Blossom Dearie: Blossom Time at Ronnie Scott's

Read "Blossom Time at Ronnie Scott's" reviewed by Samuel Chell


Several years ago Blossom Dearie said that of all her recordings, this on-location session from 1966 was her personal favorite. Although artists are notoriously unreliable critics of their own work, it's hard to quarrel with the singer/pianist's preference given the evidence on this reissue. Anyone who has yet to discover the inimitable, Lolita-like voice of this ...

Blossom Dearie: My Gentleman Friend

Blossom Dearie: Blossom Dearie Sings Comden and Green

Read "Blossom Dearie Sings Comden and Green" reviewed by David Adler


This was the fourth of six titles that Blossom Dearie would record for Verve in the mid to late 1950s. As James Gavin explains in his liner essay for the 2001 reissue, Norman Granz wanted to further the success of the “songbook" concept he had developed with Ella Fitzgerald, so he sold Dearie on a tribute ...
