sidewinder Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 A very interesting listen after reading the fascinating recent Dave Liebman interview describing the circumstances of this session. Quote
mikeweil Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) The Roulette CD reissue with 11 (!) bonus tracks. p.s. what she does with the tunes from the standard jazz song book is amazing, very different from the way jazz singers and instrumentalists approch these tunes. She was one of a kind. Edited October 7, 2017 by mikeweil Quote

mikeweil Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 Agreed - but Mrs. Phillips was a totally different type of singer that fit much better into the CTI sound. Got me Esther Phillips' two Atlantic albums last year and like them a lot. Now listening tp Hazel Scott: (from the Mingus Debut box set) Quote
