Live In Gdansk (3CD & 2DVD)

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: David Gilmour

September 22, 2008
I can only echoe the glowing reviews of this title but a note of caution. The small lettering on the package reveals that the DVD content features strobe lighting effects. Such effects can adversely affect those with certain neurological conditions.

Riot

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Paramore

June 25, 2007
I first heard about Paramore eariler on this year, my friend told me to listen to Until Tomorrow and I fell in love with the band. Hayley is an awesome singer and Riot! is now one of my favourite albums. CrushCrushCrush and That's What You Get have to be two of the best songs on the album and I think everyone should get it lol....god I ramble....

The Wall: Remastered

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Pink Floyd

October 10, 1994
I don't really know what to say about this, seeing that it's the first Pink Floyd album i've ever bought, except that it's very, very, good, But if you're looking for happy, cheerful music, look elsewhere, because although it contains a wide range of moods such as anger, fear, and bleak sadness, there's not a jolly tune anywhere. David Gilmours' guitar is simply ace, and effect of Roger Water's biting, sarcastic lyrics is heightened by his powerful voice. Makes a solid listen, especially the second disc, but as the tracks are all merged together by random sound effects like furious teachers and aeroplane engines it's hard to put individual tracks on an MP3 or ipod but forget about that anyway because it's supposed to be a single work. Overall not a waste ... Read More:

Live from Nowhere in Particular

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Joe Bonamassa

August 25, 2008
What a disappointment!

I put this into the cd player hoping to be blown away by some seriously good blues/rock but....well, 6 plays later, I'm still waiting. Maybe it's too American for my taste but if you want good blues/rock music tune into Paul Rodgers, Free, Ian Siegal etc.

Joe Bonamassa can certainly play (apparently he opened for BB King when he was 12!) but I couldn't discern any connection with the noise coming out of the speakers.

Soul-less.

Overloaded: The Singles Collection

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Sugababes

November 13, 2006
I can't think of any reason for why people gives this album three or even one star??? How can you critisize an album which is made up by previous hit singles. After my opinion a Single Collection is never bad, and especially not this.
Here are all the favorite Sugababes songs gathered on one cd. Could it get any better?! No, of course not!!

Every single track on this cd is splendid; the no 1 hits Push the Button, Hole in the Head, Round,Round, and Freak like Me gives you a good headach. And not too mension the hit ballads Too lost in you, Stronger, and Ugly. And the new and sexy single Easy gives the single collection the final touch.
But we must not forget the other top-charts songs that is to find here; Red Dress, In the Middle, Shape, ... Read More:

Here We Stand

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: The Fratellis

June 09, 2008
The most uplifting album I've heard for a while. This album is packed with boisterous, singalong classics that fulfill the promise of Costello Music. This is a better album. The Fratellis have obviously gained in confidence and there is evidence of abundant songwriting and technical skill here. On first listen, I was struck by musical reminders of Artic Monkeys (My Friend John), Suede(Lupe Brown), Waterboys and Kasabian (Tell Me a Lie), for example. This was a departure from Costello Music which had a consistent Slade feel. The variety of styles is welcome and promises even better for the future because it suggests a good understanding of what it takes to write great songs.

Roll With You

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Eli 'Paperboy' Reed

June 23, 2008
It's quite simple...

If you want something you can dance to or tap your foot to, then this is for you! If you want something light hearted, upbeat and funky then this is for you! If you like the upbeat songs from Al Green, Ray Charles, James Brown, and even the Blues Brothers, then this is for you! At under a tenner then it is well worth a buy and a listen to. Some of the tracks such as "Stake Your Claim" and "It's Easier" are among the best on the album and a perfect counter to the miserable British weather.

If you are anally retentive and break songs down by focusing on particular brass assortments, pitch and tone of a singer's voice or the overall construction of a song, then this is NOT for you! If you feel that Rhythm and Blues died in the seventies then ... Read More:
