Taken from radio transcriptions, this CD features singer
June Christy
in 1957 in brief (generally under three minute) performances. She is assisted by either
the Jerry Gray Orchestra
, drummer
Shelly Manne's Trio
(with pianist
Russ Freeman
and bassist
Monty Budwig
) and on
"Rock Me to Sleep"
the Manne Quintet
(which has altoist
Herb Geller
and trumpeter
Stu Williamson
added).
June Christy's
voice is in fine form (she was in her prime throughout the 1950s) and highlights include "From This Moment On," "How High the Moon," "Midnight Sun" and "That's All." But due to the lack of stretching out, this set is primarily of interest to
completists. ~ Scott Yanow
