Title: mel tormé at his best
Review: When people talk about the great Mel Torme albums of the '50s and '60s, this title is never mentioned. All I can say is--it should be! While titles like "Lulu's Back in Town," "Mel Torme Sings Fred Astaire," and "Mel Torme Swings Schubert Alley" are certainly deserving of praise, it's amazing that a GREAT record like "Torme" has been out of print for so long.The songs are fantastic, especially the ballads (if not a little obscure at times), and Torme's voice never sounded better.Now, I only wish Verve would hurry up and re-issue Torme's other out-of-print masterpiece from the same era--"I Dig the Duke, I Dig the Count."
