4.0 out of 5 stars One Of The Best, February 15, 2004

Alexander Forson (Clackmananshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Sahara (Audio CD)

If you like the Rippingtons you will love this CD. If not give it a try you may come to love the Rippingtons like I do. Highlights of the album are a wonderful version of "I'll Be Around" sung by Jeffrey Osborne and the title track "Sahara".

5.0 out of 5 stars "Sahara" is quintessential Rippingtons!, September 1, 2005

T. Reidy "Jazz-Cat" (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Sahara (Audio CD)

This CD is well crafted. There is a balance between tunes with a rock and roll edge, some more mellow songs and one with a calypso flavor, complete with steel drums! Also included in this musical work is a soulful rendition of the musical standard "I'll be there." The CD wraps up with a hard driving piece titled "Porcha". This band is hot!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent work, July 15, 2002

"ospawno" (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sahara (Audio CD)

I believe this to be one of the better Rippingtons albums, and it was in many ways the pinnacle of their career. Now eight years old...

I still listen to it eight years later.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top reviewers? Stay away
Talking about Sahara, I find this disc as one of the best in the Rippingtons catalogue probably second only to "Black Diamond" and "Weekend in Monaco". Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Unlistenable Fuzak, or, Aural Wallpaper
Listening to this disc is like eating a whole can of cake frosting. Russ Freeman makes George Benson sound like Jimmy Page. Don't you have better things to do with your money?

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the few CDs I own that I never get tired of.
I use this type of music to focus my mind during marathon software development sessions. I've had this CD for about two years, and still play it frequently.
