Chicago native and classically trained pianist Patricia Barber's sixth album is a collection of down-tempo standards an constitutes the perfect accompaniment to a rainy day. Taking on classics like 'Autumn Leaves,' 'I Fall in Love Too Easily,' 'Bye Bye Blackbird,' or even 'Alfie' is always a risk, but her confident vocals and bold interpretations eradicate any doubt regarding her mastery.
