Title: What happened, Mr. Watson? Product review: After being totally enamored with Russell Watson's first album, "The Voice", I have to say I am sorely disappointed by his latest offering. There are too many "pop" songs, and the opera selections here are plodding and dull. After such a nice selection of songs on his first album, I was hoping for something similar here. Unfortunately, this album did not live up to my expectations. I still like his voice, but I think he should more carefully consider his choice of songs for his next album.However, I loved the first track, "Va Pensiero." That's the only reason I gave this album two stars instead of just one. Too bad that song wasn't released on its own as a single...

Title: Poorly executed and misleading. Product review: This book has a gimmicky title and a cheap price, but it fails deplorably on several fronts. For one, the lay-out and print quality are absolutely embarrassing considering the times we live in. One of the few musical examples actually looks as though it were rendered by a dot-matrix printer. Further, the unrealistic exercises are ambiguously described and seldom illustrated. They are also a complete waste of time since one is better off sightreading real compositions. That's why it's better to invest in sheet music/ etudes that suit one's tastes. The Musician's Institute Sightreading for Keyboard book is far more helpful and complete at a comparable price, offering several chapters of exercises and etudes without making ludicrous promises--very professional indeed. There is really no substitute for practice; forget the nonsense of "secrets" and invest elsewhere. Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?

Title: well, almost... Product review: Rhino has by and large done right by the Love catalog over the years, but they just miss the mark here. No "Message to Pretty"? No "Castle"? No "August"? Tsk, tsk, tsk... should've taken care of business before chasing after later tracks. And I really don't know that the lengthy "You Set the Scene" belongs on an abbreviated best-of like this. Of course, this does have the great Rhino sound and packaging, but my recommendation would be to splurge for the two disc _Love Story_ set. It's worth it.
