Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: nancy lamott Comment: the album is excellent.It is a compendium of her work from various sources at various times from1988-1994 and is an excellent album.Highly recommended, especially for her fans. Music is heavily oriented toward jazz, cabaret, pop and broadway tunes. Customer Rating: Summary: A Great CD Comment: I was afraid that a CD that came out so many years after her death, would sound like left-over cuts that weren't good enough to be included in one of her albums. Not the case here! These are all terrific singles and they all sound like top-notch recordings. I remember hearing her sing most of them on Jonathan Schwartz's radio show. I was amazed at the time and I am still amazed by the beauty and honesty of her voice. A real find for her fans. MW Customer Rating: Summary: Priceless Gems Comment: This CD set is filled with unique tracks by a fine artist who left us too soon. Many of these songs were never recorded by Nancy and every track is a gem including the duet with Michael Feinstein. And with two CD's in the package this is a priceless bargain. I hope there are more like this somewhere that will eventually surface. Since most of these were from Live Performances on Jonathan Schwartz Radio Shows perhaps he has some others which we would love to hear. Customer Rating: Summary: Thank you, Midder Music! Comment: We've all been waiting so very long for more of Nancy's unreleased music. This 2-CD set is a grand compilation of this wonderful voice. I've been singing "Moondance" all day, with Nancy's expressive sound in my head. Customer Rating: Summary: Amazing voice, amazing discovery Comment: If you've ever had the privilege of hearing Judy or Liza or Streisand in person or hearing them on an LP or CD for the first time, then you'll know what a thrill's in store for you when you hear Nancy LaMott for the first time. I was introduced to her a few years back by a friend and I couldn't wait to hear more of this fascinating voice. "Ask Me Again" is a truly wonderful discovery that you will treasure. Enough said. Get your copy now and sit back and enjoy. You won't be sorry. More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: "After Nancy's death in 1995, many radio DJ's across the country kept her music alive by playing cuts from her CD's. But one DJ, Jonathan Schwartz, had access to a special private collection of unreleased recordings that Nancy had given him copies as gifts. Over the years, Jonathan would regularly play these recordings, and every time he did, we would get calls asking; 'Which CD is that on? How do I get a copy of the that song?'. Of course, there weren't on any CD, so we had a lot of frustrated fans on our hands. Several years ago, we set out to rectify that problem by putting together this compilation. Because these songs were recorded in many disparate venues, most with just a live piano, on all different kinds of equipment of varying quality, live in concert, live on the radio, and in small studios in Atlantic City and New York, the challenge was to get them to play evenly so they could be listened to on one CD without losing the dynamic range that was the trademark of Nancy's live performances. We have tried, in every case, to leave the songs as they were originally sung, so with the exception of raising and lowering volumes and a few small nips and tucks, all these performances are untouched. The result is intimate, natural look at these songs just as Nancy sang them. No frills, no tricks, just Nancy." - David Friedman
