Free Music Notes for You Won't Forget Me
Free Music Review: An Essential Jazz Vocal Recording
Hit: 5 Stars
I've owned this recording for probably 15 years and in all that time I have never tired of it (it was brought to my attention by a Stereophile review - way back then.) The overall tenor of the album can readily be ascertained from the Amazon sound samples and so I won't make any comment on that. For the audiophiles; the recording quality is first rate - easily a demonstration disc. And it certainly qualifies as a reference recording for female jazz vocal. I own quite a number of female jazz vocal recordings and this is easily among the top two or three. I own two other of her recordings on Verve but this is of course the supremum of all three. If after listening to this disc you cannot give it your highest endorsement within the category (female jazz vocal) then something is amiss. Highly recommended, of course.
You Won't Forget Me Poster
Shirley Horn made her recording debut in the early 1960s then returned home to Washington, D.C., to raise a family. She came back to the studio in the late '70s and early '80s, but it wasn't until this 1991 recording--her third Verve release--that she finally received the recognition she was due. You Won't Forget Me features Horn's trio of bassist Charles Ables and drummer Steve Williams, plus guest soloists Miles Davis, Wynton Marsalis, Branford Marsalis, Toots Thielemans, and fellow D.C. legend Buck Hill. The album projects a warm musical vision that elevates lyrical storytelling over fancy scatting. Here, maturity enhances rather than diminishes romantic longing. --Rick MitchellJazz Music CDs
