You're Lookin' at Me (A Collection of Nat King Cole Songs)

Reception

Allmusic awarded the album four stars and reviewer Scott Yanow said that "Carmen McRae's tribute to Nat King Cole (which predated the late-'80s revival of Cole's music) has its strong and weak points. She wisely adds Cole's former guitarist John Collins to her regular trio and picked some fine material...However McRae's phrasing is much different than Cole's and why did she sing "Sweet Lorraine" without changing any of the words? Despite those reservations, this set has enough strong moments to justify its purchase".
