Customer Rating:      Summary: Cabaret Singing at Its Best Comment: Although Nancy LaMott was burdened with a debilitating disease and an premature death, her musical phrasing and interpretation of a song is extraordinary. This CD along with rich orchestrations makes it a wonderful musical experience to the listener.
Customer Rating:      Summary: ANOTHER NANCY LAMOTT WINNER Comment: This is another wonderful CD from Nancy Lamott. Her magnificent voice and style are well-presented on this recording. It's a tragedy that she died so young and that there aren't more of her recordings than there are.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Gorgeous voice, beautiful record Comment: What a wonderful album! The songs are superb, and Nancy's voice is as good as it gets here. Her ability to express the lyric, and set a mood is top notch. The title song is pure bliss-a Broadway style, soaring show-stopper that has a heartfelt lyric and near-perfect vocal. I'm a big fan of Nancy's emotional, tender approach, and the control she uses over that big voice, making it sweet and small in all the right places. My great regret is that I never got to see her perform live. During her busy years, 1985-94 I myself was a full-time working singer (professional name Lynn Randall), and I was in Atlantic City at the same time as she was several times-singing 6 days a week left no time to catch her act-what a shame for me. I sing "Listen To My Heart" myself, and tell Nancy's story when I do.
Customer Rating:      Summary: 'Listen To My Heart; and 'What's Good About Goodbye' Comment: If you have not heard the voice of Nancy LaMott, you really must treat yourself to one of her six CDs. She died in 1995 at the age of 43 and for a number of years her recordings were out of print and were not available.. However, there is a dealer in California who is a genius at finding really hard to find music and he managed to get five of her CDs and one tape for me . Since at last they are available (thanks to years of effort by those who worked with her)I was able to get the one I had on tape and 'Listen To My Heart' for a friend.
Her story is not as sad as it sounds as she accomplished more toward her life long dream in those 43 years than you could imagine. Go on line and read about her amazing life. And then buy some of her music and know how good life can be.
Customer Rating:      Summary: one great, others good Comment: One great song, some other pretty good songs. Who knows what she might have done had she not died just as she was breaking out??
