of PiL that many fans are calling it. There are some great songs here. "1981" is cool - great drums, great lyric , reminds me of the Flowers of Romance album, which i love . "Tie me to the Length of That" has a spooky Vincent Price vibe to the lyric and vocal, and a welcome return to a hooky bassline. "The Order of Death", despite being featured in an episode of Miami Vice - uuuugh - is one the best Pil songs ever, its chants of "this is what you want, this is what you get" becoming more and more bitter and sarcastic the more they are repeated. Even the then-current Brit-funk experimentations of "Bad Life" and "This is Not a Love Song" cannot hold them back. They have an undeniable energy, despite their somewhat dated sound. This is, after all, 1983. And a sight better than Kajagoogo or A-ha.

    5 out of 5 stars Best PIL album ever.......2004-08-27

    After the awful Flowers of Romance Public Image releases their masterpiece. This is really just Johnny Lydon solo. The rest of the band all quit during the recordings and our hero plays all the instruments...

    The song "Where are you" is to his missing band mates.

    "This is not a love song" is a wonderful dancy pop song. They hadn't had a hit since "Public Image" and this corrects the problem. The record companies kept telling Johnny to write a love song and he decided not to and it was a top ten hit in England.

    "Bad Life" is another highlight. I heard this song as "Mad Max" on a bootleg live album from 1982. They must have been not allowed to use the original lyrics.

    "This is what you want" was featured on the episode of Miami Vice.

    The inflections of Johnny voice are great throughout the album. There are keyboards and saxophone. All great stuff.

    This is the middle ground PIL. Not as commercial as later stuff not as inaccessible as earlier stuff.

    3 out of 5 stars It's wonderful to have Bernstein back, but the performances fall short.......2006-11-26

    These 1953 mono recordings catch Bernstein a decade after his famous debut with the NY Phil. and five years before he became their youngest-ever condcutor. It's great to hear that warm, comforting voice again, although his analyses--especially the longest one devoted to the Brahms Fourth--aren't as polished as they would become. He gets pedagogical at times and runs us through a rote example-and-explanation formula. Even then, howeer, colorful Bernstein touches peek out, and we are reminded of the man who taught an entire generation to venerate classical music.

    For me, the performances themselves fall short. They were often recorded in a rush, sometimes late at night after a summer concert. I know that the Stadium Sym. is actually the NY Phil., but they don't sound particularly fine, and Bernstein's interpreatations, though vigorous, often border on the slapdash. Plowing through Beethoven's 3rd, Dvorak's 9th, Schumann's 2nd, Brahms' 4th and Tchaikovsky's 6th, I found few sparks of originaity, much less genius. This is a tough admission from one of LB's geat admirers, but there you are. The original recorded sound is also a bit thin and harsh.

    5 out of 5 stars Come back Lennie, we need you.......2006-02-22

    This box is worth its price just for the five talks. Bernstein at this stage had a teaching style rather more stilted than the chatty sage of later years, but the combination of authority, insight and infectious enthusiasm is unique. Entertainingly offhand about the New World, he's at his best on the music he reveres most, i.e. Beethoven, Schumann, and Brahms, the first movement of whose Fourth Symphony gets a particularly in-depth analysis that left me yearning for more. Practically anyone could enjoy and learn from these talks - they're fascinating fun without a whiff of down-dumbing. When the classical and the popular cross over nowadays, the results are usually compromised and crass, but with Bernstein there doesn't even seem to be a gap to be crossed over - just a passion to share these wonders with as many people as possible. We need his all-embracing talent and vision today more than ever.

    Then there are the performances. I'm not the biggest fan of mono symphonic recordings, but these positively leap down your ears, unmannered, committed and electric. It's hard to believe what was achieved under the hasty recording conditions described in the booklet. The sound is a little fierce, but good enough to make this set a wonderful gift for any open-minded but symphonically ignorant acquaintance. I can easily imagine it turning someone on to classical music.

    4 out of 5 stars For Bernstein enthusiasts, it's like owning a gold mine.......2005-06-19

    This new album set is something that I had heard of, but never dared to hope would be released on CD. It consists of Leonard Bernstein's very first recordings of Beethoven's Symphony No. 3 (the "Eroica"), Dvorak's "New World Symphony", Schumann's Symphony No. 2, Brahms' Fourth Symphony, and Tchaikovsky's "Pathetique" Symphony. They are all conducted by Bernstein and played beautifully by an orchestra which bills itself as the New York Stadium Symphony Orchestra, but which is really the great New York Philharmonic, using the name that they gave themselves during summer concerts.

    The performances are a revelation, because they demonstrate conclusively that Bernstein did not always "exaggerate" or "overinterpret" great music, as critics frequently claim. His performances here are very, very direct and straightforward, more like Fritz Reiner or Toscanini than like Bernstein.

    If this album contained only Bernstein's early performances of these symphonies, it would be interesting, but it might not really attract that much attention, since he re-recorded all of these pieces in stereo in later years, and with the same orchestra.

    What makes this set so valuable is that it contains his long out-of-print lectures on these symphonies, and far from what the previous reviewer claims, they never become boring and monotonous. No musician in our time, or maybe even in the history of music, was a better or more articulate and sensitive lecturer on music than Leonard Bernstein. His legendary appearances on the "Young People's Concerts" did more for the appreciation of classical music than all the "Beethoven's Wig" albums combined. (If you don't know what "Beethoven's Wig" is, check it out and shudder at how far music appreciation has fallen since Bernstein's death.)

    Bernstein had a unique ability to make classical music accessible to everybody, without ever condescending to the listener or cheapening the music. His lectures on this album, previously only available to 1950's Book of the Month Subscribers (except for part of the Beethoven lecture, which is the only one that Bernstein did re-record in stereo), are invaluable both to music students and to those who are willing to listen. All of the lectures included cover all four movements of the symphonies discussed, except for the Brahms; that one is just as extensive as the others, but it covers only the first movement of the symphony.

    However--be warned, the lectures do have a flaw that the symphonies themselves do not, and that is why I have subtracted one star.

    The symphony recordings are obviously remastered from magnetic tape, but the lectures have been transferred from LP's. Thus, you will be able to hear an occasional click or pop from time to time, and there is a clearly audible "skip" on the Brahms lecture. It is NOT the CD being defective, or the laser beam on your player skipping; it is clearly the lecture recordings themselves. Deutsche Grammophon, which released this CD set, is very honest about the source of the transfers to compact disc, and is to be commended for this. (They mention it in the last page of the accompanying booklet.) But this shouldn't deter anybody from buying this enormously important Bernstein set.

    4 out of 5 stars Bernstein's Early American Recordings.......2005-04-02

    The most recent batch of DG's "Original Masters" box sets boasts several titles that will leave classical collectors rejoicing, "Leonard Bernstein: The 1953 American Decca Recordings" foremost among them. This 5CD set features Lenny in his earliest recorded performances of some of his trademark works -- Beethoven's 3rd, Dvorak's 9th, Schumann's 2nd, Brahms' 4th and Tchaikovsky's 6th Symphonies. Bernstein would later re-record all of five these symphonies with the NYPO (btw, the Stadium Symphony Orchestra of New York IS the NYPO) to greater acclaim for Columbia, but these early accounts capture a brilliant young conductor at the threshold of greatness. Also after each performance, Bernstein offers a musical analysis, simplifying what the listener just heard as only he could, which is again something the conductor would become famous for in years to come. Well then, if this is such a great set, why the four-star rating? First, while the performances sound very good, these are 1953 mono recordings and the casual fan needs to be aware that analog and digital stereo recordings of these works by the conductor do exist, and are generally preferable. Second, the musical analysis is a nice touch, but certainly does not warrant repeated listenings, as does the music. In fact, nearly half of the contents of these five discs is LB talking, and it could have been filled with music instead, or simply sold as a less expensive 3CD set. However, these shortcomings aside, "Leonard Bernstein: The 1953 American Decca Recordings" is another outstanding release in a fine series.

    5 out of 5 stars The best ever version.......2002-06-07

    The wonderful cast transports you to the realms of Gilbert and Sullivan, to make you feel that you are experiencing a first night in 1881! John Reed, as Bunthorne, an aesthetic poet is superb, camp, subversive and a complete fraud. If anyone is not aware, the story of the opera is based upon the idiosyncracies of the Aesthetic movement in England of the 1880's and Gilbert used the public parodies of his friend Oscar Wilde as his major source. The rest of the cast, chorus and orchestra , under the long experienced 'Goddie' are superlative and make for one of the finest line-ups in D'Oyly Carte history. Revel and enjoy, for this is quite the best.

    5 out of 5 stars The Golden Cast of D'Oyly Carte!.......1999-04-13

    My wish had always been to see John Reed and the D'Oyly Carte Company in a performance of Patience. My mother had done so, remarking that, 'You'd need patience to watch it', she was coloured in her opinion, since she wanted to see 'The Mikado', but had gotten the wrong tickets! The recording, made in 1961, is superb in every detail. You are with the cast, on stage, in the auditorium, it is such a 'live' performance. The dialogue is delivered exquisitely, whilst the singing is uniformerly of the highest standard. I recently portrayed 'Bunthorne' and throughout my performances, I felt that I was continuing the legacy of Gilbert and Sullivan. All the past history of performers were there. I feel that Patience is a magical Savoy Opera. Do not miss the opportunity to own such a definitive performance. Maybe the subject of the 'Art Nouveau' periodof Victorian England is dated, but as one critic has already stated, every generation 'throws up' its poseures, to be knocked. 'Ah, me! lack aday!' BUY IT!

    4 out of 5 stars The Definitive Recording.......1998-12-09

    For those who prefer the traditional Savoyard renderings of the G&S canon, this is far and away the best recording of this parody of the cult of celebrity. John Reed leads the cast as a delightful Bunthorne, and the recording contains all of the opera's dialogue. "HMS Pinafore," "The Mikado," and "The Pirates of Penzance" may be better known, but "Patience" is deserving of a wider audience.

    4 out of 5 stars Excellent ... but ..........2007-02-07

    As a vintage G&S listener, I appreciated this collection but I think it would mostly appeal to the specialist-completeist. A newcomer to the genre would do well to get a full operetta DVD. (I prefer the OK BBC performances to the tarted up & modernised Australian ones.)

    Old-comers probably already have all these tracks as part of their collection of vintage full operetta recordings.

    But don't let my idiosynchratic views deter you if you really like G&S... but not to the extent of buying all the vintage full operetta versions.

    5 out of 5 stars 5 STAR CLASSIC.......2006-05-14

    What you get here is an album by a budding mega star that never connects with the masses. A true mystery of pop music. George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and Eric Clapton all appear here and each and every cut is a standout. This is a 2005 re-release with a cardboard Lp style jacket. Include lyric sheet and bio (bio in Japanese). It is not a new remaster however, but is a great addition to the collection as it has a number of bonus tracks not on the original album. Also available in standard jewel box as a US release. Thankfully Jackie's albums are now on Cd. It's been a long wait for those of us who have been wearing out vinyl all these years.

      5 out of 5 stars Negro Spirituals from a Soprano, Jeanette Thompson.......2006-02-09

      I realy enjoyed this cd. It kinda took me back in the day. Although, I wasnt born during the time of the Negro Spirtituals, my spirit naturally gravitates to the calls of my ancestors. Jeanette Thompson brings a strong energy to the songs on the cd. If you like the Negro Spirituals from back in the day, you will enjoy this cd. If you like the sound of a Soprano, that will be a bonus. Sit back, relax and let your Soul remind you of just how far we have come, since the enslavement of a Afrikan people. Our Faith Is Unshakeable!!!We Are Here To Stay!!
