Notes_Norton 1,387 Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) I'm no Barbra Streisand fan but I'm not anti-Barbra either. This is an early work by her, it's passionate, nuanced, and the arrangement behind her is terrific. Her phrasing, emotional take represents the lyrics to the song. She brought it to a nice climax, you can hear the sexual excitement one touch incited. She nailed it on this one.

Notes_Norton 1,387 Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) Another performance that really sells the lyrics of the song. I think of Tom Jones as the UK's Elvis Presley. A great natural singer and a hit with the girls. Ben E King did a very good job on this song, Tom Jones did a great job on this song.

Notes_Norton 1,387 Posted December 6, 2020 (edited) Another singer who expresses the words of the song in his delivery, phrasing, dynamics. Etc. And he's my favorite jazz singer. How Are You Dreaming - Mark Murphy Edited December 6, 2020 by Notes_Norton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Notes_Norton 1,387 Posted December 6, 2020 (edited) The musicianship on this album is awesome. One of the instruments I play is drums, and I am always impressed by Bernard Purdy's playing. He sets up a great groove, supports the song incredibly well, uses tasty fills, and never gets in the way of the song. So today I'm listening mostly for the drums. I've learned a lot listening to Pretty Purdy. The Royal Scam - Steely Dan Edited December 6, 2020 by Notes_Norton 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Notes_Norton 1,387 Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Good choice Bill. Diana is the real deal. Another great jazz gal on piano and vocals is Eliane Elias Call Me - Eliane Elias She's a Brazilian so it's only right to include this Chega De Saudade - Eliane Elias Edited December 7, 2020 by Notes_Norton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
