Free Music Review: It's Jubilee Time!
Hit: 5 Stars
As the title says, this CD is absolutely essential to all Della Reese fans. This collection spans her early years at Jubilee Records, from 1954 to 1959.
Della was an upcoming superstar, and her very first single (a breezy version of Cole Porter's "In the Still of the Night") sold 500,000 copies, and that is where this collections begins. The compilers did an AMAZING job at collecting the orignal master tapes, and by the grace of God, they managed to dig up almost every single A and B side she recorded for the label.
Della is perhaps best known for taking classic music pieces and adapting them into contemporary pop tunes, but this collection shows a much broader range and diversity of her considerable talents. When you have people like Dinah, Sarah and Ella breathing down your neck, you have to make yourself stand out, so a lot of the arrangements are completely unique, and different.
Della recorded one of the first versions of "I've Got My Love to Keep Warm", which she made completely her own with its frantic pace. Many of these cuts had never been released on CD before, and as the excellent liner notes point out, it wasn't exactly easy to dig up many of these lost recordings. Her gold, million-selling hit, "And That Reminds Me" (Billboard Hot 100 #12), remains a clsssic, but it is far from being the most interesting cut on this album, which is saying something. Check out the incredible "In the Meantime", and the sassy "I've Got a Feelin' You're Foolin'". Another highlight is her swinging rendition of "Once upon a Dream", from Sleeping Beauty.
The sound is absolutely amazing, and the art work is beautiful, so kudos to the compilers for putting so much effort, love, and care, into this project.
