Chris Connor is not as well recognized as some other jazz vocalists, for example, June Christy. Connor is every bid as talented and a pleasure to listen to. So nice to hear songs that are REAL music and not a bunch of rapidly spoken words that make no sense. Great dealer who went out of the way to ship quickly. All round good experience.
Review by Scott Yanow
Most of this highly recommended set is taken from a series of 1957 sessions in which singer Chris Connor exclusively interprets songs of George Gershwin. To fill out the CDs, additional Gershwin cuts from other, otherwise unrelated dates by the vocalist have been added. Connor's cool delivery gives many of the largely familiar songs new life. She is assisted by such fine musicians as trumpeter Joe Newman, tenorman Al Cohn, flutist Herbie Mann, vibraphonist Milt Jackson and pianist Ralph Sharon, who add tasteful and concise solos. Many of the selections were quite rare before this well-conceived and appealing reissue was put together.
