Music reviews of The Art of Tea

Music Review: Classic Michael Franks
Rating: 5 Stars

Although this was Michael Franks' second album ( he released the lesser known "Previously Unavailable" in 1973), "The Art Of Tea" album truly jump started Franks' career as a pop/jazz vocalist. Produced by Tommy LiPuma (well known for his work with Miles Davis, George Benson, & Diana Krall), this cd has all the makings of what true singing & songwriting are all about. What I really love about this album is the range of styles on each track. Franks can go from swing ("Jive", "Popsicle Toes") to R&B ("Monkey See-Monkey Do") to a pop-orientated ballad ("I Don't Know Why I'm So Happy I'm Sad") all within one album. Maybe there are a few exceptions, but you don't find range like that in today's cd's. His voice can be as soothing as an enviornmental cd, & that's a compliment. If you like this one, definetely check out "Sleeping Gypsy" (my personal favorite), "Burchfield Nines" (another favorite), "Tiger In The Rain", & "One Bad Habit". In closing, you can't go wrong with any of Michael Franks' cd's. But all of his 70's albums are perfect for those relaxing moments alone, or with someone special.
