Customer Review: awesome!

this is an awesome cd even for old people like us (in our 50's). Amy Winehouse is an unusual young lady with an interesting voice and character. We love her retro music. Plus the cd came in record time from Amazon. Thanks!

Customer Review: what a dissapointment

i looked forward to receiving this c.d.

seeing ms. winehouse on t.v. made me curious as to how well she performed.

sufficient to say i was not happy with the c.d. as a whole.

she has great talent, is unusual and has a shot at super stardom. i hope she doesn't drown in her own negativity. both professionaly nor personaly.

Raising Sand

Raising Sand
The musical collaboration of the decade, Raising Sand is the sound of two iconic figures stepping out of their respective comfort zones and letting their instincts lead them across a brave new sonic landscape. Despite hailing from distinctly different backgrounds, Alison Krauss and Robert Plant share a maverick spirit and willingness to extend the boundaries of their respective genres. This spirit, expertly honed by producer T Bone Burnett, has resulted in an album pitched three steps beyond some cosmic collision of early urban blues, spacious West Texas country, and the untapped potential of the folk-rock revolution.

Supported by the unparalleled musicianship of Marc Ribot, Dennis Crouch, Mike Seeger, Jay Bellerose, Norman Blake, Greg Leisz, Patrick Warren, and Riley Baugus, Plant and Krauss -- as both solo and harmony vocalists -- tackle an intriguing selection of songs from such tunesmiths as Tom Waits, Gene Clark, Sam Phillips, Townes Van Zandt, The Everly Broth! ers, and Mel Tillis. Raising Sand finds Robert Plant and Alison Krauss exploring popular music's elemental roots while still sounding effortlessly, breath-takingly contemporary.

The song "Killing the Blues" is featured in the new JC Penney American Living Campaign.

Customer Review: Give it a chance...you'll fall in love...

I'm a huge Alison Kraus fan. My wife bought this for me as a gift. I was terribly excited. When I listened to it the first time, I was disappointed. The second time I found a track or two that I liked a little. After listening a third time, I was hooked. This is not what you expect from either Plant or Kraus, but once you listen to it a few times, it sort of comes into its own as something very special. It'll be ranked among some of my all-time favorites.

Customer Review: The snips of songs I heard before the release really got me excited....

To make a long story short, I gave the CD to a friend of mine. There are a couple of very good songs, but most of it sounds forced, like both of them are way out of their element.

Customer Review: Worthwile Upgrade

If you are a user or TurboTax Business and Quickbooks, then you will find this a worthwhile upgrade. Additionally, I have been using this version on Vista Home Premium 64 Bit and it is working fine.

Customer Review: WARNING! - QuickBooks is Adware

Unless you like reading pop up ads, don't buy this software. QuickBooks Pro forces you to suffer through a constant barrage of pop up ads for addtional services, products and upgrades. I just spoke to customer service and they told me there is no way to disable this feature. I can understand being forced to read ads for free software, but I am stunned that I am forced to read ads in a piece of software that I paid for. The next time I am forced to upgrade (QuickBooks stops supporting older versions of their software after just a few years) I'll just switch to one of their competitors.

Customer Review: OBD II & Electronic Engine Management Systems (Haynes)

This book is easy reading and comprehensive. It covers all of the OBD II diagnostic codes for the majority of auto builders. I've found it to be very helpful in diagnosing vehicles with the check engine light on.

Customer Review: OBD-II insight

The book is quite useful to help one understand how the OBD-II system works. It may not solve your current problem, but at least you will have some idea of what causes the "service engine" light to come on and sometimes go off. It makes no bones about the fact that some problems are difficult to solve.

At first I was a bit sceptic about the offer. At RM9.99 per night, I hardly think they will be making any money running the hotel business.
