Customer reviews of Sentimental Journey

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Nostalgia
Comment: As a singer, I'm always looking for new (or old) material and in this wonderful CD, Sentimental Journey, by the incomparable Miss Beegie Adair, I've found fabulous new presentations of matchless WW2 songs. There are 12 songs on this CD and I've taken 6 of them for my own interpretation. These are the nostalgic songs that our parents danced and romanced to in the 40's and they're just as beautiful today. Beegie brings them to life again, not that they ever went away, but to listen to her brilliant playing of I'm Getting Sentimental Over You; Sentimental Journey; It's been a Long,Long Time; You'll Never know and I'll Be Seeing You is a very moving experience. Long live Brilliant Beegie !!

Customer Rating:
Summary: Wonderful!
Comment: This is the best. It's so pleasing to listen to. I had heard it twice before I purchased it and remember thinking what cheerful, uplifting music it is. It lifts my mood each time I play it. Someone mentioned that it was good dinner music, I would whole heartedly agree. In fact, I am online now to buy one for my sister for her birthday. She is an artist, she wants to have this on while she works.

This album plays like fine wine and flows very easily on the ears ... once again Jack Jezzro (producer) and Greg Howard (execuive producer) comes through with a must have for all music lovers and fans of Beegie --- Arrangements take on many moods with the same sensitivity and tender loving care as her previous albums --- This is why I'm once again giving Beegie Adair another five [5] star review --- she's a precious commodity that gives many collectors joy in the world of music --- Classic Standards, keeps you coming back for more in the style of Beegie Adair.

Summary: Best-ever "cocktail piano"
Comment: For those who don't know her, Beegie Adair has made the best albums ever created, in a class of music that used to be called "cocktail piano". Unlike the great jazz pianists that require close attention while listening (Oscar Peterson, Art Tatum, Hampton Hawes, etc), she makes music that's quiet and relaxing, but with much more class and intelligence than Muzak, elevator music, or schlocky pop-cover instrumentals. It's the perfect background music for working at a computer, making or having drinks or dinner, or talking with friends. If you'd like some of that in your collection, she's as good as you'll ever find. "I'll Take Romance" is the album I would recommend most highly; this would be a good second, if you try that and want more.
