BARBARA RUSSELL - Swing With Me [1960] UAR / LP / FLAC

Barbara Russell was a singer with a vibrant, arresting vocal quality, a fine sense of phrasing and feel for a lyric, and an utterly captivating style. She was also a tall, willowy blonde, a commanding presence and a star in every respect. It made for a performer capable of holding an audience from the first note and maintaining the interest and excitement throughout the entire performance.
Her jazz-influenced style runs the gamut from warm, intimate ballads to the swinging up tempo tunes, as she demonstrated in these two albums recorded for United Artists between 1960 and 1962. She treated each song with respect, and the Don Costa arrangements on Swing with Me, and those of Nick Peritofor Golden Blues became the velvet cushion for the jeweled tones of Barbara Russell.
