Customer Reviews:

Not Brownie's best ballad work.......2001-08-04

Clifford Brown was one of the great ballad masters on his instrument. There is ample evidence of this across his recorded work. This collection is not a good sampling of it. Of the 14 tracks, five are from the "Clifford Brown With Strings" session that was marred with Neal Hefti's schmaltzy, dated arrangements and not much improvisation by Brownie. Another six are showcases for singers Helen Merrill, Sarah Vaughan and Dinah Washington. One, the wonderful minor blues "Lands End" is not a ballad. That leaves just two, "Ghost of a Chance" (nice) and "Time" (questionable). Unless you want the female vocals and Neal Hefti, this set is not for you.

Decent collection of ballads.......2001-08-01

Those wishing for a quick sampler of Brownie's ballad play from across his career will enjoy this collection. Although it is by no means complete, and some of Brown's great performances are missing (for instance, "Delilah" would have fit here even better than "Land's End"), this CD is nice.

Great Music.......2000-05-23

Clifford Brown Has a Rich Quality Tone all the way through on this Very Essential Set.Very Relaxing Music&Great Arrangements.

Just as the title suggests..........1999-10-14

...this CD is the perfect collection of Clifford Brown pieces to settle you into evening. Both relaxing and romantic, sultry vocals and muted horns combined make this PERFECT mood music!!!
