RAF Squadronaires and Todd Gordon: Evergreen
By Track review of "My Favorite Things""My Favorite Things" is the single chosen to promote the album, but in truth, any of the thirteen tracks would have done the job just as well. Gordon is joined by vocalist Erin Dickinsfounding member of The Manhattan Transfer and the two blend well in a swinging rendition of the 1959 hit by Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein. It's an enjoyable sampler, but the real treasures are to be found on the full CD, which shows off the RAFS at its rip-roaring best.
