by
Sylvia Syms
Superb 12-song long-player, derived from Sylvia Syms' October 1952 10" debut LP on Atlantic, and her 1954 Songs by Sylvia Syms. Delightful from the opener, a scintillating rendition of "Paradise," highlighted by Syms' dizzying interaction with Al Cohn's tenor sax, Danny Bank's baritone sax, and Don Elliott's trumpet. The songs tend to alternate ...

A Jazz Portrait of Johnny Mercer

by
Sylvia Syms
Sylvia Syms was nearly 65 when she performed this concert and she knew she sounded her age, joking about it several times during the concert. However that makes little difference for the late singer's touching interpretations of Johnny Mercer's lyrics (and her verbal introductions to each song) are often definitive, making this one of her finest ...

Most of them are gone now, but the music lives on in this six-record boxed set ...

Various Artists
Rhino helps Atlantic sift through its vocal holdings with this fine and somewhat rarefied mix of sides. Cutting across time and styles, the 20-track set takes in both the obscure likes of Betty Bennett and Frances Wayne and more high-profile singers such as Helen Merrill and Bobby Short. Tapping into Atlantic's well-known R&B stock, the collection ...

George Gershwin
In the 1930s, '40s and '50s, no one had a more symbiotic relationship than Decca Records did with the music of George Gershwin. Gershwin's songs were the perfect interpretive fodder for the company's wide variety of pop and jazz artists, and with Decca's stronghold on the market (along with Columbia and RCA Victor), a lot of those tunes passed ...

Not as heavily into the cabaret mode as some other Syms works, she shows her romantic/sentimental side with this release. While she's not an enticing or sensual type, she sings with enough style to make the lyrics register with listeners. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
