Jazzmatazz, that was the site.

Great performance. Don't know about the official release, though.

Right on both counts! I'm still not convinced about her phrasing of lyrics, at least not consistently, but that's as much about taste as it is skills, if not more.

Seconded, thirded, etc. At some point, "pop song" becomes "art song", and exactly what defines that point is not something about which I care to speculate right now, but it is a point that I believe is reached on that album.

I'd never want to be a kid again. Never. But I never want to forget what it was like being one.

That is an almost criminally/sinfully/whatever sublime album...

This indeed a fine album, and they are indeed fine charts, but I would take issue with that particular contention. Jobim's American solo albums are are pretty nifty, with the CTI sides being, dare I say it...sublime. As far as chartage goes, can I assume that you are familiar with the Claus Ogermann charts for the first Sinatra/Jobim collaboration?

No, str. When you cover a song you use the melody too.

Claire Fisher's take on it was pretty interesting as well.

Really? No wonder they cuted it all up!

The original, by Brenda Holloway...I didn't know about this one until relatively recently, just the last 5 years or so. Did the Black Crowes version of "Hard To Handle" trigger any recognition for Otis's version?

That Tom Cat looks like a Devil Cat!

I got no problem with this one, myself:

Well, if you take in all the new issues by the post-revival Blue Note, that's a lot of stuff, much less than the reissues... and a list would be nice.

Are you wanting OOP BN reissues, or everything BN?

You Made Me So Very Happy And some of those on the list, like "I Think We're Alone Now", if you didn't know they were covers, it's probably because you're young (or old) enough to have an excuse. Anyway, the best cover of that one is by The Rubinoos. No contest.

Your arms too short to box David Murray!

She was the first to record "Moon Beams", right?
