REVIEWS OF "THE MELODY LINGERS ON":
Francis Davis - SOUND AND VISION
I'm going to insist you hear this because: (1) accompanied by a rhythm section led by the attentive pianist McAfee, Lea -- the logical successor to Mabel Mercer as Queen Mother of cabaret -- turns in definitive interpretations of 20 great songs familiar and obscure... (2) this is the only place to find the slowed-down, heartbreaking "Begin the Beguine" that has been a centerpiece of her shows for the past decade..."
Alan Bargebuhr - CADENCE
...the more familiar standards should not be overlooked because Barbara is very apt to illuminate them anew... This is cabaret music with subtle jazz touches; an absolute honey of a CD.
Max Preeo - SHOW MUSIC
Nothing could be more welcome than a new release from Barbara Lea, a great singer who hasn't cracked mainstream audiences but delights those fortunate to catch her in cabaret and jazz clubs... She's a song's friend.
