Edition includes the 64-bit (with 32-bit compatibility) PLAY advanced sample engine with built-in network control (see below for more details). The choirs were recorded in the same concert hall, by the same team as the EastWest/Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra and this sample collection blends perfectly with EWQLSO. To achieve the feel of a live concert hall performance, each instrument and section on EastWest's Symphonic Choirs was recorded with three mic positions: close, stage (conductor's position), and hall. By selecting different mic positions, you can mix these sounds together to create any kind of natural ambiance your project requires.

The Nashville String Machine (strings); George Tidwell (trumpet); Tim Akers, Steve Nathan (keyboards); Jimmie Sloas (bass); Chris McHugh, Steve Brewster (drums); Eric Darken (percussion); Tedd T. (programming); Chris Rodriguez, Gene Miller, Bekka Bramlett (background vocals); Josh Freese. Recorded at Emerald Entertainment and Ocean Way Nashville, Tennessee; The Sound Kitchen, Franklin, Tennessee. CD contains 1 bonus track. This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. The first three songs on Jewel Kilcher's first new album after a long layoff (her previous release was a 1999 Christmas album) embrace country, alternative rock, and a kind of John Cougar Mellencamp rock/country. She finds her own voice five songs in, with the tour de force ""Do You Want to Play?"" whose smart lyrics combined with a killer chorus are an immediate highlight of this self-assured collection. ""Jesus Loves You"" is a thoughtful meditation on consumerism that also manages to include the sassy couplet ""It's not what I can do for anybody/It's what their body can do for me,"" underlining the singer's confident way with her subject matter. ""Till We Run Out of Road"" is that rock & roll staple, the road song, but she returns to form with ""Everyone Needs Someone Sometime,"" a self-explanatory examination in which the singer's smart storytelling skills are on full display. With the inclusion of a couple of solo acoustic live tracks showcasing Jewel's raw talent and its firm rock backbone underlaying her maturing vocals, THIS WAY is a confident return to form from a singer many had previously written off as a one-hit wonder.Rolling Stone (11/22/01, p.89) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - ""...Elegant, earthy, engaged..."" Q (2/02, p.110) - 3 stars out of 5 - ""...An album of tuneful but calculated pop-rock to be admired rather than loved..."""  (less)

keyboards); Herman Rarebell (background vocals). Airway Allstars: Siedah Garrett, Michelle Wolf, Lynn Davis, James Ingram, Phil Perry, Kevin Dorsey (background vocals). Engineers include: A.T., Christian Leitgeb, Paul Ericksen. Mention the Scorpions to your average music fan, and they'll say, ""You mean those German metal dudes, right?"" They probably won't say anything about ballads. Well, give them EYE TO EYE, and they might have to rethink things. Filled with loud slow jams, this edition of the 1999 session features the bonus track ""You & I."" Teutonic terrors Scorpions return with EYE TO EYE, their first album for Koch Records. The band retains the crunchy hard rock style that has kept it potent since the '70s and adds a contemporary commercial touch that proves Scorpions are not living in the past. ""Mysterious"" and ""To be No.1"" kick off the album, and both may raise the eyebrows of longtime fans. These excellent tunes contain beats and loops-a first for the group. The latter is the first single, with a video spoofing the Clinton/Lewinsky affair. The slower groove of ""Obsession"" is primed for radio airplay. ""Mind Like a Tree"" shows the group trading its lightning fast licks for a more plodding, Soungarden-ish feel. ""What U Give you get Back"" is an acoustic number showcasing the fine vocal talents of Klause Meine. The album closing ""A Moment in a Million Years"" features Peter Wolf on piano, another sign of maturity for a band labeled as heavy metal its entire career. EYE TO EYE rocks hard while venturing into uncharted pop territories. Scorpions keep current without selling out, and veteran fans will have a newfound respect for the band after multiple listens."  (less)
