Customer Reviews:

is a classic in male vocal jazz.......2006-06-15

I truly agree with the reviewers on the merits of the album. Kevin's voice and the instrumentations of the songs makes this a rare collectors item.. "I apologize" is a version I like better that Billie's Eckestine, and he is the Man.

As a travelling salesman on the road here in Venezuela, I had the occasion to play this cds while giving the lift to rural people in the lonely roads, they were all curious as to who sings so well.. so it has the transcendental touch

As Good As It Gets.......2003-11-12

Kevin Mahogany's "My Romance" album is a delight and a wonder. Not only does he take some classic torch songs ("I Apologize" and the title song among others), but he treats us to some wonderful songs that are rarely found even in the complete discographies of Sinatra, Bennett, Torme, etc. For example, he takes the song "How Did She Look?" and spins it into one of the most incredible gut-wrenchers, a song to rival Joe Williams version of "Here's That Rainy Day." One of my students brought me the CD and I could not stop playing it for three hours. I am awed by this talent. Cabaret singing has gone out of style, with the exception of Bobby Short and a few others. Too quiet, is my guess. And that is a real loss. Because I can remember when Chicago clubs did nothing but this kind of music: London House; Mister Kelly's; Blue Note; Black Orchid; and so forth. Now it is all amplifiers and deafening sound. What a loss! But what a joy to find Kevin Mahogany. May he have a long and storied career.

WoW!.......2000-02-22

Kevin Mahogany's voice is sooooo smoooth that I have trouble concentrating on other things when MY ROMANCE is on the CD player. The guy is the ultimate New York crooner. I picture myself sitting at a quiet booth at the Carlysle or the Algonquin curled up with a VSOP cognac and my honey, spellbound by Kevin's magic. It's awesome!

Something Very Special.......2000-02-09

Kevin Mahogany is a brand new find for me. Saw him on Public TV at the Newport Jazz Festival and decided to pick up My Romance. Mahogany is super smooth on this one. Performs numbers made famous by others and tops them - adds a couple I've never heard before but now love. This guy has got it all, superb vocal quality, a romantic smoothness that makes a girl's knees grow weak and that unique very, very special quality that makes someone a star. I prefer Mahogany even to the great Joe Williams. Once you have My Romance you will definitely want to have others.

Good!.......2000-01-25

Kevin Mahagony is a rare bird. A deep, great voice that knows to sing. This album is fine, with great interpetations of teach me tonight, everything is yours, can i come in and even the overdone (though really great) lush life. The sound of the album is sparse, very "cool", exactly right for a late night listening. I admire Kevin's changing from CD to CD, broadening his repetoire. Let him keep them coming!
