CD Reviews

Pete Kelly's Blues It isn't!

Dr. Robert Hackler | Orlando, Fl. USA | 05/15/2006

(2 out of 5 stars)

"One might think that in ordering this CD one is receiving the soundtrack with Peggy Lee and Ella Fitzgerald from "Pete Kelly's Blues"--well, you're not. At the top of the jacket of the CD, there are small words--too small to read on the order "songs from [Pete Kelly's Blues]." They sing the songs from the film but not the same arrangements and not the original band with Dick Cathcart,Matty Matlock,Nick Fatool and others. They recorded on RCA Victor; this band on Decca, and unless you read Japanese, you can't know who they are. The arrangements for Peggy Lee are too lifeless (especially "O Didn't He Ramble"), although Ella's renditions are faithful to the movie version. If you're a Peggy and/or Ella fan, it's OK, but if you want the authentic jazz from the movie, this is not for you! The words included to the songs are pluses.
