Rosemary Clooney was a remarkable singer whose true recognition for her versatility and vocal phrasing came during the last twenty-five years of her life. In this two disc set from Concord Records, the depth and wonder of her voice are revealed for the jazz listening audience.
Disc 1 has 15 selections. Among them are found such songs as "Hey, There," "I've Got A Crush On You," "Meditation," "Will You Still Be Mine?," "Cheek to Cheek," and "I'm Beginning To See The Light." Disc 2 has 17 selections. Among them are the songs "Straighten Up And Fly Right," "Nice N' Easy," "The Coffee Song," "Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams," "Sentimental Journey," "Let's Get Away From It All," and "People Will Say We're In Love."
For the jazz listener who likes the jazz vocals of Rosemary Clooney in a Big Band setting, and for those wishing to have a nice 2 CD set of her songs over the years, this is a great item to have in the home library, as a gift for that special friend, and as a collection placed in your local Public Library for library patron enjoyment. Rosemary Clooney had a memorable voice, and this 32 song collection shares that intimate voice's magical sensitivity with the audience.
Highly recommended. This 2 CD set is a must-have for Rosemary Clooney fans.
