Album Notes & Community Reviews

Backed by the remarkably punchy, highly swinging big band arrangements of a young Miles Davis (who also provides stellar muted trumpet solos), the preeminent vocalist delivers an incredibly dynamic studio performance. Her jaw-dropping operatic range and flawless, horn-like improvisational agility cut effortlessly through the dense brass charts. The pristine, high-fidelity project captures a towering vocal talent expertly navigating the intersection of mainstream pop polish and aggressive modern jazz.
