Songs I Love To Sing (Lime Marble Vinyl)

Brook Benton's "Songs I Love To Sing" on Lime Marble Vinyl is a delightful blast from the past, transporting us back to a time when music was smoother than a freshly shaved leg. Benton's velvety vocals are as comforting as a cup of Yorkshire tea on a rainy day, weaving through classic tunes with the finesse of a seasoned crooner. The album opens with the toe-tapping "Fools Rush In," setting the tone for a jazzy journey through love and heartache. Benton's emotive delivery on tracks like "I Love Paris" and "Moon River" tugs at the heartstrings like a particularly skilled puppeteer, leaving us swooning and sighing in equal measure. The Lime Marble Vinyl adds a retro touch to an already timeless collection, making us feel like we're flipping through dusty records in a cosy vintage shop. Each scratch and pop only adds to the album's charm, giving it an authentic, lived-in feel that modern music often lacks. While Benton's style may not be as flashy as today's pop stars, there's a timeless elegance to his music that never goes out of fashion. "Songs I Love To Sing" is a masterclass in old-school charm, perfect for lazy Sunday afternoons or romantic evenings by the fire. So pour yourself a glass of bubbly, sit back, and let Benton serenade you into a state of pure musical bliss.
