Free Music Notes for Martha Stewart Living: Spooky Scary Sounds For Halloween
Free Music Review: Big Let-Down
Hit: 2 Stars
First, let me say that I'm a big fan of both Martha's halloween ideas and Rhino Records (the label that released this CD). I was Very eager to hear what both of these talents combined could come up with. Sadly, both Martha & Rhino (names I Trusted) let me down. My two main complaints? 1. It's just a 5 minute loop!and 2. as another reviewer pointed out, this CD doesn't tell a story and take you from one scene to the next (because it's ONLY ONE SCENE- over & over). The reason I'm writing this review is in hopes that Martha with try again with a Vol.2. Martha, if you're out there: 60 minutes of many individual themes seemlessly segued (no looping!)
Free Music Review: Nothing new
Hit: 2 Stars
I did not have very high expectations for this CD when I purchased it and was, unfortunately, not surprised. Although the quality of the sound effects are good, this CD is simply nothing we haven't heard before. After hearing music of Midnight Syndicate CDs and using those at my annual Halloween party my standards have changed. Simple sound effects CDs like this seem almost too cliche to work on their own anymore.Free Music Review: this should be titled sounds for weenie halloween.

I think Martha should sing some sort of rap back up by a hard rock band. that'd be freakin weird. someone should remix this to a techno beat and use it at a rave!! WOO HOO!!! word to nickdFree Music Review: Texas reviewer's two stars was too kind.

I am not a fan of "ice queen" Martha Stewart, but my wife likes her, and since Martha does have a knack for creating seasonal "atmosphere" I thought this might be fun. Shame on Rhino for releasing swill like this, and on Stewart for allowing her name to be put on this. "Movie quality recording" indeed! Yes, the sound quality is fine, but that's not the real issue here.First of all, this is the most boring, i.e. non-scary, Halloween album I've ever heard. Secondly--and most "fatally"--not only is this repetitous, as the Texas reviewer pointed out; but it's actually nothing more than a four-minute recording "looped," i.e. repeated, ten times! Even the most unattentive listener should be able to pick up on this by no later than the third repetition. But even if they released the four-minute recording as a cheap CD single, and instructed you to just put your CD player on "repeat," it would still be a rip off that cannot be redeemed by Martha's caramel apple recipe included in the CD booklet. This is a small, but glaring, example of American commercialism at its "finest." This CD should be included as evidence at Martha's insider trading trial as a small-but-glaring example of the dishonest, money-grubbing, side of her.
Free Music Review: Very dissapointed

After reading her excellent Halloween book, I figured her Halloween CD would be worth owning. I always search for "different" Halloween CDs, but this was filled with the same old stuff.
Chains, moans, and spooky laughs... then more chains, moans and spooky laughs. Very dissapointing.
