 Still Unforgettable (Amazon Exclusive Bonus Track)Sales Rank:630List Price: $18.98 Lowest New Price: $5.99 Lowest Used Price: $5.82 Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5 Total Reviews: 27 Customer Reviews:Rating: 5 THE BEST..... SIMPLY THE BEST...THE MUSICAL "CHARTS" AND HER LYRIC STYLE MAKE EACH SONG A "STANDARD". I THINK THIS ALBUM IS ONE OF HER BEST! Rating: 5 Delightfully jazzy I purchased this album after hearing Natalie's performance of Nice and Easy on Dr. Phil recently. This is an outstanding album. An additional standout track is Coffee Time. Rating: 4 One of her best This is a wonderful collection of Natalie Cole. It includes some new and some old, including some songs mixed like she did "Unforgettable" with her father's voice. One of her best! Rating: 4 Darn good collection of standards Natalie Cole's voice is flawless on this collection of American Standards. Just like UNFORGETTABLE her emotive yet perfectly controlled vocals seemlessly plays with the lush orchestration. The clarity of her voice reminds one of the great Ella Fitzgerald. It's fun to hear her have fun with the uptempo songs, even inject a bit of soulfulness (remember the power-house voice from the 70's?), but it is on the ballards where one feels the full range and color of her deceptively simple vocal style. This is highlighted in "You Go To My Head", "Here's That Rainy Day" and "Lollipops and Roses", where she pulls every bit of emotion out of the lyrics. The songs are possibly the lesser known or remembered standards - the kind of songs that makes the listener initially scratch the brow but then go "oh yeah - I remember this". Orchestration is sometimes a bit expected but nonetheless perfect for Cole's voice. This collection is a great way to introduce young children to great music and wonderful singing. My kids are amazed to hear that the person singing is the same on the 70's classics "This Will Be - An Everlasting" and "I've Got Love". It just goes to show that a great singer can sing anything. Rating: 4 Natalie is a winner Although I don't think this is the best CD Natalie Cole has ever done, it is still very good and pleasant to listen to. I like it better each time I listen to it. She certainly is a credit to the legacy of her father and continues to reach for better performances all the time. May she sing for a long time to come. |
