Lee Wiley was still in prime form during the 1950s, although she was
disappointed that she did not become a major commercial success. On this
LP (all but two cuts have since been reissued on CD), Wiley is joined
by three different orchestras arranged by Ralph Burns. Her renditions of
"You're a Sweetheart," "Who Can I Turn to Now," "Can't Get Out of This
Mood," "East of the Sun," and "Moonstruck" are particularly memorable.
Despite the passing of time, Wiley's voice was still sensuous and
haunting, lightly swinging and full of subtlety. With trumpeter Nick
Travis, trombonist Urbie Green, trumpeter Billy Butterfield, trombonist
Lou McGarity, and clarinetist Peanuts Hucko helping out with a few short
solos, Wiley sounds inspired throughout this memorable set. by Scott Yanow
