Customer comments on this Youngstown Ohio Book
The best emotions music can provide
I bought the CD a few months ago, bought a few CD's since I thought I liked it. Then I started listening to it, again and again. That's when I started loving it. When I feel sad it makes me happy, when I feel happy it makes me feel happier. It makes you want to dance.
ONE OF THE BEST OSCAR PETERSON CDs. Oscar at his best with a very personal portrait of Frank Sinatra. It is very rare to have a jazzman devote an entire album to a singer (as a portrait) which means O.P. admires Frank sinatra and it shows it the way he plays, the tempo, the heart he puts in it. All songs are brilliant, with a special attention to Witchcraft, Saturday Nights, All of me, It happened in Monterey.
a must for jazz enthousiasts, a must for O.P. fans, a must for Sinatra lovers.
Love It
This is one of the best "Oscar Peterson" CDs I have ever
purchased, and now one of my all time favorite. Oscar Peterson
played every song so beautifully, not to mention the CD sound
quality was very good too. Personally, I think it has a good
concentrated selection of songs that is far better than the
"very best" or the "essential" series. Wonderful.
Old But New!
I purchased this cd a while ago and then ran across a taped copy of Oscar Peterson's "A Jazz Portrait Of Frank Sinatra" from a two LP set out of England. Why they didn't release a two CD set to include the missing 18 songs, I'll never know. Some of the songs are on other CDs, but they are some of Frank's best and are timeless. The current CD, although lacking the original release, is very listenable. One of the best is "Witchcraft". Oscar Peterson is at his best on these recordings.
