For anyone familiar with the work of pianist/vocalist Feinstein, this album would be the very definition of the term "no-brainer." Feinstein has made a career out of championing the Gershwin/Berlin-era popular song in an age when loud guitars had replaced lush, melodic songwriting in the public favor. Having spent his entire professional life studying and interpreting the work of Gershwin and his contemporaries, Feinstein is eminently qualified to tackle an entire album of the legendary composer's work (more so than some who've done so in the past). The orchestrations are subtle and effective, as are Feinstein's voice and piano. While well-known tunes like "Embraceable You" and "Swanee" are here, the balance of the album is filled with lesser-known gems that will delight any Gershwin fan.
Includes liner notes by Michael Feinstein.
Recorded at Mad Hatter Studios and Bomec Studios, Los Angeles, California.

Michael & George: Feinstein Sings Gershwin album
 $38.09   
DREAMS is a 4-CD box set compiling in chronological order tracks by the Allman Brothers Band, as well as tracks by bands featuring one or more member of the Allman Brothers Band and solo performances by Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts.
Recorded between 1966 & 1988. Includes a 32-page illustrated booklet and liner notes by John Swenson.
Like nearly all box sets, DREAMS has plenty to recommend it-and a few nagging drawbacks. The set's chief shortcoming is its two conflicting goals: providing an overview of the Allmans' history, thus attracting buyers seeking the ultimate hits package, and including enough unreleased tracks and rarities to appeal to the band's most devoted fans. As a result, DREAMS is neither the definitive Allman Brothers collection ...
| | Poco Forgotten Trail (1969-74) CDs (1990)
Michael & George: Feinstein Sings Gershwin CD music
$15.95
This compilation contains 38 songs, including many new remixes from original master tapes, 6 previously unreleased songs, alternate versions of 3 others, and a comprehensive 36 page booklet, with historic liner notes and photos.
This excellent two-disc collection captures Poco's finest moments from the days when they were laying down the template for all the country-rock music that was to follow. It's hard to remember, but when the Eagles first hit the scene, they were thought by many to be a Poco-wannabe band. Listen to this set and you'll hear why. The Forgotten Trail (1969-1974) culls tracks from Poco's first eight albums, as well as unreleased cuts and singles. From the classic anthem "Pickin' Up the Pieces," which kicks things off, through "You Better Think Twice," "C'mon," "Kind Woman," "From the Inside," "A Good Feelin' to Know," "Crazy Eyes," and on and on, this is wonderful music, ahead of its time in many ways. If Poco had ...

Engineers include: Leslie Ann Jones, Hank Cicalo, Al Schmitt.
Nice Work If You Can Get It: Songs by the Gershwins is Michael Feinstein's second all-Gershwin album. His first, Pure Gershwin, was his best record, probably because, as a former secretary to Ira Gershwin, he knew his way around the material. This time, Feinstein ...

Michael & George: Feinstein Sings Gershwin music CDs
$12.89
Vibraphonist Wagnon has heard the fusion music of the '70s, and it has stuck with him. He's also quite cognizant of post-bop jazz horns, James Brown, and siren songs as evoked during much of this effort by Sarah Pillow. Trumpeters Dave Douglas and, especially, Tim Ouimette, trombonists Phil Arnold for the bulk and Ray Anderson for two solos, guitarist Van Manakas, bassist Greg Jones, and drummer Frank Katz round out this well-rounded, thoroughly contemporary, daring, and modern music ensemble. Pillow, as vocalist and lyricist, takes the lioness share of these "tunes." Her instrument is impressive, as flexible, scattable, dour and deep, or joyous and bold as anyone might need. A pained woman's anthem "Venus Incognito" goes from funk bridge to ...
