A lot better than I expected
|
Salonen made a terrific recording of the Mahler Third Sym. in spectacular 20-bit sound, soon following up with this recording of Das Lied. It's in the same vein of super-clear, detailed articulation rather than emotional overstatement, and it's very enjoyable, too. Domingo isn't just checking off his list of "All the Music a Tenor Could Possibly Sing." His singing here is gorgeously toned, and he is doing his best with the Germann. Skovhus has the bigger job, projecting a low male voice into the plush, plangent territory of a woman's part. But he does a good job, at least equal to his major rivals, Fischer-Dieksau and Hampson, sounding more lyrical than either. Ultimately, however, it's the gorgeous sound and Salonen's modern approach that draw me in. I have no desire to own a baritone Das Lied after this, yet am well satisfied to have such as good one.

Piece of junk

After about 3 months it falls off the faucet and is no longer useable. A big waste of money. We had problems with another PUR model leaking so we thought this one might be better. Not at all.

Didn't work at all.
|
I'm still not sure entirely how these are supposed to work, but I tried every sort of twist and turn I could to get these to stay in my ear, but they would never stay in and be in a position that I could actually hear anything. I had several family members try it and none could get it to sit right. Maybe we just have strange ears.

Bret Hart is my hero....NOT!
|
In the beginning, Bret is king in the WWF and all is good. He turns heel and is somewhat removed from the "hero" spotlight. He's ready to leave for a bigger contract to WCW(that turned out just perfect ,huh?), and refuses to lose his title because he is a selfish egomaniac. End of documentary, end of Bret's career.

Not my favorite Ryan Gosling Movie
|
The film tries to depict a real slice of life, the way it would appear to the person living it. As a result, it's boring beyond belief. There are a few redeeming scenes, but not enough to make me want to watch it again.

Once more enter the darkness and meet Bergman.
|
"From the life of Marionettes" is a dark tale told by its multiple and unreliable characters. The plot begins with a shocking event through which the main character is introduced, where the audience is forced to judge him by the face value. What comes after is one of the most beautiful manifestations of Bergmanian prophecies: liberal, bitter, and extremely dark. This is a psychological hallucination, a bizzare experience in human relationship. Watch and levitate.

Under Fire on One Page
|
I have read every one of WEB Griffins books, all of the series, and have enjoyed them all. But I must say this book feels like he wrote it in his sleep. Out of the book's 600 plus pages, there was one page, that's right, one page, of "shots fired in anger". I just couldn't believe it. Never have I felt so betrayed by an author.This could have been, MIGHT have been, put together from excerpts of his other books. Mostly character descriptions, descriptions of past events tying characters together, explaining relationships and the like. But no action to speak of, and when it shows up, it's not worthy of the Killer.This book is not worthy of Killer McCoy. It makes me sad. The loss of the money is one thing, the demise of an excellent character is far sadder. Don't buy this book.

Good TV, Bad Company
|
I purchased this TV several years ago and it was a great tv in the short time it worked unfortunatly after about 14 months it stopped working so then i began the task of trying to get it fixed.here is where i began to regret buying this TV. First off Olevia doesn't make any of the parts on their own (my particular tv was made with LG-Phillips components i know they also use many sharp components as well as some other companies) The only iteam that Olevia does make is the TV case. so when it comes to any replacement (in warranty or not) Olevia is completely worthless.I would suggest to anyone considering buying a Olevia TV is that you just dont. Spend the extra money on a name that will stand behind their product, and one that will have a fair chance of repair if anything should happen in the future. I have spent a year trying to track down a replacement part for my 237V and in that time have failed to find any (Including contacting LG-Phillips).

Would not recommend
|
I did not like this book. I have read books before where I didn't like the main character, but I found the two main characters unbearable. What kind of person sleeps with her best friend's husband and doesn't give it a second thought? A good writer would've given me something to like about these characters, some way that I could relate to them or understand their decisions. Nothing. I never felt that the characters were fully developed. It was an interesting idea, but the characters were way too flat and one-dimensional. It didn't seem realistic at all (and not even because of the time traveling aspect).

Dead like us, after that

This movie is the worst atrocity which we can make for this mythical series.It is a shame from the beginning to the end. Sarah Wynter is grotesque.This movie is a massacre!! They do not respect the history of the show!!In the series, when George wants to reveal she's alive, she forgets quite the parts of her life which she wishes to reveal. It is sad!and her memory of this moment is gone forever.There, we wonder that the scriptwriters had an idea.This movie is simply an insult about which we do not know for whom it addresses, nor where they really want to come there.Finally, me, I know! They made worse than Alias and X-files.

you wont get anything back!

okay look heres the deal. My allowance is 5 dollars a week, and as you can see, this item is 30 dollars. after 6 weeks of shoveling dog poo, I could finnaly buy one. but when I got it, the problems started. first, I didnt see any difference on my games. second, I realized nintendo wasnt coming out with any new games That needed it to play. Third, there was still that blury sound, even while playing a old game that is compatible with it! its not the tv, because we have home theatre and when we watch a movie the sound is crisp! my advice:its a waste of money, and it wont work.

Brass??

Advertised as brass but is brass only in color. Always reads 2 degrees high and am afraid an attempt at dismanteling to adjust will render it a total loss. Like they say, you get what you pay for. Another fine example of Chinese craftsmanship.

Avoid it like a Belgian chocolate truffle
|
I went through an extended phase of denial after plonking this waste of digital recording space into my CD player. One theory was that Bryan Ferry and Robert Palmer had been somehow merged (a la 'The Fly') into one floppy-fringed, pleat-trousered hack by some evil scientist intending on cashing in on the AOR appeal of the newly-commercialised Bowie.But then the awful reality sank in. It really WAS him. And he was fully and solely responsible for inflicting this collection of unimaginative dross on the public.It took several spins of 'Diamond Dogs', 'Scary Monsters' and 'Heroes' before I felt all right again. And I now issue this government health warning to all unsuspecting consumers who are contemplating parting with their hard-earned $17.97: spend it on one of the other albums.

Never used the tub
|
First let me say that the mesh sling was great until our on was old enough to roll-over. We used it by itself in the bath. But the tub is terrible. The part that you push to collapse the tub is right on the baby's spine and he cannot get comfortable. And the ring doesn't fit right, so my son slides forward and it smashes his crotch. We just have him sitting up in the bath.

A Bad, Misleading Movie
|
I didn't read the Anne Rice novel that the movie is based on, but the way the movie was marketed, I thought that Aaliyah was the star. I was sadly mistaken. Stuart Townsend is the star and Aaliyah is only in a few short scenes. Even though Aaliyah wasn't in the movie that much, the story was not the greatest. I loved the move Interview With a Vampire, but this movie was totally off the mark.

Great pregnancy gift!
|
Oh, Baby the Places You'll Go makes a great gift for expectant mothers and fathers. The forward to the books explains how reading to babies in utero affects them. The story takes bits and pieces of Dr. Seuss favorites and combines them to create an adorable story about what lies ahead for the new baby and the anticipation that parents are feeling. It might even bring a tear to your eye!

Don't believe the hype
|
If you like books with loads of boring, pseudo-intellectual dialogue and an obnoxious protagonist, then this is the book for you.Pros - Descriptions of Amsterdam were well-written, Geertrui's story was reasonably interestingCons - Too long, boring and stilted dialogue, contrived plot, several shallow characters who don't add anything significant but play prominent rolesHUGE disappointment after all the hype this got in the review literature, definitely written for an older audience than teens.

Flat and Tedious

The book's characters are flat. The author puts too much detail in without advancing the story at all. There is no development of either plot or character. He could have told the same story in fewer than half the number of pages. It is not worth the time. Don't read it.

Of strong interest for Christian metaphysical enthusiasts
|
Understanding the life of Jesus is what every Christian truly seeks to do. "The Essenes, Children of the Light" discusses the life of Jesus and seeks enlightenment through the use of past life regression and knowledge of the Essenes. Of strong interest for Christian metaphysical enthusiasts, "The Essenes" should be heavily considered.

Tempos are Lethargic!

Why is "Procession of the Sardar" taken so slow lately? My recording of Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops is so energized and my old recording with Anatole Fistoulari on and RCA LP is so much more energized! Both Fagan (NAXOS) and Gluschenko are so slow! It seems that elephants are processing! I also do not like Tjeknavorian's because of the cavernous sound. In the 3rd symphony, Stokowski and Tjeknavorian win hands down-at 18 minutes apiece, at least the experience is not as long as Gluschenko's-25 minutes! It just goes on and on!! This CD needed lots of pumping up. It sounds to me like a rehearsal instead of a finished performance. Keep your fingers crossed for a A1 recording of the Sketches in the future.

perfect bass clarinet reed case

This is the perfect reed case for bass clarinet! The reeds fit perfectly into the slots, and the case is very sturdy, but it is not overly large or heavy. I have found many bass clarinet/tenor sax reed cases where the slots were too small too really fit bass clarinet reeds, but this one is a perfect fit! The lid on the case stays on during travel, but it is still very easy to remove. The reeds come out in perfect playing condition!If you are only looking to carry a round a couple of reeds at a time, this is the ideal case!

I give paper fortune a 3-4 out of five stars. The Kindle edition is horrible, a complete waste of time. You get a few of the main articles, but most of the rest of what shows up turns out to be tiny little bits of junk: Text boxes and pullout-garbage (I used to work in the magazine world) that is essentially page filler in the printed editions. I thought this was so cheap it would have to be worthwhile, but unless they include more meat, this is a total waste of money. Better to get the WSJ or Financial Times.

A great beach read!
|
It is always a pleasure to read a good book. Alice Hoffman is a literary "witch" who weaves a little magic into each of her novels. Although this is not one of her best novels (try TURTLE MOON or HERE ON EARTH)---it's really a little too short to explore any of the character's psyche or motivations---Ms. Hoffman has given the reader another pager turner full of glorious prose. She makes ordinary life extraordinary in each of her novels, and she has fast become my favorite author.

Fable or fabrication?
|
Although Amazon.com's review and the Author's review try to "sell" the book, I have read it and am not impressed. But then again, making money is more important than providing a good piece of writing. I agree with writer when s/he comments about the similiarity to Reichert's poem, also titled "What Love Is", but only in idea and tone. The poem is autobiographical, dealing with Reichert's first experience with love and the lessons she learns as she grows up about "What Love Is". This poem, written in honor of her deceased child - an organ donor, has appeared in many publications. The book by Pearson appears to follow a similiar path but packages it's message in a confusing and disjointed manner.

The Lost Heart of Asia
|
In The Lost Heart of Asia, Colin Thurbon travels through the central Asia countries that gained independence after the break up of the Soviet Union - those mysterious countries that are commonly called the -Stans. We are exposed to an area largely unknown to the West, yet an area that is rich in history and diverse in its population. The area is slowly coming out from under the shadow of Soviet rule, having to find its own personality and its road into the future. Thurbon's outlook is generally melancholy, leading to an understanding that the future is uncertain and most probably pretty grim. This outlook got to be a bit depressing. All vultures to which I have been exposed have both positive and negative aspects. It would have been more honest and helpful to discuss more of the positive. Overall though the book was an interesting and informative read.

Illuminating if a bit dense
|
John Kay is one of those writers with the rare knack for making economics understandable, and his skills are in full display in this book. Kay offers a sophisticated critique of the assumption that markets can, on their own, guarantee prosperity, and he shows how culture and institutions play a crucial role in driving economic growth. At the same time, he rejects facile attacks on capitalism, arguing convincingly that markets remain the most powerful engine of prosperity ever invented.Kay's style is generally quite readable, but at times here -- more so than in his FT work -- he gets bogged down in theory and detail, and there are ponderous passages to wade through. On the whole, though, this is illuminating stuff, and anyone interested in understanding why some parts of the world are rich while others are poor should take a look.

By Lantern's Light
|
By Lantern's Light is a fascinating book, telling the story about what women accomplished during the Civil War, both on the fields and behind the lines in rendering battlefield relief. The story presents all the drama of that era; yet love, adventure and humor play well upon the pages, enticing the reader to read on. Being a nurse, I really appreciated what women were able to do during that time period and with so little. By Lantern's Light is a good read and a interesting historical novel.

Entertaining Little Book

My daughter is just over 2 months - I can't get her to concentrate on anything for more than 5 seconds - but I can just hold the book up (the one I have has a caterpillar on the front) and she just smiles and smiles. Most of the pictures are bright and colorful and she loves hearing "Hola, pato" over and over. Even if she never looks at it again I will have gotten my money's worth. It's a durable book and well done. The pronunciation guide is great and I look forward to her being able to practice saying the words when she gets older - hopefully I will have the pronunciation down by then.

Inspiration for traditional applique
|
This book provides great color inspriation from antique applique quilts and full size patterns.It is easy to follow and good for a begining applique quilter because the patterns included are full sized,easily traced onto template plastic, and not overly complex in design. Many of the designs have larger pieces with gentle curves,which make easily to needle turn designs.Black and white quilt diagrams included give the quilter layout ideas. I enlarge these and used color pencils to try out color combinations. Anyone interested in traditional applique should add this to their library.

The internal strife of a small town former hero...
|
Grisham strays far away from his typical legal battle du jour in this tale of the internal struggle of a former small town hero. The main character Neely Crenshaw is a former star quarterback and must battle his own demons to figure out how to pay homage to his former coach. There is a secret that has haunted them both for years, and no one in town ever found out the truth...until now...If you enjoy heart-touching fiction in the style of Mitch Albom ("Tuesdays with Morrie", "The Five People You Meet in Heaven") then you very well may enjoy Grisham's latest. However, if you are looking for his usual action-packed legal thrillers, then this is not the book for you. Keep that in mind and this book can be a good read for almost anyone.

No sleeping pill needed for me-if I ever can't sleep, I will just pick up this book and try to finish it. I will be asleep in minutes.

I wish I had never wasted my money on this one. I hope it is not an indication of books to come. Please, Ms. Cornwell if this book was a joke, don't ever do that again. Your readers are not amused.

Read good reviews and articles in magazines, liked the idea, and what a disappointment. The music is nice, but then that voice! Horrendous! Also, why waste time, go back to the originals this band is copying: Tom Waits, Leon Redbone, Dan Hicks, Django, etc. The voice and delivery are supposed to be quirky and evoke the time period, but it's like nails on a blackboard.

Absolutely Awful
|
What a major letdown after A Very Special Christmas 1 & 2! These artists sound like they couldn't really be bothered with recording any holiday tunes; whether traditional or secular. Nothing stands out on this collection. Don't bother to waste your time and money.

Summer Fun Movie
|
I enjoy many David Boreanaz movies I quickly moved from Buffy, to Angel,& watched all the movies in between but this movie truly shows Boreanaz' wide scope of acting, the movie itself reminded me of the Breakfast Club movie theme of 3 young teenagers graduating highschool and relating there summer fun story to the viewers and how it helped them i'd like to say mature in a way, but i'll keep with move on. A town hunk gets caught sleeping with one of the 3 girls, the other two decide to blackmail him, so they may have what they think of as mature, adult, sex with a "real" man , what happens instead is an uproar of laughter, & a goodtime.I felt Boreanaz was cut short in The Crow and wasn't allowed to show his full scope of acting, but fortunately not in this movie, he is absolutely charming , hilariously funny, and shows there is no limit to his acting capabilities, If your a fan of summer fun movies, this one is for you.

Not as good as the rest,
|
Kiss of the Highlander and The Dark Highlander are written far better. Beyond the Highland Mist is an odd side story and is better read by people who haven't read Moning before. Over-all this was pretty much a disappointment. She's a great writer, but this is definitely better suited for my grandmother.

Wrong Product
|
I am sure the batteries are fine but these are replacement batteries that Amazon recommended for a dog training collar that I bought. Unfortunately they are the wrong batteries.

I am not a christian and don't like much rap, however the inventive lyrics and smooth beats are a hook. Composition 1 and San Diego are amazing. Its victorian Wu Tang.

A GOOD SLEEP
|
With these sheets, I love getting into bed at night. The smooth texture feels good on the skin, and on a cool night they are cozy warm. My only criticism is that they need to be ironed to look nice.

Great slide / film scanner. SilverFast software has a Mac feel in the Microsoft Windows environment and requires Quick Time software. You will WANT IT for removing dust and light scratches and adjusting color.

The Slowness of Muisc
|
For the music itself, it is a beauty, but not abstract trio jazz. The bassist provides a moderate and less aggressive support to the body with and occasionally randomly arranged solos, while the drummer is felt rather than heard for most time. The subtle piano improvisations mesh elegant whispers in an atmosphere of slowness. What does slowness mean to music? I barely realized that before I knew the band Red House Painters from San Francisco, playing music as slow as if time has frozen, and was labeled as sadcore music.Yes! The band definitely gives me a cross-genre feeling of Red House Painter, but tells a different story - a story about the beauty of slowness of music.

5 Harmonica Stars!
|
Darrell Mansfield is probably one of, if not the greatest Harp player alive today. Listen to these tracks and you'll hear why! Ever have a moment when chills run down your spine? Well, that's the best way to describe these tracks. From his gutsy raw vocals to his tearing up the harp you FEEL his music!! Darrell Mansfield plays the harp like Eddie Van Halen plays guitar. He Rips it up!!From the first time I heard "GET READY" by"The Darrell Mansfield Band" at Cavalry Chapel in Costa Mesa, CA. I became a Darrell Mansfield fan.T. Roy Taylor

Unlikable characters
|
Why is it that so many romance writers only know how make a heroine strong by making her sarcastic? I really didn't get into the characters. The heroine was inconsistent - gullible one minute, suspicious and caustic the next. The hero was a good lier and of course had lots convoluted reasons that he needed to lie to her. Blah. If I'd had time to go to the book store, I wouldn't have finished this one.

Loves it

My Private Jet is black with gold and multicolor holographic glitter. A classic shade! The holo is pretty subtle so it's very wearable and the wear time is great. You can wear for a good five days without any big chipping. This is a color for every collection!

It is a great game for kids, and a fun game for teenagers (if you add to it the 2 cards/unknowns it is even more).

Extra features were promised and not delivered!
|
When I ordered this dvd I MADE SURE IT LISTED EXTENDED DANCES in the description. I gave it as a present BECAUSE of that feature. I only recently found out that it does not include the long version of the dance routines. The product features has been updated to the "correct" info, but I am very, very disappointed because I searched ALL the ordering options.

Politics for the Non Political
|
I'd never really minded Blur, maybe because I'm an Oasis fan. But I downloaded some songs out of Think Tank after it won an award for best album over in the UK. I had to immediately buy the album. It is a clever, slow paced, loving signature of Damon Albarn's thoughts on commerciality and stupidity of the U.S.A . Albarn's melodies reflect on war in not a very profound level, easy political views for the non political.It's a good thing Gallagher's wishes were not fulfilled and Albarn has not died out of Aids, he and Blur have offered a superb album with sounds that from the Moroccan Republic to the night life of a broken city filled with lights, sights and sounds and war.

Just how serious are you?
|
50 Coastin' Classics is a superb collection of Coaster's music, and the production values are superior. The vocals and instrumentation are clean, without much of the muddied sound so prevalent in recordings of this era. Additionally, almost miraculously, these are original recordings, not the cheesy remakes that are flooding the market.That said, only a true devotee of the Coasters needs this anthology. The group had only six legitimate hits, all of which are available on more concise collections. You'll have to search a bit to make sure you're getting originals, but they are out there. However, if you are a Coasters fanatic and want everything they've done in a quality package, don't pass on this one. It's outstanding!

Big Disappointment
|
I was shocked to find this CD so disappointing, that I only could listen to 4 of the 18 songs all the way thru without hitting the "forward" button on the stereo. Definitely not the Mac of the past, and for sure I won't ever buy anything of theirs in the future. I have never been moved to write a negative review before, but I have to say this is probably the worst CD I have bought in a few years. Guess I should have listened to more samples before buying it out of the adoring faith of past work..... my mistake indeed.

High Fructose Corn Syrup???!!!!!!!
|
The bag I got from my vet does not list HFCS in the ingredients. I was shocked to see it in the ingredients here and at other online stores. I guess Butler has changed their formula recently?You have to be an extremely bad pet owner to knowingly give your dog HCFS or any type of sugar on a regular basis.What kind of sick company produces this?!

Internet predator on the lose
|
This is my review on Katie.com by Katherine Tarbox. 13-year-old Katherine Tarbox meets 23-year-old Mark on the internet. Katie thinks that Mark is an excellent swimmer, good student in school, good-looking, etc. But one night mark called Katie and convinces her that he should go to her swim meet.I really liked this book. It taught me about all the dangers that we have on the internet. So if you ever meet somebody you don't know on the internet just use one of your BLOCK icons and he or she can't bug you any more. I think kids who are 12 and older should read this bookThank you for reading my review. I hoped you enjoyed it. So read this book today. I gave this book 4 stars ****.

Pricey - but perfect for my needs
|
I purchased two of these two weeks ago. It is a bit pricey for a large sheet of tacky paper and a few mounting tabs, but it fit my needs perfectly. The shipping problem mentioned by an earlier reviewer has been corrected, because this came packaged just fine, backed by a solid piece of cardboard. I need two more to do the other side of my cabinet, but the price has just increased to $16.47 each from the $12.95 I paid and I will not buy them unless the price comes back down.

Great Theology in One Volume
|
Mueller's Dogmatics, a summary of F. Pieper's three volume Christian Dogmatics, is an excellent tool in the study of orthodox Lutheran theology, and well worth studying. My only complaint is the number of typographical errors in this Kindle edition. At the price one pays for it (and the content is worth it), we should expect a properly proofed, and mostly typo free edition.

Not Too Interesting for Me
|
The setting is a small town by a river. Tom Sawyer is a trouble maker and a prankster. His friend, Huckleberry Finn, lives in the woods with a barrel for a home. One night they go into the graveyard and wittnessed the murder of Doc Robinson. Will Tom and Huck tell anyone about the crime???You'll have to read it to find out.The book was o.k. It's not my type of story so I wasn't really interested. I guess it's because it's an old-fashioned book, I'm more into Harry Potter.

Ghost In the Shell Solid State Society Is Good and Worth Buying
|
I liked solid state society, and I think that if you like the stand alone complex series, you will like solid state society as well. It is more like the 2nd gig than the original stand alone complex series. The quality is great. It is rather convoluded though, as ghost in the shell can be at times, but I would say its no more complex than 2nd gig was, and for the most part, it is an interesting cyberpunk action movie. I strongly recommend getting the soundtrack. It comes with the steel book edition (only $1 more on amazon when I bought it). Yoko Kanno's music is absolutely fantastic. This soundtrack is much more in the classical genre, but there are also some good techno/pop tracks.

A Musical Vehicle to Try Something New
|
I believe that this was a very good album, it captured the mood of the concerts. The album may seem slow to some people, but these are the people that claim to have gone to a Led Zeppelin concert but never actually did. The actual concerts had slow spots that led to strong, loud spots. All of those out there that put down this album just don't realize what Led Zeppelin was about, I guess you just have to be a fan!

Towel Warmer doesn't really warm. . .
|
I bought this towel warmer as a gift for my husband and was horribly disappointed with it as was he. The bar got very warm while the towel stayed nice and cool. We even tried the suggestions of putting several towels on it at a time, this too failed. This product may be okay if you're looking for a drying rack but don't be fooled in to thinking that it will warm your towels.

I dig the Brand New heavies&Finally got to hear this album recently&felt a let down because the trademark grooves&arrangements ain't there for me. this album doesn't really have that One song that I gotta hear over&over again. Boogie&I feel right are cool. the rest feels like filler. I hope they ain't trying to hard to appeal because this ain't the right step.

Monotonous, Implausible, Convoluted and Confusing
|
Let Me Call You Sweetheart, by Mary Higgins Clark, read by Bess Armstrong. A convoluted and seemingly implausible tale. Not MHC's best by a long shot, but may have lost a lot in the abridgement, which is pretty awful. Too many characters (and too many of them lawyers!) and the setting jumps between New York or New Jersey -- never quite sure. Finally, Bess Armstrong has a smooth, lovely voice, and excellent pronunciation. But it's kinda like listening to the voice mail lady read you a story, hard to catch the differences in characters, and somehow beautifully read and monotonous too? THE LOTTERY WINNER (read by Edith Bunker!) was a joy to listen to; and The Anastasia Syndrome was a delightfully neat collection - but take a pass on this one.

Product sent is not product advertised
|
The item advertised is vegetarian capsules. The item that was sent to me was caplets which are solid tablets and are not vegetarian. I was told that this is not sent by Amazon, and therefore, they are not responsible for it. I looked on the Internet to see if I could find the vegetarian capsules elsewhere, and it appears that the company no longer offers them. Yet, Amazon continues to sell a product which doesn not exist. I returned the product for a refund.
