At Fillmore East

by: The Allman Brothers Band

Release Date July 06, 1998
I got this album about six months ago, liked it immediately and like it even more now. I love every song, although this is not the full version - which I got and think is much better cos it has some extra tracks. I think this is easily one of the best albums i have ever heard, ever! I recommend this to anyone who loves good music!

Grapefruit Moon: The Songs Of Tom Waits

by: Southside Johnny & La Bamba's Big Band

Release Date September 08, 2008
In the states at the moment so have managed to pick this up early. Tom Waits songs really suit Southsides delivery and La Bamba's arrangements do not dissapoint. Tom Waits duets on wlak away and this is a standout.

Highly recommend to Southside and Tom Waits fans.

Cease to Begin

by: Band Of Horses

Release Date October 15, 2007
Another limp wristed sappy American band who's vocals suggest that they're not even close to getting over it, whatever it is.

The second track(and perhaps nine)is ok simply by virtue of it's dynamic shifts/guitar line but the rest is tiresome, immature and a little pathetic. These are grown men, singing like they still haven't got over that 'high school love'. How many more bands can there be that employ some whinny voiced singer and write songs about there bad fortune.

Bands like this make acts like Pete Doherty look good.

Also, it sound's like the shins, without any of the stylishly crafted songs.

Rubbish.

The Only Choral Album You'll Ever Need

from: Victor

Release Date October 06, 2003
I've always enjoyed choral music but never really been sure what it was I was listening to, apart from the really well known tunes, some of which, shamefully, I recognised from adverts or films. Many well known ones are included here of course, such as "O Fortuna" from Carmina Burana, the "Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves", the "March of the Toreadors" from Carmen; "Ode to Joy", "Zadok the Priest" and of course chunks of "The Messiah".

This double CD with well over 2 hours of music and 33 samples is the perfect way to discover (and put a name to!) other beautiful pieces of music. I was particularly pleased to hear Allegri's "Miserere" which has always sent goose bumps up and down my spine, and the "Humming Chorus" from Madame Butterfly.

Over the Hills and Far Away: The Music of Sharpe [SOUNDTRACK]

from: Virgin

Release Date April 29, 1996
Before watching Sharpe I had never heard of John Tams, and quite frankly my music collection was the poorer for it! This album is a fantastic mix of score from the shows and traditional folk songs of the period performed by Tams and his mate Barry Coope with an amazing guest performance from the wonderful Kate Rusby. A must have for all fans of John Tams, Kate Rusby, Sharpe and great British folk music!

This Land of Ours

by: Karl Jenkins, The Cory Band, Cantorion

Release Date October 22, 2007
Well done to 'Only Men Aloud' (aka Cantorion) on winning the BBC TV 'Last Choir Standing'! It was great to hear that they had recorded this album under their other group name of 'Cantorion', and what a great album it is! If you love the unique sound of Adiemus and Karl Jenkins, then you'll love this album. Recorded together with the excellent Cory Band - one of the finest brass bands in Britain - there's so much to enjoy. I loved watching the great 'Cantilena' music video on YouTube too!

The Only Opera Album You'll Ever Need

from: RCA Victor

Release Date March 31, 2001
The tracks on this cd are excellent and well worth the money. I get worried about the packaging of this sort of disc though because it reminds me of Tesco's attempt to sell wine to the masses by renaming a mediocre chablis as 'Good with meat' or whatever. If this was called 'Fine Opera' or 'An Opera Sampler' then I'd be a lot happier but the dumb approach of 'The Only Opera Album You'll Ever Need' makes me cringe. Once again though: the music is very good and the performances are excellent on the whole.
