Average Rating: (4.5 out of 5 stars)
Scottish/Irish folksongs arr. by Beethoven These little gems come to life in this performance. Sophie's lovely uncluttered voice and clear diction are perfect in these renditions and the accompaniments are excellent. All performers are very good. I am wearing out the CD and am giving it 5 stars--truly delightful.

SEUSSICAL THE MUSICAL was nominated for the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album.
The fact that Monty Python alumnus Eric Idle takes partial conceptual credit for SEUSSICAL should tip you off to the fact that the ample comic potential of a Dr. Seuss musical is fully exploited here. Many of the characters from Dr. Seuss's classic books are given the sonic spotlight in SEUSSICAL.

$8.39 COSMIC MESSENGER is certainly more "cosmic" than Ponty's previous releases, thanks to the violinist's more pronounced use of synthesizer and the enlisting of Allan Zavod as his main keyboardist. The album finds Ponty exacting the energized fundamentals of rock while simultaneously fleshing out his already expanding sound palette.
With exuberant, atmospheric violin etchings and exciting runs of drums and bass underpinning Zavod's guitar thrusts, "Don't Let the World Pass You By" ...
