A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night [Bonus Tracks]

more music like this
by
Harry Nilsson
With A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night, Harry Nilsson was nearly a decade ahead of Linda Ronstadt and other nouveau crooners in hiring a conductor/arranger of the pre-rock era (in this case Gordon Jenkins) and recording an album of standards before a full orchestra. And he did it better than most, proving to be a marvelous interpreter of ...

Johnny Mathis
On the 50th anniversary of his first release, Johnny Mathis personally assembled and notated this collection of hits from throughout his career. Beginning, as it should, with a baker's dozen of recordings from his prime era of the '50s, Gold: A 50th Anniversary Celebration includes nearly all of his best work (although it skips his '60s and '70s ...

Anne Murray
All of Me is a rather peculiar entry in Anne Murray's discography. After releasing I'll Be Seeing You in October of 2004, Straightway essentially reissued it (not even modifying the artwork, save for the title) with a second disc of Anne Murray's greatest hits. Die-hard fans should not be fooled by this attempt to purchase the same album twice, ...

Regis Philbin
What makes Regis Philbin such a great "everyman" on television is his ability to bounce between professional and spontaneous. If he's confused he wears it on his sleeve; if he's frustrated you'll know it. Philbin takes a totally different attitude when it comes to singing. His first album in over 30 years finds him being more agreeable than ...

Tierney Sutton
This isn't Sutton's tribute to Sinatra, although all the material here was recorded and made famous by him. Instead, it's her working through the nooks and crannies of his songbook, and bringing things out and putting her own particular polish on them. It could be something with strings, such as "What'll I Do?" or the intimacy of "I'll Be Around," ...

by
Original Soundtrack
The soundtrack to Mike Newell's Mona Lisa Smile, a Dead Poets' Society-like film set at a women's college in the '50s, features a wide array of contemporary artists covering standards from that decade. The soundtrack takes the utmost care to sound like an artifact from the early '50s, which is refreshing and frustrating in equal measure. Seal's ...

Art Garfunkel
There is a strangeness that is nearly otherworldly in hearing Art Garfunkel -- half of one of the most enduring duo's in rock's history books -- singing pop standards. Garfunkel was primarily a harmony vocalist in his duo with Paul Simon, but it was that voice that added authority and excitement to their recordings. His own solo records have been ...

Remember: Michael Feinstein Sings Irving Berlin
(1987)
more music like this
by
Michael Feinstein
The first of Feinstein's theme albums, and one of the best. He captures the simple (and at times deceptively clever) sentiment of Berlin with an unadorned approach that brings out the sturdiness of the melodies as well. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

36 All-Time Favorites
(2003)
more music like this
by
Johnny Mathis
A three-disc box including barely enough music to fill one CD, 36 All-Time Favorites certainly isn't the best choice for listeners looking to hear what made Johnny Mathis one of the smoothest pop vocalists of the late '50s and early '60s. Still, most of his hits are present, and in the original versions too, including "Chances Are," "The Twelfth ...

I'll Take Romance is a limited-edition ten-CD box set with 199 songs that collects 20 albums from the legendary pop arranger and pianist Percy Faith.

Garrison Keillor is an acclaimed radio host and author, and occasionally on his long-running program, A Prairie Home Companion, he has raised his voice in song. Unfortunately, he isn't much of a singer, which is confirmed by a listen to this album devoted entirely to his musical efforts. Backed by the Guy's All-Star Shoe Band, Keillor sings ...

Chet Baker
This compilation is culled from Sony Legacy's CTI catalog and dates from the mid-'70s, when the perennially troubled Chet Baker was in decent shape and playing not only well, but in many cases the kind of fiery trumpet he hadn't played since he was on the Mainstream label in the late '60s. Most of these sides -- both live and in the studio -- were ...

Anne Murray's vocals are like a fine scotch: they just keep getting better as the years go by. This smooth collection of standards is what you would expect from her, with well-arranged orchestrations that complement her already nearly pitch-perfect voice. It's a wonderful set of selections, but not without a bit of melancholy found in each song. I ...
