Title: Good Idea- bad execution
Review: I had been wanting this collection for quite awhile, thought a strings backing would be interesting, a nice juxtaposition...This recording is barely listenable...the string arrangements are pretentious, overwrought, and what one would imagine hearing in a 1940's/50's hollywood melodrama fraught with a bad script and acting.....It coulda worked if the string arrangements had been subtle, straight background for some decent pop tunes...this is really bad. Because Bird's playing is great, someone ought to rerecord the background...
Is the review positive or negative?
