Unforgettable: With Love
(1991)
more music like this
by
Natalie Cole
A major change of direction for Natalie Cole, Unforgettable found the singer abandoning the type of R&B/pop she'd been recording since 1975 in favor of jazz-influenced pre-rock pop along the lines of Nat King Cole's music. It was a surprising risk that paid off handsomely -- both commercially and artistically. Naysayers who thought that so radical ...

Michael Bublé
More than any of his contemporaries, vocalist Michael Bublé has bridged the gap between standards-oriented vocal pop and more contemporary pop vocals. Having perfected the mix on his superb 2003 effort, It's Time, which found the Frank Sinatra-influenced singer covering both "I've Got You Under My Skin" and Leon Russell's R&B ballad "Song for You, ...

Bewitched

by
Original Soundtrack
Like the Mr. and Mrs. Smith soundtrack, the music for Bewitched sticks to a theme -- in this case (surprise!) witches, magic, and love -- but generally manages to avoid utter cheesiness and predictability. Frank Sinatra's "Witchcraft," Steve Lawrence's "Bewitched," and Ella Fitzgerald's wonderfully mischievous version of "Ding Dong! The Witch is ...

The Parent Trap [1998 Original Soundtrack]

by
Original Soundtrack
Considering that The Parent Trap was virtually designed as a marketing exercise, it's not surprising that its soundtrack feels as carefully assembled as the film itself. The movie turned out to be quite enjoyable, and the soundtrack comes close to being equally fun. Its weakest moments are the newer tracks; they're reasonably entertaining -- Super ...

by
Bert Kaempfert
This puts together two old Decca vinyl albums originally issued in 1964 by Bert Kaempfert onto one reissue CD. The style of this German bandleader was always middle of the road, smooth as silk, and literally the definition of easy listening elevator music. That Latin Feeling finds him putting his orchestra through a selection of old standards like ...

Originally released in 1963 at a time when Bobby Hackett was playing trumpet behind Tony Bennett, these are jazz-oriented versions of pop hits popularized by Henry Mancini and Bert Kaempfert.

Vocalist Dionne Warwick had already begun her ascent of the pop and R&B charts by the time of Windows of the World (1967) and Valley of the Dolls (1968). In fact, they would respectively continue the trend, yielding a handful of her best-known and loved works. These LPs are augmented by a trio of unissued and hard-to-find cuts on the Windows of ...

Billy Crystal Presents: The Milt Gabler Story [CD/DVD]

by
Original Soundtrack
At first glance, a CD of jazz tracks handpicked by comedian/actor Billy Crystal may seem an odd bird. However, given that Crystal's uncle, Commodore Records founder Milt Gabler, produced most of the cuts included here, it actually makes more sense than many similar-themed albums with tracks picked by musicians. Thanks to the family connection, ...

As one of the few Sarah Vaughan compilations to make it onto the shelves of most music stores (until it too is supplanted), MCA's 20th Century Masters collection has large shoes to fill. Since MCA owns the Mercury catalog -- for which she recorded during the '50s and '60s -- listeners shouldn't worry that they're purchasing substandard material. ...

Lou Donaldson has recorded many strong sessions throughout his career but this CD reissue brings back one of the less-significant ones. Organist Leon Spencer dominates the ensembles, the material is a bit trivial and the altoist/leader uses a baritone sax on some of the selections which makes him sound much less individual than usual.
