Editorial Reviews

Priceless Jazz Collection is a compilation that intends to give neophytes an affordable introduction to Johnny Hartman's Impulse! recordings. Although purists and collectors will find this sampler incomplete and inconsequential, it nevertheless gives new listeners a good idea of Hartman's music during the '60s by featuring such fine cuts as "Lush Life," "These Foolish Things," "They Say It's Wonderful," "I Just Dropped By to Say Hello," and "In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning." ~ Leo Stanley, Rovi

If what you want to do is melt into delicious music...

Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2003

Johnny Hartman is the perfect choice - maybe the only voice that can produce the sensory vertigo I experienced the first time I heard him sing "You are too Beautiful..."
Then, when I read Billy Collins' poem likening Hartman's voice to the smoke of a forgotten cigarette curling up from an ashtray sitting atop a baby grand piano in the dark hours of early morning (I hope I'm not doing the poem a terrible disservice - I don't have the words - or should I say lyrics - memorized; only the feelings the poetry stirs in me!), I could have died and gone straight to heaven. (Maybe I did.)
Johnny Hartman's Everything, and Billy Collins' Poetry-and-Everything, are a perfect fit. Buy this CD and get your hands on a copy of the slender, perfect book, "The Art of Drowning," and see what I mean.
It is a shame that Johnny Hartman was never as widely recognized for his wonderfulness as he most certainly should have been. He was and is the best. It's not fair to music lovers everywhere that he is no longer around to perform. Moreover, it is terribly unfair to me that I wasn't around to meet Johnny Hartman, and that Billy Collins is not my next door neighbor. We could talk about jazz and poetry and I would buy my sugar from a little shop in town, one cup at a time. To replace the cup I had borrowed the day before...

Why isn't this guy more famous?

Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2000

I cannot believe I had never heard of this guy before a few months ago. I was stunned speechless the first time I heard his rendition of "They Say It's Wonderful," with John Coltrane. Everyone I've played this record for has the same reaction.
Having listened to him for a few months, I can tell that his voice works best with small bands. He didn't record many songs in front of big orchestras or lush, syrupy string sections. This is probably why he didn't achieve pop status and is identified more with purist jazz; it is also why his recordings sound more timeless. You do not have to be a jazz fan to love his album.
By all rights, Hartman should be as famous or more so than Tony Bennett, Johnny Mathis, Nat King Cole, and a dozen other "crooners" who, in my opinion, couldn't approach his incredible nuance and emotional power.

Pure Joy

Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2003

An extremely nice collection -- great selection of songs (including some of his collaborations with John Coltrane), well-programmed, and the sound quality is excellent. And if you don't know Johnny Hartman, you're in for a real treat. I don't usually do "buy this CD!" reviews, but really -- buy this CD! Hartman's voice is delicate, rich, smooth and sophisticated and the arrangements and playing are impeccable. One of my favorite jazz singers -- perhaps my favorite. After all, how many people could record a song made famous by Frank Sinatra ("Wee Small Hours") and improve on the original? And as another reviewer said, Hartman's lack of fame is an enduring mystery.

A Smooth One

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

I find this to smooth by half, verging on pop singing. There is none of the expressiveness found in god jazz vocals. Not even the presence of the Coltrane Quartet makes much of a difference.

Relaxing Jazz

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 18, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a wonderful record for relaxing while still maintaining the jazz feel. Totally different to Mark Murphy, Anita O'Day. Jackie Paris etc. Top class NY Musicians of the early 60's. Johnny Hartman interpreting superior material. I am disappointed that it took me 60 years to discover this! Recommended.
