The Look of Love

The Look of Love (2001) more music like this

by Diana Krall

Diana Krall is an attractive lady with a good voice who plays decent piano, but this somewhat ridiculously packaged Verve CD seems like an obvious attempt to turn her into a pop icon, and sex symbol to boot. The bland arrangements by Claus Ogerman (who conducts the London Symphony Orchetra or the Los Angeles Session Orchestra on each track) border ...

Bags and Trane

Bags and Trane (1959) more music like this

by Milt Jackson & John Coltrane

Vibraphonist Milt Jackson and tenor saxophonist John Coltrane make for a surprisingly complementary team on this 1959 studio session, their only joint recording. With fine backup by pianist Hank Jones, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Connie Kay, Bags and Trane stretch out on two of Jackson's originals (including "The Late Late Blues") and three ...

The Heavyweight Champion: The Complete Atlantic Recordings

The Heavyweight Champion: The Complete Atlantic Recordings (1959) more music like this

by John Coltrane

The Heavyweight Champion is a box set that lives up to its title. Collecting all of John Coltrane's Atlantic recordings, including a fair number of unreleased takes as well as an entire disc of alternate tracks and studio chatter, the seven-disc box set documents a pivotal moment in Coltrane's career, as he was moving from hard bop and sweet ...

Angel Eyes (1962) more music like this

by Dave Brubeck

As with Dave Brubeck's Richard Rodgers set (My Favorite Things), his tribute to composer Matt Dennis was recorded partly in 1962 with the remainder three years later. Each of these seven standards (which include "Let's Get Away from It All," "Violets for Your Furs" and "Will You Still Be Mine?") are given superior and swinging treatments with fine ...

Portrait Edition

Portrait Edition (1994) more music like this

by Jo Stafford

For over 30 years, Jo Stafford was one of America's top middle-of-the-road pop singers, admired for her ability to always sing in tune and to uplift every lyric she interpreted while actually singing very straight. This three-CD retrospective, which was released in 1994, has 76 selections covering a 40-year period, with most of the numbers dating ...

Secret Love: The Music of Doris Day (2002) more music like this

by Karen Oberlin

Karen Oberlin has expressed her admiration of Doris Day in two different settings. Oberlin portrayed the '40s/'50s star in her New York play, Secret Love: A Tribute to the True Doris Day, and she provides a studio tribute to her on her second album, Secret Love: The Music of Doris Day. Oberlin is a suitable person for a Day tribute because, like ...

Day by Night (1959) more music like this

by Doris Day

Doris Day had considerable success for a non-film project with Day by Day, an album of interwar ballads conducted by Paul Weston, in 1957. Naturally enough, she re-teamed with Weston for the following year's Day by Night, another thematic album, this one a "program of night songs," as the liner notes put it. Day and Weston were mostly concerned ...

Byrd Song

Byrd Song (1965) more music like this

by Charlie Byrd

"Charlie Byrd With Voices" is an odd subtitle for this mid-'60s album, considering that vocals are only heard sporadically; that voices aren't even heard on some of the tracks; and that, when the vocals are heard, they're wordless background choral bits, not a vocalist or vocalists actually singing lyrics. In truth, it seems like a gimmick or an ...

The Songs Sinatra Sang (1996) more music like this

by Carol Sloane

Recorded two years before Frank Sinatra's death, Carol Sloane's tribute set features the talented veteran singer interpreting 13 songs that were associated with Sinatra. On five selections, the vocalist is assisted by pianist Bill Charlap, bassist Sean Smith, drummer Ron Vincent and Frank Wess on tenor and flute. "You Make Me Feel So Young" is a ...

The Band and I

The Band and I (1958) more music like this

by Irene Kral

The Band and I pairs Irene Kral with Ernie Wilkins and Al Cohn, whose energetic, robust arrangements capture a dimension of the singer rarely glimpsed on record -- upbeat and persuasive, with little of the spectral melancholy that hangs over her later, more familiar sessions. The titular backing unit in question, led by trumpeter Herb Pomeroy, ...

You Had Better Listen (1968) more music like this

by The Jimmy Owens-Kenny Barron Quintet

Kenny Barron and Jimmy Owen's first recording was a solid debut. The exciting title cut, "You Had Better Listen," composed by Jimmy Owens, is good, basic, up-tempo jazz, nothing fancy, no frills. The Jimmy Owens-Kenny Barron Quintet (JOKBQ) doesn't condescend like some jazz artists tend to do; casuals can groove, relate, nod their heads in ...

Easy to Remember (1953) more music like this

by Mel Tormé

This brief Hindsight CD (under 36 minutes) alternates Mel Torme performances from 1953 with those from 1963; the backing personnel is not known in both cases. The previously unreleased material mostly emphasizes ballads and only three of the 16 selections are over 21 minutes. Tormé sounds fine, sticking primarily to the melody, but since he has ...

Soft Lights (1999) more music like this

by Hoston Person

Honestly, it's tempting to imagine (shades of the urban legend about German avant-garde freaks Amon Düül) that when Houston Person signed to High Note Records in the mid-'90s, he recorded one marathon session and all of his albums since then have simply been culled from those master tapes. Certainly they've had the same sound, along with most of ...

The Great Glenn Miller Instrumentals/We Remember Tommy Too! (2001) more music like this

by The Modernaires

This two-fer from EMI features a pair of out of print Modernaires LPs: Great Glenn Miller Instrumentals and We Remember Tommy Dorsey Too! Highlights among the 24 big band standards include "Tuxedo Junction," "Little Brown Jug," and "On the Sunny Side of the Street," which are pleasant, but not essential. Al Campbell, All Music Guide

The Erteguns' New York Cabaret (1987) more music like this

by Various Artists

Once upon a time (roughly the early 50s), in a faraway land (Manhattan), there lived a group of singers, piano players, and other musicians and a fascinated audience that crowded into dozens of little clubs to hear them sing and play some of the best songs ever written. Most of them are gone now, but the music lives on in this six-record boxed set ...

Whatcha Know Joe: The Best of the Dorsey Years (1999) more music like this

by The Pied Pipers

The Pied Pipers' tenure with Tommy Dorsey's swing band is fondly recalled on Whatcha Know Joe, an excellent 21-track compilation capturing the group's biggest war-era hits. Although Jo Stafford is spotlighted on songs including "Embraceable You" and "The Night We Called It a Day," even more noteworthy are four tracks featuring Frank Sinatra ( ...

First Songs (1999) more music like this

by Ruth Cameron

On her debut recording, Cameron (influenced by Jeri Southern and coached by Sue Raney) sports a thin, wispy vocal quality that recalls Blossom Dearie. On this set of five standards and two originals by Abbey Lincoln -- mainly ballads -- she's backed by husband/bassist Charlie Haden, drummer Larance Marable and pianist Chris Dawson. Except for the ...

Her Greatest Hits (2008) more music like this

by Jo Stafford

Perhaps this whopping four-CD, 108-track collection should be titled "Her Greatest Hits, And More." Jo Stafford, a premier jazz-pop singer of the late '30s onward, had a great voice, substantial musicianship behind her, an undeniable sex appeal, and a seemingly limitless repertoire, if you judge by what's on this compilation. Each CD is split into ...
