Following in the footsteps of Rod Stewart, who has enjoyed considerable success with his nostalgic forays into the world of pop songs from the early 20th century, Canadian singer Anne Murray contributes her own take on a variety of pop classics with 2005's ALL OF ME. (The album was originally released in Canada as I'LL BE SEEING YOU.)

Murray's classy, casual delivery is ideally suited to songs as varied as "Dream a Little Dream of Me" (made famous by the Mamas & the Papas), which gets a jazz-combo treatment, and Judy Garland's signature tune, "Over the Rainbow," with its ethereal strings/piano/clarinet arrangement. Murray's voice is reminiscent of Joni Mitchell at times, and her choice of material ranges from the beautifully evocative "Twilight Time" to the little-heard 1930s gem "My Buddy," which Murray poignantly dedicates to the memory of her friend, Cynthia McReynolds. The second disc of this double-CD set is a collection of Murray's own classics, with songs dating from 1973 to 1994, including "Snowbird" and "You Needed Me." Throughout this down-tempo and often touching release, Murray's stature as a peerless interpreter of light, country-tinged pop remains unmatched.
