Customer Reviews:
Frankly disappointing.......2002-12-13
Ms. Graves may be touted as an up-and-coming young voice, but I was thoroughly disappointed. Her interpretation of what should be sweet and simple music is hugely melodramatic, and her vibrato is so thick I honestly can't tell if her voice is any good or not. If you like that sort of thing (and some folks do), then it is probably a five-star CD. Myself, I can't stand to listen to O Holy Night -- my favorite carol, and one that should sound pure, reverent, and angelic -- sung with a voice more appropriate to Wagner.
Angel.......2001-12-03
When Denyce Graves sings "Ave Maria," it's like God sent an Angel down to sing it.
gorgeous and moving.......1999-12-20
Miss Graves has truly produced a compelling work of art in the usually pedestrian field of Christmas music. She does not limit herself to the old standards we are all tired of hearing, she includes nativity-based songs from Africa and South America accompanied by the instruments indigenous to these cultures. Miss Graves repetoire is not limited to Western Opera alone, she displays an ability to transcend any conceivable barrier in her path. Be prepared to be amazed.

A Godsend.......2006-02-24
"Louis and the Good Book" is an incredibly wonderful album. Mr. Armstrong's singing and trumpet work is just fantastic and the piano work on Shadrack is just amazing. In addition, there is a sense of playfulness, in both the words and the music, that is a delight to hear. I haven't checked out "Louis and The Angels" yet, but it's worth getting this album for Louis and the Good Book alone.
Yet another side of Louis.......2001-03-23
I just discovered this great MCA UK only 2 for 1 CD. Could there be more? This disc focuses on Louis' gospel and sacred side, one which is not always that apparent in his older recordings.
On "Louis And The Angels" (1957) he is accompanied by the Sy Oliver Orchestra and Choir who lean on the pop side, but in this case it works just fine. Billy Kyle, an All-Star staple, is on piano. You still have Louis' fantastic vocal delivery and trumpet flourishes as well. The choir of course adds an angelic quality that puts these songs in a different light than Louis' straight "good ol' good ones" jazz recordings. There's romance here too, with "You're A Heavenly Thing", "When Did You Leave Heaven" and "I Married An Angel". Louis is right at home with these tunes.
"Louis And The Good Book" (1958) reads much sweeter, with his All-Stars there to back him up, Trummy Young, Billy Kyle, Barrett Deams and others. Again the Sy Oliver Choir makes their appearance known as well. These sessions have a much heavier feel with meaningful tunes such as "Nobody Knows The Trouble I've Seen" and "Sometimes I Feel Like A Motherless Child", two subjects that Louis has dealt with his whole life. On the former, Louis' spoken introduction even makes an attempt to explain his choice to do this type of album. He tells of how there are times when you feel the need to look up. Funny, because as I listen I'm looking up at Louis right now and thanking him for yet another treasure.
