5 out of 5 stars Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

5 out of 5 stars Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

5 out of 5 stars Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

5 out of 5 stars Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

Need more evidence of the record industry's obsession with youth? Consider that budding Welsh diva Charlotte Church was a ripe, old 16 when this, her first greatest-hits anthology was released. Spanning her first four releases, as well as some outside collaborations and unreleased material, this 18-track collection underscores the soprano's seemingly boundless potential--as well as some potential career obstacles ahead. Her crystalline, still-maturing voice is best showcased on classically oriented works like Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Pie Jesu," Franck's "Panis Angelicus," and her now-ubiquitous rendering of Delibes' "Flower Duet." She also excels on folk traditionals such as "She Moved Through the Fair" and "My Langan Love." But overwrought productions like the already-dated "Dream a Dream" and "Habanera," a faux-flamenco take on Bizet, nearly get the best of her. Still, her promising duet with fellow young phenom Josh Groban on "The Prayer" and her mature, dreamy reading of A Beautiful Mind's "All Love Can Be," as well as strong performances on the previously unreleased "It's the Heart That Matters Most" and "Bridge over Troubled Waters," are ample evidence of her potential for rewarding pop crossover--if she doesn't retire by 21. --Jerry McCulley

4 out of 5 stars A Beautiful, Relaxing Project.......2007-06-15

My only other experience with Charlotte Church was seeing part of a PBS special on her, where she sang songs like "Some Enchanted Evening". I actually enjoy her voice on this style of music.

I love her rendition of "Amazing Grace". She also did good on covering "Bridge Over Troubled Water", though I was disappointed she didn't try the high note on the verses as Garfunkel did. My favorite on the project was "It's the Heart That Matters Most".

If I want some beautiful sounding music to relax to while I'm working, this would be a very good project for that.

3 out of 5 stars It just cannot be the end for Charlotte's classical career! :(.......2006-08-20

I'm just shocked that Charlotte has decided to end her classical career with this mediocre assortment of her most loved pieces from her other albums! I wish that she had re-sung all of the pieces to make them sound better than ever with her mature voice! To me, it seems disgusting that anyone would want to end their career with a last album that sounds the way this album does!

Her beginning pieces (Pie Jesu, My Lagan Love, In Trutina, Panis Angelicus, and Amazing Grace) were sung at the beginning of her classical career, and you can hear her flat vowels and shaky low notes. You can also hear it in "She Moved Thru the Fair". It's really annoying!

La Pastorella is a beautiful song to sing, and Church masters it beautifully! Just Wave Hello - the Ford Anthem, is also a beautiful piece, with amazing work from the orchestra.

Ave Maria is a complete annoyance! Church lays on the high notes too much, putting too much emphasis on them, and it's an annoyance! Her vowels are also flat on the high notes - I just hate it!

Dream a Dream is a very nice piece, leaning more towards the pop scene. Church still seems to make it work, and I would listen to it all day!

The Flower Duet is a beautiful song, but Church's vocals are strained, which makes it hard to listen to with a smile on your face! It's still beautiful!

The Prayer (w/ Josh Groban) is a very nice piece, originally sung by Celine Dion. She's still a little bit flat here!

All That Love can Be is sung beautifully, completely smooth and connected. The vocals are flawless and have a mezmerizing effect.

It's the Heart that Knows is a pop piece that Church sings with strong vocals. It's just showing us that she's ending her career as a classical superstar!

Tantum Ergo, Bridge Over Troubled Water, and Sancta Maria, are all beautiful pieces!

I am a Charlotte Chruch fan, no doubt, but I really didn't like this album! I still wish that she would stay with opera, but I guess dreams don't come true! I wouldn't advise you to buy this CD - but as long as you have Voice of an Angel, Charlotte Church (the Self Titled Album) and Enchantment, there's no need for this CD!

Sorry Charlotte!

5 out of 5 stars Charlotte Church.......2006-07-29

Love that voice!! This is a great CD and any one who had not heard this young lady sing should buy it and prepare for some musical enjoyment.

2 out of 5 stars Somewhat decent but still mediocre.......2006-06-07

I am well aware of Charlotte's age. However, I am also aware of her amazing vocals and powerful range. But these things don't make you a good singer. Charlotte chose to stick to opera in most of her songs. And face it, not just anyone can do opera.

Charlotte's voice is very well trained - maybe too trained. From a very young age she's been hitting the same notes as Sarah Brightman. But I feel that Charlotte's over-worked and not to mention overdone voice has been declining tremendously.

But I guess none of this really matters now because I haven't heard her do anything classical for a while. If you want to listen to Charlotte now, go find the song 'Crazy Chick.'

If you want to listen to other angel voiced sopranos, I'd go with Sarah Brightman or Renee' Fleming.

2 out of 5 stars R&B For Charlotte .......2006-05-07

If a bird can be annoying as in a Rooster Crowing in the morning, some people will like it. A dog can bark in the nights we sleep, some People will like it. A human voice so light, so vibrated within their own dimensions, people will like it, but not I. I never really saw the beauty of opera, agitating to the ears, just like a Rooster calling on it's hens. With that said, Charlotte needs to turn to Blues Rock or R&B. Yes, Boogie style Blues Rock, she has the voice for it. No matter how many here perceive Opera or know what should sound good, no opera singer could ever sing Blues without a voice and a heart for it. Not One! So why should a girl with soulful music embedded in her, do the same? I say, "it's time to really Rock Charlotte!"

5 out of 5 stars Classic Grace.......2003-01-30

Bravo! This CD, is such a great compilation of all Charl's albums. It's sort of sad though that this was a Prelude, to a different type of music.
However I think Charlotte is just so talented and she is getting better in every album I hear her. Bravo!

5 out of 5 stars Great CD and DVD!.......2003-01-08

This is my first Charlotte cd and dvd. I wasn't really into this type of music but I work at a retail store and when I saw her cd fly of the shelf, I wanted to know what the fuss is all about so I bought this cd...and I'm glad I did. I also liked the dvd included. I was awed.

1 out of 5 stars too pretty too bad.......2002-12-27

This album is appropriately dubbed as greatest hits. Appropriately because, judging by how much the voice has deteriorated over the last 4 years, it's unlikely that we'll see more of Charlotte Church's albums. What's needed now is a skilled vocal coach who might (!) be able to restore Church's originally pretty soubrette soprano back to the way it sounded when "A voice of an angel" was recorded. Big labels, shame on you. A talent needs to be nurtured and brought up SLOWLY, so that it could first develop into something. By shamelessly exploiting Charlotte's adorable looks and youth, Sony executives have ruined a promising career before she could even develop into a real opera singer.
Charlotte, if you're reading this, STOP singing now and look for a good teacher. Or just be content as one of richest children in the world.

5 out of 5 stars This CD is SO good! A must for Charlotte Church fans!.......2002-12-20

This CD is filled with her best songs from all of her albums, including new ones. My favorite new ones are "It's The Heart That Matters Most" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water." They are all really good! It is the best! Go Charlotte!

5 out of 5 stars Gutsy and energetic; a singer's singer all the way.......2007-01-26

Possessing one of the most robust voices of any 80s pop singer, Jennifer Rush (born Heidi Stern on 9-29-60) sings like she really means everything she says. Whether it's a downtempo number like "Call My Name" or a harder- driving power-popper like the duet with Elton John "Flames Of Paradise", it is Jennifer's voice that makes everything work.

5 out of 5 stars This Jennifer Rush's rock CD.......2003-11-05

Jennifer Rush released 3 albums on Sony here in the states
in the 80's. This CD rocks. This was the second release.
She has a duet with Elton John "Flames of Paradise" and this
song is explosive. Elton John like her voice so much he asked
if he could do a duet with her-and this rocks. I am telling
you this song is awesome-Elton John can barely keep up with
her-she is just so powerful on the song. It is a great dance
song--one of the best ever recorded. The rest of the CD is more
rock sounding than the rest of Jennifer Rush's CD's but this
CD is rocking

5 out of 5 stars Power keyboard and rock ballads from one mighty voice!.......2003-10-31

I first heard of Jennifer Rush when her duet with Elton John, "Flames Of Paradise" hit the Top 40, and I was taken by the resonant, deep but exotic voice that accompanied Elton. The rest of the album is a combination of fiery guitar rock and heavy synthesizers, not like Ron Nevison's brand. Four producers cooked the broth that became Heart Over Mind, along with well-known songwriters and session musicians, and the differing styles make a symphonic mélange of 80's synth/rock guitar music.

The intense keyboards and crunchy rock guitars, the latter done here by Bon Jovi's Ritchie Sambora demonstrate that sound in "I Come Undone" which has the intensity of Cutting Crew's "I Just Died In Your Arms." Ellen Shipley, well known for her association with Belinda Carlisle's solo albums, wrote and did backing vocals for here.

Desmond Child produced and co-wrote "Down To You" call it a power keyboard ballad, highlighted by sheets of synths over which Jen's voice rises in its glory.

Harold Faltermeyer produced the title track which is symphonic keyboards and guitar that's an emotional anthem. "Look over your shoulder and then leave it behind/put all the heartbreak away/we'll start all over one step at a time/don't let the past take my place" she declares. Notable personnel: Dan Huff's guitar and Siedah Garrett's backing vocals. The most powerful track on this album, and one that leaves me short of breath.

Faltermeyer's hands are also on "Search the Sky", which is what one does when asking why love sometimes lies, looking for a reason why. Again, her voice really soars here.

"Stronghold" is another power keyboard ballad, this time an Andy Goldmark/Bruce Roberts production. She keeps the power going on in the chorus when she affirms "this time I won't let go."

"Walking talking like a flame, baby..." Yes, that upbeat song that barely cracked the Top 40, "Flames Of Paradise" with its skippy keyboards and drums, brassy synths that come in during the chorus. A rare gem that was overlooked, but then again, Elton wasn't scoring the same success in the mid-80s that he was in the 70's. This merited a Top Ten charting at the very least, as Elton and Jennifer make a great duo.

The Harold Faltermeyer-penned "Love Of A Stranger" is a slower keyboard affair that really highlights Rush's voice to an operatic splendour, with haunting backing vocals to match, including that of Rush and Siedah Garrett, who helped Michael Jackson take his "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" to #1. Another beware of love song, because "love will hold your heart for ransome here/'til it's gone and leaves you all alone." Dan Huff's fiery guitar helps her here as it did Tiffany.

Desmond Child loaned his pen and backing vocals on "Heart Wars", which from the get-go compares two people as fighting nations, asking "is this the state of all human relations/words are like weapons, take aim and fire/love loses reason in the name of reason." It calls for sunshine instead of thunder, but given the Cold War context, this song does have a subliminal political agenda. A standout cut.

A loyal "Sidekick" is what Jennifer offers to be when a man is blindingly seduced by a "flash and trash" girl in snakeskin leather, that someone to catch him when he falls and when the snakeskin girl stalls.

It's songs like this that made me wish Michael Bolton stuck to songwriting instead of singing like he normally drinks a can of Drano after every meal. "Call My Name" is a winning ballad, where Rush's operatic timbre comes in. The keyboards and backing vocals become symphonic and operatic themselves towards the end. The production of Gus Dudgeon, best known for producing Elton John's crucial 70's albums, comes through in spades.

After hearing this, I went after her Passion album, which I enjoyed immensely, but that's another review away. As for this album, it's a strong rocking powerhouse of emotional power ballads and a woman who's got a very powerful voice whose potency I can only take a little at a time.

4 out of 5 stars Wonderful Album by JENNIFER RUSH, an underappreciated artist.......2001-09-19

I love this CD! "Search the Sky" is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard. Definitely worth tracking down (it's out of print). I originally got into Jennifer because I am a HUGE Celine Dion fan and Celine covered one of Jennifer's songs (THE POWER OF LOVE, a #1 hit for both of them). The reason I picked up this one so quick is because it features a duet with Elton John, FLAMES OF PARADISE. I am also a HUGE fan of Elton John. As soon as I heard the first few seconds of this song I knew it wasn't good. It is the worst track on the album. They're voices mix together, well, not nicely. Beside that fact, this is a wonderful CD! Pick up a copy somewhere before it thoroughly becomes extinct!

4 out of 5 stars what a voice.......2001-07-28

i can't give it five stars, since i will always believe, that the international version is THE jennifer rush album. Having been crazy about this artist for years, it is an honour to give my review.

The voice: there is nothing in today's market that can compare.

The style: a stylish voice, not just delivering but interpreting the songs.

Whatever happened to here

    4 out of 5 stars The comeback begins..........2003-10-09

    Anne's career waned a bit from 1981 to 1983, but she recovered nicely with the two albums on this CD. Anne had six consecutive singles miss the #1 spot on the country charts from March 1981 to September 1983, and the accompanying albums were some of her less distinguished recordings, in my opinion. But that all changed with "A Little Good News", when the lead single and title cut took her back to the top. As one reviewer noted, it's one of the very few political message songs that Anne recorded, and it was very well-received: she received the CMA Award for Single Of The Year for it. Strong song choices abound on "A Little Good News". I've always been fond of the second #1 from this album, "Just Another Woman In Love", and the Kenny Loggins-penned "The More We Try" is a beautiful sad song. The sound was varied slightly, and she sounded like she was having fun again. Her career reinvigorated, she then released "Heart Over Mind" in 1985 and scored yet another #1 country single with "Nobody Loves Me Like You Do". This album is poppier than some of her previous works - Anne was continuing to search for that elusive pop hit during this time. [She went full-out pop on her next album, "Something To Talk About", but still only managed a #92 pop hit with "Now And Forever (You And Me)"]. Interestingly, Whitney Houston recorded two of the same songs from "Heart Over Mind" on her debut CD that was out at the same time - "Nobody Loves Me Like You Do" and "Take Good Care Of My Heart". Anne's versions are easily as good, and "Time Don't Run Out On Me" was a classic Carole King-Gerry Goffin song as well. All in all, these two albums are definite highlights of her '80s output and well-worth the purchase price.

    5 out of 5 stars Two interesting eighties albums.......2003-03-16

    The first album of this twofer, A little good news from 1983, yielded two number one country hits. The title track was something different from Anne. I'd never heard her do anything remotely political before. What I particularly like about this song is that it highlights problems without expressing an opinion on how they might be solved, only a wish for a solution. Nobody will work out anything about Anne's political opinions from this song.

    The other number one was Just another woman is love - it is the kind of song I expect from Anne, and she sings it brilliantly. There were other singles from the album, but they didn't do much, which was a pity as this is a great album full of wonderful songs.

    The second album, Heart over mind from 1984, makes a more conscious effort to win over pop fans, but ultimately it is still Anne's singing that counts. The two big hits here were Time don't run out on me and a duet with Dave Loggins, Nobody loves me like you do. Of the other songs, I first heard Our love on an album by Elkie Brooks, but I have no idea who recorded the song first. It is the last track and as such it makes a great way to end another excellent twofer in this long series.

    5 out of 5 stars One to please Tammy's fans.......2004-03-20

    By the time this album was released, nobody seemed to care much about Tammy's solo music any more except her committed fans. Tammy was only of interest to the public when recording with others, which may explain why most of her later recordings involved other singers, including her Higher ground album and her single with the KLF, Justified and ancient. This may well have been Tammy's last solo album although I know that she subsequently recorded one album with Dolly and Loretta (Honky tonk angels), one with a range of guests (Without walls) and one with George Jones (One).

    Overall, Tammy is mellower and more reflective than in the seventies but still sounding as good as ever. Gone are the songs about standing by - or standing up to - her man, that generated so much interest early in her career. Also gone are the songs about children. Of course, anybody who followed Tammy's career knows that these songs had already become a rarity.

    Bob Montgomery produced this album. A few years earlier, he was Janie Fricke's producer on a couple of albums. One of the songs that Janie recorded with Bob, Where's the fire, is covered by Tammy here. Other highlights here include Let's call it a day today, Suddenly single and What goes with blue, but there are many wonderful songs here.

    This album will certainly appeal to Tammy's committed fans though the absence of any famous or controversial songs may limit interest to others. That is a pity because there are many fine songs here that might have been hits in different circumstances - if Tammy's music had been fashionable, or if somebody else had recorded them.
