Decca Reviewed 2007-08-27 | ||
How do you review a legend? This selection of previously unreleased love songs from the ‘70s (one track from the early ‘80s) shows why she’s the undisputed queen of jazz vocalists. Every note is pitch-perfect and whisky-smooth, her style is impeccable, and it’s all worth at least three stars. Miss Ella, we love you right back. 1. Swinging & swaying w/a little help from Count Basie. 2. Symphonic, lush slow and heartbreaking. Full of warm emotion. 3. Midtempo sway with a tight, small combo sound. Delicious. 4. Downtempo and lazy like a hot day. Oh what she does w/that voice! 5. Midtempo and swinging w/a small club sound. Great piano too. 6. Slow and stylish w/a rich, symphonic backing. Sigh…. 7. Midtempo duet for Ella & Joe Pass on guitar. Delicious & light. 8. Slow and sooooo smooth. Guitar & orchestra backing. Yummy. 9. Sweet classic w/a light touch. Relaxed w/great piano. So good! 10. Gentle horns escort this lazy romantic slow dance. Warm, sweet. |
