After he gained legendary status rapping on Doug E. Fresh's "La Di Da Di," it was only a matter of time before the world would clutch British-born Ricky Walters to its heart. Rick had already fancied himself a rabid storyteller (and a mighty good one) on Fresh's track "The Show," and Great Adventures became Slick Rick's novella. Not content with one perspective, Slick Rick often employed tag-team rhyming with himself as his own partner ("Mona Lisa," "Teacher Teacher"). His cautionary tales ("Hey Young World," "Children's Story," "Teenage Love") work much better than his freaky tales ("Treat Her Like a Prostitute," "Indian Girl"). Still, it doesn't take a musicologist to appreciate the complex rhyme schemes and scenarios of "The Moment I Feared," "Children's Story," and "Mona Lisa," and his slight accent heightened his distinctiveness. Despite lukewarm response to his follow-up--as well as a stint in the pokey--Slick Rick will always be remembered for his Great Adventures, an essential B-boy document. --Todd Inoue

The greatest stories ever told.......2007-06-05
How can we possibly forget about Slick Rick when we talk about great rappers? He is the greatest hip hop storyteller alive. Chlidren's Story, The Moment I Feared, Indian Girl, Mona Lisa, Kit(whats the scoop) and Teacher, Teacher further solidifies that claim. I guess you pay one hell of a price when you let TV and radio define to you what's hip hop. Aside from telling vivid stories, Slick Rick can also bring it to you on an MC level(Teacher, Teacher, The Ruler's Back) and can give it to you on a positive tip(Teenage Love, Hey Young World). Standout Tracks: THE RULER'S BACK, CHILDREN'S STORY(classic), THE MOMENT I FEARED(Slick Rick's finest moment), INDIAN GIRL(comical story with an ending that will leave you in stitches), MONA LISA, HEY YOUNG WORLD, TEENAGE LOVE, and TEACHER, TEACHER. Filler: NONE!!! Bottom Line: The Great Adventures of Slick Rick is definite requirement for any hip hop head who loved hip hop before it became S***hop. Slick Rick is not only one of hip hop's elite, he is also in the hip hop hall of fame. HANDS OFF ASSATA AND SLICK RICK!!!
A classic CD.......2007-05-22
The music does not sound dated. I had this cd many years ago, and lost it along, the way. I still love to hear these old songs again, and again. Slick Rick is very creative. The cd is a classic must have. But, it could stand to be remastered. The volume is much lower then the other music on my mp3 player.
Hot Garbage.......2007-04-30
Wow..wackest trash ive heard in a minute. How do yall think this cat is dope? Doesnt take alot of skill tow rite a rhyming story with no mettas or punches...
Go buy Some Gang Starr..some de la soul...some Wu...some gravediggaz..anything but this garbage
True Classic.......2007-04-24
This is a classic CD. I wish I could also find Dana Dane's CD for a reason price.
Sweet album.......2007-02-28
i am pretty sick of rap in 2007, so i go back to 88. it's great. i love it. simple, not too complex and not stupid. 5 stars for hip hop that i'll listen to all my life, even in 2234.

Six Decades of Film Music.......2007-05-13
This is film music for the classical music lover. The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra presents excellent arrangements of a number of classic film themes (although several pieces of the 56 film classics selected for this 4 CD set are not orchestral arrangements, but rather specialty arrangements). Besides great film composers such as John Williams, Elmer Bernstein, Ennio Morricone, and James Horner, classical composers such as Richard Strauss and Pietro Mascagni make an appearance. On several of the numbers the Crouch End Festival Chorus adds the human voice to the power of the full symphonic orchestra to create true movie magic. If you like the sound of a full symphony orchestra playing some of the most recognized themes ever written, you'll love these CDs.
Excellent collection with fine performances.......2007-03-28
Silva Screen Records, based in England, has been issuing some fine collections of film scores, more in one box than we have the right to expect. This four-CD box contains scores by many of the best writers, including Max Steiner, Bernard Herrmann, Dimitri Tomkin, Kenneth J. Alford (The Bridge on the River Kwai), Elmer Bernstein, Maurice Jarre, Ennio Marricone, John Barry, Nino Rota, John Williams, James Horner, and more. We can all think of additional film scores we wished were included, but then there's no way this collection could be all-inclusive. The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, supplemented by Crouch End Festival Chorus on some numbers, does a very competent job...The liner notes give the basic information without any commentary, and as far as I can see, contain only one error. Am I wrong or are tracks 9 and 10 on the fourth CD mislabeled? Track 9, which runs 7:33, seems to have the excitement of "Pirates of the Caribbean" (which I did not see) and track 10, which runs 4:22, the more sedate "The Girl with the Pearl Earring (which I also did not see). Listings seem to have them reversed.
"essential film scores from 1939 to 2004 ~ Incredible Music".......2005-05-16
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 "The Incredible Film Music Box", featuring a four disc set of the essential film scores of the past 60 years...covering several decades from 1939 through and up to the present 2004
There are compilations and then there are "Compilations" beginning with a classic that even the youngsters today recognize "GONE WITH THE WIND" (1939) (Max Steiner), sweeping score that captures the tragic history of the South during the Civil War, one great cue after another, it doesn't get any better than this, nominated by the Academy for Best Original Score...and closing on Disc 4 with "THE INCREDIBLES" (2004) (Michael Giacchino), the big hit in computer animation from Walt Disney & Pixar that once again pit Super-Heroes against the forces of evil...our family of five Supers prove crime doesn't pay, but box-office receipts do...gotta love it!
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, Bill Ashton, Paul Bateman, James Fitzpatrick, Mario Klemens, Derek Wadsworth, 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.
Some selections are missing, but when you think of what Silva has included, it is impossible to please everyone...was happy to see "TOUCH OF EVIL" (1958) from composer Henry Mancini, as I feel this composer deserves all the recognition that has been overlooked recently in the music world...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!

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!

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.
The Sound Track Since Bernard Hermann.......2006-07-25
This collection is bound to capture your heart and evoke a tin ear on successive tracks. I found much to like and some duds - easy to skip over.
Very good value.
Good mix of film music.......2006-07-02
Good mix of films!
I'm a big fan of this soundtrack music and will be looking for more CD's like this.
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.
Uplifts your soul, takes your mind into the heavens.......2006-01-06
I have been listening to great scores for many years and this collection is truly inspirational in so far as the choice of different scores takes you on a journey of listening pleasure matched by only a few collections.The price is incredibly reasonable for hours of listening pleasure. Don't pass this one up

Product Description
Mr. David has gone and done it again. He has come out with another fabtabulous, rock'n album for kids, and it is plumb full of crazy, original music that is influenced by really cool guys like Bob Dylan, The Beach Boys, The Beatles and Neil Young. As one reviewer said, "it's like Subterranean-Homesick-Springsteen, in an Octopus's Garden with Brian Wilson vibrations. Wacky wacky fun." With 14 original songs written by Mr. David, and a rip-roarin Mother Goose Medley, The Great Adventures of Mr. David takes children and their parents on a magical journey through the imagination to discover all the adventure and excitement that can be had in this fantastic, big old world of ours. And it rocks out!! Whether he's fighting a great octopus in the middle of a stormy sea in "In the Storm," catching a pop fly pearl from out of the sky in "Pearl," or wiggling like a crazy minnow in "I'm a Fish," Mr. David's freshly original songs inspire children to let their imaginations roam and break out of the ordinary. And, did we say? It rocks out!

THE MOVIE AND SOUNDTRACK RULE!!!!!!!!!!.......2006-06-12
I have always been into London's history and I LOVE the Great Mouse Detective because it's in London in the 1890's. I've have always pretended to be a second mouse assitant of Basil's to go on cases with he and Dr. Dawson. Now the soundtrack made it even more fun. I LOVE the Big Ben Chase on the soundtrack when Basil is in a life or death battle with Ratigan on Big Ben's hour hand. I still LOVE the movie and the soundtrack today and I'm proud to say that I'm 13 years old and I still pretended to do cases with two imaginary mice.(P.S. I'm watching the movie right now!)
Awsome Soundtrack! Quick Delivery! Get Up And Buy It Now!!!!.......2005-02-08
I've Heard Many Disney Soundtracks, But "The Adventures Of The Great Mouse Detective"Is One Of The Most Fantastic!!!! I Love This Movie So Much, And Now I Love The Soundtrack So Much!! I'm Only 12, And I Still Think This Movie And Soundtrack Is Awsome!! My Favorite Is The "Big Ben Chase", This One Is When Ratigan And Basil Are On The Big Ben Clock Tower And They're Battling!! Half Of Why I Like This Film Is Because Of The Music.This Is A Very "Great" Soundtrack,And If Your A Fan Of "The Great Mouse Detective",You Should Buy This Soundtrack!!! YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
I LOVE the Music!!.......2001-09-29
I think this soundtrack is the coolest because, you can
picture the movie in your head. I've always loved the movie, and I Love the characters in the movie. The music is thrilling and exciting. Henry Mancini tried to make you think that you are in the movie. This is a fun and thrilling soundtrack. BUY IT, YOU WILL LIKE IT!
Isn't this a crime!.......2001-08-31
To be honest, I have seen the case of this movie but I have not see the tape that it's on, but I think I have seen the movei just not for a very long time. This cd has both music it self and some singing. The music parts of this cd which has more of than singing was done by Henry Mancini (he was Music Composed and he conducted the music), I can't remember when this cd was made, think I might have been under 5 years old and now I am almost 18 years old. Here are the songs and music on this cd, Tracks 6, 11, 13, and 17 has the songs on them.
1. Main Title
2. Dawson Finds Olivia 3. Enter Basil
4. Enter Ratigan
5. Crushed Box
6. The World's Greatest Criminal Mind (sung by Vicent Price).
7. Unusual Foot Prints
8. Here's Toby!
9. Check Mate
10. Reunion 11. Let Me Be Good To You (sung by Melissa Manchester)
12. Ratigan's Plan
13. Good Bye So Soon (sung by Vincent Price)
14. Cat Nip
15. Big Ben Chase
16. Wrap-up 17. End Title: Good-bye So Soon Just in case you may have missed the songs. So this takes place in London, that's where Big Ben is. Could you think you would have a clock tower in your city or close too?
Mancini "scores" for mice what he did for panthers!.......2000-07-10
"The Great Mouse Detective" is a film that suffers with a slight split personality. Three fourths of the movie is typical cutesy Disney fare; the last fourth, featuring the battle between the good detective and the evil Ratigan is somewhat intense, possibly a little too intense for the very young.
Mancini's score reflects this. The main title is exciting and engaging. Vincent Price's solo turns on "The World's Greatest Criminal Mind" and "Goodbye So Soon" are hilarious and melodic, in a sinister way. As an earlier reviewer stated, the Melissa Manchester addition "Let Me Be Good to You" is quite provocative for a "G-rated" family film.
The "Big Ben Chase" is ominous and thrilling as the two rodents are involved in a deadly battle atop London's famous landmark. Mancini's music has never been more "on the mark."
While not up to his work on the Panther films or "Victor/Victoria," this is still a treat for his fans.

A fascinating look at a tortured genius.......2002-08-21
Naxos continues to do a wonderful job with its "Life and Works" series. Quite some time ago, we had a Life/Works of Mozart, one of Chopin and then two more, Liszt and Beethoven. he latter are even better packaged than are the earlier sets, with a thick booklet that offers us essays on the historical background, the position of the composer in his time, a look at the major works, a listening plan, recommended readings, personalities, a calendar of the artist's life, a glossary, and a discography. This booklet is worth the price of the set alone.
Now we have two more entries in this amazing series, again written and narrated by Jeremy Siepmann: "Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky" (8.558036-39) with a playing time of 4 hrs. 5 min. and "Johann Sebastian Bach" (8.558051-54) with a playing time of 4 hrs. 34 minutes. (Please see my comments on the Bach set on its webpage.)
Was there ever a sadder composer than Tchaikovsky? Siepmann practically introduces us to the child in his cradle and covers his 53 or so years of torment over his music, his sexuality, his impossibly hopeless marriage his strange relationship with Mme von Meck, and above all his music.
To make the recording more vivid, the producers have assigned professional actors the roles of the composer himself (Malcolm Sinclair), the women in his life (Karen Archer and Teresa Gallagher) and the men (Stephen Thorne and David Timson). There are many music examples (drawn, of course, from Naxos recordings), some of them considerably longer than necessary. For example, the "Sugar Plum Fairy" is heard at length to represent all of the "Nutcracker" score when several shorter samplings would have served the purpose better. But this has been true for the entire series, and perhaps the producers will rethink this aspect.
