Clifford Brown with singers - jazzboCR - 24-06-2015
A superior frontman and bandleader, yes, but especially empathic as a side man with women singers. Ron Weinstock keyed me to a terrif CD set: http://inabluemood.blogspot.com/2012/12/clifford-brown-with-great-jazz-singers.html << As a result of this I have skin in the game. AMG is equally rapturous: http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-emarcy-master-takes-vol-2-the-singers-sessions-mw0002421263 << An essential? No. A very highly recommended? Mos' def'. One album with each woman, all done in about 5 months. Astonishing.
Some tunes (this is where I have my fun):
W/Dinah Washington https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oWx95lejmk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XHm1tps9oQ << "...bless it too..."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDFqsx34dVs << Backed her on live gigs too

w/Helen Merrill https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YM0PhsP7ulk << Done by many; this version stands tall

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JB-DZbP0L8 << a down-and-out saga done to perfection

Bro I'm not that good--i just respond to triggers, sought and unsought, conscious or otherwise. Sometimes that mind-meld happens...
