One of the three most famous tenors in the world, the exceedingly round Luciano Pavarotti has a voice that could shake all of New York City. And it surely shook all of Central Park on the night that the star performed in 1993. As captured on this video, Pavarotti is ably backed by members of the New York Philharmonic as he belts out dozens of classical and traditional tunes ranging from Verdi's LA TRAVIATA to Duke Ellington's It don't mean a thing (if it ain't got that swing).Selections:Verdi: LUISA MILLEROvertureQuando le sere al placidoMercadante: Flute Concerto in E MinorRondo russoDonizetti: LUCIA DI LAMMERMOORFra poco a me ricoveroVerdi: I VESPRI SICILIANI - OvertureCilea: L'ARLESIANA - Il lamento di FedericoTake the'A' train (Strayhorn)It don't mean a thing (if it ain't got that swing) (Ellington)I can go to God in prayer (traditional)Mattinata (Leoncavallo)Serenata (Mascagni)La mia canzone al vento (Bixio)Fantaisie brilliante sur Carmen (Bizet/Borne)Chitarra romana (Di Lazzaro)La Girometta (Sibella)Occhi di fata (Denza)Verdi: LA TRAVIATA - Prelude to Act IIIRondine al nido (De Crescenzo)Non ti scordar di me (De Curtis)Massenet: WERTHER - Porquoi me reveiller?Puccini: TOSCARecondita armoniaE lucevan le stelleO sole mio (Di Capua)Puccini: TURANDOT - Nessun dorma

A DJ since the age of 5, Beenie Man has grown up a reggae superstar with over 60 number one hits to his name, as well as a number of Jammys (Jamaica's equivalent to the Grammys), and a Grammy nomination for Best Reggae Album. Maintaining his role as the undisputed king of dancehall, Beenie Man blurs the lines between reggae, hip hop, and pop with a style that has made him a favorite of live audiences, remaining simultaneously both raw and commercially viable. ART AND LIFE (2000) was the reggae rapper's first album with Virgin records, and featured guest appearances by Wyclef Jean and ghetto diva Mya. The tracks on ART AND LIFE range from humorous pastiche delivered with his characteristic lyrical flair, to the socially conscious and the soulful. All, however, are a danceable, infectious good time. This release includes Murder, Ain't Goin Out Like Dat, and Fire Burn.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1/PCM Stereo - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Video ShootInteractive Features: DiscographyAdditional Product Bonus CD DiscographyText/Photo Gallery: 2b1 Complete Poster Catalogue

It's rare to see a musical comedy which allows an actor of Jimmy Stewart's caliber to exploit his charismatic screen persona, but POT O' GOLD fits this bill. Stewart plays Jimmy Haskell, the owner of a struggling music store whose financial predicament forces him to go into business with his uncle C.J. (Charles Winninger). C.J. can't stand modern music, but his prosperous health food company sponsors Haskell's Happiness Program, a popular weekly music program on the radio. C.J. is engaged in an ongoing feud with Mom McCorkle's boarding house because of the consistent noise emanating from the band of Horace Heidt, which resides there. When Jimmy falls for Molly McCorkle (Paulette Goddard), one of the band's singers, and takes up residence at Mom McCorkle's, his situation with both Molly and his uncle becomes dangerous--Molly doesn't know Jimmy is a Haskell, and C.J. doesn't know Jimmy is lobbing tomatoes at him on behalf of the band. The romantic moments between Stewart and Goddard are excellent as are the songs, which include A knife, a fork, and a spoon, When Jonny toots his horn, and Do you believe in fairy tales?DVD Features:Region 1 EncodingKeep CaseSpecial features: Direct scene access, lobby poster, biography, interactive trivia questions and answers.
