I Got Rhythm – Rare & Unissued Recordings 1949 to 1964
CD (Item 593316) MCN (Netherlands), 1950s/Early 60s — Condition: New Copy
A treasure trove of rare work from Dutch singer Rita Reys – one of the best jazz vocalists on the European scene during the postwar years! Rita's got this way of singing deeply, yet still keeping things swinging – a really great balance that has her never getting too emotive, certainly not in ways you might normally associate with European singers – yet also still managing to bring a great sort of depth to her music! Jazz formats dominate throughout – and these rare archive sessions feature Rita singing with the groups of Pim Jacobs, Piet Van Dijk, Bo Edgar, Ove Lind, Mat Mathews, and Lars Gullin – all with a great deal of clarity, every bit as much as you'd hear from Reys' studio recordings of the period. Titles include "Charge Account", "Mean To Me", "I Got Rhythm", "There's A Small Hotel", "Get Out Of Town", "Willow Weep For Me", "All Of You", "When The Blues Come On", and "She's Funny That Way". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
