Don't Look Back
CD (Item 605178) High Note, 2012 — Condition: New Copy
A wonderful pairing of talents – the ever-evolving vocals of Mary Stallings, and the rock-solid piano talents of Eric Reed! Stallings is one of those singers who just sounds better and better as the years go on – working with a depth and individual sense of structure that recalls Betty Carter or Sarah Vaughan in their later days – especially the latter, as Mary's got this way of crafting lyrical lines with a sense of space that's completely her own – as Reed relates in his notes on the session! The group also features a bit of bass from Reuben Rogers and drums from Carl Allen – although about a third of the set, if not more, features just piano and vocals. Titles include "Night Mist Blues", "Soul Eyes", "Key Largo", "Mary's Blues", 'People Time", "Don't Look Back", and "Is That". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
