Steve LAWRENCE & Eydie GORMEWe Got Us / Eydie & Steve Sing The Golden Hits
Steve & Eydie were singing Gershwin, Porter, and
Tin Pan Alley in the 1950's while the rest of the world was listening to artists
like Elvis, Johnny Ray. Steve & Eydie were keeping the popular American
songbook alive along with Tony Bennett, Keely Smith, Carmen McRae and a few
others. Though they were not as jazz orientated as others, on these two sets
(originally issued on DOT LPs) they are at their best. They swing through
standards and lesser known gems. Gorme sounds a little Sarah Vaughan / Keely
Smith influenced, And Lawrence is as smooth sounding as ever. Recommended
highly, especially to those who might think Steve & Eydie are not capable of
singing jazz, here's proof that they are !!!!
