Fossils, Rocks, and Minerals
I bought this above item for my grandson and had it shipped directly to him..He liked it.I have not seen it yet.

Terrific!
My son loves this book! It is so full of information, it is like three books in one! The pictures are fabulous on every page, and the information is thorough and interesting. We can sit in bed together and look at just one page forever until my son is ready to turn the page.I highly recommend this book for any child who is interested in geology and/or fossils. ...

BEST TOP ROPERS GUIDE EVER
I live right down the street fomr stoney point and have never seen as complete a route book as this.Oh sure there are more, but this is the most complete book on stoney point.Although some routes change constantly because of the sandstone shaleing, it still give a general description of the routes and some VERY helpful tips on climbing.I got past a 5 12a that I had been working on for 3 months thanks to this book. Highly reccommended.

Urban Greatness
How lucky we are to be so close to a great area for top roping.ChrisOwen is clear about the climbs and routes.He has great topos and lookingthrough other guides over the years proves that this is no small feat.Iam so glad I have this guide, almost as glad as I am that I have StoneyPoint.

Good Information
This book provides valuable information (topos and ratings) on all theclimbs at Stoney. Mostly TR and boulders with very few leads. I have yet tofind another book with descriptions of these climbs. The nice thing about aguide like this is the consistent ratings provided for all the routes.

A fun book.
Lots of information here about the actual climbs, nice diagrams with wellwritten, interesting and sometimes funny descriptions of the routes.Quiteextensive, especially for top-roping. ... Read more

More Great Music From Chris Rea
This CD is a little mellower than some of Chris' other stuff but still very much his sound and style. Great music to go with his very meaningful lyrics. If you like Chris Rea you won't be dissappointed.

Logic and Beyond
I happened to buy my first Chris Rea album at a Half Price Book Store and became a fan.The music is thoughtful, tuneful, off the beaten path."Espresso Logic" is the best.

Different version of Euro release
I have a German release of Espresso Logic which has a different track line-up and some completely different songs. The edition I have is all new material which I think makes it superior to the rehash of God's Great Banana Skin that the album here presents.
Nonetheless, Espresso Logic is a nice album in either form. You could say it's just more of the same from Chris Rea, and I have noticed that he uses the same riff again and again. The riff on Johnny Needs a Fast Car was used before on the songs Auberge and Just Wanna Be With You (from The Road to Hell). But it's a nice riff.
Chris always starts his albums well. The title track is a pleasant moody intro to the album, and Julia, the obvious single, is a strong pop song with an infectious drum line. On the Euro release, Julia only turns up later (beginning of side two on the LP version). Soup of the Day is more true blues, as are some of the latter songs (New Way and Stop, which are not on this version) The aforementioned Johnny Needs a Fast Car is a catchy piece, another one of my favorites.
God's Great Banana Skin and Miles is a Cigarette were repeated here from the 'Banana Skin album for some reason. If You Were Me is from Elton John's Duets album, probably included here just to please commercial listeners.

Rea continues to defy logic
Espresso Logic is different enough from his other CD's to keep yourattention, yet retains enough of the voice and guitar to continue to defineChris Rea as one of a kind.If you can listen to She Closed Her Eyeswithout a shiver and a sigh, you aren't paying attention.A must for fans,and a good place to start for the newcomer.

Rea still making strong records...
Espresso Logic finds Chris Rea taking life a little less serious than on his last two releases.The songs are generally more pop friendly and the lyrical commentary is brighter and more trival.Sometimes that doesn'twork to good effect, like on "Julia" for example.But Reamaintains his moments of moody atmospherics, such as the dream-like introto "Espresso Logic" and on "Miles is a Cigarette," bothbeing fine songs. Rea should have made the Top 40 on some format or anotherwith "Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea" and thespectacular riffery towards the end of that track.Much the same could besaid for "Johnny needs a Fast Car."If you only are familiarwith Rea's work through "The Road to Hell" and found that albuminteresting, it would be worth your while to track this one down. ...
