141.The Best of The Proclaimers by: Proclaimers May 13, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £8.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.98 You Save: £4.01 (45%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.99
One of the best CDs ever for beating the blues. Just infectious tunes that carry you along - the Proclaimers have never been fashionable but they're extremely good at what they do.

142.Buddhist Chants and Peace Music by: Jin Long Uen February 24, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £6.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.98 You Save: £3.01 (43%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.59
For less than £4 this CD is well worth buying. The other reviewers who gave it 5 stars are not wrong. It does create a sense of peacefulness and calm.

143.The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan by: Bob Dylan March 29, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £9.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.98 You Save: £5.01 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £4.49
This album contains some of Dylan's best songs, and alot of people seem to think that it's his best acoustic album. I have to say I disagree there, my favourite being 'another side', but this album has some great songs: there are protest songs such as 'a hard rain's a-gonna fall' (my favourite!) in which Dylan tells us about the hardships, poverty and injustice of the world with lyrics that paint almost horrific images in your mind, and 'oxford town', a short, very folky tune about racism in America, particularly in the south, and there are songs about lost friendships and love such as 'Bob Dylan's dream', 'corrina, corrina' and 'don't think twice, it's alright', plus bluesy comedies like 'Bob Dylan's blues' and 'I shall be free'. Yes, this album has a ... Read More:

144.Comme si de rien n'était by: Carla Bruni July 14, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.98 You Save: £7.01 (41%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.65
2007's No Promises, made before Carla Bruni became Mrs Sarkozy, was a surprisingly good album considering it's concept. A French-Italian super model setting music to 11 classic poems, including works by the likes of WB Yeats, Emily Dickinson, WH Auden and Dorothy Parker...who wouldn't want to avoid that like the plague? But here we are, 12 months down the line and Bruni has done it again. Only the one song is in English this time, You Belong To Me, and this proves to be a wise move. The bubbly Je Suis Une Enfant is one highlight, the breathy and sophisticated sound of Le Temps Perdu is another. But in reality there's not really much on the album that you wouldn't want to listen to again and again. But there is no way that Comme si de rien n'etait ... Read More:

145.The Holy Pictures by: David Holmes September 08, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.98 You Save: £10.01 (59%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £4.98
A complete shift away from the break beat grooves of his best known material towards a more Neu influenced vibe reminiscent of Primal Scream's 'Evil Heat' crossed with the Jesus and Mary Chain's 'Darklands'. So if you get off on those this should also be your bag. Like the JAMC's Jim Reid, DH half whispers rather than sings but that's fine. Whether I play this as often as 'This film..' remains to be seen. There isnt as much to find on repeated listenings as there is on his first 2 albums but it's still pretty good at that.

146.Tell Tale Signs: the Bootleg Series Vol.8/Rare and Unreleased 1989-2006 by: Bob Dylan October 06, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £8.98 You Save: £8.01 (47%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.36
Some great tracks with echoes of the 60's in some of the stripped down versions. It gives you an insight into how Bob is influenced by others and fits in well to his account in Cronicles. This is the best Dylan material that has been released for a long time. You can enjoy it new to Bob or old like me!

147.Deja Vu by: Crosby Stills Nash and Young September 19, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £6.63
I listen to an expansive range of musical styles and ages, from "The Classics" right through to Metal. Now I'm not calling myself an expert in the field by any means, but you can usually get a gut feeling pretty quickly about the effort, imagination and skill put into any work - and this album, from the first listen - give you audio pleasure at every turn. It just oozes skillfull musicianship and beautifully crafted harmonies. The type of work that will always be considered a classic and will always be replayed by the listener over and over again. As for the opinions about Young's involvement etc - it really doesn't matter - CSN were already fantastic - adding in Y was simply a case of adding an extra ingredient of a similar style - and for me - on this album - his presence ...

148.I Believe - Very Best Of The Bachelors by: The Bachelors July 21, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.98 You Save: £7.01 (41%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £5.49
I've always loved the Bachelors and grew up listening to their music, dad was always playing them...of course I had a crush on them, after all they were two great looking blokes from Ireland with superb voices. It's a great CD with all my favourite songs and makes for wonderful lazy Sunday morning listening. Just to sing along with none of the hissing and static that used to go with vinal records is a bonus as well. If you are a fan of the Bachelors then buy this CD I can promise you won't be disappointed. Just listening to Marta...wonderful,hmmmm!!, happy memories.

149.Collection by: Tracy Chapman September 24, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £10.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £5.88 You Save: £5.11 (46%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.89
Many artists have attempted to sum up the sadness and frustrations of those in impovershed communities. In doing so, many of these have aimed to offer genuine hope and encouragement at the same time. Issues such as poverty, gun crime, and oppression of working classes and ethnic minorities are not unusual song subjects. And yet, from punk to gangsta rap, I would defy you to find an artist who can sum them all up so eloquently and compassionately as Tracy Chapman. The collection (chosen by Tracy herself) opens with Fast Car, the song which made her a star almost overnight. With its beautiful and subtle melody, the song draws the attention immediately, but the lyrics are the real star, delivering a bittersweet message about socail problems and the difficulty of breaking ...

150.American Recordings by: Johnny Cash February 13, 2006
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £9.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.37 You Save: £3.62 (36%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.69
This is the first of the so-called American recordings, and arguably the best. The songs have been carefully selected by Cash, and I believe there is certainly something here for everyone. If you love music you will soon fall in love with this album. Most artists today don't have one percent of the emotional intensity that Cash had. I highly recommend this album without reservation.
