The Movie Album

The Movie Album (2003) more music like this

by Barbra Streisand

The idea of Barbra Streisand making an album of movie songs is a no-brainer; as annotators Jay Landers and Richard Jay-Alexander point out, she has already recorded over 50 songs written for motion pictures on her 59 previous albums. In fact, the only real challenge may be a marketing one for Columbia Records, since potential customers simply may ...

But Beautiful: The Best of Shirley Horn on Verve (2005) more music like this

by Shirley Horn

When vocalist/pianist Shirley Horn resurfaced after a long spell away from the recording studio and signed with Verve Records in 1987, the jazz world at large discovered what many of Horn's devoted followers already knew: that she is a huge talent and one of the great jazz singers to follow in the footsteps of legends like Sarah Vaughan and Billie ...

Music for Lovers

Music for Lovers (2007) more music like this

by Nancy Wilson

The Music for Lovers series from EMI and Blue Note spotlights the balladic nature and romantic side of artists who have recorded for its associated labels. Nancy Wilson may not get her due as a jazz vocalist, but as a romantic balladeer she has few peers, with a voice that communicates romance and sensuality. The 12 selections come from her best ...

Stan Getz Plays for Lovers

Stan Getz Plays for Lovers (2006) more music like this

by Stan Getz

While this set of ballads could easily pass for a contemporary smooth jazz collection, tenor saxophonist Stan Getz's impeccable phrasing, full of easy, fluid upward glides, always with that gorgeous, honey-tinged, airy, and endlessly romantic horn tone, makes it something else again. With selections ranging from the early '50s through his twilight ...

The Complete Village Vanguard Sessions (1977) more music like this

by Art Pepper

The Complete Village Vanguard Sessions is an exhaustive box set that contains all 45 takes from Art Pepper's legendary stay at the Village Vanguard. Any serious Pepper fan will find a lot to treasure here, but the sheer size of the set makes it intimidating for less dedicated listeners. Leo Stanley, All Music Guide

Bill Evans for Lovers (2004) more music like this

by Bill Evans

As part of Verve's For Lovers series, pianist Bill Evans is spotlighted on 11 tracks recorded between 1962 and 1970. This romantic set of standards aptly highlights Evans' melancholic light touch, especially on "But Beautiful," "Spring Is Here," "My Foolish Heart," "Lover Man," and "If You Could See Me Now." Stan Getz, Ron Carter, Elvin Jones, ...

Award Winner: Stan Getz (1957) more music like this

by Stan Getz

Award Winner reunites Stan Getz with his mid-'50s right-hand men pianist Lou Levy and bassist Leroy Vinnegar, plus drummer Stan Levey, who sat in with the trio on 1956's The Steamer. Not surprisingly, it's quite similar to that effort, as the quartet keeps thing alternately cool, swinging ballads, and simmering, low-key grooves. It's the sound ...

Plays for Lovers (2003) more music like this

by Blue Mitchell

In the '60s, Prestige launched its Plays for Lovers series with LPs by Miles Davis, John Coltrane, and others. The concept was jazz as romantic mood music -- collections of previously released material that are dominated by ballads and emphasize a player's more lyrical side. Fantasy has long since acquired the Prestige catalog, and in the 2000s, ...

Horns of Plenty, Vol. 2 (2003) more music like this

by Stan Kenton

The second of three double CDs in this series has a disc from Stan Kenton's 1961 Mellophonium Orchestra (heard during two different engagements) and a concert from the University of North Texas Neophonic Orchestra under the direction of Leon Breeden in 1966. Ironically the Kenton performances are mostly of standards and are concise while the ...

Keep It Simple (1995) more music like this

by Dick Haymes

This Audiophile CD combines two Dick Haymes sessions made under the direction of Loonis McGlohon. The first was done in October 1976 and the second in May 1978 when Haymes was almost 60. (The latter turned out to be his final visit to a recording studio before his death in 1980.) And unlikely as it seems, his voice was at its strongest on the ...

Priceless Jazz (1999) more music like this

by Betty Carter

GRP's Priceless Jazz is a mid-line collection that concentrates on Betty Carter's fine recordings for Peacock and ABC-Paramount during the late '60s. Although this disc could hardly be called definitive, it nevertheless offers many of her best cuts for the label, making this disc an excellent choice for neophytes and curious listeners -- it is ...

Jazz 'Round Midnight: Stan Getz (1960) more music like this

by Stan Getz

The owner of one of the most intimately romantic tenor sax sounds in jazz was a natural candidate for Verve's Late-Night series, and so this 14-track collection treats would-be-Lotharios to several candlelit samples from Verve's archives, the orchestras (and two cooing choirs) led by Claus Ogermam. Artists including Johnny Pate and Russ Garcia ...

Sessions (2000) more music like this

by Carolyn Maier

Carolyn Maier took a different road to reach a vocal career. She was trained as a classical jazz harpist and has a degree in harp performance. Singing, however, was not all that mysterious, as she started that at the tender age of four. Sessions is her second album and her first for Lee Lessack's LML label. Perhaps it's the harp training that ...

Solo Piano: Standards (2000) more music like this

by Chick Corea

Part two of Corea's solo piano series features standard tunes. There is a preponderance of Thelonious Monk music: "Monk's Dream," "Blue Monk," "Ask Me Now," and "'Round Midnight." Bud Powell, another piano legend whose music Corea has recorded and studied closely over the years, is represented by "Dusk in Sandi" and "Oblivion." The more ...
