JBL Studio Monitors or equivalent.......2006-09-30

Without a doubt the highest quality recording I have ever heard. The liner info states that when Telarc, a label known for classical recordings, decided to branch out to other genres. They wanted a cd that would demonstrate the audio potential. They suceeded with Spies. Track 3 will rattle the windows. I especially like the credit for the F16 pilot. This recording is a must for any true audiophile.

1st heard this in 1990... and it's still a 'wow'... .......2005-11-13

Buddy of mine wanted to show of his car audio equipment and played this cd... along with some David Benoitt.. both CDs blew me away... nuff said, if you like jazz and want to test your equipment, get this cd... I did !

WOW!.......2003-04-15

This the best sounding cd on the planet bar none. There is a warning on the back cover from telarc records that suggest you adjust your audio equipment before attempting to play this cd. They are not kidding! Every track is fantastic! I first heard this cd from a friend of mine who had converted a home stereo to his car.(It was before the days of great car audio equipment).We listened to it in a parking lot of a stip center. Track 3 & 8 rattled and vibrated every window of every business in the entire strip center. Heed the warning from telarc records but buy this cd if you do not own it. It is simply amazing! Also check out-James Newton Howard and friends. It is just as crisp and clean and the friends he is refering too are all of the Pacaro brothers.Jeff Pacaro was one of the tighest drummers who ever picked up the sticks. Both of these cd's should be in everyones collection

Sub Par sound systems step aside.......2002-12-29

I originally heard this CD while browsing for some new digital equipment. This is what the salesman played and I forgot about the equipment! I listened to the beginning of the first 4 songs and I was floored. I immediately asked the artist and album title. I have played it so many times that I have a cd for the house, one for the car and one for work. You do not know what sound is until you hear this cd

Listen with your eyes closed.......1999-06-23

I always listen to this album with all the lights out and my eyes closed. It is the absolute best way to experience this record. I was first introduced to this group while testing out new speakers the last time I upgraded my system. I drove to the first CD shop I came to after leaving the stereo shop and purchased this disc. Every song is distinctive in regard to the style and the substance. I agree with the previous review, if your system can handle track 3, it should be able to handle anything. The digital recording gives great seperation, not only side to side, but gives an overwelming feeling of depth to the music. Give this disc a try.

Album Description

Composer Frank Lewin has incorporated folk songs and popular music from various ethnic traditions in his scores and films, television programs, and plays, as well as in his opera Burning Bright (Albany Records: TROY 469/71). Each tune was adapted to the expressive requirements of the particular subject. Occasionally original music was composed in a particular style, as "source music," i.e. music heard within the action of a scene. Two eminent performers of the recent past, both now deceased, open and close this collection: violist Walter Trampler and fiddler Johnny Cunningham. In between, artists of equal merit perform music from a variety of sources. Frank Lewin has written scores for films, television programs, plays, and historical outdoor dramas. Among his concert music are song cycles and choral works, including a requiem which was first performed in 1969, during a memorial service for Robert Kennedy in the chapel of Princeton University, and Music for the ! White House, for which he conducted members of the Westminster Choir and the United States Marine Band. The composer was a member of the faculty of the Yale School of Music from 1971 to 1992, teaching composition for film. During this period he also taught the course Music in Modern Media at Columbia University's School of the Arts.

Sounding like the misbegotten child of SHADOWY MEN ON A SHADOWY PLANET and MAN OR ASTROMAN, J.A.T.S. should best be listened to while wearing a camouflage wetsuit whilst surfing the coast of Monster Island...and that's a huge compliment. I mean it.

Double-oh-reverb and secret agent twang.......2002-10-12

The subgenre of guitar-based instrumental music known as "Spy-Surf" gets a fairly well-rounded workout on this trio's 1998 disc. This Canadian group recorded the CD in Japan--in seemingly low-fi, reverb-drenched surrondings with minimal production by lead guitarist Mark Brodie. Though apparently recorded in the late 90's, there's no sound herein which would indicate it was made after 1966 or so--this would have fit right in as the soundtrack to a Bond or Matt Helms movie.
The songs are a fairly good cross-section of various rockin' instrumetal styles: a couple of surf-like uptempo rockers ("Spy Party" or "Do the Creep"), lots of minor key themes conveying the darkness and danger of spy action(such as "The Man from E.N.I.G.M.A", "Midnight Rendezvous" or the title song), and a couple of choice covers of 60's intrumentals. (These are the Lee Hazelwood-penned "The Hearse", made famous by the best surf band ever from Boulder, Colorado...the Astronauts, and Bobby Fuller's "Our Favorite Martian" (here dubbed "Our Favorite Saboteur").
The performances are smooth without being overly polished, the sound treads the line between an echoey demo tape and a retro-low-fi atmosphere, and the overall mood is consistently interesting even though the disc almost seems at times to be made up of a series of varations on a theme. There's one apparent soundbite from some hokey american radio play of the 30's or 40's leading off "Into the Shadows", and an even hokier (if that's a word) spoken word intro and outro to the disc which are not nearly as entertaining as the band seems to think they are. The time spent on these two pieces would have been better served by coming up with a few more memorable songs to add to the menu.
Other than this complaint, the disc is recommended to anyone wishing to add a bit of secret agent vibe to their next surf party background music or soundtrack.
