This collection opens and closes with two of Nancy Wilson's signature songs. In between, she sings 12 more songs of lost love with poignancy and not a hint of melodrama. Drawn from 13 different albums spanning 1959 to '68, Wilson delivers one stunning performance after another with accompaniment by Cannonball Adderley, Oliver Nelson, Gerald Wilson, Jimmy Jones and Billy May among others.
