I Remember Miles

I Remember Miles

Shirley Horn is a talented jazz vocalist/pianist who has been recording since the early 1960s. Her delicate voice was an inspiration to Miles Davis, who performed three standards on his disc, Seven Steps to Heaven after hearing Horn's evocative interpretations. On I Remember Miles, Horn pays tribute to the late trumpeter by singing those standards ("Basin Street Blues," "Baby Won't You Please Come Home," and "I Fall in Love Too Easily") and reprising a trio of tunes from Porgy And Bess. Accompanied by trumpeter Roy Hargrove and harmonica virtuoso Toots Thielemans as well as Davis alumni Ron Carter on bass and Al Foster on drums, Ms. Horn displays all the nuance and style that endeared Miles to her in the first place. A moving homage. --Mitch Myers
