When I Fall in Love
»rank: 587
0ur Review: :This is not the typical example of an artist from another genre jumping on the crowded standards-and-ballads bandwagon. When l Fall in Love instead represents an instrumental stylist busting out of a box to find a much more suitable platform for his craft. These tracks are the fruits of an obvious labor of love for everyone from the featured musicians to the arrangers to the engineers. The arrangers, particularly Billy Childs and Gil Goldstein, give Botti's trumpet ...

Filled with second-line arrangements and fierce horn charts that could blow all that holiday chill back to Canada, Connick's latest revisits upbeat standards such as 'Frosty The Snowman,' 'Blue Christmas,' 'Santa ...

0ur Review: :Nina Simone was one of those controversial figures American pop music puts forward from time to time, with the notable exception that she started her controversy earlier in the 196Os than, say, Bob Dylan. To see this African-American woman get angry about the racial situation in her country, right there on stage, was a shock to people who'd come to hear her sing 'l Loves You, Porgy.' Not that she cared; she figured that it was ...
