Music reviews of A Woman Alone with the Blues (Remembering Peggy Lee)
Music Review: She Does Peggy Lee Better Than Peggy Lee (to me)
Rating: 5 Stars
My dad really loved Peggy Lee, so I grew up hearing a lot of her songs. I kind of liked a few of her songs but there was something sort of monotone to me about the way she sang that failed to inspire.
I was actually nervous about buying this CD, afraid I would not like it very much. Boy, was I wrong. Maria pumps new life into these songs with a sauciness and bawdiness all her own that livens things up "just right."
Maria done good on this one - two thumbs up!
Description of A Woman Alone with the Blues (Remembering Peggy Lee)
From her beginnings in the sixties folk music scene in Boston, Maria Muldaur has continued to explore a range of American musics, first with the Jim Kweskin Jug Band, followed by a pair of albums with then-husband Geoff Muldaur. The '70s brought her commercial success with the release of her debut solo album and the single "Midnight at the Oasis." The '80s found her recording sets devoted to jazz, gospel, and swing, while the '90s albums celebrated her love of New Orleans and blues. A Woman Alone With the Blues is devoted to 12 songs associated with Peggy Lee. From the slow burn of "Fever" to the swinging "Everything Is Moving Too Fast," this is a well-paced set with Muldaur backed by a supple eight-piece combo. Dan Hicks guests on "Winter Weather," trading verses with Muldaur over a snappy big band arrangement. Lee's career drew from a sufficiently diverse and uniformly potent range of songwriters (Ellington, Arlen, Berlin, Leiber & Stoller, etc.) and this album is likewise rich in its breadth. --David GreenbergerGeneral CDs
