Lisa Hilton - Paradise Cove (2022)

I think we all need jazz in our lives these days," composer, pianist, bandleader and producer Lisa Hilton writes in the liner notes for Paradise Cove. "From it's inception ragtime, jazz and blues were created to boost moods or morale by America's earliest composers, such as Scott Joplin, Ferdinand "Jelly Roll" Morton or Nick La Rocca in the early 1900's. Our world today desires and deserves a lift after the last couple years, and with the music of Paradise Cove we aim to boost spirits everywhere.
