Nina Sheldon: Harvest
ByBobby Troup's "Baby, Baby, All the Time" is perfect for her type of deft delivery, which has a throwaway quality that can only be achieved through real know-how. One is reminded of those golden times when the ladies June Christy, Anita O'Day and the just-passed Chris Connor seemed incapable of a clichéd delivery. Backed by David "Fathead" Newman's warm sax on the gem, Sheldon sings relaxed while giving out solid piano. As throughout the set, she radiates a friendly self-confidence, that of a hip pussycat satisfyingly licking her paws with some cream on her whiskers.
