I can't say enough good things about this cd. Once again Toni
has given another breathtaking performance. For me, many of the
songs were new, which is always a treat. Those songs that were
first released on the 'Never Let Me Go' cd have a warmth that
they lacked on the previous recording. The accompaniment is superb,
and always provides just the right emotional underpinning for
each song. On a few songs, however, I couldn't help but imagine
a string section swelling in response to Toni's emotional pleas,
or a sax player giving counterpoint to a sigh, or a rhythm section
pounding out a beat as Toni swings.
As always, the signature Rumbo [recorders studio] sound is apparent,
and the recording is top notch. I'm looking forward to the next
cd. If it's not too late to suggest a song, how about "I'm
A Fool to Want You"? I think Toni could really pour her heart
into it, and its lower register would suit her voice really well.

Dear Toni:
I think the two best songs off this new CD are "Tenderly"
which you dedicated to your father which I think is very special
to remember a beloved parent in such a special way. Having been
the inspiration for your love of great music, I'm sure he is greatly
missed. This version is crisper and shows off your true vocal beauty
slightly fuller than on your original version off your 1991 CD,
Never Let Me Go. The original is nice but this one shows more strength
and honesty in your vocal performance.
My other favorite song would be "I'm Glad There is You"
which has always been a favorite standard of mine. All these songs
are nice but please release more music with your talented husband
Captain too because as a duo your voice and sound cannot be beat.

Dear Toni,
I think this new cd is the best you've ever done. I have just recently
gotten into the purchase of old Captain and Tennille albums, but
I don't believe I've ever heard you sound more sexy, or confident.
Up to this point I thought you showed your truest talent on the
Neil Sadaka tune You Never Done It Like That. However, I was wrong
again because you get better, and better with every release. I don't
want to take too much of your time, so I just want to say I love
you and your work. Please don't ever stop singing.
Sincerely,
Joe, your biggest fan

- Just bought
the CD this past week.
I was very
impressed with Toni's vocals. After this many years in the biz,
she still has it! I was fortunate to catch a C&T concert at
the House of Blues, Los Angeles, CA a few years ago. My favorite
section of the show was her solo jazz/big band performance. Not
to mention, Toni still looks fabulous!! My friend and I were awestruck
listening to her sing "Guess who I saw today," which
was a very moving performance.
I was so impressed
that I insisted we see the stage show, "Victor Victoria"
to hear Toni deliver another excellent performance as a commanding
lead stage presence and singer. This was truly a performance of
a lifetime and a milestone for Toni. Toni, you pulled the stage
show of "Victor Victoria" off with ease.
My favorite track on the new CD is "The Last Dance".
This song has a new twist to former TT recordings. This song took
me all the way back to the "Moonglow" album, where I
hear the similar style of fading used on the track "Happiness
is just a thing called Joe." I am so thankful that CD is
available today on CD. I plan to purchase it immediately as I
currently own the vinyl recording only. It has since aged in it's
heavy rotation playback on my turntable! The fader at the end
of "Last Dance" combined with the melodic piano accompianment
after Toni's exiting vocal lyrics send me off to romance land
in a soothing way. This reminded me of a track recorded by the
Carpenters called "Look to your dreams" from their "Voice
of the Heart" CD, released after the unfortunate loss of
Karen Carpenter. Both "Dreams" and "Dance"
contain similar elements and spirit in the way they are arranged.
Thank you for entertaining me for the last 25 or so years. I look
forward to the next CD and future live performances I will surely
attend if they are in Southern California.
My best, Eli

I received this cd the day i was leaving for my summer holiday
at the beach So, I tossed it in with the other discs I had packed
and later that night popped it in while I cooked dinner. I was
blown away!
The
theme of just a piano and THAT VOICE!!! Delicious! Ms. Tennille's
voice has [not] been dimmed by the years, it's strong and sweet
at once. She makes it sound so effortless, not like most "pop
divas" who get so lost in riffing and vamping you can't hear
a melody.
I
played this cd every night and always had friends or dinner guests
begging for it, even my mom loved it-talk about bridging the generation
gap! Every song is a gem but my faves are "I'v Got a Crush
on You", "Candy", "Tenderly" and "For
All We Know". Can't wait for the sequel, after all who hasn't
loved and lost?

I have been listening to Toni Tennille since Daryl 'The Captain"
Dragon recorded Love will keep us together. All I can say is KEEP
IT UP.
Toni's rich voice on her new CD "Incurably Romantic" is
absolutely awesome. I always had an interest in jazz music and Toni's
performances and other albums have made appreciate this rare and
beautiful music even more. I believe that Toni and Daryl with their
music helped people and many parents and teens connect - I had a
wonderful relationship with my parents as a child, as a teenager
and now as an adult, and with Toni and Daryl's music it was enhanced
over time. Thank you for choosing your music with class!
Thank you,
Kevin

Referred from Toni Tennille's new website announcing her brand new
solo CD. Been a fan of hers for 25 years, she keeps getting better
and is without question one of the most gifted & versatile vocalists,
as well as a true musician in contemporary music.
A seasoned performer, not many vocalists would attempt to record
an album with only a piano as accompaniment. In my opinion, she
has not received the recognition she deserves for her immense talent
and her rich sensuous vocals & dedication to music of all genres.
She is a 1ST-RATE-CLASS-ACT who puts her heart & soul into whatever
she's doing.
