2 CD - UK Import

Dexter Wansel has long been respected as a songwriter, producer, arranger and musician in equal measure, in large part due to his long and impressive list of credits with the legendary Philadelphia International Record Label (among others) having played a pivotal role in developing "The Philly Sound" through the 1970's.

He has worked with and written hit songs for the likes of The Jacksons, MFSB, Teddy Pendergrass, The Jones Girls and Jean Carn. This comprehensive compilation includes every track Wansel recorded for PIR as a solo artist between 1976 and 1979 that featured on his 4 jazz-funk oriented albums for the label. Life On Mars (R&B #44), What The World Is Coming To (R&B #45), Voyager (R&B #37) and Time Is Slipping Away (R&B #58) allowed Wansel to show his myriad talents to the fullest and explore his deep interest in the cosmos.

From the jazz/funk of classic tracks such as LIFE ON MARS, (R&B #91) and VOYAGER through the honeyed soul of THE SWEETEST PAIN, (R&B #40) TIME IS SLIPPING AWAY and HOLDIN' ON, and dance floor gold I'LL NEVER FORGET (MY FAVOURITE DISCO, and DANCE WITH ME TONIGHT, alongside the R&B hits SOLUTIONS (R&B #87) and" IT'S BEEN COOL (R&B #91) Wansel's PIR output effortlessly blends together and shows off the incredible depth of his song-writing and musicianship. Expertly assisted by a plethora of Philly talent such as The Jones Girls, Herb Smith, Stanley Clarke, Cynthia Biggs, Jean Carn and Terri Wells among many others, Wansel's legacy at PIR is firmly assured.

BBR is proud to release DEXTER WANSEL - STARGAZER: THE PHILADELPHIA INTERNATIONAL RECORDS ANTHOLOGY (1976-1980). This double CD compilation includes extensive liner notes including interviews with Dexter Wansel and many of the contributing artists.

parodies of a classic
Format: Paperback
In Shamela, Fielding gives us the behind-the-scenes true Hollywood version of Pamela's story (and it's tabloid worthy). In Joseph Andrews, Fielding shares the tale of Pamela's brother caught in the same sort of madcap antics she endured.

An Excellent Film
The success of this film is derived from Paul Schrader’s concept for the film and his hiring of his production designer, Eiko Ishioka, a Japanese female artist. The four chapters are presented in a simple setting with ingenious design while telling Mishima’s personal history and development into a Nobel price winning author and martyr for his political beliefs. This blu ray is a new restored 4K digital transfer of the director’s cut. As usual Criterion Collection also included a wealth of commentaries, interviews, a 1985 documentary about Mishima and a booklet. A very best blu ray package if you are interested in the person and subject matters.

Astonishing Movie
This is exactly the kind of movie that would never receive funding today and get within hailing distance of production. This movie was my 'gateway drug' into the dark and fascinating world of Yukio Mishima which is one of those things where, as the saying goes, "If you know, you know." This film is basically a collection of several short films woven together. One is the story of Mishima himself, from childhood up to the morning of his last day. The other shorts are taken from four of his novels, including my personal favorite, 'Runaway Horses'. For the biographical portions of the film, which are mostly in black-and-white, Roy Scheider's narration is excellent as well. All in all, this movie is a beautiful introduction to Yukio Mishima as well as an artistic triumph for Paul Schrader.

Fantastic and Thought-Provoking
Mishima is a complicated figure in literary and Japanese history, but this film manages to capture the complexity of the man without seeming like it either loves or hates him. Great cinematography and the reenactments of Mishima's stories are wonderful. Music is fantastic as well.
