If you LOVE Disney and Jazz, this is the BEST of BOTH combined!!! Like having cream in your coffee on a Sunny Spring morning! You will love this CD, which includes a song by Grammy Award winning Esperanza Spalding.

This review is from: Everybody Wants to Be a Cat: Disney Jazz, Vol 1 (Audio CD)

A collection of jazz works performed and dedicated to a common theme is too rare these days. Individual artists have taken on Disney tunes before, but in this album, we hear some jazz greats, on separate tracks, including Dave Brubeck, Diane Reeves, Joshua Redman, Esperanza Spalding, Regina Carter, Roy Hargrove, and Roberta Gambarini. The arrangement by Spalding of Chim-Chim Cher-ee is extraordinary, and Alfredo Rodriques does some creative piano work on the Bare Necessities. We also hear the guitars of Kurt Rosenwinkel and Gilad Hekselman. The title says "Vol. 1"; will there be a Volume 2? These musicians did record other tunes to take advantage of this unique opportunity (Brubeck recorded a total of four); hence, if sales warrant, there should indeed be a follow-up album. So, spread the word! This is a very fine album that takes some familiar and not so common Disney (that corporate umbrella covers Pixar, too) melodies and makes them new.

I have quite a few Disney CDs. This is my new Favorite!!! It is great for background music when you're entertaining. Great to listen to at work. I can't wait for the next volume to be released.
