Listened to Eric Dolphy and Wesseltoft Schwarz Duo just recently but other than that, lots of lo-fi and alt-prog.

I think the problem with a lot of the fusion music is that it's extremely predictable, it's a rock rhythm and the solos all play the same stuff and they play it over and over again ...

Yes, its off Strangers In The Night also did "Call Me" by Tony Hatch on the same album.He also did "Don't Sleep In The Subway" another Hatch song from another album "The World We Knew" that was the album where he does the duet with Nancy "Somthin' Stupid". I like em' John even though a lot don't, more to knowing all those songs myself as I used to hear the radio heaps in the sixties and seventies when Petula Clark was all over it I never bought her stuff as a kid but bought a comp with all the Hatch material a few years back now.  You would not have admitted that you were a fan when you were a kid but funny when you get older, if its good and I like it, who cares  I once said I liked Frank and Dino and the room went silent. Then we threw The Beatles on

I was wondering, what's that weird sound he makes when he sings 'Downtown" and why does he do it? I've always wondered about that.

This one isn't in the discography and I'm not sure where to add it because I can't find any definitive information on what it is. It sounds like a "greatest hits" kind of album with the tracks either remixed or performed fresh. The liner notes are no help other than the booklet inside having a bunch of other Brasilian artists in the series.

No problem here - it's artist's compilation, so it goes under Egberto Gismonti, just compilation - not studio album

Dunno John but I do know he made a mockery of 'Strangers In The Night" at the end of the tune. when he "do be do's" out of tune at the end. Maybe the "uuuhh" sound he makes just before he sings the title word is the exact feeling he had for the tune. . I checked the album notes but Zilch on that. They did say that both of those Hatch songs were chosen for him.

I put it under EG's compilation section. Best fit, but I swear there's been some remixing and/or added stuff to the songs.

Re Sinatra: I agree with your assessment Matt, he had a way of letting you know if he thought a tune was square. His recording of 'Strangers' is almost sarcastic if you ask me. As for the 'Downtown' vocal sound, I think he was trying to put something slightly funky in that squeaky clean song.
