If you think you've heard these songs before, think again!
"Let's Fall in Love" is a brilliant entr e into the solo recording world for Rachel York. This beautiful and jazzy retro CD is a real breakout for the gifted Broadway, film and television actress/singer. Known for her stage roles Norma Cassidy in "Victor/Victoria" and Lili Vanessi in "Kiss Me, Kate," as well as playing Lucille Ball in the CBS biopic "Lucy," Rachel sets herself free on this CD, singing from her own heart, without character restraints. A score of wonderful standard tunes shows off her magnificent, pure, silky-smooth and richly textured voice that has hints of Ella Fitzgerald, Rosemary Clooney, Peggy Lee, and Barbra Streisand in it. Yet Rachel interprets a song like no other performer I've ever heard. Every time you listen to her sing, it's like hearing a song for the first time. She adds unexpected twists of emotion to her vocals that bring new meaning to old standards. She has a distinct, deliciously sultry, honest and uninhibited quality that is absolutely penetrating. On this CD Rachel York has brought back the Big Band sound with her own special contemporary flair. There's humor in "My House," sass in "Let's Do It," longing in "My Funny Valentine," seduction in "Sooner or Later," and love in every single note. If you don't melt when you hear this incredibly talented woman sing, you need serious medical attention. She's amazing. The orchestra backing her really swings, too! "Let's Fall in Love" will leave you breathless.
