Guitars alà Lee Review by Dave Nathan
...Working with seven guitars, woodwinds, strings, bass, drums, and, on some cuts, a big band, all unidentified, Lee is asked to work with a set of pop tunes..It's neither the fault of Peggy Lee, who is in excellent form, nor arrangers Dave Grusin, Bob Bain, Billy May, and Dick Hazard who prepared the charts for the tunes. It's just that the material they had to work with was wanting, at least compared to many of Lee's other albums. ... The result is not a total loss by any means. "Nice 'n' Easy" is an effervescent swinger. For "Good Times," Lee turns on the blues faucet, and May's "Call Me" sizzles. On this the album's last cut, the guitars are put away and Lee is backed by a typical May big band. It's just that the listener has put up with less than satisfactory material to get to these gems.
