Great accent to my fan in my billiard room. Now I just need another for the light pull.

What would you need to be on to think this is a good album, or that AIC has a good album in the first place!!! You would have to be stoned! This album and the rest of AIC's catalog sound like the same exact song repeated 6-10 times an album. Wake up people, you own one AIC album you've heard em all.

This EP has been outdated for a decade with the release of Alice in Chains "Music Bank." All 4 songs can be found on that cheap 3 disc boxed set. With that being said, this is a really enjoyable, more mellow, acoustic sounding CD that goes about 17 minutes. Its short and sweet, you can drift off to sleep with how mellow songs like Brother and Am I Inside are. Got Me Wrong was on MTV and nearly every radio station in its hayday. In fact Got Me Wrong is still on alternative stations, old and new. There's a nice beat to it. Right Turn is really enjoyable, the voices of Chris Cornell (Soundgarden) and singer Layne Stately blend really well. Its a good duet. For the cheap price of $7, you get some great music, but again this is a 2008 rerelease of an outdated EP. Only buy this if you don't have $30 to spend on Music Bank or if you are a collector that needs every Alice in Chains release.

I used to have this, but to be honest I was tired of it after 24 hours, or at least the one song "Got Me Wrong". I had to play it again to see if 17 years made the difference, or not. It still isn't a classic, but I have been able to find some good in this after all. "Brother" sounds good, and "Wrong Turn" is pretty good. "Am I Inside?" has it's moments, but "Got Me Wrong" I don't think I'll ever like the song again. It's a mind tripper all right, but it turns bad with the key change, or at least in my opinion. This is just a 4 song e.p. to give the audience something new until "Dirt" was completed.

3 1/2 Impressive acoustic contrast to their grunge debut Facelift, Sap was four memorable sing-along harmonies exploring the softer, emotional textures AIC would revisit again with JOF.

As much as I love Alice in Chains's full-length albums, I think their EP releases are the best evidence of the band's versatility, talent, and soul. Case in point is the 1992 EP Sap. Coming after the unrelentingly heavy Facelift (and before the equally heavy Dirt), this brief collection of mostly laid back material was not what I was expecting. The EP kicks off with the almost acoustic song "Brother". It's very mellow, but as gloomy as anything Alice in Chains has ever written. Next is "Got Me Wrong", one of my favorite AIC songs and one that is a nice, melodic counterpart to Dirt's "Would". The next song - "Right Turn" - is a grunge fan's dream with Soundgarden's Chris Cornell trading lines with Layne Stayley. It's beautiful and depressing at the same time. The disc's supposedly final track - "Am I Inside" - is an utterly depressing almost acoustic song. It is followed by a bizarre untitled track that sounds like something off of Faith No More's Angel Dust album. It's a frenzied, mood shattering way to end things. If you're an Alice in Chains fan, you need to own Sap. It bridges the gap between two of their best full-length albums, and is more impressive with just 5 songs than full albums from many other 90's bands.

Bought it because of Johnny Cash. Would not give it as a gift to my worst enemy....

I have looked high and low for this movie for years. I'm the little kid writing on the chalkboard in the beginning of the movie. No one anywhere had this movie but anyway the movie with the CD is a great combo. If you haven't seen any of Johnny Cash's films you got to see this one. June Carter Cash and Claud Aikens is in it also. This film was a memorable moment in my life. Johnny, June and Claude were all very down to earth nice people. Thanks Amazon!

I am biased as i am a big Johnny Cash Fan but I enjoyed this show. The acting isn't all that bad.It is a light movie you don't have to think too hard to enjoy it.If you don't like Johnny you will not like this movie.

Because I'm such a pool freak, I can get into any billiards movie. Although this movie had a decent plot, it didn't show as much pool playing footage as I expected. Definitely NOT a "Pool Hall Junkies" type movie.

Great film. Johnny Cash as the Baron. Great story and great acting by Cash. If you love Cash buy this

A fun CD which will appeal to the sports lover, music lover and history lover in equal measure. The idea is simple. "Play The Game" contains 17 American and British songs, each one about a different sport. The songs were written between 1862 and 1913. Listeners are likely to be drawn to the songs which illustrate their favourite sports. Many golfers will recognise the plight of the player in "Caddie", written in 1900, who pleads with his caddie, ever more desperately, to 'get me right out of this mess'. Enthusiasts of British heritage will enjoy "The Eton Boating Song", the song of Eton College, the elite British school where Lady Diana's children, Princes William and Harry, were educated. The CD also includes a real historical curiosity : "A Hunting Morning" is a setting of a rare poem by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes. The liner notes contain an article on the history of sport, a background note on each song plus short biographies of the composers and lyricists. The CD would make an unusual Christmas or birthday gift for a sports-loving friend. Strongly recommended! Tom Dawson, Pimlico, London, UK.

This game is really fun to play. My wife and I really enjoy it. Thanks.

I wasn't very happy the way the product was sent. It didn't have any directions or packaging. I was very disappointed.

This is probably the best billards gameif you don't have a real pool table. The graphics are great and the actual gamplay is very close to the real thing. The only downside is a lot of the training lessons make you be so precise it takes a good half an hour to finish one! Great game, but get a real table for the full experience, there is no perfect replacment for one.

I was expecting better. I'm a big fan of Yahoo! pool and was hoping this was like that but sadly it's no where near as good. Sure, the graphics are great but that's the only thing good about this game. The first bad thing I found was the camera. There's really no good camera angle you can use for the entire game. Often times there wont be any good camera angel for a shot. You'll have you blindly shoot and hope the ball goes where you want it to. If you move the camera too far away you wont be able to tell the balls appart. Also, the balls fly around the table very unrealistically. Is there grease on the table? The music in this game will have you falling to sleep. Best to mute your TV and turn your own music on. Overall, it's a good game if you don't have a computer or real pool table. But if you have either of those avoid this game.Graphics: 3.0Sound: 2.0Control: 2.5Fun Factor: 2.5

This is as close to really playing pool as you can get in a video game. The tutorial is complete and very informative. You learn the esentials of english, bank shots, etc... So if you can't afford a pool table or don't have the room for one buy this game, and you can even apply the techniques in real life the next time you head to the pool hall.
