Classic blues singer Alberta Hunter's final recording (made when she was 87, two years before her death) is as powerful as her previous three Columbia albums. The legendary delightful singer puts plenty of feeling into "Look for the Silver Lining," "He's Funny That Way," "Somebody Loves Me" and four of her originals. 

As was true of each of her final sets, Hunter is joined by the Gerald Cook quartet and several veteran horn players (trumpeters Doc Cheatham and Jonah Jones, trombonist Vic Dickenson and tenorman Budd Johnson), all of whom sound quite happy to be supporting the ancient yet ageless singer. ~ Scott Yanow  http://www.allmusic.com/album/look-for-the-silver-lining-mw0000312123

Featuring : Alberta Hunter (vocals), Vic Dickenson (trombone), Jonah Jones (trumpet), Frank Anderson (hammond organ), Billy Butler (guitar), Jimmy Lewis (bass), Butch Miles (drums), Vishnu Wood (bass)

  1. Dear friends and benefactors, would you be kind enough to re-up this and the other Alberta Hunter on the page, Amtrak Blues? We used to see her perform, in her 80s, at the Cookery, NYC. Memorable! Abraço forte!
