On 'Falling Together' the four men and four women of jazz octet Pieces of 8 have picked some of our favorite music, turned arranger Charles Mead loose on it, and come up with a very special CD. It's all great stuff: 'Bye Bye Blackbird,' Lennon & McCartney's 'Blackbird' and 'When I'm 64,' Rodgers & Hart's 'You Took Advantage of Me,' 'You Don't Know What Love Is,' Leonard Cohen's 'Bird on a Wire,' Cole Porter's 'I Concentrate on You,' 'Kansas City/Route 66,' Andrew Lloyd Webber's 'I Don't Know How To Love Him,' 'The Price of Wisdom' and Leonard Bernstein's 'Somewhere.' Mead's unconventional arrangements require singers with incredible range and versatility, and Pieces of 8 handles them with ease. There's not a weak track on the CD--'Falling Together' is a saucy, jazzy, gem! Listen to When I'm 64 in RealAudio. |
