For music fans who love how the likes of Sinatra, Darin, Bennett and Torme interpreted the glorious lyrics and melodies of Gershwin and Porter, the recent renewal of interest in popular standards is a blessing. But can today’s young pop and jazz darlings really do justice to The Great American Songbook?

After all, the twenty-something budding stars on the contemporary pop music scene, haven’t lived long enough to invest real meaning into the standards they’re singing. They haven’t tasted enough wine, sipped enough Scotch, or breathed in enough air from smoke-filled lounges to have that special timber in their voice...They haven’t broken enough hearts....or had their hearts broken enough times to be able to warble about a lost love and really mean it.

Enter Ron Gartner, textile salesman turned crooner, who began his run at a career as an entertainer just over three years ago and is now performing all over the United States. It appears that the 30+ audience, an underserved market, according to Billboard (4/26/03), is enjoying both his music and the interesting story of a businessman-turned-singer at this stage in life.

The title song of the CD, "Someone Like You", is a sleeper tune from the Broadway musical, Jekyll and Hyde, written by Frank Wildhorn, with lyrics by Leslie Bricusse. It is a power-ballad that is resonating with an adult crowd, especially women. The other twelve tunes are updated versions of some timeless classics not heard in a while.
