I would suggest that oceanbound222 continue on their seaward journey and leave matters of music critique alone, seeing as its mighty obvious that whoever they, he or she is..........they got water, not smoke in their eyes. This is a 1derful rendition from a beautiful lady equipped with a soulful voice.
I bought this cassette tape when it was first released. Patti of course, but I bought it because David Pack produced it. He's my hero. GREAT CD (it has more songs than tape or LP).
@neoakira1962 i do not know what they are saying but when the music is good even people from another continents like !! ( hope you are not dissing this song !! lol )
Eu não sei o que vcs estão falando, mas quando a música é boa até pessoas de outros continentes gostam !! ( espero que eles não estejam xingando a música, risos )
Breathtakingly beautiful! For those of you who aren't completely familiar with the sheer brilliance of Patti Austin......"Smoke Gets In Your Eyes" is as fine a "starting point" for your education as possible! Quite simply, Patti possesses one of the finest Female voices in modern POP/R&B history...........period.
With all due respect to The Platters, PA's arrangement is the definitive version of 'Smoke Gets In Your Eyes'. Simply beautiful. If the Grammy's were more about the actual music still, the cd this is from would have won mega-Grammys. Sorry JB fans. Smh. lol
An absolutely beautiful interpretation of a CLASSIC tune...........performed by one of the most under-appreciated, truly PHENOMINAL female vocalists of this generation. From her solo projects, through her collaborations with Quincy Jones, James Ingram, Rachelle Ferrell & Luther Vandross.........people who recognize, appreciate & truly LOVE outstanding vocal talent, know Patti Austin.......quite well.
Stunning. I think this is from 'The Real Me' album from about 1986. The great Jeff Porcaro played on this album...and I think that's his touch on this song too. 'Lazy Afternoon' is another stand-out song from that album.
This version....Patti , and band ...have created a timeless vibe,something so beautiful,yet so melancholy . She sings about every heart ache we humans have felt at the loss of someone we love eternally. Thank you Patti and band. Mario Aranda
We use to have a radio station that played this song. The format of this station was changed in the Fall of 2006 or 2007. So now I only can hear this song on the internet or by making a few clicks on YouTube. I miss you SmoothJazz 107.5 Dallas,TX.
