The Immaculate Collection



The Immaculate Collection
The naughtily titled Immaculate Collection culls 15 of Madonna's Top 10 singles from 1984 to mid-'90, plus 2 new ones that continued the run (the dirty, trunk-bumping funk of "Justify My Love"--a Lenny Kravitz production that justifies his entire career--and the danceable desperation of "Rescue Me"). Rooted in disco and classic AM pop from girl groups and ABBA to Strawberry Alarm Clock, Madonna made savvy, touching music throughout her first golden era. These tracks retain their sonic and historical significance while, like "She Loves You" or "Rocket Man," still brightening any space they're being played in. Far more than just a wise, irreverent image-maker--like the Beatles or Elton, come to think of it--Madonna during these years was the gift that kept on giving, forever fresh, sexy, hooky, and joyously sharp. --Rickey Wright

Customer Review: Madonna Rocks

This is my first Madonna purchase and I am very pleased with it. Quite a number of the songs are the ones that I grew up with. I totally enjoy the album.

Customer Review: Irreverent and fun collection of Madonna's early hits

The cheekily titled Immaculate Collection contains the majority of Madonna's smash hits from the 1980s to early 1990, including such pop standards as Like a Virgin, Papa Don't Preach, Holiday, La Isla Bonita, and Material Girl. However, there are some other great slow additions that don't receive quite as much radio play in the present, including Crazy For You, Live to Tell, and Open Your Heart. There's one of Madonna's edgier, more overtly sexual tracks at the end of the CD, Justify My Love, that foreshadowed her Erotica and Sex period.



Although I was too young to remember most of these firsthand, especially earlier tracks like Borderline or Lucky Star, it's a testament to Madonna's enduring legacy that I know so many of them by heart from radio exposure and soundtracks. Even though the production (synths, drum machines) dates many of them, they are still enjoyable on their own, many with stronger lyrical chops than I would have expected for dance pop.



To be honest, this would have been better as a 2CD set to allow for major omissions such as True Blue, Angel, Dress You Up and Who's That Girl, but fans looking for her earlier dance hits such as Vogue and poppy delights such as Holiday and Cherish won't be disappointed. Also, several of the songs are remixes rather than original album versions, which may disappoint some fans, but overall, this is a pleasing pop confection sure to bring back memories of the '80s from one of music's enduring voices and trendsetters (cone bras, anyone?).



Here for the Party



Here for the Party
Her mother was 16 when she had her, and her father moved on when she was two. By the age of 15, with a double-barrel shotgun always at the ready, she was managing a kicker bar in rural Illinois where the corn fields meet the pig farms. That gave Gretchen Wilson something to sing about, with attitude in spades. "You might think I'm trashy, a little too hardcore," she admits on the smash single "Redneck Woman," "but in my neck of the woods I'm just the girl next door." Wilson, already the toast of Nashville before this full-length debut hit the shelves, isn't just putting the trailer park back into country music--she's the antidote to Shania and Faith. Nothing here sounds manufactured or studied, and the best songs are those she wrote. If most of those spotlight the fightin' side that has made "Redneck Woman" an anthem with blue-collar babes, she lets her vulnerability show on her choice of covers, particularly Leslie Satcher's gospel-rap of "Chariot" and the marital weeper "The Bed." Whatever you think of Wilson, who packs a hint of Sammi Smith and Allison Moorer--and even Janis Joplin--into her double-fisted delivery, you won't forget her. Move over, Loretta. Make way, Tanya. Here's another good ol' honky-tonk girl. --Alanna Nash

Customer Review: Good

If you like country music this is an alright CD. The songs that I liked, I loved, but the ones I didn't like, I skipped, so I couldn't even tell you what they were. The CD has a mixture of different kinds of country on it, it's not all "I'm Here for the Party" lyrics (which i love). I could leave some of the slower songs though.

Customer Review: Debut Smash

Here for the Party is a great debut album from Gretchen Wilson. It probably grates on the nerves of country purists, but whatever, I like it a lot. It is brash and rowdy quite often, with attitude, but not so as to be off-putting. Gretchen bills this as reveling in the kind of trashy side, and lives up to the billing. Her voice is perfect for what this album purports to be. Teh album starts very strong with 4 excellent songs:



Here for the Party - rowdy party anthem

Redneck Woman - celebration of a subculture

When I Think About Cheatin' - good, reflective slower tune. Gretchen can

put real feeling into a ballad tune

Homewrecker - warning to a cookie to stay away from singer's man



The album gets kind of slower in teh middle. Then it gets faster with "When it Rains," which is a good honkytonk tune. The album closes with "Pocahontas" which is a good tune saluting her home town.



Excellent start by Gretchen.



The New Rules of Lifting for Women: Lift Like a Man, Look Like a Goddess



The New Rules of Lifting for Women: Lift Like a Man, Look Like a Goddess
If you believe what most women's magazines tell you, muscles can be "shaped," "toned," and "sculpted" with nothing more than a little dumbbell that weighs less than a can of peas. But muscles aren't modeling clay, and the only way to transform them is to strengthen them. The New Rules of Lifting for Women is for the woman who's ready to throw down the "Barbie" weights and start a strength and conditioning program that will give her the body of her dreams.

The book puts to rest the shop-worn notion that women who train with heavy weights will bulk up. Nonsense! Women simply don't have enough testosterone to pack on muscle like a bodybuilder. Here's the truth: lifting weights not only makes you stronger, it also makes you leaner. In fact, most women would have to run twice as long to receive the same fat-burning benefits as weight lifters.

A better workout in less time may sound too good to be true, but champion trainer Alwyn Cosgrove creates six months' worth of workouts that will build strength, burn fat, and rev up the metabolism. His total body workouts target all the major muscle groups, and each exercise is accompanied by clear black- and-white photographs that illustrate proper technique and form.

A nutrition plan is another key feature of the book. To gain strength you have to feed muscle, and nutritionist CassandraForsythe has designed a regimen to achieve this goal. She strongly recommends small, frequent meals and offers meal plans, along with fifty recipes, to satisfy women's special needs through breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. The New Rules of Lifting for Women will become the standard for smart women who take their fitness goals seriously.

Customer Review: Not incredibly impressed...

I was so excited to check this book out from the library, but when I got it home, I was sorely disappointed. As one reviewer pointed out, this book does spend a great deal of time going over what's wrong about other popular diets and exercise programs. It gets tedious after a while, and I found myself wanting to skip ahead.



Second, the nutrition program wasn't what I was looking for. First of all, for trying to loose weight, it just recommends too much food. I followed it for 2 weeks and actually gained weight. Once I adjusted my calories, I started to lose weight again. I wasn't particularly enticed by the recipes, but I did try a few of them. None of them seemed to be keepers.



Third, the workout plan wasn't what I was looking for. First of all, the author recommends full body workouts that incorporate several muscle groups together. He suggests leaving out small muscle groups like the biceps and calves because they'll get worked when you work the larger muscle groups. Well, that doesn't help those of us women who work out to change the look of our bodies or specifically a body part we don't like. So for example, here I am with huge "cankles" that I'm looking to get rid of. My lower legs aren't particularly fat, and I've had thick ankles ALL my life. There's no getting around the "cankles" but I can minimize the appearance of them by bulking up my calf muscles. If I never do a calf raise, I won't ever get there. My point is that sometimes it is helpful to do isolation exercises for smaller muscle groups, and the author actually discourages it. That's when you can tell the book is written by a man for a woman. :) He just doesn't get what most women are trying to accomplish by working out.



These are, of course, just my opinions, but most of this stuff is no-brainer stuff. If you've picked up this book, you're probably not new to exercise or weight training. You can find all this stuff in Oxygen Magazine or Muscle and Fitness HERS. Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Diet is a good one, too. I'd steer clear of this book or check it out at the library first to see if it's what you're looking for.

Customer Review: Schuler does it again, this time for women

I read and loved Schuler's original New Rules of Lifting, so I pre-ordered The New Rules for women even though I guessed that it would by and large be the same book. Wrong! Though fundamentally the message is the same--step away from the machines and pick up a heavy weight--Schuler really has rewritten this book completely for women. He addresses women's health and fitness concerns directly. The nutrition section is also tremendously fleshed out from his previous book. It's interesting that the most repetitive section of the book is the exercises themselves--but that shouldn't really surprise me, after all. Schuler's point is in fact that women should drop the Barbie weights and join the men lifting the "real" weights if they hope to attain their fitness goals. Right on. Highly recommended resource!
