Sigh No More






Sigh No More Feature


  • ISBN13:
  • Condition: NEW
  • Notes: Brand New from Publisher. No Remainder Mark.


Sigh No More Overview


Mumford & Sons, West London indie rock quartet, have created a gutsy, old-time sound that marries the magic of Crosby, Stills & Nash with the might of Kings of Leon and the harmonies of Fleet Foxes. Sigh No More was recorded at Eastcoast Studios, where Arctic Monkeys, Brian Eno, Tindersticks and Laura Marling have honored their sound. The band teamed with producer Markus Dravs who has worked with such superstar acts as Arcade Fire, Bjork and Peter Gabriel. Sigh No More was recently released in the UK to critical accolades. The album debut in the UK iTunes Top 10 recently and is being lauded by tastemaker publications. The first single, Little Lion Man , is already being boasted as The Hottest Record in the World by Radio 1's Zane Lowe, and the band has been long listed for the BBC Sounds of 2008 Pool, which features the most promising new music talent.
Formed in 2007, that band's goal since day one has been to make music that matters. Before recording their debut, Mumford & Sons self produced three EP's and toured the UK extensively, bringing their rootsy rock across the country. The band recently wrapped a handful of well-received performances during the annual CMJ Music Marathon in New York, which left Time Out NY to comment, The Brit combo has a spine-tingling way to harmony.


Customer Reviews


Although I did not drink the Kool-Aid to other auditors, I think this is a solid album and the album rarely gets better as you go along.

During the first songs I strongly reminded Old Crow Medicine Show and Brothers Avetta - not a bad thing, but the sound was American roots, and do better. Track around 3 or 4 I started to feel a little British accent, and eventually I felt involved in music. Normally, I amnot much enter text, but I note that the writer takes the easy rhyme. I am pleased to say that these texts are good (if not breathtaking, like many other reviewers have said).

This group reminds me only of others - many others. I can not have their own distinctive sound, but show great flexibility. It is worth to listen to their CD, and I feel that the experience gets better with every listen. Not many groups can doComplaint. Maybe I'll fall completely in love with her at the end. At the moment I am just amazed at the huge amount of fear, love this band.

Disney's Greatest Vol. 2







Disney's Greatest Vol. 2 Overview


Disney's Greatest Vol. 2



Customer Reviews


We bought volume 1 and 2. The only problem is that our kids (1 and 3 girls) want to listen to this ALL the time. Well, that's not true...they flip flop between Volume 1 and 2 all the time. Anyway, the girls like most of the contemporary songs and sometimes want us to skip past the older "movie" songs, but for the most part every song is great. As an old-timer, I enjoy hearing the old songs too. So, you cannot go wrong with volumes 1 and 2. Not sure if boys would like it, but I'm guessing they would too. Well worth the money for long trips (tons better listening to this music than some of the annoying CDs being put out for toddlers) and for short trips as well. One more thing, these are all the original songs, i.e. the music isn't redone by some other artist. Not all of the Disney CDs are like this. Be sure you know what you are getting for artists if you get other Disney CDs. Finally, shipping was very quick too.

Little Honey







Little Honey Overview


Lucinda Williams has always been adept at painting landscapes of the soul, illuminating the spirit's shadowy nooks and shimmering crannies -- but she's never captured the sun breaking through the clouds as purely as on her new Lost Highway release, Little Honey

The album features a duet with Elvis Costello "Jailhouse Tears" Other guest vocalists include Matthew Sweet, Susanna Hoffs, Jim Lauderdale, Tim Easton and Charlie Louvin.

The first single "Real Love" is available for download in the Amazon MP3 store.

Little Honey Specifications


Lucinda Williams does anguish so well it’s easy to forget that Happy Woman Blues is not just the title of her 1980 album, but also the way she thinks of herself. That identity comes across full force in Little Honey, the follow-up to 2007’s heavily brooding West, where her melancholy voice seemed to creak with sadness. Here, a full-throated Williams revels in the rejuvenation of her engagement to her manager/co-producer Tom Overby, over whom she’s positively giddy on "Real Love." Her newfound bliss opens the floodgates to a musical revival, as well, since Little Honey, her ninth studio album, ranks as one of her most diverse, ranging from pounding rock ‘n’ roll (the raw sex of the title track) to the Hank Williams-ish country blues of "Well, Well, Well," to "Knowing"'s ‘60s soul. But some of the finest writing appears on "Plan to Marry," as thoughtful a meditation on love as any time-honored sonnet. Just when Williams seems to have run the gamut, she pulls out a Stones-y (via Louisiana) cover of AC/DC’s "It’s a Long Way to the Top" as the punctuation mark. It all makes for a rollicking ride with one of roots-rock's most unpredictable and passionate artists. -– Alanna Nash

Customer Reviews


Wow, I can not believe the bad reviews and got this. I'm a fan because of their random three albums, so I had nothing to lose, when I heard this, and I liked out of state: fuel some Hank, Earle, Mazzy Star, and Dusty in a pot and add a Casandra Wilson to touch the soul and you have LW. Of course his voice sounds a little 'calculating, sometimes affected, but let me tell you, you heartache really well, as we have said several times, so you now get an eclectic mix of songs, the other tap otherOpportunities. Love the feeling first, tasty guitar work is well remind me of Neil Young with Crazy Horse in time. A little 'tasteful horn work Mephis style here and there. His duet with Elvis Costello is the best honky-tonk, has ever done (believe me, I searched his "country" record). Your opening may be an acquired taste. This is a shock and awe of the quality of some of the songs and some are a bit 'boring (you may know about it) from "what a joke Zen-like is happening,but overall this is a fascinating work, and I do not think it is right to do so until the sacred monsters of the past

American IV: The Man Comes Around







American IV: The Man Comes Around Overview


UK special edition reissue of The Man In Black's brilliant 2002 album includes two bonus tracks, 'Big Iron' (previously vinyl only) & 'Hurt' (video). American Recordings. 2003.

American IV: The Man Comes Around Specifications


On first thought, the idea of the Man in Black recording such covers as "Bridge over Troubled Water," "Danny Boy," and "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" might seem odd, even for an artist who's been able to put his personal stamp on just about everything. But American IV: The Man Comes Around, which also draws on Cash's original songs as well as those by Nine Inch Nails ("Hurt"), Sting ("I Hung My Head"), and Depeche Mode ("Personal Jesus"), may be one of the most autobiographical albums of the 70-year-old singer-songwriter's career. Nearly every tune seems chosen to afford the ailing giant of popular music a chance to reflect on his life, and look ahead to what's around the corner. From the opening track--Cash's own "The Man Comes Around," filled with frightening images of Armageddon--the album, produced by Rick Rubin, advances a quiet power and pathos, built around spare arrangements and unflinching honesty in performance and subject. In 15 songs, Cash moves through dark, haunted meditations on death and destruction, poignant farewells, testaments to everlasting love, and hopeful salutes to redemption. He sounds as if he means every word, his baritone-bass, frequently frayed and ravaged, taking on a weary beauty. By the time he gets to the Beatles' "In My Life," you'll very nearly cry. Go ahead. He sounds as if he's about to, too. Unforgettable. --Alanna Nash

Customer Reviews


There is no doubt that "American IV: The Man Comes Around" is a great job, and many great art, asks more questions than answers. This also applies to Johnny Cash. This makes him a great man?

It seems likely - I can not for many other artists in all styles, one of their best works written in old age, but this is exactly what cash is to think with the title track, "The Man Comes Around." This song sets the tone in a variety of opportunities forRest of the album - sounds like a sermon, but rather as an attempt to explain the spiritual world, is more like an attempt to fathom it. In his liner notes, Cash has confirmed that get a lot of these images from the book of Revelation, but there are less than descriptive review has been filed and the item Cash is less numb to triumph.

Sure, he had good reason to be surprised by this. Who would have thought that Johnny Cash was not only the host Member State hasfor hip-hop king Rick Rubin at the time of his life, but would like a crush around him four times to do it? This may explain his decision known, some incredible songs record out-of-characters of this set.

It included a few originals, including his old standard "Give My Love Rose 'and some traditional classics such as" Streets of Laredo "but this album is more attention to Nine Inch Nails'" Hurt "and Depeche Mode" Personal Jesus. When you hearto the original versions of these figures, we must ask what has the man in black, to make a couple of synth melodies, with hints of all things industrial.

Before joining this, I speak a little 'the rest of the album, because I think those two pieces actually fit pretty well. Cash has always been interested in the tip of human experience - all you need do is listen to include "Ring of Fire" and of course, knows that thisLaughter all leavened with a passion and ecstasy to despair and death, often with a healthy portion. "American IV" is somehow the ideal of this approach to music, and the accompanying strips down issues in high relief.

Cash's voice adds a lot, too. It 's always been a devastating instrument of nature that could lead to the cave walls of the temple, but let's face it - in 2002, was the man in his late 60s and suffers from a soundChronic condition of blood, and his voice had worn a lot. It seems less like God's voice as the voice of a very stubborn man, this is exactly what needs most of this music. (I must admit that adding some guest singers not much - Rubin have done better to leave out.)

Thus, these melodies, their system over the whole range of emotional map. They are full of love, death, despair, cynicism and joy. It is also eternal themes synth bandGripper with, so why not their material?

There are those who sound bar "Hurt" and "Personal Jesus" as old ballads tell the country, but I disagree. You sound like Johnny Cash songs, all right, but the arrangements are a bit 'too modern approaches to sound something like the Carter Family. Cash shot "Hurt" (Nine Inch Nails, which was as jarring murmur of anger and pain) in an application for hope, and turns "Personal Jesus" (Depeche Mode, as recordedAttack on televangelist with a shuffle beat) in a gospel tune on the straight 4.4 Time. We used to think that this age of the world not to believe everything, but the Cash version of the old music hall number, "Sam Hall" is much more cynical than one of these modern figures, and more fun. Clearly, in this age of the world is not as materialistic as we thought. Johnny Cash Trust to find all people of faith in the music industry and people who do.

ThisCash almost like he knew he could not get another chance to sing for us and decided that is not in things, but it seems solid - battery appears on one cut ("Tear Stained Letter" and the boy I had decided Song by Richard Thompson with the same record name) is not the guitar or bass in general, and producers had to bring the good feeling in a couple of Heartbreakers by Tom Petty, just to be sure that things were tasty.

But it's Johnny Cash Show, and aphenomenal rise of the curtain. His wife died in June shortly after the "American IV: The Man Around were" around, and Johnny does not take much longer. I can imagine that he now has answers to questions raised by this album. The rest of us are left with questions, but it is not a bad thing, especially if in a form in which this could happen.

Benshlomo says: When the old is a question that we would do well to listen.

Trans-Continental Hustle







Trans-Continental Hustle Overview


2010 release, the eagerly-awaited fifth studio album from the Alt-Rock outfit and the first to be release since 2007's Super Taranta!. Produced by Grammy award-winning producer Rick Rubin, Trans-Continental Hustle combines the band's radical invocations of positive primal energy and planetary consciousness with music infused with Ska, Metal, Punk, Rap, Dub and intimations of indigenous Brazilian sounds to produce a party maelstrom of electrifying proportions. Led by revolutionary change agent and provocateur Eugene Hutz, Gogol Bordello, a nine-piece juggernaut of gypsy rebel soul, has become an international force to be reckoned with.


Customer Reviews


Since I first heard the band on the Henry Rollins show I was hooked. In a world where most music is an iterative process, as many as play outside, but in a way that very few are really hot, these people are in great need of fresh air. Your particular style, the mix of cultures and you can hear their frantic but controlled approach to the sound. Accordions, violins violins?, Guitars, bass and a group of talented musicians with another drummer driven. Discover thisSinger is a true man of the world, now live in Brazil. He is the personification of music and, yes, I see him play with himself an acoustic guitar, anytime, anywhere. This is truly a troubadour music with Eastern Europe, in particular on its makeup. Gypsies are a serious thing there! Their code of life is not your lose 9-5 mentality promoted type. Wandering, sucking the marrow of life, because they are genetically and are willing to travel great value music and dance. This isnot your Pink Floyd, immerse the listener on themes of alienation and legume systematics, where the public, perhaps put aside when, listening to us and their money, their music, played to perfection, is transported to a full extension of their sound. I do not know why I put on Pink Floyd in the picture, because they always top of their game when it comes to pure entertainment are. No, Gogol Bordello never the norm, what the billreflect on their tables ritual, which is the number one (Justin Bieber?) and who is on the line. Gogol Bordello do not play for awards, a Billboard promotes, are probably more from the streets, as the brightness of the TV Guide and American Idol. These can be pop music, very melodic, good sense of the world, and a man called to bring a flashlight. Great album, it seems his development as a group that got closer. I'm not sophisticated enough to detectThe influence of Paul Rubin (famous producer or something?) It was in the band, or whether this new management has deviated from her suspiciously. All I know is that I wake up feeling cold beer surrounded by the craziest but best company, a good party, upon request, and came when the entire album from the speaker above the average in a very narrow band ( There are times when you only up to a volume of crank!) had had enough of what was needed. This is not a fake music and Mr. EugeneHutz? (I'm a wreck last names!) Is a rare find. I give them five stars for their type of music moves me, something that is absolutely necessary. For me doing a band of gypsies, they do best and more people should give themselves the time they take a listen. Are another thing, Hot Stuff, boring past the area.

Dark Was the Night







Dark Was the Night Overview


On the occasion of WORLD AIDS DAY today, December 1st a press announcement was made with the complete list of participating artists and cover art for the upcoming 4AD
release Dark Was The Night. Dark Was The Night will be released on February 17th, 2009. Aaron and Bryce Dessner of The National produced the album, and John Carlin, the founder of the Red Hot
Organization was the executive producer. A total of 31 exclusive tracks have been recorded for the compilation. It will be available as a double cd/triple viny and will benefit the Red Hot Organization - an international charity dedicated to raising funds and awareness for HIV
and AIDS. Red Hot was founded on the premise that even without a cure, AIDS remains a preventable disease and music is a great vehicle to raise money and awareness for it.

Dark Was The Night began three years ago with a casual conversation between Aaron and Bryce Dessner of The National and John Carlin. In discussing the project, they agreed it made sense not to do a "theme" album per se; but something that showcased the best in independent music, with an emphasis on traditional themes played and arranged in a contemporary way, and on songwriting, which is the strength of many of the artists featured here. As Aaron and Bryce started inviting their peers to contribute, their intuition about the pro-social disposition of so many of them was confirmed. As a result, 31 exclusive tracks were recorded.


Customer Reviews


They are usually compilations of attention, but this album produced by Aaron and Bryce National Dessner and John Carlin for the Red Hot Organization and the 20th anniversary of the AIDS charity, I was surprised. With a line-up of some of the best indie artists in late 2000, there is something for everyone. Bon Iver, Iron & Wine, Sufjan Stevens, Feist, Ben Gibbard and Jose Gonzalez are among the great artists who contributed mainly new compositions. Some of my favorite SharonJones & The Dap-Kings Shuggie Otis includes' "Inspiration Information" David Byrne "Funny, but terrible" Knotty Pine "and the haunting, melodic Bon Iver always called" Brackett, WI. "The incredible talent pairs indie siren Feist with Grizzly Bear lo-fi must create the" Service Bell ", a song that reveals a side of Feist's beautiful singing was not always present in his solo material. Incredibly, for a coherent cooperation , dark night of all be removedremote interest in one of these artists and that's a good thing, should more tilted.

The Essential Roy Orbison







The Essential Roy Orbison Overview


From his hardcore '50s Memphis start to his symphonic 1960s masterpieces and his stunning 1980s comeback,Roy Orbison's uniformly extraordinary recordings still rank today as some of American music's finest. Gifted with a soaring voice that conjured vulnerability and loss with acute precision, the Texas-boren singer-songwriter-guitarist wasted no time-he had his own radio show at age ten and formed his first rock & roll band, The Teen Kings in 1955. Recording at Sam Philips' legendary Sun Studios alongside Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash, Orbison was stillseeking his ideal sound and, after parting ways with Sun,finally found it, with 1960s "Only The Lonely". Orbison's creativity gave birth to a unique, highly individualized, orchestral pop-rock style that resulted in a series of masterpieces and him an international start. By 1988, Orbison was enjoying a dream comeback:topping the charts with songs that once again cemented his reputation as a pop genius;while death claimed him too soon, The Essential Roy Orbison (which marks this legend's 70th Anniversary)charts the entire grand trajectory of his unrivaled career.


Customer Reviews

#1 Record/Radio City Overview


There's a lot of truth to the statement that the art lives on, long after the artist has gone or changed directions. This is certainly the case with Big Star, a Memphis band forged out of a willful vision, whose brief existence profoundly affected scores of artists spearheading the post-punk/alternative power pop schools of music throughout the eighties and nineties. R.E.M., The Replacements, The Posies, Teenage Fan Club, Wilco, and The Bangles, are just a few of the artists who have acknowledged a huge debt to Big Star. This newly remastered version of #1 Record / Radio City features enhanced packaging and two unreleased bonus tracks!


Customer Reviews


Back in the '80s and '90s, I was happy, particularly the auspices of a progressive (though sometimes also mean a contradiction in terms, I admit it!) My friend from the glories of Big Star, Alex Band Chilton. LS had the first two albums, and his other 45. Later, when I realized that he was a hero groups like REM, Nirvana, Guided By Voices, Replacements (name of a song after him), Teenage Fan Club, to name a few, are "get it", as biggerwas. The coup de grace was, of course, the untimely death of Alex March 17 (only 59). This led me to this CD collection to buy. Now I have heard all the way through 3X and it was a revelation! As I told my friend, was the biggest pop / rock and roll stuff I've heard in 20 years! incredible things, "Feel", "In The Street" (the theme "The '70s Show"), "Do not Lie To Me", "you get what you deserve," "September Girls" and my personal favorte "I 'm In Love With A Girl." Brilliant,material engineering, I would recommend to anyone, I can not wait for "third party"!

Odd Blood






Odd Blood Feature


  • ISBN13: 0656605021027
  • Condition: NEW
  • Notes: Brand New from Publisher. No Remainder Mark.


Odd Blood Overview


Since the release of their critically acclaimed 2007 debut All Hour Cymbals, Yeasayer has been around the world and back again. While their first record was conceived in total artistic isolation, constant touring forced Yeasayer to finally engage with their contemporaries. If All Hour Cymbals was Yeasayer's attempt at global and ambient cultural mash-up then their new album, ODD BLOOD, takes place in an off-world colony sometime after the Singularity. Glimmering reverb haze is eschewed and replaced by a cavalcade of disorienting pitch effects and flickering ectoplasmic wisps.


Customer Reviews


Yeasayer Odd Blood album begins with "The Children", a song, the feeling of a very dark, the use of distorted vocals and a slow pace driving. The first song and is full of lush atmosphere and a beautiful piano melody, which comes in various locations of the song. The next song, "ambling Alp", has a much more optimistic feel to it. This is achieved by using a more optimistic time, and a catchy chorus hook. Ultimately, "ambling Alp" has a much happierI feel like the first track, and this style is optimistic about the next song "Madder Red", he continues, which has almost the feeling of the eighties, recalls as a very glossy surface, this decade. In addition, the song is a more traditional sense, as seems less an example use, even if the song is still based on synthesizers.
"I Remember" is the next track, begins with a texture and pleasant environment that is the whole song. But as the songdevelops, builds his heart and adds elements of melody to the background ambient air. Ultimately, "I Remember" is a very relaxing listening experience can be felt through its itinerant nature and relaxing. "ONE" follows and opens with a strong rhythm, and added synthesizers, a very catchy song, full of energy, a nice contrast with the light "I Remember" is created. accelerates Next "Comes Love Me Girl", a song that starts slowly but quickly once the percussion section begins, createsa pace reminiscent of the tango. This song has a lot of beer club feel than its predecessor for the album, probably because of its deep bass and fast paced. "Rome" follows, and in some ways sounds very retro and modern. This is possible because the rhythm and beat of the song sounds very vintage, but the music is electronically generated results in a very particular sound that emulates old Rock and Roll Music, and is not in a digital format. "Strange Meeting"begins with a sound that recalls the music of eastern hemisphere than it sounds in the background reminds strongly to be synthesized sitar. Furthermore, the vocal style is similar to a hymn rather than the song even less Western. Ultimately, the song is a very relaxing piece, as opposed to the "Green World", begins with a very optimistic, the pace hard and almost crazy sounding voice. This song contrasts very well with "Strange Meeting", as is almostcompletely opposite, with a horn section and more defined melodies instead of the foggy atmosphere "Reunions Strange. However, the song takes a drastic change in his 03:30 mark as its melody and beat then lost to the ambient atmosphere. The final song of the album, "Grizelda" is a very nice final album, as it allows both relaxing and powerful song. Although it has been relatively slow to create the song full of energy and is very rewardingListening experience. Ultimately Odd Blood as a whole offers a unique and interesting listening to music, with songs for every mood you may be in

Congratulations is the successor to MGMT's Oracular Spectacular, the 2008 debut album. Soulful and complex, Congratulations is a surprising and delightful quantum step forward in MGMT's ongoing pop revolution.

But this album is really good. I made this album when I heard Delerium Flash. I really thought I was watching the cars look so much like Ben Goldwasser Ric Ocasek in the new video. The video was fantastic, very funny and trippy delivered with a good dose of light heavy object. MGMT is apparently angry that his appearance not to their feelings, but for people who care, I think it finally hit the mark. Brian Eno's late 70's psychadelicglam feel sort tossed with a little 'New Wave, but pointed out its sound. MGMT is great has always been in the production of a good hook, but I'm happy that grew from an eventual return to the material most directly rock band forward.

The debut release from The Jimi Hendrix Experience is widely regarded as the greatest, most influential debut release from any artist. When first released in 1967, Are You Experienced turned the music world upside down as Hendrix showed everyone exactly what it meant to be 'experienced.' Remastered from the original 2-track mixdown master tapes, this expanded 17-song collection features the ageless classics "Purple Haze," "Red House," "Stone Free," "Hey Joe," and "Are You Experienced."

DELUXE CD/DVD EDITIONS OF JIMI'S CLASSIC STUDIO ALBUMS!

36 page booklets include detailed session info, liner notes, photos and memorabilia

DVDs contain exclusive "making of" mini documentaries

Original Classic Albums also available on 180 gram audiophile LP with gatefold jackets and color LP booklets


Customer Reviews


Jimi Hendrix is one of the greatest artists and guitarists of all time. Ok, now with that said, with the revision. Jimi Hendrix has been through some important reprints and still continued, so what's different about this series? Now for audio, nothing really, but the DVD is where the collection is unique.

The audio portion of the disc is nothing new if you have previously experienced Jimi. This album has a debut album and in my personal opinion, my favorite. It features songs like"Purple Haze, Foxy Lady," "Fire," "Red House" and other hits. The package of new albums have been remastered, and it is, but compared to Greatest Hits albums remastered or the last album, there is nothing else. To say that it is a good thing! The audio portion is great! It 's a clean environment, but still owns the old school Jimi in the 60s. If the CD in and listen to Purple Haze again takes you back in time and you're groovin 'again. Despite the absence ofDifference is really great that the mixer does not add anything new. Remaster some of the music industry does nothing now compared. Then, the sound is amazing. In my opinion, I do not think you can much better with the sound of it, without destroying the true sound of Jimi (Yes, there are arguments). The audio part is what this album listens well and is a given.

And now the DVD:

For those who have seen the DVD, Ishould say, for fans of Jimi is very cool. This is not cheese or something, is in my opinion, a good documentary Jimi. It is not the best, but honestly, for $ 10, you get something. I do not know if many of you have seen, but there is a documentary by Nirvana (Nevermind their album), which is very similar to this.

For this DVD, they are clearly not Jimi chaired interview. Instead, he took on a more modern approach and interviewed people likeEddie Kramer, Chas Chandler, Mitch Mitchell and Noel Redding (which is really cool). As in 2010, bring you back like it was recording with Jimi, and experience, they had to do the album and the songs play. I do not move "or" Land Lady Documentaries yet, but I saw must assume are the same as those experienced doc.

Over the next 17-minute film, Eddie Kramer (and the rest of the band) is that through songs like Purple Haze, may be held this love,The Wind Cries Mary, Are You Experienced. During these songs, many photos and archive footage is shown of Jimi, Mitch and Noel during their career experience. A couple of shots better than Jimi playing guitar live to play drums Mitch, Noel base game, etc. This is how to store records flashbacks. Strangely, there was almost no footage of Jimi in the studio. Curiously, once again, the material I cited, very little. In fact, the documentary shows, above all, Kramer and hisMixing with Jimi and how some of the songs were mixed in different ways. The rest of the interviewer to talk about the songs above. are for me, I wanted more, even if that meant adding some live footage of Jimi playing his songs live. Instead, the interviewer is talking about Jimi songs. Which is cool and informative, but not exactly what fans want Jimi (at least some).

The packaging is what you expect from a set deluxe. E 'in a digipak, andcomes with CD, DVD and a booklet of 35 pages with notes and texts to the creation of this album. It also features photographs of Jimi and the band (although things especially Jimi of course) and offers photos of posters and small. It 's definitely nice to check out. The album, Ladyland in particular, also feature original cover art and concepts for the album.

So in all, I think this is a worthy reissue of one of the greatest albums of Jimi. I think the DVDis cold, but not spectacular, then again to $ 10, what are you waiting for? If you buy all the albums remastered, then you're really always about 80 - 100 minutes worth. Furthermore, you are always with the music to him. For fans of Jimi and those with the remastered series before, you're basically spending $ 10 for the DVD and the booklet (which is cool in itself, I add) and I mean that there is still a worthy investment for the price. But for those who do not own these albums, then thisfor the collection. The sound is excellent, the DVD is a good watch and the packaging is great! RIP Jimi!

Enhanced UK pressing of the American singer/songwriter's 2007 album features unique artwork and four bonus tracks: live versions of 'Downpour' and 'Josephine' plus enhanced videos of 'Turpentine' and 'The Story'. On The Story, Brandi Carlile opens up her heart, soul, and psyche in a series of memorable songs that invite you into her world. The intensity and authenticity of her music brought her to the attention of the Grammy Award-winning producer T Bone Burnett (Counting Crows, Roy Orbison) who came on-board to produce The Story.

The Story Specifications


The Brandi Carlile story so far is fairly short: fresh-faced singer-song writer from rural Ravensdale, Washington, quietly releases a 2005 debut that has critics and fans reaching for their thesauruses searching for appropriate adjectives to describe her voice. Patsy Cline, Jeff Buckley, kd lang, Beth Orton, Linda Ronstadt, and Aimee Mann get name-checked as Carlile and her guitar-and-bass-playing Hanseroth twins-led band criss-cross the country for two years, first as openers, then as headliners. Cue the overproduced, disappointing follow-up album? Not so fast. On The Story, Carlile teams up with veteran roots producer T Bone Burnett, who brings in vintage equipment and strips down her sound. Instead of using overdubs, the new songs--most of which were already road-tested--are recorded live, giving the ballads and midtempo rockers a tough, uncompromising edge and a fuller, more aggressive attack. Echoes of country and folk color the bucolic "Have You Ever" and the unadorned acoustic "Cannonball," but it's the sweeping drama of the more epic-sounding "Until I Die," "Late Morning Lullaby," and the U2-styled "My Song" that leave the greatest lasting impressions. Carlile and Burnett make a perfect team: he allows her malleable voice room to soar in the mix while she brings sharp original songs that exude confidence, pride, and emotion. It's a combustive combination and one that results in a sophomore release every bit as good, and in many respects better, than her first. Stay tuned as the story continues. --Hal Horowitz

How many years since we have a "real singer, he can actually move and we had melodies stick in your head? At the end of 1960 with Linda Ronstead? 70 and 80 with Eva Cassidy?
Yes, we had votes from groups that shook us loose like Nancy Wilson, Heart and chicks Abba and Roxette is Marie. But where is the only woman with a voice so memorable melodies you can not get standing on your head?
Here we go .......... this chick, Brandi Carlile beganlike a little girl called pork ...... Who Cares? What happened to his voice was pure magic. Where songwriting skills come I do not know? He has written lyrics that stick in your mind with melodies that are eternal. Some texts are weak, as in The Story, "do not know my hair is a disaster." So, once again, who cares? We still love the song.
Other sizes available on this CD were killed and Cannon Ball Till I and, in fact, every damn song on the CD listening a lot. One of the best performancesyears ..........

Weapons of Self Destruction Overview


Robin Williams - comedian, writer and Academy Award-winning actor - returned to HBO for his first solo TV concert since 2002. The show was filmed at Washington D.C.'s DAR Constitution Hall on his sold-out "Weapons Of Self Destruction" national tour. Robin covers such topics as global warning, health care in America (suggesting a "cash for clunkers" for elderly relatives), and more personal topics such as his recent open heart surgery. Bonus features include clips from Robin's previous concerts - some dating back to 1978 - as well as tour highlights filmed all along the 2009 tour.


Customer Reviews


I saw this show live with my father in November and could not wait to see the windows and listen again. I ordered two minutes before giving it to my father for his birthday last week too (perfect timing!). Robin's first spirit and energy are so fast and furiously, as they have always been, and covers a wide range of current topics. The language and subject matter are a bit 'biggest of his tour sponsored by HBO 7-8 years, but until you are offended his sense of humor will not beArguments.

I can not believe that pushing 60 and still on stage to listen to this strong, especially after coming from open surgery. I hope that is still strong for some more laps!
