Singer Ruth Price on this early set falls somewhere between swinging
jazz, middle-of-the-road pop, and cabaret. She does not improvise much,
but her strong and very appealing voice uplifts the diverse material
that she interprets (including "Dearly Beloved," "Shadrack," "Crazy He
Calls Me," and "Look for the Silver Lining"), and she brings great
sincerity to Leonard Bernstein's "Who Am I." Backed by Shelly Manne's
quintet (with plenty heard from pianist Russ Freeman, but just guest
spots by Richie Kamuca on tenor and one lone appearance by trumpeter
Conte Candoli), Price is in fine form for her debut recording as a
leader, which has been reissued on CD in the OJC series. by Scott Yanow
