Although Rebecca Kilgore can clearly sing jazz, she plays it fairly straight on this duet set with pianist Dave Frishberg (who refrains from singing himself). She uplifts a variety of standards including many lesser-known items, everything from "Brazil" and "Martha" to "Lullaby in Rhythm," "Robin Hood," "Detour Ahead" and the 1920s piece "There Ain't No Sweet Man That's Worth the Salt of My Tears." This set is recommended on the basis of Kilgore's attractive voice, but she is obviously capable of stretching out and challenging herself quite a bit, more than she does here. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |
