The Best of Chet Baker Sings

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Chet Baker

Release Date August 04, 1989
Now, admittedly I'm not a fan of too much jazz music, but that's mainly because I can't handle the self-indulgence of long solos or the arrogance of many jazz musicians. In fact, if you look back on Chet's career, releasing this album killed his credibility in the jazz scene. He went from being a hip trumpet player to being a pop singer, basically. Personally, I think its the smartest move he's ever made.

This album is amazing. I like it more than any other jazz album I've ever heard, and despite what I said earlier, I do listen to quite a bit of jazz (how can you hate an entire style?). So that being said, why do I like this album? Because Chet has an incredibly seductive, relaxing voice. These songs are beautiful and he ... Read More:

Call off the Search

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Katie Melua

Release Date June 08, 2004
Katie Melua possesses singing talent, for sure. But there's more here. Her melancholy, far-off voice transforms these songs into a wonderful tapestry of emotional love, loss and longing. Bravo!

The Fabulous Swing Collection

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Various Artists

Release Date February 10, 1998
When this first came out over a decade ago from RCA Victor/BMG it was an instant winner among those Big Band fans starving for some CD material presenting the music of that era in quality AAD sound. Unlike many releases at that time, it even has three paragraphs in the insert describing the usual reception for these renowned groups when their buses rolled into town, along with a re-listing of the generous (for the time) 19 tracks showing recording dates and locations.

With so much to choose from in terms of material, I have to agree with those who assigned 5 stars to the tracks presented here, each in its own way representative of the music so popular from 1933 to 1940 (the span covered here). And yes, even to the inclusion of Fletcher Henderson's ... Read More:

O show é muito bom, entretanto, eu só daria 5 estrelas se o vocalista fosse James Dewar, que, junto com Robin, marcaram época com essa banda fantastica!

The Best of the Song Books

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Ella Fitzgerald

Release Date September 21, 1993
I've listened to the other songbooks and this CD is the only one I can listen to without skipping around. I loved this CD from the first time I heard it. Ella Fitzgerald has one of the best singing voices I've ever heard and I never get tired of this album. I've had it for about ten years and it's still one of the CD's I play the most.

Capitol Collectors Series: Louis Prima

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Louis Prima

Release Date May 21, 1991
How many effortless and affecting changes in tempo and rhythmn can one musician make? Louis Prima was the master. And he was a more accomplished man with a trumpet than Louis Armstrong ever hoped to be. On top of all that, when you set him beside Keely Smith, the combination is music magic. Get the music and listen. At first it may sound like "old timers" music; but stick with it, play it again, and like with great wine, you'll be rewarded after the draught has settled in your guts.
