This album has got me dancing! I have listened to it non stop for the last few days since I bought it. It is infectious! I adore everything from the song selection, to the arrangements, the production, and of course the impeccable vocal stylings. It is always a treat to hear timeless American songs sung by one of the best voices of our time.
Rod brings a whole new element to these songs, his voice is so soulful that the lyrics take on a whole new meaning with his raw and raspy style. Traditionally these songs are sung very straight, boring almost. Rod lifts them, and adds so much more feeling! To me these are better than the originals! Moon River, just perfect in every way. I got chills when I first heard it. Love Me Or Leave Me is a refreshing song, so much fun, you can't help but dance when you hear it!
I own all five of the American Songbook albums, and I have to say this is my favorite.
