Jackie Ryan - Doozy

(2-CD set) Featured on NPR, Voice of America, CNN TV, Jackie Ryan is, as Jazz Times states, "one of the outstanding jazz vocalists of her generation and, quite possibly, of all time." Doozy (recorded after her Lincoln Center debut, and backed by NYC's hottest names) is a tour de force through the seemingly limitless breadth and bounty of this artist's myriad musical gifts - from rarely heard jazz gems to soulful intimate ballads, sensuous Brazilian bossa novas and Spanish love songs to sassy New Orleans blues and sizzling bebop vocals. It is, "Jackie Ryan at her best!" 20 songs with 24 page color booklet, 36 photos, liner notes by Don Heckman of the Los Angeles Times.
