The title track here--a certifiable vocal jazz classic which finds Nancy Wilson unfurling the narrative of Grand and Boyd's composition with exquisite sensitivity and heartbreaking nuance--is alone worth the price of the album. But with songs like "When Sunny Gets Blue" and the conversational, melancholic "You Can Have Him," the rest of the collection is a winner from start to finish. Wilson is backed by combos (which feature musicians like George Shearing, Cannonball Adderley, and Joe Zawinul) and orchestras (arranged and conducted by the likes of Oliver Nelson and Billy May), but it is her voice and her peerless delivery that captivate and thrill.
