On the jazz scene for more than 15 years, Tina May is one of UK's premiere jazz vocal virtuosos. In a country which can boast of important contributors to the art of jazz vocalizing, this is not faint praise. Along with Carol Kidd, Claire Martin, Annie Ross and British diva, Norma Winstone, among others, May has become a major mainstay of contemporary jazz singing. Having the reputation of "doing it her way," May looks to a wide variety of sources for the material she records, including jazz standards, originals, ethnic material and contemporary pop/rock. May is also comfortable with a variety of singing styles making her a complete jazz singer. She is at ease with vocalese, cabaret, improvisation, etc., possessing a delightful, pure English voice which fits very nicely with the material she works with. That One Fine Day is her seventh album for England's 33Jazz label testifies to her success in the way she approaches the music. ~Dave Nathan
