Henry Mancini's daughter takes a daring debut step as a vocalist right into her father's shadow. On an album covering her father's songs, she makes her mark with a sweet, smooth voice and a nice sense of phrasing. Her gamble pays off with lushly orchestrated versions of "Two for the Road," "Moon River," "Moment to Moment," and others. ~ Tim Sheridan

Monica Mancini album
 $7.95 
Vocalist Monica Mancini follows up her chart-topping self-titled debut with an outstanding collection of 12 songs written by one of America's greatest songwriters, Johnny Mercer. The Dreams of Johnny Mercer features the stunning vocalist performing seven songs with previously unpublished lyrics written by Mercer with great new music by Barry Manilow. Great American Songbook standards like an Italian version of "It Had Better Be Tonight," one of many Mercer and Henry Mancini collaborations, and the guest appearance of Alvin Chea, the bass singer of Take 6, on an excellent a cappella arrangement of "Ac-cent-tchu-ate the Positive" adds to the beauty of this insightful and intimate collection of songs. The lush orchestral arrangements by Patrick Williams, Randy Waldman, and David Torres on "Just Remember," "At Last," and "Love Is Where You Find It" unfold to provide a layer of musical precision that expand the lovely, warm, and supple vocals of Mancini. Her voice is irresistible and her mastery of these melodies ...
| | Ted Brown Free Spirit CD (1989)
Monica Mancini CD music
$14.55
A veteran tenor saxophonist who gained early recognition for his work with the Lennie Tristano school, Ted Brown has remained fairly obscure despite his consistent creativity. This superior trio set with the great bebop pianist Hod O'Brien and bassist Jacques Schols, features Brown at the top of his form. Other than his own "Smog Eyes" and the lesser-known "Trane's Slo Blues," all of the tunes are familiar bebop standards, but Brown, O'Brien, and Schols uplift and infuse them ...
| | Monica Mancini Cinema Paradiso CD (2002)
Monica Mancini music CDs
$6.89 
Monica Mancini has been careful in her recording projects to reflect her heritage and promote it without exploiting it. Her first album, Monica Mancini, was, naturally enough, a collection of songs written by her father, Henry Mancini. Her second, The Dreams of Johnny Mercer, was a tribute to one of her father's main collaborators. Cinema Paradiso features songs by many different songwriters, but its source is the kind of movie theme music in which her father worked successfully for his entire career. Mancini deliberately mixes things up in her choices of material, going back in time as far as the late '30s for "Over the Rainbow" and as far forward as "Senza Fine" from Ghost Ship, a film that opened 11 days before her album was released. And she mixes well-known songs like "Alfie" and "The Shadow of Your Smile" with worthy but lesser-known efforts such as Burton Lane and Alan Jay Lerner's "Too Late Now" from Royal Wedding and her father's "Soldier in the Rain" from the movie of the same name with lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman. She has also considered the arrangements carefully, using eight different arrangers to create settings for ...
| | Cheryl Bentyne Talk Of The Town CD (2003)
Monica Mancini songs
$11.99 
Cheryl Bentyne is justly celebrated for her work as the soprano voice in Manhattan Transfer, but her work outside of that ensemble is just as impressive, if sometimes less flashy. This solo album, in fact, is notable for its lack of pyrotechnical wizardry, and is all the stronger for it. Focusing almost exclusively on standards, Talk of the Town finds Bentyne singing with an almost Ella Fitzgerald-like transparency, imposing little of her own ego on the material and avoiding heavy-handed interpretation. This is not to say that she sings without personality or style -- simply that she sings ...

After a decade of platinum success, Motley Crue parted ways with vocalist Vince Neil. In 1994, the band released its self-titled album to an industry that had seen much change since 1989's DR. FEELGOOD. With Nine Inch Nails atop the charts, the John Corabi-led Crue went for a darker sound. Although the record surprised longtime fans upon release, hindsight has proved that the album rocks as convincingly as any Crue effort.
"Power to the Music" and "Hooligans Holiday" are grunge-metal tracks with a radio friendly vibe. "Misunderstood" is a powerful track about people whose lives have passed them by. The hippyish "Loveshine" takes a cue from Led Zeppelin's prime years. "Hammered" ferociously drives its anti-drug message home thanks to the skin bashing of Tommy Lee. "Babykills," a rare bonus track, includes studio banter from the band. "Livin' in the Know," one of two unreleased tracks, tells of bassist Nicki Sixx's disgust with the band's lawyers. MOTLEY CRUE continues to gain admiration among Crueheads as the years go by. Though it's a departure from the band's classic ...
