{"product_id":"romance-on-film-romance-on-broadway","title":"Romance On Film, Romance On Broadway","description":"\u003cp\u003eAmazon.com\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCabaret singer turned crooner Michael Feinstein continues to pay tribute to the American popular standard in his two-disc set Romance on Film, Romance on Broadway. The first disc features Feinstein in front of a live audience singing mostly well-worn ballads from classic films (exception: you may not immediately associate Michel LeGrand and Alan and Marilyn Bergman's \"How Do You Keep the Music Playing?\" with the 1982 Burt Reynolds-Goldie Hawn vehicle Best Friends). The second disc is a studio recording filled with ballads and the occasional swinger (\"Taking a Chance on Love\") from Broadway shows. Accompanied by different combinations of horns and rhythm, Feinstein often stretches a song out to six or seven minutes, thus allowing for relaxed tempos, granting solo opportunities to his first-rate instrumentalists (including pianists Alan Broadbent and Marian McPartland), and indulging his fondness for what he calls the \"sighing moment\"--when he puzzles the audience with an unknown verse to a song, and then gives them the familiar, satisfying, well-loved chorus. Feinstein might rely a bit too much on his falsetto and there isn't the same sense of wit and adventure of his cabaret years, but this is a classy, enjoyable album for late-night listening. --David Horiuchi, ISBN13: B00004Z42R ISBN10: B00004Z42R Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109059645603,"sku":"FA_03-18-2025_MGM_20000376","price":20.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/91JEfhfvfhL.jpg?v=1754563956","url":"https:\/\/usedbookdepot.com\/products\/romance-on-film-romance-on-broadway","provider":"Used Book Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
