![]() Reprise $17.49 With the temporary hiatus of Windham Hill Records (his former label) Tom Grant has ceased to stand still. This is his second release on his own label Doubleplay Records. Tom Grant has released yet another classic gem. These classics have been around for quite some time, however, Grant has managed to add some additional light and improvement to his often so perfect productions. I am always skeptical of old material being re-released by an artist, however with REPRISE this is certainly not the case. With such everlasting classics such as "Angels Crossing" and "Never Say Never" is is hard to deny the fact that REPRISE is certainly well worth the addition to your CD collection. Enjoy Revolution Music ![]() Platoon - 20th Anniversary Collector's Edition (Widescreen) $19.98 Insightful, compelling, and a somewhat realistic account of, the war in Viet Nam, as seen through the eyes of the soldiers' perspective. For the sake of Hollywood, story telling, the characters and events were altered for dramatic purposes. So, it's not a documentary, or even close to one. The images, and war footage, was realistic looking in a way, giving the viewer a sense of what it was like, over there. Unlike Apocalypse Now, which was more metaphorical, not to say, that Platoon, also, did not rely heavily upon symbols as well. The characters in the film, took on symbolic roles, depicting the struggle that was present in the soldiers, who were not seen as all good, or all bad either. |
