Customer Reviews


It is also worth the money. I used to listen, as Annie Lennox, I went to school in London. I had a stroke and sometimes dancing, singing their way home, and that was with a cassette walkman. I will never forget how their music impressed me so much. It 'still the same mark today. Annie is in a class of them. And even if I thought that she and her partner in Eurythmics were in the 80s, I still sing: "Here comes the rain again strange ..." with the same passion and enthusiasm of the time. Thisis a phenomenal piece of jewelry to have in your collection.

I was looking for a Coonoor Joanna (my favorite female guitar) CD, as I have an almost new version of Joanne Shaw Taylor, I received a bit curiuos' from the cover when I heard that I realized that it was a CD excellent debut. This young woman is an accomplished guitarist and composer.
It has style, originality and a great capacity for guitar, because I like this CD?, There are at least 6 songs that are in my preferred style of modern electric blues, guitar solos really excellentand give me a taste of SRV interpretations, it is clear that the main influence in her life Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimi Hendrix, if all the titles that will see you thar lick feel the same style of SRV and Jimi.
His English and play a sort of Texas blues is this girl a great victory for the blues. This CD is worth its price and a great future in Serbian Joanne.

OK Computer Specifications


Radiohead's third album got compared to Pink Floyd a lot when it came out, and its slow drama and conceptual sweep certainly put it in that category. OK Computer, though, is a complicated and difficult record: an album about the way machines dehumanize people that's almost entirely un-electronic; an album by a British "new wave of new wave" band that rejects speed and hooks in favor of languorous texture and morose details; a sad and humanist record whose central moment is Thom Yorke crooning "We hope that you choke." Sluggish, understated, and hard to get a grip on, OK Computer takes a few listens to appreciate, but its entirety means more than any one song. --Douglas Wolk

Customer Reviews


A friend told me that if Radiohead The Bends was their revolvers, then click "OK Computer is the time their Sgt Pepper's. I tend to disagree with your analogy, what I like" The Bends ", the amazing range of emotional" OK Computer "completely surprised me when I first heard in 1997. It 'was when I was a couple of friends to record companies, and a dear lady at the Capitol (hello Leslie M, wherever you are today) I have a three song sampler that becausethey new how much I like Radiohead.

The sampler includes "Karma Police", "Paranoid Android" and "No Surprises". Before joining the CD, I was telling people this, that this is the most incredible thing I'd heard all year. Until the full CD in my player for a couple of weeks ago I was thinking it was the best album of the year. Thom Yorke had the modern themes of alienation, he studied so ably on "gangs" and are matched with the music that has slowed down and weakenedhaunting textures and electronics. Guitarist Johnny Greenwood are almost nonexistent, unless sudden relegated to "campaign." In most cases, is the voice of York, who is the main instrument, weaving in and out of the songs is a breath ( "Exit Music For A Film") or his scream rock ( "Lucky").

Even more important, "OK Computer" is an album that (like "Sgt Pepper") collects the songs that invoke the theme together. While "Karma Police" and "No Surprises" aresomething like braces radio airplay, this is listening to a CD, which works as a whole. I know there is a general consensus that this is a concept album - you can see how many plane crashes, wrecked cars and machinery to be mentioned - is still due, that I have, which usually dour lyrically Yorke. Was in my ears, the concept comes with the post-Pink Floyd meets the speed of sound quilting for the modern age. OK Computer, Radiohead have managed to more than anyone before or since.

Billy Joel - Greatest Hits Vol. 3









Customer Reviews


Billy Joel's Greatest Hits, Volume 3 completes the collection of his songs bigger and better. Naturally, Billy Joel will be a comprehensive library containing more than this CD, Volume 1 and 2, but we do much for your money, with the third album with the results.

"Keeping the Faith" is a fantastic, funky beat with this percussion Billy sings very strong. "A Matter of Trust" is more of a true rock and roll songs with a side of pop, Billy sings this brilliantly, without asuperfluous note. This song about the importance of trust in a love story hits home for me and many other people I have talked about this song. Also, "Baby Grand" is a breathtaking duet of Billy the team has worked with the immortal Ray Charles. Who sing and play their two-piano sound, and the most important changes through the make of this song, a ballad extraordinarily beautiful.

"We Did not Start The Fire" to think "hard rock like Billy about how the world has always been engaged with the good and singsterrible events, the "fire" represents historical events great and terrible. "I Go To Extremes" features Billy rocking out loud as she sings, this is the impressive number of manic-depressive. The rocks and Billy Joel tune never sounded better!

"Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)" is a delicate piece that struck me very much, and "Hey Girl" is another faultless performance with a soul / R & B approach, by Billy Joel. The album ends well with "Light As The Breeze," Billy sings with thisSensitivity and momentum.

The liner notes are the text and the graphics are very well done.

Fans of Billy Joel will be the album. This CD is also good for a casual fan Billy Joel, who is not, every single Billy Joel CDs Purchase outdoor use. However, as some other reviewers have noted, some songs are all three of the album "Greatest Hits Billy Joel's". For example, where is "Modern Woman?" Where's "honesty?" What about "Sometimes aFantasy? "However, the third" Greatest Hits "album by Billy Joel is so strong by itself, I will give it five stars anyway.

A complete collection that the three "Greatest Hits" albums have been the CD titled "Billy Joel: Complete Hits Collection."

Let It Bleed







Let It Bleed Overview


Rolling Stones Photos



Let It Bleed Specifications


One of the Stones' most beloved albums, 1969's Let It Bleed was a benchmark for several reasons. First, founding guitarist Brian Jones died during the recording process. Second, the Stones take their last significant look at pure blues (Robert Johnson's spooky "Love in Vain") and country ("Country Honk," the two-stepping alter ego of "Honky-Tonk Women") before folding both styles into a cohesive rock & roll vision. Third, it contains some of the band's most eerie hits, such as the flame-enveloped "Gimme Shelter," the drug-reality anthem "Monkey Man," the epic "You Can't Always Get What You Want," and Mick Jagger's menacing "Midnight Rambler." --Steve Knopper

Customer Reviews


Hey, in 2009 no one, including this reviewer, must be based on the fact that the Rolling Stones, pound for pound, more than forty years plus comment deserves its place as number one band in rock 'n' roll Pantheon. However, it is interesting to hear more about the boys, when at the peak of their musical forces were (and are so high, most of the time when Georgia) pines. This album of their most creative period 1964-1971 also, unlike, for example, Bob Dylan, who has producedmore creative work longer, the golden age "of the Stone Age. While this CD is a bunch of" greatest hits "from this moment and there are no really bad tracks here, the stock outs" Gimme Shelter "( as always), the title track "Let It Bleed," "Midnight Rambler" and "You Can not Always Get What You Want." It is not that the truth about the last.

Fleetwood Mac (Deluxe Edition)







Fleetwood Mac (Deluxe Edition) Overview


No Description Available.
Genre: Popular Music
Media Format: Compact Disk
Rating:
Release Date: 23-MAR-2004

Fleetwood Mac (Deluxe Edition) Specifications


Given their monumental legacy, it's hard to imagine that the so-called "classic edition" of Fleetwood Mac essentially came together casually over chips and margaritas at an L.A. eatery; the then-obscure duo of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks (whose own mid-'70s debut album had initially gone almost straight to the cut-out bins) became the crucial axis of the legendary band without so much as a formal audition. As the eponymous title suggests, the 1975 Mac realignment seems like a fresh start, though tracks like Christine McVie's smooth-jazz inflected "Warm Ways" hearken back to the Bob Welch/Bare Trees/Heroes Are Hard to Find era. But it's Buckingham's compelling, updated take on '60s California folk-pop, informed by the mystique of Nicks's proto-New Age song-sorceress presumptions, that breathed new life into the veteran, chameleonic band on now-familiar songs like "Monday Morning" and "Rhiannon." His chemistry with McVie is no less powerful, yielding such Mac staples as their collaboration "World Turning" and suffusing her "Over My Head" with nervous, insistent guitar rhythms. This deluxe, remastered edition features the significantly different single mixes of "Say You Love Me," "Rhiannon," "Over My Head," and "Blue Letter" (the latter previously unissued), as well as the moody, also unreleased studio workout "Jam #2." Parke Puterbaugh's newly penned liner notes offer concise, thoughtful insights into the genesis of one of rock's greatest, if most unlikely, rebirths. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews


Previously there were rumors of unknown Fleetwood Mac its re-debut, displayed, published their new found pop-style, in contrast with the blues-rock of Fleetwood Mac-Peter Green LED. Although not classic, the album Smash, voices, this album stands on its own, really. There is almost a relic of the evolution of the sound of voices, was created as a prototype low-cost, is just the music bigger, different enough to stand on its own power of voices are not heard (I prefer your music more veryI did the voices, not because of style, is simply a matter of preference).

In addition to very bland and boring Crystal, your eyes on ten great songs here are not bad songs, but it is just pop music great. As the voices resounding success, one can say the different styles of each. As usual, writes McVie optimistic, a little 'melancholic pop songs, and she always sings in that beautiful voice he has. When you slow to warm Ways and Over My Head, is just as breathtakingE 'in songs like "Say You Love Me Stevie Nicks, are in fact their best to bring their contribution however little it amazing songs. Buckingham is the master of making those bouncy pop songs, and with this album there is the fantastic to the end of the album I'm So Afraid. Even if the topic was of Buckingham, who plays some of his solos here bluesly licks passionate, sensual, hot, I agree with people who say that his game is underestimated (the same forJohn playing bass).

Monday morning, the album feels like a hand Monday, and there will say that even if it breaks with the previous Warm Ways beautiful morning, then it is broken up disappointed with the emotional Bluesletter. Stevie Nicks gets her first emitter Rhiannon (a figure) from a novel and sings with the voice immortal witch who got into trouble. McVie will be two songs in a row, the beautiful, light, Soaring Over My Head, which gives an auraa carnival night (probably at least for me, through the Ferris wheel dish or other), and poppies, the song evoked the album say that I love.

While it may be a common place name, is probably best composition Landslide Nicks'. The song immortal, immortal, organic sparkling insight, is a masterpiece, especially for an acoustic song. Turning World offers some of the best game of Buckingham. scaling some of the tastiest blues licks, like a Jimmy Pagebut less sexual and bombast, then goes into a throbbing, button beats that make you move. Dissolves into a sort of mediocrity during the last part, but the first part is not to fog. McVie gets her last song, the poppy Sugar Daddy with soulful organ and piano. Sure, the lyrics are pretty pedestrian, but given the problems that the marriage was going through it, it is logical that they want a "Sugar Daddy". It's a great song, really.

But, perhaps, save thebe the best for last. I do not know exactly why I have so much benefit from this music, I fear, but it's like a damn good song. Sponsored by tom-tom, beating and shimmering organ evokes a mood of melancholy, as Buckingham sings in the desert, at sunset in the distance, it appears that the desire to give, and with absolutely tearing guitar solos from Buckingham, is discovers that a very close relationship, and contact with the gong great! Good way to bring this to the back of an albumHome!

One is tempted to Fleetwood Mac with the rest of _______, label AOR forget that when he disappeared from the face of the earth, I would give a _____ (Boston, Journey, Peter Frampton, The Eagles, Styx, Foreigner, etc..), But Whereas these guys still sound incredibly fresh today, they deserve a higher status.

Lines, Vines and Trying Times







Lines, Vines and Trying Times Overview


Lines, Vines and Trying Times showcases an incredible musical journey by the Jonas Brothers, as well as their growth as songwriters and musicians. They've incorporated horns into several songs, as well as harmonicas and peddle steel guitars. The first single, "Paranoid," is a guitar driven dance evoking song, and the entire CD is a veritable smorgasbord of pop and rock gems. "World War III" is a funk metaphor for a confrontational relationship. Written by Nick Jonas, he asserts, "This is a personal experience for me. `World War III' deals with the challenge of a girl who keeps attacking you, provoking you, trying to fight you, but all the while she's the only one fighting." "Fly With Me" which is also the end title credit for the upcoming "Night At The Museum 2" film (due in theaters May 22), was written by Jonas Brothers and their bass player Greg Garbowsky, and is sure to become a love song for the ages. On "Poison Ivy" Jonas Brothers added a horn section. In their summer music preview issue, Rolling Stone described the ultracatchy "Poison Ivy" as a "Weezer-ish tune about a toxic girl that you can't resist." "Hey Baby" is a classic "she done him wrong" song written entirely by Jonas Brothers. "We wrote this song for the last record while on the road and felt the old school sound was more cohesive with our present style," explains Nick Jonas.

With all these themes, it's easy to see how Jonas Brothers came up with the title Lines, Vines and Trying Times. Says Joe Jonas, "Lines are the "proverbial" lines people will feed you, and vines are obstacles that get in your way." Adds Kevin Jonas, "Trying Times can be relationships, or anything personal to you. No one is alone in that; we all go through it."


Customer Reviews


I am a recent Jonas Brothers fan. I bought this CD after having made a friend for me. I honestly do not think I would have liked the way I think the Jonas Brothers were just teeny-boppers (do not know how teeny-bopper music!). Wow I was surprised how great this CD. I was impressed immediately with the first track, which in my opinion one of the best songs I've ever heard. This album is in its text, music, mature and healthy and I can see how the group could alienate their youngerFans who want their music less important and chewing gum. I hope to listen to people who are not fans of the first Jonas Brothers CD and damage that will be a recent convert like me.

Revolver (Remastered) Specifications


Revolver wouldn't remain the Beatles' most ambitious LP for long, but many fans--including this one--remember it as their best. An object lesson in fitting great songwriting into experimental production and genre play, this is also a record whose influence extends far beyond mere they-was-the-greatest cheerleading. Putting McCartney's more traditionally melodic "Here, There and Everywhere" and "For No One" alongside Lennon's direct-hit sneering ("Dr. Robert") and dreamscapes ("I'm Only Sleeping," "Tomorrow Never Knows") and Harrison's peaking wit ("Taxman") was as conceptually brilliant as anything Sgt. Pepper attempted, and more subtly fulfilling. A must. --Rickey Wright

Customer Reviews


The Beatles '1966 album "Revolver" is revolutionary. It is revolutionary. It' an album that we've never seen anything like it before or after. Every positive adjective to describe the "Revolver." It's otherworldly. But I just play "adjective game," we want to be held for review.

We return to 1966. The Beatles have just recently released "Rubber Soul" (the previous year, and 1965), which will result from critics as their best record mature. Also released this year"Help!" A soundtrack for the film, which also showed (in my honest opinion, anyway), since the Fab Four up to a year.

But by the time '66 rolled around, the Beatles were a full-fledged band. Have always been more of a "beat group from Liverpool." Well, I have always been willing to change, and experimental music forever. And that is still friendly.

"Revolver" was released in 1966 there were two different tracks directory. The American version had 11 tracks(three of them had appeared on previous studio albums of the Beatles 'Yesterday' ... and now, "a Beatles record many collectors is extremely rare - but that's another story), and the English version, the 14 songs had.

When Parlophone / Capitol were rereleasing The Beatles catalog on CD in 1990, the English edition was published on CD, and so intelligent.

"Taxman," George Harrison shows his angriest. And 'one of the best anti-tax songs you'll ever findif not the best. Harrison's voice is due, and is certainly much, since the guide is due! " Album. What is open for a great way for this brilliant masterpiece.

"Eleanor Rigby" is one of the most famous and memorable songs of the Beatles now. A shot # 1 for the Fab Four's song Paul McCartney will be accompanied by a string quartet. This is not the only time he sang with a quartet, accompanied his 1965 # 1 hit "Yesterday" also included a string quartet. ATons of people within these classics, including Ray Charles.

Other songs like 'Love You To "(perhaps first exploration of the Beatles' music of India, and certainly not the last)," Good Day Sunshine, "" Doctor Robert "," She Said She Said "and, of course, # 1 - Hit 'Yellow Submarine', all have shown how quickly the boys grew.

Perhaps my personal favorite Beatles song is the album are "For No One". Personally I always thought this would be areally perfect for the band's previous albums, "Rubber Soul". Right between "that of yourself" and "Word". If it was only written in 1965 (sigh) ... But register here fits very well, and has always been one of my favorites.

But perhaps technically the best song of the album is the last song. "Tomorrow Never Knows" gave listeners a great taster of what was to happen. In fact, it is a perfect taste of things. Turn of your mind, relax and float downstream ... "wrote one of the best lines in the history of psychedelic rock, bar none. When you hear, you can hear traces of what the band who are still exploring further with their upcoming album "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band".

And that is part of the charm of "Revolver". The visit of the Beatles with lots of different styles here. Folk-rock ( "I'm Only Sleeping"), baroque pop-rock ( "Eleanor Rigby"), psychedelic rock ( "Tomorrow Never Knows") and blues-rock ( "Got to Get You IntoMy Life '), among others. I am quite convinced that the Beatles have more opportunities to 'Revolver,' Another album, including "Sgt Pepper." It's just so experimental.

Overall, you do not have a rock and roll collection, to "Revolver". It 'a fact. This is one of the best moments, has not touched the Beatles and probably a thousand stars (five stars, like me) feel about this album. You must have 'Revolver' in your record collection, whether that are large or small. ItShould not be a crime.

Very, very, very, very recommendable for those who appreciate good music, regardless of gender.

ENJOY!

Pieces







Pieces Overview


After recording his second solo album, Stills formed Manassas in 1971 with a talented group of musicians that included Chris Hillman, a former member of the Byrds and Flying Burrito Brothers. Manassas released two albums, 1972's eponymous double-album debut and the 1973 follow-up, Down The Road. MANASSAS - PIECES features alternate versions of two songs from Down The Road: 'Do You Remember The Americans' and 'Lies' (featuring guitarist Joe Walsh). The collection also includes the legendary group's unreleased performances of 'Sugar Babe' and 'Word Game,' a pair of songs Stills recorded in 1971 for his second solo album. The remaining tracks include 'Like A Fox,' a song recorded with blues guitarist Bonnie Raitt on background vocals and the Latin-tinged 'Tan Sola Y Triste' (Spanish for 'So Alone and Sad').


Customer Reviews


Not too much for the comments from guests' add, but here are some thoughts that I hope can add some value to potential buyers. This CD is an eclectic mix of, well, "Pieces", performed by Stephen Stills and Manassas. Although it is understandable how this collection could only be subsequently released, stands the test of time and is worth listening to Stephen Stills Fans. Some of the best songs seemed to be saved for future versions, especially "My Love is aGentle Thing '(for the unlucky in 1974 CSNY "Human Highway" album was designed) and "Love and satisfy (Souther-Hillman-Furay)." My love is a sweet Thing "sounds almost identical to me the other CSN Box and perhaps it is. Are re-recordings of previously released (" Sugar Babe "," Word Game "), or in the near future, at that time ( "Do You Remember the Americans liberated" and "Lies") songs. Others are very original ( "Witching Hour"), or covers, we have not heard.

TheMusicality of the band is simply superior, and for those who appreciate high-quality 2-channel recordings, the sound quality is excellent. Folks, these are real musicians making real music. This is not digitally synthesized on the treated waste.

What for me on many of the songs drums Dallas Taylor, the very choice of many of the most rocks in the foreground. A series of hard-core bluegrass cuts are included with violin and mandolin (by Chris Hillman, thePro's Pro, of course) at the end of the CD. Finally, Stephen is singing gritty, casual and keys, and his guitar is sweet.

Years later, I regret that Stephen Stills Manassas could never put together again, even if only for a reunion tour.

I rate this CD is buy one.

Melody Time (Disney Gold Classic Collection) Overview


In the grand tradition of Disney's greatest musical classics such as FANTASIA, MELODY TIME features seven classic stories, each enhanced with high-spirited music and unforgettable characters! Donald Duck -- an all-time Disney favorite -- puts on a display of jazzy antics as the star of "Blame It On The Samba." Music becomes a real adventure for a busy bumble bee in "Bumble Boogie." From the mischievous young tugboat in "Little Toot," to the heroes of legend and myth in "Johnny Appleseed" and "Pecos Bill," this feast for the eyes and ears entertains with wit and charm. A timeless addition to your video collection, MELODY TIME is a delightful Disney classic with something for everyone in your family!

Melody Time (Disney Gold Classic Collection) Specifications


This is another collection of Disney shorts set to music, but this time the formula works. That's predicated on the inherent strength of the individual pieces and almost all of them come through. Surprisingly, two American folk heroes, Johnny Appleseed and Pecos Bill, are the stars of this show, with rousty little tunes, humor, and compelling linear story lines (a rarity in most of these shorts). Even the shorts that are weak in one area, thematically or musically, make up for it in another. There's very little of the Disney animators attempting to be 1940s modern, thank goodness, and there's a sterling quality in the depth of the art work. A definite plus to an animation (or Disney) collection. --Keith Simanton

In Absentia







In Absentia Overview


Hailed by Billboard as 'cinematic...simple gorgeous', Porcupine Tree are unquestionably one of the UK's most inspired and inventive rock groups. In Absentia is their eagerly anticipated Lava Records debut. Digipak. 2002.

In Absentia Specifications


After a quarter-century of punk and postmodern excesses, it's always something of a surprise to find young musicians who not only recall a past era's musical indulgences, but also revel in them. This Lava Records debut is the latest fruit of Porcupine Tree mainstay Steven Wilson's obsession with prog, a mania that dates to the late '80s when the "band" was little more than a fantasy, though one with a remarkably imaginative--if entirely fictional--history and bio. But that pipedream eventually became a real "alt prog" cult fave, with these dozen ambitious songs finding a focus that occasionally eluded the band on half-hour soundscapes like its underground hit, "Voyage 34." Tracks like "Gravity Eyelids" have a retro-psychedelic feel that would have done the XTC alter ego Dukes of Stratosphear proud, with Wilson's pure melodic tenor pushing it beyond the merely baroque. But the collection is also a strong statement of another crucial Wilson/Porcupine retro-sensibility: The album has unified musical statement. "Lips of Ashes" and "Prodigal" serve up the sort of impressionistic, harmony-rich musings that Pink Floyd has rarely managed since Wish You Were Here, while "The Creator Has a Master Tape" punctuates the rich harmonies of tracks like "Heart Attack in a Layby" with Crimson-esque metallic thrash and processed vocals. While the band's instrumental prowess sometimes slums its way into the free-form jazz noodling of past efforts, the album remains one of the band's fullest achievements. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews


I am a big Pink Floyd fan and a fan of '90s grunge and thrash metal, and it was difficult, a different artist, to find how Floyd sound. Then I installed the Pandora application on my phone and logically created a Pink Floyd-station. To my surprise, I heard "child prodigy" from this album, and my ears pricked up his ears.

I can explain the parallelism between the PF and PT? Not with much accuracy. But I hear similarities. Steve Wilson's soft vocals ala David Gilmour? MaybeThis is what it is. Deposits occasional noise? Maybe. Soaring guitar solos? Ambient Soundscapes? Slide guitar? Concept album? Less often, but the use of an intriguing mellotron and Hammond organ? Sure, why not. Regardless of "In Absentia" was my first encounter with PT and I have ordered for 5 more: the year delirium, Fear Of A Blank Planet Deadwing, Office of the Nile, tungsten, and so I also ordered the live concert DVD, too planning and trying to lift the 5.1 surround sound of the albums thatare in this format. Bulb is probably my favorite year. I plan to have all things PT's!

Then take from one end of the 30-something fan-PF - PT is rare, but justice eloquently for the metal fans to be in you, lots of singing harmony, and melodies script fountain, a modern, progressive-rock package may get the sack. If you're a PF, he feels "miracles" and feel some similarities with PF - a real treat too!

Chronicling the months from April through June 2009, the film is produced with the full support of the Estate of Michael Jackson and drawn from more than one hundred hours of behind-the-scenes footage, featuring Jackson rehearsing a number of his songs for the show. Audiences will be given a privileged and private look at Jackson as he has never been seen before. In raw and candid detail, Michael Jackson's This Is It captures the singer, dancer, filmmaker, architect, creative genius and great artist at work as he creates and perfects his final show. Directed by Kenny Ortega, who was both Michael Jackson's creative partner and the director of the stage show.

Michael Jackson: This Is It Specifications


It's hard not to watch This Is It without feeling a mixture of sorrow and elation. When he passed away in the summer of 2009, Michael Jackson was in the midst of rehearsals for his final tour, an ambitious 50-date engagement. In editing 120 hours of rehearsal footage together, Jackson producer Kenny Ortega proves that it would've been an event for the ages. Michael performs material that spans his career, from a Motown medley to multi-platinum hits from Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad. Though he hadn't toured in 10 years, it becomes instantly apparent, despite rumors to the contrary, that Jackson was still in full possession of that unmistakable voice--high-pitched whoops and all--and that he still had the gravity-defying moves of a man half his age. Jackson and Ortega also collaborated on some real showstoppers, such as a graveyard-set "Thriller"; an imposing "They Don't Care About Us," in which several dancers appear to morph into thousands; and a film noir sequence in which the singer slides in and out of Gilda and other black-and-white classics, singing "Smooth Criminal" all the while. Not everything works, like the Jackson 5 numbers, in which he flubs a few lyrics, claiming that his earpiece isn't working properly, but as he readily acknowledges, "That's what rehearsal is for." It's a tragedy that he didn't get the chance to share this dazzling show with the world, but Ortega allows fans to feel as if it actually happened--at least onscreen. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
