Imagine, if you will, a chic jazz club, bathed in the soft glow of candlelight. The air is thick with the scent of expensive perfume and the murmur of sophisticated conversation. This is the world that Comin‘ Home evokes. Tormé’s voice, a silken caress, glides effortlessly over the lush arrangements of Claus Ogerman and Shorty Rogers. It’s a voice that whispers secrets, that promises romance, that exudes an effortless elegance.

The title track, „Comin‘ Home,“ is simply divine. A sophisticated, swinging number that begs to be danced to, preferably in a slinky cocktail dress and a pair of impossibly high heels. The album as a whole is a masterclass in effortless cool, a testament to the power of timeless style. What makes Comin‘ Home so utterly captivating is its ability to transport you.

It’s a journey back to a more glamorous era, a time when music was an art form and sophistication was a way of life. It’s the perfect soundtrack for a cocktail party, a romantic dinner, or simply a quiet evening spent indulging in a little self-care. Ditch the tired pop anthems and embrace the timeless allure of Mel Tormé. True style never fades, and sometimes, the most modern thing you can do is to embrace the classics. You simply must add this to your collection. You’ll thank me later.
