Feels So Good
(1977)

by
Chuck Mangione
Due to the title cut, this was a huge seller when it originally came out. Reissued on CD, this set from flügelhornist Chuck Mangione (which helped give guitarist Grant Geissman some fame) is actually stronger from the jazz standpoint than Mangione's subsequent dates. The leader has some good solos, as does Geissman and saxophonist Chris Vadala, ...

Super Hits of the '70s: Have a Nice Day, Vol. 24

Various Artists
Then it all went soft -- well, at least the songs on this 24th volume of Rhino's Super Hits of the '70s series. Whether it was of the disco, folk-pop, bubblegum, novelty, or retro '50s variety, it did seem like most everything on the late-'70s charts bore the slick and sparkly production that would go on to dominate pop music. To wit, here David ...

Children of Sanchez
(1978)
more music like this
by
Chuck Mangione
Thanks to the Latin-inflected title track, Children of Sanchez became another huge hit for Chuck Mangione. The title song even earned him a Grammy for Best Pop Instrumental Performance, and serious jazz listeners will spot a problem with that award -- it was for pop, not jazz. That, of course, is an accurate assessment of Mangione's music, since ...

by
Chuck Mangione
Armed with just his "Feels So Good" quintet and occasionally a couple of brass players, Mangione's more grandiose ambitions are pretty much behind him on his final A&M release. The emphasis is almost entirely on spinning pretty tunes for his new mass audience without alienating or challenging it much. Not that this collection is completely ...

An Evening of Magic, Live at the Hollywood Bowl

more music like this
by
Chuck Mangione
Recorded at the height of Chuck Mangione's fame when "Feels So Good" was still busting up the charts, this double-LP set attempts to recapture the dynamism of his earlier live albums but falls short on a few counts. For one thing, the sound gives the listener no idea of what it was like to be in the audience that evening; there are only fleeting ...

Chuck Mangione
A&M's Best of Chuck Mangione highlights ten of the flugelhornist's popular recordings from the '70s including "Feels So Good," "Children of Sanchez," and "Chase the Clouds Away." As budget-line collections, this one is decent, especially if you're only looking for "Feels So Good." ~ Al Campbell, All Music Guide

The Feeling's Back
(1999)
more music like this
by
Chuck Mangione
Chuck Mangione laid low throughout much of the '90s, perhaps the end result of a disappointing string of albums for Columbia during the '80s. He returned to the road in 1997 and evidently it was a positive experience, since he returned to the studio the following year to cut The Feeling's Back. For all intents and purposes, The Feeling's Back is a ...

Main Squeeze

by
Chuck Mangione
More and more a creature of the studio, Mangione employs a coterie of '70s New York session players on an album that wears its make-out-music intentions right on its velvet sleeve. All of the titles reflect some aspect of a love affair; the playing is intricate but highly controlled and not terribly exciting. Oddly enough, Chuck effectively ...

Rebound's Class Reunion '71: Greatest Hits of 1971 may not offer a definitive portrait of the era, but it does provide a neat snapshot through its selection of soul, soft rock, folk-rock, and album rock hits. The only thing tying the hits together is the year, which is enough context to make the collection quite entertaining. Of course, it helps ...

A curious compilation of lite-jazz and quiet storm favorites, Smooth Sounds is all over the musical map -- alongside more predictable inclusions like George Benson's "Breezin'" and Vanessa Williams' "Save the Best for Last" are oddball selections like the themes to Seinfeld and St. Elsewhere. A real grab bag. ~ Raymond McKinney, All Music Guide

The Best of Chuck Mangione collects various tracks from the smooth jazz pioneer's '80s Columbia recordings. While not as influential as Mangione's '70s output, his '80s albums retain much of what made him so popular an artist -- catchy hooks, lush production and his clear, crisp trumpet sound. Included are such standout tracks as "Journey to a ...

This quick follow-up to Chase the Clouds Away was designed as sort of a portrait of the bustling Mangione family home (Bellavia being his mother's maiden name). Certainly there is more energy on tracks like "Listen to the Wind," the big band streaks of "Torreano," and the appropriately revolving riffs of "Carousel" than on the previous record, ...

After only a few hit projects establishing himself as one of the genre's most popular guitarists, it seems curious why Doc Powell would conceive and produce an all-star concept album like Double Scale rather than do another solo album which might further cement his stature.

This two-LP set is an unusual Chuck Mangione record. Taken from a marathon live concert, the flügelhornist is featured with a big band. The first album has fairly typical performances (including versions of "Legend of the One-Eyed Sailor" and "Hill Where the Lord Hides"), but it is the second half that is most notable. Mangione performs such ...
