Guitars Guitar Strummin Fender Gibson Cotton Throw Blanket

This is a lovely high quality Woven throw, made in USA. Great decoration for you home, office, excellent to hang on wall, fold on bed, etc.
Customer Review: Unique Gift
This gift was ordered as a Christmas gift to my teenage brother who loves guitars. I searched everywhere for guitar blankets, and this was the only one I could find. I was very pleased with the seller (Cjicollectiables, LLC)as the product arrive on time and came with a customer satisfaction garentee. Needless to say, I was very satified with the blanket throw, as was my brother. I would recommend the blanket as a unique quality gift for any guitar lover, and the seller as reliable.

2. Love, Devotion And Surrender

9. Welcome

Overall Welcome is an outstanding release. Quite possibly Santana's best to date. Really spectacular from beginning to end. If you're even mildly into Rock music you'll enjoy this CD.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Going Home. This is a great track!

Welcome Release Notes:

CD Track List Follows:

One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and youve got one of Santanas most impressive releases ever.

7. Light Of Life

I wish it werent the case but, its not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just cant force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Welcome. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

One word describes the CD Welcome from Santana... AWESOME!

First Act 8 Piece Drum Set MD8900091

Customer Review: drumset
Some of the tools and the instructions were not in the box, so we had to put it together on our own. The set itself is great, but it took us a while to put it together
Customer Review: decent set for beginner
Well worth the money--tone isn't great, but a super starter set. My 14 year old and 7 year old love it. Looked at lots of sets. This one was by far the least expensive and it looks great


This playfulness is captured on several tracks but none more so than on What A World (Babygirl). Splash's vocals ride the cool keys and guitar licks like a cloud hopping astronaut - "What a world, look around, baby everything you see, we could live in a world that would be so N-IC-E. What a world, babygirl, you could make it real for me, we could live in a world, you could be my L-O-V-E."

Plant Life - Time Traveler Album Review

The Los Angeles-based group is the brainchild of Jack Splash who put together a 12-piece brand to create a sound that mixes up old school hip hop, '70s soul and a whole load of funk. Think Prince meets Andre 3000 and The Ohio Players. Their second album is Time Traveler which seriously puts the FUN in funk and sparks feelings of joy, moments of involuntary body movement and tongue in cheek playfulness.

Funk music has always had its eccentric characters - George Clinton and Bootsy Collins immediately come to mind but you can also cite Isaac Hayes, Sly Stone and more recently Jamiroquai. But if you are gonna make funky music .. it is essential to have a fun and colorful nature. Plant Life carry on this tradition.

The mellowest moment comes from the final track, Fool For U, which has Splash's vocals laid over an old Isley Brothers track (Don't Say Goodnight). Splash smooths out his delivery here and croons about a fractured relationship. My favourite cut here is Sumthin About Her which you can't help but clap along to. The bass line will get your hips grinding and you head bopping - guaranteed! This is made more fun thanks to the cheeky syth stabs laid through out the chorus.

Content isn't too heavy on the brain, with wholesome love musings being the main serve. But this album isn't about finding deep and meaningful epiphanies - it's about wrapping your ears around some cool and body moving sounds. In the end Time Traveler takes the listener on a trip back to the origins of funk through to the synthesized sonics of the 80s and right into a new phase of musical expression. Get moving!
