"Now, THAT'S Amore is arguably the swinging crooner’s finest recording to date. Frank Lamphere is a singer well worth discovering" - Scott Yanow
"Throughout the album, the singer includes plenty of concise solos by his sidemen which add to the color, jazz content, and excitement of the performances"
Retro pop-jazz crooner Frank Lamphere's brand new CD
Hear lush ballads, a shimmering Neopolitan mandolin, pulsating Hammond organ, an effective yet unusual alternating clarinet and accordion solo, rich vocalizing, almost oxygen depriving fast-tempo classics and much more...
Now, THAT'S Amore!
