Her Life In Music: 1940-1966 (3CD)
:Album Description:60 classics on 3 CDs! originally released to coincide with her 80th birthday (she was born April 3rd, 1924). She was one of Hollywood's biggest stars of the 1950s and especially the 1960s. The Doris Day Show was a television success from 1968 to 1973. Because she has been in retirement and out of the public eye for the past two decades, many people forget that Doris Day was an altogether wonderful singer for such pop hits as `Secret Love' and her Oscar-winning `Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will ...

Complete Recordings of Sam Cooke with the Soul Stirrers
: :While the pop classics by the grit-and-honey singer reached a broader audience, Sam Cooke's formative music with the Soul Stirrers, recorded for the Specialty label, ranks with both his best and gospel's best. Only 19 when he was recruited in 1950 to replace the group's venerable R.H. Harris, Cooke developed the signature style he would carry into the popular arena while he was still singing church music. Disc 1 shows the raw passion of a vocalist who has yet to apply the polish for which he would become known. By disc ...

Troubadour: The Definitive Collection 1964-1976
:Album Description:Features 21 total tracks including 'Mellow Jellow', 'Jennifer Juniper', 'Colours', 'Riki Tiki Tavi', 'Hurdy Gurdy Man', 'There Is A Mountain', 'Atlantis' and more. Epic. 2005. :Heaven knows, the Scotsman born Donovan Leitch was ripe for ridicule, even when he was hitting the charts with regularity. He was the ultimate flower child, and his airier pronouncements made cynics want to tighten up those love beads around his neck. Listening to Troubadour, however, it's striking how versatile, melodic, and agreeable most of his material sounds decades after 'Mellow Yellow' has faded into ...

Beethoven: The Complete Symphonies and Piano Concertos
from: EMI Classics
: essential recording:Otto Klemperer's Beethoven is one of the towering achievements in the history of recordings. By today's standards, these performances are hopelessly old-fashioned: dark, heavy, and frequently very slow. But they are also the grandest, most unsentimental, most purposeful versions in the catalog. In addition, the relatively slow tempos (only in the fast movements--the slow ones are pretty swift) and forward wind balance permit more detail to be heard than in most original-instrument performances. At budget price and with the entire piano concerto cycle thrown in for good measure, this ...

Everything Under The Sun
: :Thank fans for this completist's dream: they petitioned the remaining members of the Sublime, a decade after Bradley Nowell's death by misadventure, to disgorge this collection of rarities, outtakes, and unreleased material. While a little overwhelming in its sheer volume, it deftly illustrates what a compelling shape-shifter Nowell was, even during his most discombobulated and boozy moments. Those unvarnished moments are captured here--taken from backstage parties, live radio shows, and their very first demos--along with some of the bands' more formed moments, whether sharing a stage with Gwen Stefani or being ...
