Funny Lady [Arista]

Funny Lady [Arista] (1975) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Barbra Streisand is not known for singing standards, so the chief virtue of this soundtrack to the sequel to Funny Girl is hearing her singing songs like "Am I Blue." William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

The Genius of Ray Charles (1959) more music like this

Smoke Gets in Your Eyes: Best of Dinah Washington

Smoke Gets in Your Eyes: Best of Dinah Washington (1999) more music like this

by Dinah Washington

Dinah Washington could sing any song and make it sound like everybody's life depended on it. An awe-inspiring jazz vocalist with roots in the R&B scene of the 1940s, she gradually evolved into a pop star during the '50s and would have matured marvelously were it not for an accidental prescription drug overdose that took her out at the age of 39 on ...

The Collection: Stardust/One for the Road/Honeysuckle Rose [Bonus Tracks]

The Collection: Stardust/One for the Road/Honeysuckle Rose [Bonus Tracks] (2004) more music like this

by Willie Nelson

On the one hand, it's difficult to argue against any collection of three albums that begins with Stardust even if the other two don't live up to its promise. Still, the fact that these three recordings were already issued together once might have been enough. Here are the three discs remastered, and Sony Legacy claims bonus tracks. And yes, there ...

Ricky/Ricky Nelson (2001) more music like this

by Rick Nelson

Ricky Nelson's first two albums and assorted singles, recorded when he was 17 years old, are triumphs of taste over experience. As chronicled in James Ritz's liner notes, Nelson turned to music more or less on a dare, and while he could carry a tune, he had little personality as a singer when he started, relying for his popularity more on his ...

Rock Billy Boogie/Bad Boy (2001) more music like this

by Robert Gordon

Although the Stray Cats received most of the credit and marquee attention for the late-'70s rockabilly revival, hep cat Robert Gordon was just as responsible for its short but potent comeback. These two albums, now conveniently combined into a single 23-track CD, were the only two of his four for RCA to feature guitarist Chris Spedding, who took ...

Gold (2007) more music like this

by Dinah Washington

Dinah Washington's digital discography is riddled with compilations that brandish the word "Gold," as in "Golden Classics," "Golden Hits," "Golden Songs," "Golden Greats," "Golden Stars," and "Goldies." All that glitter, however, does not necessarily describe or guarantee well-produced collections. Happily, Verve's 2007 double-disc Washington ...

Flappers, Vamps & Sweet Young Things (1990) more music like this

by Various Artists

Valuable as an index of theatrically inclined or jazz-addled female pop vocalists, this rosy little compilation mingles famous and relatively obscure singers in a sequence of pleasantly old-fashioned performances recorded from 1924 to 1931. Jane Green, Helen Kane, Annette Hanshaw, the Brox Sisters, Ruth Etting, Zelma O'Neal, and Esther Walker come ...

The music of three Sackville LPs is reissued on full in this double-CD set, a 1979 solo session by pianist Sammy Price and a pair of duet albums with trumpeter Doc Cheatham from 1976 and 1979. Cheatham, who was 71 at the time of the earlier date, was just beginning to emerge as a major soloist and in fact is in much more confident form on the ...

Fabulous Les Paul & Mary Ford (1965) more music like this

by Les Paul & Mary Ford

Since Columbia didn't have access to any of Paul and Ford's monster hits, they made do on their budget Harmony line with this collection of stray album tracks, near-hits, and failed singles. Clearly some of the old zip is missing from much of Paul's Columbia music, a lot of which is taken at glacial tempos. But his guitar obligatos to Ford's ...

When he wasn't busy working with other people, Riddle cut several ...

Rock Billy Boogie (1979) more music like this

by Robert Gordon

Robert Gordon's first album without Link Wray showed no diminution of his appeal -- indeed, lead guitarist Chris Spedding's somewhat more polished approach to licks first explored 20 some years earlier by Scotty Moore or Cliff Gallup (of Gene Vincent's Blue Caps) come off well in the studio, and fit in with the somewhat more polished sound this ...
