Hit: 5 Stars
One of the best, most consistantly compelling albums of Shirley Horn's career. A Cool Jazz Vocal standard against which all other Jazz vocals must be judged. A worthy companion to the better known "Here's to Life".
Shirley had that slowed delivery. In one of his last sessions Miles Davis said "You sure like 'um slow, Shirley" (before 1964, so did he!). Johnny Mandel had particular difficulty slowing down the violins, making them slow enough to match Shirley's "squeeze every ounce of feeling" delivery.
Yeah, many of her late albums sound similar, but so what? When you've got a good formula, stick with it! Even at that, this one stands out. Stunning.
You can't listen to these pieces by anyone else ever again without thinking of these arrangements.
"The Best is Yet to Come" "You're my Thrill", "Solitary Moon" stand out, but the whole album, even with the occasional scooped tone, the whole album doesnt' contain one bad cut. The best version of "Why don't you do Right?" since Jessica Rabbit!
Romantic late night music.
Highest recommendation.
You're My Thrill Poster
On You're My Thrill, vocalist and pianist Shirley Horn teams once again with strings arranger and conductor Johnny Mandel, resulting in yet another spellbinding album that defines romantic ecstasy. Horn's magical ability to imbue the softest utterance with enough emotional poignancy to make a grown man weep is elegantly complemented by Mandel's haunting string arrangements and Horn's longtime trio-mates, bassist Charles Ables and drummer Steve Williams. Songs like "You're My Thrill" and "My Heart Stood Still" find Horn wonderfully capturing the stillness and allure of flickering candlelight. Yet Horn is also friskier on You're My Thrill than on previous albums. If she makes your heart stop on the misty "The Very Thought of You," she'll make your feet tap with joy on her bluesy rendition of "The Best Is Yet to Come" and the sultry "Sharing the Night with the Blues." Here's the stuff that divas are made of. --John MurphJazz Music CDs
