 | Hey Ma [Read More ...]
Description: It s the 2008 reunion album from Tim Booth and the rest of the James gang. Though they began their career as jangly guitar heroes in the '80s, it wasn't until the early '90s that James broke through commercially at the height of the Baggy scene. Their UK success crossed over into... |
 | Heartland: An Appalachian Anthology [Read More ...]
Description: The likes of Yo-Yo Ma, Sam Bush, Edgar Meyer, Joshua Bell, and Mark O'Connor can be heard on Heartland, a compilation featuring the best tracks from Sony's ongoing Appalachian-themed series of CDs. Individually, these folk and classical stars have little in common, but when they ... |
 | Odyssey [Read More ...]
Description: Hayley Westenra's new album Odyssey was always going to be a different proposition to Pure, the record-breaking 2003 collection which marked her international debut. A lot has happened to the young New Zealander over the past two or three years--and those changes are clearly refl... |
 | The Last Post [Read More ...]
Review: TOO BAD:After seeing Carbon / Silicon live on Direct TV, i was exited about the prospect of having a trip down memory lane with the studio CD. I was looking forward to CBGB's or London in '79. No frills, no production, just straight ahead, unpolished punk rock. Not punk rock in t... |
 | We Three Kings [Read More ...]
Description: There's a commercial inevitability to holiday song collections that can tempt music fans to mutter "humbug" under their breath. Yet while this collection (released in conjunction with the Tenors' Christmas Spectacular tour of 2003) is no less market savvy, in the end the trio's e... |
 | James Galway's Christmas Carol [Read More ...]
Review: very enjoyable:The master, James Galway, shows a depth of feeling in these carols. He never outshines the choir, but his harmonies in some of the arrangements are sheer joy to hear. The choir is a little hard to understand, because this was obviously not recorded in the best of ... |
 | Les Miserables Complete Symphonic Recording [Read More ...]
Review: My favorite album in my entire CD collection!:THE SHOW:
In my opinion, Les Misérables is the best musical ever written. It is surprisingly faithful to its source, the excellent epic novel by Victor Hugo. True, many plot episodes have been dropped and some characters have been c... |
 | The Very Best of the Irish Tenors [Read More ...]
Description: In the short time since they grouped together a few years ago to form their sensationally successful trio, the Irish Tenors have already put out an impressive array of recordings and DVDs, including some bona fide gooseflesh-inducing live concert performances. So, if you still ha... |
 | Winter's Crossing [Read More ...]
Another great collection.:The story of Irish coming to America told in song. A very moving collaboration by Phil Coulter and James Galway. The vocals as usual are outstanding. |
 | The Light in the Piazza (2005 Original Broadway Cast) [Read More ...]
Description: The Light in the Piazza is arguably one of the most highly anticipated theatrical events of the decade for serious Broadway theatergoers. The Los Angeles Times has already declared its creator, Nonesuch artist Adam Guettel, "a composer for the new century," on the strength of his... |
 | The Prayer Cycle [Read More ...]
Description: It is with primitive urgency and lustrous clarity rising like flickering embers from a fire that Jonathan Elias's ambitious Prayer Cycle is given voice. Woven together like knotty wool, silk, and fine strands of silvery water, the disparate yet complementary voices of the late Nu... |
 | Legends [Read More ...]
Description: Flutist James Galway and pianist Phil Coulter seek to present a handful of the most widely recognizable Celtic melodies in Legends. "Danny Boy" gets an intimate flute and piano treatment, while the famed "Riverdance" gets a full orchestral background and uillean pipes solo. There... |
 | ...Believe What I Say [Read More ...]
Brilliant debut release from 1996, now available for the first time in the U.S. The best blue-eyed soul voice in many a decade backs up his vocal skills with his own finely crafted R&B songs. Duets with Doris Troy and Van Morrison complete a sublime album of rhythm & soul music. |
 | Zamfir: The Lonely Shepherd [Read More ...]
The King of Panflute:There is no doubt that this musician plays with his heart and here he proves it over and over again true this CD.
No wonder "The Lonely Shepherd" is one of many, many people's favorites.
The recording is excellent too.
Five stars out of five.

 | Film Music of Thomas Newman [Read More ...]
Review: Seven Oscar Nominated Scores Represented:Can one say that they have arrived when there is a greatest hits recording by a third party? The answer is a resounding yes in the case of Thomas Newman. Seven of his Oscar nominated scores as well as his Emmy award-winning theme Six Fee... |
 | Bryn Terfel - Simple Gifts [Read More ...]
Description: Everything about Bryn Terfel is over-life-size: his physique, his personality, his breath-control, and of course his extraordinarily beautiful voice. This recording displays his stunning vocalism and versatility to full advantage, but its title belies its content. Alhough it does... |

 | The Wind Beneath My Wings [Read More ...]
Not What I Expected:I heard James Galway on my TV Channel for easy listening and loved the song I heard. However, this CD was not easy listening and I was extremely disappointed. |
 | Music from the Films of Tim Burton [Read More ...]
Review: Tim Burton Music:The nice things about this is that the music is all instrumental. So it's nice to just hear the music without anyone singing. I have all these from the original movie soundtracks, but this is different enough. If you are a fan of the music from Burton's music ... |
