Tracks list

The title of this 1960 album says it all: The Velvet Fog sings jazz
interpretations of songs from the heart of Manhattan’s theatrical
district. Tormés instantly recognizable voice is at ease with these Broadway
tunes written between 1943 and 1959. Interacting with the agile and responsive
Marty Paich Orchestra, he offers a smooth take on “A Sleepin’
Bee” and a suave interpretation of “Just in Time.” With his
gravitas, Oklahomas “Surrey with the Fringe on Top” sounds
surprisingly sophisticated, while his refined instrument resembles a wailing
alto saxophone during On the Towns “Lonely Town.” An energetic
version of “On the Street Where You Live” (with the band hiply
quoting both “I’m Beginning to See the Light” and “Old
Man River”) is highly recommended.
