Product Details

Blossom Dearie occupies a singular corner of the American songbook tradition, a bebop-schooled pianist who came up in the New York and Paris jazz scenes of the late 1940s and early 1950s before those Verve sessions cemented her cult following. Her small, breathy voice was a deliberate artistic choice, not a limitation, and listeners who've found her tend to hold on tight.


Vinyl LP pressing. Noted for a distinctive voice, a tender way with a ballad and a fierce sense of swing, singer-pianist Blossom Dearie invested even the most familiar standards with her delightful, one-of-a-kind wit and charm. The selections included here are from the iconic series of albums Dearie made for Verve Records beginning in 1956. Ooh-la-la!
