You Should Sleep in the Arms of Love
Julie Schroeder | New York, NY USA | 10/13/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Jonathan Frank's CD "Sleeping in the Arms of Love" is a beautifully sung and arranged work of art. Each song is delivered with a masters touch. Jonathan's voice is like the lovers arms you want to be sleeping in, warm and strong yet gentle enough to caress your soul."

"What a delightful surprise it was discovering Jonathon Frank!Such magnificent songs sung with a deep appreciation for perfect phrasing,the music itself, and for the meaning hidden within the simplest lyrics.He is, and will continue to be a personal favorite. Let's just hope that Jonathon Frank continues to record."
Sleepless Over Sleeping In The Arms of Love
Julie Schroeder | 01/03/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"After witnessing this impressive young performer in both Seattle and Manhattan,I was happy to hear this debut CD, and it was not a let-down. In person,Frank impresses as much with his flip & sarcastic side as with his romantic one, but this recital is all about romance, longing and bitersweet goodbyes, in its mix of cabaret gems,obscure Broadway and nostalgia items, and finds the singer in good voice,backed up by fine musicians and solid arrangements.Standout tracks include, appropriately for a Seattle based singer, "Cappucino", a warm classic forties-style turn on "Sentimental Interlude",the tender "Baby Mine" (from Disney's DUMBO) and a heart-felt "Mama, A Rainbow from the Broadway's MINNIE'S BOYS (Minnie was the Marx Bros. Mama).Most impressive, in both Frank's delivery and melding of two complimentary tunes, "No Moon"(from the underrated TITANIC stage musical)and "Sailing On" by Alan Menken & Dean Pitchford.Though one would hope to see some of Frank's sardonic and wicked humor on a future CD, this one is great for those sleepless lovers in Seattle, San Francisco or even Shanghai."
