I love this cd; It remembers me my childhood and my teenager years!! I saw the movie at the cinema when I was 12 years old and I purchased it on vinyl; now, when I found it on the cd format, I bought it inmediately!! The songs are beautiful and in excellent condition, without scratch and in a very good restoration!! buy it!!

Gladiator: Special Anniversary Edition

Despite the plagiarism of Wagner (Siegfried's Funeral March) and Holst (Mars) this is an astonishing soundtrack.

Under Milk Wood

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Soundtracks
by: Spoken Word Richard Burton

January 29, 1999
I've no doubt that this was Dylan Thomas' finest piece, combining humour, pathos, and such an evocative atmosphere of a welsh fishing village. I am English and proud of it, but recognise characters from my childhood. Who could better the spoken voice of Richard Burton, as the main narrator, and Huw Griffiths, to bring such warmth to a brilliant play.

Great Scientists and Their Discoveries (Junior Classics)

Great for car journeys, well produced, and lots of interesting stuff. Recommended for children 8 plus. My 10, 14 and 18 year old all enjoy these Naxos books, and so do their parents.
Well done naxos.

Something Like This

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Soundtracks
by: Bob Newhart

April 23, 2001
My husband is a driving instructor so I felt this CD was a "must have" gift for him.

We are both were familiar with Bob Newhart's brilliantly funny sketches from years back - once hard - never forgotten. It's not only what he puts into his sketches that are so funny, as what he leaves out, with well timed pauses skillfully setting the scene in the listener's imagination.

The Driving Instructor is a pure classic - I defy anyone not to laugh have until they have tears rolling down their cheeks. The Grace L Ferguson Airline (and Storm Door co) is brilliantly funny also, as is the Retirement Party and the Bus Drivers' School.

This is wonderfully funny humour which still works today and very cleverly constructed ... Read More:

I saw the film and really liked it, so I bought this. Unfortunately, on this version of the CD all of Jennifer Hudson's powerful songs are 'highlight' versions, so not the ones used in the film...The CD isn't bad, but it wasn't what I wanted...I am going to try the deluxe version.

The Wire And All the Pieces Matter OST Five Years Of Music From The Wire (Deluxe Complete Edition)

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Soundtracks
by: Various Artists

January 21, 2008
The Wire was almost universally acclaimed as being one of the best programmes ever made for TV and I, like many others, was sorry to see it come to an end earlier this year. If you miss the series yourself, but perhaps don't want to buy the DVDs and work your way through the whole saga again then this CD could be just what you need! It is a companion CD to The Wire: Beyond Hamsterdam Baltimore Tracks from The Wire (Hip Hop Edition) and features the tracks listed:


1. "This America, Man"
2. Way Down In The Hole - The Blind Boys Of Alabama
3. "Why Would Anyone Ever Wanna Leave Baltimore?"
4. Oh My God - Michael Franti & Spearhead
5. Dance My Pain Away - Rod Lee
6. My Life Extra - Dj Technics
7. "The ... Read More:
