Title: A Fan in San Francisco
Product review: Miss Peters is best when heard in person, either in concert or a stage performance. That said, this album is the next best thing since she sings live, as the orchestra plays, giving each song a spark and a vibrancy that is absent in many recordings. I was sold on this album even before I heard it because the orchestrations were arranged and conducted by Jonathan Tunick, who I first became familiar with via one of my all-time favorite albums (Cleo [Laine] Sings Sondheim). There is depth and clarity and layers of sounds in every song, to which Miss Peters then adds herself. I agree with another reviewer who said that the up-tempo songs are best -- Miss Peters is GREAT with a quick lyric -- but every song on this CD is reinterpreted beautifully. I recommend it highly -- there's nothin' like a dame, after all.
