[.ca] My Gentleman Friend

Finally! Another Long Vaulted Treasure Re-Emerges:
This is one of the last two Verve recordings by Blossom Dearie that have been lanquishing in the Verve vaults for way too long, and it's so good to see that it is once again available!! This is the most intimate album that Blossom recorded during her Verve years. The stand-out track on the recording is definitely 'Someone to Watch Over Me' which Blossom approaches as if she is writing the very words into her diary or whispering them into a prayer locket. Other outstanding songs are 'You Fascinate Me So', 'It's Too Good to Talk About Now', and 'You've Got Something I Want'. Now the good people at Verve need only release "Soubrette Sings Hit Broadway Songs" (and any miscellaneous alternate takes and studio chatter they might have lying around in the vaults) and Ms. Blossom's Verve years will all be available.
