Is this album as interesting as most of Andre Previn’s?

I was impressed with “The Man I Love” from the first listen.  Surprising, in a good way.

To be honest, it was a bit disappointing. Most of the tracks were lacking , what for me, was depth and a true jazz sensibility.

Your feedback is well shared.  After purchasing it, I do find the style was a bit commercial without more emotion from the Chevrolet-famous Ms. Shore.  (But that commercial would have benefited possibly with a jazz feel and a scat chorus or two as well.)

3/5 of that band is on the Mark Turner CD I’m currently listening to! 😄 Looks like a great line-up… wish I’d thrown that one into my order as well.

Well have both and beeing a fan of Roberta Gambarini  (very underated singer IMO) incl. some more ( private & official ) recordings.

All I had to do is see someone else listening to Betty Carter on a thread and BAM I had to play one of hers.

This is one of the final ones. . .

Betty Carter “It’s not about the Melody” Verve cd

Just an amazing record with a great cast of players.
