Hit: 5 Stars
Ultra-Lounge: On the Rocks, Pt. 2 is an excellent CD of hits from way back when that can still make the airwaves sizzle today! These tunes are great for mood music and some of them are good for dancing, too. The quality of the sound is excellent and the artwork is very, very nicely done. Great!
The Johnny Mann Singers begin the track set with their hit entitled "Heart Full Of Soul." "Heart Full Of Soul" has that rockin' `60s lounge flavor to it--all wrapped up in one package! They sing and play this to perfection and I'm sure that you will enjoy this opening number very much especially if you like lounge music with vocals. David McCallum's "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" has a great beat that mirrors the hit by The Rolling Stones; and the brass is used very well in the musical arrangement. In addition, "Games People Play" from Mel Torme really works so well on many levels all at once. Mel Torme sings this so well there's no doubt as to why he was revered by fans and his peers alike.
Buddy Morrow does great on his version of "Summer In The City" by The Lovin' Spoonful; the horn work is superb and the overall arrangement is really cool! I really like "Summer In The City;" it's easily a major highlight of this album. Guy Lombardo and His Orchestra do a very solid rendition of "Mrs. Robinson" from the movie called The Graduate with Dustin Hoffman; and listen for a great medley of "Wear Your Love Like Heaven/Workin' On A Groovy Thing" by David Rose and His Orchestra. David Rose was a very talented man and just one listen to this tune proves it amply! Julie London plays along as she delivers "Yummy, Yummy, Yummy" with panache--she was capable of singing ballads that were so much more substantial but I admire the way she plays the good sport and sings this one out proud anyway!
There's a fine medley of "Baby Love/Respect;" "Baby Love/Respect" is performed with lots of feeling by Zacharias. Zacharias really knows their stuff and their talents work well to make the medley of "Baby Love/Respect" another highlight of this album. Mel Torme returns to perform a rousing rendition of "Happy Together;" "Happy Together" features Mel swinging brightly to make this number shine! Mel Torme really could sing just about anything and make it sound grand.
The Hollyridge Strings do their medley of two Beatles tunes, "Can't Buy Me Love/Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band;" this medley uses the brass and strings with the piano to make a terrific melody that is catchy as well. The CD closes nicely with Kurt Russell performing "Sugar Sugar;" this cover of the song by The Archies is excellent and I'm sure The Archies would be proud!
Overall, Ultra-Lounge: On the Rocks, Pt. 2 is a great CD for lounge and mood music fans who like tunes that are either instrumental or with lyrics. I highly recommend this album for these people and newcomers to lounge and mood music will find this CD to be a great introduction.
