This nine-member ensemble has selected fourteen wonderful songs for their debut CD (about half are accompanied) featuring arrangements from Joe Finetti,Phil Mattson, Michele Weir and Gene Puerling. The first track, 'The Flintstones Theme,' complete with Fred's 'Wilma' holler, wins over the listener immediately; 'Blackbird,' sung a cappella, is rendered as a sort of jazz hymn, fleshing out the progression with counterpoint and extending the phrases. 'Embraceable You' becomes three dimensional, it's so depthful. 'You Go To My Head' has become something of a signature tune for Beachfront: the richness and texture of the Singers Unlimited, without encumbering the essence of the song with unnecessary ornamentation. Terrific.
