A husky voice fills the night.
A live recording from 1963 at the prestigious Village Gate in New York.
A calm piano sound fills the air, and Chris Connor's husky vocals create a quiet tension. Ronnie Ball's refined piano, Mundell Lowe's soft guitar, Richard Davis's heavy bass, and Ed Shaughnessy's light drumming support the vocals. The album opens with a light swing in "Lot Of Livin' To Do," and "Black Coffee" evokes the rich, nuanced atmosphere of a late-night club. This album conveys the sense of presence unique to a live recording at Village Gate.
