Best known for 1951's "The Wild Side of Life," Thompson wed prewar Western swing to postwar honky-tonk and created a sound that proved viable both on the radio (where swing was usually ignored) and in the dance halls. He kept it up with a steady string of hits that included beer-drinking ballads, heart songs, folkish material, and flat-out novelties; though he plied a distinctly Texas sound, he was never shy about looking to the Southeast for material. His bands, often joined in the studio by guitarist Merle Travis, framed his vocals perfectly without ever taking the spotlight off the singer (and also cut instrumental hits such as "Wildwood Flower" on their own). With 20 tracks, this is the best single-CD sampler of Thompson's early work. --John Morthland

5 out of 5 stars The authentic original 40's & 50's Country + TRUE Country.......2007-05-28

I remember him from way back there in the late 40's to now. And whenever I couldn't buy anymore of his albums. That's ok, I just listened to my LPs and cassettes. Now I'm loading up on CDs. It's got everything: swing, western, honky tonk, blues and even twang(y) and "through the nose." I LOVE IT. I know better than to hope it'll come back. Because: it can NEVER be improved upon. I can live very well with what I've got. I've never seen the first thing bad written about him. He always seemed to be a very likable fella when I'd see him on TV (rarely), but we did use to get the Grand Ole Opry on Saturday nights on TV and the radio. And then there were the individual shows, like Porter, The Wilburn Brothers, and Hee Haw, etc, that he would be on.

5 out of 5 stars Top Grade Honky Tonk.......2007-04-17

This is a real cracker of an album and at the price it's a true bargain. Some call Hank a Western Swing artist however I cannot agree with this moniker. He's much more in the honky tonk mould and quick listen to this album confirms such. Apart from the monster (in depth and price) Bear Family set this is the best Hank Thompson album out there. It covers his period with Capitol Records (1947 - 1961) and, while he made some excellent music after this time, he had his biggest hits with Capitol under the production guidance of Ken Nelson. This album covers just about all those hits plus a couple of Brazos Valley Boys instrumentals (which are more in the Bob Wills Western Swing mould). Hank wrote or co-wrote 12 of the numbers here and shows he was not only a great singer and arranger but a superb songwriter. Another interesting aspect to this album is the obvious development of the artist over time and the improvement in recording technology and techniques. Also, the Brazos Valley Boys were one hot band that could swing it out when required and throughout supply complex, interesting and sympathetic support. Merle Travis supplies his trademark guitar work to many of the songs and he is in fine form indeed. The CD comes with a very informative booklet and the sound/mastering is top shelf making it an essential purchase. I encourage anyone looking for an album of 50's honky tonk in the, then, more "commercial" style at an absolute bargain low price to pop this in the trolley when next ordering music from Amazon. Highly Recommended.

5 out of 5 stars Great 40's and 50's Country.......2007-01-03

This is a respectable collection of popular songs by Hank Thompson and The Brazos Valley Boys, with release dates going from the 1940's to 1960. In my opinion, he hit his peak in the 60's, but this collection clearly shows the progression of early country music, in both style and lyric development. I recall Hank and his band as huge, but my view may have been skewed by my rural Texas surroundings. The later songs exhibit the honky tonk influence, which I consider the golden era of country. If you collect vintage country, this is indeed essential. I had all these on vinyl but the years took their toll, so it was great to have another chance at them.

5 out of 5 stars Vintage Hank Thompson.......2006-11-10

This is a really great CD for those who appreciate the old timey country-western.............it is primarily swing and toe-tappin! If you enjoy Hank Williams, you will love this CD. I highly recommend it! I am very pleased with the CD....the fast service and the continued excellence of Amazon.....................

This is my first solo album of his. I've got all the TTT albums. He's carrying on the soul touch.

3 out of 5 stars It's just okay.......2006-08-18

I listened to this song and thought it was just okay. I don't the understand the rave reviews for this cd. If you're looking for an excellent nu soul cd, get "The Love Experience" by Raheem DeVaughn. He is excellent!!!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Awesome Cd.... extremely thought provoking.......2006-01-31

I love this CD... Its almost hard to put into words how excellent of an artist Raphael Saadiq is. Each song as a unique flow and style, there's not a single song that doesn't have immense artist value. My favorite song on the cd is "Blind Man". The song is so, so deep. And if u can relate to the words, the meaning in any way... whether its on the surface, or deeper for some... it's just an awesome track, full of heart and sincerity. Raphael speaks to the Truth of music and Expression throughout this CD with perfection. It's a work of art and I'm very impressed. If u get the CD, I'm certain you will be impressed as well. Its music for the mind and u have to be in an appreciative state to embrace the vibe this CD puts out.

5 out of 5 stars Greatness!.......2005-10-16

I just dusted this one off and remembered that I had not written a review for it but I couped the week it dropped. Saadiq himself is Instant Vintage. Since Toni, Tony, Tone he has matured while still maintaining his musical genius and classy style. This whole project is so eclectic, R & B, and HipHop all in one breath that you can't go wrong. Lyrics that make you think, react, feel. Every track is one that I can appreciate. They are all my favorites.

5 out of 5 stars What an appropriate title!.......2005-10-04

I instantly liked EVERY song on this cd and am glad to see that there are artists out there still making REAL music.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Not for children.......2007-04-22

This was produced by Hal Willner at A&M in 1989 when Willner was 31. Willner has also produced albums for Marianne Faithfull, Lou Reed, Bill Frisell, William S. Burroughs, Gavin Friday, Lucinda Williams and Allen Ginsberg, among others. So it should be no surprise that this album is an eclectic mix and highly theatrical in concept. Several reviewers have criticized the use of medleys, but a great many Disney songs have only one verse and a chorus, which makes it difficult to make a full length cut, hence the medleys. It's an album that has aged very well and bears many repeat listenings. Tom Waits, Harry Nilsson,Suzanne Vega, Bonnie Raitt, Los Lobos, Betty Carter,Sinead O'Connor, James Taylor, Yma Sumac, and narration by Ken Nordine. It sounds as though it should be a real mess, but Willner has put it together so it not only makes sense but is more than the sum of its parts.

3 out of 5 stars Not hte best cd to buy.......2007-04-02

I have bought several Disney cd's like this one and this is my least favorite. Some of the arrangements I feel could scare a young child, like Hey Diddley Dee. The one that I do enjoy is the title song...It is very much the mother's lullaby being sung acapello.

5 out of 5 stars Disney a wee bit on acid........2006-06-09

What an eclectic grouping of artists that came together to make this work. The absolute best Disney tribute CD that adults will probably enjoy more than the children. Sinead deliberatly sings an entire song off key until the last note and it's perfect. There are wonderfull songs that you would expect, but with Tom Waits in the mix you must expect some "oddness". Overall a great CD. 5 Stars easy.

4 out of 5 stars Alternating dark , melancholy and wistful, good but for grown-ups only.......2006-05-16

I found that listening to this work end to end is going to put you in some peculiar moods. The overall feeling is definitely downbeat, even the up-tempo songs have a decidedly ironic and dark bent. My favorite song in this album has to be the exceptionally soulful rendering of "Baby Mine" by Bonnie Raitt; it turns the sentimental mother-child ballad into something more on the romantic side. I have often slow-danced this one with the wife, and you can really feel a hot intensity under the surface of this number. James Taylor's "Second Star To The Right" is exceptionally wistful in his trademark style. Sun Ra's cover of "Pink Elephants" remains true to the original while retaining the peculiar spacy Sun-Ra vibe. One of the more "accessible" Sun-Ra performances I've ever heard.

Tom Waits and Ken Nordine are commanding presences as well. The Tom Waits version of "Hi-Ho" made my wife's imagination conjure nightmare images of murderous doings in Gacy's basement; it creeps her out so badly, she refuses to hear one note of it. I prefer to imagine the dwarves in manic, Fred C. Dobbs-like pursuit of their underground treasure, working too fast in a mine full of hazards and fearsome environments... with a workplace like that, it's no wonder they'd really appreciate a Snow White coming into their lives. Perfect music if you are on your way to a job you hate...

I agree the Sinead O'Connor piece (Someday My Prince Will Come) and Suzanne Vega "Stay Awake" tracks are here mostly for their postmodern ironic effect, and I find them hard to listen to with patience. In Sinead's case, the shock value of her performance of this particular song choice gets dulled over time as people forget who she is and why her singing this is supposed to be funny.

The Nordine pieces, which bookend the album, really demand good headphones for best appreciation, and reward repeated listening. Cruising thru quotes of ee cummings, with puzzling snatches of what seems to be an audio montage of soundtrack clips from old Disney park attractions, and other spooky imagery, he conjures up a tour thru a darkened, haunted vault of musty film cans and ragged posters, the perfect place for an adult to look back on childhood perceptions and potentials and compare his youthful fantasies with the cold realities and incomplete goals and disappointments of old age. Pretty heavy stuff. Yet it manages to finish, if not upbeat, still, with a sense that we still have time left to wring meaning from our pasts, and to put ourselves on a path to personal redemption.

The whole album leaves me with this kind of feeling, as if I have passed unscathed thru something more dark and dangerous than I really understood, and survived to come out into sunlight on the other side. Like the old "dark ride" rollercoaster attractions of Disney's park, you will want to experience the ordeal of getting scared and surviving it again and again.

5 out of 5 stars Really good stuff.......2006-04-28

I picked this up on CD when it was first released and I was in college, it was always one of my dirty pleasures packed next to harder, grungier, and/or funkier stuff. Well, most of the other stuff has not stood the test of time too well, but Stay Awake still comes out every once in a while. Like the earlier reviewer, I frequently sing my daughters to sleep with Blue Shadows on the Trail ala Syd Straw, and my 2 year old has taken to singing along with me. My one complaint is the medley style of the tracks... some tunes rate an individual track, while other tracks might have three or four tunes faded together. Plenty of different styles on here to satisfy a wide variety of tastes, but it's the purer and more sentimental ones that have always stuck with me. I strongly disagree with the reviewer who thinks Aaron Neville was trying to sex up the Mickey Mouse Club march, I've always felt that his version is laced more with plaintive nostalgia than anything prurient. I've always wished that somebody would put together a Stay Awake 2, but if that means Jessica Simpson gets called in to remake Hakuna Matata, I'll pass.

There were plenty of slicked-back boys fighting for their share of the spotlight in the wake of Elvis Presley, but Wanda Jackson was one of the rare rockabilly gals of the '50s. It was Elvis himself who recommended that the Oklahoman set aside her country leanings for the time being and rock a little. That she did, drawing on a voice that cut through the din with a surplus of sass and a session band that included guitarists Joe Maphis and Buck Owens. This 20-song anthology mixes country and rockabilly sides, but while Jackson is likable tackling honky-tonk, she shines as a rockabilly spitfire. The likes of "Riot in Cell Block #9," "Hot Dog! That Made Him Mad," and "Let's Have a Party" offered an early affirmative to the question: "Can a gal rock?" The real mindblower here, however, is "Fujiyama Mama," which opens with Wanda boasting: "I've been to Nagasaki / Hiroshima, too / The same I did to them, baby, I can do to you." Pretty strange claim, considering only a dozen years had passed since two atomic bombs were dropped on Japan. --Steven Stolder

5 out of 5 stars She deserved a lot more!.......2007-03-14

From the birth of R&R in the mid-fifties till the end of the decade,
all the big stars were "raw" leather-jacket male singers. This music
wasn't for female interpreters. Nevertheless one daring young lady
didn't care about the by then unproper seen attitude of a gyrating
R&R girl. She was Wanda Jackson who had several of the best sung
rockabilly hits ever. Probably the best pure R&R song of
all times is "Let's have a party": everytime I hear that song
I get the "shiver" and one can't help start shakin' his body.
If Wanda had quit the Rock& Roll scene and turned into a sweet
kind of pop music, she would have been as great as Brenda Lee.
When I listened to the songs of this CD, I thought all these songs
could have been Brenda singing... Their voices are exactly the same!
Wanda, however, was forced to change her wonderful and real rockin'
style into Country which she did perfectly well and many of the
songs on this great CD are of that genre. As a matter of fact, after
each R&R song comes a C&W song. The quality is just out of sight.
What a pity they din't permit her to keep on rockin'. Her carreer
suffered a big halt in the 60's and never recuperated those first impressive
genuine R&R songs. It definitely wasn't for female singers those days.
That's one of the reasons why this CD is a real treasure!

4 out of 5 stars Real Country.......2007-01-12

Wanda is a great performer and sings true country not the junk called country today.

5 out of 5 stars fabulous 5O's.......2006-02-27

This record is a must from the middle of the 50's .
Excellent singer , very good musicians and an excellent recording .
This record is still amazing and seems to sound very modern due to the quality of the recording and the mastering.
I recommend this record to all rock and roll fans

5 out of 5 stars An inexpensive and great overview of Wanda's career..........2004-05-26

This cd is a perfect introductory one for a new fan, for it offers the two sides of Wanda... the rockabilly queen and the country torch singer, although there is a LOT more rockabilyl here(thankfully). This cd features rockabilyl classics liek Fujiyama Mama, as well as a blues "Kansas City Blues", and some country/honky tonk/rockabilly "I Gotta Know" and some hillbilly stuff too. A great cd, a great price, though if you want to spend a little more and get ALL the rockabilyl classics try Ace's Queen of Rockabilly or Bear family's Wanda Rocks or just for the Gold and get Bear Family's box set, Right or Wrong! Well, you migth just want to start here, fir this sampler is such a budget price and contians all her rockabilly ESSENTIALS, and shines her in a light as more then just a rock'n'roller. A versitile and great singer who could be rough and roudy and rev ger vocie up liek a 57 Chevy or could coo sweetly like a canarie! Great cd!!!

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Wanda.......2001-03-01

She was first female rocker, just now getting the long overdue credit she deserves....listen and wonder why it took so long, she needs to be the next to enter the R&R Hall Of Fame. Rock On Wanda!

5 out of 5 stars Just a great album.......2005-10-24

New Vintage is one that will drive one to play over and over. The arrangements , music and talent that are on this album is just amazing! If one likes jazz, this one's for you.

3 out of 5 stars Boring, But Still MF.......2005-08-31

This CD was one of the series of 70's releases from Maynard Ferguson that was loaded with great solos by the Boss and little else.

I recall thinking at the time how much the material on New Vintage sounded like the Conquistador release.

Maria is interesting and MF does a superb job with it but it ends up going nowhere.

Airegin is a great Mike Abene tune played very well.

Scheherazade with disco beats? Please! Despite the upper register playing from MF, this tune does nothing for the overall presentation.

If you're looking for a good MF CD to add to your collection, keep shopping.

But if you buy it, you WILL enjoy MF's playing (and hopefully you will enjoy some 70's style arrangements, too).

5 out of 5 stars WoW.......2005-04-22

Well, well well, I have got to declare that this album contains all that whitehot Ferguson firepower that us devotees have come to expect, and more!!! Maynard really unleashes the full hi-chops artillery. Some fans might be offended by the blatant porny sounding arrangements, however, for my pure MF listening pleasure, Scherezade is top shelf (listen out for Maynard's backing babes and the 'stylish' MF violin cadenza at the start), Oasis is smooth ecstasy, and as for the second half of Maria, BAM! As for Star Wars, I think George Lucas should really consider making Maynard an honourary Jedi and use him on the upcoming film, Episode III. Finally, the CD cover art is the epitome of MF in his full glory. CHECK IT OUT!

Buy this MFGOLD Now!!!

4 out of 5 stars Of all the MF recordings, this is one of them..........2005-04-01

Many of us who play trumpet learned by playing along with MF and Mangione records in the seventies. There is some overly commercial stuff here, but Airegin is worth the price of the CD. It is an old Slide Hampton chart, and Peter Erskine's drumming here rivals Buddy Rich even on a good day. Mike Migliore and Biff Hannon solo as if they'd been stuck playing disco for the whole rest of the session (I wonder why). It is also nice to hear MF come in on lead trumpet during the "shout chorus" before the A section at the end. And Erskine's last last seven notes are incredibly hip.

4 out of 5 stars New Vintage - Maynard Ferguson.......2004-08-28

Maynard Ferguson's "New Vintage" dates from 1977, around the middle of his contract with Columbia Records. His Columbia recordings were very pop oriented and extremely successful commercially, though when heard today are clearly a product of their time. Ferguson released one album per year and then toured the world, often performing in high school auditoriums and encouraging jazz education with an extremely exciting 12-piece band.

Ferguson's Columbia recordings fall into three vague periods. The first set, from "Alive and Well in London" (1969) to "Chameleon" (1974), featured a vicious band performing both straight-ahead and jazz-rock fusion charts recorded in real-time. His middle period, from "Primal Scream" (1975) to "New Vintage" (1977) incorporated studio musicians and guest soloists and
used extensive studio technique and signal processing. "Conquistidor" (1976) even yielded a top-40 hit, the theme from "Rocky." The recordings from the final period, from "Carnival" (1978) to "Hollywood" (1981), are a mixed bag, often betraying the strain for commercial acceptability, including more obligatory movie/TV themes (Rocky II, Battlestar Galactica), rigid pop covers (Baker Street, Star, 9-to-5), strange hybrid charts featuring background vocals (How Ya Doin' Baby, Toma Topa Woman), some excellent originals (Carnival, Spirit of St. Fredrick, Dayride) and a few straight-ahead standard gems (Aregin, Stella by Starlight, Naima).

"New Vintage" hails from the middle period and has a more cohesive band sound than the studio constructions of "Conquistidor" or "Primal Scream." All but one of the six charts were arranged by Jay Chattaway, who began his career writing for the U.S. Navy and followed his 70's band arranging work with a very successful film/TV scoring career, including hours of music for all the reincarnations of the Star Trek TV series. His moderately funky and accessible arrangements and compositions define the sound of "Primal Scream," "Conquistidor," and "New Vintage."

"New Vintage" follows the formula of "Conquistidor" almost track for track. "Star Wars" has pop hit written all over it, although it did not achieve the chart status of "Rocky." "Oasis" is the smooth brother of "Mister Mellow." A funky "Maria" equals "Star Trek" all the way to the freakish triple-high C nestled in the fade-out of the song. "El Vuelo" is an ersatz Spanish composition
similar to "Conquistidor." "Scheherazade" is a pop-funk classical adaptation in the mold of "Pagliacci" (from "Primal Scream"). "Aregin" is the odd-man out, a frantic traditional bop arrangement by Mike Abene that sounds especially clean with the album's dry production style and make you long for Ferguson's halcyon days with Stan Kenton's band in the early 50's.

While Ferguson's playing lacks the superhuman clarity of his work in the early 50's (he was 48 years old at the time of the recording), in some ways his lyrical tendencies mesh better with the soft-funk of "New Vintage" than the traditional jazz he pursued immediately before and after his Columbia days. The soloists are excellent, including a young Peter Erskine, saxophonist Mark Colby, flautist Bobby Militello and saxophonist Mike Migliore. Most of the sidemen were Ferguson's live band and given the passion and virtuosity they displayed in concert, it is a shame that their talent is often masked by the production technique and intentionally lukewarm scoring.

For those of us band geeks that came of age during this period, those high notes conjure happy memories of band trips and jazz festivals. While Ferguson's best Columbia recordings are, arguably, the early 70's MF-Horn series, none of those recordings are yet available on CD. The three mid-70's recordings have their own charm for those willing to take the time trip, and "New Vintage" may be the best of the bunch.

5 out of 5 stars Great Grape!.......2007-07-06

These guys were the quintessinal San Francisco Band - even though they co-existed with the Dead and the Airplane (not to mention Quicksilver), they had it all as musicians, singers, and writers. Too bad they were poorly marketed - I believe that their debut album came out as the same time as Sgt. Pepper in '67. In fact, I vaguely remember buying both in May or June of that year. These guys could play Blues, Rock, Country, Jazz, - even Swing - you name it, they could play it - and played it well they did. But, if I can paraphrase the CD's pamphlet, bad timing and marketing ruined them right from the start. Just give this a listen and you'll be hooked - their songs don't even sound dated - and they range in tempo and key - each one is completely different and enjoyable. I would consider the Grape as one of the best, if not the best, unsung heros of rock and roll. If you listen to these two CDs and walk away unimpressed, then it is my opinion that you are absolutely deaf.

5 out of 5 stars Its nice to have all this Grape in one place!.......2006-04-08

The San Francisco group "Moby Grape" consisted of 5 talented singer-songwriting musicians who blended rock, soul, country, blues and folk. Their self-titled debut album was stunning and definitely deserves it's classic status.
Unfortunately a few factors worked against the group: the wide diversity of styles set them apart from their contemporaries but probably alienated some listeners; they were also way over-hyped and they had such an odd blend of personalities (particularly the unstable Skip Spence).
It can't be denied that their musical output after the first album was a very mixed bag, but despite the fact that they never got close to matching the quality of the first record every album contains some excellent music. This is why a retrospective like this is the best way to appreciate their music. It's especially good for those new to the group and fans like me who have a bunch of old LP's and have longed for a compilation of their better material.
Thankfully, most of the "good stuff" is here, including the entire debut album, some rarities and a few curiosities. The individual members are well represented: lead guitarist Jerry Miller shines on songs like "Can't Be So Bad" and "Miller's Blues" and he shares the songwriting credit along with drummer Don Stevenson on some of their best songs like "Hey Grandma", "8:05", "Ain't No Use" and "Murder in My Heart For the Judge". (It's also no surprise that many place Miller in the same guitar league as Hendrix, Santana and Bloomfield). Bass player Bob Mosley's soulful voice is dynomite on "Mr. Blues", "Murder In My Heart.." and "Truckin' Man". Peter Lewis(son of the late movie-TV star Loretta Young) is probably the best singer-songwriter in the group and is great on "Ain't That a Shame", "Sittin' By The Window", "Right Before My Eyes" and uses his unique vocal vibrato to good effect on "What's To Choose". Last but not least creative and unhinged Skip Spence rocks on the classic "Omaha", does a nice live version of "Changes" and has 2 different versions of his strange "Seeing".
Individually they were all talented, but when they really gelled as a group it would be hard to find a better rhythm section and 3 guitars that blended so well. You then add vocal harmonies that can positively give you the chills and you've got Moby Grape at it's best.
The one thing this CD can't reproduce is the adrenaline rush of seeing the group live; Mosley with his bass hanging down to his knees, Miller all over his hollow bodied electric guitar, the 4 and 5 part harmonies and, although he was never my favorite on record, in concert the whirling dervish Skip Spence always stole the show.

4 out of 5 stars see all the other reviews for the history lesson.......2005-11-06

The Summer of Love was not easy on all of its revellers, regardless of their innate musical brilliance. Moby Grape definitely got the short end of the stick.

Considering the musicality of such catchy rock numbers as the quick-fingered "Aint No Use" or the resolute "I Am Not Willing," it's stunning their name isn't dropped more frequently with the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, or even Quicksilver Messenger Service. They could rock harder than most of their contemporaries, often were more delicate and concise too, and had the added firepower of 3-part vocal harmonies which put them in a league with the Byrds.

All the right ingredients can be present and still not result in success or acclaim. These are the hits you never heard, and an unfiltered taste of the San Francisco sound in the late sixties.

4 out of 5 stars as hard as this was to get my hands on..........2004-08-05

...i expected more.

so what is this> this is a 2-disc package of moby grape's good stuff. everything you need in one place. moby grape was the 60s san francisco psychedelic band you never heard, but it was also arguably the best. buffalo springfield, creedence clearwater (admittedly a far superior band), grateful dead, all of these SF bands went on to attain worldwide fame, and though moby grape should've been neck and neck with them, terrible management, misdirected promotion, and inner turmoil destroyed them before they even had a chance. the debut album, included here in its entirity, is considered one of the greatest albums of the 60s, indeed, one of the greatest debut albums of all time. and it is very good, but i've never been a huge fan of harmonized vocals...i much prefer a single prominent lead singer. nonetheless, this is a near-perfect record. the rest of the stuff is good too, and some of it i like even more, as they eventually drifted away from the harmonies-only approach. if you like the grateful dead and buffalo springfield and crosby stills & nash, you'll like this even more.

4 out of 5 stars Rich, but imperfect anthology.......2002-11-03

There's a certain ironic consistency in this anthology being a slight misfire. Given the long-string of events that negatively affected the band's commercial fortunes, a perfectly realized retrospective would almost be unfitting. Still, given that the Grape's first three albums are currently only available from the band's former manager (and arch nemesis) Matthew Katz on his Los Angeles-based San Francisco Sound label, and that the debut lists for a ridiculous price (and the reproduction of "Wow/Grape Jam" is incomplete), hunting down a copy of this out-of-print 1993 collection is still your best (and perhaps most morally fulfilling) bet.

Though compilation producer Bob Irwin (who now heads Sundazed records) is an obvious Moby Grape enthusiast (as is David Fricke, who wrote the excellent liner notes), some of his choices for this collection are hard to understand. Of particular consequence is the reproduction of the first album in its entirety (good!), but with bits and pieces of studio chatter inserted here and there (very, very bad). The debut was a beautifully produced and tightly crafted package, and the additions are hugely distracting. The inclusion of original mono single versions is a nice touch, especially given that producer David Rubinson's stereo mixes reproduce poorly in mono.

The selections from the remaining Grape albums leave out a few key tracks, such as "Three-Four" from the "Wow" album, and virtually all of "Truly Fine Citizen" (a contractual obligation recording, but still valued by Grape fans). What's here is excellent, and serves as both a fine introduction and fitting reminder of the Grape's greatness. The demos and live tracks are nice additions to the Grape canon, but they're no substitute for having complete, unenhanced, versions of the albums available. This 2-CD set is out-of-print in the U.S., but can still be found used on Amazon's U.S. site, and new on Amazon's U.K. site ....

4-1/2 stars, if allowed fractional ratings.

I never thought I would own a Michael Bolton CD! I heard this one playing at a cocktail party while on vacation and I fell in love with the mix. This is a great CD to play while relaxing in your kitchen at home---cooking a great dinner for two. I highly recommend it...

2 out of 5 stars Okay..........2006-09-30

This was an okay album. Michael doesn't seem to put any emotion into the songs, almost like he was forced to do the record. I definitely wasn't feelin' it. As much as it hurts to say it, I can only squeeze 2 stars out of this one.

5 out of 5 stars Heard this album in an antique shop........2006-09-01

Heard this album in an antique store and thought it was an old
Louis Prima record. We were shocked to find out it was Michael
Bolton. Lovely old love songs are from a more gentle, romantic
era. We are baby boomers and remember our parents dancing to these songs, so they are nostalgic. It's a great album for
anyone who wants to touch places, times, and people in the past.

5 out of 5 stars Vintage Soul Classics.......2006-07-12

This is a great CD with wonderful classic songs sung beautifully by Michael Bolton. I believe that all of the negative one star reviewers belong to the "LET'S TEAR MICHAEL BOLTON DOWN COMMITTEE." Their comments seemed to be based on their dislike and jealousy of Michael, and not on his music. When you know that you can sing, and you know that you look good, and you have that many people hating on you, then you gotta know that you must be doing something right.
Keep up the good work, Michael, and keep praying, and keep your head up.

I have over 50 CD's now, containing the Hotel Costes series, Cafe Del Mar, Private Lounge, and many many more. This CD has quickly become one of my top favorite CD's to listen to - at anytime during the day - it's incredible. I have this CD right next to, or even just one point higher than Serve Chilled 3, which is the absolute Pinnacle of Electronica.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD But Not Just Chill Tracks.......2006-01-30

Not that all the tracks aren't intriguing, interesting, fun, or even brilliant but note that some tracks are closer to bossa nova/trip hop than straight 'chill,' or just easy samba - nothing wrong with that but you will have to mix/shuffle the tracks a little.

5 out of 5 stars Music for Wine Lovers.......2003-08-01

This is a unique take on the downtempo, chillout genre. Kudos to the record label for thinking of this concept. Favorite songs - Bossa No. 5, Music to Watch Girls By (God help me, I remember the original version!).

5 out of 5 stars Excellent relaxing songs.......2003-05-14

I first heard this album at a friend's home. He was playing it during dinner. The songs blended perfectly with the overall mood of the evening. I've since bought mt own copy and can't get enough of "Vintage Chill". Last Tango in Paris by Gotan Oroject and Please Lord by Steve Austeen are both standout tracks. Can't wait for volume 2!
