Diana Ross is incredible
In my opinion, (surely due to strong bias because I have been listening to this album since I was a little girl) this album/DVD contains some of the absolute best versions of Billie Holiday songs ever recorded. Diana Ross exquisitely captured the perfect tempo(i), ...

Absolutely superb!
I purchased this dvd back in 2005, and i have to say it was one of the best concerts on dvd that i'd ever seen. I was just a little fella when this event took place, but Al Bell had a serious sound going on down there in Memphis. I've always been a big fan of Isaac ...

No tomorrow. No next week. No next month. No next year. Get The Toy today!
In the early 80's, controversial African American comedian Richard Pryor (See No Evil Hear No Evil) was in top form. He was the most influential and electrifying stand-up comic, and one of the highest paid black actors in Hollywood (Pryor was reportedly paid $4,000,000 ...

Silver Streak
Probably one of the best comedies ever. I've seen it several times and have never been bored. Lots of action. It definitely belongs in my collection. Highly recommended.

"Ease on Down the Road!"
"The Wiz" gave the Wizard of Oz a new musical life with its jazzy R&B and soul-inflected score,along with an African-American cast. The songs are catchy, especially "Ease on Down the Road." It's a Quincy Jones classic. Diana Ross is Dorothy,a schoolteacher in the ...

The Geen Beret - The Best
I have seen this movie several times throughout my life. It is a wonderful picture with emotions from the war and it always brings back my childhood since my Dad was in the military and was in Vietnam.

Warner, 2008
Time of your life, huh kid?
Risky Business is a fantastic movie, much more complex than the standard teen fare at the time. Great music by Tangerine Dream (written especially for the movie) and strong performances from its young cast, most notably a nineteen year old Tom Cruise and twenty four ...
Harlem Nights

Thomas Mikal Ford
Paramount, 2002
Classic Eddie Murphy
For some strange reason Harlem Nights has always been panned by critics (the same critics that panned other classics like Fight Club). It wasn't a box office smash either. Yet, from the very first viewing, I've been in love with this film. It's fall-on-the-floor funny. ...

Maybe the funnest thing EVER!
When asked for an example of something to "hot" to be included in the National Recording Registry, Gene DeAnna, the director of the recorded sound division at the Library of Congress, immediately replied: "The example that comes to mind, to me, is a Richard Pryor ...
Brewster's Millions

Great movie and great lesson
BE sure to watch this if you hit the lottery. Better to let Richard Prior make the mistakes and not you. Funny entertaining. A lot of fun to watch.

One Of The Best Comedies Ever Made
