Title: Michael and Maynard, do it again!
Product review: This one grew on me. I liked it a lot, even on first hearing, and I'm not especially a fan of Feinstein's. Why did I buy it? The promise of a Big Band and the Maynard Ferguson name. Ferguson's two albums, sadly currently not available on CD, with Chris Connor are all time favorites. Some of the songs, and all the arrangements, grabbed me here right off, some songs seemed like filler next to some of the standards. Little by little, it insinuated itself into the everyday, and it's now never out of reach. It's pretty hard to single out a track when it's all this good: the smooth and easy "Girl Talk," the super "One Day at a Time," a killer "The One I Love Belongs to Somebody Else," and, best of all, a new one on me, "You Can't Lose Em All." Feinstein's delivery of the line "Who knows maybe, this could be your loving baby" alone is worth the price of admission to one helluva CD.
