Posted 2008-06-19 18:51:18: Amazon.com: In between making her name with husband Frank Wildhorn's Jekyll & Hyde and becoming a Rosie O'Donnell favorite, Linda Eder released her second solo album, And So Much More, in 1994. Her strong, rich voice lends itself well to Wildhorn's power pop, including the bluesy opener "I Don't Remember," the lovely title track, the swinging "Til You Come Back to Me" and "Is This Any Way to Fall in Love," and "I'll Forget You" from The Scarlet Pimpernel. Relying less heavily on Wildhorn numbers than she has on some of her later albums, Eder covers "All the Way," Leslie Bricusse's "When I Look in Your Eyes," Charlie Chaplin's "Smile," and the powerful closer "Bridge Over Troubled Water." Eder also begins her tradition of including a Harold Arlen number, here "The Man That Got Away"--a nod to Judy Garland yet also distinctive in an arrangement that makes time stand still. Michael Feinstein joins her for a duet on "Someone," which they performed on their joint national tour in summer 2000. --David Horiuchi
