A musical treasure-box.......2006-09-10

Both the music and this actual product are masterpieces. John Dowland's collected works here - covering 12 compact discs - exhibit the depth and power of this composer, a composer who many now regard as suffering from clinical depression. I doubt that the issue of the diagnosis of Dowland's depression can ever be settled, however, it is certainly obvious from his music, so completely on display here, that he was a man with very dark depths and corners in his mind. Dowland's various manifestations and "takes" on his own tune, "Flow my tears"/"Lachrimae" are here. This tune has haunted me ever since I first heard it when I was a child. It seems to sum up Dowland's feelings - at least Dowland seems to have thought so.

The First, Second, Third and Fourth Bookes of Songes, A Musicall Banquet, the keyboard transcriptions, all the lute music, consort music are here and virtually everything else written or supposedly written by John Dowland. Anthony Rooley and The Consort of Musicke perform this music with style and feeling throughout. This 12 CD set is something of a monument to the ensemble - I only wish they'd finished their collection of Monteverdi madrigals, which was equally good (La Venexiana are currently doing a magnificent job of recording all Monteverdi's books of madrigals for the GLOSSA label).

This is an expensive set, however, you will probably never need to buy another John Dowland CD again after buying and listening to this collection.

I bought this CD set on a mild Summer evening of 1998 and listened to it while sitting in my sun room - which a glorious orange sunset in progress, and a glass of wine. It brought back so many memories.

a beautiful journey into melancholy.......2001-06-15

I'm amazed at how many people tend to associate John Dowland's music with a tragic sense of drama. While no doubt this is art highly based on sadness, the "tragic" sense of it is more a legacy from the Romantic period. During the Renaissance, however, sadness was undestood as a very aesthetic way of approaching life. That is also the reason why Shakespeare's tragedies appear more sophisticated than his comedies.

Dowland, a contemporary of Shakespeare, discovered that meditating on a sad theme is, at the same time, a way of discovering a special beauty that we tend to avoid (maybe because of the "tragic" heritage of the Romantics). So, in the end, meditating on sadness is an uplifting experience! This box set is a journey into melancholy that includes songs, chamber music, pieces for lute, some rare sacred music and -as a highlight- Dowland's beautiful collection of seven pieces for viola which he called "Lachrimae" (Tears).

Groovy Classics.......2007-01-09

A great way to introduce the classics to the person who is too hip to listen to Mozart!

Remixed.......2006-06-01

Hmmmm....what can I say? Remixed is the 3rd album Bond has released, consisting of remixes of old favorites and several new tracks. For those of you who don't know, Bond is a rock string Quartet made up by 4 young women. Similar in style old Vanessa Mae.

The Album starts with an exciting opening, of Viva! (Orion Mix). This is made up from a remake of Antonio Vivaldi's Allegro from Winter (The Four Seasons). Its an enjoyable piece, very simple, but the drums and the occasional shouting of "VIVA!" makes it a great song.

The second track is a remix of one of Bond's more famous piece. Victory was a huge success, but the remix wasn't so in my opinion. The 'Sharp Boys Wild Strings Edit' was a strange one. It didn't contain much of the original. After a tedious drum beat and strange sounds for about 1 minute and 10 seconds, a short clip of strings come on the original melody. For the next minute more drums, then more repeating of the melody heard in the middle.

Third track was a remix of Wintersun. Wintersun (Bobby D'Ambrosio Mix) was basically the same, but a bit more of a disco style.

Again, with Speed (Crash Club Mix). Sam thing, but a lot more of the disco sounds. I actually found myself enjoying it more than the original! It really sounds like some one is...driving a car or something.

Fuego's remix (Caliete Mix) I also enjoyed more than the original. It has a longer introduction, and more music to back up the strings. It also has a very fast sita (sp?) solo in the middle, making it sound very Spanish!

Homecoming, Atlanta and Time are new tracks. Not my most favorites, but they are very calm, remind me of Asia. Except for Time which sort of gives you the feeling that all the clocks are moving at the same time. Bond also uses Clock sounds in the middle for effect.

Shine (Dubsharka Mix) is by FAR the best song on the album. Its a fantastic dance track, with a fantastic solo and playing in the song. Its a Bollywood styled song, making you think of India. I was a little disappointed however, since this song was released on their earlier album (Shine, 2002). Although I love it, they should have put the Indian Summer Mix on instead, which cant be found anywhere except on Atlanta/Time

Duel and Bond on Bond (Both 'Hectic Mixes') I just couldn't stand. They were absolutely ridiculous. Just having the tracks played twice as fast. If I wanted to do that, I could have gone into Media player and pressed Fast Forward x2.

The Last song is Jingle Bell Rock (Pussy Galore Mix). Its an interesting one, just jazzing up the original Jingle Bell Rock.

Overall, this album is great for something like a party, for its mainly disco music. Not the best Bond Album, but very good anyway.

However, If you are a big bond fan, I would suggest you get the Import (Includes 2 videos of Victory and Fuego) or the Japanese Edition (Includes and Extra mix of Viva!, original Jingle Bell Rock, Duel Indonesian Mix and Innocent)

Hope you enjoy this CD!

Exciting!.......2004-09-07

I got Bond's debut album a couple years ago. Although not as exciting as Vanessa-Mae's album "Storm," it was better than Vanessa-Mae's debut crossover album "The Violin Player" and approximately equal to her third album, "Subject To Change." The Bond debut had a lot of energy, but to me it was begging for a little stronger beat.

So when I found a Bond remix album late last summer, I grabbed it! How cool can that be--a Bond remix album! Whoo-hoo!!!

When I got it home and listened to it, I was a bit disappointed because it wasn't quite remixed enough. I wanted the mixes to be hotter, and the bass and drums more pronounced. But under-remixed is far preferable to over-remixed, which is a problem with Vanessa-Mae's song "Storm." This is my favorite Vanessa-Mae song; the four-minute album length is not nearly long enough for me, so when I learned there was an 8-minute remix, I just had to have it! I had to buy this Vanessa Mae CD single from a store in England (via Amazon's used CD vendors) since I could not find it stateside. And I was very disappointed: The remixer had so vastly remixed it that not only did it lose all its energy, it wasn't even recognizable! So between over-remixing and under-remixing, I prefer under-remixing, thus I am happy enough with the remixes on this Bond album. But they could have done better, I think.

Although I was a little disappointed that the mixes not being spruced up quite enough, it does not mean I do not like this album. Au contraire! I love this album! It is an album full of energy, life, vitality! It is an album that I nearly always play very LOUD! It as an album that I play when I'm wound up, feelin' good!!! Nearly every song is fast, and the beat never stops!

The album opens with "Viva!", a song that is also found on their DVD, which I bought around the same time I got this album. What a perfect song to start this album with! A sample of a group of females shouting 'VIVA!" plays from time to time throughout, adding to the energetic playing of the strings. On the DVD, this song is backed with video footage from their concert at the Royal Albert Hall in England; in the video, when the shouts "VIVA!" are heard, fireworks shoot out from the balconies and the stage at the theater--so exciting!

The next song is the remix of their first radio hit, "Victory," which starts out with a hot Latin beat and Spanish guitars. "Victory" and another track, "Fuego," feature frenetic string playing. The best song on the CD for dancing--and my second favorite song on the album--is "Duel." This has a driving bass line and percussion beat, an upfront electronic synthesizer riff, and a beautiful ethereal female nonverbal vocal accoutrement, with tubular bells even added toward the end. Spine-tingling! Wonderful!

Although "Duel" and my favorite song "Viva!" rule supreme in the degree of spine-tingling awesomeness, they're not the only ones to bring such a pleasurable reaction to me. "Wintersun" is played with deep heartfelt emotion; "Atlanta" also is full of emotion. I like "Speed" and "Time" because of their European technopop sound, especially "Time," which has a nice melodic, minor key electronic keyboard riff. "Shine" has a bit of a Spanish or Italian flair, another of many romantic flavors of this album.

There are only two songs on the album that I don't care for. One I absolutely don't like is "Jingle Bell Rock," but that's because I hate the song, not because I don't like their version of the song. If I am forced to listen to that song, I would likely choose their version. The other one I like okay, but it doesn't do for me what the rest of the songs on the album do: "Bond on Bond." This is a track of them doing the James Bond theme. A cool idea, and it works, but again, doesn't float my boat. Fortunately, these two songs are at the end of the album, so I can just end the album at the third to the last song, which is also my second favorite song, "Duel"!

Most of the DVD's music comes from their first album, while this remix CD has the best of their first two albums. I now have their third studio album, "Classified," which I like better than their first album (I don't have their second), but no surprise to me, this remix album of theirs is clearly my favorite. "Storm" by Vanessa Mae is my favorite secular album of all time, all genres combined, so naturally in the genre of classical crossover it is my favorite. Bond's "Remix" is my second favorite classical crossover album. It reaches down and touches the heartstrings of my musical soul and stirs them up to make a fabulous and emotional listening experience for me!

Remixed not recommended for "re-listening"........2004-07-27

Bond has impressed critics with their somewhat controversial performances of classical-crossovers. From using trance beats to the sounds of African drums... there is no limit to how much and what they can do to enhance classical music that they play.

With Bond Remixed however; it is quite a drag to put it simply. The album is a total re-mix album, so think of it as a compilation of single re-mixes put together. But also, there are three original tracks by Bond: Homecoming, Atlanta, and Time. All three of these tracks rely a lot on synth sounds and trance beats. Which get boring after listening to all these re-mixes, but keeping in mind that it is a RE-MIX album after all... so although the originality of Bond's previous albums: Born and Shine are not there, it is because they are re-mixed.

One of my personal favorite tracks is Viva [Orion Mix], which for those who have the Bond Live at Royal Albert Hall DVD all should know (For those who do not know, it is an extra video on the DVD, a live performance of Viva). Though I would have to say it takes repetition of classical music to its red line. Another great track to listen to is Jingle Bell Rock [Pussy Galore Mix]. Great example of good trance, combined with classical sounds. Bobby D'Ambrosio's mix of Winter, originally named Wintersun, is interesting enough by creating a new intro into the song. The rest of the song is shorter with a different beat.

The rest of the tracks seemed to use the original songs, but just add a different beat, more bass, and more synth. It puts the name of "re-mix" to a shame. Besides Speed [Crash Club Mix] which adds more excitement to the song as it is called Speed, the listener is better off listening to the originals. The prime example of horrible remixing is Duel [Hectic Mix] and Bond on Bond [Hectic Mix] (It's funny how both of these songs were badly mixed by the same person). In Duel, Hectic makes the song more faster-paced and adds a synth sound to the beat, which has a deeper bass. The song relatively stays the same. As goes the same for the Bond on Bond mix, where there is only a different, harder dance beat added to the original song. Also, Shine [Dubshakra Mix], doesn't even sound different. After listening carefully, you will notice the very subtle addition of more tambourines. But it sounds exactly the same; I listened back and forth from the "mix" to the original on the "Shine" album, and could not really tell.

If you want re-mixed Bond songs, this is terrible album to try to find some. Re-mixes are supposed to be a variation of the original song, almost as if the mix was a whole new song. But these "re-mixes" are sad to listen to. I am ashamed for whoever compiled this horrible playlist of tracks. Also, the original tracks by Bond are not what Bond is noted for, as if they were rushed to do these tracks.

A lot of artists do a "filler" album. Bond may have used a re-mix album to give themselves a year off, either for time off recording, or to make more time to record their 4th album, "Classified". Most likely it was to give the girls some well-deserved time off after releasing "Born" and "Shine".

Any fan of Bond will most likely find this album oddly dissatisfying, leaving a caustic taste in the mouth, and a penetrating headache. I would not recommend this album, unless you are a die-hard fan. But please, if you are a first-time listener to Bond, listen to "Born" or "Shine".

*There is two videos that can be played on your computer however; a video of Fuego and Victory, are fun to watch. But they are from their other albums, Victory from "Born" and Fuego from "Shine".

Good remixes.......2004-06-19

I generally stay away from remix albums simply because it's tough to improve on an original. However, I'm a huge fan of techno music and these remixes are heavier fixed with the sound of the dancefloor than the original tracks are. As you can tell by some of the reviews, some people love this, and some hate it. I think the ones that hated this CD are not fans of modern dance music and miss the whole point of dance CDs to begin with, so you can't judge anything by what they say.
This is a great dance CD, period. For the more consertive use of dance beats, see any of Bonds other releases, but this one is definately for the club fans out there. Another killer dance CD I want to suggest is Mr.Deviant's "Techno Obsession" which mixes power rock with killer dance beats to create some very original dance music. Both CDs are great!

Goofball New York Thrashmetal with a brain and a Punk attitude.......2007-07-09

Not as intense nor anywhere near as morbid as Slayer's Seasons In The Abyss of the same year, Anthrax's Persistence Of Time cries for tolerance and the end of hatred and stupidity in a more melodic sort of way. While both albums are good favorites of mine, I enjoy this one especially for it's passion and agression. While many typical air-headed mainstream metal fans would possibly like this cd for it's tough hooks and the more extreme fans of death metal might find it to be too simplistic, Persistence of time finds perfect ground between punk rock anger and speed and heavy metal musicianship. I believe anyone who likes rock music could find enjoyment with this album. The lyrics are definitely a plus for those with an intellectual side. Calling for action and positive thought among the rat race of despair, death, greed, racism, and substance abuse, Anthrax stand high above their thrash metal peers leading a revolution that would sadly go nowhere and lead to bands like limp biskit and korn spouting utter nonsense. If you like any kind of heavy music with an intelligent side then please give this cd a listen. Any other person who likes Slayer and the Dead Kennedys like I do could truly enjoy this. Even fans of the Cro-Mags come to think of it. If Blood, Discharge, and Belly of The Beast don't get your blood flowing, you may possibly be dead or into twangy annoying CMT crap...

Decent latter day Joey product - 3.5 stars.......2007-04-04

It could be said that my title to this review damns the album with faint praise. And that would be true for this album has a few good points and a group of bad ones, so IMHO here are the two sides of the coin;

The Bad
- Dour, depressed subject matter on a bunch of the songs. Gone are the silly shorts that's for sure
- Too few memorable tunes. Keep it in the Family and In My World are standouts but only the start of H*Red matches them. Unless you take into account the way cool Got the Time, a cover of the Joe Jackson songs.
- No atmosphere or sense of occasion. Everything feels a bit forced.

The Good
- the haunting Keep it in the Family and In My World - both metal to the core causing all sorts of unpleasant introspection. Basically both harrowing experienced and thats meant in a good way.
- the band yet again co-produce which means that this is how they wanted it to sound. Something in me can see the point of a producer but other times I applaud bands putting in the extra effort.
- Belladonna is in fine voice here, the band sound tight.

Not great by any means but not hurl inducing either. If you liked their early stuff and fell of the ride before this album then pick it up if you can as it fleshes out their Belladonna era catalogue nicely.

all time favorite Anthrax album.......2006-06-10

I love this album. A definite classic that really defines the thrash that is Anthrax. With great song like Gridlock, Keep It In The Family, Belly Of The Beast, and ofcourse Got The TIme. Must have for any Anthrax or thrash metal fan.

so long joey.......2006-06-05

joey belladonna's last album with scott ian and company, nice way to go out too. this album is from start to finish a great album. not every track starts out great, but from the first chorus on this is a kick ass album. the only thing that would make me downgrade this album is that scott ian doesn't harmonize with joey as much, but thats ok because joey did a great job here. my favorite track has to be one man stands, because i love the riff and scotts vocals when theyre there are superb, great great stuff.

Wasnt Up to Par back in 1991, and still is an another Over-rated Anthrax Album.......2006-02-13

I remember when "Persistence of Time" was released back in 1991. I used to talk with about the album with alot of people back then and ask what they thought if it, and most of them either said it sucked, or it wasnt up to par with the previous 2 releases before it. To this day, I still agree with those people of yesteryear, and There are really only a few really kick a** songs on this album. I think the problem with Anthrax is that "Amoung the Living" was such a Metal Masterpiece, that I BELIEVE that they were never able to top that effort, unlike other Thrash Metal artist of the 80's whos albums were getting better, or at least staying at the same level as previous releases. I cant recommend "Amoung the Living" enough, but as for other Anthrax releases of the time, only "Spreading The Disease" would rate higher then 3 stars, and of course Amoung the Living is a solid 5. Once again, this is a pretty good album, but there are some really lousy songs on here, and only two songs stand out as EXCELLENT. Try Amoung the Living or Spreading the Disease if you want some older Antrax, as they are wayyy better then this.

Enjoying The Pleasures of K. Battle & C. Parkening.......2007-05-06

Whether you are very familiar with these two artists or have never heard either one, you will delight in this musical collaboration. Only a guitarist of Christopher Parkening's stature could be the ideal accompaniment to the perfection of Kathleen Battle's voice. The music ranges from selections by John Dowland to American spirituals, Bach/Gounod, Villa-Lobos, Granados and some Spanish folk songs. The result is a coherent, soothing and utterly delightful listening experience. You will revisit this album often, and always be glad that you have it. For fans of Kathleen Battle and Christopher Parkening, I think it is a must.

Great blending of the talents of two top-notch artists in their respective fields. Parkening on the guitar and Battle singing........2006-01-31

We always enjoyed seeing and hearing Battle in concerts, usually on the television and Parkening has been a favorite guitarist. To listen to these two fine artists in concert is a real treat.

Superb technique, emotionally flat, but enjoyable even so........2005-05-25

I can't imagine these songs being performed with any greater technical brilliance than they are by Parkening and Battle on this CD. Both are virtuosos, him in the guitar, her the voice. Their skill is particularly apparent in the Dowland songs, the "Ave Maria", and the Bachianas brasileiras no. 5 (for me, the high point of the recording), which are all in a formal style well suited to the talents of the performers.

I compare the Brazilian songs to the version recorded by Salli Terri with Laurindo Almeida in the late '50's on "Duets with Spanish Guitar", which I have listened to repeatedly since I first heard it in 1959. Battle's phrasing, enunciation, and vocal skill are far superior to Terri's, but Terri brought a level of emotion to her singing that Battle seems to lack. Where Battle's perfection enhances her superb performances of the Dowland and Villa-Lobos pieces, it seems to detract from her performance of the Brazilian folk pieces.

I find this to be true again in the spirituals - vocal perfection and control detracting from the "soul" required to bring out the "spiritual" feeling. Imagine these same pieces sung by Mahalia Jackson or Aretha Franklin and you'll understand my point.

Parkening's performance has the same quality - technical virtuosity, especially noticeable in his lute-like technique in the Dowland solo - but lacking in emotional depth.

The classical selections are highly recommended, the folk pieces a bit disappointing, but overall an enjoyable recording.

ONE OF MY FAVOURITES.......2004-03-19

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE BATTLE ALBUMS, HER SWEET VOICE IS ACCOMPAINED BY THE GUITAR VIRTUOSO CHRISTOPHER PARKENING, TOGETHER CREATE A TENDER, DELIGHTFUL & BEAUTIFUL LISTENING EXPERIENCE. BACHIANAS BRASILEIRAS N- 5 HAS IT`S BEST PERFORMANCE IN THIS CD.

Fans will be delighted!.......2003-08-25

Fans, maybe, but I must say I'm not a huge fan of Kathleen Battle or opera or songs in different languages, either. My mom is, though. And through her I have heard Kathleen's best. And her very best (if you ask me) is one of the tracks ON THIS CD titled "Ain't that good news," even though it should be called "Ain'ta dat good news," since that is how its sung. It is a really good song (ask anybody) with a little surprise high-note at the end. If I were you I would (if not buy this CD right here and now) then go to [a book store] and see if their computers will let you hear "Ain't that good news" because that song is great.

My Favorite of ALL Time Metal album........2007-05-07

Dark Angel's Time Does Not Heal is one of the heaviest and intricate thrash metal albums ever- too bad its out of print in USA. If you can get it at a reasonable price- less than 20.00, buy it! I just re-added it to my collection and can't stop listening to it.

great album but beware.......2007-03-15

don't buy this from seller ships_first_class_daily, it will take forever to reach you and if you give him a bad rating he will harass and threaten you to remove it. Great customer service indeed. Anyhow just a warning to watch out for horrible sellers buy from anyone but him, if you want to hear this great metal masterwork within the next 3 months.

Peace Keep it Heavy!

ships_first_class_daily = Poor service, and mental patients emailing you.

4.2 Their Best.......2006-10-27

Excellent cd. dark Angel was always like a freight train, but the lyrics on this cd are awesome! Some great riffs (as usual) with better production than the previous cd (Leave Scars). was their swan song and a damn good one..

Riffs.......2006-03-12

Lotsa people call this the ultimate prog-thrash album, and they're kinda right, kinda wrong. I don't think that it's the ultimate in terms of quality, but it has got the most riffs and the longest songs, so that goes for a lot. This album has one major flaw: Lousy vox. They just don't fit the music very well with too much vibratto, and the vocal lines aren't well written either. Shoulda just got another snarler like the dude on 'Darkness Descends'. And no, this album isn't as good as that one, but it's still pretty damn good, and is definitely quite overlooked.

Musicianship is top-notch, as you would imagine. The legendary Gene Hoglan is on display here, and while he certainly isn't at the top of his game he's still pretty great. This has also got some relatively top-notch production for a thrash album. Lots of clarity but still heavy enough. The leadwork is acceptable, but it doesn't really standout too much. Dark Angel isn't about leads, however, just the unending thrash assault, and that's what this album has got.

Honestly, the tracks here are a little bit samey-sounding, even for a thrash album, so we don't have as many standouts as you might like. Still, it sounds good when you're listening to it. I particularly like 'A Subtle Induction'. Definitely the most unhinged thing here, and with very amusing joke lyrics. Probably the single best part of the album is the intro to 'Psychosexuality'. That's just the most awesome, epic, eastern-tinged little thing you've ever heard. It's totally got a Nile feel to it. That overall is just one of the best tracks, some of the most varied riffing and relatively good vox. 'Act of Contrition' is probably the most immediately memorable song. The best chorus, vocally, and just a bit shorter and more accessible than most of the material. 'An Ancient Inherited Shame' is the longest track at 9:16, but still probably the catchiest thing here other than 'Act of Contrition', with a great gallop to the whole thing and some unintentionally funny vocals/lyrics. (I know this is a serious song and all, but a man repeatedly singing 'I'm not a whore!' equals funny. And it doesn't stop there either.) The album loses a bit of momentum here, with 'Trauma and Catharsis' and 'Sensory Deprivation' being the two weakest tracks on the album, but they certainly aren't bad.

Yeah, a good thrash album. Not a quite a lost masterpiece, but definitely worth getting.

WOW! A Thrash Album Packed With Riffs........2005-08-16

Yes, I can spare 67 Minutes of pure thrash from an underrated band.
What can I say about this classic album, well, Gene Hoglan has to be one of my favourite drummers right now, because he played with death, testament, old mans child and now with strapping young lad, I'd have to say that he did alot better with dark angel (especially in darkness descends), but not only does he play drums, he also plays guitar, nice job gene. Now on to the album.
Awesome Production By Terry Date (Who also produced Overkill, Pantera, Soulfly and Metal Church), and sounds alot better than Leave Scars (while still a good album, but suffered by poor production), the song are pretty lengthy but works well with alot of variation and (you guessed it) alot of riffs which run by intricatcy and time changes. As for The Vocals, Ron Rinehart can freakin sing, unlike Don Doty, he's alot powerful, stronger and...well... he can sing, maybe better than most metal singers out there (except Warrel Dane maybe).

Lets Have A Look track by track for highlights:

1. Time Does Not Heal: (11/10)A great start that accusticlly builds up into a total thrash mania.
2. Pains Invention, Madness: (10/10)Similar but better as the ending shows some of the most heaviest riffs ever.
3. Act Of Contrition: (9/10)A bit slower than the first 2 songs but has some cool lyrics and a great drum intro from gene hoglan.
4. The New Priesthood: (10/10)A bit faster than the previous track that features a guitar solo from gene hoglan .
5. Psychosexuality: (9/10)It was boring the first time I heard this one, but it's a grower, still a good track.
6. An Ancient Inherited Shame: (11/10)The longest of the bunch, and my favourite track, featuring cool riffs, cool lyrics and also the great vocals of ron.
7. Trauma And Catharsis: (10/10)Starts slow and builds up again into nice dark angel fasion.
8. Sensory Deprivation: (9/10)More mid-paced packed with more of the best riffs in the middle section.
9. A Subtle Induction: (11/10)The last song and a little bit more aggressive than the last few tracks which includes great solos from guitar duo Eric & Brett and more awesome riffs at the end of the song, what a great ending to an awesome album.

Sadly this is Dark Angels Last album and the last thrash albums of the early 90's(which grunge, death metal and CRAP nu-metal arrived into the scene, but now metal is stronger than ever), but if you want some pure sweet thrash metal, check this out now. You won't regret it.

The new record doesn't stray from the sound established by the EP, which garnered such descriptions as "in-your-face hardcore that never lets up from start to finish" and "one of the best records I've heard all year." The songs are still just as heavy, straightforward, and pissed off as ever before. KNOW THE SCORE deliver a raw, honest second release that doesn't pull any punches.

outstanding collection! just wished they would put in some 'matey dj chat' with his pal Andy Kershaw!

brought back memories of listening to JP when I was a kid growing up in England! god! do i wish i still had those old TDK audio tapes! nevermind, this is a great selection of tracks dating from 1977 to '87. pretty sure they'll be out with another set soon!

fav's include The Cure - "A Forest", The Slits - "Typical Girls", Laurie Anderson - "O Superman" and pretty much the whole two cd's! a MUST for anybody's collection...

good.......2007-01-20

Another fine CD containing some favourites of the late John Peel. One disappointment is that as most of these recently released newwave-oriented compilations, it contains not so many rare tracks as one would like to see. This is especially true when you consider the kind of music he played on his shows.

"must have compilation for film buffs".......2000-11-24

Milan Records celebrates the history of popular cinema with a 2-CD anthology of the music that drove the most affectionately remembered films of the modern cinematic era. These indelible musical impressions come courtesy of the most renowned film score composers of our time - Maurice Jarre, Max Steiner, Hans Zimmer, James Horner, Ennio Morricone, Bernard Herrmann, Randy Edelman and Henry Mancini.

Released into two general categories, the album presents moments from films of "Love, Passion & Comedy", on disc one - gives us the most powerful classic love themes from "WEST SIDE STORY", "DR. ZHIVAGO" and "LOVE STORY", and features newer classics from "TITANIC", "THE TRUMAN SHOW", "UNCHAINED MELODY" and on the lighter side "A FISH CALLED WANDA", "BENNY & JOON" and one of the most familiar themes ever written "THE PINK PANTHER" from legendary icon Henry Mancini.

On disc two "ACTION, ADVENTURE & SUSPENSE", includes themes from Alfred Hitchcock's landmark films "NORTH BY NORTHWEST" and the absolutely unforgettable "PSYCHO" finale...then the greatest action hero of all time leads off with Monty Norman's "JAMES BOND THEME", and action cues from "BACKDRAFT" and "SPEED"...next up the Academy Award winning theme from "THE LAST EMPEROR" and "GETTYSBURG" main title, one of the best-selling score CD's of all time.

A must have for "movie-music" collectors and film buffs, including music lovers and anyone who really enjoys a little nostalgia now and then...thank you Milan for this trip down memory lane and the amazing legacy of 20th Century Cinema!

Cool Concept focused around Nostradamus.......2006-06-14

This album was brought out my second year in college, and it is what inspired me to truely start collecting Helloween albums. This was the first hints of what darkness helloween could brew up if they put their mind to it. Somewhat darker, and more grinding loud than previous albums, Oath stormed into stores with blistering tracks like Wake Up The Mountain and, Before the War, and We Burn (the blistering lead off track which sets a killer pace for the rest of the album). This album screams see us live, we'll blow the roof off the house (see High Live).

Now as for the 2006 Edition, This is excellent to have, cause the bonus track are very well put together and a necessary to any collection. Still I Don't Know has an awsome intro, and Take it To the Limit has a cool sound all of it's own (great melody). And of course, electric eye, yes, priest re-done well, a fitting tribute. All of the other tracks are just incredible as well, adding basically a new album to one that was already excellent. I already own two version of this Particular album (CD and Cassette), and I still felt the need to buy this re-master, because the bonus disc is worth it. Also the new album/liner notes continue the biography/interviews of the other re-masters. Money well spent.
