How can any Johnny Hartman recording be only one star...?

"Yes, there are other Johnny Hartman recordings I enjoy more, but the other reviewer's comments demand a response. There are too many very good songs on this CD for such a poor review. Many times when one has fallen in love with certain types of arrangements, one can be too quickly critical of another's approach...Just relax, you've got one of the great voices of this world singing to you, how can you be disappointed?"

Because it's Johnny, it hurts

"Johnny is my favourite of all time. I can't believe I'd rate anything of his one star but this album is bad. It hurts to hear Johnny wasted with this , I can only assume, vanity project of the song writers."

A poor attempt at marketing a great voice with a 70's flair

"Really disappointed as this was a total departure from the great orcestration of the other works. It lacks soul, jazz and originality. Like that one Tony Bennett song you hate in an album of great hits except expanded for 45 minutes."
