    Album Description

    Tom Verlaine borrows his name from the 19th century French symbolist poet Paul Verlaine, and nowhere in his 20-year catalog does Tom's music more closely follow his namesake's poetic philosophy than on "Warm And Cool". Unlike most of his work, this one is entirely instrumental, with guitars often filling the traditional role of a voice in the melody. Originally released in 1992 in the wake of a short-lived Television reunion and the rise of Nirvana into a musical environment that clearly favored loud guitars and walls of sound. The sparse soundscapes on "Warm And Cool" represent a clear rebellion from that. Now the record is being re-issued in the midst of another Television reunion and a music scene overstuffed with Television wannabes. It was originally available in the '80s on Ryko, but has been out of print for over ten years.

    5 out of 5 stars Finally!.......1999-05-02

    I'm a Chris Connor fan who started collecting her records with her first Bethlehem releases when I was 13. I even have V-Discs of her with Claude Thornhill. Her years at Atlantic were heady--each album a revelation of her unequaled knowledge of American popular music, her unfailing taste, her beautiful voice, inventiveness, inimitable use of time and silence, her surrounding herself with the best musicians, arrangers, producers and engineers. She made a lot of money for Atlantic and they responded with beautiful packaging and promotion. Chris Connor and Will Friedwald have made a nearly perfect selection of songs for this collection, including some ultrarare Atlantic singles (but there are more and they deserve a set of their own). This is a rhapsodic collection beginning to end, mastered beautifully, presented lovingly. After decades of being a Chris Connor devotee I finally got to meet her and wasn't surprised to find a totally natural, very warm and friendly, very beautiful (tall, blonde, always elegantly costumed) lady who--unlike (sadly) so many singers--is versed in her own history and can answer those fan-type questions with ease. If you are not familiar with Chris Connor, do get this set. You will listen to it again and again and marvel at this great, inimitable talent. Although Anita O'Day, June Christy and Chris Connor are often spoken of in one breath, they really are three separate and quite different artists vocally, stylistically and interpretively. They also respected and liked each other's music through the years all three were scoring hit album after hit album. "Warm Cool" is all hits--don't miss it!

      4 out of 5 stars Very cool.......2006-04-19

      This is one of those strange little albums that is hard to categorize, like the Penguin Cafe Orchestra, or Moondog. This is NOT a Television album, nor does it fit in with his works that include vocals. The tone of the guitar is more of a deep, Dick Dale or Duane Eddy sound, and it all has a noirish, film-score sound. You'll recognize several cuts as filler on public radio. Not the most amazing album ever recorded, but very good indeed.

      4 out of 5 stars Excellent re-release of an unfortunately overlooked album.......2005-11-25

      Tom Verlaine is likely already cooler than most people will ever be in their lives. He entered the music scene as a member of the Neon Boys, and later helped write a couple classics as part of the band Television. Warm And Cool is a much different record than what one might expect from Verlaine, though, as it's not only instrumental, but also stylistically much different than the work he did with either of his other bands. Originally released back in 1992, it's one of those albums that seems oddly timeless, with a style that dips into rock and jazz without taking on the baggage of any particular era.

      Verlaine is joined on the album by Television bandmates Fred Smith and Billy Ficca, as well as Jay Dee Daugherty (who played with The Church, the Patti Smith Band, and others), and interestingly enough, the album is largely improvised. In most cases, Verlaine would play a basic melody on his guitar beforehand, the players would talk about a beat or tempo, then they'd roll with it. The result is an album that's loose and inspired without being sloppy in the slightest. It's also more varied than one might guess.

      The album starts with a slow-burner in "Those Harbor Lights" as Verlaine lays down some smokey coils of guitar over brushed drums while "Sleepwalkin'" shuffles with a healthy swagger while "The Deep Dark Clouds" gets downright atmospheric with sparse, reverbed guitar notes and distant rumbling percussion. A good portion of the opening section of the album actually feels like soundtrack work (a film adaptation of an Elmore Leonard book immediately comes to mind) as the musicians toy with dark alleys and smokey club themes.

      Of course, then the release goes and throws you for a loop, with tracks like the downright bubbly "Boulevard" (which features some deliciously playful guitar from Verlaine) and the hooky warmth of "Little Dance." There are three different versions of the track "Depot" and each one feels like it's gradually cracking the basic elements apart even further. Heck, they even rock out on the more freestyle "Lore," which runs almost seven minutes and features some crashing cascades of cymbals and luscious guitar shredding. Eight bonus tracks not included on the original round out the release and range in variety much more than the actual release, but there are enough good tracks to warrant them. At twenty two tracks and almost seventy minutes total, Warm And Cool is just about what the title states in terms of musical content, and it's a great document of excellent musicians teaming up and falling into sync with one another.

      Album Description

      From the creators of the Grammy® Award-winning Ultra-Lounge series, this is the second offering in the Wonderland collection that delivered holiday favorites Yulesville, Cool December and Under The Mistletoe. These 3 discs are presented with undeniable style and thoughtful arrangement for an exceptional entertainment experience.

      Chapter Three of Love Stories, "Something Warm, Something Cool," offers a bit of a twist. The 16-track jazz-influenced chapter in Love Stories is a bit different from the others in that it brings both aspects of love—the ups and the downs—together, in songs interpreted by some of the great jazz singers, such as Patti Austin, Chet Baker, Shirley Horn and Billie Holiday.

      I have ALL the Ultra-Lounge series cd's and am a collector of jazz/lounge compilations and this cd is far and away above the rest, if not on par with the very best. It is a mixed bag of mostly slower ballads, but all are interesting innovative interpretatons of standards we all know and love. Do not pass this one up! I listen to it everyday. They outdid themselves on this one.

      I have given this album to many children and their parents tell me that the children demand it over and over again... for myself, it is as soothing as if you were back to being 2 years old in a craddle ... It puts you in that special deeply affectionate mood of tenderness and vulnerability, when you know someone is taking care of you without taking advantage of you. Enjoy and give it away for hours of musical love.
