CD Reviews

Put on a happy face
Bruce London | 04/29/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Grey skys are gonna clear up, put on a happy face. Put on your smile and cheer up, just put on a happy face. Spread sunshine all over the place just put on a happy face. That's what Tony Bennett sings on one of his albums, a song by Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh I believe. Here, for once, is no Piafian ennui, no angst. Uptempo, brilliantly recorded upbeat songs. Showing that "Little Pepper" Elis Regina had an indescribable sure way with jazz licks as though she had understudied Carmen McRae, Peggy Lee, and Ella Fitzgerald. Maybe she did! Brasil always loved cool jazz and Sinatra, Chet Baker, Gerry Mulligan. Here the favor is returned so happily."
