Advantages: Fleming is sublime, well sung throughout Disadvantages: Live recording is slightly noticeable in places
Despite being one of the most prolific composers of opera and very successful in his own time, Handel operas have remained largely neglected in the operatic repertoire until fairly recently with the Handel revival that began in the '60s. Because of this, if you're looking for recordings of Handel operas there are often not too many to choose from and to my knowledge there are only 3 recordings available of Alcina: one with Joan Sutherland in the title role, one with Renee Fleming, and one with Arleen Auger. I am eagerly awaiting the release this month of another recording with Joyce DiDonato in the title role - possibly an unorthodox choice as a mezzo soprano, but one of my favourite singers.
Alcina tells the story of a sorceress (Alcina herself) who seduces every man who dares to set foot on her island. However, Alcina is fickle ...

Advantages: Contains 15 great tracks Disadvantages: None
'The Best of Me' by Bryan Adams
I purchased my Bryan Adams The Best of Me album about 8 months ago. This album contains great songs.
The Tracks
1. The Best Of Me
'When you want it, when you need it, you'll always get the best of me.'
This opening track is nice with its great melody, good rendition of acoustic guitar and Bryan's husky voice.
2. Can't Stop This Thing We Started
'I aint superman and I can't fly, but if you wanna stop me baby , don't even try.'
This track comes in rock style and Adams delivers it with unique style as he goes speechy and sexy with this song.
3 . I'm Ready
'I'm ready to love you, I'm ready to hold you.'
This is a very romantic mellow song. Bryan goes in slow tempo with this track with brilliant lyrics.
4. Summer of '69
'And if I had the choice, yeah, I'd always ...
Advantages: Easily readable, light, non-intellectual, aimed at the more mature woman Disadvantages: A tad old fashioned, but perhaps I am too?
Yes, I?ll admit it! I?ve been reading rather a lot of magazines lately. Mainly by virtue of the fact that I went to Scotland for a week in August and travelled by train. It?s a five hour journey and whilst I can quite easily get my head stuck into a good book for such a duration, I do find that the density of the text combined with the motion of the train, makes me feel sick after a while. So, magazines, with their colours and layouts make a good alternative. That?s my excuse anyway.
One of the magazines that I picked up was ?best?. Whilst doing a little research for this review, I was surprised to discover that this publication has been around since 1987. Apparently, it is aimed at female readers between the ages of 25-55, but has a median reader age of 40. Heh, that?s me! Certainly, as I flicked through it I was pleasantly ...
