Description
Though Hazel Scott (1920-1981) earned a great deal of her fame for swinging the classics from a red hot keyboard, her talents extended far beyond the realm of crass showmanship and she reached the other extreme, that of warm, delicate and intimate jazz playing. This album presents this lesser known side of Miss Scotts musical personality, and the resulting music creates a mood which is relaxing and richly romantic, particularly suited for round midnight.
Recorded in New York City, December 27, 1956 (Side A #3,4, Side B #2) and January 11, 1957
Side B, track #3 is an excerpt from Act 2, Scene 3 of Frank Loesser's Broadway Musical "The Most Happy Fella"
On cover: George Steck piano
Originally issued in Mono as Decca LP (DL 8474)
