In the Wee Small Hours

In the Wee Small Hours (1954) more music like this

by Frank Sinatra

Expanding on the concept of Songs for Young Lovers!, In the Wee Small Hours was a collection of ballads arranged by Nelson Riddle. The first 12" album recorded by Sinatra, Wee Small Hours was more focused and concentrated than his two earlier concept records. It's a blue, melancholy album, built around a spare rhythm section featuring a rhythm ...

September of My Years

September of My Years (1965) more music like this

by Frank Sinatra

September of My Years is one of Frank Sinatra's triumphs of the '60s, an album that consolidated his strengths while moving him into new territory, primarily in terms of tone. More than the double-disc set A Man and His Music -- which was released a year after this album -- September of My Years captures how Sinatra was at the time of his 50th ...

Live at the Village Vanguard

Live at the Village Vanguard (2007) more music like this

by Bill Charlap Trio

Some 13 years into his recording career, jazz pianist extraordinaire Bill Charlap's first live album is, perhaps, his most exquisite release to date. While virtually all of his studio albums more than adequately showcase Charlap's virtuosity, good taste, and ceaseless imagination at the keys, it took the spontaneity of the live performance -- at ...

Perfectly Frank

Perfectly Frank (1992) more music like this

by Tony Bennett

Perfectly Frank is just that -- a group of covers that came to define Frank Sinatra as a vocal legend. Here, Tony Bennett pays homage to "the Voice" in a way only he can. This massive, 24-track compilation runs through the list of standards that made Sinatra legendary. "Night and Day," "East of the Sun (West of the Moon)," and "The Lady Is a Tramp ...

The Complete Concord Recordings (2002) more music like this

by Mel Tormé & George Shearing

Beside Marty Paich, none of Mel Tormé's collaborators exerted such a large influence on the singer's career as George Shearing, the pianist whose understated, expressive accompaniment contributed to Tormé's resurgence during the early '80s. Their six excellent albums together -- two of which, An Evening With... and Top Drawer, earned Grammy awards ...

Every Time I Think of You

Every Time I Think of You (2006) more music like this

by Alan Broadbent

Alan Broadbent has long been appreciated as a fine pianist and arranger, talents he combines on this studio effort with bassist Brian Bromberg and drummer Kendall Kay, along with background color by the Tokyo Strings. "Autumn Variations" is a superb workout of the chord changes to the standard "Autumn Leaves." The pianist's lyrical setting of the ...

The Essential Tony Bennett [Columbia/Legacy]

The Essential Tony Bennett [Columbia/Legacy] (2002) more music like this

by Tony Bennett

Like most entries in Sony/Legacy's Essential series, 2002's The Essential Tony Bennett is an excellent, exhaustive retrospective of a lengthy, hit-filled career at Columbia. Although Bennett spent time at other labels -- particularly in the '70s -- he made his best-known and greatest recordings for Columbia, from the late '50s through the '90s, ...

An Elegant Evening

An Elegant Evening (1985) more music like this

by George Shearing with Mel Tormé

This collaboration by pianist George Shearing and vocalist Mel Torme differs from most of their others in that the performances are duets (rather than with bass and occasional drums) and the repertoire sticks exclusively to ballads. With the exception of the closing "You're Driving Me Crazy" (which is taken at a medium bounce), all of the tunes ...

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 ...

Marian McPartland celebrated her 85th birthday in style by hosting a lively session at Birdland with many guests (both young and old) who have appeared on her long-running NPR series. Whether she's a part of the audience or on-stage jamming with her friends, it's apparent that everyone in the club is having a blast. The romp through "I Love You" ...

Guitar Forms (1964) more music like this

by Kenny Burrell

Though this ranks as one of arranger Gil Evans' minor achievements in the grand scheme of things, for Kenny Burrell it was a career-defining moment, one of his most individual, most multi-faceted, most emotionally affecting recordings. Whether playing straight-ahead and countrified blues on electric guitar, dipping into the bossa nova and brooding ...

Almost Blue (1991) more music like this

The Ritz, when they made their first recording in 1985, were a bop-oriented vocal trio consisting of Daryl Bosteels, Sharon Broadley and Mickey Freeman (backed by a rhythm section which included Bosteels on piano).

A Jazz Romance: A Night in With Verve (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

In jazz, ballads have a way of separating the men from the boys and the women from the girls. They show what an improviser is made of emotionally. On ballads, technique for the sake of technique doesn't cut it -- you have to bring some genuine feeling and honest-to-God emotion to the table. And there is plenty of honest-to-God emotion on this four ...

Duality (1994) more music like this

by Peter Leitch & John Hicks

Peter Leitch and John Hicks joined forces for a third studio date on Reservoir, though this time out, it is just the two of them. Leitch, a lyrical player in the style of Jim Hall, is beautifully complemented by Hicks' piano technique. While standards are a part of the date (and well played, too), the originals by each of the two men and the ...

Sings Harold Arlen (1988) more music like this

by Eileen Farrell

This was a companion package for two sets featuring celebrated opera singer Eileen Farrell doing pre-rock popular standards by noted composers. This set had the same musicians and arranger as the Harold Arlen set, was even issued in the same year (1989), and contained same amount of songs (14). There's little there to distinguish them; each was ...

First Milestone (2000) more music like this

by Eric Alexander

Although Alexander has had stuff released on Milestone previously, this is actually his first album recorded specifically for the label (the others were licensed from Japan's Alfa label). So it isn't a debut per se, but no matter. Not the least of the CDs attractions are the three Alexander compositions front-loaded at the top, winners all. Indeed ...
