5.0 out of 5 stars Beegie has my vote!, October 17, 2000

By	Diana J. Nuehring (Nashville, TN USA) - See all my reviews

I've been listening to Beegie for over 30 years since she played for the WSM TV noon show back in the 60's. She accompanied my father, Bob Johnstone, on that show. He sang with Paul Whiteman and Shep Fields back in the 40's, Owen Bradley's dance band in Nashville and many more and he thought Beegie was one of the best pianists with whom he'd ever had the pleasure to work. He loved her style, her charm and her sincerity in her music. Her talents shine in this album. She has the smooth, easy sound that I could listen to for hours. You can't go wrong with any of her albums, but this one, along with her Nat King Cole cd are splendid additions to any jazz fan's collection!

5.0 out of 5 stars great, August 30, 2001

By A Customer

This is one of my favorite CDs in the whole world. I've played it a lot (in my car, in the waiting room at work, in the slot in the computer while I'm doing the billing, in the bedroom to wake up to) (and stuff). I just never get tired of it. All the classic Sinatra tunes, great insrumental presentation.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is a cd that most jazz fans will want to own., April 12, 2000

By	Philip Scott (U.S.A.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I stumbled on to Beegie by accident, but it has been a great discovery. This cd shows her great interpolation of the music she plays. She has a real presence for her songs. The only regret i have is that there is not more of her cds available. The only reason for not giving her a higher rating on this cd is because, like so many jazz musicians they apear to wonder away from the melody while improvising. In Beegies' case on several of her play downs she does her wondering. Out of the 12 tracks listed I only liked 9.

Recommendation: I would like to recommend this cd.
