For Those Who Think Young is divided into two halves, with one side each of
studio big-band recordings and similar live recordings made in 1961. Sommers
begins with A Lot of Livin to Do from Bye Bye Birdie (her version of One Boy
from the same musical was her first charting hit) and covers a dozen standards
and show tunes such as Round Midnight, Blues in the Night, and I Feel Pretty.
The live tracks are beautifully recorded and the performances accomplished (if a
little cutesy at times), but this adult-oriented vocal music is far removed from
Johnny Get Angry, the teen hit with which she is most strongly associated. For
Those Who Think Young didnt chart and produced no hits, but it does reveal, in a
serious context, the capabilities of an artist often considered a female teen
idol.
