Accompanied by orchestras led chiefly by Camarata, both Southern records avoid her piano, differently from previous ones. But this changes nothing in her nuanced and controlled delivery. In often recorded songs (Little Girl Blue, Autumn In New York, Smoke Gets In You Eyes), and in seldom heard others (Give Me Time, Can I Forget You?, Speak Softly To Me) she delivers her intimate and elegant style. Quite heavenly to hear such music amidst the high-pitched hysterical kind of female voice that seems to be the 'today' style of singing!

This CD of Jeri Southern songs contains 24 tracks, some of which I knew I wanted and some of which I didn't know I wanted - but do now. Miss Southern sounds to me now as she did when I first heard her, a long, long time ago, but voices like hers are no less beautiful with the passing of time. No-one else sounds or sounded like Jeri, but then, no-one could. Anyone who's never heard Miss Southern might listen to her sing, say,'When I Fall In Love','I Thought Of You Last Night' or 'Smoke Gets in Your Eyes', from this CD. If, or when they do they'll know, or hear, what I am talking about. CDs can wear out, I know, and if this one ever does it will be replaced, as will the others, if ever needed.
