This DRG new release
You Make Me Feel So Young was recorded June 17th [2011] live at Feinstein’s at the Loews Regency Hotel in New York near the end of a record breaking two week solo engagement. The new show and album included 13 songs that Barbara had never sung before, along with some familiar favorites. Critics called the show “brilliant,” and “flawless.” Barbara was comfortable, assured, and, oh yeah, brilliant. She went new places, including scatting and surprising jazz phrasing. This was Barbara’s first entry into jazz, ably assisted by Lee Musiker, her musical director and pianist. The band included Jay Leonhart on bass, Warren Odze on percussion and Steve Kenyon on woodwinds. Barbara Cook (83 years young) is nothing short of a miracle in music!
