The Songs
This “Smooth & Romantic” collection of songs contain standards written by some
of the greatest composers of all times. Among them, Frank Sinatra’s recording,
“All The Way,” composed by Sammy Cahn. & Jimmy Van Heusen. Another beautiful & rare
standard is “Everything Happens To Me,” a tune written by Matt Dennis and Montgomery Adair, recorded by Nat King Cole. Also included with this “Smooth & Romantic” collection is the beautifully written masterpiece “A Cottage For Sale,” composed by Larry Conley & Willard Robinson. This song was recorded and made popular by the legendary, Billy Eckstine. Another beautiful ballad is “There will Never Be Another You,” composed by Mack Gordon & Henry Warren, performed by the Ed Robinson Jazz Trio, live ‘in-studio.’ The interpretation of these great standards bring a self replenishing splendor that grows increasingly sweeter with each play.
Of the remaining seven songs, written and arranged by Ed Robinson, one song deserves special attention: “If Only.” At the session, in Nurnberg Germany, Ed was joined by two very special guests; Diane Elias & Nancy Harmesten. The voices of these two international Opera Divas singing together produced a quality so rich the identity of their superb ability is unmistakable. This rare combination of Classical Diva voices blended with the creative arrangement of soulful smooth jazz melodies is an event of beauty and majesty to behold.
