Music reviews of Sings the George & Ira
Music Review: The Greatest Sings the Greats
Rating: 5 Stars
No,they aren't all as moving as "Love Walked In" or as exciting as "I Got Rhythm," but Fitzgerald and Gershwin fans have much to love in this collection. Ella gives her finest interpretation to each song and even "Treat Me Rough" has its moments. There are 57 selections, something for everyone, including some of the loveliest love songs ever written; my favorites are "Someone to Watch Over Me" and I must admit, "I've Got a Crush on You." What are yours?
Description of Sings the George & Ira
Ella was at the peak of her powers in '59 when she tackled one of her most ambitious projects: recording dozens of sublime Gershwin songs. Here are 3 CDs of those watershed recordings: Oh, Lady Be Good; Embraceable You; Funny Face; Fascinating Rhythm; Love Walked In; Shall We Dance; They Can't Take That Away from Me; Strike Up the Band; A Foggy Day; They All Laughed; Nice Work if You Can Get It; But Not for Me; Thing Are Looking Up; Fidgety Feet , and more!Jazz CDs
