Nothing
Like The Sun is what a big-budget pop record should be. Highlighting
the major star talent of Sting, Nothing Like The Sun also features an
A-list producer and "studio" musicians who include Eric Clapton, Mark
Knopfler, Manu Katche’, Branford Marsalis, Andy Summers and more to
create a pop record that musically will pass the test of time.
You'll need a 5.1 surround sound processor and 5.1 speakers in your
system to fully enjoy the disc, but what good AudioRevolution.com
reader doesn’t have at least a happening 5.1 surround system at this
point?
Nothing Like The Sun is a pleasant mix of upbeat pop hits along with
thought-provoking political statements. Compared to Sting’s more recent
work, much of which has been remastered to 5.1 DTS CDs (read

The
Globe Sessions is Sheryl Crow’s third straight platinum record powered
by a career launched with VH1 and Adult Contemporary radio standards
like "Leaving Las Vegas" and "All I Wanna Do." Without the help of her

daunting challenge of writing more and more hit songs to power her
flourishing career.

This
album consists of a round dozen well-known Christmas carols arranged
for big band. Much as you might expect something like this to be pure
corn, don’t dismiss it out of hand, as it’s actually extremely
worthwhile: the arrangements are very impressive, the playing is
excellent, and the crisp digital recording shows off 5.1 surround-sound
very effectively.

Sting
is so consistent. When you flip open the jewel case on the Ten
Summoner’s Tales DTS 20 bit CD you see all of the Sting solo and Police
albums. There isn’t even a mediocre record on the list. Ten Summoner’s
Tales is no exception. Extremely well written, exquisitely recorded
with the some of the best musicians in the world, there is no wonder
why Ten Summoner’s Tales was such a success.
