Kay Thompson....What A Woman! Submitted on: 2009-10-02 |
|
| The Think Pink Kay Thompson Party is a must have for anyone who remotely herd of Kay, I had no idea she recorded so many songs and her night club show was phenomenal. Seeing Liza do a tribute to her at the Palace last year got my interest up but this set not only satisfies my interest, it went way beyond anything I knew abuot her. She was a gem we'll never see the likes of again. The Set is a must have, you really enjoy it! |

Great Performance! ... but quality issues ... Submitted on: 2009-10-02 |

| Like so many others I greeted the release of this delicious material by Kay Thompson with great pleasure. The set has a superb assortment of material by this seldom-heard artist. Sadly, I have been through two sets already in an effort to get one that played properly and have failed both times. Amazon is great about exchanges and refunds but I've given up -- to my dismay. Both times the discs have had visible flaws on them which translate to skips and repeats when played. There seems not to be much in quality control on this release and so I would just warn potential buyers to listen carefully after you receive it to be sure you get an acceptable copy. If you do get a good one, you'll have a real gem!!! |

Ok, FINALLY the LADY Submitted on: 2009-10-01 |

| gets the treatment on CD she HIGHLY deserves!!! Here is one mega-overdue CD that all the MGM musical lovers, Eloise lovers, and just plain-good music lovers have been waiting for. Not only she created what was the "MGM Sound" of the late 40's, in close-jazz harmony, but (sometimes accused of being over-produced) glorious arrangements of some of the best musicals of the studio of that era. Not one, not two, but we get three (count'em, THREE!!) wonderful CDs, starting with the most sort out Kay Thompson MGM album from the late 50's, which in used record stores would go for some astronomical price, but only if the store carried it. (I personally have never seen one in any used record store in 20 years.) Then if that was not enough, we go through rare radio transcriptions, CADENCE recording sessions, and, foremost, we get gems from the private collections of Mr. Feinstein, the one to go to if one is looking for rare sounds from the golden era. Wow. This set really is the collectors' dream come true. All the previous "unfortunate" releases of her recordings, which either suffers from lack of materials or extremely bad sound mastering, could not even begin to compare with this set. Beautifully bound, with great photo and liner notes, Sepia Records has done it again. Kudos to you. |

Boldly original -- buy this title and learn about the singular talent that was Kay Thompson Submitted on: 2009-09-21 |

Kay Thompson was truly a renaissance woman...she did it all. She was an author, a terrific singer, a great musician and composer, a great coach and vocal arranger and a wonderful talent and presence. She wrote the "Eloise" books and was friends with the whole world -- Lena Horne, Andy Williams and most importantly, Judy Garland. Kay, along with Roger Edens, helped bring Judy's talent to its apex and Liza Minnelli, who was Kay Thompson's god-daughter, once said that the best thing her mother ever gave her was Kay Thompson. Liza brilliantly revived Kay's arrangements and night club act last year at her Tony-winning turn, "Liza's at the Palace."
Listen to her work here. She sparkles and shines and you can see how she set the tone for modern performers right on down.
But for "Funny Face," she's almost forgotten as a film presence and what a shame she didn't make more films. She's the real deal...
