Hey Eugene!

Hey Eugene! (2007) more music like this

by Pink Martini

It took Pink Martini a full decade -- their debut, Sympathique, came out in 1997; the follow-up, Hang on Little Tomato, was released in 2004; and now Hey Eugene! arrives in 2007 -- but they've finally perfected their particular good-time blend of cabaret pop, pre-"world music" international fare, golden-age Hollywood scores, and lounge-informed, ...

Greatest Hits of Brasil '66

Greatest Hits of Brasil '66 (1970) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66

Released along with a slew of other A&M greatest-hits collections, 1970's Greatest Hits takes listeners through a dozen Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 tunes from the albums Herb Alpert Presents through Crystal Illusions. Not all of these were hits -- indeed, not all of them were singles -- and they are not representative of the wide range of Brazilian ...

Ultra-Lounge: Cocktails With Cole Porter

Ultra-Lounge: Cocktails With Cole Porter (2004) more music like this

by Various Artists

The Ultra Lounge series returns with Cocktails With Cole Porter, a collection of '50s and '60s renditions of songs Porter wrote in the '20s and '30s. For the most part, these songs made the transition into lounge territory intact; Nat King Cole's "Just One of Those Things," Ella Fitzgerald's "It's De-Lovely," Julie London's "My Heart Belongs to ...

Ultra-Lounge, Vol. 9: Cha-Cha De Amor (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

Cha-cha music at its Whitest and most easy listening-friendly, recorded for Capitol in the 1950s and 1960s by Dean Martin, Julie London, Billy May, Martin Denny, Les Baxter, Walter Wanderley, and a number of other performers who are only coming to light in the lounge revival. Yma Sumac, Perez Prado, and Tito Rodriguez add a little (a very little) ...

The Music from Peter Gunn [Bonus Tracks]

The Music from Peter Gunn [Bonus Tracks] (1959) more music like this

by Henry Mancini

This is not only a great CD but a key piece of jazz and pop music history. Back in 1958, Peter Gunn was one of the unexpected hits of the new television season, capturing the imagination of millions of viewers by mixing private eye action with a jazz setting. Essential to the character of private investigator Peter Gunn (Craig Stevens) was that ...

Easy Rhythms for Your Cocktail Hour

Easy Rhythms for Your Cocktail Hour (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

As spage age bachelor pad music goes, this is among the goofiest and edgiest. This 14-song survey is heavy on two aspects of the cocktail kitsch genre: then-futuristic, now-primitive synthesizer squawks (Richard Hayman, Dick Hyman, Perrey-Kingsley) and double entendre sexual innuedos. Sometimes that double entendre was vocal, as in Julie London's ...

by Ferrante & Teicher

Curb's Greatest Hits is a budget-line collection that contains Ferrante & Teicher's greatest hits, including "Theme [from The Apartment]," "Exodus," "Tonight," "Lisa," and "Midnight Cowboy," as well as five other tracks. It's a brief collection, but it gives a good sense of what the easy listening group was all about. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, ...

Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66

Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 (1966) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66

After bouncing around Philips, Atlantic, and Capitol playing Brazilian jazz or searching for an ideal blend of Brazilian and American pop, Sergio Mendes struck gold on his first try at A&M (then not much more than the home of Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass and the Baja Marimba Band). He came up with a marvelously sleek, sexy formula: dual ...

Music for a Bachelor's Den

Music for a Bachelor's Den (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

As space age bachelor pad music goes, these were among the most widely heard examples of the genre. Over half of these 15 cuts, in fact, were hit singles, including such smashes as "Quiet Village" (Martin Denny), "So Rare" (Jimmy Dorsey), "Moritat" (Dick Hyman, and later to be changed into "Mack the Knife" by Bobby Darin), "Yellow Bird" (Arthur ...

Look Around

Look Around (1968) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66

Sergio Mendes took a deep breath, expanded his sound to include strings lavishly arranged by the young Dave Grusin and Dick Hazard, went further into Brazil, and out came a gorgeous record of Brasil '66 at the peak of its form. Here Mendes released himself from any reliance upon Antonio Carlos Jobim and rounded up a wealth of truly great material ...

Today

Today (2001) more music like this

by Raul Malo

From the start, it was obvious that the Mavericks were comprised of a more interesting variety of flavors than most C&W hitmakers, and by the time they released Trampoline in 1998, the band had evolved from an eclectic country-accented outfit into an adventurous adult pop group willing to dip their toes into practically anything. So it shouldn't ...

Tara's Theme from Gone with the Wind/Jealousy (1997) more music like this

by Percy Faith

Two of Percy Faith's most popular albums from the early '60s, Tara's Theme from Gone with the Wind and Jealousy, were combined on this single-CD reissue by Collectables. Although the sound and the packaging could be a little better, this still is a fine way for collectors to pick up these two records on disc. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music ...

Breakfast at Tiffany's

Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961) more music like this

by Henry Mancini

This soundtrack to the movie adaptation of Truman Capote's novel Breakfast at Tiffany's is one of Henry Mancini's best. The pleasing blend of pop (the perennial "Moon River") and swing stays fresh over the album's 12 tracks and shows off Mancini's considerable writing and arranging skills. The cuts range from the layered, big-band mambo "Something ...

Four Rooms

Four Rooms (1995) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

The soundtrack to Four Rooms is a collection of kitschy cocktail music, performed by original practitioners like Esquivel, and revivalists like Combustible Edison. It's an enjoyable, if lightweight, album. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Mambo Sinuendo

Mambo Sinuendo (2003) more music like this

by Ry Cooder & Manuel Galbán

Mambo Sinuendo is a collaboration between Ry Cooder and Buena Vista alum (and formerly of many other groups as well) Manuel Galbán. The album attempts to catch an old style popularized in Cuba by Galbán, and was, surprisingly, never followed up on by anybody after Galbán. It's a guitar-based romp closely based in the pop/jazz crossovers of the ...

Cugi's Cocktails

Cugi's Cocktails (1963) more music like this

by Xavier Cugat

Contrary to the title, Cugi's Cocktails is no sleepy album of "cocktail music." It has all the elements a listener would expect of Xavier Cugat's first great stereo album: an agreeable theme, a dash of exotic flair, and all the bombast of the preceding half-decade of experimenting with high-fidelity stereo recording. "One Mint Julep" would have ...

Ultra-Lounge, Vol. 11: Organs in Orbit

Ultra-Lounge, Vol. 11: Organs in Orbit (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

The organ has a respected slot in the space age pop/lounge lineup, and Organs in Orbit gives the Hammond its due by featuring 18 cuts in the style, originally recorded for Capitol in the 1950s and 1960s. It's a long way from here to Jimmy Smith, and you should check any hopes for funkiness at the door. If you've got a yen for the inimitable ...

Classics, Vol. 18 (1987) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66

As an overview of Sergio Mendes in both of his A&M periods, the 1987-vintage CD Classics, Vol. 18 is a far more useful collection than the older Greatest Hits. Classics includes ten out of the twelve selections on Greatest Hits, replacing "Day Tripper" and "Night and Day" with "One Note Samba/Spanish Flea," "Bim Bom" and "Song of No Regrets" (a ...

Antigua (2005) more music like this

by Tom & Joy

It's clear that Tom & Joy's hearts are in Rio de Janeiro, but they are comfortable (and far better off) when they blend the bossa with a wide palate of acoustic songcraft. Antigua, easily the most highly promoted album of their career yet released (it gained U.S. distribution through Tommy Boy), is also their most ambitious -- and successful. ...

Crystal Illusions

Crystal Illusions (1969) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66

The sound and band that served Sergio Mendes well on Fool on the Hill remain intact on Crystal Illusions, with few modifications. Dave Grusin is right there with a lush, haunting orchestral chart when needed; Lani Hall is thrust further into the vocal spotlight, as cool and alluring as ever in Portuguese or English. Mendes remained on the lookout ...

Equinox

Equinox (1967) more music like this

by Sergio Mendes

Equinox continues the scrumptiously winning sound that Sergio Mendes cooked up in the mid-'60s, this time a bit more fleshed out with John Pisano's guitar, a slightly thicker texture, and even an imitation sitar (this was, after all, 1967). Again, the mix of American pop tunes old and new and Brazilian standards and sleepers is impeccable ...
