MARY STALLINGS: Don’t Look Back HighNote, 2012 VOCAL JAZZ – San Francisco native Mary Stallings proves – again – that she’s one of the best jazz singers around. A first-call trio backs her up as she alternates tender ballads and midtempo numbers with a warm voice, impeccable delivery and gorgeous pacing. Right on, Mary. All great! Fo’s Picks: 1, 3, 4, 7, 9, 11 1. 3:59 – midtempo standard sway, piano has uptown elegance 2. 6:09 – slow romantic ballad: she drags out the syllables in a delicious ache 3. 4:23 – oh yeah… after-hours blues, just voice & piano… perfection! 4. 6:04 – dark ballad medley: slow and gentle with just enough heartache 5. 3:51 – gently waltzing tune: vocals dance over sweet trio 6. 6:06 – torch ballad, careful pacing and some really nice vocal slides 7. 5:02 – Tin-Pan Alley blues: great old-fashioned sound… tell it! 8. 3:17 – slow ballad, beautifully done, short and sweet with no drums 9. 4:34 – Betty Carter ballad, just elastic vocal & rich piano 10. 5:28 – very slow ballad; voice & piano reach into the darkness 11. 4:34 – relaxed, straight-up blues; piano & vocal are very nice indeed 12. 5:55 – slow-drag ballad, hushed and romantic with a bit of loneliness [ Fo ] - May 2012 | ||
