A sad loss to American Music. He produced many of the Manhattan Transfer albums---each new one taking of a new, and welcome, hue to their magnificent music color palette. His style and musical ear will delight and inspire generation to come.
He was truly "the Boss with the Sauce!"
RIP, Mr. Hauser
from Portland, Maine

"Mecca For Moderns" by the Transfer has always been a favorite LP of mine. I highly recommend it, Side 2 especially. Impeccable performances.

He sounds so young. I was really sad when I heard Tim had passed away. Manhattan Transfer have a fantastic sound.

Stylist or jazz singer? Listen to Sinatra do six versions of "Night and Day." Each is different from the others and unique, yet "The Voice" (Sinatra's moniker in the '40s) and "Master Storyteller" (his title in the '50s) inhabits and possesses the song as though he wrote it. In fact, he deserves the most credit for creating the Great American Songbook. Make no mistake: Sinatra was a jazz singer. No one swung harder, mastered musical diction and phrased with the elocution of Ole Blue. Even I can "scat" (try it--it's a no brainer). But I can't sing like Sinatra.

OH PLEASE!!!! LIKE Sinatra did not steal from black singers?? They all did. Boy bye.
