CD Reviews

This cd offers a good selection of standards
Philip Scott | U.S.A. | 12/26/2001
(3 out of 5 stars)

"First I would like to thank Mr. Short for the great songs that he performs on this cd. I have never heard some of these songs sound so good.For this cd Bobby recorded most of the tunes instrumentaly and threw in a couple vocals for good measure, which is fine with me.
Bobby and his band did a wonderful job of reviving these old work horses. These songs were really played well.I would like to see Bobby record some more cds along this line. I would be the first in line to buy them.Recommendation: If you like smooth jazz this cd is for you."
Now this is what I call great cabaret and lounge music...

"I love to drink a martini and smoke my Cuban cigars to this, and thsi alone... This is one of my most treasured lounge cd's, it's a throwback to those classic lp's recorded in the 50's, you know an old fashion make out record. A sophistocated album to amoke and srink, and converse about exotic places far away that you've traveled to. a great coktail party cd, and Bobby is also an exellent jazz musician, probably one of the jazziest of all the cabareters..."
Bobby's Best!

"This is Bobby Short like you've never heard him before. The tracks are more instrumental and the collaborative playing of the entire band sparkles. He gives us new interpretations of some classics in his repertoire, and songs I don't believe he has recorded previously. Bobby Short is not sitting still in the 21st Century, he keeps swinging down a brand new avenue."
