great performances; unfortunate recording.......2007-06-14
Don't get me wrong - she sings these songs wonderfully. But the recording of her voice is problematic. It buzzes very slightly, particularly when she puts a little oomph into it or reaches for the higher register notes. It's not hugely distorted, but it's enough to catch your ear and make you wonder if you're really hearing what you think you're hearing. The effect is comparable to making her voice just a little bit fuzzy around the edges and stands in stark and striking contrast to the finely detailed recording of the accompanying musicians. On my first listening, I was afraid the problem was in my equipment, that my home listening room speakers had been damaged somehow. Now, after hearing the disc on my car stereo, and through several different pairs of earphones and headphones, I've come to the conclusion the problem is the recording and not my system.
This is especially frustrating when everything else about the disc is great, and frankly it's incomprehensible coming from Telarc. I'd send the disc back for an exchange, but I can't imagine it could be a problem with my particular copy, or even any batch or run of discs. But I could be wrong. If anyone else has had this problem, or if they have the disc and can say without question that their copy does *not* suffer from this effect, please let me know. For reference, I've found it to be most readily audible in "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To" and "These Foolish Things," though it's there for the most part throughout the disc.

"Girl Talk . . . Inconsequential Things That Men Don't Really Care To Know" .......2005-12-07
This recording is a testament that Ms. Bentyne has one of the most exquisite vocals in the jazz scene and her singing style is simply amazing. She is backed up by talented jazz musicians namely: Corey Allen (piano/organ) and he's also the album producer/arranger/director, Kenny Barron (piano), John Patitucci (bass), Lewis Nash (drums), Don Alas (percussion), David Newman (tenor sax), Chuck Mangione (flugelhorn-solo), Mark Kibble and Alvin Chea (background vocals).
My personal favorites include one of the greatest songs ever written and composed by George and Ira Gershwin - "They Can't Take That Away From Me" which features the wonderful flugelhorn playing of one of my favorite jazz artists, Chuck Mangione, who is famous for his hit tune "Feels So Good."
You'll also enjoy listening to Ray Noble's beautiful song "The Very Thought Of You," which according to Ms. Bentyne is her very favorite song from this collection. It's so remarkable and this is the best female vocal version I've heard so far.
Her charming interpretation of "Love Me Or Leave Me" gave this song a whole new style and elegance. "These Foolish Things" is so delightfully sentimental that I had to hit the repeat button and listen to it again and again and again. Ditto with "It Might As Well Be Spring," which has a Latin flavor, kind of mambo-ish rhythm to it that makes it a real sheer beauty. I truly adore this version. The intro and arrangements are somewhat similar to "Shaker Song."
And . . . my absolute number one choice from this collection is "Girl Talk," a song composed and penned by Bobby Troup and Neal Hefti. Her interpretation and the arrangement are so sublime and I just loved the chorus. But let me tell you, I guess they love shopping for clothes, purses and shoes more than engaging in "Girl Talk." At least speaking for myself - I just have that "Mind Your Own Business!" philosophy.
"We like to chat about the dresses we will wear tonight
We chew the fat about our tresses and the neighbor's fight
Inconsequential things that men don't really care to know
Become essential things that women find so apropos
It's just a dame, we're all the same
It's just a game, we call it "Girl Talk"
"Girl Talk" . . .
We all 'meow' about the ups and downs of all our friends
The who, the how, the why
We dish the dirt, it never ends
The goddess touch, they love so much
All mortal males behold
And though we joke, we wouldn't trade you
For a ton of gold
So Honey stay, don't walk away
Just hear me say that after "Girl Talk,"
Talk to me."
In conclusion, I heartily recommend this jazzy and classy CD for your listening pleasure. It's the kind of music you will love to listen to forever and a day!
P.S. I couldn't wait until I get hold of her "Moonlight Serenade" CD.

Album Description
Holiday blues comin' on? Well, put a spike in `em! Here's the zaniest, wildest and just plain sickest Collectors' Choice Music exclusive yet79 tracks from Spike Jones and his City Slickers! These represent Spike's complete Standard Transcription sides, but these tunes are anything but standard; Mr. Jones brought his full bag of tricks for these non-commercial recordings (made in Hollywood during the early `40s). Add to that the fact that most of these have never been on CD or even LP, and any lover of Spike's mayhem-filled mixture of laughs and hot licks is going to flip over this set! Notes and great pictures accompany this 3-CD walk on the wacky side from the greatest novelty band of all time.Customer Reviews:
