Joyce Breach/Richard Rodney Bennett
It takes a special person to be a successful cabaret singer. Not only must the person have a reasonable set of vocal chords but, even more important, he/she must be a good storyteller. The fact is, many top cabaret performers aren't blessed with vocal techniques that are all that great. But they have a matchless way with the lyrics that rivets ...

Astrud Gilberto/Walter Wanderley
This record has always been a bit of a disappointment, not because it isn't good but because given the personnel involved it isn't better than it actually is -- it's sort of the bossa nova equivalent of those various Chess Records "super-blues" mega-sessions between Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and whoever else on the roster was still standing in ...

Conchetta (1958) is the first of three albums that actress/vocalist Connie Stevens would cut for the burgeoning Warner Bros. record label. Although only 20 years old at the time, her mature and seemingly effortless vocal style is well matched to the dozen light jazz and pop standards on this disc.

The a cappella novelty "N'Yot N'Yow (The Pussycat Song)" was the foursome's ...
