The Mood Is Swinging! - Joni James

 

Cheek To Cheek

Joni James: The Mood Is Swinging!
Orchestra Conducted by Jimmie Haskell
Produced by Howard Scott
MGM Records E-2987
1961

From Billboard - December 4, 1961: Here's thrush Joni James in contrasting moods and either way the idea should appeal to her many fans. In the swinging package she has selected items like "Just In Time," "Ain't Misbehavin'," "Something's Gotta Give," etc., while the softer mood set highlights songs like "Star Eyes," "Time On My Hands" and "You Go To My Head." In both cases, the gal is supported by good size ensembles with Jimmie Haskell and Skip Martin doing the respective baton chores.
