It Had to Be You: The Great American Songbook

It Had to Be You: The Great American Songbook (2002) more music like this

by Rod Stewart

It's the kind of concept that seems brilliant on paper: revive the career of one of the great vocalists of the rock era by having him sing the great American pop songs of the pre-rock era. It was done before with Linda Ronstadt, and it worked well, so why not Rod Stewart, whose career was in shambles in 2002 following the disastrous modern R&B ...

The Great American Songbook [Box Set]

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 ...

Beyond the Sea

Beyond the Sea (2004) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

For years, Kevin Spacey's dream project was a biopic on '60s crooner Bobby Darin, starring himself as the lead. After over a decade of struggling to get it made, he finally got a green light in the early 2000s to start production, not just as the lead actor, but as the director and producer of Beyond the Sea. One of Spacey's key decisions in the ...

Sinatra and Strings

Sinatra and Strings (1962) more music like this

by Frank Sinatra

Sinatra and Strings, Frank Sinatra's first album with arranger Don Costa, is an exquisite, romantic collection of ballads and is one of his most sensual records. Costa has given the songs -- which consist entirely of standards -- exceedingly lush, heavily orchestrated arrangements that sound like updated, contemporary versions of Axel Stordahl's ...

That's All

That's All (1959) more music like this

by Bobby Darin

That's All, Bobby Darin's second LP, is his most important record. Darin's reputation as a teen idol was established in 1958 and 1959 with the Top Ten hits "Splish Splash," "Dream Lover," and "Queen of the Hop." Later in 1959, That's All broadened his appeal and secured his imortality. The LP begins with Darin's trademark song, Threepenny Opera's ...

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 ...

The Great American Songbook Collection

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

The Best of the Concord Years

The Best of the Concord Years (2000) more music like this

by Gene Harris

In a musical career that spanned over 50 years, Gene Harris played on more than 80 recordings and shared the stage with such giants of jazz as Joe Williams, Stanley Turrentine, Dizzy Gillespie, Kenny Burrell, and Ray Brown. During 1985-1999, his Concord Years, Harris recorded over 25 albums and CDs. This compilation captures the much-heralded ...

The Natural Soul [Bonus Tracks]

The Natural Soul [Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this

by Lou Donaldson

The Natural Soul finds Lou Donaldson delving deeply into soul-jazz; recording a set of funky, greasy instrumentals with only a few references to hard bop. Donaldson occasionally sounds a little awkward with the relaxed groove of The Natural Soul, as does trumpeter Tommy Turrentine, but the trio of guitarist Grant Green, organist Johnny Patton, and ...

As Long as I'm Singing: The Bobby Darin Collection

As Long as I'm Singing: The Bobby Darin Collection (1995) more music like this

by Bobby Darin

Bobby Darin was a diverse performer, singing everything from pop and rock to Broadway and swing tunes, as well as a selection of folk and country for good measure. Darin never was lacking in ambition, trying more styles than most other pop singers. That doesn't mean he was consistent, as the four-disc box set As Long as I'm Singing: The Bobby ...

Ballad Essentials (2003) more music like this

by Gene Harris

This compilation draws 11 tracks from nine Gene Harris albums recorded for Concord Records between 1989 and 1995, and what's striking is how consistent those tracks are. Working at slow tempos, Harris plus his accompanists -- ranging from piano-guitar-bass-drums quartets to a duet with tenor saxophonist Scott Hamilton ("At Last"); a trio with ...

The Exciting Connie Francis (1959) more music like this

by Connie Francis

While cutting rock & roll singles for the teenage market, 20-year-old Connie Francis switched gears on her second album, recording a set of standards backed by strings and intended for the adult market. Her assurance was demonstrated on such uptempo songs as "Come Rain or Come Shine," on which she sang authoritatively, and she was just as ...

Songbird (1995) more music like this

by Joyce Breach

Joyce Breach is indeed a songbird; backed by the Jerry Melaga Trio, Breach's classy voice caresses 12 pop standards as lovingly as a mother cradles a newborn. However, except for "You and Me," "Peel Me a Grape," "I Believe in You," "That's All," and "Lady Sings the Blues" -- her heartiest vocal -- the arrangements are redundant and ...

Introducing Lee Morgan (1956) more music like this

by Lee Morgan with the Hank Mobley Quintet

Originally a Hank Mobley session, this is one of trumpeter Lee Morgan's earliest recordings. At the time Morgan (who was just 18) was very much under the musical influence of Clifford Brown although a bit of his own personality was starting to shine through. With the fine tenor of Mobley, pianist Hank Jones, bassist Doug Watkins and drummer Art ...

For Lovers: Billie Holiday/Nina Simone/Sarah Vaughan (2005) more music like this

by Various Artists

With three albums in one, For Lovers: Billie Holiday/Nina Simone/Sarah Vaughan presents an attractive package, especially in comparison to having to buy the individual Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, and Sarah Vaughan editions. The songs for each singer were chosen to highlight each one's more romantic side (there's no "Strange Fruit" or "Mississippi ...

Soul Stirrin' (1958) more music like this

by Bennie Green

Soul Stirrin' is an invigorating, exciting date from trombonist Bennie Green, showcasing his wide range of skills. His tone is alternately boisterous and reflective -- the juxtaposition of the wildly swinging "We Wanna Cook" (complete with shouted vocals) and the gentle "That's All" is startling, demonstrating that Green can vary his robust sound ...

The Many Facets Of/Heads Up (2006) more music like this

by David "Fathead" Newman

Here are two oddly paired David "Fathead" Newman recordings. The first and better of the two is The Many Facets of David Newman. It features a wealth of R&B and soul-oriented material, including fine readings of Stevie Wonder's "Sylvia" and Curtis Mayfield's "We're a Winner." There are also a number of excellent, deep, slow grooving originals such ...

Moonlight & Love Songs (2002) more music like this

by Leon Russell

Seems like doing an album of standards has become the benchmark of a long career and respectability for those who used to pride themselves on being the outlaws of music. Willie Nelson's done it (several times) and so have many others -- and now Leon Russell joins the crowd. And the resultant Moonlight & Love Songs isn't bad at all, with graceful - ...
