mature music,
By
This review is from: Like Someone in Love (Audio CD)
my all time favorite album, i play it almost everyday. if you are comtemplating the purchase of your first ella fitzgerald cd, this is great place to start. it is beautiful music that any adult listener can enjoy.a fine collection of jazz and pop standards sung with incredible beauty. it must have been a songwriters dream to have ella sing one of your compositions.she respects the melody and composers intentions while still improvising with taste and imagination.while difficult any cuts my favorites are there's a lull in my life, i tought about you and what's new. trust me, you will love it.

Beautiful Music,
By A Customer
This review is from: Like Someone in Love (Audio CD)
This album is simply gorgeous. Beautiful ballads beautifully sung by a master (forgive the term) of her craft. Anyone interested in Ella Fitzgerald's music should certainly also become familiar with the generous assortment of traditional jazz, swing and uptempo standards she has recorded, but this album is a unique assortment of standards in which Ella manages to perfectly balance the beauty, the melancholy, the hope, the despair, the many shadings of romantic love. Frank DeVol's flawless orchestrations are a perfect complement to a magnificent vocalist at the top of her form.

Ballads By One Of The Best,
By
This review is from: Like Someone in Love (Audio CD)
There's not too much more to say that hasn't already been said. This album was originally recorded about 1957 and has Stan Getz guesting on about 4 tracks. Although, Ella turned out some fine songbooks, this is the only album (still call them that....since my original was on vinyl) that I have where she sings strictly ballad standards with an orchestral background. Her voice was great, the delivery is smooth and appealing, and the cd is definitely late night music for relaxing or romancing.If ballads, Ella, standards, vocals with orchestral backgrounds are your thing..... any one or in combination......you can't go wrong with this!
