CD Reviews

Lee Wiley is a godess of jazz...
10/01/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Velvety, satiny, cool, vocals even in her last sessions this wonderful singer was still in her prime, she is the greatest singer that ever lived... Even Will friedwald author of jazz singing would agree with me, don't you think?"
Too little, too late

"I love Lee Wiley's singing. That said, of the many of her albums I have collected, this is the one most of us, except the obsessive fans, should pass on.



The reason is not her singing, though it is the voice of experience over physiology that all top singers display, no, it is the inane announcements sprinkled throughout the CD, and especially it is the mediocre technical quality of the Boston Storyland rehersal cuts.



If the producers of this recording had done their duty, which is to protect listeners from the defects listed above, it might have been worth owning.



Save your money and splurge on all her other CD's which are marvelous. She was a genuine American singing talent. Torch singer, jazz singer, blues singer extraordinaire."

"I'm a lee Wiley fan and am trying to find out more about her - I'd like to know about the 20 year "hiatus" and how she seemed to just be a totally sincere and lady-like person. I was pleasantly surprised to find such items as her (rare) records on CDs and particularly happy to find that I could afford several by searching onto the "used" offerings. The so-called "nearly new" or "used, like new" CDs were in perfect condition, wrapped and sealed and not a sign of use. I am not impressed with so many of the current day singers - - especially after listening to the "great ones" who tried over and over to get it right and all without artificial enhancements and electronic "assists". They are the TRUE "artists" and we should appreciate them more. Copy the CDs so that if you have a car you can listen to them and if more than one car, make a few copies. What talent, how rare and also how sincere in their offerings!! Dr. Gordon R.Derman (gordonderman@comcast.net)"
