Live At Sugar Hill, San Francisco

Live At Sugar Hill, San Francisco

Carmen McRae sang with remarkable rhythmic ease and her deft turns-of-phrase helped to conceal a relatively limited range, while her ballad singing revealed enormous emotional depths. Her repertoire included many popular items from the Great American Songbook, but her jazz background ensured that she rarely strayed outside the idiom. Relaxed and unpretentious in performance and dedicated to her craft, McRae secured a place of honor in the history of jazz singing. This album is a labor of love. Carmen McRae loves San Francisco and Sugar Hill, Sugar Hill and San Francisco love Carmen McRae, making this a perfect place to record her amazing voice. Originally recorded in 1962, and features Norman Simmons, Victor Sproles & Stu Martin. 10 total tracks. Stereo Time. 2005.
