Teaching Peace.......2007-05-07

Excellent for use at home. Outstanding for classroom climate in younger grades.

Wonderful, Wonderful!.......2007-01-13

I've been giving this(first a cassette, now a cd) as a gift to children since it first appeared in the mid-80's. It's as fresh and wonderful today as it was then. I know many children who grew up knowing the words to all the songs and internalizing the wonderful messages they impart.Check out other cd's by Red.

Grandchildren Love It.......2007-01-05

This CD provides lively songs that offer kids a positive approach to life and problem solving and are also great fun to dance to. My grandchildren really enjoy it!

Kids Rock! A must have for the whole family!.......2005-02-12

I was so touched by the voices of these children on this CD. What an inspiration for kids of all ages. Childrens Music with CLASS~ Buy it..You'll Love it.

Little Charlie Breaks Out.......2006-07-12

I have found that this album has all of the styles of blues that a true blues lover could ever get. From the opening drum riff on "The Big Break" to the closing note on the song "Me and Miss Ann," the boys give it their all. I especially dig the rhythm of "Kansas City Woman". The superb lead guitar work in this song would make Eric Clapton sit up and take notice. I definitely recommend this album to all blues fans.

Little Charlie & The Nightcats Makes The Blues Fun.......2006-03-11

LITTLE CHARLIE & THE NIGHTCATS
The Big Break
Alligator ALCD 4776

The blues, like all musical genres, has many styles. Although they tend to lean toward a West Coast sound, on "The Big Break" Little Charlie & The Nightcats provides an education in most blues techniques. You'll hear everything from a straight forward shuffle "Dump That Chump" to rockabilly "Hurry Up And Wait" to swing "Jump Start". Rick Estrin's nimble as a cat vocals and classic harp, combined with Charlie Baty's fat-toned guitar, have been the core of the band's bouncy sound since they formed in Sacramento, California over 30 years ago. This CD features the memorable rhythm section of Jay Peterson (bass) and Dobie Strange (drums), who only appeared on the band's first few albums.

This is one of those rare discs where each tune is snappy. All 12 tracks (seven were written by Estrin) come with enough grease to lubricate a rusty hinge. The influence of Charlie Christian comes out during Baty's guitar solo on the title track. Suave Little Charlie doesn't need several minutes to captivate his listeners. On "I Beg Your Pardon", he allures while exercising a 90 second guitar solo. With an underlining message to be careful when living the blues life, "Don't Do It" is one of the funniest tunes ever. At the same time, it is one the best rockin' boogies of the twentieth Century. The song features the brilliant Jim Pugh, who busts loose on piano. How can you resist breaking into a hearty belly laugh upon hearing lyrics such as ("if a rabbit won't eat it / you don't need it")? Pugh's high class piano returns on "Some Nerve" where Baty adds edgy guitar. With a harp that crackles like a 45 RPM Chess Record, "Lottery" is old time Chicago blues. "Side Stuff" should have been a hit when this album was released in 1989. In fact, given FM airplay, it could be a hit now.

Witty lyrics are made funnier with Estrin's comic styled vocals, which are expressive and loaded with emotion. He knows how to use his voice as a musical instrument. Forget about long, boring guitar solos and lyrics that tell tales of woe, Little Charlie & The Nightcats has the innate ability to make the blues fun. Humor may be a well-known characteristic of the band, but their superior musicianship is of the highest standard and quality.

--- Tim Holek

Blues with a Funny twist.......2005-09-29

This album is very very fun. It's jump blues because it makes you want to jump out of your chair and dance til you faint from exhaustion, but it also has entertaining lyrics that make you laugh yourself silly. One of my favorite songs on this is "Dump that Chump" because it's darn funny "Dump that Chump and come on home with me...." "Me and Miss Anne" is a generic blues song -- but sweet. Other songs, like the title song remain amusing and bluesy in a way that only Rick Estrin can do it -- somewhere between Snake Oil Salesman trying to get himself some and amazing blues artist that he is. Between his work on the harp and Little Charlie wailing on the guitar, this album rocks from start to finish.

Perfect introduction to the carillon..........1998-10-30

James Lawson plays the carillon at the Crystal Cathedral, a unique instrument because of its major-third overtones as opposed to the typical minor-third overtones of a carillon. The Cathedral Carillon has a particularly rich sound, which Lawson harnesses with a flair in his arrangements of hymns tunes and recognizable classics. The carillon has long been known as the most democratic of instruments, and Lawson plays it as it should be heard--with music people know and love.

This recording is very relaxing as well, and is of paticular use as focus music for prayer or small worship settings, or for listening at the end of a long day.

Product Description

Before mixtapes took over the streets and the likes of G Unit and the Diplomats became the sound of New York, P&P records and its various imprints such as Queen Constance were the soundtrack for the citys restless youth. Big Break Rapper Party is a cross section of original school rappers from Hip Hops earliest days... days when Hip Hop was a movement that had barely made it downtown much less around the world. Back in The Big Break Rapper Party day there was plenty of braggin and boastin over rhythms just too funky and aggressive to be played in the discothques of the era. These tracks document those early days of Hip Hop. Days when the likes of Peter Brown, Bobby Robinson and Paul Winley helped create the blueprint for what would become the multi-billion dollar industry known today as The Game.

Customer Reviews:

Isabelle is the best.......2004-04-27

I'm a french girl leaving in L.A and I didn't know Isabelle Antena before this compilation.Not only her track (the opening one) is the best of the CD , but I discovered her best of album (l'alphabet du plaisir) and she's one of the greatest bossa singer I've ever heard.A real diva.

Good CD........2002-06-11

While I profess to know very little about music, I think I have good taste. I love this cd, every track from start to finish seems to find the right blend between groovy/relaxing. Would highly recommend.

Awesome.......2002-03-25

Another one of those trip-hop/jazz compilations that just won't leave the CD player. An eclectic blend of smooth cuts from Thievery Corp, Nightmares On Wax, and others, perfect for coming down from a fast night of drinking too much and sobering out. The song by Cool Blue (track 9, not 10) is just so chill, it sends shivers and Dub Tractor's "104 Dub" has that ambient groove to it...way cool.

Excellent!.......2002-03-12

This CD has been in almost constant rotation in the CD player at our house since purchase. It flows really well, each song is very different, but very interesting, and they all seem to complement each other. Can't wait to try the other ESL offerings.

Sizzles, fizzles, then sizzles........2002-02-06

I was interested in this track as I knew of Batu and some of the other artists featured. But to be honest, the only tracks I listen to on this album are the first two. The Isabelle Antena track is incredibly smooth while the Batu track seems to teleport you back in time to Brazil in the 70's early 80's. But from then on up for a while the album goes into a 70's sort of lounge feel, which isn't really bad considering that's the way the album's supposed to go. Just not my cup of tea.

So if you're looking for something like the first two tracks, where are heavy Bossa Nova/tropical feel, you get it in the first two tracks only. Otherwise I'd recommend Jet Society instead - and if you have that, Boss-a-Troniq (1+2), Brazilectro (1+2) or Hedkandi's Serve Chilled Volume 3. The rest of this album is solid with some ups - notably Shantel and Thievery Corporation's own track in it.

I've got the original music (including v2 and v3), the books (the best is Heitland's The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Book; still in print);
the 22 VHS tapes issued in the early 1990's (a haphazard collection issued in no particular order of episodes that boasted famous guest stars). Can I please get the whole series on DVD? I have not seen Mother Fear toying with Illya (The Children's Day Affair) in over 40 years.

At LAST the complete series ORIGINAL soundtrack, the wait is over!.......2005-07-12

Many of us have always thought The Man From UNCLE had the best music for a TV series ever, and this three double CD release confirms this. Wow! I'd be just happy with one CD, but having SIX (three double CDs packages) is absolutely out of this world, I mean, a lifetime wait come true.

Indeed, this is an unbelievable collection of three double CDs packages with the complete series soundtrack, and I mean the complete music, not a tune is missing.

And this is the ORIGINAL Man From Uncle music. Let me stress the point: this is the four years ORIGINAL soundtrack with the original recordings as they were heard throughout the series, not a no-name orchestra doing personal versions of the stuff. The audio transfer is very, very good, the music from late episodes is even in stereo.

Each individual CD carries over 70 minutes of music. All in all there you have the four TV seasons main titles and all, absolutely all of TMFU unforgetable music.

This is not a chronological release, meaning, all CDs have a mix of music from all four TV seasons. Volume 1 is heavier on early TV seasons stuff, fans of Jerry Goldsmith will love it. Those of us who prefer what Gerald Fried and later Richard Shores did with TMFU music, then volume 2 is mandatory. If you are a fan, you can't miss any of these six CDs. However if buying all three double packages is too much for you, you must go with Volume 2, no questions asked. Volume three is the weakest of them as it brings "suites" and a whole CD with "The Girl From Uncle" soundtrack, but you have a bonus "Open Channel D" beeper.

Each package is gorgeous, each with a glossy color booklet with extensive liner notes with details on how each tune was written to a specific TV series episode and how it was used onwards. You have bios on the composers, on how the recordings were made, even an overview on how many instruments were available in each of the years the music was recorded.

So, throw away your Hugo Montenegro Man From Uncle CD, this is the REAL thing.

perfect compilation!.......2000-04-11

Truly, one of the best things Blue Note has done in years has been the "blue" series of compilations released with all different moods and themes. Whether its "Blue Bacharach" "Afro Blue" or in this case "Blue Breakbeats", this series has made for some of the best listening around in jazz. Blue Breakbeats vol 4 is my favorite of them all. I can't find one low point on the disc. The whole record flows imaginatively from song to song, building in energy and creativity, finally ending on a song ("this is soul") summing up not just the disc, but the whole series as well. I definitely have to say that the standout tracks are "Woman of the Ghetto" by Marlena Shaw, whose lyrics are so profound and are delivered with infinite emotion; "Bring Down The Birds" is a track by Herbie Hancock that funks like no other. (Did you really think Deee-Lite could come up with that bassline?) My favorite track is one that brings back a lot of memories...Three is the Magic Number. It grooves, is forever inspiring, and has found its rightful place in postmodern's history, being sampled on one of the timeless hip-hop masterpieces of the late 80's/early 90's : De La Soul's "3 feet High and Rising". Overall, this collection is as funky as they get, and we should all bow our heads and pay homage to the funk gods, for it is they who give our life a little groove.
