Moment of Forever

Amazon.com
Most of the songs Kris Kristofferson is famous for having written ("Me and Bobby McGee," "Help Me Make It Through the Night," "For the Good Times," "Loving Her Was Easier" and so on) appeared on his first two albums, 1970's --Kristofferson and 1971's --The Silver Tongued Devil and I. It was a spectacular entrance which forever changed country songwriting, but he has never been able to match it. So it brings great pleasure to report that Kristofferson's 1995 album, --A Moment of Forever, is his best since 1971. Part of its success is due to producer Don Was, who's performed similar resuscitations on Bonnie Raitt, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings. Was has a great ear for material, and he always insists his clients hold out for the best songs. Moreover, Was has shored up Kristofferson's musical shortcomings by giving him sharply focused, nicely harmonized arrangements executed by L.A.'s top session pros. Also reinforcing the album's musicality is Kristofferson's touring sidekick, keyboardist Danny Timms, who co-wrote three songs and fleshed out several more. Most crucial, however, is the terrific batch of new songs Kristofferson has come up with since his last studio effort five years ago, most notably the title track, a ballad with a captivating melody and an understated meditation on the way love is both transitory and timeless. --Geoffrey Himes

HE feels it in his gut!.......2003-07-23

These ARE some of the best songs he's done since the 70's. I am surprised I have not heard any of them recorded by other artist. There are a few songs on this CD that make your eyes tear up.

One thing I've noticed about music today is that there is no soul in it. Reguardless of the coincidence I have to mention Janis Joplin. She sang from her heart. You KNEW when she sang that she felt it in her gut. The same is true of Kristofferson.

People can poo poo his singing voice all they want but I think his voice is what makes his music touch me. HE feels it in his gut!

Thank you Kristofferson for sharing a bit of yourself with us. I wonder if we deserve it?

His Best Yet.......2001-06-08

I bought this CD with some trepidation. He's older now (like me) and I was of the understanding that talent "dimmed" as you aged. Was I in for a surprise! This is truly his most beautful album yet. His new songs are magnificent. Somehow, and I don't understand it, this man's songs have touched every note in a life with its share of sadness and pain, and the desire to grow. Thank you Kris for a very beautiful album. And yes, I have bought the latest and can't wait to receive it and get it on the CD player!

He's still the best.......2000-10-24

Speaking as a diehard KK fan, I rate this as one of his best collections, definitely the best in recent years. His lyrics are tightly crafted, heart-felt and as always, right on target. His voice and delivery are quintesssential KK -- deep and sexy as hell. This is an album that makes you wish you could have been there is the recording studio. Sounds like it was one terrific party. The harmonies and "echo phrasing" on this album are terrific...especially the "Between Heaven and Here" track.

The thoughts and words are beautiful and memorable!!.......2000-08-04

The title song is an appropriate beginning to a wonderful expression of love and poetry, particularly in THE PROMISE and NEW GAME NOW. Kris's voice may not be as strong as it once was,but as a fan who has most of his recordings, I can truly say that he has more heart than ever in his MOMENT OF FOREVER. I never tire of listening to the words of this gifted and sensitive artist. Each number in this collection will bring back some old memories and generate some new ones. My daughter and I had front row seats at one of his concerts many years ago. It was one of the best Mother's Day gifts I ever received. I hope that one day, Kris's valuable contributions to the music industry will be more widely recognized and rewarded.

My life in an album.......2000-07-30

Why do I hear more of my life every time I hear a new KK album.? This is by far his best work in years and I had the pleasure Of seeing him on the tour in th UK to promote it in 95 or 96 . The title song is just a gem and makes cry whenever I play it. It is so good to hear him back at doing what he does best - drawing on a colorful life to remind us that it can be cruel as well as kind , sad as well as funny. Those of us who live in the UK and know London will appreciate Casey. Do not hesitate to buy it if you thought the art of singer songwriter was dead - it just came back to life.

Customer Reviews:

I waited for this for five years.......2006-06-30

Between Amazone, Ebay and Napster, I don't usually buy CDs anymore, and I usually wait till I can buy them cheaper "new and used". When this set came out, I was excited, mainly by Disc 5, but wasn't going to spend $70 on it. I waited till it was cheap enough, and got it for Father's day this year.
It was worth the wait.

The concept is great. The packaging is great. The recording is great. Disc five is really cool for an ALW aficionado. There are a few real gems on it; my favorites are Petula Clark's "I Could Have Given You More" and "Benedicite."
I've always thought "Gus the Theatre Cat" made a great medley on the piano with "Unexpected Song" and "I DOn't Know How to Love Him," but wished there was an alternate lyric to match the other two songs. Now that I know there *is*, and it's a good lyric, it's a dream come true.
The melody of "Benedicite" is one of my favorites from _Sunset_ (the book mis-identifies it as "SUrrender"; it's actually "The Lady's Paying" and "Eternal Youth is Worth a Little Suffering"). The lyrics are the canticle from Daniel 3, which comes up every odd Sunday in the Divine Office, so it's nice to have cool music to sing it with.

I haven't bought _By Jeeves_ or _THe Beautiful Game_ yet, to it was great to sample them.

There are other parts of the CD taht aren't found in my collection. I like CD 4 "The Hits."

But the selections on CDs 1-3 don't make sense.

First, any self-respecting ALW fan has the Original London Cast of _Phantom_, so six tracks are totally useless. Why not draw from the Canadian cast with Colm Wilkinson? Or pull out some obscure recordings never published.

Why two different tracks with Michael Ball singing "Love Changes Everything", yet they're hardly any different?

On Disc 5 is "It's Only Your Lover Returning," sung by Julie Covington. It's an early draft of the song (Lloyd Webber and Rice went through several suggested titles) and quite nice. The very thing one expects on a Boxed Set.
So why have the Julie Covington "Don't Cry for Me" on disc 1?? The only difference is a few words, but it's otherwise identical. Why not Elaine Paige or Patti Lupone or Madonna?

The _Evita_ section is otherwise the best, choosing a sample from each major recording, though I'd have chosen slightly differently (as above).

There is a great selection of "Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer" from the Sydmonton festival, using the original music that was changed when _Cats_ went to Broadway_. It would have been nice if they'd included more recordings from Sydmonton, like the original lyric of "All I Ask of You" shown on the second DVD to the _Phantom_ movie.

With so many great actress-singers who've played Norma Desmond, why does the collection beat us over the head with Glenn Close?

Paul Miles Kingston must be set for life in royalties, for the number of albums the original recording of "Pie Jesu" has appeared on. "Amigos Para Siempre" is nice, but it reminds me of Shari Lewis's "The Song that Doesn't End," especially when it's been used on so many compilations.

In short, this is a great collection for the obscure material, if you can get it cheap. But for a boxed set, it's a poor sampling, drawn mostly from the most familiar recordings.

Excellent collection but BIG PUBLISHING MISTAKE! .......2006-01-10

Please beware they made a mistake on this. It's actually the shortened Ray Shell version of STARLIGHT EXPRESS from the original 1984 London cast - NOT the El Debarge single from 1987 like it says on the box. I don't know how they let that goof pass. Sorry to Ray Shell. Having said that, this is an outstanding compilation of Lloyd Webber's greatest hits.

ONE OF LLOYD WEBBER'S BEST COMPILATIONS, DESPITE A FEW FLAWS.......2005-03-21

Regardless of the fact that some of his latest efforts (most notably, The Woman in White) are disappointing, there can be little doubt that Andrew Lloyd Webber is one of the greatest composers ever to work in the musical theatre. Ever since his "Jesus Christ Superstar" hit the stage in the early 70-is, it was clear that the conception and perception of musicals are never going to be the same again. Many of his songs became standards not only in the theatre history, but also as tops on the charts. Even though he's British, his influence on the shape of the modern musical theatre expanded over the West End boundaries long ago and has thus made an enormous impact on Broadway. Two of his shows ("Cats" and "The phantom of the opera") hold the record as two the longest running shows in the history of Broadway. He has also been the only composer to have three of his shows running at Broadway concurrently. Some of his awards include three Grammies, a Golden Globe, an Oscar and a bunch of Tony awards. But perhaps most of all, Lloyd Webber is responsible for bringing the musicals and the theatre appealing to the wide audiences, who in different circumstances would not consider seeing a musical. The secret of his success is probably the mixture of beautiful and catchy melodies, interesting subject matter (though some, like Starlight Express, are too thin) and grandiose staging.

Over the years many compilations of his work have emerged. In the late 80-is and early 90-is it was the "Encore" series and lately the one-disc collection called "Gold". The one in question here can be considered one of the best currently on the market. First, it includes a 3-disc selections from all of his shows, minus the latest one, i.e., "The Woman in White", which, considering the triviality of the score, is no great lost. The fourth disc covers some of his most known songs sung by the famous artists. Then, there is the fifth disc with previously unreleased material, most of which are the songs ALW wrote with Tim Rice for various artists during the 70-is. The disks are all neatly packed in a hardcover book that features 67 pages of pictures and text with information about each of ALW's shows. One of the other assets here is the perfect sound quality, since all of the tracks have been digitally remastered.

Here are my basic impressions and comments regarding the material on the discs:

* Disc #1 has the selections from "Jesus Christ Superstar", "Evita", "Cats" and "Song & Dance". The Superstar material mostly comes from the Concept Recording. Although the songs sound beautiful as always, their orchestration is a bit dated now. Only Steve Balsamo's "Gethsemane" from the 1996 revival cast has a modern rock sound. "Evita" comes with the material from all of the major recordings: London, Broadway and the movie productions, as well as the Concept album. No objections here; since this is one of ALW's most satisfying works, every song is just perfect, although Patti LuPone, the Broadway and overall the best Evita, is left with only a couple of lines. With the selections from "Cats", however, I have some doubts. A plus to the choice of the "Jellicle ball" impressive orchestral sequence from the 1998 movie version and "Mister Mistoffelees" from the 1981 London cast. One of the best known ALW's songs, "Memory", also comes from that album. It's a pretty version and Elaine Paige's rendition cannot be matched, but why include this when the definite version, featuring an 80-piece orchestra and Elaine Paige with much better interpretation, can be found in the same movie version. Thusly, one has to buy Elaine Paige's latest 2-disc compilation "Centre Stage: The very best of Elaine Paige" to get that one. And "Gus the theatre cat" is more a recital than a song, so there was not much point in including that. Marti Webb brings her vocal charm to the "Song & Dance" sequence, Sarah Brightman sings "Unexpected song" with her famous soprano, but as much as I like her version, Bernadette Peters, who was in this show on Broadway is strangely left out here.

* Disc # 2 starts with "Starlight Express". This was never one of my favorite ALW's shows; the plot is even lighter than in "Cats" and the 1984 original cast recording is terribly dated. Yet, here we have one terrific duet, "I am starlight" from the original together with three songs from the later revivals and it seems that fresh orchestrations were just the thing Starlight needed. My favorite remains a touchy ballad, "Next time you fall in love". "Requiem" is the most solemn of all ALW's compositions, written in 1985 to commemorate the death of his father. Placido Domingo's tenor rides together with the chorus all the way through the strong "Hosanna", only to be joined by Sarah Brightman in the final moments of this song. She then gives an echoing deliverance of "Pie Jesu". What can be said of ALW's next show, "The Phantom of the Opera"? A phenomenon in its own right, it's easy to see from the six numbers included here why this is one of the best and most beloved musicals of all time. The cast, the music, the story - everything is perfect. Although "Aspects of love" was never a popular hit, it does have some of the most beautiful love melodies ALW has ever written. "Love changes everything" sung by Michael Ball is probably one of the best tunes ever about love. The rest of the selected material here has a dreamy love flavor and the melodies find their way into your brain in the best Lloyd Webber way.

* ALW's first musical, "Joseph and the amazing Technicolor dreamcoat" was more successful in its revival form than the original from the 70-is. The three songs included here are sung by the show stars, Jason Donovan and Donny Osmond. Maria Friedman was not a lucky choice to play the narrator, as the track from the 1998 movie version shows. "By Jeeves" was ALW's only big flop when it came to the stage in the 70-is. The 1995 revival sounds much better though, full of funny numbers in the best manner of the musical comedy. "Travel hopefully" remains one of the show's highlights on this compilation. "Sunset Boulevard" comes next. "Sunset" remains for me one of Webber's best scores; lush and beautiful. I listen to the original cast recording with Patti LuPone all the time. However, here most of the songs are performed by Glenn Close. A big mistake. If you've ever listened the American premiere recording with her, you'll know what I am talking about. She may have a strong stage presence, but her vocal abilities are too limited, and her aggressive approach to the role lacks any subtlety. Therefore, the two big numbers from this show, "With one look" and "As if we never said goodbye" are ruined by the fact she can't sing. The same goes for the American Joe Gillis, who was played by Alan Campbell. Luckily, Patti LuPone and Kevin Anderson, the original Norma and Joe from the London production, make their brief entrance here with the "Perfect year"; enough to show how better they are. The funny thing is, on the jacket and inside of it, Glenn Close and Alan Campbell are credited as performers in this song as well. If this was a mistake on ALW's part, it was a good one. The next ALW's show, "Whistle down the wind" was never a critic's dear and yet the audiences rushed in to see it in London. The score brings back ALW to his rock and roll roots of the seventies and the story is quite interesting. But the selections here are not the happiest, since the cast recording boasts with much better songs. And finally, "The Beautiful Game". Again, we have one of those ALW's shows that is worth in its individual parts rather than as a whole. "Our kind of love" and "Let us love in peace" are two catchy ballads. The latter is a nice amalgam version not available elsewhere. The two other tracks here I could live without.

* Disc # 4 has the songs from all the above shows performed by different artists. The assembled tracks have their pros and cons. For example, we have some previously unreleased stuff, like Dame Kiri Te Kanawa's operettic rendition of "The heart is slow to learn", or a stunning and epic "A kiss is a terrible thing to waste" from "Whistle down the wind", performed by The Metal Philharmonic Orchestra. Then again, what was the point in including almost identical tracks as the ones on the previous disks? So we have Michael Ball again singing "Love changes everything" with only a bit different orchestration; Sarah Brightman comes out again with the same Phantom duets, but only with the different male singers. It would be much more appropriate to include tracks from the Toronto Cast of the Phantom, with Colm Wilkinson. Other pop deliverances (Tina Arena's "Whistle down the wind", Barbra Streisand's "As if we never said goodbye", Boyzone's "No matter what" and many more) were wisely chosen. Patti LuPone is again nowhere to be found and Petula Clark's "With one look" sounds too worn-out.

* The last disc is probably the one that will be of most interest to Lloyd Webber aficionados. It consists of entirely previously unreleased material ALW for the most part wrote for various artists during his early years, with Tim Rice. Some of these tunes, not successful as a singles, were later used in his shows. Thus "Down thru' summer" became "Buenos Aires"in Evita, "Try it and see", an unsuccessful attempt for the Eurovision was used for "King Herod's song" in "Superstar" and so on. Some of these songs are nicely made pop songs: "Make believe love", ALW's first recorded composition, for which he provided the lyrics; "Goodbye Seattle", sung by Paul Raven, who later became Gary Glitter; "Come back Richard, your country needs you", from a never made musical, sung here by Tim Rice, or Latin flavored "Magdalena", with Tony Christie singing. My all time favorite here is a song called "It's easy for you", sung by none other than Elvis Presley himself. Lloyd Webber and Rice sent him a demo recording that he accepted and recorded this live version a couple of weeks before he died. It's amazing to hear how his voice remained in the perfect shape. Also, there is a track of Andrew Lloyd Webber singing "Policle dogs and Jellicle cats" while plying the piano. His voice doesn't sound bad at all.


Taken as a whole, this compilation makes a perfect birthday or Christmas present to any fan of Andrew Lloyd Webber shows, or just anybody interested in some of the best tunes from the modern era of the musical theatre; despite the flaws I mentioned above. To the former, it may just be the final addition for the Andrew Lloyd Webber collection.

SUCH MAGICAL MUSIC OF THE NIGHT!.......2003-01-19

"Evita." "Sunset Blvd." "Starlight Express." "Jesus Christ Superstar." "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." "Requiem." "Aspects of Love." The man who is the most recognized composer in the history of the musical theatre, the man who has won more Tonys than any other composer, the man who boasts the best-selling show of all time ("The Phantom of the
Opera") and the longest-running show of all time ("Cats"), the man whose homes are filled with three Grammys, five Oliviers, a Golden Globe, and Oscar and too many other honors and hosannas to mention, the man knighted in 1992 certainly doesn't need an introduction. Now Decca Broadway pays tribute to Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber with "Now and Forever," a spectacular 5-CD set compiled and produced by Sir Andy himself. It's cheaper than a
ticket to "The Producers" ... and more much exciting. This treasure trove contains highlights from all of Webber's shows, and a bonus disc of tunes sung by Betty Buckley, Barbara
Streisand, Jose Carreras, Boy George, Charlotte Church, Madonna, Tom Jones, Petula Clark, even Elvis! A must for lovers of theatre---and good music.

A Must Have for Sir Andrew fans.......2002-05-21

This five-CD collection of Andrew Lloyd Webber's career is fantastic. It leaves virtually no stone unturned. I have no doubt that diehard Webber fans will love this, especially for the 5th disc entitled "From the Vaults." This disc alone is worth the price as it contains tunes never before heard by the typical fan. Who knew Elvis did a Lloyd Webber tune?!? I didn't! Also the tune "Benedictine" which the composer wrote for his most recent marriage is not only pretty, but it has the same medley as "The Lady's Paying" from "Sunset Blvd." which I found highly enjoyable. Another great track is the composer himself singing a cut song from "Cats" entitled "Pollicle Dogs and Jellicle Cats" which has the same tune as "Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats," but to hear Sir Andrew sing is a blast...he sounds a lot like Al "Year of the Cat" Stewart.
The cuts from the musicals are great but are likely owned by ALW fans as they are on the original cast albums. And I'm glad that there were tunes included from the composers most recent efforts which have yet to make it beyond London (Whistle Down the Wind, Beautiful Game).
My only complaint is the inclusion of way too many tracks by Sarah Brightman. She must've received a great divorce settlement that included having tunes on any ALW collection until the end of time!! Her interpretations of some of the tunes were limp and uninspired. I would've much rather heard casts from around the world rather than yet another song by this disdainful soprano! How about Colm Wilkinson's version of "Music of the Night" from the original Canadian cast of "Phantom"? Or Michael Crawford's version of "Unexpected Song"? What? No Betty Buckley from "Sunset Blvd."? And of course there are songs you KNOW are going to be on the collection before you even listen to it as they have been on EVERY ALW collection for the past decade or so.
A great collection but too much Sarah Brightman!

Amazon.com essential recording

Horowitz's Pictures is one of his most controversial recordings. In true Romantic tradition, he made changes in Mussorgsky's much-maligned score. Ignore those strict constructionists who hold that the composer's word is law, and you'll revel in the sheer high spirits and unabashed virtuosity of this electrifying performance. Few make this piece as exciting as Horowitz. The fillers offer his inimitable versions of various Russian favorites along with his not-to-be-missed transcriptions of Carmen highlights and a Sousa Stars and Stripes Forever as you've never heard it. --Dan Davis

Horowitz Review.......2007-01-10

This recording was made in 1947 and the recording quality reflects that. It sounds like the CD was made from a scratchy record with no clean up.

I have heard better Horowitz performances. This one is very mechanical, without much color or feeling.

No better place to hear musical genius!.......2005-08-22

Horowitz' arrangement of Stars and Stripes Forever is possibly the most incredible piece I have ever heard (and I don't even like that song very much.) If you have never heard it in its entirety, you have really been missing something. The first half is really good but the second half is mind-blowing. Horowitz was a genius!!!

The other works on the disc are great too but I prefer more recent recordings such as Evgeny Kissin's Pictures at an Exhibition. Of course it's not that Evgeny plays it better than Vladimir but the recording quality has much improved since 1947.

Whatever you do, don't miss Stars and Stripes Forever. You will never forget it.

Incredible performance, scratchy sound........2000-12-17

A very good CD, but some of the titles are also on the Encores CD, and all the titles except the Rachmaninoff (recorded in 1979) are in mono. Besides the Rachmaninoff, the recording dates range from 1928 (whew!) to 1956. That said, this is Horowitz! It's great! I'd pay the money for the Prokofiev and Danse Excentrique alone. I just want to warn you that this is not the crystal-clear CD sound we're used to.

I undoubtedly declare that Horowitz is the best........2000-12-03

You may know that Horowitz is a TOP pianist. But there is a one more. This recording is the most suitable recording that shows the differences beteween Horowitz and other pianists. In other words, this recording represents the genuine playstyle of Horowitz. One of the conspicuous specialty of Horowitz is ffff. The Grate Gate At Kiev (Pictures at an Exhibition) needs exteremly strong finger power.(Self-confidence of piano touch) Also to "Prokofiev sonata No.7","The Stars and Stripes Forever", the same can be told. I want to say, It`s needless to say who is the second, at least in these pieces. ( the gap between 1st and 2nd is too wide )(And, I`m not saying abut all the pieces of Horowitz. I`m only telling you about the pieces in this record.) I have an absolute pitch, and can compose a little.So believe me. Have a nice day!

P.S. To music lover who want`s to listen awesome 'Carmen Vars.' : Horowitz recorded 'carmen vars' not only once. (because it revised several times.) Carmen.V. in this CD is different from "Horowitz Encore". After buing this record, listen carefully the samples (in Horowitz Encore). They are not the same. (Both has it`s tastes.)

Horowitz is amazing as usual, BUT..........1998-09-27

Horowitz is amazing as we have all come to expect, but at the time that Mussorgsky's PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION was recorded, recording techiniques had not been perfected as they have today. The rest of the CD is outstanding. If you are a Horowitz fan, I highly recommend this recording.

Horowitz Transcriptions Before Volodos.......2007-03-15

Valery Kuleshov, a silver medalist at a recent Van Cliburn Piano Competition, does an excellent job performing original pieces and transcriptions by Horowitz. The huge splash that Volodos made with his Horowitz playing has unnecessarily, it seems, overshadowed Kuleshov and his like (e.g., Ladislav Fanzowitz). Kuleshov has a tremendous technique that brings these transcriptions to light. The only recording of Danse Macabre available is the old Horowitz one from the 1940s or 1950s. Kuleshov's recording of it takes advantage of modern-day equipment and his performance of it is spectacular! Also, the less played Liszt-Horowitz Hung. Rhap 19 is a breath-taking transcription that Kuleshov devours, completely. Some other little known Horowitz originals appear here as well such as the Waltz in F minor, Danse excentrique, and the Etude-fantasie. The recording production is top of the drawer; clear, clean, and a good sounding piano. Highly recommended!

Virtuoso Transcriptions for Piano.......2002-07-22

Vladimir Horowitz was a musician caught between two eras. At the beginning of his career, arrangements by Liszt and Busoni were still in vogue, and it was expected that touring virtuosi would treat the audience to some of their own. By the time of Horowitz' retirement in 1953, arrangements were beginning to become unfashionable, and with his return to public performance in 1965, Horowitz played fewer of his own arrangements.

The art of transcribing works for piano seems to be enjoying something of a comeback these days. A number of pianists have taken to copying Horowitz' transcriptions from recordings or piano rolls (it's also no secret that printed versions of Horowitz' arrangements and original compositions have been circulating over the Internet for years). Arcadi Volodos has received a lot of publicity for this, but Valery Kuleshov is the only pianist before the public who spent time going over them with Horowitz himself. His copies of Horowitz' arrangements are accurate, and his performances of these works are mostly satisfactory. There is one piece here which doesn't quite "work," and that is Kuleshov's version of Liszt's Vallée d'Obermann. When performing this epic piece in 1966, Horowitz made some minor refinements which tightened the compositional structure and enhanced the piece harmonically--all in the authentic Liszt tradition. Kuleshov has made some further changes here. But where Horowitz' alterations clarify Liszt's intent, Kuleshov's re-workings merely come across as note-spinning.

Many of Horowitz' most popular transcriptions are here, including his amplifications of Liszt's rarely played Hungarian Rhapsody No. 19, Horowitz' arrangement of the Mendelssohn/Liszt Wedding March, and, of course, the ever popular Stars and Stripes Forever. Also here is Kuleshov's version the Carmen Variations--which is an amalgamation of Horowitz' many versions of this work. Even more interesting are the recordings of Horowitz' few original compositions, the manuscripts of which are in the Horowitz Collection at Yale University. Kuleshov's is the only recording so far of Horowitz' charming Etude in E-flat, which the pianist composed as a student and apparently never performed after graduating.

Kuleshov is a superb pianist blessed with a solid technique and healthy temperament. What he lacks is the demon possessed quality which marked some of Horowitz' most astonishing performances. Kuleshov, of course, has the added benefit of vastly improved recording technology, which results in finer sound and--thanks to editing--more note perfect performances than Horowitz could achieve in the days of 78-RPM, non-edited recordings. This also conveniently gathers many of Horowitz' arrangements on one disc, whereas the Maestro's own performances are scattered over several CDs from different recording companies.

Horowitz composed many more transcriptions that the hour's worth here. A follow-up disc is warranted.

Most of the songs Kris Kristofferson is famous for having written ("Me and Bobby McGee," "Help Me Make It Through the Night," "For the Good Times," "Loving Her Was Easier" and so on) appeared on his first two albums, 1970's --Kristofferson and 1971's --The Silver Tongued Devil and I. It was a spectacular entrance which forever changed country songwriting, but he has never been able to match it. So it brings great pleasure to report that Kristofferson's 1995 album, --A Moment of Forever, is his best since 1971. Part of its success is due to producer Don Was, who's performed similar resuscitations on Bonnie Raitt, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings. Was has a great ear for material, and he always insists his clients hold out for the best songs. Moreover, Was has shored up Kristofferson's musical shortcomings by giving him sharply focused, nicely harmonized arrangements executed by L.A.'s top session pros. Also reinforcing the album's musicality is Kristofferson's touring sidekick, keyboardist Danny Timms, who co-wrote three songs and fleshed out several more. Most crucial, however, is the terrific batch of new songs Kristofferson has come up with since his last studio effort five years ago, most notably the title track, a ballad with a captivating melody and an understated meditation on the way love is both transitory and timeless. --Geoffrey Himes

HE feels it in his gut!.......2003-07-23

These ARE some of the best songs he's done since the 70's. I am surprised I have not heard any of them recorded by other artist. There are a few songs on this CD that make your eyes tear up.

One thing I've noticed about music today is that there is no soul in it. Reguardless of the coincidence I have to mention Janis Joplin. She sang from her heart. You KNEW when she sang that she felt it in her gut. The same is true of Kristofferson.

People can poo poo his singing voice all they want but I think his voice is what makes his music touch me. HE feels it in his gut!

Thank you Kristofferson for sharing a bit of yourself with us. I wonder if we deserve it?

His Best Yet.......2001-06-08

I bought this CD with some trepidation. He's older now (like me) and I was of the understanding that talent "dimmed" as you aged. Was I in for a surprise! This is truly his most beautful album yet. His new songs are magnificent. Somehow, and I don't understand it, this man's songs have touched every note in a life with its share of sadness and pain, and the desire to grow. Thank you Kris for a very beautiful album. And yes, I have bought the latest and can't wait to receive it and get it on the CD player!

He's still the best.......2000-10-24

Speaking as a diehard KK fan, I rate this as one of his best collections, definitely the best in recent years. His lyrics are tightly crafted, heart-felt and as always, right on target. His voice and delivery are quintesssential KK -- deep and sexy as hell. This is an album that makes you wish you could have been there is the recording studio. Sounds like it was one terrific party. The harmonies and "echo phrasing" on this album are terrific...especially the "Between Heaven and Here" track.

The thoughts and words are beautiful and memorable!!.......2000-08-04

The title song is an appropriate beginning to a wonderful expression of love and poetry, particularly in THE PROMISE and NEW GAME NOW. Kris's voice may not be as strong as it once was,but as a fan who has most of his recordings, I can truly say that he has more heart than ever in his MOMENT OF FOREVER. I never tire of listening to the words of this gifted and sensitive artist. Each number in this collection will bring back some old memories and generate some new ones. My daughter and I had front row seats at one of his concerts many years ago. It was one of the best Mother's Day gifts I ever received. I hope that one day, Kris's valuable contributions to the music industry will be more widely recognized and rewarded.

My life in an album.......2000-07-30

Why do I hear more of my life every time I hear a new KK album.? This is by far his best work in years and I had the pleasure Of seeing him on the tour in th UK to promote it in 95 or 96 . The title song is just a gem and makes cry whenever I play it. It is so good to hear him back at doing what he does best - drawing on a colorful life to remind us that it can be cruel as well as kind , sad as well as funny. Those of us who live in the UK and know London will appreciate Casey. Do not hesitate to buy it if you thought the art of singer songwriter was dead - it just came back to life.
