cd arrived fast, in excellent shape as promised, well packaged to protect it during shipment. I'd heard the CD during an exercise class and had trouble trying to get it from other vendors so especially appreciated Amazon.

5 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL CD.......2007-05-08

I was so happy to find this on CD I have the original on a cassette from childhood. I loved it then and now and now my children listen and love it.

5 out of 5 stars Good upbeat working music.......2007-03-08

I love these CDS . . what a brilliant idea to add a beat to the most popular classical songs of all time. It is great upbeat music that gets you going. I specifically use it for when I need a boost to get me going on housework. It get you in just the right mood to start working. My kids love it too.

1 out of 5 stars PLEASE!.......2006-06-07

i bought this CD because it had all my fave fred hammond songs on it. but little did i know that they are all, ALL bad versions of them! you can't even sing along! this CD sucks! DO NOT BUY THIS CD!

5 out of 5 stars Glorious.......2006-02-09

A spectacular CD with remastered studio versions of some of Fred Hammond's best songs. It's a great CD, you cannot go wrong with this one.

My favorite is the remastered studio version of "We're Blessed". This alone makes the entire CD worth it. But there are 13 other songs on this CD that are #1's in my book.

"When The Spirit of the Lord" has a new hot intro. "No Weapon" sounds really great in the studio. "Let the Praise Begin" is exceptional.

"You Are The Living Word" and "Please Don't Pass Me By" are some of the album's sweetest and most intimate worship songs.

This is a brilliant CD. I praise the Lord for this music. May Fred Hammond continue from glory to glory.

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding!.......2005-05-09

This was a truly inspirational CD. A beautiful CD, you could listen to every moving song--every song.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome man of God.......2003-10-17

Every since I was introduced to Fred Hammond's cd the INNER COURT I have been hooked. The man is truely a man of GOD. If this cd doesn't move your spirit then you must be spirtually dead.

5 out of 5 stars Classics.......2003-10-11

This album is a must have for old and new Fred Hammond fans. It goes back to the "I Am Persuaded" album and pulls out a classic with "I'm Not Afraid", which is still one of my favorites. Then it visits his "Deliverance" album with "Unconditional" and "My Heart Depends On You". "Deliverance" was a pretty good album except for a few songs. It also includes tracks from his new DVD. "Show Yourself Strong" is off the chain!! Believe that. Then, it goes to his most recent hits and I don't think I need to say anything about his past three albums. If you don't have the DVD of Pages of Life, Vol III, you should buy this album just for those three songs at the end. Plus if you don't have his first two solo projects, this album has the best songs from those albums. Buy and enjoy.

Album Description

Mac Davis, who penned the Elvis hit "In the Ghetto", was asked by a record exec to write another song with a strong musical "hook." The result--"Baby Don't Get Hooked on Me"--went to #1 (and platinum) and launched Davis on a successful recording, TV and movie career. The Baby album and its successful follow-up are included here.

4 out of 5 stars STOP AND SMELL THE HOOKS!.......2005-12-24

MAC DAVIS-BABY DON'T GET HOOKED ON ME/STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES: This "two-fer" CD (plus bonus tracks, no less) combines a pair of the Lubbock, Texas songwriter/singer's best known albums, the title tracks of each representing two of his biggest hits. Amounting to a better retrospective than his official "Greatest Hits" (at least, after you separate the wheat from the chaff), the four tacked on cuts alone include the smug novelty singalong IT'S HARD TO BE HUMBLE (a pretty fair summary of Davis' often tongue in cheek composing style), country charter TEXAS IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR, and the autobiographical ROCK N' ROLL I GAVE YOU ALL THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE. All of these fine "Lost 45s" are nearly impossible to find nowadays. Among the twenty other songs here, you get the number one anti-commitment classic BABY DON'T GET HOOKED ON ME, the seductive slices NAUGHTY GIRL and ONE HELL OF A WOMAN, and the gospel-colored STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES. All make for guilty pleasure listening, even if there are sometimes long stretches of audio Nutri Sweet in between. When Davis writes a good'un (Kenny Rogers, Elvis, and Gallery all did fine by his SOMETHIN'S BURNIN', IN THE GHETTO, and I BELIEVE IN MUSIC respectively), everything is right in pop music circles. I suggest you do what I did---burn your own customized anthology from the dozen or so pop picks here, and leave that other album's worth of pablum for the elevators and dentist offices. RATING: FOUR HOOKS


5 out of 5 stars Classic.......2005-09-24

I've been looking for "Stop and Smell the Roses" ever since my cassette tape bit the dust 3 years ago. All the songs I grew up to in a better quality. I've even tried to find MP3 downloads for these songs and couldn't! I'm so relieved I finally got what I've been searching so long for.

4 out of 5 stars How Nice To Be A Regular Member of the Public..........2003-03-15

"Poor boy don't need 'lectronics to make no Rock 'n Roll...Poor boy got Boogie-Woogie born right in his soul..." and the lyrics (from "Poor Boy Boogie") goes to tell us that you'd only need sticks, spoons and friends to make good music. This was in the early 70's...when most of us young folks were listening to heavy electrified UNDERGROUND!...But (believe it or not) Mac Davis could, at that time, divert our attention from Henrix and Grand Funk Railroad to his kind of music....Good deep voice, catchy tunes and the lyrics made us feel that, well, we belonged! With the exemption of "Baby Don't Get Hooked on Me" which is everybody's favourite...nice melody....but the words can be dangerous....just don't sing it to your sweetheart....! Get this CD! These songs will last for many years to come...good to listen to while drivin' too!

5 out of 5 stars Great songs by a GREAT entertainer.......2002-09-22

One of the best performers ever. A note for the person who wondered why "Convoy and Rhinestone Cowboy" are missing from the album. Convoy was done by C.W. McCall, and Rhinestone Cowboy was done by Glen Campbell. They shouldn't be on this one!

Years ago I got hold of several of the "Hooked on the Classics" and have
enjoyed them very much. (They are great background music for doing housework)

I have been searching for copies on CD for a long time.

Thanks for tracking them down for me.

I shall keep looking for "Hooked on Classics #2 and "Hooked on Swing" as
well.

cd arrived fast, in excellent shape, well packaged to protect it during shipment. I'd heard versions of it but had trouble trying to get it from other than amazon and amazon vendors. It's fun and bouncy and great to recognize bits of favorites.

4 out of 5 stars A GREAT WAY TO INTRODUCE THE CLASSICS..........2007-05-27

Just like some other reviewer, I too was a kid when this album came out. I believe it was the first of a series of albums based on the same concept: big medleys where parts of classical music is sewed together with some kind of disco beat.

Yeah, it sounds awful... almost a sin.

But those who already love classical music are not the main target here. I was a kid then and knew nothing of classical music. And yet, these medleys really hooked me to the classics.

It was only after that album that I started to think "wow, these guys [Beethoven, Bach, Rachmaninoff and others] really wrote wonderful music... let me hear more of them".

Today, records like this sound horrible to me. But they had their function. In fact, for me, that's the only way to look at them: a very good source of introduction to classical music.

1 out of 5 stars I am pretty sure I've not heard worse "classical" music..........2007-05-27

This is easily one of the most offensive albums I've ever heard. It's one thing to dumb down classical music or only play selections of tracks with the biggest finales to win people over. I mean, take something like Fantasia...I have no problem with them taking shorter pieces of a whole to expose such beautiful and novel music to popular culture.

However, this is just unfathomably bad. The drum machine used is basically a trumped up metronome. It sounds like something you would play to schoolkids teaching them at the age of seven about keeping a beat. It's dreadful. And the orchestral component is incredibly thin and overly dramatic. There is not a cheesier recording of any of these pieces in the library...I'm sure.

There are countless compilations of well-known classical pieces out there - do yourself a favor and pick out one of those instead as an introduction to classical music, and avoid the pervasive My First Drum Machine insanity of this horrible attempt to popularize classical music.

5 out of 5 stars Not your average classical.......2007-01-18

This cd is definitely not your average elevator or waiting room music. The music refuses to be tuned out or ignored as so often happens with classical music. It is engaging without being over-powering, playful and yet seriously classical at the same time. For classical music lovers this cd is a must hear!

4 out of 5 stars Catchy music.......2007-01-11

Sure, the beat is repeatative, but you have to like the way the music flows from one well known melody to another. If nothing else this may inspire you to find an actual recording of one of the pieces and hear it just to find out what the composer wrote. I like it still, after all these years.

      If you want great music to exercise by, this is it! It can make your time on the treadmill or exercise bike fly by. If you're new to it, try the "If You Knew Sousa" tracks. I promise you won't be sorry! Have fun! Exercise!

      4 out of 5 stars A fun way to introduce Classical Music.......2002-06-05

      This compilation Album represents the best that the Hooked on Classics series have to offer. THis is an excellent way to make Classical Music interesting to those who might think Classical Music is "boring".

      Louis Clark has arranged some of the most popular composers and their most popular works in a way that will keep toes tapping and hands clapping to the fast tempos while some of the slower tracks (Hooked on Romance) become warm melodies to the ear.

      As usual, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra of londa, plays the arrangements with seeming ease and perfecton. The orcehstras ability to play these arrangements is more than just "playing along with a Rock beat" but, a wonderful demonstration of musical perfection.

      Louis Clark createtd the hooked on Classics world, with Albums 1 - 3 and has been followed by others who try to copy his recipe (Hooked on Classics 4 - Hooked on Baroque and Hooked on Classics 5)but never seem to capture the gleam of the original three albums.

      5 out of 5 stars Hooked on series.......2006-12-08

      The idea behind the Hooked on series of CD's is to give a smattering of excerpts from various music forms ie. classics, 60's music, country, Christmas etc. This has been achieved. The Hooked on Christmas CD with its 44 tunes is one of the best I have heard and I have owned a copy since it was first released. If you are looking for complete carols then this is not for you but if you wish to hear 44 bits of carols that I am sure most of you are familiar with then this is for you. ENJOY!!!

      I am excited about this album. It has one problem that is irritating. Many of the songs end abruptly and usually without really ending. I think they tried to put too much on one album.
      GREAT MUSIC, too bad they short change it with almost every song.
