Shirley Horn - Light out of Darkness (A Tribute to Ray Charles)

MP3/320kbps The stunning Light Out of Darkness is at once Shirley Horn's loving tribute to the genius of Ray Charles, a stylistic departure from the introspective jazz balladry she's known for, and a journey into the world of R&B. Horn and her trio swing hard on these tracks, and the organic R&B tinged jazz arrangements absolutely simmer, with Horn singing, playing piano, and Hammond B-3 organ. Her distinctive sultry and smoky vocals are bluesy and conversational, similar in approach to Charles'. Horn's masterly chord cluster style of piano playing punctuates her every vocal phrase. Personnel: Shirley Horn (vocals, piano, organ); Gary Bartz (alto saxophone); Charles Ables (guitar, bass); Tyler Mitchell (bass); Steve Williams (drums); The Hornettes (background vocals). Recorded at Clinton Recording Studios, New York, New York, from April-May 1993.
