Music Makers (Owl Records-Serie)

Description
This reissue of a 1986 studio session features the amazing voice of the jazz singer Helen Merrill with keyboardist Gordon Beck. Accompanying them on six tracks apiece are soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy and violinist Stephane Grappelli. Most of the selections are standards (exceptions being Merrill's "Music Makers" and Beck's "And Still She Is With Me"), but all of the songs sound completely fresh, partly due to the unusual instrumentation and also because of the players' inventiveness. Highlights include "'Round Midnight" and "When Lights Are Low" (both of which include Lacy) and "A Girl In Calico" and "Lady Be Good" with Grappelli. Recorded 1986 Personnel: Helen Merrill - vocals, Stephane Grappelli - violin, Steve Lacy - soprano saxophone, Gordon Beck - piano electric, piano.
