"A Woman's Intuition and It's a Most Unusual Day are highlights of the 12 songs on the released album, but they're all great. I have a cassette with all 12 songs and 4 more that were recorded for the album but not included on the LP or the CD. They are Sing a Rainbow, Brooklyn Love Song, What's it Like in Paris and a medley of Time Was/It's So Peaceful. Someone wrote that this is the album to have if you have just one Kenney album. I wouldn't say so. Born to be Blue, Come Swing with Me, the Johnny Smith album - they're all must have's. This album is worthy of a reissue with all 16 tracks, especially since not even the 12 track version is available these days. Sad that she left us so soon. Sad for her and sad that she could have left the world with so much more wonderful music. Also sad that even many jazz buffs have never heard of her. She was truly one of a kind and so good.
