duaneiac Posted September 14, 2019 Report Posted September 14, 2019 If you had room in your collection for only one Sammy Davis, Jr. album -- and mind you , no one is saying your collection needs any Sammy at all -- you better damn well make sure it 's this one! I'd rate this as one of the finest male vocal records (non-Sinatra division) of all time, right up there with the Tony Bennett & Bill Evans album and the Johnny Hartman & John Coltrane album. Mr. Davis displays on track after track of this album that underneath all the Rat Pack glitz/schtick, there beat the heart of a sensitive song stylist. Beautiful, thoughtful music. Quote

It´s got a lighter touch and it´s more sparse, not like banging all them 88 keys . This is a comfortable trio record and sometimes when I´m tired or exhausted I like to listen to it. Thanks for your view on the Oscar Peterson Trio. Quote

David Ayers Posted September 14, 2019 Report Posted September 14, 2019 Since you can hear this composer so much in concert I generally avoid recordings. I thought these might be cool to dabble in but am finding them a bit underwhelming. Nice sounding but a bit smooth, maybe? Can't deal with recordings of piano concertos (in general) so sticking to symphonies. Meanwhile here's what I've got in the car - on CD, with apologies to Jim for the eventual environmental impact (he's right, he's right - just don't tell him...) Quote
