Music reviews of An Affair To Remember
Music Review: "Village Square & Beegie Adair have another winner"
Rating: 5 Stars
Now under a new banner of Village Square Records, Beegie Adair continues to be the master of interpretation of the composers pen...her latest release "An Affair to Remember (Romantic Movie Songs of the 1950's)" is joined by Roger Spencer (bassist), Chris Brown (drummer), Jack Jezzro (guitar), Denis Solee (tenor sax) and The Jeff Steinberg Orchestra...as they perform twelve great movie themes that became standards...tender loving care arrangements presented with the signature style we've come to love from Beegie.
One can hardly pick a stand out, entire compilation draws on lush arrangements with blends of original sentiment and gorgeous melodies...give a listen to the opening cue "AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER", can see Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr standing by the rail on shipboard... and then "THE BAD AND THE BEAUTIFUL", behind the scenes of Hollywood films with electric performances by Kirk Douglas and Lana Turner..."LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDORED THING", once again a love story with Jennifer Jones and William Holden during the war years, have stood the test of time and will go on forever ~ "A CERTAIN SMILE", almost forgotten film but not the title song, featuring Johnny Mathis with one of his biggest hits, appeared in the film with Rossano Brazzi and Joan Fontaine, Beegie's performance on this track is simply haunting..."CHERRY PINK AND APPLE BLOSSOM WHITE", all time favorite for 1955 with the film "Underwater", starring Jane Russell, Gilbert Roland and Jayne Mansfield, classic hit on the charts for Prez Prado and his Orchestra, but this arrangement from Adair serves up an inimitable instrumental style that completely gets under your skin and you're loving every minute of it..."MOONGLOW", from "Picnic", featuring William Holden, Rosiland Russell and the beautiful sexy Kim Novak, the Charles Dunning and Steve Allen tune was on all the airwaves during the '50s..."PETE KELLY'S BLUES", big film for 1955 featuring Jack Webb (actor/director), Janet Leigh, Edmond O'Brien, Lee Marvin, Andy Devine, Jayne Mansfield, and two of my favorite singers also appeared in the film Ella Fitzgerald and Peggy Lee (Lee was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Performance that year), this song is seldom heard, thanks to Beegie and her wonderful interpretation we now have this keepsake treasure..."BLUE GARDENIA", a 1953 film with Raymond Burr, Anne Baxter, Richard Conte, Ann Southern and Nat "King" Cole featured singing at a tiki bar, wonderful arrangement by Steinberg and mesmerizing performance by Beegie, can't get enough of her charisma.
This album plays like fine wine and flows very easily on the ears...once again Jack Jezzro (producer) and Greg Howard (executive producer) deserve more than a five star rating as they come through with a must have for all music lovers and fans of Beegie...arrangements take on many moods with the same sensitivity and tender loving care as her previous albums...the closing song "FASCINATION", from "Love In The Afternoon" brings back fond memories, the wonderful Billy Wilder film with Gary Cooper, Audrey Hepburn and Maurice Chevalier, listen as Beegie and Jeff Taylor on Accordion capture the moment of this light heartwarming story through their performance...a wonderful closing tune for the album...just the way we like 'em!
