Album Notes & Community Reviews

Collaborating with arranger Nelson Riddle, the iconic vocalist delivers a remarkably upbeat, relentlessly swinging collection of jazz-pop standards. The punchy big band orchestrations perfectly complement her typically understated, cool phrasing, pushing her into a more forceful, extroverted delivery. The release is widely celebrated as one of the most dynamic and joyous recordings of her career.
