Album Notes & Community Reviews
An inspired pairing that brings sophisticated vocal phrasing to the intellectual swing of the Brubeck Quartet. Carmen McRae's distinctively rhythmic, slightly behind-the-beat vocal delivery perfectly complements the group's highly structured cool jazz aesthetics, resulting in an impeccably elegant collaboration.
