Every indication points to beaucoup biz, and that confines will be strained to the utmost in providing enough tables for the customer stampede. Miss Horne never displayed her artistry more eloquently than on this stand. She has great eloquence in the smallest gestures, turn of a lyrical phrase, or slight musical nuance. Beginning with wit in( "It'll Come To You," she brings up the libido during "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered," spice in "I Want To Be Evil," fury for "Love," capricious humor in "Consequence," a saucy "Lady Is a Tramp," earthy sexiness in "I Love To Love," and finally "Stormy Weather" for an ovation. Jjgpnnie Hayton batons the Ray Sinatra crew in his ultra arrangements, plus sliding onto the Steinway bench for deft backgroundings of "Bewitched." Excellent rhythmic assists come from Miss Home's touring backstopping comb o?╟÷ Chico Hamilton, drums; Mrving- Joseph, 88; Wyatt Ruther, bass.

Charles Nelson warbles melodiously in production tunes, having cute Pam Garner as vis-a-vis. Ray Sinatra orch is a vital part of the click, measuring plenty of backgrounding and all of top calibre.
