Bernstein's vintage 1960 treatment of this classic kids' piece is magically engaging. Lenny narrates it himself, and draws a radiant performance from the Philharmonic. --Ted Libbey

Advantages: Large variety of music Disadvantages: none
...I bought this bos set of 5 CDs from Asda for £5, what a bargain. I'm not usually a classical music fan, but it is great as backbround music for the class of children I teach, plus provides lots of inspiration for Art and Drama.
The set contains 5 CDs. The first is classical favourites, most people will know a few from this disk which has 16 tracks. The 2nd disk is Classical Chillout and is all music that is fairly slow, soft and relaxing. This also has 16 tracks. The 3rd disk is Opera favourites, 16 of them. The 4th has only 11 tracks of Romantic classics, and the 5th has 16 tracks again titled tracks from the movies. I was very surprised to see music such as Pirates of the Caribbean and Lord of the Rings on this album!
So there are a total of 75 tracks to listen to, which I have done all in a row so I cant say what the total...

Advantages: Its good to hear the legend Little Roy again Disadvantages: There should be more of his work produced
...We all like Marley but Little Roy is a rootsman who not only was recording when Bob was around but he is a true singing and songwriting genius whose work deserves more attention. Responsible for some of the classics in roots reggae like Tribal War and Prophesy , this album also features an updated version of his massive hit Bongo Nyah. With tracks like Memebership Card and Bomazee, we are taken back to the golden age of reggae and it is humbling to know that at 50 plus , Little Roy is still capable of such inspiring and significant music. A classic and if you want to challenge your friends to move beyond Bob Marley, Little Roy's latest album is a good start....

Advantages: A classic Disadvantages: Everyone seems to hate Oasis now!!
...This is the first, and best. It's original, it's raw, it's fantastic!!
The original lineup (original from when they started recording before anyone decides to be pedantic) of Liam, Noel, Bonehead, Guigsy and Tony McCarroll rock!! This album has everything an indie/rock album needs- gee-tars, snarly vox from Liam and fantastic songs. I know a lot of people slagged off Oasis after Be Here Now, maybe they have gone downhill. But this album remains a modern classic. Songs like Rock N Roll Star, Shakermaker, Live Forever and Cigarrettes and Alcohol rock, and there's even a mellower ballad to finish it off: Married With Children which is funny and cute all in one, bless!!
This album is a classic and if you need this review to tell you that-why?!! Just go and get it, dammit!!!...
