The burning question for this soundtrack is, Can rapper Queen Latifah handle the vocal demands a Pearl Bailey-ish character singing standards by Billy Strayhorn, Irving Gordon, and Randazzo & Weinstein? The answer is yes. Her rendering of Strayhorn's "Lush Life" is particularly pleasant, and is produced and arranged beautifully by Mervyn Warren, who did most of the work on the album. Danny DeVito takes a stab at the Gershwins' "They Can't Take That Away from Me" and delivers it adequately, with a touch of charm. The disc also includes originals by Sly & the Family Stone, Dean Martin, and Mel Tormé. The only drawback is the slightly Muzak-like smooth-jazz score by George Fenton, presented in snippets at the end. --Aaron TassanoCustomer Reviews:

Aaron Lines hails from Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada, a remote little town 300 miles north of Edmonton. Living Out Loud, his debut, is a solid, if undistinguished, slab of heartland rock that recalls the work of fellow countryman Bryan Adams and, at times, John Mellencamp circa 1985. With the help of producer Chris Farren, Lines has crafted a set that initially sounds slick and powerful, but one that is ultimately undermined by trite lyrics and hackneyed musical ideas that were hackneyed years ago. Still, his freshly scrubbed look and smooth delivery will likely appeal to younger fans and to those who like their country with a rock edge instead of a down-home twang. --Jim CaligiuriCustomer Reviews:
Wow.......2005-04-09
Well, I LOVED his music and he sounds exactly like he does on the radio, which is an added bonus. His voice is so pure and he seems to really be singing from his heart, which it seems like lately a lot of musicians are not.
I would highly recommend this CD to anyone who likes catchy, but meaningful songs.

Customer Reviews:
A GEM.......2003-03-10
The Messiah Was Just Around the Corner.......2002-07-17
The current recording is mostly magnificent, with a militant Robert Tear, whose aria with chorus "The trumpet's loud clangor" is exciting in the extreme, with help from a resplendently recorded solo trumpet and the very alert Choir of King's College, Cambridge. My one slight reservation concerns Jill Gomez, who seems to be universally admired, so maybe I'm out in left field. But while I find her voice a highly responsive instrument for which Handel's difficult coloratura passages hold no terrors, for me it is also a trifle hooty, and Gomez' enunciation is not clear, especially compared to that of the clarion-voiced Mr. Tear.
But as I say, my reservation is a slight one, considering the great strengths of this performance: excellent playing from the English Chamber Orchestra, lush and colorful contributions from the solo instrumentalists (cello, flute, lute, trumpet, organ), and the superb work of the chorus and of Robert Tear. Not to mention that of Philip Ledger, who moves the proceedings at just the right pace, building the great climaxes thrillingly. Even the engineers are on their very best behavior, turning in a recording that is a model of clarity and vividness. A great work gets its due here.

what do you really need to say...........2005-02-05
What a strange mixture ............2004-10-02
Whilst Kerslake and Daisley have been part of the music scene for a long time and contributed to some great songs, their musical contribution is not "outstanding" and they provide a solid backbone, and no more, to Steve Morse and Jimmy Barnes.
I bought this album because I always thought the original Ozzy tracks were great ... and now here is a group that have the ability to make them even better ... what could possibly go wrong ?
Lets, to use a SM title, "Cut to the Chase" ... Steve is guitar playing's equivalent of a Brain Surgeon. IMO, rock tracks called "crazy train" and "flying high again" require more of the approach of a "Jack the Ripper". Whilst Steve plays riffs with energy and precision, when it comes to the solos, the band, more often than not, stop playing and allow him free reign ... and he struggles. His superb, clinically clean approach (which makes him so unique) cannot by itself create the manic energy and "hair on the back of the neck" moments required in all these rockers, and the band are doing nothing to help. Can you think of a SM track where his "heavy" playing alone has created the excitement and energy required of these tracks ?
I would love to see how the guys in Dream Theater could have done this. John Petrucci style is more than able to create the energy required to support the riffs, and Mike and John would have been belting out a powerhouse of support .. not standing back and admiring.
So that is my MAIN problem. The soloing, whilst excellent musically, they are out of character to the main riffs, and the energy level sinks, rather than rises .... But what of the music ?
The originals are good .. they are a little more laid back, and so my main problem is not so obvious. Some nice alternate picking accompaniments make for some good music. Jimmy Barnes voice takes a bit of getting used to, and is a cross between Joe Cocker and Brian Johnson of AC-DC, but is not bad.
The remakes are nowhere near good enough, in my mind, to satisfactorily answer the question ... why did they bother? They have added nothing, and have actually removed some of the energy levels from the tracks. Yes, they have some interesting playing from Morse, but they are 80's rock tracks which are just not in character with Morse's clean playing. I am not saying he CANNOT play this way ... There is plenty of evidence of his ability to really "shred", but he needs Van and Dave to compliment him, and help him out. He just does not get that help here.
Strange record ... some good tracks, but others leave you wondering WHY?
Living Loud redefines the image of super group.......2004-06-26
Great power rock, good tunes, very enjoyable!! There are 5 originals and 6
ozzy tunes. First off, the musicianship is great. Lee plays powerfully as
always, and Bob plays a thunderous bass. Morse is an exceptional guitarist
and plays passionately and versatilely throughout. The vocalist, Jimmy Barnes, is one of those raspy types that grow on you, like Springteen, Joe Cocker, John Kay etc. Beside no one can sound any weirder than Ozzy!! Don Airey plays some really great keyboards that are often easy to pick out in the mix. This cd redefines the image of Super Group!! Tight, cohesive playing with the true meaning of team work..
First the originals, Last Chance is a power rocker that starts off the cd. It features heavy guitar, heavy bass and is easy to sing along with. One of those songs that gets your hips moving and screams get up and dance!
"Every Moment a Lifetime" track 3 is a bluesy song that turns power rocker. The guitar just rings out in this song and vocal emotional and moving. The song ambles along nicely with an underlayment of some nice Hammond. It sort of reminds me of Uriah Heep's "Shelter From the Song" with its intensity and structure.
Track 5 is "In the Name of God" I like the message, so appropriate in today's times. The song is not syrupy at all, but powerful. I cannot predict the success of this as a single, it will be either a huge dud or a smash hit. It is that different and has that potential. The guitar work has an Asian sounding twang to it, I am talking region, not the group Wetton was in. Track 7 "Push me too hard" is killer!! I love it!! It first starts out with some ACDC sounding guitar riffs, but becomes more complex than ACDC ever would be. My highlight of the cd, featuring rip roaring guitar solos, some nice Hammond and overall a danceable rocker. Walk Away is a power blues rock ballads. Has emotional vocals, prominent keyboards and lots of changes throughout the song.
Now for the remakes! "I Don't Know" very true to the original, nice treatment and very powerful. "Crazy Train" has stunning guitar work and sound effects, Morse makes you forget Randy Rhoads, the playing is that great! The end of the song has a very cool vocal effect. "Flying High Again" featuring more power guitar work and outstanding vocals. One of the ozzy songs "Mr. Crowley" just blew me away. If Heep were to cover an Ozzy tune, this is what it would sound like. The opening Hammond riffs sent chills up and down my spine. It has a vocal sort of like Iron Man or 21st Century Schizoid Man. "Tonight" I at first thought was original, since the song to me sounds different then the original. A power ballad with emotional vocals, one of my favorite tracks on the cd. Lastly "Over the Mountain" closes out the cd, it is my opinion the heaviest track on the cd. Lee's drumming is fast and furious, Bob plays a thumping bass, the guitar work is screaming and Jimmy Barnes sounds like he is singing for his life. They put it all into this song.
Overall this cd is a winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boring, mindless and a sad day for some talented musicians.......2004-06-26
Shame on you OZZY.......2004-06-25
Power of the Blues" with gary Moore and it's well Gary moore nuff said!!!!!!!! Living loud is superb. Worth $100 dollars!!!
