Grammy Rosemary sings about her girls...
July 12 2001
Format:Audio CD
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that it is a very mature and loving grandmother who is singing about her girls on this album. Just carefully pick out a bunch of songs that suit her voice, make sure that they connect with the theme of "Mothers and Daughters" and away we go!
While Clooney once again chooses only those songs that fit her voice like a silk glove, the opening number, "Thank Heaven" (for little girls) may have been a necessity rather than flattery. All the other songs were pleasant to hear and complimented Grandma Clooney in only the best way possible.
I couldn't consider this to be her absolute best work, since I found so many of her other editions more entertaining. For the Clooney collector, it is a must have. I vote that you add it to your collection and enjoy it for what it is worth.... A tribute to her little girls!
"reflections of love for her family ~ Girl Singer!"
April 22 2001
Format:Audio CD
There is no better interpreter of lyrics than our Rosie, the "Girl Singer" ~ has the rare ability to put herself so completely in a song and make it her own. What other performer takes great songs, mixing them with her velvety rich voice ~ providing inspiration and powerful emotion.
Opening track ~ "THANK HEAVEN FOR LITTLE GIRLS", is touching sentiment with the women in her family (daughters/grand-daughters/sister-in-laws/sister) ~ how seldom Rosie has told them, but with this album and through music they will cherish and love every selection. Must make mention of the final track ~ "SISTERS" (Irving Berlin), performed by Rosie & Betty Clooney with Paul Weston & His Orchestra/recorded June 23, 1954 ~ the harmony is so instinctive that if Rosie coughed, Betty would find a third for it.
Want to thank ~ John Oddo (producer/conductor/arranger/pianist) ~ Glen Barros, John Burk & Allen Sviridoff (executive producer) ~ Leslie Ann Jones (recorded/mixer) ~ and Concord Jazz for this look into the inner most feelings of this legendary "Girl Singer"!
Total Time: 55:16 on 17 Tracks...Concord Jazz CCD-4754-2...(1997)

Charming and Sweet with a Touch of Sly
This is a fine cd. Rosie's voice has mellowed over the years and on this recording it is dark and has a touch of the velvet fog in it, but it works. Read more

This cd was a big turn off, it could have had better results
This cd seemed doomed from the very beginning. Let me try to explain. For starters, it used a lot of electronic instrumentation. I would have preferred acoustic instrumentation. Read more

EMOTIONAL AND AFFECTING TO THE NTH DEGREE

Clooney Scores !
Miss Clooney has a concept CD that celebrates mothers and daughters in song. Good idea, fine result! She misses on a few selections but they don't detract from the composite. Read more

This is a very sweet and touching collection of songs.
I have searched and searched for the song "Turn Around" because my mother used to sing it to me when I was little. Read more
