Breathless - #152 G., Kenny 1992 Arista This is "lite jazz". It sucks, there is little to be of interest
here, a few okay pop songs but there is no character as a whole to this very
long album. It might have been of
interest to me if the 5 or 6 better songs were mixed and most of the other
left out. There is no accounting for
taste because this album sold millions and millions, if it were shorter and
more limited it might rate a 3 or a 3+ Purchased: 6/21/93 -

PassionLast Temptation of Christ - #123 Gabriel.
Peter 1989 Geffen Originally bought the 1st copy in about 1994. Lost it somewhere in my travels and
organization. Bought my 2nd copy in
Hawaii in 1999. The movie was picked
and called blasphemous by Christian organizations country wide. I found the movie to be a good study about
the possible human conflicts that Christ could have had. The music reflects those possibilities and
is intriguing. Middle eastern sounds
make this a World Music Purchased: 10/8/99 -

Star is Born, A - #241 Garland,
Judy 1988 Columbia Fidelity is an issue here, what one might expect
for old recordings but boy does this talent show through. It would be a
better album if there is not the on stage chatter. How can you not like greats like "The Man That Got
Away"? Purchased: 12/1/90 -

Greatest Hits - #590 Gaynor,
Gloria MCPS A newer recording, not the originals. Is good to hear this music again but the
originals were so strong how can you really appreciate slightly dissimilar
re-recordings. It is Disco. Boy was it the rage until it crashed. Then detested, but now, in 1998 there is
a little interest in this beat. Purchased: 8/14/96 -

Gershwin Collection Porgy &
Bess In Concert- Girl Crazy Overture- #482 Gershwin 1987 Kem-Disc An economy composite. I don't really remember where I got this or how much I paid for
it. A classical collection of
Gershwin done in the style of the classicals. But who can miss the Jazz tones here. The vocals are operatic but the underlying music is Jazz Purchased: 1/1/90 - Rated: 4 |

Porgy and Bess - #59 Gershwin,
George 1989 EMI 1/1/88 A very good contemporary piece of American music and
a good opera but this recording has a range the makes it sound too much of
the stage performance that it is from.
It would be better if it were more of studio album technique. Still it is good to have the whole thing. Purchased: 11/30/90 -
