Vocalist Barbara Lea (1929 – 2011) was a widely respected and admired interpreter of classic American popular song. She started her career in the 1950s, and the Downbeat Critic's Poll of 1956 recognized her as "Best New Singer." On this 1999 Piano Jazz, she joins McPartland for a tribute to songwriter Hoagy Carmichael. The conservator of Carmichael's repertoire, Lea brings her skill to selections including "Lazybones" and "Star Dust."
