Helen Merrill Live In Japan 1990

[@claudeneuman719]

Went to hear her in a bar in Toronto, that same year 1990. Nobody was listening to her, she had to ask the bartender to shut off the baseball game on telly. I invited her for a drink at my table at intermission, to tell her that at least someone was listening. She was philosophical about the whole thing. Bless her.

いい雰囲気ですねー。 昔は大して上手くもない金髪のかわい子ちゃん歌手ってイメージでしたけど、年齢を重ねるとずいぶん味が出ましたね。 旦那さんのピアノもいいし、特にベースは録音がいいし何度も聴きたくなります。 飲みながら聴くと最高です。ありがとうございます。

She’s so underrated and almost forgotten I feel like she should be praised and cherished by more people

Mother of late singer Alan Merrill and aunt to legendary singer songwriter Laura Nyro. What a family!

Does anyone know the trio personnel?

[@beforeourveryeyes]

It's at the end: Torrie Zito p, Ms. Merrill's husband; Ned Mahn b; Kenny Clarke d. They are all no longer in those bodies, though surely making music wherever they are.

[@CityOfMozart]

@@beforeourveryeyes Terry Clarke! Kenny Clarke died five years earlier.

[@beforeourveryeyes]

@@CityOfMozart Yes thank you. One of the most confusing things in jazz is how many musicians have similar names.

ANITA beats this woman to & fro, anytime & any- and everywhere, in all the keys, tempos and styles. CHRIS also ....needless to mention the original Ladies ...Betty, Abbey, Carmen ..
