Vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, who successfully translated John Coltrane's "sheets of sound" approach to the vibes, became the acknowledged master of that instrument when Milt Jackson died in 1999. A veteran of many historic Blue Note dates, a bit player in the movie Round Midnight, and founding member of the SF Jazz Collective, Hutcherson calls this mostly ballads CD, with pianist Renee Rosnes, bassist Dwayne Burno, and drummer Al Foster, his "love record." All of his powers are evident here: his melodic fluency, vast harmonic imagination, and his incredible ability to make the vibes sing. Like Lester Young, Hutcherson knows how to melodically tell a story, as evidenced by his shimmering takes on the Latin-tinged "Ode to Angela," and "I Wish I Knew," his sumptuous piano duet on the Bernstein/Sondheim classic "Somewhere," and his heartbreaking, solo number "I'll Be Seeing You," Hopefully we'll be seeing and hearing from this genius more often. --Eugene Holley, Jr.

Like Fine Wine.............2007-07-19
Bobby Hutcherson really doesn't say much between songs when playing live. His focus is on the mood and the music and he speaks through his vibraphone. Breathing through pursed lips as the tones from his instrument resonate throughout the room, he will occasionally smile as Renee Rosnes impresses him with the textures she overlays. There is always that undertone of sophistication and subtle humour. I especially like when he ends a song emphatically by striking a low single note at the bottom of the register on his vibes. Take that!
Having caught five sets of Bobby's band over the last year from locales as distant as Vancouver to New York I was fortunate to have gained an appreciation for what was to become the CD, For Sentimental Reasons. Little did I know when I caught Bobby at Dizzy's Club Coca Cola last November that he and the band were recording the new CD. I think one of the sets that stands out the most for me was a Saturday night at the Blue Note during his CD release party this past June. What a treat.
The song, For Sentimental Reasons, is just that....sentimental. Ode to Angela is a breezy workout by the band, a great driving song. Listen to how Renee fills in the spaces around Bobby's playing on Embraceable You, Dwayne and Al provide a tasty backdrop. Along Came Betty steps out from the ballads, it is a pleasant groove that builds on the solos of Bobby and Renee. Somewhere is reminiscent of Manhattan Mo

Ronstadt's credibility grab.......2007-03-22
5 stars, 4, 3 maybe - I so go back and forth!
(Note: Elektra hasn't put the 'trilogy' together in one package yet, but I'm reviewing as if they have.)
Poor Nelson Riddle - had to DIE to finally get his picture on the album art!
He's the main artist working the magic here, and he does a lovely job updating his sound for the seductive 80's - especially that glistening electric guitar!
Ronstadt was SUCH a major radio menace with all her soulless pop hits, it's a shocker she got the courage to take on the Sinatra songbook - and miracle she does as well as she does.
No, she doesn't have Sinatra's vulnerability, dignity or pathos (who does?), she's got her technical precision, though - and that's a fine enough basis for the endeavor.
Ronstadt is weakest on the big, bad suicide songs ("Goodbye," "'Round Midnight," etc.) but comes off charming as all get-out on the fluffier ditties ("Falling In Love Again," "For Sentimental Reasons," etc.). Swoon.
Consider this cordial music, dreamy music, lingerie music. It's credible, even delicious at times.
Romantic music.......2007-01-10
Very enjoyable mood and listening music. We previously owned the albums on records. We are enjoying these wonderful renditions with Nelson Riddle's orchestra again.
Great Sound.......2006-08-24
This album is very good but her first "oldies" with the N.R. orchestra still remains my favorite.
Great Music, Great Vocalist.......2006-07-27
Love the music of that Era and love the arrangements of Nelson Riddle.
This is a Ten-Star Album.......2006-06-30
If you have ever been in love, if you love listening to great music, if you want to linger a bit in the past with wonderful love songs and unsurpassed artists, THEN BUY THIS ALBUM. How can you possibly lose? The artful direction of Nelson Riddle, combined with ageless, moving love songs sung superbly by Linda Ronstadt - ladies and gentlemen - it doesn't get any better than this! In fact, if you want a collection of absolutely beautiful love songs, get all three albums by Ronstadt and Riddle: What's New; Lush Life; and For Sentimental Reasons. There is life after LP albums - thank heavens for remastered CD's. Great music forever saved. BUY THIS ALBUM NOW!

Nostalgia.......2007-05-31
As a singer, I'm always looking for new (or old) material and in this wonderful CD, Sentimental Journey, by the incomparable Miss Beegie Adair, I've found fabulous new presentations of matchless WW2 songs. There are 12 songs on this CD and I've taken 6 of them for my own interpretation. These are the nostalgic songs that our parents danced and romanced to in the 40's and they're just as beautiful today. Beegie brings them to life again, not that they ever went away, but to listen to her brilliant playing of I'm Getting Sentimental Over You; Sentimental Journey; It's been a Long,Long Time; You'll Never know and I'll Be Seeing You is a very moving experience. Long live Brilliant Beegie !!
Beegie is Great.......2007-04-11
Beegie Adair is one great jazz pianist. If you like jazz and like WWII music, buy this CD.
Wonderful!.......2006-10-16
This is the best. It's so pleasing to listen to. I had heard it twice before I purchased it and remember thinking what cheerful, uplifting music it is. It lifts my mood each time I play it. Someone mentioned that it was good dinner music, I would whole heartedly agree. In fact, I am online now to buy one for my sister for her birthday. She is an artist, she wants to have this on while she works.

Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None
Palm Tungsten W Styra - Ballpoint Pen - Stylus Replacement - 3 in 1 Stylus Upgrade
: that interior knockdown, drag-out struggle of a slightly warped man in a totally insane world.
Overall, this is the warped boy's hardest rocking disc. After a much publicized stint in rehab for drug and alcohol abuse, this was a "comeback" album designed to show that he had indeed gotten up off the canvas swinging! For me, the standout tracks are :
BOOM BOOM MANCINI -- A thunderous anthem to the lion-hearted, Youngstown, Ohio pugilist. It is driven by an appropriately over-amped, bruising guitar hook and uppercut! I can still remember the car radio announcement that informed me of Mancini's 14 round loss to Alexis Arguello in 1981. I bawled for the brawler. But then I was "LIQUIDATED" at the time - some evil man at Dodger Stadium having sold me 2 beers an inning for 9 innings. (Don't hate me; I wasn't driving!)
THE WAR-IN-ZEVON : "Some have the speed and the right combinations; if you can't take the punches, it don't mean a thing."
RECONSIDER ME -- A plaintive and moving ballad sung straight on the rocks....no "twist."
THE WAR-IN-ZEVON : "If it's still the past that makes you doubt, darlin' that was then and this is now. Reconsider me."
BAD KARMA -- A very funny song about picking up the gauntlet thrown down by life and coming to grips with disillusionment.
THE WAR-IN-ZEVON : "Was it something I did in another life? I try and try but nothing comes out right for me. Bad karma, killing me by degrees."
EVEN A DOG CAN SHAKE HANDS -- Ya gotta love the enthusiastic energy of this one. It starts out with "YEAH!! WOO-OOO!! HEEEEEY!!" Good stuffs about the tie-wearing parasites in the music biz. Now, if you've lived in L.A., you know that the San Fernando Valley is where you take up residence just prior to limping out of town with yer head down and yer tail tucked between yer legs. So it's pretty funny when our singer is warned to play the game properly or he'll "end up dead, living in The Valley someday." As though the two are synonymous.
THE WAR-IN-ZEVON : Abandon all hope and don't rock the boat, and we'll all make a few hundred grand. Everybody's trying to be a friend of mine. Even a dog can shake hands."
THE HEARTACHE -- Another ballad on the rocks, no "twist." The subject is unrequited love, which in common parlance means, "unsuccessful open-heart surgery." The Heartache contains one of the greatest lines in song : "THERE'S A SADNESS IN THE HEART OF THINGS." This one line has haunted me ever since I first heard it in 1987. In all these years, not a month has passed that I didn't find myself silently reciting it in response to some unfortunate situation, or while merely contemplating the setting of the sun. If you don't get it, then consider yourself lucky and rejoice in your insensitivity.
THE WAR-IN-ZEVON : "There's a sadness in the heart of things," of course! Why, it's only the most poignant moment on the entire album!
I rarely award 5-Stars, but I could have given SENTIMENTAL HYGIENE 4-Stars if the songs that I don't care for, I felt merely neutral about. But I actively dislike DETOX MANSION, Zevon's noisy, irreverent attempt to make light of his drug and alcohol rehab. To plagiarize one of his earlier songs : "It ain't that funny at all." The attempt at humor sounds forced. I once wrote a poem called, 'The League Of Soul Crusaders' which included the lines, "THESE BOYS DON'T CRY WHEN THEY SHOULD / AND LAUGH / WHEN THEY SHOULDN'T." Detox Mansion is a prime example.
One of my pet peeves in music is when lifelong Rock Stars with Champagne and Brie on their breath sing about the tough life of 'the working man.' Boys, give it a rest! Don't let your conscience convince you that we need to hear your understanding. If you want to sing to us about how difficult it is to have 13 groupies a night, but only 2 hotel suites, or how the bad roadie forgot to remove the brown M&Ms from the backstage candy bowl, or how room service is too slow at the Hilton, fine. But don't be telling us about punching a time clock with the bossman looking over your shoulder! Don't gripe about the 8 to 5 'blue collar' life because you don't know it like we do! (Are you listening Paul Simon, Jackson Browne & Bruce Springsteen?) Zevon commits this cardinal Rock Music sin in the unconvincing and unmusical THE FACTORY. Aside from all that, the first four lines are poorly conceived : "I was born in '63 / Got a little job in the factory / I don't know much about Kennedy / I was too busy working in the factory." (Give that some real thought.)
Overall, SENTIMENTAL HYGIENE is a very solid effort. His self-titled, WARREN ZEVON, however, remains his essential release, which includes his real masterpiece, DESPERADOS UNDER THE EAVES, and CARMELITA with its reference to the infamous "Pioneer Chicken Stand." Which, incidentally, once stood on the Southeast corner at Alvarado and Montana Streets in L.A., a few blocks north of Echo Park. The spot is now just the upper corner of the Vons Supermarket parking lot. But if any of you Zevon diehards ever make the pilgrimage to this 'legendary' location, don't tell anyone that you heard from Stephen T.; I hear they're still hunting me.
Warren Zevon is a Hindu Love God.......2004-05-03
The late Warren Zevon was one of America's great songwriters. His acidic wit and poignant prose is fueled here by his recent detox visit to the Betty Ford Center and his newfound kinship with REM, who backed him on this release(and also recorded with him as the HINDU LOVE GODS). Getting clean and sober never rocked so good as it does here. Zevon's smokey baritone voice is in top form, the production is supreme and there are contributions from the usual suspects (Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Brian Setzer, George Clinton)
The name of the game is be hit and hit back.......2004-03-15
After battling addiction to drugs and alchohal, Warren Zevon returned from a worrying absense...with his strongest album yet (and possibly ever). Of all the album he ever made, this is rocks the hardest and his songwriting returned with renewed power. For the most part, he is backed by the musicians of R.E.M., who had not yet achieved their full success. The songwriting, however, is almost all his and it shows, despite the plethora of guest stars.
He starts out with the strong steady kick of the title track, proclaiming that he 'needs some Sentimental Hygiene' and musing that 'everybody's at war these days'. A strong tune (Neil Young plays lead guitar) but nothing amazing for Zevon. 7/10 stars.
'Boom-Boom Mancini', the second song, is possibly the heaviest rock song he ever wrote and paints a dark (and true) storyscape of the famous boxer (who apparently, after hearing this song, became good friends with Zevon). One of his best, darkest songs ever. 10/10.
'The Factory', a Springsteen-ish number with BobDylan on harmonica, is catchy (try to not like him shout 'yes, sir, no, sir' as loud as he can during the chorus). 7/10.
'Trouble Waiting To Happen', written with J.D Souther, is plainly about his addiction. 'The mailman brought me the Rolling Stone. It said I was living at home alone. I read things I didn't know I'd done. It sounded like a lot of fun.' Depressed but witty. 9/10.
'Reconsider Me' is one of the few ballads on the albums and also one of the best he'd ever written. Reportedly, when asked if he had ever written songs personal enough for him to consider not using them, he pointed at once to this song. It's easy to see why, as he begs someone, perhaps everyone, to reconsider him and promises that he'll 'never make them sad again'. He seems to be speaking of his addiction again, especially when he says 'if it's the past that make you doubt, darling, that was then and this is now'. Excellent. One of his best. 10/10.
'Detox Mansion', written with long-time callaborater Jorge Calderon, is a joky look at how his alchohal detox. Funny, with a bitter side hiding under the numorous jokes and puns. 10/10.
'Bad Karma' finds him blaming the fates for his mifortune. Michael Stipe, the lead singer of R.E.M., joins his bandmates to sing the harmony on this and the music includes a sitar. Zevon wails that he can't get away from his fate and wonders what he did to deserve it. Dark. 8/10.
'Even A Dog Can Shake Hands' is the only song on the album that Warren Zevon actually wrote with R.E.M. It's one of his quirkiest rockers, filled with witty indictments of the way Hollywood and the music business work. Funny. 9/10.
'The Heartache' finds Warren Zevon joined by Jennifer Warnes to sing a sad tale of loving someone who does not share your affection. 9/10.
'Leave My Monkey Alone' is a dark, funky tale about Kenya and the Mau Mau inscurrectionists. It features Flea (of the Red Hot Chili Peppers) on bass and was produces and arranged by George Clinton. 10/10.
The bonus tracks are hardly essential or great new additions. 'Nocturne' is awful, a mess of random synthasizer sounds that sounds as thought he was fooling randomly around on his keyboard. The Spanish version of 'Leave My Monkey Alone' is interesting and features some slightly different music and more jungle noises.
All in all, the best from a man who seemed unable to produce anything truly bad. It should be the first in your Warren Zevon collection, along with 'Excitable Boy'.

beautiful.......2006-03-16 This is a beautiful album that does just what it implies in the title. It takes you on a sentimental journey of beautiful music and memories of times gone by. Ringo is a talented drummer, but I also love to listen to him sing!
Ringo- the trendsetter.......2006-02-12 Long before it was fashionable for rock stars to record albums of American standards, Ringo released this in 1970. Linda Rondstadt, Boz Scaggs and Rod Stewart were all just getting their "rock" careers started and doing this type of work was many years away for all of them.
As for Ringo's standards, they are well chosen (many would turn up on later standards releases) and well produced by the likes of George Martin, Paul McCartney, and Quincy Jones. Ringo sings them well , maybe surprisingly well to some, and proves he can drum to something other than rock. He hasn't done another set of standards but it would be welcome.
NOSTALGIC RETRO CLASSIC.......2005-03-21 Ringo and Harry (Nilsson) did it long before Rod Stewart's "Great American Songbook" collection. A great song is just that! It lives and thrives as it passes from generation to generation. Call it tradition, call it historic, I call it pure fun even with the archaic electronics which adds to the album's "dated" quality. My mother, God bless her curly permed head, turned me on to some great music! (She would buy the records after I would whine about 'needing' to hear something/anything) This record was easy to get her to buy because of the song selections. It certainly remains a "Sentimental Journey". It was and is a moment in time...the Beatles were passing into the future, Ringo took a look back before moving forward.

Album Description
Doris Day's biggest hit, 'Sentimental Journey' was recorded while she was a vocalist in Les Brown's band in the mid-1940s. Highlights from these two original albums on one compact disc include 'Fly Me To The Moon' and 'The More I See You.' (Collectables)
Customer Reviews:
Classic 1965 recordings.......2007-01-13 Highly polished, studio recordings -- with a bit too much reverb for me. It was all the rage at the time. My opinion are the recordings she made with Nelson Riddle and Harry Zimmerman are better. The "Sentimental Journey" track on this recording is probably the one you know and love from radio play.
Simply Timeless.......2005-03-09 Growing up with Doris Day music and movies, I knew the simple fact that here was a woman that could sing, act, dance, look beautiful and make me smile or tear up with each performance. Then one evening a year ago I was watching a performance of my daughter's High School Ball Room Dance team (which is now a hot sport amongist teenagers) perform, and a song came on they were dancing to that blew me away. When I asked the coach who was singing it, I found out it was Doris Day's recording of "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps". No girl next door here, this song simply sizzled. The other tunes on this CD are great, but for this song alone I would buy this. Doris Day movies or music are simply timeless.
One word is all I need: Beautiful!.......2004-06-25 This is not the first Doris Day CD someone should buy; you should start with one of her greatest-hits CDs such as "Golden Girl" (which I've earlier reviewed). But if, after listening to this, you decide you want to hear more of that great voice, this should be one to get early. It's truly a beautiful example of what Doris could do.
Most of Doris Day's big hits were in the 1950s; this CD represents a Doris Day of about 10 years later. It is a combination of two LPs which she recorded two months apart in 1964 and Columbia released (the second-recorded one first!) in 1965. So it's a slightly more mature Doris Day, but just as nice to listen to as the Doris of the 1950s.
The two LPs combined in this CD are actually two quite different sets of tunes. "Doris Day's Sentimental Journey" consists of a collection of songs that were old standards even in 1964, plus a remake of her very first hit, the title tune of the album, done in a rather different style from the 1940s version. "Latin for Lovers" contains a number of songs that were mostly fairly new in 1964 (some of which might be called standards now!) with Latin origins. (Some were composed by the man who introduced the bossa nova to the USA, Antonio Carlos Jobim.) Only one of the songs on "Latin for Lovers" was one I'd heard Doris do: "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps" ("Quizas, Quizas, Quizas" in the original Spanish). All the songs on both LPs, now on one CD, reminded me of why I've always considered Doris my favorite singer; every single one is done beautifully.
What more can I say? Of course it gets 5 stars! I wish I could give it six!
Voice without peers.......2003-06-25 I remembered her voice as just one of those flashy voices from Hollywood movies.Alas,those were mostly in mono and simply had yet to discover the true virtue of her voice.
Then in Amsterdam I found some great soundtracks with old works from Henry Mancini.Next to his works was some this rather shy album of Doris Day.
When I heard her interpretation of * Three coins in the fountain & Quiet nights of quiet stars *,I couldn't believe my ears. Her voice has such profound timbre with such grade delicacy of
the acoustic instrument, one just brought to life by finest artisan alive. Her voice is so vibrant and resonant like any voice I have heard before.
I asked my friends at my home to listen some music on my system and I asked them who is finest female voice on the planet? Some said Billie Holiday , Ella Fitzgerald....list goes on.
With some reservation I said for me it is from now on Doris Day.
Needles to say that made them laugh until they have heard sheer delicacy of her voice.
Without any reservation,with experience in classical music and Jazz, her voice is among finest voices, period. It is a great pity that she didn't extend range of her materials more into demanding materials of Jazz standards. I'm scare to think what kind of the treat that would be.
Her voice is like a finest High-End audio instrument, depending only on quality of material. If you treat the same with care it will reward you with delight. Ribbon speaker owners and those with generally fine systems, listen for these two songs on
this album. It will define you standards, what can you expect in human voice. In this case. exquisite,profound and unique voice of Doris Day.
In today mediocrity of quality in almost every sphere of human awareness,let her voice remind you that some things posses a true substance.

pressible Dee Dee Bridgwater on two songs, including a freewheeling "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen," and the charismatic Carla Cook on three tunes, including a darkly glowing "St. Louis Blues." Teaming to warmly atmospheric effect part of the time with clarinetist Paquito D'Rivera and accordionist Gil Goldstein, Carter readily avoids easy nostalgia, whether basking in the childlike delights of "A-Tisket, A-Tasket," "Little Brown Jug" and "Anitra's Dance" (the Peer Gynt classic, taken from the great '30s bandleader John Kirby's arrangement), or the more sophisticated of emotion of Duke Ellington's "Blue Rose" and "I'll Be Seeing You." Produced by John Clayton, the album doesn't rise to the heights of Freefall, Carter's 2001 duo recording with pianist Kenny Barron, but its easygoing qualities win out over the slick high conceptualism of some of her other efforts. --Lloyd Sachs
Customer Reviews:
What you get is what you see.......2007-06-13 As the title of the album and the somewhat, well, kitschy cover indicate, this CD is indeed a sort of sentimental journey through the musical past... From my point of view, it is only a pitty the affair is not a little less sentimental and a little more swinging.
Regina Carter has a beautiful tone, but I feel she is not really a swinger (I guess more modern forms of jazz are more her domain). The accordeonist Goldstein also weighs things down a bit, but this still doesn't mean you shouldn't buy this CD, particularly if you're not a die-hard fan of really swinging violinists (ellegant Stephane Grappelli, rugged Ray Nance, joyous Svend Assmusen and others).
And, to ensure at least 4 stars for this album, there is the versatile Cuban Paquito D'Rivera, who at times really shows adequate swinging passion on his clarinet and finally, but by no means unsignificantly, there are two tracks with Dee Dee Bridgewater who can really cook a swinging storm with her voice and push the other musicians to their limits and beyond ...
All in all, not a bad CD, falling somewhere between nostalgia and swing.
Incredible! Incredible! Incredible!.......2007-03-09 Regina Carter is perhaps the most amazing jazz violinist of this period.I have all of her recordings and this is one of my favorites. I just can't get tired of it.
An Awesome Journey.......2006-08-19 My husband and I love it. Ms. Carter plays with such emotion. She is truly an artist who can interpret a piece of music and make it her own. We are so glad that she went back into the studio to record after the recent death of her Mom.
This recording rates right up there with Rhythms of the Heart and Paganini: After a Dream.
Stellar.......2006-07-25 Regina Carter's violin appears in places with Mary J. Blige (My Life cd) and and Wynton Marsalis (Blood on the Fields), so you could say her versatility is unquestionable. I love to notice where artists like her show up discretely in liner notes in a variety of places and listen to their chameleon-like virtuosity evolve through their own choices. She has recorded some fabulous music with her violin but here she seems to find her own sincere voice and her own spiritual sentimentality without geting too wax nostaligic (for example on "A-Tisket A-Tasket"). My favorite track is "How Ruth Felt" because it's both awkward and grounded at the same time and seems to capture some of the relationship she must have had with her late mother to whom she dedicated the cd.

Album Description
The guitar has played a major part in the evolution of Brazilian music, especially during the twentieth century. On this recording the charm, beauty and sensuality of Brazilian guitar music can be heard in pieces as diverse as Marco Pereira's Pixaim, a fast rhythmic dance originating from North-East Brazil, João Pernambuco's cheeky Blackbird, the classic song Girl from Ipanema by Antonio Carlos Jobim, a founder of the Bossa Nova movement and, from Brazil's most famous composer, Heitor Villa-Lobos, the hauntingly lyrical Sentimental Melody, written for the film Green Mansions in 1957. Award winning guitarist, Graham Anthony Devine was born in England and, in his teens, moved to Brazil where he has become an established performer and teacher, giving many recitals and masterclasses throughout South America. He is a laureate of many international guitar competitions in Europe and the United States.
Customer Reviews:
Lesser known guitarist wins me over.......2005-04-07 I got this disc on an impulse, trying to add to my slowly growing collection of classical guitar music. This is one impulse buy I do not regret! The selections are very mellow and relaxing, and they seem to mesh together well as if logically following one another. Graham Anthony Devine is truly "Devine" in my book. His technique is awe-inspiring, and his phrasing is subtle and precise. It's obvious he is enjoying himself a great deal playing this music. His disc has quickly become one of my all-time favorites. As a guitarist he ranks right up there with the very best and can easily be compared to John Williams or Pepe Romero, among others. Highly recommended!
