He doesn't simply play and sing notes: he understands the lyrics and he tells the story. You believe him when he displays shades of Whyte in this aptly titled CD and exclaims "The Song is You"and "I Love the Way You Dance". There's heartfelt sincerity in his requests to "Linger Awhile" and "Love Me Tomorrow", he no doubt means it in "I'll Tell You What". An imaginative arrangement of that '50s tale of a young girl's awakening may strike a nostalgic note in "Nina Never Knew". This collection is also seasoned with "A Little Samba" and a trio of songs with a Bossa Nova beat. Some vintage Jerome Kern, Blossom Dearie, Vernon Duke, Lerner & Lane and Schwartz & Dietz round out the program with style and heart. I am delighted to add this bouquet to my collection. —Elliott Ames WVOX- AM 1460, WVOX.com write your comments about the article :: © 2017 Jazz News :: home page |
