Baby, I'm Fine

Editorial Reviews
Bob Protzman - Contributing Writer, Down Beat Magazine , July, 2002
"A mature singer with a strong, attractive voice, Wendee Glick has a lot of potential for success."

Ron Della Chiesa - WGBH Radio/WPLM Radio, July, 2002
"An auspicious recording debut for a fine singer who does justice to the Great American Songbook."

Album Description
Wendee's debut CD, "Baby, I'm Fine," featuring clarinetist/tenor saxophonist Ken Peplowski, pianists Paul Broadnax and Steve Heck, bassist Marshall Wood, guitarist Bob Ullman, and drummer Les Harris, Jr. is a sonorous compilation of jazz standards that showcases Wendee's vocal abilities. On upbeat tunes such as Fats Waller's "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter", one can just imagine her singing with a big band orchestra, and she does. Her renditions of tunes such as "Crazy He Calls Me" and "Come in From the Rain," both on the CD and both ballads (her forte) are simply breathtaking. She sings them with great emotion. The original title song "Baby, I'm Fine" sounds like an old standard already. Band Members: Wendee Glick - Vocals/Percussion (#11) Ken Peplowski - Clarinet/Tenor Saxophone Paul Broadnax - Piano Steve Heck - Piano/Vocals Bob Ullman - Guitar Marshall Wood - Bass Les Harris, Jr. - Drums

4 out of 5 stars Great compilation.......2002-05-10

I don't actually own this particular compilation, however, since I own nearly every recording represented on these discs...I think I'm qualified to comment. This is a wonderful representation of the high quality of work that DRG Records does.
The previous review is way off the mark. This is definitely not a waste of time or money. This is 25 years of preserving Broadway shows, Off-Broadway shows, studio recordings (mostly from the city center concerts), etc. So what if they "aren't as good as the original", DRG is preserving many recordings and artists that other mainstream labels don't or won't. You have wonderful recordings from Brian Stokes Mitchell, Nathan Lane, Debbie Gravitte, Tyne Daly, Anthony Perkins, Joanna Gleason, Marin Mazzie, Carol Burnett, Heather Headley, Patti LuPone, Barbara Cook, etc., and many of these are from Original Cast Recordings just as they appeared on Broadway. This is an excellent sampler of the work going on at DRG. No...I'm not an employee...just an avid listener and collector of theatre recordings.

1 out of 5 stars A disappointment.......2001-12-15

There's a reason you've probably never heard of most of the songs and shows on this album, not to mention most of the artists. This is a second-rate collection of second-rate numbers performed by mostly second-rate artists. In the case of the shows that were revivals, the performances on the original cast recordings were better. Don't waste your money.
