Fall in, funketeers: the first soundtrack to "Class of 3000," the Cartoon Network show executive-produced by Andre 3000 of OutKast, mashes up a melange of beats and styles so beautifully conceived, so inner-city cool, that parents who once grooved to the "Fat Albert" gang will find themselves in thrall (cartoons able to make the grade with school-age kids while putting across a message happen once every 30 years, apparently). Here we have the whole "3000" crew cutting up to Andre, a.k.a. Sunny Bridges', whip-smart concoctions--Li'l D, Kim and Kam, Tamika, Madison, Philly Phil, and Edward trade the spotlight on weird but wickedly fun tracks like "Banana Zoo," "Oh Peanut," and "We Want Your Soul." The messages seep through, but in the end the grooves matter most. Future funkers of America, take note. And tune in immediately. --Tammy La Gorce

Album Description

Good selection of music, poorly performed and badly arranged. Good album for a tag sale. Same comment applies for Volume I.

5 out of 5 stars Great music listein to while you read in bed.......2005-08-21

I have listened to this CD for the last several years before going to sleep at night. I love classical music, and this is great music to help make my soul feel at peace and unwind after a taxing day.

5 out of 5 stars A must buy for the non-snobbish classical music fan........2004-10-22

I bought Vol. 1 of this series and was quite satisfied, but I have to say I'm more than satisfied with this one. If you can just mellow out and enjoy some great pieces, you'll love this CD. #15 on Disc 2 is almost worth the price alone!

5 out of 5 stars A bliss of spirit........2004-09-18

That's disc will open You a wonderful, beautiful world of sounds, their harmony & emotion : you'll feel your heart full of
Joy, Tears, Love.
Good LUCK!

5 out of 5 stars THE BEST!.......2005-03-08

This awesome CD reminds me of my senior year of high school at the American School of the Hague in the Netherlands. Weekends were spent dancing my butt off to these awesome songs, I miss eurotechno, and eurodance! To anyone who loves to dance this is a must, not to mention this CD will have you moving at the gym!

3 out of 5 stars An ok dance CD.......2003-11-30

This is an ok dance CD. Only about 4 good dance tracks worth the listen such as "Who Do U Love" - Deborah Cox, "Be My Lover" - La Bouche feat. Melanie Thornton, "Dreamer" - Livin' Joy, "Beautiful Life" - Ace of Base. The rest is basically pretty boring. Not a great dance CD, but still an ok one. Get this only if you like most of the tracks and artists on this dance compilation album.

There's a lot to be said for continuity and high concept, and Coheed and Cambria have invented an elaborate geeky parallel sci-fi world that spread over four CDs. If you follow the story line, it unfolds like some punk Harry Potter series; equally ambitious and didactic and almost as tightly written as the Moody Blues' "Days of Future Passed." You can also listen to each of the albums without a thought about the story and marvel at the musicianship, the intricately layered guitars, Claudio Sanchez's overwrought and rather pinched vocals and the sheer imagination displayed by these four musicians whose idiosyncratic emo seamlessly flows into prog rock. Epic, surreal, bigger than life, and utterly unlike anything you've heard in decades--even Geddy Lee expounding on free will. -- Jaan Uhelszki

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars If Lord of the Rings was put in a blender with Led Zeplin..........2007-07-17

I wasn't excpepting much from this album before purchasing. I heard the Suffering which I thought was catchy, but I thought there was no way the album could be that good the whole way threw. I was wrong. The music ranges from rythmic harder rock (Welcome Home, and some of the later songs on the album) to really out there fast beats (Once upon your dead body, the Suffering).

Were this album really succeds is in it's great stroyline. The artwork of the album as well as the music relays a sense of epic-ness. You truly will not understand the depth of this Cd until you've heard it first-hand. Buy this CD I could not have been more pleased. In the great words of Apollo I and II, tonight the night on Burning Star IV...

You also may want to check out the Special Edition of the album. The Special Edition comes with a bonus DVD.

5 out of 5 stars a modern experience I'll never forget.......2007-07-09

Luis Mejia (son) - I have to admit that I am one of those guys who love proffesional and complex music but I certainly lost my hope since mid 90's, specially in prog and good rock, and stayed in the era of the 70's, a magical era wich I didn't live. I never met the band 'till I heard the genre "new prog" and Coheed And Cambria was on the main charts, I also recognized the band because my cousin told me about it so I decided to give them a try, and this was the first album I bought seen the good critics and sales. Low in hopes, even when I heard the first track I was surprised they applied that kind of instruments in a classical way. Even more than a year that I've heard this album from the first track to the last one I'm still shocked of how excellent, delicate and professional it is!

I characterize this album more as heavy metal or progressive metal, even a litle bit of alt rock, but it stays a little apart from prog, even when it has certain characteristics of the genre.

The composition of each track is simple superb, delicate, heavy and well thought. Lisetn well, EVERY track is incredible and outstanding, one of the few album you don't have to skip any track; Welcome Home, Ten Speed (Of God Blood And Burial), the four fragments of The Willing Well (specially part 4), The Suffering and Wake Up are extremelly potent tracks that show every characteristic of the album, including soft ballads (until half of the album I never imagined a soft track), rythmical and confortable tracks like The Suffering, heavy, potential tracks with escapist sounds like Welcome Home and Ten Speed, the most likely prog songs like the fragments of The Willnig Well, and so on, each track is different from the other one. The moods of the CD are quite difficult to identify; I quite agree with those reviewers who characterize this album mainly EMO, and though it has many characteristics of EMO (wich I still do not think is a defined or even real genre) it also assimilates alt rock, prog, heavy metal, and so on; within the moods the songs are very different among each other but I can say their moods are agressive, hard, soft, constantly changing, experimental and a certain level of complexity.

Among the artists the guitar of Travis Stever is the best feature in the album, he's such a talented guitarrist, Claudio Sanchez vocals are very melodic and nice to hear but it isn't a voice such talented and trained but stunning as well, Josh Eppard drums are one of those instruments that in every song you listen to them carefully, and Michael Todd bass can be heard, you don't know how it bothers me not to be able to hear a bass in a song, but he makes it sound incredible.

Viewed as a concept album, its a little weird and even a little dumb as a concept album, I trully know that they are trying to make five albums about Teh Amory Wars but it's obvious that Coheed And Cambria would have a lot more credit and much better critics if it weren't for this detail.

In conclussion this band demonstrate among a world full of pitiful new music how still it can be excellent compositions written, if they only take their time, any musician can bring back the flame of music, good music, and the CD is a masterpiece, my sincere recommendations to everyone who appreciates good music.

5 out of 5 stars Alan Dean Foster Meets Rush!.......2007-05-25

As my title states, Coheed & Cambria remind me of a really good sci/fi book set to music. Like a cross between Star Wars and Dream Theatre. I got IKSOSE first and still like that album better, I think simply because it is easier to follow the storyline. This album is much more musically complex though. It took me a long time to get used to the Claudio's voice because I a fan of Doom Metal not pop (not that they are a pop band), so it actually was the storyline that got me so interested. If you like concept albums, this is like trying to solve a really awesome riddle. I love the intro to Good Apollo with the violin!

5 out of 5 stars Great Album.......2007-05-09

Yes C&C is an acquired taste, everything written in other reviews for all the albums pretty much spells out what people like about them. They are just what the current scene lacks, and bring back melodic, powerful, catchy metal in spades.....call it emo(the stupidest label ever coined bar none) or any other dumb term you want.....these guys simply rock.
The reviewer below is more interested in the album art, if thats your concern stick with cereal boxes or bazooka joe wrappers, this is rock n' roll. He also claims "sub par musicianship", which is an amazingly naive statement by someone who must know little about that which they speak. Grab a guitar and write tunes anywhere near this level. Sub par my a**. These guys are at the top of their game.

2 out of 5 stars Disappointing from an outsider's perspective........2007-04-25

I am a huge fan of concept albums. Dream Theater's "Scenes from a Memory" and Queensryche's "Operation Mindcrime" are two of my all-time favorite albums because they bring together theme and form. In other words, the music fits the theme of the album, which is also complemented by the artwork and the composition's overall structure.

I am also a fan of new punk rock. Taking Back Sunday's "Tell All Your Friends" is an anthemic album that tugs at many strings, notably angst and self-conscious outcast. Thursday's "War All the Time" is a prime example of a relatively simple subset of music (emo/punk) reaching beyond its comfort zone into more controversial territory. Still organic, still cohesive.

"Cohesive", ironically enough, is not a word I'd use to describe Coheed and Cambria's "Good Apollo" album. It fails in both respects: it does not unify its theme (complex story) with its content (music & artwork) and the overall musicianship is subpar. Though I am not familiar with their previous albums (and therefore not familiar with the story that precedes it) I will strictly deal with this album as it stands alone.

At first glance, the album's song titles ("Ten Speed (Of God's Blood and Burial)", "Apollo I: The Writing Writer", "The Willing Well I: Fuel for the Feeding End") suggest an intricately woven story that will not easily reveal itself to the listener. A more negative viewpoint would say that the track titles are deliberately complicated; they are strange for the sake of strangeness. The artwork is dark, sinister and also suggests that the music will sound gothic or at least morose.

Convoluted story? Yes. Gothic, intricate music? No. What we have is the following:

A piano, string-quartet intro to start off the album. It begins with "Keeping the Blade", an instrumental piece that starts with a single ominous note, and gradually builds up to a full 4-string ensemble with a piano hinting at an eerie buildup. "Always & Never" is a warm acoustic piece that hints at singer/songwriter Claudio Sanchez' harmonized and pained vocals. Nothing heavy or intricate. "Welcome Home" takes this same acoustic guitar and adds a metal crunch to it. The song is 6 minutes of pinched vocals, squealing guitars, and epic strings.

This is as close as the album gets to its artwork and song title complexity. From there, you have simple guitar rock, campy "punk" songs, devoid of any real complexity. Songs that attempt to mimic odd time signatures ("Mother May I") end up sounding empty and poorly thought-out. Others, such as the insufferable mouthful "The Willing Well II: Fear Through the Eyes of Madness" are too flimsy to merit a 7-minute duration.

All in all, it is a lump of coal in a silver box. Attempting to say that Coheed and Cambria are bridging the gap between punk rock and progressive rock is almost insulting. The artwork and thematic construction of the album suggests that the songs will come together to create a progressive masterpiece. But (and I should have thought of this before buying it) it's an album written by an emo band. Though I don't want to discredit Sanchez' imagination, the music does not fit the rest of the album. He needs to up his songwriting to compete with the intricacies of his album's conceptual designs or tone the art in his future albums down to more accurately reflect the music within.

This is not a progressive masterpiece - it's a subpar emo album with a flashy exterior and one good song.

    Album Description

    Their classic 1968 debut. Emerging from London's UFO Club scene at the same time as Pink Floyd, The Soft Machine was a near perfect merging of psychedelic rock, jazz, pop and avant-garde stylings. Featuring the trio line-up of Robert Wyatt, Kevin Ayers, and Mike Ratledge, this debut album was, as the original liner notes state, "the sound of music updated by the music of sound."

    I love R Kelly and all of his music, and now to get some remixes from him is fantastic because while not all artists make good remixes; he has done a great job. The songs on here are all great songs to start with, but now most are enhanced really well. I especially love Your Body's Calling, I Can't Sleep Baby, Down Low and Step In The Name Of Love. They are the best cuts here but for all R Kelly fans, you won't be too disappointed. He's such a talented artist, and this is a fantastic addition to your R Kelly collection.

    4 out of 5 stars This Is.........The REMIX!.......2006-03-09

    Most R Kelly fans have everything this man has put out anyways. But for those who were late jumping on the bandwagon, Remix City Volume One serves up the hottest (and a few not so hot) remixes that span R Kelly's entire career. Remixes for classics songs like "Bump and Grind," "Slow Dance," "Your Body's Callin'," "Sex Me," "I Can't Sleep Baby," and "Down Low" already make this disc worth the money. Additional jams like the remixes for "I Wish (To The Homies That We Lost)," "I Mean (I Don't Mean It)" "Step In The Name Of Love,"and "Ignition" further exemplify the worth of this disc. Some songs like the two "Feelin' On Your Booty" remixes as well as "Slow Wind" and "Burn It Up" could have been left off and replaced with other remixess. I guess we'll have to wait for the obviously-needed Volume Two for any other jems.

    3 out of 5 stars just a point VOL. 2 coming soon.......2005-12-03

    i just wanted to point out b/c the review before me stated that all the remixes werent there which is something that also came to my mind when i listened and read the tracks . i wanted to point out this is VOL. 1 meaning 9 out of 10 there will be a VOL. 2 more money if u break it up :)

    4 out of 5 stars Nice Remixes.......2005-11-28

    This album remixes most of the classics and has some songs missing that we're remixed like Playas Only, Did You Ever Think & Fiesta but it is still good

    2 out of 5 stars only for those who are not familiar with r.kelly.......2005-11-26

    first of all, this album is clean! i mean, non explicit. you cant enjoy anything if you have songs filled with blanks and blurs.
    i wont say this album is bad. if you're a real r. kelly fan, then you should know or have had possession of these songs for a long line of years now. but if you're not a big r. kelly fan, then i would say this remix collection is a weak perspective of his better work in the past decade.
    like i said this is a clean record. it has removed the explicit content of his better songs like "live to regret it" from the "down low" single. ofcourse the remixes inspired from his original 12 play album are just CLASSIC! but once those songs are over you begin to see his style as it has changed over the years and you may even sense how much his remixes lack originality in the latter of the album. i think he really should have included remixes that i find missing from the late 90's like "gotham city remix"-which was an awesome remix, hell even the "street dreams remix" he did with nas was great! or the "did you ever think remixes" or the "i believe i can fly remix", how lush were those?!
    over all,this album is a great waste of new material, and could have positively been organized with what does exist in a better order but thats not what we got. this album is only a 5 star album to he/she whom has never had an r.kelly experience.
    and even if you wanted a better r.kelly experience, i would have to recommend his self titled album which was a great album in '95, and then the record "R." that he had was even better (not to mention a double disc), but the pinnacle of his best studio albums i would have to say to be "[...]". after that, you're just gonna have to make a draw for it, cuz r.kelly just isnt the r&b pioneer he used to be.

    Album Description

    Sumptuous sounds to ignite your passion. Slow motion vines to massage your spirit. The Groove Boutique: Volume One offers a delicious serving of one, the other or both, depending upon what you - or perhaps your partner - have in mind.

    The luscious montage of moods presented on Groove Boutique: Volume One were carefully selected and mastefully blended by Rafe Gomez, DJ/host/producer of The Groove Boutique, America's first and only nationally syndicated jazz mix radio show. Rafe's goal with Groove Boutique: Volume One was to create the world's first mix CD of laid back jazz and jazz-oriented tracks for the same audience that tunes in his top-rated program each week: discriminating, mature, and sophisticated.

    A diverse palette of vibrant musical colors is captured on Groove Boutique: Volume One. Many of the artists on the album are well known to devotees of smooth jazz, chill jazz, and nu jazz; others will be less familiar. But beyond the level of their creators' popularity, the selections on Groove Boutique: Volume One are united by four artistic attributes: lush production, impeccable performance, pristine songcraft, and irresistable hipness.

    Melt into the warm vibes. Surrender to the sensuous rhythms. And savor the mouth-watering flavors of Groove Boutique: Volume One.

    Blended, vibed & funkdafied by Rafe Gomez.

    4 out of 5 stars Very cool.......2007-01-21

    I would buy this album. Much better bought in a collection than buy itself. Its pretty smooth and awesome for roadtrip, quiet night at home, or have-friends-over mood music.

    Would buy again and may have to since somebody stole it!

    5 out of 5 stars ozzy gomez amazing/puerto rico.......2005-11-29

    When scouring the tracks on chill music compilations, it's hard to avoid the "usual suspects" of European producer-created songs that seem to be on every CD. This album, however, is in a whole different league. Not only is the content different (mostly artist-created and performed selections), the context is also unique: it's a continuous play mix CD, which means that all the songs are connected together - which is the same kind of presentation that you'd experience if hearing the music in a club. It's totally cool and a completely different approach to chill compilations. There are artists on Groove Boutique:Volume ONe that I've never heard of but I'm now totally into. I highly, highly recommend this CD to fans of chill music who want something different as well as people who are into smooth jazz who want something that's a helluva lot cooler than the usual stuff that they're exposed to on the radio. Best songs: Soulive, Headhunters, Alfonzo Blackwell, Jim Jam, Rafe Gomez.

    4 out of 5 stars Great goof around for scales practice..........2004-02-14

    If you are tired of practicing scales and modes with no idea for how they are useful, pick up this CD and try out your improv skills over some really nice sounding backups. All the components of a band are there (rhythm, bass and drums) except for lead guitar and vocals.

    The wide variety of keys and tempos is really great, but I do have to say that a lot of the tracks on the disc aren't as bluesy as I would have liked, and some are very close to being classic rock in sound. That is great, but I had really hoped to have some nice 12 bar to play in front of (there are enough of those to keep me happy).

    At the price, this should keep you entertained with a fun way to practice your scales in a non-linear fashion. I had a guitar teacher that used to do this same thing and we would play for 10 minutes a lesson, I think it really helped me to visualize the scales on the fretboard, which made my playing much more fluid.

    5 out of 5 stars A great collection.......2006-06-24

    What a hard job it would have been trying to compile this album. Skrewdriver have so many great songs and all their songs are their best. There`s no bad songs they`ve ever done. It would have been a big headache choosing which songs to put on this c.d. The best thing about this album is that it covers songs from their entire era. Songs from 1977 through to 1993 are on this collection so you can hear how Skrewriver evolved over the years. It`s about time people stopped sooking over this legendary band and give them the credit that they deserve. Rappers have the right to their freedom of speech and they`re constantly played on commerial radio, but when others want to tell the other side of the story and try and express their freedom of speech then they get banned and/or thrown in jail. Don`t be surprised if one day you`ll be arrested and locked up just for owning this album. There`s alot of different styles of music on this c.d. There`s punk, oi, ballads, rock and heavy metal. it just shows the wide range of talent this band had.
