Gloria Lynne - Gloria Lynne Live Take 1

Review by Greg Masley

Gloria Lynne Live Take 1 is a remarkable album featuring the legendary jazz vocalist, Gloria Lynne. Recorded live, this album captures the essence of Lynne's soulful and powerful voice, as she performs some of her biggest hits.

From the opening notes of "I'm Glad There Is You" to the closing track "All Day Long," Lynne delivers a flawless performance that will leave listeners in awe. Her voice is rich and velvety, and she effortlessly navigates each song with grace and style.

The album features a mix of classic standards and lesser-known gems, all of which are given new life by Lynne's incredible vocals. Highlights include the swinging "I'll Be Seeing You," the bluesy "Don't Explain," and the soulful "I Wish You Love."

The musicians backing Lynne are equally impressive, providing a tight and cohesive sound that perfectly complements her vocals. The arrangements are tasteful and allow Lynne's voice to shine, while still providing plenty of opportunities for the band to showcase their skills.

Summary by Greg Masley

Gloria Lynne Live Take 1 is a must-have for any fan of jazz or vocal music. It's a testament to Lynne's talent and a reminder of why she was one of the most beloved performers of her time. Highly recommended.
