Album Description
The acclaimed multi-instrumentalist and co-founder of Jellyfish, Moog Cookbook, and Imperial Drag wrote every song, played every instrument, and sang every note on this debut, an album that blends colorful melodies with rich harmonies and creative arrangements into pure pop perfection. "The disc is packed with breezy sonic confections that brazenly exhibit their creator's fondness for Paul McCartney, XTC, Queen, Brian Wilson, Burt Bacharach, and others in the pop pantheon" - Future Music Magazine.

A master of American popular song, Michael Feinstein turns to children's music for Pure Imagination and the result should please children and adults alike. The album includes story songs ("Ferdinand the Bull") and "message" songs ("Aren't You Glad You're You"), as well as favorites from films, such as the title track (from Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory) and a medley from Disney's Alice in Wonderland. This album is about what you'd expect from Feinstein, including irrepressible cheer, pleasant singing (if a little strained toward the top of his range), a guest appearance from Rosemary Clooney, and impeccable song selection. --David Horiuchi

Opening with a gorgeous rendition of Willy Wonka's "Pure Imagination," Boston-based a cappella jazz quintet Vox One returns from hiatus with its fifth album. The personnel (they met, and many work, at Berklee College of Music) is intact from its 1993 self-titled debut: Jodi Jenkins-Ainsworth (soprano), Yumiko Matsuoka (alto), Paul Stiller (tenor/vocal drums), Paul Pampinella (baritone), and Tom Baskett (bass). Matsuoka is the chief arranger, while Stiller produces, arranges, and contributes the original "You Know" with other originals by Matsuoka ("Leave It to Me (Or Leave Me Alone)" and Pampinella ("Try"). Also interspersed are songs by Joni Mitchell and Stevie Wonder, traditional songs such as "Simple Gifts" and "Take Me Out to the Ball Game," and some beautiful improvisations. Pure Imagination is a welcome return of one of the most well-regarded groups in vocal jazz. --David Horiuchi
