A great meeting of soulful talents – the Hammond of Johnny Hammond Smith, and the vocals of Byrdie Green – an excellent singer who's maybe best known for some Northern Soul singles! Here, Byrdie brings a hip vibe to the record – excellent vocals that are a perfect match for Johnny's jazzy organ, as well as work from HoustonPerson on tenor, Otis Sutton on alto, and Eddie McFadden on guitar! Titles include include "The Golden Thrush", "How I Lost My Love", "If I Ruled The World", "Blue Jay", and "Oriole". (Jazz, Vocalists)LP, Vinyl record album
(Blue label pressing, with Van Gelder stamp – a wonderful copy! Cover has a tiny cutout hole – but is great overall.)
A nice back to basics session from jazz singer Etta Jones – recorded with backing by a small combo that includes HoustonPerson on tenor – and done in the laidback style that always seems to bring out the best in her singing. Other players include Idris Muhammad, Jimmy Ponder, and Sonny Phillips – and tracks include "The Way You Look Tonight", "Be My Love", "Don't Misunderstand", and "Gloomy Sunday". LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has ring and edge wear, clear tape on the spine.)
