Our Take

Ah, Claudine Longet, the charming chanteuse with a voice as smooth as a freshly ironed silk scarf. Her latest album, Colors, is a kaleidoscopic journey through the whimsical world of 1960s pop.

Produced by the legendary Tommy LiPuma and arranged by the incomparable Nick DeCaro, Colors is a delightful concoction of breezy melodies and lush orchestration. Longet's vocals float effortlessly over the dreamy orchestral arrangements, transporting the listener to a sun-drenched paradise where the cocktails are endless and the hearts are light.

From the infectious bounce of "Hello Hello" to the wistful yearning of "Cuddle Up," Longet’s velvety tones are a joy to behold. The album's title track, "Colors," is a psychedelic gem that sparkles and shimmers with its swirling strings and ethereal vocals.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on Colors. Longet dives deep into the darker side of love on tracks like "Sometimes" and "Think of Rain," revealing a vulnerability and depth that adds a bittersweet edge to the album.

Overall, Colors is a delightful slice of 60s pop that showcases Longet's impeccable taste and timeless style. With its lush arrangements and infectious melodies, this album is sure to be a hit with fans old and new. So grab yourself a cocktail, kick back, and let Claudine Longet serenade you into a technicolor dream.
