Steve and Eydie--it's a perfect match!!!,
By Matthew G. Sherwin (last seen screaming at Amazon customer service) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Steve & Eydie Sing the Golden Hits (Audio CD)
Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme remain one of the greatest singing duos of the 20th century. This CD contains ten songs from their LP entitled Eydie Gorme and Steve Lawrence Sing the Golden Hits. Steve and Eydie complement each other beautifully regardless of whether or not they sing together simultaneously or if they take turns singing a duet. Their solo numbers astonish you with their terrific sensitivity as well. Their voices are vibrant, fresh and full of energy. This CD demonstrates their wonderful artistry.
The CD song stack starts off strong as Steve and Eydie belt out "I've Heard That Song Before." This ballad has incredible strength to complement its romantic quality; and the musical arrangement is beautiful. The lyrics highlight the beginning of a strong song stack, too. "I'll be With You In Apple Blossom Time" is another shimmering hit from a while back but Steve and Eydie sing it fresh here as if it were a brand new song. "Bei Mir Bist Du Schön" boasts another strong, upbeat melody with sublime lyrics. Other great songs on this CD include the beautiful "Marie" delivered by Steve with a big band arrangement; and Eydie bats out a particularly romantic rendition of "I Don't Want To Walk Without You." Steve gives "Green Eyes" the romantic treatment with a fantastic musical arrangement. Neither Steve nor Eydie ever sing a single superfluous note. Indeed, most if not all the musical arrangements boast the same strong big band/swing flavor. Don Costa arrangements will always stun you! The music highlights the same incredible sensitivity that Steve and Eydie display as they sing these awesome hits. The CD ends as Steve sings "I Hear A Rhapsody." This song hints at the impressive set of words and music Steve and Eydie give you as you listened to this impressive CD. The cover artwork is excellent, too. This CD is a blessing for Steve and Eydie fans and fans of classic pop vocals will love this CD. |
