    Equal parts good time and fresh, original takes on these classic tracks, the band offers a medley of styles that color these standards in a new light.

    Even if the whole affair is something of a lark, Norah's songbird stylings and The Willies' uncluttered arrangements send it skyward.

    Norah and fellow vocalist Richard Julian bring a warm, smoky charm to their harmonies, while lead guitarist Jim Campilongo stitches together songs.

    Problems arise with second vocalist Richard Julian, whose mild tenor is the musical equivalent of beige.
