O's Place By D. Oscar Groomes - Review
Amy London - When I Look Into Your Eyes 4/4
O's Notes: Amy sings a dozen arrangements of classic jazzy tunes. The secret
to her wonderful sound is her integration with her band, placing her voice
amidst the rhythmic action and expressing the theme of the words at the same
time. The band is equally strong including John Hicks (p), Rufus Reid (b),
Roni Ben-Hur (g) and Richie Vitale (t). This is a rare lead recording effort
from London. She stays busy on the New York music scene, teaching, composing
and performing while raising her family. After hearing her on this CD we
agree with Mark Murphy encouraging her to come back with another warm
recording soon!
