Description
Though it's sometimes relegated to second or third place among Mel Tormé's best albums of the '50s (behind “Mel Tormé and the Marty Paich Dek-Tette” and “It's a Blue World”), it's difficult to hear how “Mel Tormé Sings Fred Astaire” can't be the best album of his entire career. There's a mix of enthusiasm and sophisticated ease here that makes this one of Torme's finest recordings. He's aided by Marty Paich's lively, brassy arrangements and an excellent studio band with trumpeter Pete Condoli and saxophonists Herb Geller and Jack Montrose. A collection of perfect hard-swinging pop with a few ballads thrown in for good measure makes "Mel Tormé Sings Fred Astaire" a masterpiece, one of the best up-tempo vocal albums ever recorded.
