Description British jazz vocalist Cleo Laine brings her signature phrasing and emotional depth to A Beautiful Thing, a 1974 release that blends Broadway standards, contemporary ballads, and original compositions. Known for her impeccable diction and dramatic delivery, Laine interprets works by Gershwin, Sondheim, Buffy Sainte-Marie, and Michel Legrand with elegance and nuance.

Produced by Mike Berniker and arranged by John Dankworth, the album showcases Laine’s versatility across genres, from torch songs to modern jazz-inflected pop. Released by RCA Victor Canada, this pressing features the “dynaflex” lightweight vinyl format popular in the 1970s.
