Title - Love and Learn
Artist - Rosemary Clooney

For those unaware, a new album from Hindsight Records, Rosemary Clooney�s Love and Learn, has just been released. The latest project from the label�s Reimagined Series was produced by John F. Forbes and executive produced by Thomas Gramuglia.

�This album is the combination of Rosemary Clooney in her prime, Buddy Cole�s colorful keyboards and John Forbes� orchestrations, which makes Love and Learn both an excellent introduction to her beautiful singing, and a welcome addition for her longtime fans,� expressed Scott Yanow.

1. Harbor Lights
2. I Get A Kick Out Of You
3. Love And Learn
4. Always Together
5. When I Sing
6. Goodbye Blues
7. It Just Happened To Happen To Me
8. Mountain Greenery
9. Anyone For Love?
10. Witchcraft
11. Time For Love
12. You Got
13. I Love You (My Every Thought Is You)
14. You Ol� Son Of A Gun

This gorgeously-sequined, and divinely-orchestrated collection opens on the stunning beauty within Harbor Lights and her laid back, hipsway�d version of I Get A Kick Out Of You, and they are in turn backed seamlessly by the dreamy Love And Learn, the alluring balladry of Always Together, the sweeping When I Sing, and then comes the gently perky, Hammond organ-imbued Goodbye Blues and the upbeat and flirtatious It Just Happened To Happen To Me.

Up next is the free-flowing Mountain Greenery and the charmingly pertinent Anyone For Love? and they are both followed by her dazzling rendition of Witchcraft, a dulcet-engraved Time For Love, the finger-snapping joy of You Got, the album rounding out on the low slung balladry of I Love You (My Every Thought Is You), closing on the almost Christmas-imbibed You Ol� Son Of A Gun.

Session musician Buddy Cole played piano, celeste, harpsichord and organ. The Reimagined Series additional production was recorded, mixed and mastered by John Forbes at Forjam Studios.

�Rosemary Clooney has become one of my favorites of all of the singers that I�ve worked with in this series,� shared producer John F. Forbes. �She has a deep resonance in her voice that really touches my heart and for many other listeners. It is easy for me to feel an emotional connection to her with her voice. She has a beautiful tonality, her phrasing is wonderful, and everything that she sings is warm.�

He continued and said, �My Dad was a big theater organ fan, as was I. Buddy Cole�s organ was going to be in the mix of these performances with Rosemary Clooney and, rather than fighting it, I embraced it and orchestrated around his sound. I considered this a bit of a balancing act for his trio, which was different than the usual piano trio, and led itself to more orchestration than on the other projects.�

�I used a bassless chamber ensemble that included a few cellos, alto flute, oboe, piccolo, and every now and then, a trumpet. I also added vibes on a couple of songs, although most of the vibes one hears is due to the stops Cole used on the organ, which sound great.�
