I say this out of love, Brent. Jan 19 2004
Format:Audio CD
I'm a HUGE Brent Spiner fan. I'm also a HUGE music fan, and I do have some formal training. Before my training, this ablum was the bomb, but now its about a C. The material is flawless; these songs have withstood the test of time; that's not the problem. The problem is Brent's voice. Either he didn't have the necessary control or his ear was way off then. I think he does a fanastic job as John Adams in the New Cast Recording 1776, but I also think that he had some formal training to fine tune his voice. If you're a big Brent fan, then maybe the CD is worth $79.00, but don't be disappointed about the quality. If you're not a Brent fan, and want to buy the album for the songs it contains, even if it were twenty dollars, you're better off searching for a 40s Various Artist mix.

Nothing could be finer July 13 2004
Format:Audio CD
Yes, this album is by "Data" of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Brent sings mostly standards here, with the exception of one recent song by Randy Newman. Brent has a decent tenor voice, but he can't really sustain a note. Any time he tries to hold a note, there is quite a bit of vibrato. Not Tiny Tim level, to be sure, but still a bit distracting. The main fault with the album is that arrangements by Dennis McCarthy are rather dull and unimaginative. The two songs here that were arranged by John McKinney, on the other hand, are lively and fun. Too bad he didn't arrange the whole album. This album will appeal to Star Trek fans only. Trekkies will be especially interested in "It's a Sin (To Tell a Lie)", which features back-up vocals by LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, Jonathan Frakes and Patrick Stewart, plus a recitation by Stewart.
