3.5 Stars - Very Good - ...The album's star is octogenarian Larry Adler....With its nuances and gritty pathos, Adler's playing emphasizes the folksy but haunted sense of Americana that runs through most of Gershwin's music...

If you love Gershwin you'll love this. The most unexpected people singing some glorious songs, I love Meatloaf, but never thought I would hear my favourite singer singing my favourite composer. Sinead O'Connor, Elvis Costello the list goes on. The songs are classics & the singers do them justice. If you don't have any Gershwin CDs get this one.
