Synopsis

Album Description

Compilations of sublime early recordings by Blossom Dearie; one of the most distinctive vocalists Jazz has produced. Americans know Blossom's voice, mostly through her unforgettable performances of 'Unpack Your Adjectives' and 'Figure 8' for Schoolhouse Rock. The Japanese - who see her as Pop rather than Jazz -long ago succumbed to her charm and she has toured there regularly throughout her career. Unlikely as it may sound, Kylie Minogue claims that it was Blossom Dearie who inspired her to sing! What is clear is that her emergence in the mid fifties was something shockingly different; a breath of fresh air for popular music. El. 2007.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Blossom Dearie is known as a great vocalist with some of Verve's finest jazz musicians. Blossom Dearie is a fine pianist. Blossom Dearie is a wonderful addition to a vocal group. And this CD features outstanding examples of all three of her roles. Twenty-eight tunes, most from her golden period in the 1950s, make this import re-issue package a tremendous buy. Better yet, it's a tremendous listening experience from start to finish."
