At Home with Friends / Joshua Bell Review

Joshua Bell is so very talented. In this Cd, which I had the pleasure to review for One2One network, he plays the musical gamut, from a song with vocals by Sting, to a Beatles cover ( Eleanor Rigby, with superb vocals by Frankie Moreno,it's AWESOME) to a Latin dance rhumba type song.

A quick review of the songs that I loved best.

Come Again, with Vocals by Sting.
This song was featured on the Aaron Sorkin NBC TV show "Studio 60 on the Sunset strip" during it's run, and I always wanted to own the Cd with that song on it. NOW I DO!


Eleanor Rigby with vocals by Frankie Moreno
I do not know who Frankie Moreno is, but I love his voice and will find a Cd of his soon.

My Funny Valentine sung by Kristin Chenoweth.
I am not a fan of Ms Chenoweth. Her voice usually grates on my nerves. But she does something to tone herself down on this song, and makes it a smooth, and enjoyable listen, something I have never been able to say about her until now.

The beauty of the CD is that it is this diverse, but still really good. I mean it's excellent. I listen to it in the car all the time, and it's so relaxing, it really kills my road rage :)

My 3 yr old daughter likes this Cd, for putting on a tutu and dancing around too. She came and got me one day, wearing her full dance outfit, and kept begging me to "play the pretty songs" and I didn't know what she meant, until I finally tried this and she went into twirling and spinning happily.


All in all,Joshua Bell:At home with Friends is excellent, and well worth anyone's money. I also think it would be a great Christmas present for just about anyone who loves music, because just about all music is on here.
