Jazz Singer

Jazz Singer (2003) more music like this

by Rosemary Clooney

After finishing her period as one of the Clooney Sisters with Tony Pastor's orchestra, Rosemary Clooney became famous for her pop hits on the Columbia label in the early '50s. Although never really a jazz singer on a consistent basis, Clooney had a few opportunities to record in jazz settings in the 1950s, most notably an album with Duke Ellington ...

Nymph Errant

Nymph Errant (1990) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

With an all-star cast -- including Kaye Ballard, Larry Kert, Maureen McGovern, Lisa Kirk, Alexis Smith, and Elizabeth Welch -- and the vibrancy of a live recording, plus one of the cleverest scores ever written for the stage, there's not a wrong note or even a slightly off nuance to be heard in this dream of a recording. The music and ...

Sings the Cole Porter Songbook

Sings the Cole Porter Songbook (1990) more music like this

by Julie Wilson

Having previously devoted songbook albums to Stephen Sondheim, Kurt Weill, and Harold Arlen in successive years, Julie Wilson continues the career comeback she mounted in 1984 by turning to Cole Porter, who may be her most compatible songwriter source yet. Wilson, a native of Omaha, NE, moved to New York and the world of musical theater and ...

Date with the King/On Stage/Tenderly

Date with the King/On Stage/Tenderly (2002) more music like this

by Rosemary Clooney

This discount-priced reissue CD combines the contents of three 10" LPs associated with Rosemary Clooney and originally released by Columbia Records in 1955 and 1956. Ten-inch LPs usually contained eight songs, but these three only contained six each, for a total of 18 tracks in about 57 and a half minutes. The three present different sides of ...

Memories of You

Memories of You (1998) more music like this

by Rosemary Clooney

This seven-CD set would rate even higher, if only it weren't for the same problems that mar the preceding Bear Family volume, covering the early years of Rosemary Clooney's career. She had one of the great voices of 1950s pop and jazz music, and when she's doing jazz -- as with Duke Ellington here, on the material off of the Blue Rose album -- or ...

Star [ASV/Living Era] (1999) more music like this

by Gertrude Lawrence

Holliday with Mulligan

Holliday with Mulligan (1980) more music like this

by Judy Holliday/Gerry Mulligan

Baritone-saxophonist Gerry Mulligan and actress Judy Holliday were an "item" around the time of this recording. Their one meeting on record features Holliday doing some effective singing on eleven songs, mostly lesser-known standards plus four songs co-written by the two leaders. Unfortunately Mulligan's Concert Jazz Band is largely wasted, being ...

Speaking of Love/Sing Me a Swing Song (2001) more music like this

by Bobby Short

Bobby Short's third and fourth Atlantic Records albums, Speaking of Love and Sing Me a Swing Song, were both released in 1958, so there is justice in pairing them on this CD two-fer. But the two LPs took distinctly different approaches. Speaking of Love, a concept album of optimistic love songs, found Short's voice and piano backed by bass and ...

Live! in London (1993) more music like this

by Marlene Verplanck

Marlene VerPlanck, a wonderful singer whose style falls somewhere between jazz and cabaret, is in fine form on this live CD. VerPlanck, although her improvisations are quite subtle, always swings and manages to find beauty in each song she interprets. This set has a wide variety of material which ranges from such classics as "Body and Soul" and ...

Hod & Cole (1993) more music like this

by Hod O'Brien Jazz Quintet

Pianist Hod O'Brien has a relatively rare date as a leader on this 1992 quintet session, with alto and soprano saxophonist Mark Kirk, guitarist Tony Purrone, bassist Steve Gilmore, and drummer Jeff Brillinger. Although the music of Cole Porter is the primary focus of the CD, O'Brien's burning blues "Cole Burner" serves as the introduction to this ...

You're the Top: Cole Porter in the 1930's (1992) more music like this

by Various Artists

The Indiana Historical Society's three-CD box set commemorating Cole Porter's centenary focuses on his work in his most productive decade, the 1930s, when he wrote the songs for nine stage and three movie musicals. The collection is organized chronologically by the songs' composition, even though the recordings employed range from the '30s to the ...

Sing Me a Swing Song (1958) more music like this

by Bobby Short

After three albums of piano trio music with only the occasional added instrument, Bobby Short was given a somewhat expanded budget for Sing Me a Swing Song by Atlantic Records. The label paid for a six- or seven-piece horn section, along with a four-piece rhythm section, for two-thirds of the tracks. That still wasn't a big band by swing era ...
