Our Take

Mel Torme, the Jazz legend, is back with his latest album "Sing For Your Supper," and let me tell you, he's serving up a feast for the ears.

From the moment you press play, you're hit with Torme's smooth-as-butter vocals that are sure to make you weak at the knees. The man has still got it, no doubt about it.

The album kicks off with the lively track "Steppin' Out with My Baby," and it's like Torme is taking you by the hand and leading you onto the dance floor. You can't help but tap your feet and sway to the music.

But don't be fooled by the upbeat tempo, Torme shows off his emotional depth with tracks like "When Sunny Gets Blue" and "My One and Only Love." The man knows how to tug at your heartstrings.

And let's not forget the impeccable arrangements on this album. The horns, the strings, the piano - they all come together seamlessly to create a lush, rich sound that is pure musical bliss.

Overall, "Sing For Your Supper" is a triumph for Mel Torme. He may be getting on in years, but his talent is timeless. So grab a glass of wine, sit back, and let Torme serenade you into the night. You won't regret it.

About the artist

Mel Tormé

Mel Torme, also known as "The Velvet Fog," was a true Renaissance man in the world of music. With a career spanning over six decades, Torme not only wowed audiences with his smooth vocals but also impressed with his talents as a songwriter, actor, and drummer. Born in Chicago in 1925, Torme was a child prodigy who began performing professionally at the tender age of 4. By the time he was a teenager, he was already a seasoned performer, captivating audiences with his velvety voice and charming stage presence. Torme's music career took off in the late 1940s when he joined the Mel-Tones, a vocal group that gained popularity for their tight harmonies and innovative arrangements. Torme's solo career soon followed, with hits like "The Christmas Song" and "Blue Moon" cementing his status as a jazz icon. But Torme was more than just a crooner. He was also a talented songwriter, penning hits for artists like Judy Garland and Ella Fitzgerald. In addition, Torme dabbled in acting, appearing in films and TV shows throughout his career. Despite his success, Torme remained humble and down-to-earth, always putting music and performance above all else. His passion for his craft was infectious, and his influence can still be felt in the music world today. So here's to Mel Torme, the Velvet Fog who floated effortlessly through the world of music, leaving behind a trail of jazz-infused magic for generations to come.
