CD Reviews

I was a JERK to only give this 4 stars...

(5 out of 5 stars)

"It's funny how time affects one's opinion. In the case of this cd, it has really done a good job of convincing me that it's a truely good cd. In my last review I made some stupid remarks, I really stuck my foot in my BIG mouth, i do that a lot.I mentioned in my last review of this cd, that I thought she improvised too much, what a stupid fool I was. I wrote that before I truly understood what jazz was, and thanks to Beegie, I now finally GET IT. Now the main reason I listen to this is for the improviastions and the exciting strays away from the melody. I now understand any BOZO easy listening pianist can play songs staright, but what makes Beegie so special is her swinging improvisations. The most exciting parts of this cd are when Beegie improvises and strays from the melody! I wish I could erase my last review, I could hit myself over the head for that. I also remarked that she didn't know the proper time to improvise, I knew NOTHING of jazz back then, Beegie's timing is perfect, and she knows EXACTLY when to improvise, I wouldn't change a not on this cd. But who really cares about my dumb opinions anyway right? Well i love thsi cd anyway, it's a jazz classic, and truly a tribute to the King, Nat that is!Can I recomend this cd?
Yes, as a matter a fact I can."

"Absolutely LOVE this cd, but I wish she had a cd with Christmas songs! Does anybody know of one? I hope someone will convince her to produce a Holiday album!"

Definitely the essence of fine piano music...with style!

"It will hook you like a chocolate bar and become that which you crave....We can't think of a more satisfying recording for placing us in the piano bar at Boscobel Beach , Jamaica than this. Beegie Adair treats the songs as if she composed them and her interpretation is smooth and powerful."
