Music reviews of Introducing Roberta Sherwood
Music Review: Years of searching rewarded
Rating: 5 Stars
I have been a fan of Roberta Sherwood's unique voice and style for years. My vinyl albums are so noisy they're unplayable but apparently no one had released anything of hers on CD. This release is excellent: great sound and choice of cuts including two and possibly three of her albums. Excellent liner notes too. Sherwood is jazzy and bluesy; has a great vocal range and an unmistakable vocal quality. Her rendition of "Cry Me a River" is classic.
Description of Introducing Roberta Sherwood
She Wasn't Young, Glamorous and Didn't have a Beautiful Voice - but in 1956, a Bespectacled Suburban Housewife Rose from Years of Obscurity to Become an Overnight Sensation as a Consummate Torch Singer and Nightclub Performer. Widowed at a Young Age, She Pursued Singing Jobs, Few and Far Between for a 40 Year Old. She Got a Job Singing at a Miami Beach Club. She Would Beat a Battered Old Cymbal with a Wire Brush, a Technique that Would Become One of her Most Revered Trademarks. She Wore a Sweater Over her Shoulders Because of the Air-conditioning and She Kept her Glasses on So She Wouldn't Trip Walking to the Stage. Once There, that Magical Husky Voice and Dynamic Personality Became Mesmerizing. This Set features Sherwood's First Two Albums ("Introducing Roberta Sherwood" and "Show Stoppers") with the Addition of Three Bonus Tracks from Singles.General CDs
