Barry Manilow (2 Christmas Albums)

Posted in Barry Manilow, christmas on December 10, 2007 by bocahklene

Ho.. Ho.. Ho.. these are my all time fav Christmas albums! I’m saving it until now, when it’s really close to christmas, and this album would be so perfect to listen right now. ;)

The first album, Because It’s Christmas, was from 1990. This one is the softer side of Christmas, perhaps one of the most peaceful one ever. Barry’s voice captured all the magic of Christmas, and will pour it into our home, anytime you listen to it. Try to close your eyes, and listen to this, you’ll feel peaceful and joyful at the same time. This one is a classic. My favorite pick is The Bells Of Christmas, for its sweet, romantic and smooth style.. such an everlasting song.

The second one, is a fully orchestrated christmas, swingy in the tradition of Bing Crosby’s or Sinatra’s. This album will bring you right away to a Broadway-ish Christmas, and yes, it’s glorious. Great renditions, so refreshing, shiny and bright.

So.. both are FULLY RECOMMENDED. May you have the most wonderful christmas ever with these classics. ;)

Barry Manilow – 2:00 AM Paradise Cafe (1984)

Posted in Barry Manilow on November 23, 2007 by bocahklene

No album can be more mellow than this. Gw gambarin gini deh isi album ini.. imagine someone sad and alone, sitting alone in the closed cafe after midnight, pouring everything he felt inside. Yep, itu cukup buat ngegambarin. It’s dark, moody n mellow… but still, it’s beautiful, sweet and touching at the same time. Album ini direkam live recording tanpa suara2 tepuk tangan atau ocehan2 penonton. Gw rekomen banget album ini buat siapa aja, bahkan buat yg ga suka ama Barry Manilow. Ini album yang beda, bukan spt tipikal lagu2nya Barry Manilow biasa. a simply and truly classic, ga akan pernah ketinggalan jaman. When October Goes, Say No More dan Paradise Cafe adalah lagu2 yg gw jagoin dari sini. All time fav gw tiga2nya. So when you’re feeling blue, when you need mellow tunes to set the night off, even when you just need a recording that can make you relax and melt down under your blanket, this one will always be right on the spot. So let’s go mellow with Barry at the Paradise Cafe.

ps: yes, this is rare album.

1. Paradise Cafe
2. Where Have You Gone
3. Say No More
4. Blue
5. When October Goes
6. What Am I Doin’ Here
7. Good Bye My Love
8. Big City Blues
9. When Love Is Gone
10. I’ve Never Been So Low On Love
11. Night Song

Here’s the offer.. this is the very first album of Barry Manilow, the man that has the career span over 30 years, has been entertaining with his sweet melodious and romantic songs through decades, not that easy to find these days, and this one simply a classic. The first track, Sing It, is a voice recording of Barry’s grandpa trying to make him sing on the 25 cent recording machine in New York back when he was still the little Barry. Nice memorabilia, nice album, especially for you who love his dedication all these years. Note, Could It Be Magic, one of his classic was from this very first album. Enjoy smile.gif

It’s time to swing! ini album langka yang udah susah banget didapat. Barry Manilow yang dikenal dengan lagu2 hitsnya spt Mandy, If I Should Love Again, Can’t Smile Without You , Copacabana dll, dalam rentang karirnya , terutama di tahun 80an sempat ngeluarin bbrp album jazz. (gw akan post satu2 disini.. termasuk album Christmas nya ntar) Ini albumnya Barry yang full swing. This album is purely timeless and classic, catching all the beauty and glory of Big Band era. Masterpiece re-arrangement,wonderful vocal of Barry and big names/classic songs in Big Band era joined together to make this one a classic. Ada lagunya Jimmy Dorsey, Glenn Miller, Rosemary Clooney, Duke Ellington yang udah ga asing lagi. Selain itu ada juga lagu orisinil Barry disini yang kalau aja dibawain di era big band tahun 20-40 an, gw jamin bakal ngehits.

Guys, ini salah satu all time classic gw dari sub genre Swing. If you are into big band, suka Barry Manilow, seneng dengar ballroom music, this one is absolutely a must.

1. Singin’ With The Big Bands
2. Sentimental Journey – Les Brown & His Band Of Renown
3. And The Angels Sing
4. Green Eyes – Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra/Rosemary Clooney
5. I Should Care
6. Don’t Get Around Much Anymore – Duke Ellington Orchestra
7. I Can’t Get Started
8. Chattanooga Choo Choo – Glenn Miller Orchestra
9. Moonlight Serenade – Glenn Miller Orchestra
10. On The Sunny Side Of The Street – Tommy Dorsey Orchestra
11. All Or Nothing At All – Harry James Orchestra
12. I’ll Never Smile Again – Tommy Dorsey Orchestra
13. I’m Gettin’ Sentimental Over You

Barry Manilow – Manilow Sings Sinatra

Blackmamba says:
Tahun 1998, Frank Sinatra, sang legenda yang telah menghabiskan hampir seluruh hidupnya di dunia jazz (sejak awal 30 an Sinatra udah mulai tampil di depan publik), meninggal dunia akibat serangan jantung. Ada ratusan hitsnya Sinatra dan sebagian besar jadi lagu2 klasik yang terus menerus dinyanyiin ulang oleh begitu banyak artis. Kali ini giliran Barry Manilow, sebagai penghormatan terakhir pada sang legenda, yang dirilis hanya bbrp bulan setelah berita duka kepergian Sinatra. Nice introduction as the opening, One Man In A Spotlight, sbg respek Barry pada Sinatra, dilanjutkan lagu2 klasik swing yang nostalgik dan megah. Suara Barry yang empuk terasa asik banget ngebawain lagu2 swingnya Sinatra. This album paid a great tribute to Sinatra, yes, but it’s also so sweet n nice to listen to, despite if this is a tribute lane or not. Album yang memabukkan, manis, romantis n timeless. Try it, you’ll enjoy this album instantly. O ya, album ini jg udah susah didapat sekarang loh.. If you’re Sinatra or Barry Manilow fans, if you like glorious swing tunes in big band era, if you like ballroom dancing, this one is absolutely a must! smile.gif
