Free Music Review: It's great Carmen McRae singing Brubeck most famous compositions
Hit: 5 Stars
Maybe you'll dislike this great album if you are a Brubeck fan insisting radically in instrumental takes only.
I tell you you'll be missing something great. Here you'll find Brubeck compositions with lyrics. What such inspired lyrics!
Carmen McRae shows her great ellegant style in Jazz as usual, performing a repertoire hard to sing, maybe more suitable to instrumental approach. To tell you the truth, McRae is unusually great here. She simply makes 'Take Five' her own. She takes full command in 'In Your Own Sweet Way': whoelse could have sung it? She is pure fire in 'It's A Raggy Waltz'. All these three titles came from the 'time out' session when Brubeck offered us a surprisingly beautiful set of jazzy waltzes which became jazz standards.
Great ballads like 'Melanctha' seem to be written for her but the brightest and most beautiful rendition belongs to 'There'll Be No Tomorrow': impressive, sensitive, pure emotion.
This album is a long time desired title in CD format. All live performances with a reasonably good sound.
