Description
These are the first recordings of one of the greatest jazz singers of all time: Carmen McRae. On these distinctive Stardust/Bethlehem and Decca sessions, Carmen found the right space, freedom and apt accompaniment for her beautiful singing. Relaxed and unpretentious, she impresses with the freshness and clarity of her sound, the lucidity of her diction, the instrumentalized flow and logic of her phrasing, and her fine beat. On a first rate set worth hearing over and over again, all the musicians involved perform with taste and skill in a textbook example of the art of jazz singing.
