5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Mainstream Jazz.......2005-08-14

I think this is the best of the 'Dream Band' recordings-- & the others are very nice too. The fabulous Rebecca Kilgore sings on 8 tracks, and brilliantly too I think. In
fact some of her best very recent vocals. Sheridan himself does a fun vocal on old Bing Crosby rarity, "You Lucky People You." And the instrumentals are great--
allowing a lot of room for each of the excellent players (true on the vocal ones too). Of Becky's vocal, my faves are maybe ballad "When We're Alone (Penthouse Serenade)" which does evoke a vision of an idealized Manhattan (& youngish love), and a lovely poignant but still kinda upbeat one of Alec Wilder's "It's So Peaceful in the Country." Others fine too. A nice mix of not that well-known 'standards' & great arrangements that honor the jazz/classical pop tradition with some contemporary echoes in some of the harmonies & arrangements, without losing sight of the melodies or original intention. I guess you could say 'it sounds like something from the '40's with better sound.' But that's the point IMO. Great album-- & pick up Kilgore's other great albums this year too, "Music of Jimmy Van Heusen" w. pianist Keith Ingram's ensemble, and part 2 of her Maxine Sullivan tribute, "Make Someone Happy" w. clarinetist Bobby Gordon's Trio.
