I’m listening to the group do “Snowfall”. It’s totally beautiful. Does the group still exist? Are they still recording? God I hope so, they are so exceptional!
The Manhatten Transfer is a brilliant Jazz group that still exists, and has a great many non-holiday CDs available through Amazon.
They are a personal favorite of mine, & a fine way intro to modern Jazz.
Go here–
To find more of their work, including their charming children’s album.
Happy Holidays!
Thanks guys, the link worked well. I do have a couple of their older CD’s (Bop Doo Wopp & The Best of). I’m going to join the fan club. Glad to hear they’re still in busness! The a capella song “Berkeley Square” (Pronounced ‘Barkley’) is fantastic in its voicing and close harmony.
My favorite is the little-played Soldier Of Fortune.
That is a great song…it was a great deal of fun to sing as well. I spent pretty much all of high school singing Manhattan Transfer songs in an a capella group. Ah, the good ole days :sigh:
But have you heard The Bobs?
A few months ago, I actually hear Twilight Zone/Twilight Tone on the Muzak at Wendy’s. haha
Before that, the only time I’d ever heard a MT song other than on a record was Boy From New York City.
