Songs from the Last Century

Songs from the Last Century (1999) more music like this

by George Michael

Unlike many covers albums, Songs From the Last Century is a cohesive, enjoyable diversion. With the help of co-producer Phil Ramone, George Michael has crafted a warm, intimate album built around a small combo of piano, guitar, bass, and drums. Orchestras, big bands, harps, and on one occasion, a rock band augment the basic combo, yet the ...

What a Diff'rence a Day Makes!

What a Diff'rence a Day Makes! (1959) more music like this

by Dinah Washington

One of the more notorious albums in the history of vocal music, What a Diff'rence a Day Makes! is the lush session that bumped up Dinah Washington from the "Queen of the Blues" to a middle-of-the-road vocal wondress -- and subsequently disenfranchised quite a few jazz purists. Washington had been praised in the same breath as Holiday and ...

Best of the Verve Song Books: Love Songs (1956) more music like this

by Ella Fitzgerald

Are you one of those people who can't walk through the jazz section without mooning over the lavishly packaged and heart-droppingly expensive 16-disc Complete Ella Fitzgerald Song Books set? If so, you're not alone, and Verve knows it. So to keep you from bemoaning your fate, the company has been releasing single-disc compilations drawn from the ...

Now

Now (2006) more music like this

by Javon Jackson

Tenor-saxophonist Javon Jackson's Now is a bit surprising, being a modern soul-jazz set rather than hard bop, with Jackson (who normally hints strongly at Joe Henderson) sounding close at times to Grover Washington, Jr. Actually, other than two throwaway R&B vocal tracks, the music is quite rewarding. While some of the structures are simple, ...

Standards

Standards (1961) more music like this

by Grant Green

In 1998, Blue Note released several CDs of previously unavailable (at least domestically) material from its prime years under the title of Standards. Some are not up to the level of the label's best output, but this outing is a definite exception. Guitarist Grant Green is heard in prime form in a sparse trio with bassist Wilbur Ware and drummer Al ...

Applause!

Applause! (1995) more music like this

by Danny Wright

Fifth in the "Black and White" series of popular film and Broadway material, this latest release from Danny Wright is romantic piano at its best. Highlights include current hits as "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" from the Disney film "The Lion King," "As If We Never Said Good-Bye" from Andrew Lloyd Webber's latest Broadway triumph Sunset Boulevard ...

Music, Martinis, and Memories

Music, Martinis, and Memories (195?) more music like this

by Jackie Gleason

The arrangements on Music, Martinis, and Memories are really very simple: massed violins play the melody while Bobby Hackett's trumpet flits around the edges, or sometimes Hackett takes the lead over a bed of swelling strings. The music sets a romantic mood, but compared to the arrangements of Percy Faith or Les Baxter, Gleason is plain vanilla. ...

The Complete Verve Studio Master Takes (2005) more music like this

by Billie Holiday

One of the first box sets for completists only, 1993's ten-disc The Complete Billie Holiday on Verve 1945-1959 was considered nearly a necessity by anyone interested in jazz vocals. Verve returned to the catalog 12 years later with a much tighter, much smarter collection: The Complete Verve Studio Master Takes. Encompassing six discs, the set ...

Sings Sweet Songs for Swingers (1958) more music like this

by Ella Fitzgerald

Recorded just before and after the period that she made the George and Ira Gershwin Songbook, Ella Fitzgerald is in fine form on this obscure LP, performing a dozen standards. Although two songs are by Harold Arlen, the composers were in most cases less prolific than the ones she saluted in her songbook series. Ella is backed by a large ...

Tenorlee (1977) more music like this

by Lee Konitz

This CD reissue (which adds new versions of "The Gypsy" and "'Tis Autumn" to the original nine-song program) is a bit unusual in that altoist Lee Konitz exclusively plays tenor. Featured in an intimate trio with pianist Jimmy Rowles and bassist Michael Moore, Konitz explores ten superior standards from the swing era plus a brief unaccompanied ...

Come What May (2001) more music like this

by Paula West

On her third CD, singer Paula West demonstrates that she isn't adverse to risk taking, which is a rather refreshing idea for a young performer. With a soulful voice, a great range, and the ability to get the most out of each set of lyrics, this confident singer seems capable of taking on any song in which she takes an interest. Although the ...

Spotlight on Nat King Cole [Great Gentlemen of Song] (1944) more music like this

by Nat King Cole

Part of a Capitol reissue series called, "Great Ladies And Gentlemen Of Song," and Spotlight On...Nat King Cole is a 18-track compilation that, for once, eschews the over-familiar Cole hits in favor of pop standards originally strewn across several of his late '50s and early '60s albums, plus a couple of previously unreleased Cole Trio recordings. ...

I Remember You (2002) more music like this

by Chris McNulty

In the 21st century, there are all kinds of jazz singers to choose from. Some are totally conventional (Diana Krall, Jane Monheit), some are adventurous (Kitty Margolis, Claire Martin, Karrin Allyson), and some are downright radical (Ann Dyer). Chris McNulty isn't among the more challenging or left-of-center vocalists in the jazz world; no one ...

The most elegant of the sirens calling American troops back home in the mid- to late '40s, Jo Stafford reached Your Hit Parade many times with the songs -- "You Belong to Me," "I Remember You," "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" -- war wives and girlfriends must have been singing along with as they awaited the grand homecoming. She possessed a winning ...

The Best of Helen O'Connell on Capitol (2003) more music like this

The Best of Helen O'Connell on Capitol covers less than three years in the career of Helen O'Connell, the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra vocalist who rivalled Anita O'Day as one of the most powerful female singers of the swing era. Her period with Capitol covered the early '50s and included only a few hits -- her trad versions of "Would I Love You (Love ...
