jazz
singers to emerge in the late '70s,

has surprisingly only led two record sessions. A brilliant scatter and a consistently strong improviser,
Lawson
is joined on this 1980 LP by baritonist
Roger Rosenberg
(who also plays soprano and flute), pianist
Bill O'Connell
, bassist
Ratzo Harris
, and drummer
Jimmy Madison
. The highly appealing vocalist really digs into the six tunes, which include
"Jitterbug Waltz,"
Blossom Dearie
's
"Sunday Afternoon,"
"'Round Midnight,"
and
"So High."
should be persuaded to record again. ~ Scott Yanow
