West Side Story Movie Review

5 stars One of the Best Musicals Ever
I owned this movie in VHS format before. Now that I've purchased it and viewed it in DVD format, I've discovered a new found appreciation for this great american movie musical classic. The crispness and clarity of the picture far surpasses the video version (especially when you watch it on a plasma TV). The extras on the DVD were also fabulous, giving you wonderful insight into the making of the film. The main story keeps you watching to the end, the music makes you want to listen to it all the time (I also own it on audio CD), and the dancing makes you want to watch it all the time. A must purchase for any individual who desires to own and appreciate great american movie classics, especially musicals.

Spanish Harlem Orchestra Un Gran Dia En El Barrio CD (2002)

West Side Story review

$13.65

UN GRAN DIA EN EL BARRIO was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Salsa Album. If the Spanish Harlem Orchestra are, as the promo copy suggests, "Harlem's answer to Cuba's Buena Vista Social Club," then Un Gran Dia en el Barrio is the soundtrack to a sweaty summer party in the city. One can almost hear the music and beats reverberating off the cement as they come curling out of a streetside window. The disc documents the salsa music native to upper Manhattan's Spanish Harlem and presents the music's tightly entwined grooves -- synchronized horn lines twisting over syncopated rhythms -- with enough fidelity for clarity and sufficient warmth for liveliness. Pianist Oscar Hernandez serves as bandleader to the dozen or so veteran musicians who make up the effortlessly grooving band. ~ Jesse Jarnow Recorded at Sear Sound Studios, New York, New York. The Spanish Harlem Orchestra: Ray De La Paz, Frankie Vasquez, Herman Olivera (vocals); Mitch Frohman (baritone saxophone); Ray Vega, Paul Agraz (trumpet); Jose Davila, Ozzie Melendez (trombone); Oscar Hernandez (piano); Ruben Rodriguez (bass); Bobby Allende (bongos); George Delgado (congas) Pablo "Chino" Nunez (timbales). Additional personnel: Jimmy Sabater (vocals).

Rhythms Del Mundo: Cuba CD (2006)

West Side Story DVD

$15.65

Turning the covers album concept on its head, Rhythms del Mundo: Cuba doesn't set a varied group of northern artists loose on the music made famous by the Buena Vista Social Club, but instead sets the Club's members lose on the northerners' own songs. Now that's an inspired idea, and all to aid charities assisting the victims of natural disasters and raising awareness of climate change. However, to call this a covers album is a bit misleading, as most of the songs feature the original vocals, and occasionally some of the original instrumentation, but it's not a remix project either, as the Social Club add their own music to the original recordings. So, it's a grand fusion of Cuban and northern sounds. And eclectic to boot, with songs contributed by such international artists as Quincy Jones, Sting and U2, as well as the likes of Radiohead and Coldplay. But to give the set a real frisson, the Social Club also took on such younger, feted artists as Franz Ferdinand, Maroon 5, the Kaiser Chiefs, and the so hot they're actually sizzling Arctic Monkeys. Reaching back into the past, Ibrahim Ferrer and the Club also deliver up a lush cover of "As Time Goes By," Omara Portunondo joins Ferrer for an equally lavish "Casablanca," and in another (and one of her final recordings) the late singer offers up a heartrending "Killing Me Softly." These numbers give the set its timeless quality; the rest its up-to-date feel. Not every song works perfectly, Jack Johnson's vocals are a bit uncomfortable rhythmically on his version, but Coldplay's is superb, the Arctic Monkeys are absolutely lethal, U2's track is stunning, and Dido and Faithless' is sublime. The Club brings out the sweetness and glow of Maroon 5's song, give the Kaiser Chiefs a wonderful Latin kick, totally reinvent Radiohead, then give Quincy Jones a lesson in authentic Spanish music, while trotting out their own soul credentials. Of course the musicianship is flawless, the arrangements inspired, and this mix of north and
