About the Artist
Len Vogler’s distinguished career in the music industry began more than three decades ago, when he was signed on as a staff writer at the Musique Group, Inc. in New York. Since then, this formally trained composer has composed extensively for film, stage, multimedia, and commercial productions. As a producer/engineer, Len has worked in world class studios with some of the industries brightest talent. As a publicist he has acquired an expansive catalogue of compositions which are performed in the US and in Europe. Len has authored twenty-two educational music books, published by Music Sales Corporation, and sold world wide and in two languages. Len’s performing career includes numerous rock bands and, of course, his solo act, which is well known in coffee houses throughout New York and Pennsylvania. Len’s solo release Breakin’ the Sound will soon be followed up by his new CD Broken Face.

Product Description
The heavily anticipated follow up to Len Vogler's Breakin' The Sound will be released in June 2001. Entitled Broken Face, this new CD will feature many of the favorites enjoyed by regional coffee house patrons over the past few years. Len's trademark production style once again fills his work with rich textures and lush layering of voices and acoustic/electric guitars. And, as always, this accomplished lyricist has dared to confront the most complex issues of our day.

5 out of 5 stars A musical treasure-box.......2006-09-10

Both the music and this actual product are masterpieces. John Dowland's collected works here - covering 12 compact discs - exhibit the depth and power of this composer, a composer who many now regard as suffering from clinical depression. I doubt that the issue of the diagnosis of Dowland's depression can ever be settled, however, it is certainly obvious from his music, so completely on display here, that he was a man with very dark depths and corners in his mind. Dowland's various manifestations and "takes" on his own tune, "Flow my tears"/"Lachrimae" are here. This tune has haunted me ever since I first heard it when I was a child. It seems to sum up Dowland's feelings - at least Dowland seems to have thought so.

The First, Second, Third and Fourth Bookes of Songes, A Musicall Banquet, the keyboard transcriptions, all the lute music, consort music are here and virtually everything else written or supposedly written by John Dowland. Anthony Rooley and The Consort of Musicke perform this music with style and feeling throughout. This 12 CD set is something of a monument to the ensemble - I only wish they'd finished their collection of Monteverdi madrigals, which was equally good (La Venexiana are currently doing a magnificent job of recording all Monteverdi's books of madrigals for the GLOSSA label).

This is an expensive set, however, you will probably never need to buy another John Dowland CD again after buying and listening to this collection.

I bought this CD set on a mild Summer evening of 1998 and listened to it while sitting in my sun room - which a glorious orange sunset in progress, and a glass of wine. It brought back so many memories.

5 out of 5 stars a beautiful journey into melancholy.......2001-06-15

I'm amazed at how many people tend to associate John Dowland's music with a tragic sense of drama. While no doubt this is art highly based on sadness, the "tragic" sense of it is more a legacy from the Romantic period. During the Renaissance, however, sadness was undestood as a very aesthetic way of approaching life. That is also the reason why Shakespeare's tragedies appear more sophisticated than his comedies.

Dowland, a contemporary of Shakespeare, discovered that meditating on a sad theme is, at the same time, a way of discovering a special beauty that we tend to avoid (maybe because of the "tragic" heritage of the Romantics). So, in the end, meditating on sadness is an uplifting experience! This box set is a journey into melancholy that includes songs, chamber music, pieces for lute, some rare sacred music and -as a highlight- Dowland's beautiful collection of seven pieces for viola which he called "Lachrimae" (Tears).

4 out of 5 stars Another timeless classic!.......2004-12-11

Well the boy Frank has done it again. Superb collection of political rants. The only reason it got a 4 from me was that its so bloody hard to get in the UK. That said it was worth the wait even if 20 years is a little long. BUY BUY BUY

5 out of 5 stars Frank Discussion is back, and still offensive........2004-08-23

If you're anything like me, you believe that a true punk record hasn't been released since the mid 80s. Let's face it, NOFX, Rancid, Blink 182, Sum 41, Good Charlotte, etc ALL SUCK! They all sound the same, and none of them have the vitriol and animosity that makes a punk band punk.
Thank God (or should I say Satan?) that Frank Discussion has decided to come out of retirement.
If you don't know about Frank, here's a brief bio. Frank is known for shooting an assault rifle loaded with blanks at the crowd, playing concerts with dead animals tied around his neck and live crickets glued to his head, and stealing Jello Biafra's wife.
The Feederz new album is just as good as their other classic albums Ever Feel Like Killing your Boss? and Teachers in Space. Frank has not mellowed out one iota with age. His music is just as loud and offensive as ever. Just read the lyrics to Aborted Jesus, a song that's more blasphemous than Jesus Entering From the Rear from the classic compiliation Let Them Eat Jellybeans (a symphonic version of Jesus is on this album). If you're a fan of the other Feederz album, then but this album. Or, as Frank himself would advise, steal it.

        Album Description

        The heavily anticipated follow up to Len Vogler's Breakin' The Sound will be released in June 2001. Entitled Broken Face, this new CD will feature many of the favorites enjoyed by regional coffee house patrons over the past few years. Len's trademark production style once again fills his work with rich textures and lush layering of voices and acoustic/electric guitars. And, as always, this accomplished lyricist has dared to confront the most complex issues of our day.

        4 out of 5 stars Good straight-forward garage music.......1999-04-05

        The beats on this CD are a bit commercial but still good. 1,2,6,7,10,11 are my favorites. The mixing is very good and the CD moves ahead with a consistent progression. There is a little tribal and some real mellow garage sound synths. A couple of the drum loops get a little old, but nothing is perfect. If you like garage music, then this is a definite buy.
