MEL TORME...a great singer/intellect discusses singers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This may not be Mel's best book, but as a former professional singer I found its observations fascinating. Mel's knowledge and taste make this de rigeur reading for anyone who sings, or wants to! Mel always projects a warm, regular-guy feeling in his writing, and doesn't lecture. How wonderful that he left behind these volumes(he has written 6 books) for posterity.Mel Torme himself the singer is the ultimate voice...absolutely music at its best.
