5 out of 5 stars American Music of Hope and Glory.......2007-04-09

Although I have known about Sacred Harp Music for many years, this album utterly overwhelmed me in its power, beauty and expression of pure American strength and faithful surety. I grew up in the churches of Christ, one of the few American denominations that uses only a capella four-part harmony vocal music in their worship services. Shape notes were known to me since I was able to understand a musical staff, and we used shape notes for each note on the scale (a few more than The Sacred Harp Tradition). Alas, over time, the immense power and beauty of true Sacred Harp music was "homogenized" into congregational singing that remains quite beautiful, but no longer has the vigor of The Sacred Harp tradition. (The churches of Christ still, to this day, occasionally have "Sings" - an all afternoon singing festival with food and fellowship, as do Sacred Harp "Singing Classes" today). This album above all speaks - rather SINGS to the immense faith of Frontier America, and the absolutely majesterial beauty of music well-sung from the human heart, which is, of course, The "Sacred Harp". To any who want to experience a new (and very old) musical tradition, this recording will be one that you will never forget. All choral music singers and admirers should own this marvelous album. (Having a copy of the "1991 Sacred Harp Hymnal" in hand will make your enjoyment all the better!)

5 out of 5 stars Unbridled spiritual energy.......2005-01-01

Anyone who saw "Cold Mountain" and was struck by the vitality and energy of the hymn singing in that one brief scene in church will be immediately impressed with this stunning album. The album's only flaw is that, unfortunately, it does not include that hymn that was in "Cold Mountain" (it is titled "I'm Going Home").

Otherwise, it is pure joy to listen to. The singing is full of that same raw passion that makes it sound so primitive. I've heard other albums where the sound is polished, concert-hall like, and as a result very dead. This is not that way; it moves and stirs as good spiritual music ought to.

This is a new field of music for me, even though I've sung in church choirs for years and listened to all kinds of classical music. Hearing this album makes me want to go find the sheet music and start singing it myself, it is so infectious.

3 out of 5 stars Sounds like they just wanted to destroy something beautiful.......2005-04-20

For me, Blonde Redhead at their best conjures images of deranged looking Japanese scientists in pristine white lab coats hovering over my hospital bed, grinning like Cheshire kittens whilst allowing the hypodermic needles in their hands to drip some kind of poison onto the floor.

Let's put the Sonic Youth comparisons to rest by just saying that for one, Kazu Makino whomps Kim Gordon's ass as far as listenability goes, and for some that might be saying something. Kazu's ability to pitch her voice up into that weird hesitate-to-call-it-a-falsetto-but-for-lack-of-a-better-word thing she does is a big part of the magnetism of Blonde Redhead's unique sound.

The best moments on this record come when Blonde Redhead are at their most twistedly melodic. The overdriven miasma of guitar that is "Distilled" will lope through your head for days like a wounded deer; "Suimasen" is surgeon's background music for a back alley abortion; "Futurism vs. Passeism Pt. 2" is a floaty, repetitive sound collage of guitar spackled with spoken word snippets doctored up to sound like they were pulled from the AM radio waves.

The worst moments on this record comprise the entire 6:00 or so of the title track, "In An Expression of the Inexpressible," and the rest of the album is fairly hit-or-miss.

They're not the most consistent of bands -- as others have said, they lend themselves more to mixtapes than anything else. As ridiculous as it seems to suggest, a 'Best Of,' done well, would encapsulate them better than any of their albums proper. As it is, though, they are one of few bands out there worth exploring despite their inconsistency.

Their latest, "Misery is a Butterfly" has very little guitar but is still quite listenable and considerably poppier than this record. If "In An Expression..." didn't fly your kite, try "Butterfly."

5 out of 5 stars groovy.......2004-11-30

I dont think the Sonic Youth comparisons are really accurate, this band has a sound of their own. I would recomend it to anyone that likes My Bloody Valentine, Stereolab or (yeah) Sonic Youth

4 out of 5 stars Blonde Redhead's growing pains.......2004-08-24

Might be described as a transitional album. Worth owning for the song "Distilled" alone. It feels rougher to me than other BR albums -- much less poppy than Damaged Lemons and more awkward in the vein of their first two. Still -- excellent if you enjoy their sounds.

5 out of 5 stars good, but lacks something.......2003-11-11

This album was made in the transition between when the group abandoned bass and before realizing a fuller sound using additional musicians and studio trickery with "Melody of..." and their latest gem "Misery Is A Butterfly". Subsequently, it's quite an intersting record, with alot of good ideas, but it lacks a certain fullness that prevents it from being their best as other people have put it. As I said, the actual songs are mostly pretty good---intriguing dischordant melodies, distant detached thin vocals, left-of-center electronics and percussion, and an overall feeling of 'the inexprssible' and disconnectedness--but I found myself wishing there would be more layers to fully realize the potential of these songs. The production is too sparse for my tastes. Maybe I'm just more of a newer-Blonde Redhead fan. There is something of a no-wavish meets art-punk contrast in the arrangements that makes it cool, but if you're looking for a bigger and bolder version of Blonde, I recommend 'Misery Is A Butterfly' instead.

4 out of 5 stars Glorious!!.......2003-05-12

This is just an incredible album, like all of the rest of their stuff. It took me awhile to start enjoying them. The dissonant guitars made me think they were biting Sonic Youth. But after a few listens I realized that they are very different. While Sonic Youth at their best relied on distortion and improvisation, Blonde Redhead writes non-traditional and dissonant melodies and uses lots of unique time signatures. But there's not a whole lot of improv there. I'd say they had more in common with Don Caballero than Sonic Youth.

If that sounds like your bag, get this record. It's wonderful, exhilarating, and totally unique. My favorite is the great drum line and cracking vocals that is track 4.

And if you have a chance, see them live. They are one of the best performing bands you'll ever see.

5 out of 5 stars Another Splendid Furtwangler Box in Original Masters Series.......2004-12-29

Let me start by saying it took me a while before I began to fully appreciate Wilhelm Furtwangler as a conductor. When I began collecting classical CDs, I realized early on that I preferred vintage stereo recordings to newer digital performances. However, historic mono recordings were a horse of a different color. I just couldn't select something that didn't sound very good as my one and only version of a given piece, even if it meant scrapping something as amazing as Furt's Beethoven 9th. But don't worry I have since come to my senses -- first, why own only one of a given work, and two, Furtwangler is indeed one of the master conductors of the 20th Century. And while I don't own dozens of his discs, I do now consider some of his recordings to be the best representations available (Schubert 9th, Schumann 4th -- see my reviews), despite the mono sound.

Anyway, recently I've picked up both of the Furtwangler Box Sets in DG's Original Masters series, and I certainly feel they were worthwhile purchases (and terrific values to boot). This latest set, "An Anniversary Tribute," features five discs of music and one interview disc (in German of course, rats!) in performances ranging from Bach and Gluck to Strauss' "Metamorphosen." However, serious Furtwangler fans should be aware that several of these selections have been available previously, and may duplicate their collection. In particular, there is a 1944 Bruckner 9th, most recently OOP on the Music & Arts label and fetching ridiculous prices in the Amazon Marketplace (thankfully, sanity is now restored), and a 1952 Brahms 1st available on DG 415 662-2, among others. Also of note, now that UNI owns both DG and Decca, there is a 1951 Schumann 1st with the Vienna Philharmonic that was originally released on Decca but is now included in this "DG" set. All in all though, this is another first rate set in the "Original Masters" series.

          5 out of 5 stars My Favorite Christmas CD.......2005-12-01

          This is without a doubt my favorite Christmas CD. Unlike traditional Christmas songs sung by "celebrities" - these renditions are timeless and classic.

          The transitions from beautiful orchestral arrangements to the pure nakedness of a single voice is the perfect platform for quiet, reflective meditation.

          5 out of 5 stars Superb, classical Christmas arrangements.......2001-12-29

          This two volume set is incredibly good. I came upon it in Target of all places. It looked like it might be good so I bought it and took it home. I was thrilled! The arrangements are terrific, the performers are top-notch, and what a variety! Everything from brass to voices to strings. One of my volumes mysteriously disappeard (I think my older son had something to do with it!) so I'm having to reorder it. I'm also going to get several as gifts.

          5 out of 5 stars You wont want to get rid of these........2001-09-15

          I've bought a lot of christmas CD's and these are some that I am most pleased to listen to, any time of the year. The songs are not the same old familiar Christmas songs rearranged, but nice arrangements of a variety of songs done so anyone can appreciate them, especially the classical listener.
