Editorial Reviews

Bernadette Peters has earned her distinction through hard work, sparkling talent, and a dizzying range of roles, yet one never feels she's "stretching out" beyond her abilities. This Grammy-nominated album from 1996 saw Peters strutting her tough kewpie-doll charm on everything from Elton John and Lyle Lovett, to (her favorite) Stephen Sondheim and Rodgers & Hammerstein. As a "pop" artist, Peters finds the soul of showmanship in even a wistful number like the Dylan song of the album title (a much less coy version than Maria Muldaur's with the Jim Kweskin Jug Band). For Bernadette Peters, personality is the liquor that drives an intoxicating performance. --Stephen M.H. Braitman

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb!, April 20, 2001

By	Thomas C. Nagy "Music Teacher" (Ebensburg, PA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is artistry at its best. Bernadette has entertained in as many venues as any artist, and is wildly successful at all of them!! This release shows off her versatility in a huge variety of musical styles. Memorable tracks are "Cupid", "No One Is Alone", "He's Got A Way" and "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight." In this release, Bernie is sultry, sweet, melancholy and flirtatious. 5 stars +++++++!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Hot Love - anytime she wants!, May 16, 2005

By	rash67 (USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

By far the most entertaining album that Bernadette Peters has ever done.
Love in various guises.

The title track, "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight" is so hot, you're going to blow your...um..top. This is the definitive version of this song, better than the Dylan original. or anyone elses.

I hadn't heard this album for years and it's much better than I remember.

Funny.

From the opening "I Feel like I'm Not out of Bed yet", "I Make him Feel Good" thru "Woman Be Wise" /(Don't advertise your Man) (By Sippie Wallace), "I'll be Your Baby Tonight" there is a lot of music for the Second Chakra here. Bluesy. Earthy.

But also Fourth chakra: "No One is Alone". "Running on Faith", "What's the use of Wondering" display her command of the show type tunes she is normally associated with.

Spectacular vocal range. Expressive. and the hot tuba solos are just the right touch.

What a Sweetie Pie! She can sure be my baby anytime she wants. Pure HOT Love.
