Bloody 64,631 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Ι enjoyed it more than I expected. I'd love one more jazz album before christmas time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eifulien 2,977 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I love it! The live performances I live for them! Gaga never ceased to amaze the past 2 years despite the mishaps before and during ARTPOP. Very few performances before CTC era can stand up to this. Sorry, it's true. I loved her for the art and the show, the wow factor. But after this, she put a simle elegant classy gown/a dress and show these pipes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlaeUrAnus 16,042 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Jazz does not interest me therefore I have never listened to it. In my messy era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaMegaFan 3,784 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I know it's not for every mood. But when you are in your jazzy mood, it's really brillant album and joyful to listen My favs Anything goes & Icgyabl ew Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swine Monster 15 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 It's amazing, Spoiler But some GaGa & Bennett written jazz songs would of been good too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinthesheep 2,947 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 My sister works singing at jazz bars/with a local jazz band and has a lot of contacts in the community. Whilst there were a few salty folks who were kinda pissed gaga was getting so much praise and attention for something they do all the time, the general consensus seem to agree that it was a good album, not anything extraordinary or spectacular, but GOOD, considering gaga's status as a 'pop' singer and Tony's longevity/age. I know an incredible musician (he is literally a prodigy @ jazz piano/clarinet) and he says her version of Lush Life is one of the best he's ever heard... and I trust his opinion. Though he saw them perform in the US and said the show wasn't great. Overall, a great move on Gaga's part. Kind of reminded me of what Freddie Mercury did on Barcelona (not same genre but...)

Killa 17,722 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I love the arrangments for Nature Boy (and they're singing), Anything Goes, I can't give you anything (my biggest surprise)- Sophisticated Woman, Lush Life were brilliant performances, also But Beautiful I only don't like what they did in I won't dance and It don't mean a thing. It's a brilliant album and much needed. It's amazing how music that's been recorded countless times found a way to be relevant. I want another jazz album, because there's still things they could have done better. She's a musician, this isn't just a card you play and it's over. That's so reductive of little monsters, to say. Musicians like to do music and record it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that's the consensus on the community. The people that actually love jazz won't listen to the album though. But jazz needs new life, and they didn't go for a Diana Krall smooth jazz. Jazz music was much alive in the 90s and even early 2000's. I don't consider them jazz singers though. Not Gaga nor Tony Bennett, that's just the media trying to simplify things to sell.

NewUsername 11,488 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Definitely! It's amazing. And the choice of songs was so good. The only one I don't care much for is Let's face the music and dance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangerous Man 9,245 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 It gave her her 6th grammy so YES! "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
President Biden 5,898 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Yes. I love pop Gaga but I love her jazz work and wouldn't mind another one for a few months while we wait for AutumnGa and LG5 I got drunk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaLuna 12,732 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Yes, it's a fantastic album. Gaga's vocals are amazing and you can tell that she and Tony had so much fun recording it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
