This was a breakthrough recording for Sheila Jordan. She recorded a
superb album for Blue Note in 1962 and then was off records (and only
working in jazz on a part-time basis) up until the mid-'70s. She cut two
albums for tiny labels and then came this, the first of her vocal-bass
duet recordings. While in later years bassist Harvie Swartz would be her
frequent musical partner, Jordan's SteepleChase set features the
talented Arild Andersen on bass. The communication between the two often
borders on the miraculous and it is a pleasure to hear Sheila Jordan's
fresh and original interpretations of such songs as "Lush Life," "On
Green Dolphin Street," "Don't Explain" and "Better than Anything." by Scott Yanow
