Kelly Price

the product quality was excellent, I would have liked to be able to listen to the content clip before buying

While reading Oliver Sack's book, Musicophilia, about the neuroscience of music illustrated through cases of neurological disability that knocked out areas of the brain involved in music perception and creation, I learned that children listening to Mozart developed specific regions of the brain and improve their mathematics scores. I decided that my 5 month old grandson's developing brain would benefit from listening to Mozart. I chose this collection of Mozart's works and was not disappointed with the quality of the music, though my grandson is now six months old and not yet doing calculus.

You get Mozart's best works in 2 CD. The sound is flawless to the common ear. Get it! if you love Mozart

I am not much into classical music.. Read about Mozart and wanted to make sure I listen to one of the all time classics.

Though I may not be qualified enough to review a classic, On a whole it was a pleasant experience for me and a good add on to my car, especially when alone.. The quality of the CD content was good too..!!

4/5

Very talented composer! I like Mozart! It would be nicer if the CD had more on Marriage of Figaro. I love opera!

1. Purchased this older and used CD to replace my original that somehow came up missing. Arrived quickly, well packaged and the music quality is FLAWLESS.

This album is smooth like butter. Kelly has annointed voice. Her compositions and beautiful ranges in her voice are heaven scent. Anyone would love this album. I had it for a while before I actually listened to it. That was a mistake. This a timeless musical piece. I should have known buy the cuts I have heard from her on the radio that this album would the _hit! How could she go wrong with a wonderful producer like Ronald Isley. Try this album you want be dissapointed unless you don't soul stirring music that is sweet and soothing.

SECRET LOVE
DON'T SAY GOODBYE
SOUL OF A WOMAN
ARE VERY VERY GOOD SONGS KELLY IS THE BEST BUT MIRROR MIRROR IS THE BEST ALBUM SHE EVER MADE IN HER CAREER

Kellp Price Soul of a Woman is a wounderful cd i suggest this cd for anyone thats been having problems with your man or your girlfriend cheating with eachother this is the cd for you

Kelly has a very big voice but no idea how to use it to maximum advantage. If she'd sung half the notes she sings on this cd it would have been too many - after one listening I'm completely melismatized. People think Mariah Carey defines over-singing. Not any more. Welcome to the new undisputed world champion.

I remember this album when I was 13. I love this album. This album is just as good as the debut album of 1998. This album speaks directly to women. The songs are about heartbreak, romance, conflicted love and the two songs are dedicated to her mother, late mother-in-law, and her kids. This album explores the difficulty of being a mother in a fast-paced business where family problems are not as important as video shotts and charts placement. This album has been certified Platinum. Remember, this was 2000.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE ALBUM BY KELLY PRICE SHE IS THE BOMB THIS ALBUM IS THE BOMB FOR SURE

Better than the "R&B" of today. Kelly makes a solid singer/songwriter., September 15, 2007

There is definitely some material here worth checking out:

You Should've Told Me, At Least (The Little Things), She Wants You, National Anthem (Interlude) (My favorite, should've been a full song!), The Lullaby, All I Want Is You, As We Lay and Love Sets You Free.

Yes, that's almost the entire CD, but this CD isn't without its faults.

Good Love is very generic and almost unmentionable. 3 Strikes is catchy, but nothing to brag about and Like You Do Feat. Meth brings variety, but I wouldn't shed a tear, had it have been left off the album entirely. And as much as I Know Who Holds Tomorrow features nice and powerful vocals, I disagree with the editor's review, and say it is definitely overshadowed by other songs.

Overall, a good release, but some songs weren't necessary.

If you're an R&B fan, you may like this.

Kelly Price, is without a doubt one of the BEST R&B singers.This album Mirror Mirror was my favorite album from her.The album highlights for me are:

1) You Should Have Told Me (Great ab-libs)
2) Interlude/She Wants You (Also great ab-libs and background vocals)
3) Lullaby (Dedicated to her kids,so lovely)
4) All I Want Is You (Whoa!This song is crazy!At the end it leaves you like what happens next?)
5) As We Lay (Best remake)
6) Love Will Set You Free (Powerful singers, powerful vocals,great message)

I recieved this CD when it first came out.Loved it, and now I still love it today.Please add this to your collection.

As for me - "Mirror Mirror" is the best r'n'b album I ever heard.I just love her voice and her songs and think she is the best singer for the last few years.I wish her good luck and new beautiful songs.

Four of the songs on this CD (Oklahoma, Music of the Night, Cabaret, and All That Jazz) were on the earlier Ultimate Broadway. Of all the shows that have been on Broadway over the past 70+ years, including the ones that are currently running, there is no excuse for repeats!

I believe that the show selection for this CD was excellent. However the song selection and song order were not. Why pick "Your Daddy's Son" from Ragtime when you can have the amazing and fantastic "Prologue" from the same show. Also I believe that a mistake was made by slecting "I Don Quixote" from Man of La Mancha instead of the much more listenable "Impossible Dream." Also the overture from Gypsy is not the proper song to start out a CD. Perhaps the "Overture" from The Phantom of the Opera.

This is however an excellent example of showtunes for inexperienced members of the theatrical world.

The best of Broadway? Sure, if you consider the best of Broadway only those songs taken only from RCA Victor cast recordings. Expect the expected: Tracks from "Ragtime," "Chicago," "42nd Street" and "Man of La Mancha," sung by the likes of Audra
McDonald, Bebe Neuwirth, Jerry Orbach and Brian Stokes Mitchell. Including a live recording of Barbara Cook warbling "Losing My Mind" from her "Mostly Sondheim" CD isn't exactly kosher. But then again, neither is this gimmick-riddled release. Curtain up?
Half-way, maybe. Light the lights? Dim them, please.

I have waited for a long time for Kelly Price to release another CD... This gospel CD was well worth the wait.. She is excellent as usual and she adds surprise guess artists that are out of this world! Well done Kelly...

I consider this particular cd to be her best. She shows why she belongs with the gospel greats.

I am currently going through some emotional trials and tribulations in my life right now. I went to the Father for support by focusing on the Word of God. But in addition to this, Kelly's CD has given me the inspiration I need through her lyrics to help me began the healing of my broken spirit. I highly recommend this CD and may the good Lord bless her.!

This is a great album, from the first track to the last. Kelly Price is supremely talented, and I wish I'd known about it when it came out last year. She is one of the few artists whose albums I will buy before hearing a single track - just off of the strength of her previous material. Keep the good music coming, Kelly!

I LOVE THIS CD. KELLY IS OFF THE CHAIN ON THIS CD. MY FAVORITES ARE #2,3,4,6,7,9,10,11. # 1 AND 8 ARE COOL BUT THE REST OF THEM ARE OFF THE CHAIN. SHE IS AN INSPIRATION TO ME AND #3 TELLS MY STORY. THANK YOU KELLY AND I PRAY THAT GOD CONTINUES TO BLESS YOU TO MAKE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC AND SOUL STIRRING SONGS.
THIS IS A GREAT CD!! PLEASE PURCHASE ONE AND PRAISE GOD ON #4!!!!

great cd alternative from traditional christmas music. it stayed in my cd changer the whole month of december great seller fast delivery thank you

I didn't receive the cd that I order. I only received a promotional sampler which noted on the cd that it was not for sale. ....and it took 4 weeks for me to received a disk that I didn't order. I am completely unhappy with this purchase.

This CD is absolutely Amazing! I purchased the CD a few years ago and have enjoyed every track, especially Ava Maria. I played my CD constantly and finally it just skipped Xmas 07...so here I am buying another one for Xmas 08! In short - I love this CD!!!

This is a CD that I feel will be worth playing for more Christmases to come. Every song is touching and very moving. The soul stirring Silent Night all the way to Ave Maria. Wonderful Kelly keep singing and you will always get my money.

Kelly Price, with this Christmas album, showed once again that she can sing over any track given to her. Unfortunately, the same CANNOT be said for her guest stars. Though Mary Mary and Winona Judd turn in great performances on "Mary's Song" and "In Love At Christmas" respectively, her family on the title track show that they aren't the best singers in the world. This is especially true when Kelly's kids sing on "If I Lose Christmas", which made me lose my appetite. A rule of thumb: If your kids can't really sing, don't put them on the album!

But I still can't front on the great performances that Kelly turns in, and as with most R&B singers, she sounds better singing gospel like on "Christmas Medley", "Go Tell It on the Mountain" and "Ave Maria". If you love Kelly's voice and can't stand her singing about people not accepting her weight size or about heartache, then this album is a good escape from her usual fare.

This revival is not as good as the original but the opening is SUPER> The overture, hard rock, and cheer are a great opening for the show. We used this when we did Rocky last year. The audience LOVED it.

This was the first Rocky Horror album I've ever listened to besides the movie soundtrack. Despite the lack of Joan Jett as Columbia and the 2nd Usherette, this album is sweet. Daphne-Rubin Vega is perfect as Magenta. And Tom Hewlett 's interpretation as Frank N. Furter is just in sync with the character. But he's still no Tim Curry. And the rest of the cast is sublime. And with Dick Cavett as the Criminologist and famed lesbian comedienne Lea DeLaria as both Eddie and Dr. Scott is just excellent.

I thought that this was gonna be just another edition of the Rocky Horror Show.But boy was I wrong.I loved it they really modernized and gave it more of a Rock flavor than in the original play which was more pop.I just loved how they had the Overture and Space shipa partof the cd.They really recreated great for broadway.When i heard that broadway was doing Then Rocky Horror Show I didn't know what to think.Because Rocky Horror had been an off-broadway show for many years.The thought of it being onBroadway was just amazing Because people back in the 70's and 80's always thought that The Rocky Horror Show was much too trashy to be put on Broadway.Because you always think about broadway plays as being classy and eligent.They didn't want a play about Sex and Horror and Gay Transvestites.But this was just a head turner.I loved it.It's definitely 5 stars.The cd quality was great.It was so professionally done and it was great.I think any RHS Fan will love it.This was no candyman!

This 2000 Broadway revival of the cult classic THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW boasts a completely re-vamped orchestration of Richard O'Brien's score. This is certainly the most rock-fused version of these songs to date, and right from the "Overture" the listener can assume this. Many may not be able to accept this harder, bolder score and I myself am a bit skeptical, considering the more piano-driven and sci-fi sounding orchestrations of the film soundtrack or Roxy cast recording. However, it is so interesting to hear these songs done like this that I cannot help but enjoy it. The performances are half-and-half. Daphne Rubin-Vega belts out the opening number in that great gravelly voice she has, and Raul Esparzza sends chills down my spine every time I hear his two great solo moments ("The darkness must flow down the river...." and "Frank 'N' Furter, it's all over..."). Sebastian LaCause is amazing as Rocky, as thankless a part that is. Eddie and Dr. Scott being portrayed by a woman (Lea DeLaria) is one of the strangest casting decisions ever and is too distracting to be able to even listen to her (his? I don't know!!!) songs: "Hot Patootie" and "Eddie's Teddy." Tom Hewitt does his best as Frank 'N' Furter, but the character was so well defined by Tim Curry in the film (one of the most underrated performances ever) that one can't help but ignore him. I'd say that this recording is something every ROCKY HORROR fan should listen to; it just all depends on whether you like the new or original orchestrations.

Rocky Horror is an American institution. It's indelible, unforgettable, and entirely unique. But without the audience participation, the show is revealed - it's simply not very good. It's a passable (if dated) parody of '50s B-movies with a transvestite main character and some halfway decent songs. The show lives with and dies without an audience. The lyrics, the characters - nothing is half as fun without the audience throwing and shouting and bantering right along.

That said, this is a VERY good recording of what's there. Tom Hewitt does as good a job as anyone trying to fill Tim Curry's sequined heels, and brings some nice twists to the table instead of going the Curry-imitation route. Raul Esparza as Riff-Raff is electric - his rendition of "Time Warp" is unlike anything else you're likely to hear on a cast recording. He blasts it right into outer space, screaming like the world's going to end. Daphne Rubin-Vega is plenty of fun as Columbia, giving a nicely sinuous and raw-edged sexiness to the role. The orchestra gives their all to the new arrangements, and they sound crystal clear.

It's definitely the best recording of the show available, even sans Tim Curry.

kelly price is so amazin her voice is truly a gift from GOD!4 of my favorite songs from this cd are:as we lay,friend of mine,u should have told me,and he propsed this cd is a great cd and and im about to order it right now u all should do the same.KELLY PRICE U ARE SO AMAZIN!

Product arrived very promptly and it arrived in the condition promised. I LOVE IT!

Kelly Price delivers and extremely strong R&B release that was unfortunately looked over.

I thought this was a solid contemporary R&B album. I think this disc contains her most explosive performances, and her conviction is apparent. I think that this cd is markedly 'lighter' in terms of subject matter and ambience because she may have been looking for a more 'fun' album. I think the lighter mood works. I really think she should try gospel, though, her best performances "You Brought the Sunshine" and "God's Favor"(which isn't on this album) seem to be fueled by religious fervor.

I feel like kelly is my sister of soul. She make the music connect with her black sisters. To feel that connection with a person you don't even know it is wonderful. If you can make that connection with your fans well you are making money.

Kelly Prices latest effort is a prime display of a Superior voice with inferior material. First of all Kelly Price should not be singing pop songs or anything close. She is one of the very few singers around today that has enormous talent however that talent barely presented itself in a long album of "quiet" singing and annoying pop tunes. This is a singer with the capability (as weve seen in the past) to tear the house down and take it to church with her powerful, unfaltering vocals. However she does that on only one, yes one, of the song son this album and that song is "He Proposed" which in my opinion is the only song on the album worth listening to. Im sorry Kelly I wish i could have revied this better but please stick to relying on ur vocal ability and not catchy tunes to sell ur albums. From a truly dissapointed fan.

This CD has a great selection of Mozart for fans, or people who have heard the melodies but haven't placed the composer with them. It includes Piano Concerto 21 II andante, Jupiter Symphony Finale, the famous Clarinet Concerto, wich is incredibly brilliant, and Rondo Alla Turca, a very smartly written sonata. It also has probably the most famous classical piece ever, Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, The most famous Opera, Le Nozzie Di Figaro, and the very famous Piano Sonata 15 in C Major, "Sonata Facile".
Not only does this CD set have a good selection it is all crisp and cleanly played. I particualry enjoy the Jupiter Finale, which is so cleanly played I felt I was watching it live. I suggest buying this wonderful set for your Mozart collection.

Although the perfect summary to Mozart needs many more than 2 CDs, this set is like a summary of a summary of one of the greatest composers to ever live (probably the best). Within these two CDs are all the Mozart melodies that you know along with melodies you know you knew, but didn't know Mozart had written. It's a great introduction to the music of Mozart as well as a great addition to a collector's collection. This set offers some snippets from works that have been out of the catalog for a number of years. The playing and sound on the two CDs is consistently high and excellent. The performers are great. In effect, the CD is a great compilation. Decca really sets out to make these "Greatest Show" albums live up to their names (i.e. The Greatest Mozart Show on Earth).
