Feels So Good
(1977)

by
Chuck Mangione
Due to the title cut, this was a huge seller when it originally came out. Reissued on CD, this set from flügelhornist Chuck Mangione (which helped give guitarist Grant Geissman some fame) is actually stronger from the jazz standpoint than Mangione's subsequent dates. The leader has some good solos, as does Geissman and saxophonist Chris Vadala, ...

Children of Sanchez
(1978)
more music like this
by
Chuck Mangione
Thanks to the Latin-inflected title track, Children of Sanchez became another huge hit for Chuck Mangione. The title song even earned him a Grammy for Best Pop Instrumental Performance, and serious jazz listeners will spot a problem with that award -- it was for pop, not jazz. That, of course, is an accurate assessment of Mangione's music, since ...

by
Chuck Mangione
A&M's Best of Chuck Mangione highlights ten of the flugelhornist's popular recordings from the '70s including "Feels So Good," "Children of Sanchez," and "Chase the Clouds Away." As budget-line collections, this one is decent, especially if you're only looking for "Feels So Good." Al Campbell, All Music Guide

Land of Make Believe

by
Chuck Mangione With the Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra
Though much less expansive than Mangione's other Mercury concerts (only 37 minutes on a single CD or LP), Land of Make Believe is the most successful of the lot, a winning combination of attractive tunes, big-thinking orchestrations, just enough jazz content, and a genuinely felt sense of idealism. Here there is no dead weight; all of the material ...

Chase the Clouds Away
(1975)
more music like this
by
Chuck Mangione
On Chase the Clouds Away, Chuck Mangione began to move toward the pop-oriented style that would provide the foundation for his breakthrough in 1977 with Feels So Good. Although he had demonstrated slight pop leanings on his earlier records, they were primarily in a straight jazz vein. Here, he surrendered to the warm, rich sounds of his flugelhorn ...

Everything for Love

Chuck Mangione
Chuck Mangione, the famed flugelhornist and trumpeter fills his first recording of the 21st century with some wonderfully subdued love songs whose subtle, intimate qualities may surprise those of his fans who best know his boisterous pop hits. More than simply expressing a romantic boy-girl kind of love, Mangione is playing gentle, atmospheric ...

by
Chuck Mangione
Armed with just his "Feels So Good" quintet and occasionally a couple of brass players, Mangione's more grandiose ambitions are pretty much behind him on his final A&M release. The emphasis is almost entirely on spinning pretty tunes for his new mass audience without alienating or challenging it much. Not that this collection is completely ...

An Evening of Magic, Live at the Hollywood Bowl

more music like this
by
Chuck Mangione
Recorded at the height of Chuck Mangione's fame when "Feels So Good" was still busting up the charts, this double-LP set attempts to recapture the dynamism of his earlier live albums but falls short on a few counts. For one thing, the sound gives the listener no idea of what it was like to be in the audience that evening; there are only fleeting ...

Main Squeeze

by
Chuck Mangione
More and more a creature of the studio, Mangione employs a coterie of '70s New York session players on an album that wears its make-out-music intentions right on its velvet sleeve. All of the titles reflect some aspect of a love affair; the playing is intricate but highly controlled and not terribly exciting. Oddly enough, Chuck effectively ...

The Feeling's Back

more music like this
by
Chuck Mangione
Chuck Mangione laid low throughout much of the '90s, perhaps the end result of a disappointing string of albums for Columbia during the '80s. He returned to the road in 1997 and evidently it was a positive experience, since he returned to the studio the following year to cut The Feeling's Back. For all intents and purposes, The Feeling's Back is a ...

The Pop installment in Rhino's Billboard Top Contemporary Jazz series concentrates on jazzy pop-crossover hits and tracks popular on smooth jazz radio. Complaints from jazz purists regarding simplicity aside, the main problem with the compilation is that it covers too large a span of time -- the first six tracks date from the '60s and '70s, while ...

Flugelhornist Chuck Mangione became a household name during the 1970s and '80s due to some pop hits, but this LP (now out-of-print) actually contains his finest playing.

This two-LP set is an unusual Chuck Mangione record. Taken from a marathon live concert, the flügelhornist is featured with a big band. The first album has fairly typical performances (including versions of "Legend of the One-Eyed Sailor" and "Hill Where the Lord Hides"), but it is the second half that is most notable. Mangione performs such ...

This quick follow-up to Chase the Clouds Away was designed as sort of a portrait of the bustling Mangione family home (Bellavia being his mother's maiden name). Certainly there is more energy on tracks like "Listen to the Wind," the big band streaks of "Torreano," and the appropriately revolving riffs of "Carousel" than on the previous record, ...
