5.0 out of 5 stars Marvelous and inventive, June 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Chameleon (Audio CD)

This recording by Vox One is simply marvelous. I love the syncopated rhythms and unusual chord sequences. The singing is tight and precise, and only the first and last tracks use vocal effects to supplement the singing. "Over the Rainbow" is my favorite recording, a wonderful a cappella twist on the old standard. If you love a cappella music you'll love this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, January 15, 2006

This is both a complex and warm album. Vox On is considered one of the best a cappella groups in the world by those who know this type of music, and this record proves it. The lame review below was clearly from someone who doesn't have the ears to get this group or this type of music. Don't go by this person's obvious chip on the shoulder over what "jazz" is. Vox One isn't trying to copy other groups or perform in the traditional "vocal jazz" style, which I find refreshing. I've seen Vox One live several times and I can tell you they and they are just as amazing live as they are in their recordings. All of their records are equally complex and emotional (in my opinion), and their arrangements are truly groundbreaking. Highly recommended.

I just purchased this CD and I am already in love with it. Each time I listen to it, I like it even more. The harmonies that this group sings are incredible, especially in the CD's haunting finale, Round Midnight. This CD is a great mix of songs. However, I must admit that Vox One is much stronger on ballads than anywhere else. However, I think that this CD would make an excellent addition to any collection.
