Funny, funny, funny.......2007-06-27

If you love comedy you need this CD. Rodney Carrington is one of the funniest comedians today. I also purchased his DVD "Rodney Carrington: Live at the Majestic". This DVD is his "King of the Mountain" album but the fact that you actually see him acting out the show makes it that much funnier. My favorite part is the "Chicken Song". If you get the DVD (which I highly recommend) it will keep you laughing long after you see it. Trust me you will want to watch it over and over again......... I know I did.

Another Good Collection.......2007-06-19

This is another entertaining collection of countrified humor from a man who mostly has one thing on his mind; that is the thing that most men have on their minds. He is self deprecating and usually funny. That's enough for me.

Rodney is also known for his songs. These are usually scattered throughout his albums but in this one, they are all concentrated at the end. First come the live performances and then there are some repeats using studio recordings.

Its not a bad collection

Absolutely hilarious!!! .......2007-06-11

This is one of the funniest CD's and/or albums I have ever listened to. I heard these live on tour but, I still laugh like crazy. Also, Angel Friend is a very touching tribute to his good friend and fellow comedian Barry Martin. The song actually brought me through a very bad time and gave me hope when I lost my best friend.

Funniest Man In Comedy!.......2007-06-05

I've watched this dvd 5 times already and could watch it 10 more...you will laugh the whole time its on!

Rodney almost does it again........2007-05-21

This was really funny, but I don't think it was quite as funny as his earlier stuff.

Their second album and first for Interscope is almost wholly brilliant. Like Mogwai, Sigur Ros and a dozen others, TVOTR excels at making slowly-evolving tunes with vaguely anthemic choruses and lots of loud-soft dynamics. Unlike virtually any of those other bands, TV on the Radio mix a genuine and actual songwriting ability with their knack for finding sounds that appear to be "new." This record is crisper-sounding and incorporates more dance-based elements, but it's essentially a pop album. While the lack of the free web-released "Dry Drunk Emperor, a tribute to President Bush, is initially a bummer, the album percolates with enough pre-apocalyptic tension to satisfy anyone. In a Prince-pitched falsetto, the group sings "I was a lover/ Before this war," While throughout, the combination of melody and invention is always pitch-perfect (well, except on "Province" and "Let the Devil In," those songs sort of suck.) People of Earth: please make this band into total superstars and buy several copies of their album: one for the car, another for the office, etc. What we really need in our popular music is more weirdness, and more truth. --Mike McGonigal

Customer Reviews:

Play it loud!.......2007-07-11

Start at the first track, with its unstoppable beat, WILD horn hook, and impassioned vocals. If you make it through that without 1) blowing your speakers, 2) hitting the repeat button, or 3) running in the opposite direction, the rest of the album will reward you. It takes a few listens to unfold, but once you "get it" you won't want to stop hearing it.

You see, I tried, then I REALLY tried.......2007-06-02

I have to completely agree with what "Unlistenable" (callahan) had to say about this record. I have given it a try on long road trips, blasting on my home stereo, with headphones, etc. I don't get it. I WANTED to "get it". Even after "not getting it", I tried again.
I had read/heard so much about this album, that I figured it would be a pleasure/treasure.
Basically, it sucks!. No cohesion whatsoever-none.
"Wolf Like Me" is the ONLY stand out track, likley because it actually has some form of melody/riff. It is a very, very good song to add to any compilation you may be making for your summer mix. Do yourself a favor, buy THAT track on ITunes and skip the rest! The ONE STAR RATING IS FOR THAT TRACK ALONE!
P.S. I disagree with that other reviewer's comment likening this to OK Computer as being overrated too. THAT disc has plenty of great musical moments going on!

Different but good..........2007-05-26

I gave this album a couple of listens and was glad I did. It's original but I am not someone who gives bad music a pass just because it is different - it has to be good too. I am a little surprised that "Wolf Like Me" was the first single since that song seems sort of flat and boring to me, but "I Was a Lover", "Hours" and "Let the Devil In"(which was one of the only songs the Amazon reviewer hated) were all very good. And I can't believe everyone isn't raving about "A Method" which to me is an incredible tune(was someone channeling Brian Wilson?) that's worth the price of the album all by itself.

Not pop music.......2007-05-13

This is a refreshing change from the garbage the music indusrty is feeding us today. Good stuff!

Stunningly original.......2007-05-12

I understand that this album might not be for everyone. Even if I didn't like this however, I think I'd be forced to give it five stars just based on how unique this album is. Say what you want, but there is nothing out there that sounds quite like TV on the Radio.

But I do think this is an amazing album of incredible depth. It's a challenging and complicated masterpiece that must be unveiled over time to appreciate its full scope and vision.

TV on the Radio are one of the few bands out there right now that is committed to pushing music forward rather than resting on its laurels or giving themselves over to popular trends or familar sounds.

This is an album for people who truly appreciate avant-garde music and are looking for something that is remarkably fresh and exciting to listen to.

If you are looking for something more familar, I would look elsewhere.

Awesome CD.......2007-05-11

Have enjoyed this CD immensely with our four-year old. Great price for the quality. Thank you.

He started dancing as soon as we put it on!.......2007-01-09

My 12 month old loves this CD and happily bops away to the music (in the car he sometimes even starts singing!). We like it too and not being very well versed in Classical music, it is a nice mix for us.

Better than baby einstein.......2006-02-26

This is a great CD, with great music, at a great price. Everyone seems to love Baby Einstein, but I don't like the plinking music on those CD's, I like real orchestral pieces to stimulate my child. This is exactly what parents need, at a good price!

great music at a great price.......2006-02-02

I got this cd to use as background when putting my 18 month old to sleep and for car rides. So far it has not made it out of the car. The cd is wonderful. The first song is the Luftansa airline comercial song (that is what my husband calls it) and is beautiful. I didn't think my husband would enjoy the cd at all but he doesn't mind one bit listening to it, he actually will put it on himself when we get in the car. My daughter loves it and will often start nodding her head back and forth to songs. I actually listen to it even when my daughter is not in the car. The music is soft and relaxing but not boring. It is also one of the only cd's that my in laws don't mind listening to when they are in the car with us.

I only paid like $4 here on amazon for it and I gladdly would of paid more for such a great cd. Its a great cd for such a great price!

A Wonderful CD for all ages.......2002-11-03

My whole family has enjoyed this CD. It is very upbeat and easy to listen to. I think there is something for everyone on this one.

Amazon.com

This commemorative reissue of music from 2001: A Space Odyssey combines the Also sprach Zarathustra theme, various Johann and Richard Strauss segments, and a ballet suite by Aram Khachaturian--all of which prove how much Stanley Kubrick's film attempts to avoid the soundtrack clichés of most science-fiction movies. Instead of the expected sci-fi effects, there is a more ironic application of music that would be otherwise incongruous to the celestial settings. Here, "The Blue Danube" complements scenes involving weightlessness and descending spacecraft, while Gyorgy Ligeti's creepy "monolith" music connotes Armageddon more than interplanetary exploration. The tracks play as they had appeared on the original soundtrack release back in the '60s, but there is also previously unreleased supplemental material and a dialogue montage entitled "HAL 9000." --Joseph Lanza

Customer Reviews:

great music, great reissue.......2007-04-16

This is a great collection of music and I love the great mastering job that was done with this. The inclusion of the tracks from the original MGM soundtrack release are a great bonus. The liner notes include interpretations of the film and the music that are insightful.

I noticed that the music in the movie is mixed in surround sound, it would be great if they could release this on DVD-Audio or SACD surround. I'd buy it again!

fantastic.......2007-03-11

I have the old lp release of this music, what an incredible array of classical music, topped off by my personal favorite piece of music in the world, the blue danube waltz. Let yourself be carried away in deep space by this incredible score.

whoa........2006-09-04

"Atmospheres" was enough to make me buy this album. just try to imagine what eternity might sound like. okay, now you know exactly what Atmospheres is. wow. who else could having captured the feelings that are in this score? this is above talented. this is above genius. this is above avand garde. this is too good to be labeled as anything at all.

Great Music for Halloween, very creepy.......2006-03-17

I bought this CD to use for a haunted house program, the music will creep you out.

Bleakest of Futures..........2005-10-08

The atonal, unsettling atmosphere of much of the music of Ligeti is fitting to the bleak vision of a human future reigned by nothing but cold technology and of humans drained of emotions except for the deepest animalist fear originating from our inner reptilian brainparts which have not changed for over millions of years. The incongruity of Johann Strauss' lovely 'An der schönen blauen Donau' with the cold technicality of spacefaring as depicted here could not be more complete, but what a perfect find on Stanley Kubrick's part! It makes the uneasiness and confusion even greater. And then, to top it of, the complete and flabbergasting irony of using Richard Strauss' Fanfare for the 'rise of Man' in his 'Also Sprach Zarathustra': what a great destiny for 'Man' indeed, this bleakest of bleak visions of the future!
As a soundtrack for '2001: A Space Odyssey' this music together on one album is just great.
And besides, this soundtrack has indeed, like so many others I guess, made me aware of the genius of Ligeti, which otherwise might have gone unnoticed for me.

Brother Dave Gardner contains multitudes. For starters, this Southern comedian was also an ordained Baptist minister as well as being a drummer and a singer. Judging from this pair of albums from 1959 and 1960, his live shows were amazing performance pieces. His truly expansive routines included Shakespeare parodies, swinging musical passages, and funny digressions. There's also room here for cool-cat philosophizing, riffs on outer space, and preacherlike inflections. Brother Dave can spellbind the listener with his freewheeling rambles one minute and tell a riveting story the next. The routines feature countless hilarious voices and characters, not to mention jaw-dropping vocal sound effects. Incredible charisma and warmth imbue the entire CD. Brother Dave was an artist who was liable to draw from just about everything and anything and somehow make it all work. It's hard to imagine what '50s audiences made of this hipster from Tennessee. Country music legend Chet Atkins produced both of the original records. --Fred Cisterna

Customer Reviews:

One of a kind humorist from the 60's.......2007-05-12

It was gift for my Father. He saw Brother Dave in person several times years ago. Dad enjoyed the gift, for the old LP's he had were so scratched from wear, one could barely understand them. Brother Dave came along at a time when segregation was still in vogue and political correctness wasn't heard of. His stories might offend some, but there is no cursing and no one is a target of tastless humor.

Dave Gardner.......2007-04-11

Brother Dave is one of the best comedians ever. His humor is a little deep but is still the best. If you want good clean humor, this is the man to get.

Origins of "different" humor.......2007-01-16

Takes me back to the times my family spent listening to comedy that was, unknown to them, over the kid's heads.

Rejoice dear hearts / Kick thy own self.......2005-09-05

I was a fan of "Brother Dave", back when he was plying the clubs. I owned most, if not all of his "ROCA Alblims" that over time disappeared. I was happy to get these CD's and have enjoyed them greatly. I look forward to getting others that are available. His humor, imagination, sense of reality and use of our language is not equaled by today's crop of comedians.

Rich in Southern Humor, this CLASSIC is Timeless!.......2004-01-11

Having not heard a Brother Dave recording in many, many years, I was delighted to run across this CD. WOW!!! Amazingly STILL FUNNY, this guy was truly an original. His rich southern humor was on the cutting edge in the late 50's, yet it remains timeless. Had me actually laughing out loud. The characters he created, the weird sounds he made, the "think about it" jokes should tickle most everyone's funny bone...even if they "ain't from the south"!

Tchaikovsky and Tchai.......2006-07-17

I wondered what do Tchaikovsky and Tea have in common, and then I remembered that in many countries across the world - the word for tea is "tchai". That aside, yes, this is a refreshing blend of music, perfect for tea time - relaxing and reviving at the same time, and quite a bit dreamy.

Teatime...or otherwise........2005-11-02

I've owned this for years & play it often. It IS perfect for teatime, as it makes pleasant background music which you can talk over....but is also great w/volume up in car w/it's rambunctious side and incredible instrumentation. A really nice blend of Tchaikovsky's pieces.

Tchaikovsky's Dreamier Music: A Soothing Album.......2005-07-31

"Set your Life to Classical Music" is a fine album series that feature beautiful classical music for background music of any occasion- weddings, barbecues, breakfast, beauty sleep, bathtime, reading a book, romantic dinner, massages you name it. And indeed many classical pieces are perfectly therapeutic sessions in themselves. This album features the more intimate-sounding, soulful, sweet and relaxing tunes of Tchaikovsky. He did compose heavier and more dramatically intense music- his later symphonies, his Overtures and operas. But here we hear no Russian fire or harshness. Instead we are treated to the charming Mozartian style works of the Roccoco Variations and the Piano Trios. The disc also features the Andantino from his Piano Concerto No. 1 - and that piece is almost a Chopin Nocturne, with beautiful soft rubato and dream-like qualities. Included here is also the Pas De Deux and Odette and Siegfried theme from his ballet Swan Lake, lilting and graceful as the dancers movements themselves. The dance divertissements from Nutcracker round out the ballet segments with charming allure. The melancholy String Quartet and Serenade For Strings is here as well and not to mention the beautiful, wistful excerpts from the ballet Sleeping Beauty, his greatest ballet. The Panorama and Vision of Aurora played with delicate strings and sublime technicality. This is indeed a "refreshing blend for body and spirit" and is in fact perfect to listen to while drinking tea cosnidering you drink tea. I have tried it and believe me the experience is very soothing and refreshing. Try putting this on in your miniature CD player with headphones, then go out into an outdoor, natural environment, a park or a backyard garden or patio, and drink tea or read a book and you will find this is a fine companion.

Beautiful.......2003-08-25

One of the best aspects of Tchiakovsky's music is the ocnsistency: he just DIDN'T compose any bad pieces. And with such consistency, you can compile a CD such as this.
THis CD gives you a proper taste of Tchaikovsky's style, and is a very nice sampler of some of his most famous works. This CD lacks some of his more energetically volatile works, but it thus lives up to its title. It is extremely relaxing, and soothes you as you listen to it. The works are melodic, and the orchestras and soloists are superb, especially in the Serenade and the Rococco Variations. I highly recommend this CD for anyone, even if you aren't a huge classical music fan.

Tchaikovsky's Most Enchanting Tunes.......2000-08-19

Like the title suggest, a good companion for tea time. Or any time. The music of Peter Ilych Tchaikovsky is beautiful, lyrical and full of a grace and charm that parallels to Mozart's. A great collection of music by the legendary Russian composer. He had a gift for making music in a style that did not sway away from Russian folk music but that added a Classical perfection, or better yet a Romantic mastership. Who can forget the Sleeping Beauty suite. Here is the Panorama scene.. gorgeous music. I recommend the entire ballet score. The Nutcraker and Swan Lake are also here. The Piano concerto no. 1 in B, Andante Cantibile and so much more. I garauntee any listener satisfaction.

columbia, please offer us the surround version.......2007-07-21

Many of you may or may not remember Quadraphonic. It means four channel stereo. I use the word stereo because any two adjacent speakers could create the phantom center channel which today is played by the front center speaker in a typical 5.1 set-up.
"Bozos" was available as an SQ encoded record album or a discreet 4 channel 8-track tape. I have both. The SQ does'nt have really useful separation but the tape is awsome; blowing away the stereo version in at least four ways. Yes the hiss ls pretty loud (3.75 inches per second with 8 tracks per quarter inch)but the mix is great. Columbia (sony) should offer this as a 4.0 o 5.1 version but that means someone would have to do some hard work and research. We couldn't have that. Audience too small? Surround sound CD or DVD fizzled out?
The stereo CD is available. After 30 listenings it gets even better.
Good things and peace to you all. Remember Lana Clarkson.

From one Bozo to another.......2007-05-15

I heard this one back in 1977 - 78. It brings back a lot of great memories. At that time, the use of Stereo and special sound effects is what made Firesign Theatre so unique and funny. You can close your eyes and be right in the middle of the action. I recommed it to help relief some stress.

Fudd's Law.......2006-10-19

The first side/track of this album is hilarious, but it starts to slacken a little on side/track 2, because the material is more suited to visual than aural presentation. Recommended.

Stuck in my head.......2005-09-12

I don't think I've heard this album from top to bottom in 20 years but barely a week goes by when some line or other from it doesn't pass through my head and often out my mouth without my even realizing the source. Firesign's take on the "Brave New World" future was--like nearly everything they've done--a bit too accurate as prophesy. The world we live in today, from Bush to Wal-Mart to Prozac to what today is the anniversary of, comes straight out of this album and it's a wonder back then that more of us didn't see this as inevitable. This work predates a movie actor as President by many years; Arnold as governor of California was a foregone conclusion to these guys in 1970; Most cable TV and film look like Firesign pieces.

Some smart arse once said that in decadent and declining times the only job left for intelligent people to do is satire. No, this album isn't a laugh riot, and it's not intended to be. It's a very humorous, witty, and often brilliant commentary on the end of an era. This group will be remembered in the distant future as one of the best chroniclers of the Fall.

Standard Firesign Fare.......2005-08-04

Probably the geekiest of the Firesign material I've listened to. The story line has a futuristic setting, so computers, holograms and such play a role. While not quite up to pare with "Everything you know is wrong", its interesting and should be part of every Firesign fan's collection.

Average customer rating: Oh! the album this could've been as a sophomore release, it's damn good Lack the skills to pay the bills. Unique. Growing better, but the band still manages to dissapoint.

TVOTR is a highly original group from Brooklyn, NY characterized by vocals that range from crazily high-pitched to group chanting and a pop-based sound that's rampantly experimental but always melodic. Unlike their school-of-'78-in-'04 peers such as the Rapture and Interpol, TVOTR's music is as rooted in blues, free jazz and gospel as it is the post-punk canon or contemporary electronic music. This makes Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes far more interesting, naturally; the purely vocal "Ambulance" is novel and exciting as anything by Björk, Spongehead Experience or Pere Ubu. With lyrics that impressively, and un-preachingly, tackle issues of race and war, this finalist for 2004's Shortlist Competition easily ranks among the best albums of that year. --Mike McGonigal

Album Description

Pop, rock, and art songs about discordant living, misrepresentation, life, afterlife, love, and love "after hours". Scandalous. Undeniably catchy songs with incredible production, arrangements, champion crooning, and a host of extras. "They sound like Pere Ubu meets Belfegore meets The Tar Babies meets a way less chilly Notwist with a smidge of Metric thrown in"--Jane.

Customer Reviews:

Oh! the album this could've been.......2007-02-03

First off, let me say how much I appreciate the ingenuity in this album. The Wrong Way is almost flawless. An announcing horn section leads you through the intro to this album. It's the only song on the album to which I would give the vaunted five stars. Staring at the Sun is the next song and the first song which displays the problems with this album as I see it. The beats don't go anywhere as adventurous as the introductions. In each song there is such an intriguing introduction. We enter into a new world, such as the one Alice in Wonderland was introduced by the rabbit. When we first enter these songs, the possibilities seem endless. Where will they take us? What horizons are approached by these intriguing artists who have presented us with something so new, so different. Unfortunately, we learn as we progress through the caverns that the highlights are all in the intros. This was all corrected, in my opinion, in The Return to Cookie Mountain. That may be the less flawed album. I listened to this album many times, trying to understand the abundant critical praise. I never understood it. Did these guys show promise...Heck yeah, but they weren't there yet, as Cookie Mountain proved. This isn't the album with which to start your TV on the Radio collection. Many people loathe reviewers like me who will only provide one star or five, but I don't normally feel inspired to write an review for the two to four album or book. This album is the could've been, should've been that Cookie Mountain was. It was upon hearing Cookie Mountain that I thought back on what was missing with this album. Maybe they should've added a more substantial bridge to the heart of the song that took us away from the workings of the song, then brought us back. Maybe this is why, other than the classic single The Wrong Way, I never made it past two to three minutes on any of the other songs. Cookie Mountain is the real deal though, and it has earned the praise the critics gave it, and it has earned repeated plays in all of my music devices.

as a sophomore release, it's damn good.......2006-12-22

it's very rare that any band as celebrated as this one survives their own press to make a truly great 2nd album. TV on the Radio has a fascinating arc ahead of them, since they don't fit into any real genre. they're not indie rock, they're not emo, and they're only vaguely post-punk. but they swoop through experimental fun in a manner that's reminiscent of Bowie, synthesizing genres until you're not sure what you're listening to. for me, that's part of the fun: trying to get into each song with no judgements about the genre it's supposed to evoke. however, my genre preferences show through in which tracks i enjoy - unlike the other reviewers, King Eternal grabbed me instantly because i love rhythmic and repetitive noise music and have some roots in the goth aesthetic, whereas Dreams was simply a 'eh, it's definitely got a distinct hipster vibe.' Wear You Out delighted me because it instantly reminded me of Gang of Four, though i couldn't quite explain why, but Ambulance evoked merely an 'interesting...' from me. i do enjoy the trip through it, though, and while i only find King Eternal something i'd listen to over and over on its own, the album shows a lot of thought and evolution, which i find impressive for a 2nd release, and which makes me happy to listen through it as a whole.

if you decide to purchase this release, don't go into it thinking that you're going to get a rapid-rockin' type of thing. go into it knowing that this is a pastiche of influences for a band trying to live up to its own hype.

Lack the skills to pay the bills........2006-12-14

OK, I get it, they're not SUPPOSED to be a straight up rock 'n roll band and as such I should probably ignore the fact that they rock about as hard as...oh, I don't know...Coldplay. Fine. That's forgiven.

But the rock is not the only thing that's missing from these lads. Try as hard as you may and if you can find one shred of genuine fire and passion in the music you've either looked a lot harder than I have or you have a lower set of expectations. I'll bet every last dollar in my pocket that the latter is the case. None of these songs ever get to the boiling point. Sometimes they simmer but most of the times they're the equivalent of watching a potato cook.

I can (barely) hear some interesting influences (I bet they like Fela Kuti, Sly and The Family Stone, The Gang Of Four, Suicide and maybe Spoon) but these boys lack the skills to touch any of these people (except Britt Daniels that is).

The clumsy guitar diddling, the morose drumming and the uninspiring compositions leave me cold. You may find yourself wishing they would've done more with the horn section on "The Wrong Way". Wishing they would have have abandoned the pretentious ululating on "Ambulance" and "Poppy". Wishing the noises were more interesting on "Wear You Out". Wishing they had more skill. Wishing you'd spent your money on something more inspiring (like James Brown, for example).

As it is, they're a second rate band in a second rate music scene.

Unique........2006-10-11

Well, being an all-black indie rock band, TV on the Radio are already pretty unique in the genre. However, it doesn't stop there. These guys have a really cool, interesting, original sound. Take the Pixies, and throw in elements of soul, techno, 50s doo-wop, and many other things, and you have some idea.

Plenty of surprises and diversity from track to track, from the Motown-ish "The Wrong Way", to the dark, fuzzy distortion of "Staring at the Sun", to the all-acapella "Ambulance", to the insanely eclectic "Poppy". Not a bad song, and never a dull moment.

Highly recommended to fans of indie rock. The purists (and they're out there) might not care for this, but if you want something out of the ordinary, definitely check this out.

(Also, this band has a really cool doo-wop cover of the Pixies' "Mr. Grieves". But it's not on here.)

Growing better, but the band still manages to dissapoint........2006-07-10

I will preface this review by saying that in a fair world I would give this record 2.5 or 3 stars.

Unfortunately, since I reserve a bit of knee-jerk, arrogant spite for over-hyped bands, I have to knock them down to a solid 2 stars for this release. Sorry guys.

Although TVoTR has improved slightly in craft since the Young Liars EP, they still leave much to be desired. Actually, it appears that they've made a career out of leaving much to be desired.

This band specializes in leading listeners on a drawn-out journey to nowhere. Although nowhere is only about four or five minutes down the road, it seems to take forever.

Some people dig that vibe. I don't. The band seems to be more intereted in ideas and aesthetics than making truly great music. It is only fair to mention that this is what fans of the band seem to like most about them.

David Sitek, the TV on the Radio's in-house producer seems to have a history of working with bands that priorotize fashion (or, to be nice, 'aesthetics') over music. The Yeah Yeah Yeah's are a good example. Unlike Yeah Yeah Yeah's however, TV on The Radio's personality is definitely its own.

TV On The Radio is like a melancholy version of a bad Saturday Night Live sketch. Every song on this record feels as if it's based on one half-baked, half-decent idea, repeated ad-nauseum.

If the guys down the hall from your old college dorm made music like this, you might be right for supporting them and singing their praises. Unfortunately, the band isn't a bunch of college kids attempting their first DIY project, and we are right to expect more from them. Especially when they're no more interesting, only more slick than your average sampler-toting avant-pop 20 year-olds.

They purposefully build tension with no release, and manage to do so in a rather uncompelling and uninteresting fashion. While listening to this record, some listeners may find themselves expecting any one of the songs to finally "go somewhere". This is a bad idea, as they're not big on 'pay-off'.

They are much more interested in monotonous redundancy. Some people will love that, but be warned if that's not your thing. Trust-fund urbanites, pretentious scenesters, heroin addicts, and stoners may find a lot to like on this record.

The rest of us will have to wait as the band marginly improves and, with any luck, lets go of their impulse to purposefully avoid being any good. Either that, or we can avoid listening to them, and find some other critics's darling to fawn over for now.

(Disclaimer: A few sentences that are stll appropriate here are borrowed from an earlier review that I wrote about the Young Liars EP.)

Journey....We Have A Problem.......2007-07-16

Even though this re-release sounds better than previous ones, at the beginning of the first song, "Girl Can't Help It", a split second of the very first drum beat is missing. Overall, the CD is excellent especially with the added tracks. If you like your recordings of studio music to be prefect like I do in most cases, then this re-release is not for you. Find one used that was recorded from the master properly.

why the critics hated journey.......2007-06-11

This album is a shimmering, glimmering, moody, mystical masterpiece. The wonderful Cain keyboards are in front of the mix creating atmosphere, there is a little less of the great Neal Schon but what is here is as good as always, and the incomparable Steve Perry's voice is lower in the register than it was through most of his career, which actually makes him sound even better. Indeed, it is just about impossible to sound much better than Perry did at this stage of his career. He was truly the voice of his generation of pop-rock singers.

Raised on Radio is, in short, the best album of its type -- which is not the style Journey is most known for, but something very similar to late Roxy Music, mainly their great album Avalon.

It says much that Roxy Music was a critics' darling, whereas Journey was, and is, panned by critics. I don't know about Roxy, but I know why critics didn't like Journey or Foreigner or the like. Virtually all pro or semi-pro music critics are part of a far-left political culture and they wear their agenda on their sleeves. They hardly understand or care about music; their interest is that bands promote leftist politics one way or another. Any band that is very popular but apolitical will be perceived as an enemy and attacked relentlessly, in order to focus attention on bands the politically correct deem more acceptable. Journey concentrated on actually making music, so the critics hated them. The "music" rags had more power in those days, but these things never change. They branded Journey "corporate", whatever that means. I didn't realize that corporations wrote these sugary melodies and sang them like an angel; I thought that was Steve Perry. And as far as I can tell, he sings better than any Beatle (just to compare them to the all-time boomer generation critical favorite), Schon plays guitar better than any Beatle, this band wrote better melodies than any Beatle, and they were darn near as popular as the Beatles. They just didn't write better, or more importantly, more agressively left-wing lyrics than the Beatles, so the twentysomething lit-major socialists who write music reviews don't like them.

I do. I like them better than the Beatles. By a lot. They're less annoying and far superior sonically. If you're reading this review, I bet you think so, too. Don't feel guilty about it. Feel guilty if you've been brainwashed so badly that you don't have Raised on Radio (and the equally superb albums that preceded it) in your collection. At least you can remedy that situation as soon as possible; there's no remedy for rock critics.

some great tunes but not as good as frontiers/escape/infinity.......2007-05-25

the songs on ror are good in their own right but they are too ballady for me and i tend to prefer ballads. the songs lack the rocking edge in frontiers and the simplicity of infinity. sort of too polished a sound in my opinion and the fact that smith and valory weren't featured on this album made it lose a few points in my book. again, i bought this for the collectible digipak packaging which included a booklet with old pictures and tour dates. but this time they were all pics of just the trio rather than the power quintet. my favorite tracks were happy to give and eyes of a woman.

Great CD.......2007-05-07

I bought this CD for my wife. She has all the Steve Perry CD's. If you don't know Journey and you're thinking of listening to them this would be one of the great CD's. Although all of them are great.

Best Journey Album & Tour.......2007-04-07

I saw Journey 2 Times in the Steve Perry period. I SAW the FRONTIERS L.A.show, then the Raised On Radio show in Long Beach. They were both great shows, but the change in the band on the Raised On Radio album gave the band a stronger, punchier sound. And the live show was the Proof,I told a friend today that "Raised On Radio is like the perfect album" I still love this album, and the reissue CD has that reminder of the power of that live show. The 2 live tracks at the end are Fantastic, I Want More! Journey Fans, Buy this CD, You'll Love it... I Still Do.

Who's on First: A Collection of Classic Routines.......2007-07-18

Well, first off, it took a long time to receive it. Then, when I got it - the cover was cracked. I bought this for my dad, so I waited until he opened it to see if it was damaged. Luckily it wasn't because if I returned, god knows how long it would have taken to get a new one.

I've been happy with every purchase made on Amazon. But, of course, this one was a gift and this is the one that had problems.

"Who's On First" never gets old.......2007-01-12

I've been looking for a digital audio version of "Who's On First" for quite a while. That routine alone is worth the price of the disc. The rest of the sketches are pretty typical Abbott & Costello and are worth a listen or two, but the title track is a timeless piece of Americana. This version is somewhat different than the other audio and video versions that I've heard, but as we all know, eventually we find that I Don't Know is on third base and we just "Don't Give A Darn"... Oh yeah, that's our shortstop!

The original routines and recordings........2006-12-29

Expect some static, and to miss the beginning of the routines if you are not ready immediately after pressing "play". Otherwise, it's all great, classic, stuff unjaded by years of re-performance.

Classic Duo of Golden Age Comedy.......2006-02-23

I used to have this on vinyl... remember those things? It makes you feel like a kid again. I'm starting a collection of these radio legends like Fibber McGee & Molly, Jack Benny, The Whistler, Dimension X, etc.... CD's, of course. (I gotta get wit' the times.)

The funniest comedy team ever........2000-05-09

People today laugh at Seinfeld, Sinbad and others. If they want to hear true comedy, listen to these two. Abbott And Costello simply can't be beat. And who can forget "Who's On First! " That is to comedy like "Stairway To Heaven" is to classic rock. This disc will leave you in stitches and wanting more.
