3 stars Harry Chapin - Gold Medal Collection
This is a good collection of old Harry Chapin Songs. I recommend this 2 disk album to all Harry Chapin fans. If you haven't heard Harry, you are missing a real treat. Jerry Pfeiffer

5 stars Harry Chapin Gold Medal Collection
All my favorites on a two CD collection. The only glaring omission is '30,000 Pounds of Bananas', but that one is always performed before an audience. This CD makes an excellent campanion to "The Bottom Line Encore Collection" (Harry Chapin's last live performance). Harry Chapin was the most brilliant balladier of the last century, and this collection is a great tribute to this unique artist.

5 stars THE ESSENCE OF HARRY CHAPIN
THIS ALBBUM EXPOSES THE REAL HEART AND SOUL OF HARRY, AND THE FEELINGS THAT HE FEELS ABOUT LIFE,AND THE REAL PEOPLE OF THE WORLD. THERE IS NOTHING PHONEY ABOUT HIM OR HIS SONGS. HE SINGS ABOUT LIFE---GOOD OR BAD. HE SINGS ABOUT LIFE AS IT REALLY HAPPENS!!!!!! A LOT OF HIS SONGS ARE BASED UPON HIS OWN EXPERIENCES. WHY DO A LOT OF THE BEST SINGERS ABOUT REAL LIFE DIE SO YOUNG? I GUESS THAT IS A PART OF LIFE. HE WAS LOVING, GENEROUS, AND FAMILY ORIENTED!!!! I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT HIM, BUT IF ANYBODY HAS REALLY LISTENED TO HIS SONGS, YOU ALREADY KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU HARRY AND FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This album is amazing. If you are already a Harry Chapin fan, you are going to love the awesome collection of music, and the sound bytes of Harry talking. If you have never heard of Harry Chapin before, this album is a great introduction to one of the best singer/songwriters of our time.

Harry Chapin Verities & Balderdash CD  (1974)

Gold Medal Collection songs
CD $5.95  5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album (MP3 Available for Download)
Harry Chapin's fourth album, VERITIES & BALDERDASH, was his best studio effort and his most commercially successful, working its way up the US charts and eventually going gold. Its success is attributable, in part, to Chapin's excellent batch of tunes, which display his trademark narrative sensibility (Chapin's songs often unfold like short stories), literate wit, and knack for melody. VERITIES & BALDERDASH also works because its arrangements and production move away from the heavily orchestrated drama that mars some the artist's other studio work towards a cleaner sound that highlights the fine songwriting. Chapin's best-known song, "Cat's in the Cradle," is here. Based on a poem by the artist's wife, the tune is a year-by-year ...

Beyond his considerable skills as a tunesmith and the charm of his ragged, emotive voice, Harry Chapin was primarily a storyteller, and the appreciative, attentive audience gives GREATEST STORIES LIVE an intimate, fireside feel. With less emphasis on the orchestral arrangements that could detract from the studio work, Chapin and his band play with vigor here, clearly energized by the live setting. The best thing about GREATEST STORIES LIVE, however, is the selection of tunes, which plays to Chapin's penchant for the "point-of-view song." Chapin's ...

Buffalo Springfield's brief lifespan (essentially 1966-1968) was rich with promise but fraught with creative tensions. This friction ultimately fractured the band's core foundation of Stephen Stills and Neil Young. However, those same tensions--along with the formidable talents of Richie Furay and Jim Messina (replacing original bass player Bruce ...

Although Ashlee Simpson had to deal with the Saturday NIGHT LIVE lip-synching debacle that followed the release of her successful debut, she still managed to escape the shadow of her older sister, Jessica, and emerged as a popular performer in her own right. On 2005's I AM ME, Simpson clearly revels in her independence and renewed confidence, moving forward with an energetic set of guitar-heavy pop/rock tunes. Though her music still falls into the vein of Avril Lavigne and Hilary Duff, the dense, layered production of multi-instrumentalist John Shanks helps to distinguish the tunes here, ...
2-4-1
CJSS 2-4-1 CD  (1986) (Import) Finland

Gold Medal Collection album
CD $14.59
Available for the first time on CD in Europe, 2-4-1 contains two classic albums from CJSS, ā€˜World Gone Mad’ and ā€˜Praise the Loud’. CJSS was formed by guitar wizard David T. Chastain during early 1984 with two other members of the band Spike, drummer Les Sharp and bassist Mike Skimmerhorn, and vocalist Russell Jinkens who had gained fame for his stint in local Cincinnati cover band Prizoner.World Gone Mad was recorded in late 85 and released in early 86. David Chastain comments, ā€œThese were the tracks we had been playing since the band's beginning in late 84. "Communication Breakdown" was really just a track leftover from our cover band days in Spike that always seemed to go over well so we decided to include it on the Cd. I would say my personal favourites on the CD would be "No Man's Land" and "Living In Exile." The solo sections are still something I play in my practice routine. The track ā€œDestiny" was always a big favourite with the female fans. For a first effort I thought it was pretty impressiveā€.Praise The Loud was recorded in mid 86 and released in late 86. Chastain states, ā€œThis recording was a little better produced than WGM. Personal favourites include "Citizen of Hell" and "The Bargain." The track "Metal Forever" became the theme song for many radio stations during that era. "Out of Control" was usually the concert opener and rocked the houseā€.Considering both Cds hit in the same year, ...
