Steve Tyrell专辑介绍：Review by Al Campbell 　　 　　 　　Vocalist Steve Tyrell began his salute to the great American songbook with the 1999 release A New Standard. The tribute continues with Its Magic: The Songs of Sammy Cahn as Tyrell explores 13 of his favorite songs written by the legendary composer. In a roundabout way, this set not only pays tribute to Sammy Cahn, but also his collaborators. Gene De Paul is musically acknowledged with the inclusion "Teach Me Tonight," a song associated with Frank Sinatra. Seven of the tracks were co-written with Jimmy Van Heusen and have become iconic songbook standards including "The Second Time Around," "Call Me Irresponsible," and "Aint That a Kick in the Head." They also wrote several tunes made popular by Sinatra: "Come Fly with Me," "The Tender Trap," and "All the Way." Cahns partnership with Jule Styne is also highlighted with "I Guess Ill Hang My Tears Out to Dry," "Its Been a Long, Long Time," "Saturday Night (Is the Loneliest Night of the Week)," and "I Fall in Love Too Easily." The 2013 release of Its Magic: The Songs of Sammy Cahn coincides with the modern crooners extended New York gig, succeeding the late vocalist Bobby Short at the Café Carlyle, where the great American songbook has been celebrated for several decades.
