On the heels of her superb Depression-themed album Pentimento, Jessica Molaskey turned her sights to jazz of the 1950s and with her second album, A Good Day. Originally released in 2003, A Good Day takes off from the songs and stylings of Peggy Lee and her own guitarist husband Dave Barbour. A combination of jazz standards, show tunes, and Molaskey-Pizzarelli originals, the album was inspired out of a small stack of records neatly arranged beside the family hi-fi when Molaskey was growing up. The core group of musicians who backed her on Pentimento return here, supplemented by larger forces orchestrated by Don Sebesky and Dick Lieb.
