I'm going to have to consult a thesaurus to come up with some
new adjectives to put into words my thoughts on Toni's new CD.
So, here it goes. Simply put, Incurably Romantic is simply the
best. Tah dah! And
to Kathy Rubbicco - My mother was right; I should have continued
with my piano lessons as a child. Do you think it's too late (smile)? |

---I have been a fan of The Captain and Tennille since 1975...My name is Darren Quello and my e mail address is LVMUSKRAT@AOL.com if any other fans would like to correspond... My favorite song on the cd is "I've Got A Crush On You"...I have always loved that song and often wondered what it would sound like if Toni sang it...Now I know....Toni does a beautiful job...My favorite instrument is the piano...I LOVE THIS CD. I heard Toni sing her song "Circles" with just a piano and no back up singers a few years ago at Whiskey Pete's in concert and I feel thats how that song should have been recorded...her version in concert was way better than the way she recorded it on the album in 1977. I am very glad this CD came out and am waiting anxiously to hear what songs she is gonna record on her CD in the fall...I would like to suggest for her last song on the next CD ... "Goodnight Sweetheart". That song was my Grandma and Grandpa's "special" song. I really like this style and I am sure all of Toni's fans will too!!! Great work Toni!!! LVMUSKRAT@AOL.com |

I have been a fan of Toni Tennille and the Captain and Tennille
since 1975. It has been a joy following Toni's career because she
sings with so much passion and truly makes every song hers. She
made a stellar debut as a solo artist with More Than You Know and
has continued to grow and experiment as an artist. While it is true that Incurably Romantic is Toni Tennille's first cd with only piano accompaniment, it is not the first time Toni has recorded with piano only. Gems like "Smile For Me One More Time", "Baby Me", "Guess Who I Saw Today", "Someone To Watch Over Me", and "I Thought About You"--to name only a few Tennille/piano ballads---showcase Toni's ability to keep the song and the lyrics at the center of her emotional performances. On this cd, Toni Tennille masters each song and her performance is flawles throughout. There are, in fact, no "misfires" on this recording. Toni sings confidently, yet keeps her powerful voice under control, avoiding some of the problems evident on Things Are Swingin'/Tennille Sings Big Band. Her phrasing is appropriate and her interpretations are fresh; she includes many long-forgotten "preludes" and verses to these classic songs. For example, "At Last" begins with a short verse about love passing one by , but then quickly develops a jazz feel that will put a smile on the faces of those familiar with Etta James' version. You can't help but smile throughout Toni's interpretation of "Sweet and Slow". For me, the standout cut on this collection is "Tenderly". Words cannot describe how Toni Tennille transforms this song into an emotional event. Admittedly, "Tenderly" is one of my favorite songs; I have a number of recordings of this tune by other singers (Melissa Manchester and Natalie Cole, for example), but Toni delivers this song to a new level. Her performance is heart achingly beautiful. She equals the masterful performance of "Tenderly" found on Never Let Me Go. In short, Incurably Romantic is pure musical joy from start to finish. The pianist, Kathy Rubbicco, is superb. And the quality of the recording is op-notch. Elegant and unhurried, Incurably Romantic is Tennille at her zenith. Gregory W. Vigue (vigue@stinson-law.com) |

I've been a fan of Ms. Tennille's for so long, and I didn't think
music could get better than her albums "More Than You Know"
and "All of Me"...but I think that this is quite possibly
her greatest musical achievement. |

Toni Tennille's new CD, "Incurably Romantic", further
proves that she is simply one of the finest singers working today.
It is the first time Toni has recorded accompanied only by piano.
Her voice is rich, warm, and extremely emotional. Since her early days recording as part of Captain & Tennille, it was evident that Toni possessed an amazing voice. Old gems like "Gentle Stranger", "Happier Than The Morning Sun", "Come In From The Rain", and "Dream" proved her ability to sing much more than Top 40 pop. This recording ranks as one of her best and further showcases her versatility. Buy this CD and be swept away by her wonderful singing and the ace piano playing by Kathy Rubbicco. Toni, you have made this fan very happy! Arthur L. in R.I. |

It is always a thrill to hear new material from Ms. Tennille. This CD is no exception. The material is unique in that it is simply accompanied by a piano. This minimalist approach only serves to exemplify the interpretive talent of Ms. Tennille. Those of us who have faithfully followed Toni's career over the last twenty five years have been priveledged to hear her voice grow and mature along with our own musical tastes. Her voice has aged like a fine wine. Where the velvety subtlety of her early work (as half of Captain & Tennille) has mellowed some, it has been replaced by a rich and warm strength that only experience can bring. Her talent is self evident in that those fortunate enough to hear her perform live hear the same confident singing heard on her recordings. The material is not only (as the title states) "Incurably Romantic", but is also quite challenging. Ms. Tennille approaches all of it in a manner that truly shows her wide range and versatality of style. Whether it's richly humming a soft melody of a ballad, or singing with a sassy jazz feel (as on "At Last"), Tennille sounds at home. I highly recomend this CD to anyone who enjoys an extreme talent such as Ms. Tennille singing timeless material. Thank you Ms. Tennille for continuing to produce such music for your fans to enjoy! Sincerely, Michael Holden - Longtime Fan |

I have been a devoted fan of Toni Tennille and the Captain &
Tennille since 1975. Toni's new CD, "Incurably Romantic",
is one of her best ever. Her voice is as strong, soothing, yet sassy
as ever. I truly enjoy listening to this CD. It is very relaxing
and definitely romantic! Sit back, turn the lights low and drown
in the warm of these love songs! The only thing that could top this new CD would be a new CD from the Captain & Tennille! Toni and Daryl's love has stood the test of time and their music too! I have watched Toni's talents through the years from music to television to Broadway and have been amazed at how easily she can transform and shine in each new arena. She is truly a versatile performer and one that should not go unwatched. You will not be disappointed with your purchase of this CD. Listening to the wonderful piano playing of Kathy Rubbicco and the beautiful and breath-taking voice of Toni Tennille will be time well spent. And the best part is that you can enjoy this CD over and over again! Best Wishes Toni! Anxiously awaiting your next recording and/or performance! Your longtime Fan - Julie Griggs Virginia, USA - |

--- I've got to share with all Toni Tennille's dedicated fans how woderful her new CD is, It's like every other album or CD of Toni's or Toni and Daryl's, once you turn it on, you're hooked throughout the entire CD. Toni's work is fabulous and makes all us fans proud. I have been a fan since I first saw Captain and Tennille perform Love Will Keep us Together and I have continued as an avid fan until Today. I would like to also share with everyone that on Toni and Daryl's 20 years of Romance CD, the song "Wind Beneath My Wings". On the original CD this song was not included. On a seperate version of 20 years of Romance, Wind beneath My Wings was included. For those of you who like this song, In my opinion, Toni has done this song better than any other performer I have ever heard. Don't
deprive yourself of this wonderful rendition, Wind Beneath My
Wings is a very mellow and meaningful song, and as I just stated,
Toni has out-done all other versions. Please also treat yourself
to this single. It is truly remarkable and Toni has once again
captured our undivided attention with her fabulous vocals |

I have followed Toni's career for many years. If she's on TV---I'm
watching. If she has a new album---my wallet smiles as it opens.Her
new CD is just wonderful. And I can't wait for the fall when she
releases the "love gone wrong" songs. In
a nutshell, Toni Tennille proves she can do it and do it like
no other. She's truly the last of a dying breed: A true, sophisticated
Southern Lady! |
