It is always such a joy to listen to the tones of Scottish icon Eddi Reader. The singer has such exquisite sensibilities and respectfully memorialises standards such as this one, as well as her original compositions and collaborations. The mark of a great singer is the ability to cover a song like 'Moon River', one of the most recorded tunes in history, and still make it her own. Now more than half a century old, the Henry Mancini classic penned for the Audrey Hepburn movie 'Breakfast at Tiffanys', is in truly safe hands with Ms Reader. It is delivered with such intimacy but at the same time, potency and soul.
