"This Magic Moment" was one of the biggest and best Drifters hits on which Ben E. King sang lead, making #16 in 1960. The late-1950s and early-1960s Drifters records were very innovative in being among the first pop-rock hits to creatively use string arrangements, and "This Magic Moment" was an outstanding example. That's apparent right from the instrumental intro, in which strings shiver up and down the scale in ghostly glissandos. It was a memorable enough device to be imitated by Phil Spector on his production of the Gene Pitney hit "Every Breath That I Take," and, much more obscurely, on Lee Hazlewood's mid-1960s solo recording "For One Moment." Like several early Drifters hits, particularly those written by the team of Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman, there's a faint Latin dance beat to the seductive swing of "This Magic Moment," like a rooftop moonlight tango in Spanish Harlem. The Spanish tinge, as Jelly Roll Morton might put it, surfaces particularly strongly at the end of the verses, in which the mood becomes hushed and a brief burst of minor-key, flamenco-like guitar is heard. Stan Applebaum's arrangement makes the strings sound as if they're dancing in counterpoint to the lovers in the song, and the Drifters' backup harmonies have a swaying quality that's quite similar to the one they used in their previous hit, "Dance with Me." It's effective how the rhythm slightly changes to become more staccato, and hence tenser and more dramatic, in the final section. Overall "This Magic Moment" effectively conveys the dreamy thrill of suave youngsters falling in love under ideal circumstances. It would be redone in smoother and Whiter fashion by Jay & the Americans a decade later, giving them a Top Ten hit in 1969. But stick with the original if you know what's good for you.

Reviews for "McBride Sisters' Black Girl Magic Red Blend: A Toast to Resilience and Success"

1. John - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the McBride Sisters Black Girl Magic Red Blend. I found it to be lacking in both flavor and complexity. The wine had a thin body and the taste was quite one-dimensional. I was hoping for a more robust and rich flavor profile, but this wine fell flat for me. I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a bold red blend.

2. Sarah - 3 stars - The McBride Sisters Black Girl Magic Red Blend didn't live up to the hype for me. While the label and branding were appealing, the actual wine didn't meet my expectations. I found it to be a bit too sweet for my taste, with hints of artificial fruit flavors. The wine lacked depth and complexity, making it a forgettable experience. I think there are better red blends out there for a similar price point.

3. Mark - 2 stars - I tried the McBride Sisters Black Girl Magic Red Blend and I must say I was underwhelmed. The wine had an overly acidic taste that overwhelmed any other flavors that might have been present. Additionally, the wine lacked balance and depth, leaving a bitter aftertaste. I was expecting more from a wine with such an intriguing name, but unfortunately, it fell short for me. I wouldn't purchase it again.

4. Emily - 1 star - I found the McBride Sisters Black Girl Magic Red Blend to be extremely disappointing. The wine lacked any distinct flavors or aromas, making it seem generic and boring. It had a watery consistency and a diluted taste that left me unimpressed. I regret purchasing this wine and would not recommend it to anyone looking for a quality red blend. Save your money and opt for something else.
