Those of you who have bought even one CD produced by the VoiceMasters label know the superb quality that all the releases present.
Well there is an outstanding new CD I want to tell you about called "Rosemary Clooney: Rare & Unreleased." This consists of 30 tracks, 24 of which are MAKING THEIR DEBUT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 2014! (The other 6 are SO obscure I doubt you have heard them even if you are a fan of this great artist).
This includes SONGS ROSEMARY NEVER RECORDED for commercial release! So it's a major event to have this CD available!
Many of you know that Rosemary was the aunt of famous actor George Clooney. Her songs are evergreens and are covered by many younger singers today like Michael Feinstein, Diana Krall, Bette Midler, Jane Monheit, Michael Buble and more.
All of Rosey's studio tracks are now showcased in new musical settings featuring some of the same musicians producer Larry Jordan uses on the Jim Reeves, Patsy Cline and other CDs. So you KNOW the quality is EXCELLENT!!!
There are also 8 live tracks that have never been commercially released before.
So this is truly something unique and fresh.
Even if you think you wouldn't be interested, I hope you will take a moment to listen to some audio samples. These were recorded by Rosey for radio, but done in a recording studio. The VoiceMasters/Mint Audio team of engineers have done a beautiful job of restoration so the "presence" they have achieved on her voice is awesome. Just like the recent 8 CD "The Great Jim Reeves" set, the clarity of sound and richness is beyond belief!
Click the link below to hear this wonderful music by one of the world's most popular female vocalists and I hope you will place your order today! It's being sold by our friends at the Good Music Store who have sort of become the unofficial "debut" site for new music that Larry is producing. -- JULIE
I received word late this afternoon from the Good Music store that within 40 MINUTES of their putting the new Rosemary Clooney CD online, they SOLD OUT of their initial quantity and had to re-order.
They tell me the replacement copies are expected to arrive on Wednesday so go ahead and place your order now if you want one.
In the annals of recorded history, only a handful of singers ever had such a smooth sound as Rosemary Clooney, Jim Reeves, Patti Page, Nat Cole to name a few. They were in their own special league, there's no doubt about it.
I never fully appreciated Ms. Clooney's abilities as a singer until I worked on last year's CD "Bing Crosby & Rosemary Clooney: The New Recordings." I was just amazed at how good she was; far, far better than I suspect most people today even imagine.
This gal was incredible.
Do yourself a favor and listen to the samples on the Good Music site. The musicians and I thoroughly enjoyed working on the project and to have a couple hundred initial copies of a CD sell out in 40 minutes is unreal. And that's just the tip of the iceberg because there is no upward limit on the number of copies that can be pressed.
So THANK YOU JULIE for sending out the promo to the Reeves mailing list. I think that did the trick and drove people to the Good Music store. (They say thank you btw).
Hurray for Rosey! Order your copy of this truly beautiful CD right now!
