5-0 out of 5 stars The Best Singer in the world!!!!
This woman is the Best singer I've ever heard.I'm only 20 years old and I just looooove her music so much.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Best.
Ella is without question the greatest American singer of all time. Buy this one, buy any of them, buy them all. She never made a bad album. She opens her mouth and heaven flows. I would also suggest any of the biographies, including some on dvd with performances. This diva was, IS, the real thing - with a heart to match the voice.

5-0 out of 5 stars This Fella Loves Ella
Ella is an extraordinary and refreshing exception to most Jazz vocalists.Many Jazz singers have a very bad technique, producing their sound from their throats in an unhealthy manner.Ella, however, has the technique and stamina of a classical singer.This why her career peaked in her 40's and was able to sing until very late in her life.Read more

I was a child when I first heard this.This was probably my father'sfavorite musical.For me, this is the definitive Camelot.The combination of Richard Burton, Julie Andrews, Robert Goulet, and Roddy McDowall was pure magic.So in a fit of nostalgia, I ordered this.And even now, I still feel its hold on me.

Editorial Review

This solo recording is a fitting coda for Keith Jarrett's more restrained, less prolific output in the 1990s. The fitful vamps and long, ruminative improvisations that made Jarrett a solo piano star in the '70s are here either stillborn or tightly tethered to classic melodies from the likes of Gershwin and Ellington, yet there is not the slightest hint of repression. Instead, Jarrett sprinkles notes and brings the familiar strains of "I Loves You, Porgy" and "Someone to Watch over Me" to bloom with a dynamic but resonantly earth-toned vibrancy. Rarely has the pianist kept his music so simple and free of pageantry. Audible moans and shenanigans with the piano's sustain pedal are held to a minimum, and even brawny, sing-along stuff like "Shenandoah" and "My Wild Irish Rose" never lapse into sloppy sentimentality--indeed, Jarrett's two-handed caress of the latter song is so delicately self assured, the tune seems to play itself. Among the 10 tracks, only "I Got It Bad and That Ain't Good" finds the pianist stretching into busy (but still crisp) extended passages. Yes, there are moments when Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars In a world with so much noise...
In a world with so much noise and clamor it is a pleasure to listen to this album. The set is so wonderfully put together and it shows the love for the ballad. K.J. has demonstrated that music does not have to be a constant flurry of notes and tempo to hit the mark. For those who complain about the sound quality of the recording I would suggest for this once, they listen with their hearts instead of their ears, with this perspective they will appreciate the music even more.

5-0 out of 5 stars His best solo album? Too many to choose from....
Somehow a solo album only covering the American Songbook was expected from Keith Jarrett after the all the extremely successful Standards Trio albums on ECM with Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette. But the moving story behind how this album became a reality for Jarrett (JazzTimes cover story) makes every one of the these beloved tunes on this excellent CD very special.Jarrett's simple and naked approach with his less-than-usual improvisation to the tunes is beyond believe when he opens with "I Loves You, Porgy" and continues through jazz standards and adds on few surprises like "Shenandoah" and "My Wild Irish Rose" (years since I heard these tunes).In other words many highlights but if I should pick one it must be "Blame It On My Youth/Mediation" where Jarrett ends this lovely tune with a meditative improvisation over the chord structure so beautiful that I had to pinch my arm.
5-0 out of 5 stars Deeply Emotional
The first few moment of listening to Keith Jarrett playing caused such an emotional response, I spent the next hour listening and listening and literally crying from the sheer beauty of his playing. Nothing has touched me quite as deeply. Then when I learned the amazing story behind this CD, I was even more moved to tears.

5-0 out of 5 stars Hy Zaret would have loved it.
William Stirrat, AKA Hy Zaret (pen name), who wrote the words to "Unchained Melody", never liked Bobby Hatfield's (Rightous Brothers) version of it becaused he "jazzed it up".So, I think he would have loved the way Barry Manilow sang it on this CD.By the way, for those of you, like me, who always wondered where "Unchained Melody" got its name, it was featured in the now obscure 1955 prison movie "Unchained".It was nominated for Best Song but lost out to another song on this CD "Love Is A Many Splendored Thing".History aside, I like the way Barry Manilow presents these timeless classics.You can tell he is singing them with the feeling and respect they deserve.It's much more than "easy listening". It's a time capsule back to the '50's.

1-0 out of 5 stars Instant cutout.
There is no doubt that Manilow, best known for his longtime association with Bette Midler , is a talentedpianist who could play creative and original music if he desired.

Editorial Review

Lions and tigers and bears, the yellow brick road, gamboling midgets, warnings scrawled high above by a skywriting witch: No movie ever imprinted itself on young imaginations or endured in adult memory more than MGM's classic 1939 musical, and no movie score ever hooked as forcefully into our collective cultural memory.This exemplary soundtrack finally treats this deserved classic to a thoughtful and comprehensive rendering (an even more detailed, expanded version was also released simultaneously as a deluxe box) that confirms the enduring power of Harold Arlen's original music and E. Y. "Yip" Harburg's lyrics. On film, the songs unreeled as a mixture of discreet songs and multi-themed medleys with frequent reprises, a presentation preserved here, epitomized in the "Munchkinland Musical Sequence." If not as concise as Bobby McFerrin's legendary, hilarious concert compression of the entire musical story, this telling of Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars wizard of oz: selections from the original motion picture sountrack
The CD came promptly. My grandchildren, children and I had a great time listening to it without watching the DVD and going through all of the scenes. We are very happy with our purchase.

5-0 out of 5 stars Captivating, just like the movie
It is true that CDs created from antquated recording equipment show their age.This one is no exception, but the sound to me is still quite good and it is surprising that the production turned out so well.
4-0 out of 5 stars Almost Over the Rainbow
This version of The Wizard of Oz proves three things: 1) MGM may well have been the Tiffany's of movie studios back in the 30's, but their sound department was pretty primitive; 2) Harold Arlen and Yip Harburg were a stupendous team and Herbert Stothart (MGM's music director) was a darned good arranger; 3) Judy Garland was a miracle.

Tony Bennett has a typical lack of effusiveness about the kudos of his seven-decade career, but he does reportedly display an inscribed picture from a longtime colleague and fellow saloon singer in his Manhattan apartment. It reads: "To the best goddamned pop singer I've ever heard." It's signed "Frank Sinatra." But don't take the Chairman's word for it. Just listen as these two discs bound from one masterly performance to the next, documenting a career whose ups and downs--Bennett actually went long years Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Best Recording I Have Ever Heard
The orchestrations are breathtaking. The cast members act, sing, and play instruments! What talent! Michael Cerveris is phenomenal! Patti LuPone is amusing and wonderful as always as Sweeney's pie shop sweetie. Manoel Felciano is heartbreaking as Tobey, performing the best rendition of "Not While I'm Around" that i have ever heard. Lauren Molina is equally talented as she brings a delicate, yet exotic soprano to the beautiful character of Joanna. I am so happy that i had the pleasure of seeing this in New York and meeting this ever-so-talented cast. How come they left out some of the dialogue/music towards the end? They did not include the Parlor Songs or Tobey in the bakehouse on this recording. Oh well, the music they do give us is positively spectaculer. I love Sweeney Todd!!!!!

3-0 out of 5 stars Not quite right
This is a very uneven recording. I have not seen this production, and am a big fan of the original produciton and album. I think a minimalist produciton can work, and I quite like the musical arrangements which tend to allow the voices to stand out. Sweeney himself is remarkable. Most of the rest of the cast does well too. But Lupone disappoints as Mrs. Lovett -- she sounds flat and monotonic. Bamford also sounds like he is on way too strong medication. And what's with a female Pirelli?
5-0 out of 5 stars Perfect.
Sweeney Todd is the greatest musical that has ever been made, this cast is the best that I've ever heard, Sondheim is the greatest lyricist and composer of musical theatre, and the revival production on Broadway was the single greatest thing I've seen on Broadway in the past 10 years. Cerveris owns the role of Sweeney, it really is going to be the crowning achievment in his impressive career, he's that good in it. Lupone is a goddess of musical theatre as usual, and supporting players like Alex Gemignani and Mano Felciano are standouts among an exceptionally talented cast.

Editorial Review

This recording was produced more than 40 years ago, only in mono, but from the day it was released it was a deserved phenomenon. It out-grossed the mega-hit show for months, and it still holds the record for the most weeks as a Billboard Top 40 album: 292. The reasons are many. Start with the 20-year-old Julie Andrews in peak voice, singing no fewer than eight sensational Lerner and Loewe songs, soaring most memorably to high C in "I Could Have Danced All Night." Rex Harrison perfected the art of talk-singing in a clutch of equally captivating numbers written especially for his voice, of which the most indelibly delivered is "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face." And Stanley Holloway brought the best English music-hall style to an eager American audience with "A Little Bit of Luck" and "Get Me to the Church on Time." There were no scene-changers in Frederick Loewe's best score, and Alan Jay Lerner managed to fashion his libretto and lyrics so close to the language of George Bernard Shaw (on whose play Read more

What can you say about MFL that hasn't already been said. Sublime, perfect, classic. This is still the definitive recording of the show, and no one has ever come close to the original cast. Sadly, while the movie is wonderful, had Warner Bros. used Andrew's it might have been one of the greatest film musicals of all time. And while Audrey Hepburn gamely gives it her all, Andrew's had clearly made Eliza Doolittle her own, and she would have been uncomparable on film, and raised the level of the entire movie. Well, the rest is history, Andrews went on to be one of the biggest movie stars of the 60's.

Yeah, the music is good (excepting the crappy "Godfather" remake), but this is a little over 60 minutes of music released on two CDs, for no good reason other than to charge the unwitting consumer more money.

The album is quite faithful to the film but loses some of the effect since you cannot see the beautiful Shirley Jones or the engaging Robert Preston. The voices however are true and many of the songs are classics. The album is well worth the money.

5-0 out of 5 stars Perfect Film Musical
They got it exactly right when they transferred The Music Man to the screen. One can quibble about minor aspects, Shirley Jones replacing Barbara Cook for example, and Buddy Hackett? First of all while I love Cook, Shirley Jones fits the role beautifully and certainly can sing it. Hackett actually comes of pretty well, no Borscht Belt humor there. The rest of the cast are perfect.And Robert Preston, well, this is film history, one of a handful of truly great musical comedy roles, performed magnificently!!

As its title indicate, this CD sees popular vocalist Steve Tyrell pay tribute to the Sinatra songbook, and pretty much every track is a famous nugget closely identified with the Chairman of the Board. That Tyrell is no Sinatra is a given, but the combination of his slightly hammy delivery and old-school arrangements makes this perfect bourbon and leather-armchair music--familiar and comfortable. Three of the songs ("Fly Me to the Moon," "The One I Love Belongs to Somebody Else" and "Something Stupid") reproduce the original orchestrations--and really, how can you go wrong with those?--while the others boast cushy new ones by Bob Mann, Alan Broadbent or Count Basie arranger Sammy Nestico.In his press notes, Tyrell remarks that "Nice and Easy" features "the most modern of all the arrangements on the album," but fear not: It sounds exactly like the others, and modernity here only means extra-velvety strings and super-relaxed horns. Echoing the pairing of Frank and Nancy Sinatra on the original, Tyrell sings "Something Stupid" with his daughter Lauryn, though she seems to be pushed behind in the mix and is barely audible. But hey, Frank didn't like sharing the spotlight either! Read more

Editorial Review

Originally released in 1971, Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory was an imaginative film that drew as much inspiration from the leftover vibes (and drugs) of the psychedelic '60s as it did from Roald Dahl's fanciful children's book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. If you doubt it, check out this special 25th anniversary edition of the original soundtrack album, which features lyrics and music by Anthony Newley, who was a major influence on David Bowie and whose work on this film has clearly inspired '90s rockers from Veruca Salt (who took their name from the spoiled rich girl) to the Butthole Surfers (who could easily cover the sinister, trippy "Wondrous Boat Ride". C'mon, everybody, let's sing: "Oompa loompa/Doomp-ity-do/I've got another lesson for you...." Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Pure Imagination is pure pleasure
One of the lovliest songs ever made is "Pure Imagination". I bought the soundtrack along with the original movie and my grandkids love it. "Candy Man" is also on this soundtrack, but only Sammy Davis, Jr. could really make it the wonderful song really is. I recommend it.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of my favorites
I loved this film as a child and have continued to as an adult. As a voice teacher I have taught most of this score to my younger songs. The songs are classic. I used to wish I could go to his garden! I am a huge fan of Gene Wilder's performance in this.

Editorial Review

Try to forget the fact that Bing Crosby probably never had to record another song in his life after he immortalized "White Christmas." If you can do that, you'll find plenty more to like in this crooning Christmas collection. There's the Romantic Bing, charming the tinsel right off the tree with "The Christmas Song," and that cure for cabin fever, "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" There's the Reverent Bing, solemnly singing "Adeste Fideles." And of course, there's Bing the Showman, belting out "Good King Wenceslas" with a bit of that ole vaudeville shine. But no matter what you're told, "White Christmas" will be the number one reason for sticking this one in your stocking. And who can blame you? It's as timeless now as it was way back when. Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Since childhood
I'd rather hear Nat King Cole sing Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire than anyone else.Still this was a family favorite when I was growing up and although I still own the record (yes, record) I purchased the CD to continue listening to it now.Bing Crosby is a Christmas staple and this collection of songs is one of his best.

5-0 out of 5 stars Big's Best
This is the only Bing Crosby Christmas tape that you need to own.
5-0 out of 5 stars an all-time Classic
Buy this CD. You will not be sorry. Bing sings a great selection of Christmas songs, including the unforgettable "White Christmas " by Irving Berlin.

Editorial Review

A year after his slickly produced recording debut launched him on a meteoric course to stardom, this combo CD/DVD set chronicles Michael Buble's crowd-pleasing live performances before amphitheater-sized crowds on a triumphant national tour. The audio portion kicks off with pair of new studio recordings again reinforce the 20-something Canadian heartthrob's 1950s-something artistic tack with mixed results: "Nice 'n' Easy" has a Sinatra-faithful jazzy swing; the overproduced, somnambulistic "Can't Help Falling in Love" evokes Perry Como more than Elvis. The remainder of the audio CD is comprised mostly of live versions of songs from Buble's debut, with his takes of "My Funny Valentine," "Fever," Van Morrison's "Moondance" and "Mack the Knife" again suggesting that Buble has an ear cocked wisely towards the Bobby Darin oeuvre. But with the notable exception of three elegant live-in-studio performances culled from Read more
