The Music of Johnny Mathis - A Personal Collection (Repackaged)
: :Mathis was among the singers who, in the '60s and '70s, churned out an album every few months--often made up largely of the same recent chart hits his peers (Andy Williams, Jerry Vale) were covering. Despite the presence of 'Feelings,' however, this four-CD box is low on chaff and high on the wispy romanticism of hits such as 'Chances Are,' 'Misty,' and 'It's Not for Me to Say.' --Rickey Wright

Lady Day: The Master Takes and Singles
:Album Description:Billie Holiday's story is so huge, her artistry so vast, and her impact so incalculable, that even attempting to corral a representative sampling of it within a single collection of recordings is an overwhelming, perhaps foolhardy task. Many have tried, of course, and literally hundreds of options of varying quality and legitimacy, scattered across dozens of labels, are available to the consumer. Neophytes, or those not willing to commit to a gargantuan listening session, can settle for any number of single- or double-CD best-ofs that adequately present Holiday's most important, ...

Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Duke Ellington Songbook
: essential recording:While legends such as Billie Holiday and Count Basie made their greatest impact with visceral, blues-soaked statements, Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington succeeded by lending their work unmatched grace and precision. This is a roundabout way of saying that no one is better suited to interpret the Duke than Ella, and the evidence is contained within these three CDs. Discs 1 and 3, recorded in June 1957, feature the support of the full Ellington band and are a complete joy, from Fitzgerald's terrific scat vocal on 'Rockin' in Rhythm' ...

Schoolhouse Rock! (1973 TV Series)
: :It's hard to overestimate the effect Schoolhouse Rock had on anyone who was a child between 1973 and 1985. Forty-one three-minute educational cartoons set to original songs, they were the original music videos, and they taught countless kids the difference between adjectives ('Unpack Your Adjectives') and adverbs ('Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, Get Your Adverbs Here'), how to multiply ('Three Is a Magic Number'), basic principles of science ('Do the Circulation,' 'Interplanet Janet'), and American civics ('I'm Just a Bill,' 'The Preamble'). All of the original songs are here, plus four Money Rock ...
