Barbra Streisand
An album containing many of the songs used in Barbra Streisand's TV special of the same name, My Name Is Barbra followed the general outline of two of the three sections of the show. The first side was a concept set of songs about childhood and growing up that allowed Streisand, in the songs "I'm Five" and "Sweet Zoo," to take a comic approach for ...

Sonny Rollins
Big Brass is an appropiate name for the large ensemble arranged and conducted by Ernie Wilkins that accompanies the huge sound of Sonny Rollins. The energy within the leader's gospel-flavored shout "Grand Street" is considerable, while a swinging but no less powerful version of George & Ira Gershwin's "Who Cares" features a choice solo by ...

Dream with Dean/Everybody Loves Somebody

more music like this
by
Dean Martin
The combination of these two Dean Martin albums on a single CD is logical enough; after all, they were released originally on the same day. But they are actually a curious mismatch: one of Martin's best albums ever and one of his worst. In March 1964, Martin cut Dream With Dean, subtitled "The Intimate Dean Martin," a collection of standards done ...

A profile of a rugged Dean Martin by the fireplace with a cigarette adorns the jacket of this very interesting concept album. As Stan Cornyn's liner notes explain, "his longtime accompanist" on piano, Ken Lane, with "three of Hollywood's most thoughtful rhythm men" -- those being drummer Irv Cottler, bassist Red Mitchell, and guitarist Barney ...

Unforgettable [K-Tel]

by
Various Artists
Unforgettable bills itself as a collection of "18 great love songs of the '50s." Unfortunately, only four of its tracks are original recordings, while the rest fall under the infamous liner note disclaimer "All selections are new stereo recordings performed by the original artist or one or more members of the original group." So, while Nat King ...

Ray Gelato
Ray Gelato, a fine singer and tenor saxophonist who is one of England's main leaders in the retro-swing movement, sounds very close to Louis Prima in many spots on this CD, particularly on "Josephine" and a medley of "Angelina" and "Zooma Zooma." He also closely emulates Nat "King" Cole on "I've Got a Way With Women" and "L-O-V-E," bases his ...

Perry Como
For good or bad, the European copyright limitation of 50 years makes albums like this British compilation possible. After serving as boy singer with Ted Weems' orchestra, Perry Como struck out on his own in 1943 in the wake of Frank Sinatra's solo success. After a relatively slow start, he hit his stride in 1945, topping the charts with "Till the ...

Gerry Mulligan was only 19 in 1946 when he joined Gene Krupa's band, playing a bit of alto and tenor sax, but primarily serving as an arranger. But the Verve LP Gene Krupa Plays Gerry Mulligan Arrangements wasn't made until 1958, long after Mulligan went out on his own. Although there are solo features built into the framework of each piece, ...

Jim Galloway's Wee Big Band has been in existence for 30 years, but surprisingly, Blue Reverie is only its third recording. The orchestra (which, despite its name, is a full-size, 17-piece jazz ensemble) is as swing-oriented as its leader. On Blue Reverie, in addition to a few newer arrangements, vintage charts by Jimmy Mundy, Duke Ellington, ...
