Featuring: Gloria Cooper - Piano/Voice Jay Brandford - Tenor and Soprano Saxophone Ben Cassorla - Guitar Vince Cherico - Drums Tim Givens - Bass Don Sickler - Trumpet/Flugelhorn/Arranger “Gloria Cooper provides a delicate phrasing and pacing not heard since another musician, Chet Baker, especially on the title tune. For Gloria Cooper is an original, a jazz musician's jazz singer. Don Sickler produced this wonderful CD and recorded with the capable hands of Rudy Van Gelder. When you hear “Seabreeze" and “Something Unusual" with Gloria's lifting gentle lyrics and Don Sickler's sinuous flugelhorn, you'll be back in a 'Baby Breeze' state of mind."
