CD Reviews

Anything but easy listening

Ara Jane Olufson | Seattle, WA United States | 05/21/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"mel torme's incomparable voice is beyond wonderful on this live recording. it's phenomenal to me how he can be so consistently on. he covers the classics ("one for my baby, one for the road" and "just one of those things"), some seldom-performed songs ("looking at you", a gorgeous cole porter tune that deserves to be played more), and strangely makes a medley sound cool ("the tender trap" slips into "love and marriage" and back again). in fact, every track on this cd is near perfect. it would make a nice introduction for torme-newbies, and will change the all-too-common thinking that mel torme is just cheesy easy listening."
