Joni herself contributes copious quotes to the notes and the foreword is by longtime Joni admirer Barbara Streisand.
Joni was lucky to have the songwriters and arrangers she did to work on those forgotten treaures; but as time went on, her voice and song quality faltered.
Joni James' M-G-M Records singles are unlike anything any other singer ever did, from the songs she searched out and selected, to the magnificent and amazingly complicated and detailed orchestrations, to her own vocals which, in an era of Doris Days were much closer to a Sarah Vaughan.

In the midst of one of the most remarkable renaissances in the history of the music field, Joni James is enjoying new acclaim, winning new fans and delighting longtime admirers with standing-room-only concert appearances and compact disc and tape reissues of her legendary record albums stunningly remastered in digital stereo sound under her personal supervision.
And Joni's record has swiftly moved beyond the nostalgic reappearance of a long-beloved musical friend to the reemergence of an artist with new musical interests and offerings--definitely a lady of the `90s even though she first gained international fame in the 1950s...and a lady eagerly anticipating the coming of the new century.
Joni's concerts mix her trademark multimillion-selling hits with most-requested selections from her more than three dozen hit albums, new music from the cream of today's composers and many surprises.

 The Music of Joni James
Joni James over her years at M-G-M Records built hit by hit a remarkable library of multimillion-selling recordings.
Her achievements are all the more remarkable because, almost alone among artists of her prominence, she sought and selected all the songs she recorded.
And Joni seldom recorded so-called "followups," songs intended to echo a just-scored hit in hopes of scoring another best-seller.

 VH1.com : Joni James : Biography
Pop songstress Joni James was born Giovanna Carmella Babbo in Chicago on September 22, 1930.
A fill-in gig at an Indiana roadhouse convinced James to pursue a career as a singer, and while appearing in a TV commercial she was spotted by executives at MGM, signing to the label in 1952.
In 1964, she retired from music to tend to her ailing husband, musical director Anthony Acquaviva, and spent the next three decades essentially removed from the public eye; finally, during the mid-'90s she returned to touring while also supervising the re-release of her classic MGM recordings.

 jmdl LIBRARY: Grown-up James, Adult Joni: Newsweek, November 4, 1985
The next time you're tempted to forget that the years are rushing by, focus your reading glasses on this: James Taylor is 37, and Joni Mitchell is 42.
The same move away from songs about heartbreak marks the new James Taylor, although his record is much less hamfisted about it.
Reported to be happily involved with actress Kathryn Walker and free of the drug and alcohol habit that dogged him through much of his career - his "present addiction," he says, is aerobic exercise - Taylor seems fit and relaxed, and his new album reflects it.

 Medialunchbox - Music : My Favorite Things/Joni James Sings the Gershwins   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The Gershwin album is particularly a favorite among Joni’s fans…both feature the Paul Smith Quintet’s deliciously jazzy accompaniment.
Joni James excells in this pleasant two-fer that finds her singing Broadway classics and from the Gershwin songbook.
The arranging and accompaniment work on both albums is superb, though pianist/arranger Paul Smith (on both albums) can, at the keyboard, sound as showy as Liberace, which detracts from these jazz-infused renditions.
