Men who like.... "Men in My Life" by Alison Fraser,
By John Martin Nolan (Cleveland, OH) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Men in My Life (Audio CD)
We've heard Alison Fraser on recordings before, among them "March of the Falsettos," "Secret Garden," and "Romance, Romance," but never before have I been treated to 20 songs by Alison on one CD."Men in My Life" includes some standards (like "Young at Heart") sung in a way-above-standard style, as well as original works that provide Fraser with the chance to show off her vocal style, range and power. Among my personal favorites are the opening title ("Storyteller"), "Wrong For Me," and a beautiful solo version of "Romantic Notions" from that underplayed musical, "Romance, Romance." With the depth of feeling and range of emotion demonstrated in this performance, it is clear to see (hear?) why Alison Fraser has been repeatedly nominated for awards, recorded, and praised for her onstage work. My only question for Alison is this: When can we expect the next CD? I hope soon (and I might suggest that a Christmas CD would be a welcome addition to the current stock of holiday music available!) Thanks for a GREAT musical experience! John Nolan

Buy this CD!,
By jerhz (US) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Men in My Life (Audio CD)
Alison Fraser's "Men In My Life" is a sexy, smart, brilliantly conceived, well-orchestrated blast of creativity. Alison brings her uniquely sultry and beautifully appealing voice, and her profound hipness to re-examine and re-interpret some old tunes and adds some new ones -- even some she wrote. This CD is remarkably intimate - and somehow blends the best of B'way, pop, and rock into a personal statement that is simply irresistible... and don't miss William Finn's idiosyncratic cut -- his international recording debut!

PURE MUSICAL BLISS,
By Steve B (MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Men in My Life (Audio CD)
Alison Fraser has done a superb job in this album! The vast variety of music she has chosen makes "Men In My Life" an extra-special treat, not only for her loyal fans, but for new listeners as well. With a delightful combination of favorites, and not-so-well-known theatre songs, she sings them all as if they were her children. I have never came across such a diverse album! It is not possible for me to chose a favorite! I love the vice medley, where she sings "Smoke", "Put It On My Tab", "Show Me The Way To Go Home", and "The Pill Song". Then, she goes into "The Passion of Rhoda", a duet with Willaim Finn, from "In Trousers". I listen to the album everyday. While people at school listen to Rap, disgustingly unoriginal pop music, or punk rock, I have my headphones out, listening to Alison. Before school, and before going to bed, it is a wonderful way to start and end the day. Alison Fraser is my absolute favorite actress and singer of all time. I hope she never stops recording new and interesting albums!
