Track:
I hoped that Rhapsody would list Helen's "Deep In A Dream" album so that I could speak on behalf of her performances of "Baltimore Oriole" and "The Winter of Our Discontent" there, which she performs with a band that includes trumpeter Thad Jones, guitarist Jim Hall, and bassist Ron Carter. Instead I get to Rhapsodize about this performance of "Here's That Rainy Day" from that album that found a home on this "When Love Goes Wrong" compilation. And I'm very willing, because she and pianist Dick Katz take their time and let you feel every phrase. Lady can break your heart and cause you to marvel at the beauty of her singing. This could happen to you even if all you get is the out-of-the-U.S. 30 second excerpt of the tune's beginning.
