2002 AZ Hard Rock/Metal band of the Year 2004 Hard Rock Cafe Phx Winners 2005 Zippo Hot Tour contestant
Product Description
2005 sees the return of Phoenix, AZ's top local band THE FURNACE. After playing to a sold out crowd for their cd release, THE FURNACE successfully unloaded "Find A Way", a 7 song demo to the masses. 7 songs is all this band needs to deliver their "meat-n-potatoes" style of raw rock. Radio favorite "Comfort" sees new light on this disc. The polished, yet organic production can be attributed to Grammy award winning producer/engineer Jeff Thomas (Metallica, Smashing Pumpkins).
Find A Way,Furnace,N/A,Rock,Rock/Pop,good songwriting never goes outta style. that's why you should buy this cd immediately...

Whether you're cranking up Smilin' in the End, or slow jammin to I Needed to Fall, this is one CD you'll want to keep close by at all times.
Like I said, REO Greatwagon delivers the goods.
It wouldn't get any better than this..........2007-06-23
It's just not REO. It doesn't sound the same, it doesn't feel the same.
REO is a classic and REO is all the fans wanted to hear. Somewhere, in a shaded distance, "I needed to fall" finds its way home and slightly brings back the powerful, unmistakable REO sound. But only for a split second and like a familiar face in the crowd, it's gone.
It's an honest album. But maybe it was never meant to be recorded.
With no computers, no fancy editing tools, the remastered version of "Hi Infidelity" is a much better choice for the hardcore REO fan. And it gets better every time you hear it. "Find your own way home" doesn't.

A Chorus Line may be better known, but Dreamgirls was a towering achievement for director Michael Bennett. Loosely based on the Supremes' story, the 1982 musical told a typical show-biz tale of fame, backbiting, and survival. As is often the case for one-night only events, the cast in this concert version (recorded in New York on September 24, 2001) is led by an eye-popping assortment of Broadway powerhouses: Lillias White (The Life), Audra McDonald (Ragtime, Marie Christine), and Heather Headley (Ragtime). McDonald reveals a previously undisclosed comic streak, while Headley confirms her status as a rising star. Reprising the role of Effie Melody White (created by Jennifer Holliday), White belts the classic "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going." But the beauty of Dreamgirls is that it's so packed with catchy, Motown-influenced R&B numbers that each lead can sink her teeth into some prime material and get a turn in the spotlight. This double-CD set really makes you wish you'd been there when the show was recorded: you can hear the crowd going berserk at times, and the temptation is strong to do the same thing in the comfort of your living room. --Elisabeth VincentelliCustomer Reviews:
Dreamgirls 2001.......2007-06-27
Not the real "DREAM" experience.......2007-04-04
Forget about the film sountrack. Get this CD set. And it's far better than the original cast recording which goes lacking. More songs and more everything that makes a live performance just what it is. Live (compared to film where anything can be done to enhance a performance!) -- the energy, the excitement and the performances make this a rare treat for anyone wanting to share in the real DREAM experience.
Isn't a full Broadway revival long over due. But wait: I've heard rumors that a rvial may be "in the works. I certainly hope so. Maybe this time it will receive the Tony award it deserved in the first place.
Absolutely brilliant!.......2007-01-28

The Most Beautiful Recorded Tenor Voice?.......2005-06-22
My claim is easy to test. This website has CDs with excerpts for listening to the best tenors of the 20th century, including Enrico Caruso, John McCormack, Giovanni Martinelli, Beniamino Gigli, Tito Schipa, Richard Tauber, Richard Crooks, Jussi Bjoerling, Morton Downey, Mario Lanza, Giuseppe di Stefano, Nicolai Gedda, Jan Peerce, Leopold Simoneau, Fritz Wunderlich, Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras. Of course, the earlier the career, the greater the damage to the recorded voice from primitive technology. Heard live, who knows which voice was most beautiful? But at least we have what earlier centuries could only imagine: lasting copies of live performances. Listen to Kenny Baker's voice on tracks 2 and 8 of BABES IN TOYLAND, and then compare.
The numbers from THE RED MILL will make you want to hear more. This operetta, also composed by Victor Herbert, was first produced in 1906, three years after BABES IN TOYLAND. "Moonbeams" (well sung by Eileen Farrell) is lovely; "Because You're You" (a duet between Farrell and Felix Knight) is quite simple but surprisingly affecting. The last two are the best: "Every Day Is Ladies' Day with Me," and "In Old New York." They are patter songs, perhaps inspired by, and surely as deft, as the ones that Gilbert and Sullivan were writing two decades earlier. Both are sung by Wilbur Evans, in a rich baritone, with perfect enunciation and marvelous comic flair. Great fun!
The selections on this CD were recorded in 1944 and 1945, then released in 1946 on both 78s and 10" LPs. For this CD, they were remastered from wartime lacquered-glass originals. Baker and Evans emerge in radiant form, surely much closer to live sound than reached our family radio via AM transmission 65 years ago. The orchestral and choral sound is less attractive. Poorly miked?
Very, very truncated........2002-12-09
incomplete pleasure.......2002-11-09
John McGlinn will be out with a complete BABES soon - and there is a lot of music in it - so you may want to wait.
Finally available on CD!.......2002-08-01
The six selections form THE RED MILL offer a nice bonus, and the selections are well sung.

Another Collection You Wonr Find Anywhere else.......2003-05-06
Continuing their unique practice of giving us both well known hits and impossible to find rarities, Eric presents Volume 2 of "Hard to Find Orchestral Instrumentals". This one is, in my opinion, even better than the first.
First off, the sound quality of this disk is ASTOUNDING. ERIC has gotten the various reissue departments to provide them with absolute first generation mono and stereo masters and this CD proves it. The aural quality is breathtaking. The fact that Orchestral music is so beautifully suited for true stereo playback is exhibited here, as a whopping 15 of the 20 tracks are True Stereo and sound magnificent.
There are, of course, the big soundtrack hits here, like 'The Day The Rains Came" "Rocky", "Ben Casey", "Theme from The Apartment", and " Nadias Theme". All top 30 and well remembered. However, for this 43 year old fan, it was the some of the lessor known tracks, in particulatr the 1963 Colpix low level charter "Theme From The Long Ships" that really makes this collection the gem that it is. Outstanding tracks include "Theme From The Sundowners" , "The Dark At The Top of The Stairs" and "I Will Follow Him" , all tracks that will suddenly sound familiar again after first listen.
Therein lies the BEST part of this collection. When you put this on your player, you will be treated to a nostalgic feast,
a time when the magic of Orchestral music still ruled the charts, and existed in all our homes. And you'll certainly remember most of these once you hear them, which is the fun part!!
There arent enough great things I can say about this collection AND its sister CD "Hard To Find pop Instrumentals- Part 2" I personally liked this volume better, but if you dont have either yet, give yourself a musical treat, and some REAL listening enjoyment and pick these up...
Its listening the way it used to be.

Disappointing.......2006-08-19
Enough with the damn compilations!.......2005-06-11
All the more frustrating is that Vangelis has a ton of unreleased music that many fans like myself have been after for years. Sorry the bootlegs on Ebay just don't cut it.
Where's an official release of "Cavafy", "The Bounty", "Francesco", and "Bitter Moon". Where is all the still unreleased music from "1492", "Blade Runner", "Antarctica" and "Chariots of fire", yes he released soundtracks for these films but they were sadly lacking.
Unfortunately we will probably have to wait for Vangelis to demise before we ever get these tracks, if even then.
worth buying, has seven good Vangelis songs.......2005-05-25
Excellent Overview of Vangelis' Best Known Songs.......2004-06-10
"Oddisey: The Definitive Collection" (18 tracks, 78 min.) in my opinion truly does compile all of Vangelis' best know tracks and greatest hits. Most of the tracks on here will sound immediately familiar, many because they are movie themes (Chariots of Fire being the most famous of course, but also The Missing, Blade Runner, thankfully containing both the beginning and end titles, Mutiny on the Bounty, and others), and other that became well known in commercials (Hymne, L'Enfant, among others). There can be no denying the creativity and talents of Vangelis. There are 2 bonus tracks, "I'll Find My Way Home" and "State of Independence", the 2 best known tracks of Jon & Vangelis, a nice touch to the album.
I share my frustration with other reviewers here that there is tons of great Vangelis music out there that remains unreleased. To be sure, Vangelis deserves a box-treatment of rare and unreleased tracks. But if you are looking for a single-disk overview of his best known songs, look no further: "Oddisey" is it. Released in Fall, 2003, it is a nice way to commemorate Vangelis turning 60 (say it ain't so!).

Recorded live at the Prince Music Theater in Philadelphia, this double CD is one heck of an extensive tribute to Stephen Sondheim. Backed only by Paul Ford on piano, Mandy Patinkin gets through nearly three dozen songs penned by the Broadway master. Some are obvious (excerpts from Sunday in the Park with George, in which the singer created the title role), others less so ("If You Can Find Me I'm Here" from Evening Primrose). Patinkin is often mocked for his shivering falsetto, but here, it's actually when his voice explores a lower register that it falters. What's more interesting is when he tackles songs usually sung by women, such as Follies' "Broadway Baby" and Company's "Another Hundred People" and "You Could Drive a Person Crazy"--the latter hammed up so much that you can hear the chewing of the scenery. A distinctively mannered interpreter, Patinkin remains an acquired taste, but fans of his will be in heaven with this set. --Elisabeth VincentelliCustomer Reviews:
Patinkin Live.......2007-07-19
Sondheim recital.......2007-01-22
Also a very dissapointed fan.......2003-08-22
Adequate performance; poor entertainment.......2003-05-04
a very disappointed fan.......2003-02-05
But (much of) this recording is disappointing, mainly because Mr. Patinkin's voice in the lower range sounds muddled and forced, as though he's lost ability to control it (however, the more falsetto sounds are as clear and sharp as ever).
And I don't care for the format of this performance. Live recordings should have live audience reactions: one (often unrelated) song after another without applause had me wondering when--if ever--was the audience was going to be allowed to react.
Also, while I've never had the privilege of attending a Patinkin concert, I imagined that--above all-- he would be passionate. Perhaps he was. But what (mostly) comes across on the CD is a somber--almost technical--performance.
I hope he's healthy, that mixed quality of singing on this recording was just a fluke, and that his next CD will be a Five-star as all his previous ones have been

Find Your Own Way Home (2007).......2007-06-04
For Hi Infidelity Live Again, it contains the whole album Hi Infidelity recorded live in the XM studios. While of course it isn't as great as the original album, but it is very well performed and a lot of fun to listen too.
The final disc is a dvd of Reo performing some live songs and answering a few questions in between. You got to hear the acoustic version of Ridin' the Storm.
Overall, a great package. I would recommend this to all Reo Speedwagon fans.
REO Speedwagon returns with gusto!.......2007-04-28
Then, after their album, "Life, As We Know It," REO hit a period of changes in lineup with the departure of founding members, drummer Alan Gratzer, and lead guitarist Gary Richrath. Along with these shakeups, REO suddenly departed the Billboard album charts.
The new lineup featured drummer Bryan Hitt and guitarist Dave Amato and released two original albums, "The Earth, a Small Man, His Dog, and a Chicken," plus "Building the Bridge." The second album featured a cut used in a Presidential election.
But neither album achieved anything remotely close to the success of their previous releases, much less the earth shattering success of "High Infidelity." This latest original album, "Find Your Own Way Home," changes all of that.
This album has already charted and that is despite a limited initial release through Wal-Mart stores. Now the album has been generally released. More important, the songs in this album are truly excellent and varied.
The initial two releases are "Smilin' In the End" to the classic rock stations and "Find Your Own Way Home" to the adult contemporary stations. "Smilin' in The End" is an old-fashioned rock and roll romp, a defiant ode of success against the odds. "Find Your Own Way Home" is a classic REO power ballad, but with a soulful theme of unfulfilled love with a pointed rejoinder that the lover must find her own lost way.
One hopes this is not the end of the releases to radio stations because as good as these two songs are, they are not the finest on the album.
The album has many songs that echo the REO classics of the past, but also expands the band's genre into new territory. "Born to Love You," is a wonderful blues song with an electric punch. Bassist Bruce Hall again lends his baritone voice as lead singer, and the song is pure toe-tapping energy. But there is more where that came from.
"Everything You Feel" is perhaps the single best song on the entire album, a masterful blend of high energy instrumentals with ballad style lyrics that form a brilliant example of progressive rock. The song starts slow, with a barely audible extended musical introduction, a pale whisper that builds into a crescendo of hard hitting guitar and organ compositions. Within this wall-splitting instrumental is a ballad that explores the measure of the man as the sum of his relationships, broken and successful.
But there are other flavors. "Dangerous Combination" is a fabulously original song about the effects of alcohol on the male brain. The lyrics are splendid:
"I've been thinkin' too much.
I've been drinkin' to much.
Oh and thinkin' and drinkin' for me is a dangerous combination.
If we're gonna turn back, better turn back now.
I'd say no, but I don't know how.
Girl I really should be leaving.
But that's another conversation."
As you may surmise, the album has a central them, very much an adult version of the one so well done in "High Infidelity," hard luck in love and the pain of recognizing it! Except, unlike the techno rock of "Hi Infidelity," this album reflects a far higher degree of maturity, and without question a wide range of musical expressions.
If you want to listen to progressive rock, power ballads, blues, power anthems, folk, and country, you can load up a six-disk CD player cassette. Or, you can simply purchase this one album and find at least one quality example of each!
It's been 19 years since REO released an album of this quality. They've been highly successful on the concert tours but had a war chest of quality songs. Finally, the best of those new songs have made it on a new album. For REO fans, this is a release to celebrate. But for fans who have never heard REO songs, "Find Your Own Way Home" is a marvelous starting point.

Amazon.com's Best of 2001
After unearthing Stephen Sondheim's youthful effort, Saturday Night, a couple of years ago, producers desperate to bank on the name of one of Broadway's last living titans continue chasing after obscure offerings. The Frogs was a 1974 adaptation of a play by Aristophanes and was staged by the Yale Repertory Theater for a week. This recording, the first complete one, boasts the presence of Nathan Lane, Davis Gaines, and Brian Stokes Mitchell. In Broadway star power, that's like having Jim Carrey, Brad Pitt, and Tom Cruise in the same movie. Evening Primrose was a 1966 ABC special, which spawned a couple of songs ("I Remember" and "Take Me to the World") that made it into the cabaret and solo recital repertories. Granted, these two pieces are for Sondheim completists, but they do provide an interesting glimpse into the mind of one of the musical theater's most brilliant auteurs. --Elisabeth VincentelliCustomer Reviews:
Primrose Shines, Frogs Leaps!.......2005-08-27
But it is really the final four tracks on the album (The Evening Primrose) that shines. The Evening Primrose is also an interesting Sondheim show but this one is quite possibly worth the price of the album itself. This recording (the only LEGAL one i know of) of the show is... well... perfect. The music is Sondheim at his best, the singers (Neil Patrick Harris plays the lead) are terrific and it just sounds glorious!
The Frogs might be an interesting and entertaining reason to purchase this album but it will The Evening Primrose that will make you scream with joy!
Can I sell it On Ebay!!!!.......2005-06-01
Very Good Evening Primrose.......2004-04-15
The Real Thing........2004-02-17
Possibly, but on THIS disc we have the first time all four songs were recorded UNDER SONDHEIM'S SUPERVISION, and that makes all the difference in the world. Mandy Patimkin greatly distorts "If You Can Find Me"'s melody; Bernadette Peters's voice is under the accompaniment on "I Remember", and the arrangements on "Dress Casual" are over-elaborate, gooey, and unrestrained. Neither singer effectively plays his character. No, the "Evening Primrose" you want is right here.

The album "Elusive" is a very impressive first effort. Adrina's pristine vocals and intricate piano work yield numerous memorable tracks, including the opening "Fly Fly Fly" and the popular "Round the Bend". Her youthful romanticism is perhaps captured best in "Did You Think", a catchy tune that is embellished with soothing vocals and sparkling keyboards. This album is a must have to anyone's collection.
