Customer Reviews:
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.
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.
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.
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
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

EPICS THAT DO NOT DISAPPOINT.......2007-05-14
WHAT A BRILLIANT IDEA TO TAKE HOLLYWOOD'S COLLECTION OF HISTORICAL EPIC MOVIES, EXTRACT THE BEST PORTIONS OF THE SCORES AND COMBINE THEM FROM THE DAWN OF MAN TO THE RECENT PAST. I PARTICULARLY ENJOY THE SUITES FROM GLADIATOR, BRAVEHEART AND THE VIKING. THE REPRODUCTION OF THESE SCORES BY THE CITY OF PRAGUE PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA AND CHORUS IS BRILLIANT, AND THE RECORDING WAS EXCELLENT. I ONLY WISH THERE WERE EIGHT DISCS INSTEAD OF FOUR TO COVER THE VOLUMES OF SCORES THAT COULD NOT BE INCLUDED. LET'S HOPE FOR A VOLUME II.
Interesting selections . . ........2006-12-15
This compiiation album makes an excellent gift for that person wanting to discover great, epic scores. I'm surprised, however, that Vangelis' Alexander is included in this one. Not bad, just surprised.
The reason I give this album 4 out of 5 stars is because of the swashbuckler section. How is it that CutThroat Island - one of the greatest epics in history - was scrubbed out of the list? Pirates of the Caribbean is included on the selection but nothing from Debney's masterpiece?!
Yes, that is a huge compilant. If you haven't discovered CutThroat Island, I suggest you get it then you'll understand my frustration. Still, this album is a great buy and worth looking into!
"Epics featuring The City Of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra ~ 60 years of film scores".......2005-09-07
When I think of the "Golden Age of Hollywood", many composers come to mind...you gave the usher your ticket in the theater and sat down, knowingly you were going to get your moneys worth...when the curtain opened and you heard those first few notes...you sat back, watched and listened as the film score and orchestra worked their magic...now we have the ultimate from Silva Screen Classics "EPICS:THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD ACCORDING TO HOLLYWOOD", featuring a four disc set of the essential film scores of the past 60 years...covering several decades right and up to the present 2005.
There are compilations and then there are "Compilations" beginning with a classics that even the youngsters today recognize...sweeping scores that capture the drama, mystery, adventure, action and romance...one great cue after another, it doesn't get any better than this...many nominated and winners by the Academy for Best Original Score...
Silva Screen Classics as usual, has put quality into this 4-CD-Set featuring The City Of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus conducted by Kenneth Alwyn, Paul Bateman, James Fitzpatrick, Mario Klemens and Nic Raine. Recorded in "Dolby Surround" with the new technology of "HDCD", this is a "film-score-buffs" dream, one to treasure now and years to come...this collection is aimed directly at the "Serious Film Score" music fans and collectors...Silva is as always, perfect in every way...just the way we like 'em!
Total Time: 4-CD-Set ~ Silva America 1170 ~ (9/6/2005)

A good value.......2007-05-17
I wasn't expecting to have 4 discs for this price, and the music is a quality selection of film music, giving a good scope of the genre, and a very listenable transfer.

A mixed collection of movie music.......2006-02-23
For the price, this CD is a great bargain. The musical selections, as you might expect, are mixed in quality ranging from extraordinary to so so, the balance being worthwhile and interesting. Sonically the CD is excellent.

Album Description
This album is the work of a Gangster: not just any gangster mind you, but an unliving, unstoppable, undying power that keeps the very center of his time piece ticking. As seconds, minutes, hours, and days fly by, time remains still for Blaze. A victim of gang violent, turned rotted corpse with his mind on avenging his own death through total annihilation of those who had a hand in robbing him of his once mortal life. His rage and anger echoes from the speakers like a blast of a sawed-off shotgun at close range leaving all who hear it riddled with shell shock. Physicians and scientists alike are baffled at the very idea of this walking, animated dead man, and although there is no information to back it up, officials believe that the center of his re-animation is brough about by the blood-soaked and bullet-vented clock he was buried with. His recordings have also been somewhat of a mystery as well, drying up in record stores across the nation, and becoming completely out of print unitl now with the release of this essential collection of Blaze's early years in musical madness. Join the Dead Man himself as we turn back the hands of the clock and take a closer look through time at how the legacy of this immortal G all began.
Customer Reviews:
Blaze.......2007-02-25
There's no possible way I could ever give this album any less than 5 stars. "1 Less G In Da Hood" was practically the soundtrack to my senior year of high school. I remember seeing Blaze live at the "Hatchet Rising Tour." All of these memories are amongst some of the greatest I've ever had. Now onto the music! The album begins with the same intro to Blaze's first EP and contains every song off of the EP minus "S*** Talkers." I used to have that EP so I knew most of the jams anyways. Blaze's voice in unmatchable. If you're into gangsta rap, this is some of the finest you can find. Now onto "1 Less G...." The original version had Jumpsteady as a preacher talking about how great it was that Blaze has died, yada-yada-yada, that's not on here. Instead it kicks straight into "Grave Aint No Place." I was glad to hear that ABK's verse was still here. I know there have been some problems with ABK and Psychopathic, so it's good to hear that they didn't delete them or anything. The only songs missing from "1 Less G..." on this version are the intro, "Str8 Outta Detriot" (an ode to NWA's "Straight Outta Compton"), and "Hatchet Execution". Why they didn't include those tracks is beyond me. I really wish they would have considering the fact that the original version of this album is so hard to find and mine is all scratched up. Next you get 3 new tracks, which are all great. All in all, this is a great release if you no longer own Blaze's first two cds or if you're like me and were unable to take care of the originals. I just wish they wouldn't have taken out any tracks. Highly recommended!
Juggalos--BUY THIS........2007-01-25
Okay, Blaze Ya Dead Homie, also known as Colton Grundy, The Undying. Blaze jumped on Psychopathic as a friend of Twiztid, bringing with him longtime homie ABK as well. From the beginning, most juggalos were at a loss as how much we liked Blaze. There were about 50% that hated him, and another 50% that thought he was fresh. The main thing about Blaze is that his style is not really horrorcore rap in any traditional sense--more like old-school Gangsta rap with a horrorcore twist (the twist being that he presents himself as a man gunned down in a gang shooting 11 years prior, and is now back to his old evil ways, but as an undead, immortal).
If you ask me, that's pretty damn original. That, and the fact that this guy can flow like the river runs, is enough to make me a Blaze juggalo.
But one thing you have to know is that pretty much every song on the album has either the same, or similar, lyrics. But that is THE POINT. Understand that, or you won't like Blaze.
This album is the original Blaze debut EP and his first LP combined, with some of the more pointless tracks removed, and three very fresh new ones added. There are too many tracks on this album to review every one, but the highlights are "Real G S***", "I Go To Work", "Grave Ain't No Place", "Casket", "Juggalo Anthem (AWESOME track)", "Nasty (Hilarious, and very disgusting)", "Hood Rats", "Maggot Face", "Momma I Ain't Changed", and "Garbage". Any juggalo that passed on buying the original EP and LP while they were still in print should pick this up.
Rereleased From the Casket.......2006-07-01
Blaze Ya Dead Homie is dead. If you ain't figured that out, he's a thug who was gunned down 11 years back and now has been resurrected to run with the Hatchet.
For y'all who can't stand that type of creativity, then just do what the title of Shaggy 2 Dope's LP says. For y'all juggalos who can feel this, it's a classic. Basically the original 1 Less G in the Hood, along with the self titled EP, are like impossible to find. They're sold on EBay for like 100 bucks a pop.
So it was only right that Blaze rerelease them as one album. The early Blaze classics are all here (except for a couple). "Casket", "Nasty", "Grave Ain't No Place", and "Juggalo Anthem" are all on here along with other cuts and 3 new songs.
The three new ones are "Look Out"(featuring Lavel), "Mama I Ain't Changed", and "Garbage". The last one is far from its title and is actually pretty fresh. "Look Out" was featured in the video game 25 TO LIFE and "Mama I Ain't Changed" is about Blaze's relationship with his moms. The only thing I wished they could have done different on this album is put Blaze's version of "Dead Body Man" on here. I ain't seen it on any CD's yet and it'd be fresh if it could be.
Other then that though, this was another fresh release from Psychopathic Records and everyone's favorite dead homie, Blaze.

Album Details
Digitally Remastered Double Anthology of the Pop and Soundtrack Composer from the 50's and 60's. Perhaps his Best Counterpart of Today Would Be John Williams. A Film Maker Could Always Rely on Mancini to Deliver a Composition that Hit the Mark for a Film and Conveyed Exactly What was Required and More. He also Filled the Role of an American Mantovani, Recording 'muzak' Versions of Popular Hits. He was Handsome, Personable, but Most of All, Well Respected for his Craft.
Customer Reviews:
not enough Galway.......2003-10-02
There are only four songs with James Galway. The way this recording is presented is misleading and buyers should be aware that this is NOT a joint effort between these two great artists.. I was totally disappointed. I think Henry Mancini is wonderful but was expecting to hear a collaboration. So if you're looking for flute music this isn't it. However it's a great collecton of Henry Mancini's work.
Too Good to Last.......2000-03-03
I heard this on PBS. Galway and Mancini may be two of the most talented musicians of our century. Galway for his complete mastery of the flute and Mancini for his ability to arrange , produce and in this instance direct the orchestra while Galway performs. They do several duets of a comical nature as well. This is important because it is one of Mancini's last efforts prior to his unfortunate passing.

A "Regular People" Review.......2007-03-20
So I was on a Renaissance kick for a while and picked this up, first of all, great value. I enjoy listening to a few of these every now and then but can't take too much at once, check out the previews and if you interested, go for it!
Not stilted but powerfully alive.......2005-02-24
My idea of stilted is to sing these madrigals in the phony, glee-club RP style endured for so many years, that made precious, quaint curiosities of them. The Elizabethan pronunciation on this CD is an eye and ear-opener. We may appreciate how much of that speech actually endures in regional accents in both the US and UK. More importantly, this CD brings us the sounds of the long-forgotten English human beings of the Renaissance, people who drank, fought and screwed, who brought us Shakespeare and the King James Bible. I love this recording.
Better at Italian than English.......2003-07-25
A stilted style and even more stilted attempts at Renaissance-English pronunciation make the English Madrigal disk a terrible disappointment. All emotional content -- the mellow, lumimous melancholy with flashes of fire that characterizes English music at its best -- has been drained in this attempt to kill, skin, and stuff these madrigals in order to present them as museum pieces. The pronunciation problem is particularly galling -- if these songs are going to be made incomprehensible to modern English speakers, where, then, is their cultural home?
The Italian pieces are presentable, enjoyable, and sung with delicacy and a fine sense of the artifice of the Italian madrigal. Although this recording can be moving, these pieces are performed more with reverence than with love. These are well worth hearing, but the French ensembles sing these with a bit more feeling. Try, say, Ensemble Clément Janequin.

SOUTH AFRICAN CONNECTION.......2004-04-02
This soundtrack is off the cuffing chains. Check out track 1 by Cappadona from the WU TANG. Track 5 by Monalisa is also wicked. Track 11 by UGK ft Keith Murray, hey the list is endless. Mobb Deep with Up North Trip... Oh my god. Pity soundtracks we get lately are not as tight. ALUTA KONTINUA (Struggle Continues)!!!
pretty Good.......2004-02-09
I dug r. kelly's "Tempo slow"&also the track he wrote for the Isley Brother's "Let's lay together".which has a strong O'jays vibe going on there. but I gotta say Joe's "What Your Man won't do" stole the Soundtrack.that is still a on point track.
HOT soundtrack!.......2000-06-14
This soundtrack is HOT! My favorite song is "Time To Shine" by Lil' Kim! and Mona Lisa. I LOVE IT SOOOO MUCH AND I LOVE LIL' KIM.
Good.......2000-06-04
This soundtrack LP is off the hook. All the artists came to work on this joint. The movie and the LP dropped at a good time 96 when a lot of dope tracks came out.
This CD is da bomb.......1999-08-14
When I first saw the film I knew the soundtrack'd be sweet, and ever sice I brought it it's been stuck in my player. A few of the songs are slow and smooth, like Time to shine, which has a nice mixture with Lilm Kim & Mona Lisa. Some of the songs like Winter Warz make it to my best hits list, and Funky sounds by Lil Bud & Tizone is Phat. So's Freak It Out by Doug. E. Fresh and Maintain ny Erick Sermon. There's something for everyone, and dependin on how you feel, you can change the tunes to suit you. If your feeling mellow, just stick on Let's Lay Together or Don't give up, but if you're out for some pain & pleasure, go for winter warz or Maintain. Anyways this is a B*****n' album

The barest glimpse of John Williams.......2006-08-15
John Williams is one of the world's best guitarists, but you'd never know it by listening to this album. He basically plucks out the melody. I think I hear more complex playing in the background, but if that's what it is, it's mixed so as to be barely audible. On the other hand, it's very nice background music. I hope brisk sales support Williams' more serious efforts.
Maybe it'll grow on me.......2004-07-28
If I were not a guitarist myself, I would find this collection very very charming. Certainly the selections are beautiful, and Williams is renowned for one of them: Stanley Myers' "Cavatina" from THE DEER HUNTER. It's just that for me this recording does virtually nothing for either the guitar or the lovely pieces selected for this rather peculiar alteration. I'm just not sure that this kind of project, where a virtuoso SOLOIST is brought in to ACCOMPANY an orchestra (Perlman and Yo-Yo Ma have done similar recordings) is a winner; not even five percent of Williams' prodigious technique is anywhere to be heard and he just sounds so irrelevant. (I'd usually expect to hear this kind of thing from Liona Boyd.) That being acknowledged though, the melodies ARE perfectly lovely and Mr. Williams HAS throughout his great career done many brilliant recordings of dense and difficult music that leave one's mouth agape. I suppose he's earned this little vacation.
Very Good!!!.......2002-09-15
I like this CD very much, I have looked for it for 5 years since I listened its MP3, I got it now, thanks!
disappointing.......2001-04-24
While this album is pleasant enough, it is more orchestra music than classical guitar. John Williams is a great classical guitarist, but the guitar part on this album could have been played by any competent guitarist. If you want nice background music, this album is ok. If you want classical guitar music, look elsewhere.
Williams' Winning Style Captures Film Scores.......2000-08-25
If you like film music, this CD is for you; if you like guitar music, this CD is for you. John Williams brings his guitar virtuosity to bear masterfully on the scores of a number of popular films, which span a period of 60 years.
The use of the guitar gives a different sound to number of the selections, and shows that a good piece of music will shine, no matter what the instrumentation.
