The Gonzo Tapes:The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Miscellaneous
by: Hunter S. Thompson

October 28, 2008
This item is very difficult to rate, as some will love it and most will not care for it. Do not buy this item unless you are a serious Gonzophile who is interested in Hunter's actual process in creating stories, as well as getting some insight into the realities of his life.

Do not buy it if you expect lots of gonzo bad craziness on the tapes: The Vegas portions are pretty pedestrian. Even when he is stoned, you are not experiencing the powerful internal experience; you are listening to it from the outside, and it can sound somewhat tired. You do get a couple interesting hints about how much was real and what really happened, but you have to listen carefully. This is Hunter Thompson the person, not Raoul Duke the personna.

October 25, 1990
This has been a favorite of mine for 20-30 yrs and her voice and her brothers arrangements on these Christmas classics are amazing to me and very traditional as how I like to see and hear the Christmas season.

This is a great video for kids ages 1 year and up. My 15 month old loves the music and characters and my 2 1/2 year old is still entertained. There is lots of music. We own many of the Sesame Street/Elmo's World DVD's and this one is one of their favorites.

Merry Christmas

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Miscellaneous
by: Johnny Mathis

August 24, 2004
I can recall listening to this CD as a child in my Grandparents living room. When I listen to the CD now, it brings back such great memories. Johnny Mathis has an amazing voice and I love how he sings O' Holy Night - it gives me chills everytime that I hear it. I highly recommend to anyone looking to add a Classic to their Holiday Assortment.

Songs of Angels - Christmas Hymns and Carols

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Miscellaneous
by: Robert Shaw, Robert Shaw Chamber Singers

October 18, 1994
This is one of my favorite choral Christmas CDs. "Songs of Angels" pretty much sums it up, so I don't know what more I can add, but I'll try.
First, let me say that I enjoy all types of Christmas music, with the exception of stuff like "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer," and songs of that ilk. I like secular and sacred, instrumental and vocal, soloists and choirs.
This collection, however, is--how can I put it?--transcendent! Besides the practically flawless blend of voices, the selection and variety of songs is amazing. There are many Christmas moods: joyous, reflective, humorous, poignant, mysterious, awestruck, loving. Every song seems to shimmer with a heart-filling brilliance that almost makes you catch your breath, it's so beautiful. ... Read More:

The Happiest Baby on the Block New "Super Soothing" Calming Sounds CD (now ... with 5 great sounds!)

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Miscellaneous
by: Dr. Harvey Karp

October 01, 2005
After I found The Whammy for Babies: Vacuum Cleaner Sounds to Soothe Colic and Fussiness which helps to relieve colic, I was on the lookout for more CDs with which to help soothe my baby. I found this one and really like it. Where it doesn't necessarily help ebb the colic like the other, it does soothe, so using it in the car or whereever was the thing for us. A recommend.

Bill Cosby Is a Very Funny Fellow Right!

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Miscellaneous
by: Bill Cosby

January 24, 1995
Enjoyed the content but a bit disappointed. The original was a 33 1/3 RPM Recording that had a lot more content. I judge this CD to only contain about one-half of what was on the recording.
