Alison Krauss & Union Station - Live

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Live Albums
by: Alison Krauss & Union Station

November 05, 2002
I had no idea when I purchased Alison Krauss & Union Station in concert that I would have to fight to keep the CD. Everyone that has heard it loves it and wants to borrow it. I now have to keep it under lock & key. Can't wait to get more of this group. They are simply the best ever.

Absolutely wonderful. We have the original vinyl, one of the best albums of its time, and decided to get the CD. Sound quality is great, and feels as if you're hearing it live. Takes me back to the days....A must have for all Neil Diamond fans.

Live: 1975-85 (3CD)

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Live Albums
by: Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band

October 14, 1997
Live albums. Some artists shine. The live recordings show why they are so popular when they hit the road. Others should run screaming when their record label or their manager suggests a live project! Springsteen is one of the former. He and his band have always had a reputation as a killer live act. Live 1975-1985 shows that their reputation is well deserved.

By the time these cds were released just before Xmas, 1986, Springsteen had made seven records, including one double. This is sixteen sides of music. Each was a classic. There are about forty songs on this live collection. If you subtract five non-Springsteen songs we are left with thirty-five live songs. That would be about two songs for each LP side! Thus, these three discs ... Read More:

Josh Groban In Concert (with Bonus DVD)

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Live Albums
by: Walter Afanasieff, Albert / Sharron, Marti Hammond, David / Sager, Carole Bayer Foster, John Williams, Don MacLean, Johann Sebastian Bach, Walter / Crokaert, Lara Afanasieff, Adolphe Adam, Daniel Ezralow, Angie Stone, Lili Haydn, David Foster

This DVD provides a glimpse of Josh Groban when he was 21 or 22 years old, a world of difference from him today. His music is sweet and tender, as is his demeanor. A few differences exist in the music shown on this DVD when compared with his CD that came out in 2001; otherwise they are the same. My earlier comment isn't meant to detract from Josh today; he has evolved as stardom has made him a truly bigtime item in the firmament. But if you want to see him when he was a relatively fresh face, you shouldn't miss this album.

Les Miserables 10th Anniversary Concert

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Live Albums
by: Various Artists

June 01, 2004
I absolutely love this musical more than life itself! I hope to some day fulfill my dream of seeing it on Broadway, but it would of course have to come back, but I'd settle for London or Shea's (my local theater) if it doesn't happen.
The first Les Mis song I ever heard came from this CD, "Master of House" which is one of my favorites. Alun Armstrong sings the best version of it on here. I also love Colm Wilkinson, who will always be THE original Valjean. Michael Ball and Judy Juhn do an awesome duet of "A Heart Full of Love," and he does an amazing solo of "Empty Chairs." And Lea Salonga last but not least, is great as Eponine. Her and Ball do a very uplifting, but very sad version of "A Little Fall of Rain," the second Les Mis song I ever ... Read More:

Mirrorball

June 15, 1999
I remember the sound almost a decade ago. The beauty of her voice, her heart-wrenching lyrics. She was the diva at the turn of the century! She is still the model for pop/rock/folk singer-songwriters today. This album is simply stunning.

Delaney & Bonnie On Tour With Eric Clapton

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Live Albums
by: Delaney & Bonnie & Friends

May 18, 1989
With a smorgasbord of backup musicians from both the soul and rock fields and a thunderously approving audience, Delaney and Bonnie create a high-energy, electrifying, live event whose recording the listener will blast and imagine himself there. With the funky opening licks of "Things Get Better," you know you're in for an exuberant ride. In between the breakneck-speed soul-rockers "I Don't Want to Discuss It" and "Where There's a Will, There's a Way," Bonnie sings her heart out on the slow churner "That's What My Man is For" The desperately jubilant road song "Comin' Home" closes the set, and the audience is bellowing. Delaney and Bonnie close out with an electrifying medley of Little Richard covers.

This, my friends, is a perfect example of why ... Read More:

An Evening With John Denver (2CD)

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Live Albums
by: John Denver

March 20, 2001
I had been looking for this for years. I had this as a set of vinyl in the 80s. Though I have the Rocky Mountain Collection and many of the songs are the same, the concert performances are so much better. The seller provided it as promised and well within the shipment window promised.
