I love the "mash-up" of an old Elvis tune that I heard on the radio a few months ago. Anyone know the name? It's a great tune.

The Las Vegas show, which features an international cast of 60 acrobats performing aerial gymnastics, extreme sports and urban, freestyle dance, has been a roaring success.

I've seen it twice - two thumbs up. ;)

Just saw the Cirque show of this "new" Beatles music 2 weeks ago in Las Vegas and, if you like the Beatles, you'll probably like this show -- especially so if you're a Cirque de Soleil fan.

I made sure I had a copy as soon as it came out, and I'm listening to it now.

Almost anything using Beatles recordings as its source is bound to be worth a listen, and I'd say this is well worth giving a try. A "mash-up" is a recording taking pieces from different songs and putting them together. So you may hear the lyrics of one song over the instruments of another, a "medley" of songs, etc.

It's very inventive, and well done. "Old" songs are given a fresh perspective. This does not sound to me like a cheap, classless "cash-in," although I expect some to level the charge. I'm glad it was made, and glad I bought it!

I hesitate to give it the "top" rating, though, as it IS really a soundtrack and perhaps not really meant to be listened to as a stand-alone work. I can see listening to it as "background" music while doing chores, paying bills, etc. rather than something I would sit and listen to carefully over and over. I hope a DVD of the Cirque de Soleil (sp?) performance, with soundtrack, is released. THAT would be the "complete" work, and apparently the way the songs were originally intended to be heard.

Stones be damned, the Beatles were the greatest rock and roll band in history. Most innovative, most revolutionary.

I'm thinking of buying every Beatles album, ripping them, isolating every musical note and spoken phenome and combining them however I want. Throw on a little post production and you can have the Beatles singing or saying anything. Maybe my first release will be "Beatles: Gangsta' Rap".

Really, really, really cool stuff. Sir George Martin was the perfect producer for the Beatles.
