Hit: 5 Stars
The first time I listened to the first few songs on this double Cd, I thought "Oh, NO. I won't listen to this much. What a waste of money." However, Toni Tennille's 'More Than You Know" grew on me. Now I pop it in the car stereo most any time I want to be soothed, just sing along, and then some. Toni Tennile has talent ooozing out her pores, whether she croones or belts them out. There's plenty of both. It's a refreshing change, and I'm glad I bought it. Free Music Review: Toni was born in the wrong era...
Hit: 4 Stars
...she was truly meant to sing this music. I'm a big fan of jazz and swing-era singers, and Tennille can definitely hold her own in this genre. I was never a fan of the Captain and Tennille stuff, but when I heard her sing "More than you know" I was blown away. She may never displace Sarah Vaughan, but she can certainly pull this stuff off.
Another aspect to the first album in this set that makes it remarkable for its time, is that it was recorded live to 2-track. That means very little opportunity for studio gimmickry--they had to nail everything at the same time. I fancy that it gives the album an almost "live" feel, not at all overworked.
And a note about some of the negative reviews--it looks almost as if one individual is, very unethically, posing as several in order to give a multiplicity of bad reviews. Observe the quirky mispelling "emberressing" in the review by "Mr Reiley," and the mispelling "emberressment" in the review by "playboy66". "Voice" is mispelled as "vocie" in both reviews as well. I'm hoping this is just coincidence, but the similarity in grammar and spelling errors between the two reviews is too suspicious not to comment upon.
Free Music Review: An Outstanding Album

"Mr Reiley" and "Playboy66" below are ONE and the SAME person... Look at the "vocie" misspellings!! Sounds like a 16-year-old, anyway. Toni Tennille's renditions are captivating, as I heard it the other day on KCEA radio out of Palo Alto, CA, and immediately wanted to own a copy of the album. Anyone enthralled by this genre of music would be wise to purchase this album, light some candles on a saturday night, make a nice dinner for someone you love, and put it on the CD player!Free Music Review: Better than brilliant!
Hit: 5 Stars
I have to vehemently disagree with the boneheads below that can't tell talent from a hole in the wall. Miss Tennille does a brilliant job injecting emotion and vitality into these old standards. Her approach to these classics is somewhat like Rosemary Clooney and Ella Fitzgerald but she injects the powerhouse vocals of a Linda Ronstadt. If you like those three singers and have appreciated Toni's voice in the past you will not be disappointed in this recording.
