"Once again the fans have spoken, as this was funded in part via Kickstarter. This swinging New York thrush has stacked the deck with a load of great players whose resumés speak for themselves, making this a full-bodied jazz vocal date, with a taste for the past. The gang is all having a great time, whether vamping on Sinatra swing or Hot Club antics. Each cut is a winner, and jazz vocal fans are in for a first-class treat here. Check it out as the legend grows." - Chris Spector, The Midwest Record

"It gets five stars for Molly's vocals and her interpretations of these great standards. The band backing her is superb and the scope of solos utilizing trombone, trumpet, etc. makes her CD really stand out with these fabulous arrangements. Each song stands on its own merits with these players. And the lead-off tune is a discovery for me. When I hear something I'm not familiar with, it's like breaking a new frontier in the music world. I also like the liner notes. Molly is one great performer. "Let's Fly Away" is a winner all the way!" - Jim Stone, "Big Band Swing", 89.7-FM WLNZ
