Any Michael Bub'le fans.......

As a matter of fact, I am wrapping up a Michael Buble stocking stuffer for my 75-year old stepfather, a former jazz drummer who has turned me on to all sorts of great musicians like Dinah Washington and Sarah Vaughn. I am also including a k.d. lang CD, who along with Diana Krall, is one of my favorites. Krall, like Sinatra, is a masterful phraser. Sounds very Star Trek. Phrasers on stun! Check out the "Girl in the Other Room CD. Also, the DVD of "Diana Krall Live in Paris" will make you fall in love after two songs. Jane Monheidt is very sweet and so is Norah Jones, but neither have the soul of Diana Krall.

Did someone really say Michael Buble has a better voice (or anything) than Frank Sinatra? Come on, that didn't just happen did it? So the guy who makes his living from being a Sinatra impersonator sounds better than the man he basically lip syncs?

Next an Elvis impersonator from a Vegas lounge is going to be getting recognition as better than Elvis?

Sinatra had perfect pitch! Don't need to say anything else ---------happy holiday to all --may want to check out Shelby Lynne--"just a little lovin " cd --great Dusty Springfield cover also well recorded.

Sorry, but the guy grates on my nerves. Hate his voice and his recycled attempts at Sinatra cool. There was but one Frank, everybody else should just move on. But that's what makes music great- to each his own!

my wife may leave me for him. nice enough singer with real charisma.
better than Sinatra? maybe not so much
