3 out of 5 stars Unfortunate pairing mars Jones's stylish outing.......2003-05-28

Collectors Choice Music should be congratulated for reissuing these Joni James treasures. Listeners can realize what a gifted vocalist James was, especially when she performed in the jazz setting. But this twofer presents such an unfortunate pairing that it mars Jones otherwise esteemable performance. In the first album, James is backed by plucking banjos and a Dixieland band for workmanlike reworkings of I'm Looking over a Four-Leaf Clover and Hello Dolly. The second album offers James a superb arrangement and backing by "West Coast musicians" who offer Jones a backdrop of dramatic bass, jazz-inspired drums and piano. These tracks are a delight, especially You Came A Long Way From St. Louis, Lullaby of Birdland and By the Way. Listening to this CD is jarring when one goes from Swanee and its dixieland arrangement to the jazzier feel of Fly Me to the Moon.
