Named after the 1934
Ray Noble-penned standard made famous by
Bing Crosby,
The Very Thought of You is the sixth studio album from Canadian jazz vocalist
Emilie-Claire Barlow. Released in 2007, it features silky-smooth renditions of
Nat King Cole's "Almost Like Being in Love,"
Billie Holiday 's "What a Little Moonlight Can Do," and
Mama Cass' "Dream a Little Dream of Me" alongside interpretations of hits from various musicals including Guys and Dolls, Oklahoma!, and Pennies from Heaven. ~ Jon O'Brien
