Album number four from singer Laura Zakian is part homage to Frank Sinatra's classic 1956 album Songs for Swinging Lovers, with seven of the album's tracks featured here, and part homage to more contemporary love songs that the singer grew up with. It's a personal mixtape that not only showcases the singer's beguiling timbre, but also her command of mood and pacing. The album also serves as a tribute to arranger, composer and pianist Pete Saberton, who sadly passed away shortly after penning more than half of the sparkling album arrangements. Zakian immediately taps into her characteristic warmth and intimacy on album opener, Elvis Costello and Cait O'Riordan's ‘Baby Plays Around’. The first of the seven Sinatra interpretations, a swinging ‘Our Love Is Here To Stay’ features one of several fine solos by pianist Steve Lodder. Underpinned by Paul Bartholomew's perky bari sax, Sam Brown's hit ‘Stop’ is transplanted to Cuba in a sunny latin reworking. Other highlights include a quietly dramatic ‘I Thought About You’ and ‘Anything Goes’ in which Lodder's arrangement channels his best New Orleans manner.
