3 stars This is the Anthem of the world;
Jan Peerce's Blue Bird of Happiness, is real music with a voice to grab your hart, What ever happened to good clean music? What a voice ? We played the 78 rpm record on a hand winder at sea,God I remember the words now, Our skipper played it on the P.A,Sytem day & night,There was always some1to crank the handel, On the oppisit side was Mario Lanzua doeing BECAUSE OF YOU Through good times & bad times the The Blue Bird of Happyness has sustained a generation of warriors; Gave hope to millions of GOLD STAR Families who gave there HUSBANDS~FARTHERS& SON'S TO WWII, And KOREA, I'm old as dirt now!tear's roll down my cheeks listening to those REAL songs! And I fill guilty that the post war generations of kids had to listen to tons of horce menure that was called music, That was not even close to real music, Thank you so very much for giveing me time to VENT, I will order the B.B.O.H, by THE BEST OF THE BEST

4 stars Representative of Jan Peerce's Best
The selections were representative of Jan Peerce's best. Peerce's style does not get in the way of the musical selections. The sound quality is good to very good, considering that the originals were not recorded in a low distortion or high fidelity medium.

5 stars A song that redeems life
I grew up listening to my parent's 78rpm record of this recording: The Bluebird of Happiness. Through changing careers, marriages and divorces and marriage, and deaths of a parent and sibling and friends, this song brings my feet to earth and my heart into the clouds. Even at 58, I still sing the song when low or up, and my students seem to appreciate that music can uplift and not just entertain and amuse.

Despite his weak eyesight, Rudyard Kipling's son Jack was determined to serve in the military during World War I. Unlike many parents, Kipling was adamant that his son have the opportunity to see action and uphold the values that were a constant motif in his writing. By way of influence Jack finally made it to the front, never to return, and Kipling would spend years of his life trying to uncover his son's fate. This Masterpiece Theatre production is the story of one aspect of the writer's life that was more tragic than anything depicted in his adventure stories. Daniel Radcliffe takes off Harry Potter's robes to star in this serious drama. In 1914, Rudyard Kipling (David Haig) is at the peak of his literary fame and is the British Empire's greatest supporter. With World War I fast approaching, Kipling's son, Jack (Daniel Radcliffe), is determined to serve his country but finds himself rejected due to his extremely poor eyesight. When his father uses his influence to land ...

THE GOLDEN COMPASS is an adaptation of the first book in the beloved but controversial fantasy series by Phillip Pullman. The story opens with Lyra Belacqua (Dakota Blue Richards) an orphan girl who lives in an alternate world that is similar to earth, but where people's souls exist outside of their bodies in animal form. The people are ruled by a shadowy and oppressive council known as the Magisterium, which is doing it's best to keep everyone from getting information about what is called "Dust." Lyra's Uncle Asriel (Daniel Craig) has been researching Dust, and he has seen to it that Lyra is given safe shelter at Jordan College. But when the visiting Mrs. Coulter (Nicole Kidman) arrives, she asks Lyra to accompany her on a trip to the North to meet the Panserbjorne, a race of armored bears. Before Lyra leaves, the Headmaster gives her a golden compass, a device which only she can read, and from which she can intuit the truth. Lyra leaves with Mrs. Coulter, but when she learns that her friends have been kidnapped by "Gobblers," she heads out to find them, and soon joins forces with the nomadic Gyptians, some witches, and an armored bear called Iorek Byrnison (voice by Ian McKellen). Lyra finds her friends, and so discovers the evil plans the Magisterium has cooked up for the world's children. By the film's end, she has vowed to track down her Uncle Asriel, and to discover the true power of Dust. Hollywood had a tricky time of taming this tale, as Pullman's books portray religion - the Catholic Church in particular - in a less than flattering light. The film version carefully steers clear of these themes, and ...

Mysterious, troubled, and brilliant--Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky created an emotional array of compositions that captured both his inner demons as well as the time period he lived through. While facts about his life, and particularly his homosexual affairs, are difficult to come by, this dramatic interpretation is blended with a documentary approach led by acclaimed composer Charles Hazlewood. It's both a creative imagining of what Tchaikovsky's turmoil might have been like as well as a detailed analysis of what made his music ...
