Anywhere I Wander: Liz Callaway Sings Frank Loesser

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
After appearing in the revue More of Loesser, Broadway veteran Liz Callaway devoted her first solo album to the composer. Among the selections from Guys and Dolls, How to Succeed..., and The Most Happy Fella, as well as other miscellany, are highlights such as a coy, then swinging "On a Slow Boat to China," a roof-raising "Brotherhood of Man" (guest-starring sister Ann Hampton Callaway), and a gorgeous version of "My Heart Is So Full of You" that showcases this golden-voiced soprano at her heart-breaking best. --David Horiuchi --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

2 out of 5 stars horrible match of singer and material.......2006-02-04

Liz has a nice voice, but is too shrill and operatic for this material. The arrangements are really horrible, too. THey really bring down the whole album. I'd like to hear Ms. Callaway with better accompaniment and material more suited to her style.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Songs in a Beautiful Voice.......2005-10-07

Liz Callaway reinvents Frank Loesser's songs. Liz has a crystalline voice which is perfectly matched to these classic songs. If you are a fan of standards or broadway musicals, you will enjoy this CD.

5 out of 5 stars I LOVE this album.......2004-08-18

Theres a story to how I stumbled upon this wonderful album. I listen to a local radio station on Sunday mornings and they play the classics, and a local composer always does a demo of a disc. I happened to turn on the radio the morning after a heart breaker, and I heard the song, "I'll Know/Somebody Somewhere". My faith suddenly restored.

This woman has talent beyond imagination. She also was the singing voice of Anastasia (on Fox's Animated movie). Her voice is whimsical, magical and comforting. Her tribute to Frank Loesser is just enchanting. My favorite songs include, "Inch Worm", "My Heart is So Full Of You" and the newest song "Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year". I recommend this album if you just want to listen to something happy and cheerful. If you are a music buff, add this to your collection, it is a MUST! You'll be smiling and singing along before you know it! :-) Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars So Good............2003-05-18

I Bought This Cd Twice!! I Bought This Cd Years Ago When It Was Originally Released And I Fell In Love With Liz Callaway's Beautiful Voice!!! Now Fynsworth Alley Has Rereleased This Gem With A New Song Added "Spring Will Be A Little Late This Year". This Whole Cd Is Full Of Magical Performances..."My Heart Is So Full Of You" Is So Glorious My Words Would NEVER Do It Justice!! Another Wonderful Recording By The Very Talented Liz Callaway.

5 out of 5 stars A remarkable talent!.......2003-03-23

Just like her equally talented sister, Liz has an amazing voice which suits this wonderful collection of Frank Loesser tunes so well. She (along with the talented musicians who accompany her) gives each song a fresh, personalized interpretation.

It's hard to pick one standout in this collection, but Liz' duet with Ann on "Brotherhood of Man" is the bomb! Even Jay Leonhart drops by to support her on "If I Were a Bell."

Personally, I think the folks at Fynsworth Alley have done a magnificent job in bringing the best of Broadway on record.
