The music of "Ally McBeal" - jazzboCR - 02-05-2015
Talk about being late to the party--I'm just watching 1st time this late-'90's series. I see why it lasted awhile. For me, a large part of it is the music. The producer David Kelly had the good sense and good taste to hire Vonda [SIZE=3]Shepard[/SIZE] to do a lot of the music...and it all stands up today. This is Par-Tay music--turn it up and get ready to rock. Would I lie to you?
Some tunes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74JNJ86M4vw << Beautiful clear voice with just that mere touch of emotionalism.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQsBZwSAf2s << Tell you straight up--I'd love to have these as just backing tracks--you'd kill at karaoke.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsbHXJxzMP8 << A blue-eyed-soul heroine for sure.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzxU-9_uWJo << Does wondrous things with this soppy song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqmuhXPPaSw << Songs don't get more personal than this...yet she covers it extremely well.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPiPnrx6pZc << They go into and expose the heart of this song.
NOTE: This is the most fun I've had all week...because it was so unexpectedly excellent. Everything she sings is a gem. I played every song at least twice...and have skin in the game.
NOTE: Folks have put up 25-40+ song soundtracks of this series. Check'm out on YT

Just came across this concert Ms. Shepard did in Germany--her material--about 2 hours--pretty good on the keys and song-writing but it's The Voice....: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryAetAJFFHc Her Site: http://vondashepard.com/
NOTE: She toured with Al Jarreau in the '80's... keys and B/U singing.
