My Impetuous Heart Recorded September 1999.
The trio:

Hank Jones, piano.

Gary Mazzaroppi, bass.

Joe Cocuzzo, drums.

Guest artists: George Shearing, piano. Marian McPartland, piano. Bucky Pizzarelli, guitar.

From the liner notes by James Gavin:
"...VerPlanck's sunny voice is still as free and soaring as a bird. Her first album for DRG is another volume of superbly chosen songs, ranging all the way from a Billie Holiday torch ballad ('Travelin' Light') to a tongue-tripping piece of special material by Cahn and Van Heusen ('Love Won't Let You Get Away'). Arranger Billy VerPlanck, the singer's husband and musical partner for over forty years, knows how to show off her virtuosity as well as his own.
"What makes this album special to both of them is the presence of some remarkable guests. Hank Jones accompanied a teenage Marlene on her first album for Savoy in 1955; George Shearing, Marian McPartland and Bucky Pizzarelli have known and admired her for decades."
