Customer Review: Guiness vs. Gielgud
I meant to get the version narrated by Sir John Gielgud not Sir Alec Guiness, but this version of Peter and the Wolf is ok. I'm not sure why the wolf must be "saved" and taken to the zoo however; I much prefer the original story, as Gielgud tells it (if I'm not mistaken). Gielgud seems to have better timing when telling the story than Guiness and the orchestra sounds zippier, for lack of a better classical term. Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time tracking down the Gielgud version on Amazon.
Customer Review: Classics For Children/Fielder,Boston Pops
I have been searching for this for YEARS! My Mom got this for me when I was a child(on 8-track!)under a different title and with a different cover. I am a musician and this collection was definitely a big influence on me...I don't think my Mom knew what good she was doing when she got this for me! And I never realized until now that it was Sir Alec Guiness on this album! I am a big Star Wars fan, and this collection really brings things full circle for me! I'm buying this right now! This is a great way to introduce children to music other than Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears. THANK YOU, Amazon, for having this treasured memory in stock!

Classic Bluegrass Banjo Solos


Classic Bluegrass Banjo Solos
Tony Trischka teaches eleven classic pieces that are prime examples of banjo playing at its best. You'll learn them, note-for-note, just as they were played by some of the greatest players in the history of the instrument. By learning these tunes you'll not only expand your repertoire, but in the process will also become more flexible in your ability to mix up various rolls, play in several keys without a capo and move more freely around the neck.

Tony, who is widely known as one of the world's top contemporary banjo players as well as a historian of banjo lore, performs each tune with the help of John McGann on guitar. He then slows it down, going over the tricky spots and explaining all the right and left hand techniques you'll need to play it.

Here are the solos you'll learn: John Henry (Earl Scruggs), Sitting on Top of the World (Alan Shelton), Gold Rush (Vic Jordan), Bye Bye Blues (Alan Shelton), Dixie Breakdown (Don Reno), Old Home Place (J. D. Crowe), Salt Creek (Bill Keith), Casey Jones (Bobby Thompson), Clinch Mountain Backstep (Ralph Stanley), Little Maggie (Bill Emerson), Doug's Tune (Doug Dillard).

Customer Review: Basic education
I have viewed this whole DVD, along with the "special features" section. The description provided above is not quite accurate. First, this DVD is hosted by Keith Wyatt, who is so far my favorite video guitar teacher. This makes the DVD great in that aspect. Next, the DVD is a guide into the various types of electric guitars and amplifiers. Keith provides a solid overview and a little history to the guitars, who used what ones and what amplifiers were used with what guitars. He does a good job comparing the differences. Third, this is NOT an instructional DVD as far as actually playing the guitar (which I thought it would be). Regardless, I feel for the novice guitarist this is a great DVD to understand the differences in guitars and amps. Keith details the history and why some chose "this one" over "that one". There are some special features that are neat, like a short clip of BB King and how you create distortion from an amplifier. All in all this was fun and informative to watch. It probably only takes one viewing to get the just of everything. After that you should be able to figure everything out on your own. I like this DVD and think everyone should take a gander. To be a "true" guitarist you need more than effects pedals. This DVD will give you the insight to help you.

Customer Review: Not really Christmas
These movies aren't all really Christmas but they are a good watch and a fair price.
Customer Review: Great Movies with Superb Extras on all but the Singing Nun
This is a great dvd collection with plenty of extras. For me the extras add so much to a movie. Since all of these movies have been around for a while I just want to make some comments about the extras. Boys Town Unlike a previous reviewer my copy of Boys Town came with some great extras. The disk is double sided with the one side having Boys Town and the second including the less successful sequel Men of Boys Town also starring Mickey Rooney and Spencer Tracy. Other features include the featurette "The City of Little Men" which is a 10:56 long and includes Father Flanagan. "Girls and Boys Town" is a 2:07 look at the modern Boys and Girls Town. There is also and excerpt from "Good News of 1939" which is a 16:42 long radio broadcast with Tracy and Rooney in excerpts from the movie. This is sound only with no video. Also included are theatrical trailers from both movies. Christmas in Connecticut This includes a superb Oscar winning short called "Star in the Night" which is 21:24 long. It is a modern story about a man and his pregnant wife who stop at an inn on Christmas evening only to find that it is full. Included in the movie, set in the southwest of the United States, are three wise cowboys attracted to a star at a gasoline station at the inn. It is a great story and highly recommended. Also included is a theatrical trailer for the movie. A Christmas Carol This includes a number of great extras aside from the theatrical trailer. It includes "Jackie Cooper's Christmas Party" a 9:00 long featurette in which Jackie Cooper convinces the Metro Goldwyn Mayer studio to have a Christmas party for his football team and the servers include some well known stars of the time. There is a brief 1:41 film of Judy Garland singing "Silent Night" in front of a church choir. Finally there is an Oscar nominated cartoon called "Peace on Earth" which 8:47 long. This is the one feature I was troubled about. It is a cartoon that takes place after mankind has destroyed itself in a World War and the animals are the only ones left on the earth to sing holiday songs. While it makes a good statement about the dangers of war it is something that may trouble youngsters. Singing Nun Finally, there is the Singing Nun which includes a theatrical trailer. Importantly the movie does not include any chapters so if you want to skip to Debbie Reynolds singing Dominique you have to fast forward or use what ever chapter feature you have on your dvd player. This is the only disappointment in this great set of movies. The movie is fine but I like chapters on my dvd's. This is a great set that is well worth the price. It is a treasured part of my Christmas movie collection.

Django,1966,a Sergio Corbucci film,starring,Franco Nero, delivers all the spaghetti western goods, actually banned in several countries proceeding after the films debut for it's extreme violence.
