Reviewed: 2018-03-17
Genre: Jazz
FCCs: none
Review: Chicago pianist Night’s debut is delightful, an accessible and charming album that highlights her elegant style, it features her with her working group for an intimate program of seven seldom-played covers, from Simon & Garfunkle to King Crimson, and one of her composition.
