The Great American Songbook [Box Set] (2005) more music like this

by Rod Stewart

A month after Rod Stewart's fourth volume of his ongoing (some might say never-ending) Great American Songbook series was released, all four of the albums were rounded up in a cardboard box and released as The Great American Songbook. Apart from a biographical essay from Alan Light and a couple of photographs, there is no new material here -- even ...

This Guy's in Love

This Guy's in Love (2003) more music like this

by Steve Tyrell

When Steve Tyrell's version of "The Way You Look Tonight" found its way onto the soundtrack for 1991's Father of the Bride, chances are he had no idea that it would eventually lead to a second career incarnation as a pop/jazz vocalist. After years of working in the shadows as a songwriter and producer, Tyrell suddenly found himself in the ...

Unforgettable

Unforgettable (1998) more music like this

by Joe Pass

Here is a second brace of solo Pass tracks from the sessions that have already yielded Songs for Ellen. The ambience is ruminative and extremely intimate; the menu consists entirely of much-explored standards at mostly unrelieved slow tempos. Several notes are not cleanly struck, but the musical imagination that previously yielded several solo ...

Isn't It Romantic

Isn't It Romantic (1984) more music like this

by Charlie Byrd Trio

On this enjoyable set, Charlie Byrd's trio performs five classics by Rodgers & Hart and numbers by Ray Noble, Irving Berlin, Hoagy Carmichael, George Gershwin, and Jimmy Van Heusen. All of the songs are quite familiar, but Byrd (along with his brother Joe on bass and drummer Chuck Riggs) makes such potential warhorses as "Cheek to Cheek," "Thou ...

Isn't It Romantic: The Standards Album

Isn't It Romantic: The Standards Album (2005) more music like this

by Johnny Mathis

Although a good number of Johnny Mathis' performances have become standards in the pop songbook, and he's recorded hundreds of classic love songs during his career, there were still a few he'd left behind -- even after nearly half a century of singing. Isn't It Romantic: The Standards Album, his first non-Christmas recording of the millennium, ...

A Night Out With Verve

A Night Out With Verve (2000) more music like this

by Various Artists

A Night Out With Verve highlights five decades of remarkable jazz taken from the Verve catalog, spread out over four discs titled "Wining," "Dining," "Dancing," and "Romancing." This budget-priced box set includes 65 performances from jazz luminaries including Oscar Peterson, Sonny Rollins, Michel Legrand, Sarah Vaughan, Stan Getz, Louis Armstrong ...

Sings the Rodgers and Hart Song Book

Sings the Rodgers and Hart Song Book (1956) more music like this

by Ella Fitzgerald

The second of Ella Fitzgerald's famed Songbook series features her singing 34 of the best songs co-written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart. The arrangements by Buddy Bregman for the string orchestra and big band only border on jazz but she manages to swing the medium-tempo numbers and give sensitivity to the ballads. With such songs as "You ...

The Michael Feinstein Anthology (2002) more music like this

by Michael Feinstein

With selections drawn from three releases dating back to 1987 and up to his 1996 Gershwin collection, this anthology demonstrates not so much that Feinstein is a great singer, but that he is a kind of Barry Manilow for people with long memories. The appeal of the two artists is almost identical -- their arrangements lush and melodramatic, their ...

The Complete Ella Fitzgerald Song Books (1956) more music like this

by Ella Fitzgerald

This admittedly pricey -- but by all means mandatory -- Grammy Award-winning box set is the final word on the "songbooks" recorded by Ella Fitzgerald between 1956 and 1964. In order of their initial release, contained within are Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Cole Porter Song Book (1956), Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Rodgers & Hart Song Book (1956), Ella ...

When I'm Calling You (1994) more music like this

by Jeanette MacDonald & Nelson Eddy

Commonly listed under her name because she gets first billing, Living Era's When I'm Calling You is a collection of nine songs sung by soprano Jeanette MacDonald (1903-1965), eight by baritone Nelson Eddy (1901-1967), and five duets (tracks one, two, six, sixteen and seventeen) which is perhaps less than those who take the album title literally ...

Right Time, Right Place (1990) more music like this

by Gary Burton with Paul Bley

Although they have utilized the talents of some of the same musicians through the years (most notably Steve Swallow) and both recorded for ECM, vibraphonist Gary Burton and pianist Paul Bley had not recorded before this 1990 Copenhagen session. The combination generally works, with some of Burton's romanticism and melodic approach rubbing off on ...

Riverside Profiles (2006) more music like this

by Bill Evans

The Bill Evans volume in the Riverside Profiles series contains the standard ten selections; they are taken from his six years with the label from 1956-1962. These volumes primarily serve as budget-priced introductions to any given artist, and this one is no exception. There are four tunes here taken from the most famous Bill Evans Trio that ...

She Dances Overhead: The Songs of Rodgers and Hart (1955) more music like this

by Matt Dennis

Matt Dennis is remembered more for the songs he composed than for his career as a singer. Tunes such as "Everything Happens to Me," "Let's Get Away From It All," and "Angel Eyes" are evergreens whose place in the Great American Songbook is well established. But he was an entertainer as well, playing pianist for some of the top singers of the 1940s ...

The Art Tatum Solo Masterpieces, Vol. 7 (1953) more music like this

by Art Tatum

The next-to-last volume in this eight CD-series features interpretations of a variety of standards, including "Moon Song," "Japanese Sandman," "Moonlight on the Ganges" and even "Mighty like a Rose." Taken from the 119 numbers that Tatum recorded for Norman Granz during four marathon sessions, the music is pleasing, if at times a bit too relaxed ...

Roll Call (1991) more music like this

Herb Ellis' first full set as a leader since leaving the Concord label (where he had been during 1973-88) finds him in inspired form. The veteran guitarist is heard in a trio with the recently rediscovered organist Mel Rhyne and drummer Jake Hanna plus guest violinist Johnny Frigo and Jay Thomas on tenor and flugelhorn. A fire seemed to have been ...

The Great American Songbook Collection (2005) more music like this

by Rod Stewart

Very simple and blatant repackage of all three of Rod Stewart's three standards recordings in a box. Nothing more, nothing less, though some would argue this is way too much of a "good" thing. Thom Jurek, All Music Guide

Out of the Blue (1997) more music like this

by Peisha McPhee

When one applies for a job, sometimes the response is that you're overqualified. The same may be the case for Peisha McPhee. Her classically trained, strong, clear voice of operatic proportions doesn't always fit well with the songs on the play list, songs that require somewhat more vocal dynamics than McPhee gives. Trying hard as she can to ...

Signed by GRP at a tender age in the early 1990s, young pianist Sergio Salvatore looked like he had a promising career ahead of him. Moving over to Concord for his third CD as a leader, he completed work on this trio date with bassist John Patitucci and drummer Peter Erskine a few weeks prior to celebrating his fifteenth birthday. He literally ...
