LENA HORNE WITH LENNIE HAYTON'S ORCHESTRA — Stormy Weather (1957-2002) RM | Bluebird First Editions Series | FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

This LP features a fine sampling of the type of material that Lena Horne performed in the 1950s. Backed by an orchestra arranged and conducted by her husband Lennie Hayton, Horne digs into such tunes as "Mad About the Boy," "Stormy Weather," "Any Place I Hang My Hat Is Home," and "Just One of Those Things." The music swings but is middle-of-the-road pop rather than jazz. However, Lena Horne is heard throughout in top form, and this set is easily recommended to her fans. Scott Yanow
