ANNIE ROSS
A HANDFUL OF SONGS | |
Description:
By 1963, Annie Ross had permanently moved back to England and had started working more as an actress than as a singer. This interesting set features Ross backed by an orchestra arranged and conducted by Johnnie Spence. The obvious high point is one of the darkest and scariest versions of "Love For Sale" ever recorded; Ross' desperate sounding rendition is haunting. Otherwise, she performs a variety of standards in lightly swinging fashion, not scatting or using vocalese but instead working on interpreting the lyrics. |
