CD Reviews

Love Julie London, but she is sabatoged by poor arrangements
Hoc Stercus | Hudson, NY USA | 03/22/2002
(3 out of 5 stars)

"Julie London was blessed with one of the lushest and most seductive voices I've heard. When everything is on target, her version of a song is tops. On this combination of two albums from the 1960's, Ms. London's singing is as warm and enticing as ever. Unfortunately the person or persons providing the backup arrangements did not serve her very well. Altogether there are 3 or 4 songs where everything really clicks. On the rest the background instrumentals sabatoge the spirit and mood of the song. So far my favorite Julie London CD is "Julie London Sings the Standards.""
London's steamiest set sizzles
Darryl Geddes | Syracuse, NY | 11/16/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This twofer presents the late Julie London at her breathiest best. Her steamy, smokey-throated takes on an eclectic mix of songs and arrangements is enjoyable listening. London manages to give the Jiminy Cricket ballad from Pinocchio, "Give A Little Whistle," a new meaning, and she stays in the Disney genre with an awkward rendition of the Mickey Mouse March. London is no Mouseketteer, especially when singing the title tune, "Nice Girls Don't Stay For Breakfast." The first album, "The End of the World," finds London accompanied by a pulsating organ and background chorus that gives "Our Day Will Come" a hackneyed interpretation. But the choiciest tunes on this compilation are her jumpy "Fly Me to the Moon," "The Good Life" and "I Wanna Be Around.""
