Instruments of the Orchestra - Great Reference Material!.......2007-04-04

This set lends itself to greatly enhancing one's knowledge of the orchestra, instruments in it, and their usage. I am a huge music buff, and I still picked up a great deal I previously did not know. I highly recommend this for all who wish to understand the origin of music, as well as the processes that are employed to create music!

Beginner or Expert.......2007-03-12

This CD is excellent for the beginner or expert! To be able to haear the instrumets separately and then together really provides a good education. and/or refresher. The book thaty comes with the CD is alomost worth the price by itself!

Very Informative and Enjoyable.......2006-11-20

Whether you're a music novice or pro, "The instruments of the Orchestra" is a very worthwhile purchase. The 7 CDs, with a total of 8 hours, are expertly narrated by Jeremy Siepmann. He's a great speaker, very much like the late Leonard Bernstein was. Mr. Siepmann takes you on an unforgetable musical journey covering the origins and use of the various orchestral instruments throughout musical history. The balance between his narration and a wealth of musical examples, which range from snippets to entire movements, is superb. The comprehensive enclosed booklet is excellent and faithfully follows the 7 CDs in content. Even with my 40+ years of music training I still learned new things from this wonderful collection. Considering the excellence of the content, and a cost that translates to about $5 per disc, this collection is a great value. Grab it, you won't regret that you did. Five solid stars!

Frank's view.......2006-08-19

This boxed set of CD's with booklet achieved all I had hoped that it would. There are good samples of individual instruments and well done commentary on each. The only drawback was that some of the samples were too brief and could have been longer, hoiwever I guess this fits in with time constraints of the medium. It has given me a lot of clues as to future purchases of CD's for listening to individual instruments. Altogeth a satisfactory purchase and a welcome addition to my collection.

Excellent Intro for Those Not Familiar with the Orchestra.......2003-11-08

I've listened to classical music for years and am interested in composition. I bought this CD set to learn how an orchestra and its instruments work. I thought the CDs would be a nice but boring lecture. They aren't! Not only are they FUN but they are informative as well. I learned a huge amount from each CD and couldn't wait to listen to the next one.

The narrator and writer is a great speaker and holds your attention well. He is definitely knowledgeable. He provides musical examples for each point he makes, so you get to "hear" what he just talked about. I'd say the CDs are about 65% music and 35% narration. You'll learn about the range of instruments, some history, different ways to play them, how they sound, and how they are used in the orchestra. This CD set was a great learning experience and is sold at such a low price!

I recommend this CD for those who want to learn about classical music and those who know about it but are interested in learning more about the inner workings of an orchestra. You'll learn much useful information. For instance, the Rite of Spring (with that eerie start) is written for bassoon! I never knew a bassoon could sound like that but now I do.

The one complaint I have is the last CD. This deals with the orchestra. I wanted more of a tour of how the orchestra has been used through history up to the present. Instead, it was a tour of how different groups of instruments sound. I thought it could have been better. The other 6 CDs are excellent.

Serious Sting fans, do pass this one up.......2006-12-23

Albums like this are the reason people go searching for B sides. Truly a crime these were not all added to Mercury Falling, but once you own, they are your own secret treasure.

Do not be surprised if you find yourself memorizing Lullaby and Pirates Bride to lullaby to a loved one. They are simply beautiful.
While not as smooth and sweeping, 25 to Midnight infectiously finishes off the set. One of my favorite overall purchases, much less a favorite Sting album.

If you enjoy this, I'd also highly recommend Brand New Day [SINGLE] (Part 1 with Windmills and End of the Game) by Sting as well and vice versa.

One Of Stings Best.......2006-08-21

I love B sides from an album. They always give you insight into the artists thoughts. Since we don't always get the full line up in the U.S. I'm thrilled to find so called singles to go with albums that I have purchased. The Pirates Bride is one of the most beautiful soulful songs Sting has ever written, and you have got to feel so moved by these thoughts in this song. Lulluby To An Anxious Child, a collaboration with Dominic Miller, is almost an apology to a child for the world being not quite right and is also truly beautiful. Twenty Five To Midnight rocks and almost sounds autobiographical if you have ever read Stings book Broken Music. You Still Touch Me definetly
not a B side and a mild hit on Mercury Falling. It is also a wonderful song with fantastic lyrics and Romantic as ever.You won't be sorry with this 4 song single it's worth every bit as much as the rest of the album.

You Still Touch Me is GREAT!.......2006-07-02

The best part about buying this disc featuring "You Still Touch Me" is getting the additional tracks with it.

"Twenty-Five to Midnight" is awesome! It's Sting at his best..wonderfully upbeat. Great horns! Great guitar! Great lyrics! I don't know where else you can find this track.

"Lullaby To An Anxious Child" is beautiful. I believe co-written by Dominic Miller.

"The Pirate's Bride" is also a beautiful tune.

Just ok..........2006-06-30

The Pirates Bride is a beautiful tune, the only track I listen to on this disc. I'm a big time Sting fan and I'm just calling it as I hear it.

A Priceless Gem Lost In Obscurity.......2006-02-08

The problem I've had with Sting over the years is that the music which is chosen for radio airplay is oftenly inadequate representations of his best work. What we have in this instance makes even less sense. Here we have a few of the finest songs Sting has ever written appearing as "B-side" tunes on a very hard-to-find CD single, and it's the only way you'll ever hear these songs because they don't even appear on any of his regular albums! I am obviously referring to the songs "Lullaby To An Anxious Child" and "The Pirate's Bride".

Thank you for the music, Sting, but why do you sometimes throw your best music away???

With a spirit of innocence and excitement, no audible breaks of register, and perfect diction, Dawn Upshaw graces us with a satisfying crossover recording in which each song is a fully realized musical monologue. The eclectic and infrequently performed repertoire, from Bernstein, Blitzstein, Sondheim, and Weill, compliments her charm and interpretive acuity. There's her humorous "Saga of Jenny," her adorable "That's Him," her poignant "Like It Was," and her freshly vibrant "I Feel Pretty." Conductor Eric Stern is divine in his arrangements and accompaniment. This is one of the best musical theater albums available. --Barbara Eisner Bayer

Crossover at Its Best.......2006-11-15

"I Wish It So" is the CD that first introduced the exceptional "crossover" talents of soprano Dawn Upshaw. The album, which comprises (mostly) little-heard songs by Kurt Weill, Marc Blitzstein, Leonard Bernstein, and Stephen Sondheim, opens with the title number, a lyrical gem from Blitzstein's JUNO, and continues with Sondheim's vibrant "There Won't Be Trumpets," in which Upshaw, rather than belting, lets her voice ring. She then slam-dunks Sondheim's "What More Do I Need," a truly raucous number. Other highlights include the two songs from Weill's LADY IN THE DARK: the haunting ballad "My Ship" and the witty "The Saga of Jenny," presented here in a superb jazz arrangement. The sound of Upshaw's lower middle voice in this number is thrilling. Her combining of Blizstein's "Never Get Lost" and Sondheim's soaring, life-affirming "Take Me to the World" is perfect, as is her musical yet emotional rendition of "Like It Was" from Sondheim's MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG. The album climaxes with the mock-coloratura aria "Glitter and Be Gay" from Bernstein's CANDIDE, in which Upshaw scales the heights with consistently pure and beautiful tone. In a day when many great opera singers attempt, unsuccessfully, to sing "popular" song, "I Wish It So" is an example of crossover at its very best. It is a CD that no one who loves both opera and musicals should miss.

If Dawn Upshaw had made only one album..........2006-08-24

I have a weak spot for crossover albums by opera stars, which can often be train wrecks or embarrissing self-parodies. There's not a cringe-worthy note in this one, however. Dawn Upshaw has never been as vibrant on disc, and her style in pop music (albeit serious pop music) surpasses expectations. She is a master at touching vulnerability and stars-in-her-eyes vulnerability. There's no current Broadway star who can match her in any of these songs form Sondheim, Weill, and Bernstein, certainly not for sheer beauty of voice and charm. Upshaw went on to make an excellent album of Rodgers and Hart songs, but nothing else quite matches this first effort.

Great songs by a better than average singer. Buy It........2006-04-24

'I Wish It So' sung by popular / classical switch hitter, Dawn Upshaw is a very, very good interpretation of classical American musical theatre pieces by four masters of the genre, Leonard Bernstein (music), Marc Blitzstein (lyrics), Stephen Sondheim (lyrics) and Kurt Weill (music). As I am most familiar with female interpretations of Kurt Weill's songs, especially by the likes of his widow, Lotte Lenya and Weill interpreter extraordinare, Ute Lemper, I have to say that while Upshaw does them justice, she does ont outshine the very best Weill interpretations. Primarily, I believe she suffers from never actually performing the works on stage, as Lenya has.

And, since Ute Lemper did an album with a similar collection of songs (Illusions) from Sondheim and others, I thing Lemper still has the edge on interpreting other composers as well.

On the positive side, I find Upshaw's interpretation as good or better than almost everyone else who makes a career out of these songs, such as, dare I say it, Barbra Streisand. This is a good thing, because I believe Upshaw is not up to the very best mezzos who share her classical works. She can't hold a candle, for example, to Renee Fleming or Anne Sofie von Otter, although her interpretations of Weill are as good as von Otter, just not as good as Lenya and Lemper.

A very, very nice album if you like female vocalists.

A must album for all musical theatre lovers........2005-04-21

Dawn Upshaw once again disproves the adage that opera singers can't sing showtunes properly. Her diction, her ability to act out the lyrics and her crystal clear angel-like voice are just heavenly. Miss Upshaw could teach quite a few Broadway and Cabaret singers a thing or two about interpretation and she would have her hands full teaching opera singers like Te Kanawa or Fleming how to put over a showtune properly. Simply divine!

Timeless recording.......2004-07-20

This is an endlessly rewarding album by an operatic soprano who demonstrates an expressiveness and range rare in crossover albums of this sort. Upshaw modifies her classical technique without compromising it, narrating with a conversational tone and youthful ebullience well-suited to musical theater. She continues her tradition of championing obscure American art songs with three gorgeous Blitzstein pieces, and wisely avoids the standard, overdone Sondheim showpieces in favor of several gorgeous lesser-known songs. "I Feel Pretty" is given a refreshing makeover, while "Glitter and Be Gay" demonstrates both her impressive vocal control and comedic prowess. Despite the odd choice of "There Won't Be Trumpets", which demands a belter to properly execute the climax, this album is a well-conceived and cohesive collection that becomes more enjoyable on each subsequent listen.

Amazon.com's Best of 2001

The movie version of The Rocky Horror Show has turned into such an enduring cult success that it has pretty much obliterated the fact that it all started with a stage show. And now Richard O'Brien's musical is back on stage, where some say it truly belongs (it was nominated for the category Best Revival of a Musical in the 2001 Tony Awards). With a great cast that includes Dick Cavett, Alice Ripley (Janet), Tom Hewitt (Frank 'N' Furter), and Daphne Rubin-Vega (Magenta), the revival fires on all cylinders. Note that while Joan Jett was in the cast as Columbia, she's not on the CD (Kristen Lee Kelly is). But Lea DeLaria, last seen stealing the show in On the Town, more than compensates by playing both Eddie (Meat Loaf in the movie!) and Dr. Scott--and doing great by both. As a bonus, the song "Once in a While" is back after being cut from the movie. Bursting with energy, this recording brings the rock back in Rocky. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Customer Reviews:

One of my favorite cast recordings.......2007-01-17

This was the first Rocky Horror album I've ever listened to besides the movie soundtrack. Despite the lack of Joan Jett as Columbia and the 2nd Usherette, this album is sweet. Daphne-Rubin Vega is perfect as Magenta. And Tom Hewlett 's interpretation as Frank N. Furter is just in sync with the character. But he's still no Tim Curry. And the rest of the cast is sublime. And with Dick Cavett as the Criminologist and famed lesbian comedienne Lea DeLaria as both Eddie and Dr. Scott is just excellent.

Thougt You Were The Candyman Didn't ya freggy!.......2006-06-22

I thought that this was gonna be just another edition of the Rocky Horror Show.But boy was I wrong.I loved it they really modernized and gave it more of a Rock flavor than in the original play which was more pop.I just loved how they had the Overture and Space shipa partof the cd.They really recreated great for broadway.When i heard that broadway was doing Then Rocky Horror Show I didn't know what to think.Because Rocky Horror had been an off-broadway show for many years.The thought of it being onBroadway was just amazing Because people back in the 70's and 80's always thought that The Rocky Horror Show was much too trashy to be put on Broadway.Because you always think about broadway plays as being classy and eligent.They didn't want a play about Sex and Horror and Gay Transvestites.But this was just a head turner.I loved it.It's definitely 5 stars.The cd quality was great.It was so professionally done and it was great.I think any RHS Fan will love it.This was no candyman!

The Rockiest Recording to Date.......2006-06-07

This 2000 Broadway revival of the cult classic THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW boasts a completely re-vamped orchestration of Richard O'Brien's score. This is certainly the most rock-fused version of these songs to date, and right from the "Overture" the listener can assume this. Many may not be able to accept this harder, bolder score and I myself am a bit skeptical, considering the more piano-driven and sci-fi sounding orchestrations of the film soundtrack or Roxy cast recording. However, it is so interesting to hear these songs done like this that I cannot help but enjoy it. The performances are half-and-half. Daphne Rubin-Vega belts out the opening number in that great gravelly voice she has, and Raul Esparzza sends chills down my spine every time I hear his two great solo moments ("The darkness must flow down the river...." and "Frank 'N' Furter, it's all over..."). Sebastian LaCause is amazing as Rocky, as thankless a part that is. Eddie and Dr. Scott being portrayed by a woman (Lea DeLaria) is one of the strangest casting decisions ever and is too distracting to be able to even listen to her (his? I don't know!!!) songs: "Hot Patootie" and "Eddie's Teddy." Tom Hewitt does his best as Frank 'N' Furter, but the character was so well defined by Tim Curry in the film (one of the most underrated performances ever) that one can't help but ignore him. I'd say that this recording is something every ROCKY HORROR fan should listen to; it just all depends on whether you like the new or original orchestrations.

Good recording, bad show........2006-03-10

Rocky Horror is an American institution. It's indelible, unforgettable, and entirely unique. But without the audience participation, the show is revealed - it's simply not very good. It's a passable (if dated) parody of '50s B-movies with a transvestite main character and some halfway decent songs. The show lives with and dies without an audience. The lyrics, the characters - nothing is half as fun without the audience throwing and shouting and bantering right along.

That said, this is a VERY good recording of what's there. Tom Hewitt does as good a job as anyone trying to fill Tim Curry's sequined heels, and brings some nice twists to the table instead of going the Curry-imitation route. Raul Esparza as Riff-Raff is electric - his rendition of "Time Warp" is unlike anything else you're likely to hear on a cast recording. He blasts it right into outer space, screaming like the world's going to end. Daphne Rubin-Vega is plenty of fun as Columbia, giving a nicely sinuous and raw-edged sexiness to the role. The orchestra gives their all to the new arrangements, and they sound crystal clear.

It's definitely the best recording of the show available, even sans Tim Curry.

Oh Daphne!.......2005-12-29

Most of the reviews have it right here - this production wasn't really Rocky at it's best. That being said, I must say that Daphne Ruben-Vega as magenta is probably one of the most interesting, refreshing, and note worthy things about this recording. Very cool in that regard.

Loved this album as a teen in the early 70's. I was thrilled to have a chance to revisit on cd. It is classic Ross.

Diana's Ballad Tour De Force.......2006-11-18

Diana Ross won acclaim for her role as Billie Holiday in Lady Sings The Blues, but she and Motown knew a
return to her signature sound should be fast in coming, so shortly after the Lady.... soundtrack was winding down on the charts, Touch Me In The Morning was released.

The tile track is the epitome of a Diana Ross ballad, and it landed her another Pop/R & B crossover hit.
With the commitment of her mentor, Berry Gordy, Diana gained more confidence as a vocalist, and this release contains some of her finest work from a cover of the Carpenter's, I Won't Last A Day Without You, to a moving take on the John Lennon masterpiece Imagine.

Her Jazz/Blues stylings from LSTB were not lost either, and the medley of Brown Baby and Save The Children
lent her more vocal credability.

Diana displayed a powerful level of emotion on this album and All Of My Life is another prime example.

Why a rating of 4 stars, as opposed to 5?. Simply put, that although the dramatic ballad is Diana's forte,
a uptempo track, or two, delivered with the same passion as the rest of this release would have taken it to the next level.

The Soul Diva Returns After Lady Sings The Blues With An International Top 10 Album.......2006-08-31

Where the Lady Sings The Blues Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (1972) totally shrugged off any Supremes-type number, showcasing Diana Ross's versatile talents, the Touch Me In The Morning (1973) project steered even further away, completely abandoning her previous commercial R&B/Soul/Pop sound. The mood is mellow and soulful throughout, emerging as one of her all-time great albums of the 1970's.

The magnificent title track, Touch Me In The Morning is an absolute cracking masterpiece and is one of Diana's most memroable and timeless classics. A young composer, Michael Masser was drafted in by Motown. His first assignment was to come up with a no.1 hit for Motown's leading lady - Diana Ross. Michael Masser immediately came up with Touch Me In The Morning with Diana Ross in mind. Touch Me In The Morning would also be aided by the compositional and lyrical finesse of Ron Miller. Basically Berry Gordy wanted a No.1 hit waiting in the wings for his leading star just in the event of a needed re-bound if the Lady Sings The Blues movie bombed. Of course we all know Lady Sings The Blues was indeed an enduring success and earned her a much deserved oscar nomination for her powerful and riviting portrayal as the tortured Jazz singer Billie Holiday. Hot on its trail came Touch Me in The Morning. After an extremely sluggish start where it literally hovered for weeks on end down the lower reaches of the Hot 100 it slowly but surely climbed up the charts and eventually zoomed into pole position, remaining there for weeks on end. The formula is vastly similar to Ain't No Mountain High Enough where the rhythm steadily builds to its exalting chrous which Diana tackles with utter style and finesse sounding gutsy and soulful. One of Diana Ross's best classics!
Incidentally Michael Masser described the recording sessions for the Touch Me In The Morning single an emotionally draining experience. He claimed that Diana was very emotional during the sessions, crying a lot when she couldn't hit the notes required for the song and Diana even believed the song was beyond her vocal abilities. After countless takes, Diana finally got that desired vocal performance mastered to perfection.

Another timeless ballad was the remarkably powerful, All Of My Life where Dianas exubearant delivery ignites this breathtakingly beautiful ballad to startling effect. All Of My Life was lifted as a single in the U.K and became a Top 10 hit.

The mood turns somewhat chilly on the atmospheric, We Need You where Diana delivers a fantastic and stirring vocal performance. We Need you was written by Deke Richards whose most famous work for Diana Ross was the U.K chart-topping, I'm Still Waiting in 1971.

Also of great musical merit was the pleasant, mid-tempo Leave A Little Room where Diana glides through the verses and is joined by a gospel choir on the chrous which merley adds to its dramatic effect.

Diana surprisingly makes her version of The Carpenters, I Won't Last A Day Without You her own but it's the latter half of the album that displays a lot of true artistic flair. Perharps holding onto Lady Sings The Blues in some way, Diana delivers two Jazz/Blues numbers that are both stunningly atmospheric. Her performance on Little Girl Blue is dreamy and rich whilst the mood deepens and steadily more sombre on the haunting, My Baby (My Own). Her striking, lower throat register performance virtually turns into a subdued howl at the climax of this track.

Diana then delivers a magnificent and sophisticated reading of the John Lennon classic Imagine which she sings with such passion in her voice.

The Touch Me In The Morning (1973)album's climax is a startling and compelling medley (a)Brown Baby (b)Save The Children. More than anything, this medley showcased her versatile vocal style and her overall diversity as a recording artist. The Medley is both touching and hauntingly atmospheric rounding the project off beautifully.

The Touch Me In The Morning (1973) set was a fantastic affair all round and was one of her most artistic and diverse efforts off the 1970's. The bonus was it proved to be another yet massive commercial success where it speedily jumped into the U.K and U.S Top 10 Album charts becoming one of her biggest sellers in that era.

From a Supremes vocalist to a Supreme vocalist ! .......2005-10-03

The first time I heard "Touch Me in The Morning", it was evident from the opening bars of the song until the last note that her performance, was stunning and destined to be her second solo #1 single.(And the first of her recordings with Michael Masser, who co-wrote among other songs they recorded together,"Theme from Mahogany" and "It's My Turn.")The rest of the album lives up to that standard. Compare her interpretation of "Little Girl Blue," to the version recorded on "The Supremes Sing Rodgers-The Complete Sessions," to experience her growth as a vocalist.

Diana's Early 70s Masterpiece.......2005-04-12

Every artist has a defining moment in their career. For Diana Ross, there have been several moments of brilliance and 1973's "Touch Me in the Morning" was one of them.

Historically, the timing for the release of the album was of significant importance. Diana had stunned the world with her Oscar nominated and Golden Globe Award winning performance in "Lady Sings the Blues". It was time to return to the studios and the result was a collection of beautiful, timeless classics that have stood the test of time.

The album opens with that ever popular Ross ballad, "Touch Me in the Morning" which has to rank as one of the finest pop/R&B singles of the modern pop era. Diana demonstrated previously undiscovered nuances in her delivery, and displayed a talent for ballads that was fresh and exciting. Furthermore, Diana's voice was incredibly smooth, supple and dreamy. It all makes for pleasant listening.

There are no dance cuts here, just classy ballads. My personal favourites are "Leave A Little Room", "Little Girl Blue", and "My Baby, My Own". The "Brown Baby/Save the Children" medley is awesome. "Save the Children" is quite an intense experience, with Diana singing with passion and conviction. Both tracks were produced by Ms Ross.

This classy album should be part of the collection of any Ross fan. This was Diana at her best.

Kurt Weill: Re-discovery..........2006-11-10

I am so impressed and pleased to have found this recording on Amazon.com. I am always amazed when I find these seemingly obscure recordings, and thrilled to know they exist. What a wonderful history of our musical world---and what a chance to hear interesting, challenging, and unusual performances from so many well-known people. The songs live on--the composer is 'new' again, and this recording becomes part of history re-discovered. Thank you Amazon.com for your continued professionalism and for having these recordings available.

Incredible Live Album.......2002-02-10

This incredible concert (which i attended) benefitting The Actors' Fund of America, contains some absolute MUST performances for any Broadway collector.

For me, the highlights are HUGH PANARO ("It Never Was You"), NANCY DUSSAULT ("It's Him") and TIM CURRY singing "Surabaya Johnny" in German!

Loretta Divine, Brock Peters, they're all great!

A Splendid Souvenir to Remember a Spectacular Performance!.......2003-10-30

Having been fortunate to have seen the English National Opera's production in 1988 of "Orpheus" with Wilson and Pountney's outrageously naughty English text, this highlight CD serves as an audio souvenir. Too bad the ENO didn't have the foresight to film the production-would have made a great DVD. The CD booklet does have a few photos of the sets designed by Gerald Scarfe (who also designed Pink Floyd's "The Wall" album artwork) so you get a taste, combined with the CD selections, of what the production was like.

god moves in a peculiar way.........i am god.............2002-01-17

Offenbach is great anyhow, but this recording is riotous. The translation into English is first-rate, really funny stuff, and the singing is pretty good, too. Very worthwhile.

Orpheus in the Underworld.......2000-03-17

The rewritten lyrics, in English, are some of the wittiest and wicked in operetta. Wilson and Pountney have recaptured the spirit of naughtiness, not a small accomplishment in our licentious times. Though delighted to have the highlights, I wished a CD set or video of the full production were available.

Excerpts.......1999-12-23

This is a collection of excerpts. It is in English and is quite good. The performance of the entire operetta has been discontinued and it is a pity.

Highlights or total Opera?.......1999-11-01

I would like to know if this is highlights from the opera or the total opera.

Lovely, Underrated!.......2005-10-13

Crystal Bernard has an angels' voice.

I love this CD so much, I wish I could express how it makes me feel.

I listen to it to pick me up when I'm having a bad day.

If you like pop music, why not try her angelic voice today.

A fine singer-songwriter.......2005-07-18

Crystal is more famous as an actress but this album demonstrates her considerable musical talents. Crystal wrote two of the songs alone and co-wrote five of the others with her record producer, David Rhyne. The music may be described as easy-listening pop-country music.

The opening track, Hey, is about a former lover who decides he wants to return, but Crystal isn't going to allow that. Next comes the title track, also about a former lover (perhaps the same one) who Crystal wants to stay away but he still has an effect on hrr, so it's not as simple as she would like. After this comes a song (We don't live there anymore) that reminisces about the good times that are long gone.

Crystal cheers up on the next track (To dream without you), a happy duet with country singer Billy Dean. The next song (Here's looking at you) seems at first to be a happy song, but it later becomes clear that the man that Crystal remembers so well is no longer interested in her. Next comes a song (Love never ends) about a woman whose partner died six years ago but she still remains faithful. Then comes a sad song (Gardenia) about somebody who had a brief moment of fame that was never recaptured.

Another sad song (Music biy) is about a woman who declines the offer of marriage because she tried before with somebody else but failed and decided to remain independent. Next is a song (Something to go on) about the start of a relationship, where Crystal wants to know if the man is serious or not. The album closes with a duet (If you need a touch) in which Crystal and her father recommend placing faith in God.

Crystal never established herself as a major singing star but she didn't need to and maybe didn't want to. This was her second and (as far as I know) last album, but it is definitely worth a listen.

How do we get her to record more of such great music?.......2004-04-04

I own both albums and I've listened to them with great pleasure many, many times. This album is the better of the two, but both are very good. Much better than many other contemporary debut albums. This one was out of stock at Amazon, but I found it through another outlet. She is an unexpected and brilliant talent. So how do we get her to record more? I'd buy more in a heartbeat.

Don't touch me there.......2002-09-05

How can I begin to say how much I have enjoyed this cd. Her voice is smooth, strong, and chilling. I would just like to know why record companys haven't been fighting to get her to record more. I truly beleive that she could be as good as Celine, if only given a chance to get her hands on some of the songs given to Celine.

Sensational.......2001-04-16

What a wonderful CD! I've enjoyed her talent on television but was amazed at her voice. Her music is strong and emotionally felt. Truly a masterpiece.

Take me someplace I've never been to..........2006-08-12

Never has a single album moved me the way this one did. Perhaps I am a tad late to have realized it, but the Problem With Me is eternal. Nothing can or ever will match the pure emotions that it captures. I remember the first time I ever listened to this cd. I found it at a local used record store for two dollars and didn't think much of it. Perhaps it was the marbles that compelled me. I went home that night and listened to a bunch of other insignificant cds until coming upon this one. It was late, 12:00 pm, and I was tired, but determined to finish what I had started. So I popped in the cd and layed in bed, in the dark, not knowing what to expect. After listening to the first song I thought the music was kind of spacy and atmospheric to listen to the whole thing, yet something kept me from skipping songs. As the songs passed by I knew that my ears had met something never heard before, but not then did I realize what I had come across. It took until the end of Autopilot to realize what made me feel warm and fuzzy inside: Seam- the Problem With Me. What makes this album so special is how Sooyoung's math riffs build. The only other bands I could compare this phenominon to is Bedhead and Slint(patience rewards the ear). Every song has a build up to a point were the "flood walls break" and everything comes together beneath the chilling distorted guitar of Sooyoung Park. Rafael, Road To Madrid, and Sweet Pea have a longer building up and a breathetaking finish indescribable by my mere words. My personal favorite track is the opener Rafael that any shy person in love can relate to. I sometimes wonder why Seam is so shrouded and unheard of by the world, yet that is what makes discovering this masterpiece so special. It is a personal journey.

Moving.......2006-02-07

There are several moments in this album that still give me chills. A little emo, a little shoegazer, a little slo-core. All emotion and very powerful. My favorite indie rock record of the 90's. No, my favorite indie album ever.

One of the top 5 albums of all time.......2001-10-30

This album defines beauty. An integral part of the slowcore/minimalist movement of the 90s. "Bunch" by itself pays for the cost of the album. Every plucked guitar note has a purpose and every drum fill has a direction. The musical tapestry that Sooyoung Park and co. create is absolutely breathtaking. There's absolutely no filler track in the entire album! I just wish they'd play Kenya someday...

Quick Comment on a Comment.......2001-10-29

"Alternative" was only a fresh term in 1993 to the people who had to wait to be told that it was cool. Like the kid who tried to beat me up for listening to a band he was wearing a concert shirt for two years later. Seam is good, but if you think they were "pioneers", I would point you to any number of bands who could take issue with that...The Jesus & Mary Chain, Sonic Youth, Pavement, The Pixies, My Bloody Valentine...just to name a scattered few.

Please be sure to vote. This review is not helpful to you or me and certainly not helpful to musical sheep.

This is where it all began.......2001-05-18

Emo..whatever. This genre did not exist when this album was made. In fact "Alternative" was still a relatively fresh term. Thus, Seam is a true pioneer.
