Album Review
This well-rounded set gives listeners a good look at the adventurous music of Betty Carter. For this CD, she is joined by one of two rhythm sections (with either Benny Green or Stephen Scott on piano) and, on four of the nine songs, tenor saxophonist Don Braden. Carter twists and turns some familiar songs (such as "The Man I Love," "Imagination" and "The Good Life") along with a variety of lesser-known material including two songs of her own. Consistently unpredictable (whether scatting or stretching out ballads) Betty Carter's recordings are always quite stimulating.
Customer Reviews
Look What I Got!
Excellent album which displays the range and depth of Be-Bop-Betty's talent. It showcases her ability as a songwriter/vocalist with her unique style and impeccable scatting ability. Scatting is a lost art today except for those few whom still demonstrate this craft i.e. Al Jarreau, Bobby McFerrin, and Diane Reeves. Betty you are missed. :)
