Vocalist supreme Kim Nalley put her mark on the Johnny Nocturne Band's "Million Dollar Secret" album, seductively purring the band's tunes to life. On her new album "Need My Sugar," she presents a selection of nine tunes, revealing the work of a singer with an expansive musical sensibility. Backed by Etta James' pianist Dave Mathews, superlative bassist Jeff Chambers and the deft drummer Kent Bryson (who holds down the drum chair in the Johnny Nocturne Band), Nalley moves gracefully through a range of material that displays her respect for the tradition of Ivie Anderson, Billie Holiday and Dinah Washington and her determination to add to the lineage. ~ Editorial Reviews  http://www.amazon.com/Need-My-Sugar-Kim-Nalley/dp/B00006SM92
