How Lovely Is Christmas

Search: There there.
by: Bing Crosby, Mitch Miller, Golden Orchestra

Release Date September 14, 1999
I actually still have the LP...which I ended up having to record to a cassette. I loved it all those years ago, and now the kid loves it along with the grand nieces/nephew love it too.

It's a bit of fluff, fantasy, and the music with the story-telling is classic Bing, as comfy as snuggled up near the fireplace by the tree with him and his pipe entertaining all of us.

I only wish we could get a CD format for the recording.

Bing Crosby's White Christmas

Search: There there.
by: Bing Crosby

Release Date July 19, 2005
This wonderful 2-CD set gives you, first: A marvelous story and song transporting the listener back to share the joys of a boy's Christmas, both imagined and real, in frontier America. My mother, who is now gone, used to play this album endlessly in her festive home at Christmas, and so now I've been able to re-connect to my own deep tradition in a very special way and share with young Jethro the joys of his Christmas once again! Second: On the other CD is just Bing Crosby's matchless singing of all of our Christmas favorites, headlined by his immortal, smooth and rich "White Christmas". Taken altogether, this is truly a Christmas album for the ages!

Richard Strauss: "Der Rosenkavalier" / 1949 Salzburg Festival / Reining, Novotna, Güden, Vienna Phil., Szell

Search: There there.
by: R. Strauss, Reining, Novotna, Szell

Release Date November 26, 2002
I'm currently listening to this recording on XM Satellite Radio, and I'm very much impressed. For me, Rosenkavalier is best when it so strongly counterbalances Strauss's love of dissonance and density with pure lyricism. I love the old Lehmann/Schumann recording, except for the lack of depth in recordings from that period, and a tendency towards thinness in the soprano singing--a kind of over-delicate, girlish quality.

Perhaps the sound quality of this live recording is not up to snuff with contemporary studio recordings, but it's remarkably clear and bright (in this digital radio offering).

And the big surprise for me is the exquisitely apt, dancingly rhythmic style Szell brings to the whole thing.

HALLOWEEN BASH

Search: There there.
by: Various Artists

Release Date September 15, 2000
Halloween Bash was great fun for my younger children. They especially liked the 'Boogie Man Blues' and enjoyed dancing to the 'Skeleton Shuffle'. The only disappointment for me was that it really didn't appeal to my older boys. They are 10 y.o. and up. For them the tunes and lyrics were too juvenile.

Jackass: The Music, Vol. 1

Search: There there.
by: Original Soundtrack

Release Date January 01, 2002
This is a good soundtrack. Most of the songs rock and my personal favorite is CKY - Flesh Into Gear. Some other artists on this soundtrack include Slayer, Sahara Hotnights, The Rezillos, Smutpeddlers, Ramones and more. This soundtrack features most of the music featured in the Jackass movie. And another plus about this soundtrack is that it comes with a bonus DVD with music videos (including an all new Partyboy video), trailers, tv spots and swag. If you liked the music in the movie, then get it.
