Music For Meditation Vol 2

Music for Meditation

Advantages: A good introduction to sacred music
Disadvantages: A rather niche album on which those into the genre will find nothing new

cheaper discs. I've always found Naxos to be reliable and, indeed, some of my favourite versions of classical pieces can be found on this label. One thing to note, if you're not overly familiar with classical music, is that the recording can make all the difference. The variation in interpretation of the musical score can be as varied as thinking of all the cover-versions of popular songs - no two are ever the same. Requiem is subtitled "music for Reflection and Meditation". It takes various well known settings of the requiem mass, together with a couple of other fitting pieces and puts them together in one place. If one is so minded, one should note that this album is NOT a requiem mass. The pieces don't follow in the right order but, having said that, to the knowledgeable, the whole album stands on its own as a good religious set ...

Oral Fixation Vol II

Advantages: Good composition in lyrics
Disadvantages: Shakira's voice

and the Time). On this album has the featuring of Carlos Santana and Gustavo Cerati ( a principal guitarist of Eighties Argentinian Rock Group Soda Stereo). This album aren't sounded so much in Lima's radios than "Fijacion Oral Vol II" on my own, perhaps the foreign language and the same music style as Fijacion Oral. This album contains this song: 1-How do you do 2-Don't Bother 3-Illrgal 4-The day and the time 5-Animal City 6-Dreams for plans 7-Hey you 8- Your embarace 9- Costume makes the crown 10 Something (It is not the Beatles' song) 11-Timor ---------- This album has another reedit where she add another song " Hips don't like" that was recorded in English and Spanish that probably are the best song of this redit album with diffrent version in Latin America, anther for Europe, another to Spain an UK and another to Japan ...

Kill Bill Vol. 2 - can it cut it?

Advantages: Amazing music, sharp script
Disadvantages: Last third drags on a bit

Kill Bill Vol. 2 is the concluding installment of the Kill Bill saga. In this one the Bride (Uma Thurman) continues her vengeance against her ex-boss, Bill, and the two remaining members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad; his younger brother Budd, and Bill's latest flame Elle. The first one had more of an eastern feel, this one is more like a western. So it's dusty, dirty and sweaty. Again Tarantino enlists the help of Ennio Morricone, the man who can take an ordinary western and make it legendary. His music is masterful, the lone trumpets in his compositions invoking a sense of isolation and the wild west, which is exactly the tone this film needs. The acting is good again, helped by a sharp script. The action scenes are fewer and far between than the first one but equally as impressive. Again during the fight scenes ...
