The Very Best of Jane Monheit
Aside from having possibly the most flattering cover photography in jazz history, The Very Best of Jane Monheit, isn't exactly groundbreaking, but it is an enjoyable collection for those who like vocal jazz. Among the best tracks are "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most," which paradoxically is perfect for a melancholy autumn afternoon, "Hit the Road to Dreamland," and Cole Porter's "In the Still of the Night." Her previously unreleased versions of "I Wish You Love," and "The Folks Who Live on the Hill," are also nicely done, and the latter is different enough from (similar artist) Diana Krall's rendition (Only Trust Your Heart) to make it worthwhile for Monheit's loyal fans. Musically, this disc probably won't expand Monheit's fan base much, though visually, it should prove popular with men 18 to 35. --Leah Weathersby
