This week on Caminhos do Jazz radio we mark the passing of the great singer Nancy King, and bid farewell to several other towering musicians who have left us: the inimitable pianists Hal Galper and Eddie Palmieri, and San Antonio's own Flaco Jiménez, the celebrated conjunto accordionist, singer and songwriter. The heart of the program is a deep dive into Impending Bloom (Justice Records, 1991), the unforgettable album by King and bassist Glen Moore, which features the whimsical lyrics of Samantha Moore (Justice Records, 1991).Check the YouTube (bottom of page) for a preview of King's stunning solo version of Arthur Schwartz and Howard Dietz's 1937 classic, "By Myself."
