I Know You By Heart
With a lovely tenor that might remind you ofMichael Ballwithout the angst, cabaret veteran Lee Lessack fills his second solo album with romantic ballads from contemporary songwriters.  "Dreamers" was written by Marvin Hamlisch for the quickly defunct showJean Seberg, while Frank Wildhorn's "Storybook" is from the slightly more successfulScarlet Pimpernel. Other gems include John Bucchino's "It Feels Like Home," Jimmy Webb's "The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress,"Stephen Schwartz's "Dreamscape,"Ann Hampton Callaway's "Perfect," and "Endless Night" fromThe Lion King.  Turn on this gentle collection and start dreaming.--David Horiuchi
