Here is what people are saying about the Music for a Bachelor's Den, Volume 4: Easy Rhythms for Your Cocktail Hour
1 Star Rating  "For Bachelors"2008-01-18

If you don't want to impress a woman, this CD is for you. Every woman who I have played it for laughs. It isn't romantic. It is jokey. Nice for a gathering of boys sipping martinis, but not for seduction. It is interesting, early electronic music, but it is not for the ladies. If you are a musical historian, you will enjoy this. If you want to set a mood for woo, keep this off your turntable.

Ran across this CD in a bargin bin and am I glad I grabbed it. It's my first foray into "lounge" and it is a great place to be. "Caravan" is my favorite cut on this album. Takes me back to the Sean Connery days of Bond and the Playboy Club I visited in Nassau. Definately a CD collection for the bunch of us who have been displaced by the recent music scene. Have committed to the rest of the collection and hope to not being disappointed. Also another one that is different genre but a great album is '101 strings' "A Night in the Tropics". I have the album looking for the CD.

The DCC discs just sound better. Under the direction of Steve Hoffman, this series uses consistently better tapes, and better mastering, with more of that "sounds like a good record, not a CD" quality that the music of this era needs!
 
4 Star Rating  "Good Effort, but no Ultra-Lounge!"2002-04-03
- Reviewed By moon_city
DCC has made a fair attempt to offer some swingin' music, although obviously following the lead of Capitol Records' far better series, "Ultra-Lounge". I have about four or five discs in DCC's set, including "Exotica" and both volumes of "Sex Kittens in Hi Fi". Overall, I give DCC a grade of C+, or at best a B- for the Bachelor's Den collection. This disc is a B-.

I have to say that the Mel Henke cuts lift this particular disc above the plain, workaday attempt to cash in on the retro Lounge craze. I'd never heard Henke's songs before, and they're a riot. It's always nice to hear "Caravan", and Ray Coniff offers his version here. "Music to Watch Girls By" with the Harmonicats is also featured. "Swamp-fire" is another good choice, as is "Jazz Pizzicato" and this version "I Get a Kick Out of You". The addition of cuts by Les Baxter and Julie London help round things out, although both are already on "Ultra-Lounge".

However, some cuts on this disc are just not swank. "Topless Dancers of Corfu" is just plain annoying. The music is more in the style of '70s electronica pop, which has no business in a Lounge, let alone your swingin' bachelor pad! And the version of "The Girl From Ipanema" on this disc makes me wish the "girl" would fly back there (wherever Ipanema is), never to return.

While not nearly as classy or wide-ranging as Capitol's "Ultra-Lounge" series, DCC does at least try to provide a swanky set of swingin' CDs with their "Music for a Bachelor's Den" collection. This disc is a pretty good one, with a good selection and competent liner notes.

 
5 Star Rating  "Lounge music at its sauciest and its goofiest"1998-08-07
- Reviewed By weinerdr
This CD is an excellent example of "Lounge Music," a genre I only recently got into. The tracks are very pleasantly varied; there is something for every taste (among those who can dig this sort of music). The standout tracks, I feel, are the two "PLAYBOY-esque" songs by Mel Henke ("The Lively Ones" and "The Twisters"), a jazzed-up version of Leroy Anderson's "Jazz Pizzacato," and a big-band, no-frills version of "Caravan." P.S.: If you gritted your teeth when I used the phrase "dig this sort of music," then Lounge Music is not your cup of expresso!
