The guy was damn ingenious with a guitar, but not half as industrious as the folks who've packaged and repackaged his posthumous material. First Rays of the New Rising Sun, however, is an attractive assortment of "spiritual, very earthy" late recordings that surfaced in the '70s via The Cry of Love, Crash Landing, Rainbow Bridge, and War Heroes. Hendrix appeared to be in transition between flamboyant showman and serious musician personas at the time (meaning his work, had he lived, might have been twice as meritorious and half as fun), and that makes many of these tracks all the more interesting. --Steven Stolder

5 out of 5 stars JIMI'S FINAL ALBUM, FINALLY RELEASED HIS WAY !.......2007-03-20

After guitar god Jimi Hendrix died, he released more albums than he did when he was still alive. Control of Jimi's music fell into the hands of attorneys who saw the opportunity to turn a fast buck, and quickly released this excellant music chopped up into several different albums (Rainbow Bridge, Cry of Love, War Heroes, etc.,etc.). After much litigation and several years, control of Jimi's music was given to Jimi's father and sister. They formed the Experience Hendrix record label and went to work. The first task at hand was to put together First Rays of the New Rising Sun, Jimi's title to the double-album he was putting the finishing touches on when he died. Through interviews with the producer, engineers, and musicians who worked on the project, they finished the album according to Jimi's specifications. The music on the album is sophisticated, energetic, and precise. Hendrix fans will recognize most of these songs. Freedom, Angel, Dolly Dagger, Roomful of Mirrors, Isabella, Hey Baby(New Rising Sun), and the beautiful Drifting are all highlights. Like The Beatles leaving behind the cute mop-top Beatlemania era with Rubber Soul and Revolver, Jimi seemed to be breaking away from the psycadelic wild-man theatrics of his early days, and getting down to the business of creating serious music with a conscious. You will find some of Jimi's best songs, vocals, and guitar playing on the aptly titled First Rays of the New Rising Sun. No Jimi Hendrix fan should be without it.

5 out of 5 stars Cry Of Love.......2007-02-16

Back in the 70's I wore out my vinyl copy of Hendrix's Cry Of Love Album. Songs like, Drifting and My Friend have been floating around in my head for all these years and I had tried to find a copy of CRY Of Love on cd several times with no luck. Well, here it is under a different name and with some additional songs ! These are some of the best cuts Jimi Hendrix ever recorded and the music sounds as good today as it did when I was a kid. Absolutely great stuff.

5 out of 5 stars A must-have. It's as simple as that.......2006-12-20

This is the geniune article, folks: The tapes that Jimi was working on before his untimely death. Seventeen songs, and all but two (Beginnings and Stepping Stone) are must-haves for any serious Hendrix fan. Of course, it's got the lovely, oft-covered ballad Angel, which has quickly become a Hendrix standard and is one of his best songs, perfect lyrics, perfect melody, perfect instrumentation... it's all there. A masterpiece. And it's not even the best song on the disc - I'd go with either the title track or Drifting, a low-key ballad that is one of Hendrix's more underrated. Rockers In From the Storm; Freedom; Izabella and Roomfull of Mirrors are perfectly complimented by the ballads (Night Bird Flying; the aforementioned Angel; Drifting) and the funk songs (Ezy Rider, another favorite; Dolly Dagger). And then there's the hilarious, wah-wah'ed Belly Button Window. Hendrix's last recordings have been repackaged several times, but this is the one to go to - it's probably what Hendrix would've approved of, unlike the Allen Douglass releases. Hendrix's music was taking an interesting turn before his premature death. If you're curious as to how a fourth studio album would've turned out (and really, who isn't?), this should satisfy you.

4 out of 5 stars Wonderful Treasure.......2006-07-17

This is a treasure chest full of early unreleased Jimi. These songs really show the heart and soul of Jimi Hendrix as a thoughtful songwriter. As always, the guitar is wonderful and amazing; but there's something peaceful in even the most scorching of solos on this disc. Enjoy this wonderful collection of songs that illustrates Jimi's command of the blues and how he was able to stay true to it's roots or help it blossom into a rock 'n' roll explosion.

4 out of 5 stars Jimi's Version.......2006-05-13

"In 1994, Hendrix's own handwritten track selection for First Ray surfaced and was reprinted in the french magazine Folk & Rock (November 1994). Surprisingly it was never used when attempts were made to complete the unfinished project in the years that followed. Hendrix only completed a song list for three sides of the double LP, and wasn't sure where to place the track "Night Bird Flying". With a darker-colored pen, he seemed to indicate that it should be the second song on side A. Hendrix's track selection for First Ray of the New Rising Sun was:

Side A: Dolly Dagger, Night Bird Flying, Room Full of Mirrors, Belly Button Window, Freedom.

Side B: Easy Rider, Astro Man, Drifting, Straight Ahead.

Side C: Drifter's Escape, Comin' Down Hard On Me, Beginnings, Cherokee Mist, Angel."

The above and any other quotes in this post are taken from the book, "Black Gold the Lost Archives of Jimi Hendrix" by Steven Roby.

The album is refered to above as First Ray instead of First Rays because Jimi at first was going to call it First Ray of the New Rising Sun. Another quote from Black Gold:

"Billy Cox worked on the unfinished album, and recalled the time when Hendrix asked him about the correct wording: "He asked me, 'Is it the first ray, or the rays?' I said, 'I don't know. He said, 'What do you see when you get up in the morning? When you look over the horizon do you see one ray or rays?' I said, 'I'd have to check that out.'

Hendrix would seem to have had a cover for the album in mind too...another quote:

"There is also evidence that Hendrix may have had a cover in mind for the release. On September 17th, 1970, he sketched out various faces to form the shape of a cross, with his own face in the middle. The right arm of the cross had faces of white people, including J.F.K. and Hitler and two women and a baby. On the left arm of the cross was Martin Luther King, Jr., a black woman with a crown, an African woman, and a baby. On the bottom shaft, Crazy Horse, Geronimo, Cochise, two women and a baby represented Native Americans. Above Hendrix's head, the top shaft of the cross showed Buddha, Genghis Khan, a Japanese woman, and a Chinese baby, representing the Asian Peoples."

I like this CD and gave it 4/5 stars. But knowing that there are existing track listings by Hendrix out there I tend to wish they had tried to stay closer to the song orders he had chosen (Of course Jimi might have made many changes to those song orders before the album was completed).

Since these days most people can make their own CDs I would probably arrange a version (for my own listening pleasure) to look something like this:

Dolly Dagger
Night Bird Flying
Room Full of Mirrors
Belly Button Window
Freedom
Easy Rider
Astro Man
Drifting
Straight Ahead
Drifter's Escape (Can be found on the CD South Saturn Delta)
Comin' Down Hard On Me (Can be found on the Hendrix box set)
Beginnings
Here He Comes (Lover Man) (Can be found on South Saturn Delta)
Angel
Hey Baby (New Rising Sun)
Stepping Stone
Izabella
Earth Blues
In From The Storm

Approximate CD time = 79 minutes

Since the only version of Cherokee Mist I have heard is on the Box Set and has simliar patterns to that of In From The Storm I left it off. I left off My Friend since it was a leftover track from 1968. For those who are into having an instrumental open the album there is a spacey guitar instrumental called The New Rising Sun on the now deleted Hendrix CD compilation Voodoo Soup...I just wasn't sure how to fit it in due to space limitations. Pali Gap is also a track that could have been on the album as it was recorded during the same time period. Of course everyone's version of this album would probably be different (including Jimi's).

I could go on and on about this but I guess the bottom line is I like the music on this album very much I just wish it could have somehow stayed closer to Jimi's vision...

5 out of 5 stars The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra needs a guitar player!.......2006-11-09

Granted, they only need it for one composition (the last one, "The James Bond Theme") but still, without the guitar it's just not the same. Barry didn't compose this one so I suppose it was a bonus and I shouldn't complain, really. The rest of the music on all the CDs is fantastic. Some of the stuff I had heard before without realizing who had composed it. Very enjoyable, to say the least.

5 out of 5 stars Persuaders Theme!.......2006-03-02

Buy it for the Persuaders theme, probably the best TV theme song ever written.

5 out of 5 stars A Variety Of Classics!.......2005-12-06

John Barry has been composing film scores for over forty years and this is only scratching the surface of his productions. Never mind that the entire set is recorded by the Prague Philharmonic; it's pure to Barry's themes. While John Williams compositions ("Star Wars", etc.) are wild and flamboyant and Jerry Goldsmith's (Hoosier's, etc.) are mood pieces, John Barry crosses over all barriers and is amazingly diverse. Barry has recorded most of the exciting James Bond themes, melodramatic classics like "The Lion In Winter' and moody theme hits like "Midnight Cowboy". He also tugs at the heartstrings with compositions from, "Somewhere In Time", "Frances" and "Out Of Africa". He varies his themes for all types of films and few composers capture it so well.

There is over four hours of music in this set with a colorful and informative booklet.

5 out of 5 stars Incredible Barry Collection.......2004-03-11

Any fan of movies will absolutley love this collection. Being a movie buff I couldn't wait to get this boxed set. Knowing Barry from all the James Bond movies, I did not realize his involvement with so many others. The orchestra is magnificent in all these themes. I'm listening to "High Road to China" right now and I'm drifting in the clouds in a Tiger Moth with Tom Selleck and Bess Armstrong. If you are familiar with a movie it will definitely have you seeing it again, if not the scores are still beautiful. Any fan of classical music will be pleased as well. Travellers will defintitely enjoy it for a long drive. I know from when I use to travel that music like this made the miles float by faster. I highly recommend these four CDs even if you just know a handful of the songs.

5 out of 5 stars " one of cinema's greatest composers...John Barry".......2001-07-06

This collection of four compact discs...are worth their weight in GOLD! Barry creates visual moods for each film he scores...romantic, sentimental, action, adventure, suspense and mystery...the list could go on. Strings, brass and lush-velvet arrangements overlay each cue in his distinctive style of legendary scoring...we have ~ "John Barry:The Collection", Silva Screen's release traces 40 years of film music, featuring "The City Of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra" ~ conducted by Mr. Nic Raine (outstanding)..."Crouch End Festival Chorus" ~ David Temple, Choir Master...perform 56 selections, over four hours of symphonic suites with a full orchestra sound...all individually wrapped-up into one neat package...just the way "film-score-buffs" like 'em!

Must ask the following to take a bow ~ James Fitzpatrick (compilation producer), always in their pitching, Reynold da Silva (executive producer), Nic Raine (conductor, arranger, orchestrator & associate producer), a tremen!dous asset to every project he undertakes...and the man who made it all possible...a legendary icon always leading the way in film scoring ~ JOHN BARRY!

Total Time: 258:76 on 56 Tracks ~ SSD-1128 ~ (2001)

You might try other albums from Silva Screen, all worthy of a good listen ~ "The Essential James Bond" (SSD-1034)..."Bond:Back In Action" (SSD-1100)..."Bond:Back In Action 2" (SSD-1119)..."Zulu" (SSD-1095)..."Raise The Titanic" (SSD-1102)..."Walkabout" (SSD-1120)...check out my reviews on amazon.com/music.

    Album Description

    "Montana Skies"--cello and guitar--This CD is an homage to the "road trip". Not only the literal road trip, but also the metaphorical "road trip" of life. We've learned a lot on both so far, but mostly we've learned that it's never about the place, but always about the people. Much of this music was written and arranged on our cross country tour in the spring of 2004 and draws from the sights and sounds that we absorbed as we crisscrossed the US. We hope you'll enjoy the ride...

    Customer Reviews:

    5 out of 5 stars Innovative.......2007-05-19

    This duo is one of the most innovative and creative ensembles performing today. The cello/guitar combination is refreshing and inventive. Rich textures and imagery abound. Great music; highly recommended.

    5 out of 5 stars Expressive, Engaging, and ExtraOrdinary!.......2005-03-10

    With beautiful sound, Montana Skies flawlessly combines cello and guitar into melodies that depart from the ordinary classical. One can feel the passion they have for their music. The music resonates within one, long after the last note. I find myself humming the tunes all the time! There is something for everyone on this album. In these stressful times I use it at work and in the car to relax and detach from the hectic day-to-day. Aptly named "Chasing the Sun" brings some sun into my day every time I play it.

    5 out of 5 stars Must-have album for acoustic lovers!.......2005-01-23

    This album is the follow-up to their self-titled debut, and it is just as fun, melodic and enchanting as the first...only better. Truth be told, I am a musician myself have begun touring with these guys, tagging along wherever I can as their pianist....that's how much I enjoy their music and working with them! This CD is a great addition to your acoustic collection and a great way to discover Montana Skies. I keep this CD in my car and find myself turning it often on a long drive.

    4 out of 5 stars Great, but no prize.......2002-03-31

    The selections from the Ring trilogy, Friends in need and Fallen Angel were excellent, however, some of the special request such as joxer the mighty, seemed a little bit rushed. Wasn't that song on Volume 2 already? Where was M'Lila's song from Destiny, or the music played During the first Kiss in "The Quest"
    The cd has its good points, personally "It's Over" from "THAB" with its haunting melodies portraying the consequences of war.

    5 out of 5 stars Xena;Warrior Princess volume six.......2002-01-09

    I am so happy that the last and final cd has come out, now my collection is complete. I am very sad for the show ending, but I am glad to still collect things.

    5 out of 5 stars Great Collection.......2001-12-25

    Well, I have them all by now, but this last one is a great collection, with the added bonus of the music from A Friend In Need.
    Just another fine addition to my Xena collection!

    5 out of 5 stars Exceptional.......2001-11-30

    I am a fanatic and devoted Xenite.I have a huge problem:i can't stop listening to that cd,since the first time i listened to it,which means 1 month!That cd is really exceptional and i think that every true and genuine Xenite should buy it!It's really good!I was moved when i heard the Fallen Angel part.I was passioned when i heard the Ring Trilogy!I was astonishing when i heard the bonus cues that were included,especially the cue from The Quill Is Mightier(fishin part),oh,i was completely satisfied!
    Though,there is a complain:i can't understand,why after 6 cd's,the producers don't do a cd including cues like:M'laila's song,the cues from the Bacchaen festival,music from Deja Vou All Over Again,where in the end,Gabrielle says to Xena those wonderful words,or even the scene of the kiss in The Quest!That,i can't understand it!
    Last, i believe that whoever likes LoDuca's music style,should buy this cd.
    Pay attention to the 22 cue:Pas De Deux Femmes.It is one of a something and whoever remembers what's the scene of this song,will agree with me!Mmmm!

    4 out of 5 stars A MIX OF THE BEST, THE WORST AND THE MISSING.......2001-11-29

    To all truly Xena fans this CD is a must-have but have some lacks... Fun (comedy episodes music) scores destroy the the great combination of FALLEN ANGEL, THE RHEINGOLD TRILOGY AND I FRIEND IN NEED. In the first selections LoDuca creates spectacular high level music good enough to be played in a Symphony orchestra concert. The others selections have easy-to-fill-space western cowboy music instead of put M'Lilas song of DESTINY, Amazon's climbing trees of ADVENTURES IN THE SIN TRADE and NAJARA vs XENA music that would be gladly accepted by us. I doubt the company will launch a next CD but if they'll do this track and another valuable more must be there and the adittion of some famous characters quotes like "I have many skills" from Xena.

    Album Description

    A legendary jazz artist noted for his daring improvisations, Dave Brubeck is also a composer of many works for performance by classical musicians. He studied composition with the French composer, Darius Milhaud, who encouraged Brubeck to compose using the language of jazz as well as classical music. Brubeck himself notes that perhaps his best compositions were created `at the moment for the moment'. Both Chromatic Fantasy Sonata and Two-Part Adventures take their inspiration from the music of J. S. Bach. Rising Sun is taken from the 1965 album Jazz Impressions of Japan while The Salmon Strikes is a tribute to pianist John Salmon, with whom Brubeck has enjoyed a long association and who performs on this recording. In 2003 Dave Brubeck was elected into the American Classical Music Hall of Fame. For the past decade Dave Brubeck has relied upon John Salmon's expertise in preparing new works for publication. The pieces on this recording vary in mood and style, and Dave is extremely grateful to John Salmon for his artistry in interpreting this music in the way he conceived it. Since 1989, John Salmon has been on the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Booklet includes personal liner notes by Dave Brubeck.

    2 out of 5 stars Mediocre, but an overall poor value.......2006-03-18

    This was my first Brubeck disc. The music, as others have noted, feels undistinguished overall, and though I approached the Chromatic Fantasy Sonata with high expectations, it was disappointing, seeming to wander aimlessly without any sort of unifying idea. The sonata--the disc's major work--lacks any melodic cohesion and only passingly refers to Bach. The pianist plays with a consistently harsh and loud dynamic, and the music itself is less interesting than a jazz improv session. Fans of classical music and Bach in particular (whose own masterful 'Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue' is used as a starting point for Brubeck's sonata) will be highly disappointed by this sub-par disc.

    2 out of 5 stars A Major Disappointment.......2005-05-25

    I enjoy much of Brubeck's serious music, particularly his choral compositions. Thus all the greater the disappointment associated with this recording, a failure on many counts:

    (1) Weak composition. As pointed out by Scott Morrison, the "main event" of the release, the Chromatic Fantasy Sonata, sounds like a student work. For me, the rest of the pieces were mediocre, except for the cuts "Brotherly Love" and "Rising Son."

    (2) Poor performance. John Salmon, and friend and admirer of Brubeck's, certainly hits the notes. However, his rubato is not only excessive, but used in the wrong places, converting so-so pieces into "oh no!" pieces. And many of these are supposed to be Bach-like. Followers of Glenn Gould should avoid at all costs.

    (3) Diluted value. For a single, non-star performer,free program notes provided by the composer, and only 55 minutes of music, this was a cheapie to produce, and it shows. Naxos should be selling it for $1.98 and be ashamed of itself considering some of the other fine CDs it has sponsored.

    3 out of 5 stars Modestly Interesting 'Composed' Music by Brubeck.......2004-03-31

    It pains me to say this, because I've been a fan of Dave Brubeck's for nigh on fifty years, but this CD of 'written out' or 'composed' piano music by him is generally tepid at best. The so-called 'Chromatic Fantasy Sonata,' which takes as its starting point Bach's 'Chromatic Fantasy,' sounds like the efforts of a student. The melodic material is undistinguished, the counterpoint labored, the rhythmic interest (which one would expect to be a high point with Brubeck) is almost non-existent. Add to that a kind of pale Hindemithian harmonic framework and you get an entirely forgettable essay in sonata form. The four movements are 'Allegro molto,' 'Chorale,' 'Fugue' (a really dull one, although "correct" in terms of the polyphony), and 'Chaconne,' (also dull and labored).

    Five Pieces from 'Two-Part Adventures' is also based on Bach, this time the two-part inventions. It, too, is pretty tame stuff until we get to the last two, 'Eleven Disciples' and 'Chasin' Yourself,' which finally SOUND like Brubeck and have some life to them.

    'Tritonis,' is based on, you guessed it, the 'diabolus in musica,' in this case two chords a tritone apart. It started life as a guitar and flute duo, then was rewritten for use by Brubeck's own jazz quartet. The solo piano version retains some of the guitar riffs and has some melodic interest, but mostly seems to meander without much important going on. It sounds like improvisation, but not the always-surprising kind one associates with Brubeck. It occasionally tries for grand effects using arpeggios and contrary motion but it doesn't come to very much.

    'The Salmon Strikes' was written for this CD's pianist, a long-time Brubeck acolyte, John Salmon. It is lively and energetic and has lots of 'strikes' (in the sense of sforzando chordal attacks) which capture one's attention. This 3-minute piece and the one that follows it are my favorites on the CD.

    The CD concludes with 'Rising Sun' which, Brubeck's booklet notes explain, was inspired by a haiku of Basho: "A lovely morn! The summer night is gone./ How hushed and still is all the world/
    In wonder at the dawn." The quiet manner and use of fistfuls of ninth chords, spiced up with blue notes, makes this an effective impressionistic piece.

        Album Description

        Heralded internationally as an outstanding artist, trumpeter Jens Lindemann has enlisted the talents of The Canadian Staff Band's 30-piece ensemble for his second Marquis recording, Rising Sun.

        Lindemann's musicality and virtuosity coupled with the warmth and skill of The Canadian Staff Band clearly demonstrate the brilliance of this collaboration. The music offers an eclectic mix of standard repertoire and original compositions, some of Lindemann's finest work to date.

        This musical journey takes the listener from Japanese flavoured pentatonic harmonies found on the title track, to fiery temperaments peppered throughout Slavische Fantasie, and goes on to soothe with the familiar sounds of classic Gershwin delivered in a unique Lindemann style.

        5 out of 5 stars Extremely Fine Trumpet Playing in a Very Eclectic Program.......2006-09-12

        This disc is somewhat in the vein of Philip Smith's CD titled
        My Song of Songs. Smith's disc is predominantly arrangements
        of Christian hymns and songs, while Lindemann's is secular
        except for two tracks. Both are recorded with excellent
        Salvation Army brass bands.

        Lindemann's sound, range, technical facility and breadth of
        musical expression are phenomenal. Trumpet players will be
        astonished at the level of control he has over his tone.
        Lindemann excels at selling each piece, whether it be a
        light piece or a substantial work such as Allen Vizzutti's
        new composition. Musical maturity is evident here. He is
        stylistically right-on.

        Lindemann has a very strong high range and uses it
        frequently -- perhaps a bit too frequently, but if I had
        the ability to generate excitement like that, I might do
        the same. It remains in good taste. Lindemann conveys a
        lot of joy in this recording. The use of fluegelhorn and
        piccolo trumpet add a variety of colors to his sound and
        keep the disc interesting.

        A special note must be made of the gorgeous piccolo trumpet
        playing in the Vizzutti piece. It is an effortless, full,
        and fluid sound. This piece alone is worth the price of the
        disc.

        The instrumentation of this project -- trumpet with brass
        band -- will limit the appeal of the recording for many. This
        is unfortunate, for the playing is on an extremely high level
        throughout and the music making transcends the instruments
        themselves.

        Very highly recommended.
