(I can see the difference) 『There is a LOT of information on this disc. They explain how surround sound works and the best setups. They discuss HD video and how to get the optimal image from your TV.
Worth the price. It really helped me configure my HD TVs to look their best.』
(TV Alignment made easy) 『I was skeptic about purchasing this as I didn't really know if I needed it, but after buying it, I realized I should have had this since the day I went High-Def. It has many advanced alignment features for the most elite users, but in my case, I wanted to know the state of the equipment I bought and properly align it to get the best image and sound quality. This DVD does just that. I got a better understanding of the picture and what each of the components of the image I see represents. I would highly recommend anyone investing in this product even before you decide to buy your HDTV so you know what to look for as long as you already have a blu-ray player.』

If you only want some improvement, and if you only want to spend a little bit of time to get that improvement, go rent a THX DVD (like star wars), and use the THX calibration that can be found in the menu on the disc.』 『Created by home theater industry legend Joe Kane, HD Basics is the definitive High Definition home theater calibration tool.

This album was a beauty!" Billboard said "An impressive display of talent". "A whirlwind of emotionally invigorating song. He is bursting with excitement that will make you shiver, quiver, tremble and shake!" said Country Plus. About the album's first single Music Row magazine said "One listen and boom! It was love beyond a shadow of a doubt. It's the kind of song that makes you pound on your steering wheel and sing at the top of your lungs. Our favorite kind." Featuring the hits "Boom!

In stock soon. Order now to get in line. First come, first served. IPhone 3G used's review ("The Thought Chapter" A whole new Level of Sound and Lyrycs) 『The Album title says it all; "The Thought Chapter" is a new level of sound and lyrics.
From the first track "Figured Out" you can tell Color Theory has taken it to a new level and it tells you what the whole album will be like.
I know once you listen to the album, you will have a hard time choosing your favorite track.
Now to the songs: 1. Figured Out - This song tells you what the album will be like. If Color Theory had o choose the first single.... this is the one. One of my favorites and I'm sure it will be one of yours.
2. Zero Crossing - One of the songs Brian gave us on MySpace. You will like it, especially if you never heard it before.
3. We're Not Getting Any Younger - This is the song I was looking forward to and it did not disappoint.
4. Hypothetically - A very thoughtful song. My favorite song of the album.
5. If Not Now When - This was one of the first songs we heard on his website and MySpace. It finally has a home!
6. I Should've Kissed You - starts like a classic Color Theory song; Acoustic piano and Brian's great voice. Then to what I like to call "Color Theory's new sound". By the way, this song plays like it should be a theme song for a movie. I mean how many of us have been there?
7. Behind the Rhine - Another song Brian gave the fans as an early taste of what the album was going to be like.
8. Photobooth (Death Cab for Cutie) - One of many you will find yourself singing along.
9. I Stand By My Mistakes - Almost like a makeover from the original release. You won't be disappointed.
10. Pins and Needles - A great song! It has that acoustic feel. It will be one of your favorites.
11. If It's My Time to Go - WOW, deep! I keep finding myself singing along.
12. Our Shadow - The last song of the album and not because it's a bad song. It's just that there is always a last song. You will not be disappointed. The Piano solo is perfect.
If you are like me and need lyrics? Go to [...] and download the lyrics.
I never thought Color Theory will give me a new favorite album... Boy was I wrong.
Enjoy The Thought Chapter!

IPhone 3G used's review (Cheap Trick - Sophmore Slump) 『Cheap Trick's second album would contain the studio version of the song "I Want You To Want Me". The song would go on to become one of the band's biggest hits a few years later when it was released on the "Live At Budakon" album, but here it did not do much for the band. "In Color" suffers from a bit of a sophomore slump. I don't think that most of the songs are nearly as clever as the ones contained on the band's debut album, and it is just generally not as good. There are a few great songs here though. "Southern Girls" has always been one of my favorites. "Hello There" and "Clock Strikes Ten" are also good ones, although not quite as energetic as the live versions found on "Budakon". The rest is all rather average Cheap Trick with is not necessarily a bad thing, but I think both the album that came before and after this one were better than "In Color".』
(Cheap Trick "In Color") 『I've been reading a lot of negative reviews about this album.I'm not sure why that is.This is a classic rock album!
When this album came out in 1977 it was huge,probably more so in the midwest,where Cheap Trick hail from.But none the less,it was an album that you'd find at most of your friends house's.Different cuts were being played on the radio,and so on...
This album is a much more melodic affair than their eponymous debut just a few months earlier and the songs have weathered the ravages of time much better than their first album.In fact,many people consider "In Color" Cheap Trick's first album,as their first release (Cheap Trick) didn't make much of an impact. I'll spare you the song by song narrative and just implore you to put the CD on and turn it up.You'll soon hear for yourself what all the clamor was about back in 1977!』
(Good, but too Polished) 『A damn fine album, from Cheap Trick, this is. Melodic, gritty, and just a rockin' good time. But, as with Cheap Trick, their sound remains too polished and pretty, in their studio work, and doesn't live up to the live material.』
(Cheap Trick at their best) 『Cheap Trick's second album, In Color, is track for track, their best album. While their self-titled debut and their next album, Heaven Tonight, have several great songs, every song on In Color is a winner. "Hello There", "Clock Strikes Ten", "Come On, Come On", and "Big Eyes" are outstanding anthems and would play an integral part of their breakthrough release, Live at Budokan. "Southern Girls" and "I Want You to Want Me" are great power pop tunes, chock full of memorable melodies and choruses, as the latter would become a huge hit single in a live version on the aforementioned Budokan. The remaining tracks; the energetic "You're All Talk", the dramatic "Downed", the poppy "So Good to See You", and "Oh Caroline", are also top notch. The remastered version includes several unreleased tracks including raw demos of "Southern Girls" and "Come On Come On" and a live cut of "You're All Talk" that is even more exciting than the original. Simply put, In Color is Cheap Trick at their best and is one of the best power pop albums ever. Highly recommended.』
(super sophmore) 『I have the old 10-track CD version of In Color, Cheap Trick's 2nd album (I had the gatefold LP back in the day of course). In Color can be easily overlooked because it falls between the band's incredible debut and the chart-topping Heaven Tonight. And to be honest, yes it's not as good as either of those two but Cheap Trick on a bad day is still one of the best bands around. In Color is a fantastic record, HIGHLY recommended to any Trickster. It's fun to hear the "lame" version of I Want You To Want Me, and In Color contains two of my all time favorite songs, Downed and Come On Come On. Southern Girls is also great. The lyrics to Downed get to me every time, I love the opening verse: I'm gonna live on a mountain Way down under in Australia Its either that or suicide Its such a strange strain on you 』 『Cheap Trick's second album (and second of '77!) doesn't exactly pick up where its classic, hard-edged debut left off; it was the "Power" and this is the "Pop." Their workaholic gigs as an unsigned Midwest bar band in the mid-'70s left them with an impressive backlog of original material, another batch of which forms the core ofIn Color. Though the band disdained producer Tom Werman's bubblegum-flavored touches, it was indeed the kinder, gentler Cheap Trick that Japanese audiences first took to their hearts at Budokan, with the rest of the world soon to follow. That approach is best exemplified by the evergreen "I Want You to Want Me" (which didn't become a hit untilLive at Budokan), here dolled up with a Fats Domino-flavored piano break. While Werman's poppy approach dilutes the band's wall-of-noise live bent, it also underscores their impressive individual musical talents: Rick Nielsen's manic riffing on "Big Eyes" and the album's other retro-burner, "Clock Strikes Ten"; Robin Zander's vocal multiple-personalities that range from the suicidal angst of "Downed" (surely a favorite of Trick admirer Kurt Cobain) through the sweet anticipation of "I Want You" to the world-weariness of "So Good to See You"; and the rhythm section of Tom Petersson and Bun E. Carlos anchoring everything (especially the delicious "Southern Girls") with a flawless wallop. This expanded edition features significantly upgraded audio quality, new notes and photos, and five bonus tracks: the unpredictable instrumental B-Side "Oh Boy"; 1975 demos of "Southern Girls" and the anthemic "Come On, Come On" that ably display just the "before" side of the producer argument; and live versions of "You're All Talk" and longtime show closer "Goodnight" recorded at L.A.'s Whiskey in 1977. No sophomore jinx here.--Jerry McCulley』
IPhone 3G used's review (One of My all-time favorites!) 『Way back in 1992 I first listened to Color Me Badd and ever since I have loved their music! What I like about them is their great voices and the cool variety of music mixed in with an urban feel. My favorite singer of the band is Mark Calderon. He has such a wonderful voice and I love the songs that he has a good amount of time singing in. If you love Color Me Badd or love to hear a band that you are not familiar with then I strongly recommend that your purchase this CD today!』
(color me brilliant) 『what can one say about this album other than wow. the raw sexual overtones and sheer vocal harmony is something that one gets to experance once in a life time. "i wanna sex you up" not only changed my life, it made my life.Mozart and bach step aside because there is a new defination of classical music and it is color me bad. hundreds of years when people look back at the 90's three words that will come to mind COLOR ME BAD.』
IPhone 3G used's review (i loved this cd) 『I dont care i freakin loved this cd. i really wanted them to have more cds after this one. Theres alot of good groups from the 90's that i wish were still around.』
(Their creativity slipped a bit on this one) 『Unfortunately, Color Me Badd's fourth album flopped badly, given that they moved to Epic after 3-4 albums with Giant. Their voices still sound good, but the creativity slipped a bit on this one. Some of the songs come off sounding directionless, and they sound so 1995 or 1996 to me, like something Celine Dion or Jessica Simpson could do with the ballads. They did a good uptempo song with Rodney Jerkins, during that heavy music time where he had up to 40 to 50 songs for artists within a 4 year period. But this album doesn't live up to the other three. However, Sam Watters has had some success lately with the songs he did on Jessica Simpson's albums (with Louis and his long last name) and he comes up with some very good stuff. Some of his songs are on this album too. I noticed that one of them shaved his formerly long locks for this album, but he looks good. CMB just didn't surprise me with this one.』
(Awakening is awesome!) 『This is CMB's final album not including the best of album that was realeased after the group went their separate ways in 1998. A friend of mine bought this CD when it first came out and I only listened to it once and wasn't impressed, but then a while later I put it in again to really give it a chance and I LOVED IT! It's my favorite album and I HIGHLY reccomend that you get it and I think you won't be disappointed. My friend wasn't convinced that she would like it, so I challenged her to listen to it 3 times from start to finish and that she'd change her mind, she listened to it and now she loves it too! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do! Maybe if we're lucky CMB will get back together and do a reunion album for all us die hard fans someday!』
(So Slept on...) 『This is by far Color Me Badd's best album. It was slept on mainly because Epic/Sony did not properly promote this album. Radio was not aware of this album (for the most part) and therefore this amazing talented group of men were ignored. If you were a CMB fan in the "I Wanna Sex You Up" days but fell off, I recommend that you pick up this album and get re-aquainted. My favorite song on this album is the hauntingly beautiful "Your Touch"...it should be...it was my wedding song! I can go on forever about this album and the group as a whole, but music speaks louder than words.』
(Color it their best!) 『"Awakening" is, without a doubt, the best, most emotional, most mature Color Me Badd album ever.With strong ballads like "Remember When," "Your Touch" and "Secret Lovers" and woofer workouts like "Farmer's Daughter" and "All the Way (Freaky Style)," this album truly showcases Sam Watters, Kevin Thornton, Bryan Abrams andMark Calderon's beautiful and unsurpassed blend of INCREDIBLE talent and deep emotion. A must-have for CMB fans, yes, but also for any R&B fan. If you are going to own only one Color Me Badd album, make it "Awakening."』
