I was fortunate to see Ms. Lettau in concert earlier this year and get a preview of many of these songs. And although everybody seems to be recording songs from The Great American Songbook these days, this is a worthwhile collection to get for both fans of these songs and of Ms. Lettau. Not as experimental as some of her previous collections, she puts her own mark on these songs, as on the upbeat "Bye Bye Blackbird", where she adds some great scat singing. Her accompaniment varies from a string orchestra to a jazz combo to a single instrument. On a great verson of "It's Delovely" she is only accompanied by a bass player, and that's all she needs. Her one offbeat selection here is "(It's not Easy) Being Green" from Sesame Street, and she makes it fit right in.
