The Las album is always awesome when I listen to it, which I don't do enough. I was not taken in by the new RLJ, any more than her other albums of covers. But I have been working my way through Joni Mitchell and just got to Both Sides Now, which is such a GREAT album of standards and a wonderful capper to her career. The arrangements are so wonderful and dark and moody, I always think of Gordon Jenkins, which makes sense since he's actually the arranger on Stormy Weather and clearly an inspiration.
I like most of RLJ's covers records. "The Devil You Know" is the only one that felt like an intrusion. I only listened once to "Pieces Of Treasure" but I really enjoyed it. I loved the arrangements of "Nature Boy," "September Song" and "Here's That Rainy Day" especially.
