With its progressive-leaning jazz and modernist blues vocals, In the
Night was the prototype for the piano-vocals collaboration record that
George Shearing would remake with Peggy Lee, Nat King Cole, and Nancy
Wilson while at Capitol (and many others afterwards). In July 1957, just
after Dakota Staton's immense success with "The Late, Late Show,"
Capitol recorded two of its biggest jazz stars together for what would
turn out to be one of the finest teamings in either's career. Staton
appears on every other song, lending her blend of post-bop vocal prowess
and late-night melodrama to a set of well-chosen songs including "In
the Night" and "I Hear Music." (Ironically, the version of "The Late,
Late Show" heard here is an instrumental.) Shearing and Staton are
joined by the pianist's group at the time, including Emil Richards on
vibes, the splendid Toots Thielemans on guitar, and a few features for
Latin percussionist Armando Peraza. The group's finest features are the
opener, "From Rags to Richards," a fine Shearing original with excellent
solos from Richards and Shearing, and Ray Bryant's "Pawn Ticket," with
fine work from Thielemans and Richards. by John Bush
