about
The supremely gifted Joe Williams made Everyday I Have The Blues his signature tune, but Yvette gives ol' Joe a run for his money on this powerhouse version. Sounding a lot like blues and R&B legend Dakota Staton, Yvette is sassy and sure throughout. Wycliffe Gordon has his say, and both trombonist and singer seem to be egging each other on to new heights.

A crisp take on old, scratchy Basie classics. Can't say I'm in love with the vocals, but instrumental tracks are killer.
Lots of good stuff to DJ from here. Jose Tello

I'm digging the covers. Some of these charts are harder to pull off with a small group (i.e. The Jeep is Jumpin'.) Overall it's a fun album with popular songs. The version of Castle Rock especially stands out. Jose Tello
