A tribute to the legendary Sarah Vaughan a singer that Marjorie Barnes certainly matches with her wonderful range and sublime sense of phrasing but a set that also gets some nice soulful undercurrents, too and a presentation level that reminds us a bit of Ernestine Anderson's best work at times! The group here is a small Dutch combo with Rob Van Bavel on piano and they do a great job of keeping in the pocket, and laying down a great rhythmic groove on the swingers then stepping back a fair bit on the gentler moments, so that Marjorie opens up in even more Vaughan-like lines. Titles include "So Many Stars", "Speak Low", "The Lamp Is Low", "East Of The Sun", "In A Mellow Tone", "Easy Living", and "Passing Strangers". © 1996-2016, Dusty Groove, Inc. https://www.dustygroove.com/item/758490
