Who cares about PC gimmickry? This is a fantastic album by one of the great modern jazz groups, and its finest daughter. Holly is on top form, her smokey velvet voice gently coaxing you from whatever mundane reality you must endure and into the jazz club of your imagination. Hate the saccharine strains of Que Sera Sera? Not after you hear Holly's version! This is a must-have CD for any lover of serious vocals.

This is a great live document of the Holly Cole Trio and is very well recorded , showing off the quality of one of jazz's top combos. Holly herself is in great form (as usual) but, and here is a big but, part of this CD is multimedia and despite it needing what is now very little in the way of processing power i could not get it to work properly. Fortunately this does not affect the audio tracks but be warned that it may disappoint if you buy it, but it most definately worth buying

This album will make you a fan
5 Sep 2000
Format:Audio CD
Recorded from live performances (the best way to appreciate Holly Cole, whose studio releases have sometimes been uneven), this enhanced CD is a fabulous look at a very talented song stylist. Cole's premier gift is restyling chestnuts you thought you knew backwards and forwards (and maybe never wanted to hear again). "Que Sera Sera," Doris Day's gift to insomnia, turns into an absolute gem when Holly sings it. She is as comfortable with Stephen Sondheim ("Losing My Mind" from FOLLIES) as she is with Tom Waits ("Train Song," "Tango 'Til They're Sore") and Bob Telson ("Calling You," a little known diamond from the soundtrack of the Percy Adlon film BAGDAD CAFE).
Whatever you do, don't ignore the multimedia! Pop this into a computer, Mac or PC, and check out the videos. The video for "I Can See Clearly Now" will give you chills. Once you hear this album, you will become a Holly Cole fan. But please see her live; that's where all the real magic happens.

Wake up and play it on your computer!

Format:Audio CD
All those other 5 star reviews have it right, a great CD. What they don't mention is the multimedia part of the CD. It includes quicktime video of four songs from the concert (Including 'Little Boy Blue', which is not on the audio CD portion.), two music videos and various Q&A with Holly, stuff about the Band, etc. Not like being at a live concert, but it does add a lot to the experience of the album. So that's why it looks a little short on music! Try it, PC or Mac, you'll like it.

The best of all of them
3 Oct 1999
Format:Audio CD
I have all of her CDs, but this one takes the cake. It's fairly short selection of live performances, but they are outstanding, especially "Train Song" - I haven't heard anything as fascinating and beautiful as this in a long time. Plus, there's plenty of multimedia stuff to keep you occupied. Enjoy!!!
