This is a great cd that you can play anytime, anywhere. A superb collection of songs sung with great style by Rosemary Clooney. I have this playing in my car often. It transports you from the tedious commute to a quiet club where you are treated to an exclusive performance by one of the greatest interpreters of the great American songbook. Great singer, great songs...what more can you ask for?

I'm proud to say that i have most of Rosies' cds. This perhaps, is not one of her better offerings. It seems that Rosie chose to use a lot of lesser known songs that are out of favor with a lot of the music world. On the well known songs Rosie did a superb job. John Oddo, her musical director, did another super job of arranging. Just maybe one of these days Rosie will break through and sing the songs we are really looking for.

No one interprets a song like Rosemary! She's in a class of her own and shows it in this album. I have just seen her in Concert and was literally moved to tears. Treasure this album and all the rest, for she is one of a very few artists left to make us feel the song and understand the true meaning of the lyrics. I have nearly ALL of her CDs and as long as she records, I will be there to buy, collect,enjoy and savor her beautiful voice!

This collection, out of the number of Rosie CDs I own, is by far the best (although all the others are wonderful, too). I never heard 'Wave' performed so well that I really liked it. A lot! The others, like 'Nice 'N Easy' and 'Straighten' Up and Fly Right' really hit the spot. Rosie is a true cabaret performer that never lets maudlin sentimentality get in the way of her delivery of her songs. She makes you want to hang out with her over a few cocktails and [talk] about anything that comes to mind.

excellent lyric interpreter, has good timing, phrases skillfully
