In The Still Of The Night
Solo
George Dvorsky

Description / My Opinion
Amazon.com - Ordered 04.28.2000 - Shipped 06.02.2000 - Received 06.23.2000

The booklet contains four big color pictures of George, three 'at home' styled, and one 'I'm a killer' one (the back of the jewel box is also a big 'I'm a killer' color picture of him), somehow as the cover picture is. There is also a quarter page text by him (nothing spectacular here).

Songs arranged and conducted by Martin Yates.

Personally, I found all these pictures rather pretentious. I was expecting something very boring, and not surprising at all. I already had heard George in Leading Men Don't Dance but didn't notice him particularly among the other singers. Well, I was very surprised indeed. It's really not a musical recording. It's a "crooner" rendition of musical numbers, and I must admit it's quite well done and not boring at all. All songs have been nicely arranged by Martin Yates to fit the style, and they all construct a consistent album. A pretty nice recording which, if not purely a Musical is enjoyable if you like the style. By the way, this doesn't lower my feeling that the booklet reflects a rather pretentious personality, with all these pictures of himself and George's own web site (but who doesn't have one ?) but maybe I'm wrong. It probably could have been better, but the recording compensates that feeling.
