One of her best November 16, 2008
Mary Koeker (Riverside, CA)
This is a wonderful collection of Natalie Cole. It includes some new and some old, including some songs mixed like she did "Unforgettable" with her father's voice.
One of her best!
Darn good collection of standards November 4, 2008
Keith R. Smith (San Leandro, CA)
Natalie Cole's voice is flawless on this collection of American Standards. Just like UNFORGETTABLE her emotive yet perfectly controlled vocals seemlessly plays with the lush orchestration. The clarity of her voice reminds one of the great Ella Fitzgerald.
It's fun to hear her have fun with the uptempo songs, even inject a bit of soulfulness (remember the power-house voice from the 70's?), but it is on the ballards where one feels the full range and color of her deceptively simple vocal style. This is highlighted in "You Go To My Head", "Here's That Rainy Day" and "Lollipops and Roses", where she pulls every bit of emotion out of the lyrics.
The songs are possibly the lesser known or remembered standards - the kind of songs that makes the listener initially scratch the brow but then go "oh yeah - I remember this". Orchestration is sometimes a bit expected but nonetheless perfect for Cole's voice.
This collection is a great way to introduce young children to great music and wonderful singing. My kids are amazed to hear that the person singing is the same on the 70's classics "This Will Be - An Everlasting" and "I've Got Love". It just goes to show that a great singer can sing anything.
Natalie is a winner November 2, 2008

Although I don't think this is the best CD Natalie Cole has ever done, it is still very good and pleasant to listen to. I like it better each time I listen to it. She certainly is a credit to the legacy of her father and continues to reach for better performances all the time. May she sing for a long time to come.
Not as good as her first, but "Still Unforgettable" October 22, 2008

I purchased "Unforgettable -- With Love" 17 years ago, and it has been one of my favorite albums -- and one which developed my love for old 40's & 50's standards, as well as those that Nat King Cole made famous. With that in mind, I eagerly purchased her "Still Unforgettable" album.
While her singing is still as good as ever, I was a little disappointed that "Still Unforgettable" didn't grip me as much as her original "Unforgettable" album. There are some "unforgettable" tracks, such as "Walking My Baby Back Home" (the most upbeat duet with her late father to date), as well as "Why Don't You Do Right," "Somewhere Along the Way" and "The Best Is Yet To Come." The rest of the CD consists of up-tempo Big Band arrangements (i.e.,"Nice 'n' Easy"), toe-tapping jazz arrangements ("Rain or Shine" and "It's All Right With Me"), and slow, lushly-orchestrated pieces (i.e., "You Go To My Head," "How's That Rainy Day," "But Beautiful" and "Until the Real Thing Comes Along"), as well as easy listening tracks, such as "Lollipops and Roses." The only track that I felt was really weak was "Something's Gotta Give," which was a bit too repetitive for my tastes.
If you purchase this CD through Amazon.com, you get a bonus track, "How Do You Keep the Music Playing," which is also very good.
In general, this is a very good CD and one I would highly recommend -- especially if you purchase it with "Unforgettable -- With Love."
Still smooth as ever October 20, 2008

Once again Natalie Cole has proven she has the same smooth pipes of her late father. Silky, smoky and extremely easy to listen to.
