This Rosemary Clooney recording differs from all of her previous Concord
albums in that she is joined by the L.A. Jazz Choir (a 12-voice group)
on half of the dozen selections. The choral backing is a bit of an
acquired taste for jazz listeners but Clooney's backup sextet does
consist of tenor saxophonist Scott Hamilton, trumpeter Jack Sheldon
(who helps out Clooney with his vocal on "People Will Say We're in
Love"), trombonist Chauncey Welsch, pianist John Oddo (who is responsible
for both the choral and instrumental arrangements), bassist John Clayton
and drummer Joe LaBarbera. Clooney interprets the music of Richard
Rodgers and lyrics which are split almost evenly between Lorenz Hart
and Oscar Hammerstein. Most of the tunes are fairly well-known (including
"It Might as Well Be Spring," "I Could Write
a Book," "You Took Advantage of Me" and
"My Romance") but Rosemary Clooney makes
them sound fresh and alive. --
