    Album Description

    A genre and gender-defying mix of rock, pop, and dance inspired by burlesque, drag queens, and glam rock, New York's Scissor Sisters made a big splash in late 2003/early 2004 with their neon-bright re-imagining of Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb," the B-side to the band's first single "Electrobix."

    They have topped album charts, selling out concert venues and scoring hit after hit in the UK and much of Europe. They have won praise from the praise from Kylie Minogue, Duran Duran, and Elton John.

    "Scissor Sisters Remixed!" features the remix versions (including exclusives) by Tiga, and A Touch of Class of the group's hit songs "Comfortably Numb," "Electrobix," and "Filthy Gorgeous."

    1 out of 5 stars I'll let you know when I get a good CD..........2006-06-05

    This isn't a review really. I've ordered probably about 100 CD's from Amazon in the past year. Fillin' up my iPod with genuine copies of music. Of those roughly 100 CD's, I've only got one defective, this one. So, I asked for a replacement. Got another defective one! If I got two defective of the same CD, and nothing else I've got from Amazon has been defective, makes me think they got a defective batch.

    1 out of 5 stars I thought only talented bands were allowed to do this sort of thing!.......2006-04-23

    Uggh, this is a terrible remix from the one of the worst bands out there: Scissor Sisters. Ooooohhh, they took the songs from their debut and threw in another keyboard! What a great Remix! NOT! All this time I thought that only bands who had talent and wrote their own songs were worthy of remixes. I can't believe the Scissor Sisters took one of the greatest song in Rock (Comfortably Numb), and turned it into a radio friendly dance song! Ahh! What's next? Ashlee Simpson doing Stairway To Heaven? If you want some GOOD remixes, try any of the Nine Inch Nails remix albums, whixh rock. Trent takes the amazing songs he writes and turns them into something completely new- almost as if you've never heard the song before. This sucks.

    5 out of 5 stars Let's hear it for rainbow pride!.......2006-04-14

    Scissor Sisters are not only a talented band, but they're also fearless champions for equality and tolerance! Rednecks need not apply. Get this album or you're a bigot!

    5 out of 5 stars GREAT SCISSORING!.......2005-08-25

    I Love this album, they did a great job remixing their songs and 2 b-sides. Electrobix wich talks about being gay and feeling weird and The Skins which talks about cheating on someone via internet. The remixes are great especially the FILTHY/GORGEOUS remix!

    5 out of 5 stars I love these remixes!.......2005-04-22

    What's better than a Scissor Sisters album? The remix album, of course! You have to hear the remix of "Comfortably Numb," and the extended version of "Filthy/Gorgeous" is simply amazing! These guys get better and better. No wonder why they're the fastest-selling group around!

    5 out of 5 stars Best of the 70's.......2002-01-09

    These songs that are on this CD are very hard to find. I have most of them on vinyl but not on CD. The songs are great and only Paul Anka could deliver them the right way. The CD is magnificent. If you liked Paul Anka this is for you. He always writes great songs.. I have been playing this in my car for about 2 weeks now. Happy to find these songs on CD.

    5 out of 5 stars A great cd that really touches you.......1999-08-07

    Paul Anka is an artist who has been around for many years. I love his music and the songs of this cd really move me to the heart and even send shivers down my spine. Great!

    5 out of 5 stars Paul Anka, the singer that can really move me with his songs.......1999-08-07

    I have been familiar with the songs of Paul Anka for a long time and every time I listen to his songs and hear him sing, I am moved straight to my heart. I love the melodies and I'm often touched by the lyrics of the songs.

    5 out of 5 stars Great Soundtrack.......2001-09-06

    Bravo!! Excellent soundtrack for a very special comedy. George Barrie, Sammy Cahn and John Cameron composed a memorable score, in particular, the song "All that love went to waste" did deserve to win the Academy Award for Best Original Song, but lost to the very slow "The Way We Were". The music represents perfectly the spirit of the film, starred by Glenda Jackson, who won the Oscar for Best Actress In A Leading Role, even some people supposed that Ellen Burnstyn would be the winner that year, for her performance in "The Exorcist". I recommend this soundtrack for anyone who really loves the great music.

    4 out of 5 stars Easy listening elegance........2002-03-07

    There would be a tendency, I suppose, to dismiss this album as forgettable elevator music. The music was copyrighted in the late '50s and early '60s, and, generally speaking, it's the same stuff that one hears on those "music of your life" radio stations. Much as Henry Mancini, Nelson Riddle walked a fine line between "easy listening" and lite jazz. As the title suggests, this album stresses the more elegant sound. That means an emphasis on stringed instruments, but even Charlie Parker did some music with strings. True elegance is the theme music from an obscure Western movie of 1956 called "The Proud Ones." Riddle's orchestration nicely captures the image of a rider on the trail, whistling to keep the restless cattle quiet. In a brief 2 minutes and 45 seconds, the listener enjoys a smooth sound that sooths jangled nerves. The track is followed by the "Route 66" theme that evokes a '60s sports car eating up the highway miles. Moving on from movie and TV themes, there is "September in the Rain," as the leaves of brown come tumbling down. The lighthearted "Lisbon Antigua" and the others nicely round out the set of 16 tracks. This European import is a reissue of the original album. There are no liner notes, just a listing of the music and publication dates. This one will make the Hip-Hop generation gag. Those with an open mind can relax and enjoy the music. ;-)

      4 out of 5 stars Classy and Fine.......2004-12-08

      If you've bought Pete Fountain's CD's with him performing live, especially in the 60's and 70's, you heard pure Pete at his best. I have been searching for a CD version of an album with "perfida" and some equally beautiful selections. However, Pete Fountain's "A Touch of Class" is equally remarkable. He's still pretty terrific Now (see him in New Orleans to get the full experience). Pete loves the audience and it shows when he performs. Each note has his signature kiss. (okay, I'm getting a bit carried away, but it happens when I hear Pete Fountain)

      4 out of 5 stars Wine and Song.......2002-08-24

      My father listened to Pete Fountain when I was young so I am very familiar with his music. Though I am not a fan of Dixie music I do like his clarinet playing. This CD is more classics and the playing is wonderful. A good buy.

      5 out of 5 stars excellent CD.......2000-11-04

      a great mix of timeless classics performed with excellent orchestration. A must for dinner party background music or a romantic drive in the country

      5 out of 5 stars Virtuoso Guitar.......2000-07-26

      This is an excellent guitar collection; in fact, it is an excellent classical anthology, guitar or otherwise. Angel Romero and his son, Lito (heard on tracks five through seven), represent the second and third generations of a family of guitar virtuosi.

      A number of the selections are more commonly heard performed by piano; however, in the hands of a guitarist of the calibre of Angel Romero, what can be done on the piano can be done with at least equal efficacy on the guitar. The only non-Western piece is the variations on Sakura, which should be particularly pleasant listening experience for those not previously familiar with it.

      If one is building a classical music library, this is a recording that one should want to include.

      4 out of 5 stars "A Touch of Class" pretty much hits the nail on the head.......2000-02-08

      Angel Romero is one of three classical guitar-playing brothers, one of the others being Pepe (who is also excellent). I purchased this CD solely to get the hauntingly beautiful "Cavatina" from the movie "Deer Hunter." I've been very happy with this recording - the Cavatina is lovely, there are some "classical guitar standards," and some other pleasant surprises. I like the Variations on "Greensleeves," and variations on a Japanese folk song, "Sakura." The sound quality is typical Telarc, which I generally find to be top-notch.

      Aficionados of classical guitar music will especially enjoy this CD, in my opinion, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants some lovely, tranquil music to either listen to or to use as unobtrusive background music.

      2 out of 5 stars 3 good mixes only imho.......2005-06-30

      Eh. Uneven and often boring to be honest. "Flawless" is a great song, to be sure. And the Scissor Sister cuts are good remixes. But, for my tastes, in the end the mixes are overly repetitive, unimaginative and often not very danceable. Too bad because on the Touch of Class website they have some really great dance mixes you can download. Go there, not here.

      A collective out of NYC, this brings together seemingly disparate and unrelated artists such as ARE Weapons and Scissor Sisters (who completely SHRED Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb"--imagine it being interpreted by the Bee Gees circa Saturday Night Fever). Track for track the best dance comp around, for those who prefer Frankie Goes To Hollywood to the likes of ATB.
