Vocal Jazz | Label: Verve Records

Verve Records releases the latest editions in its breakout Great Women of Song series, which pays homage to the ground-breaking work and lasting impact of some of the greatest female vocalists of all time. Like her idol Billie Holiday, Carmen McRae could own a ballad and make it all her own. She could also swing every bit as hard as her other main influence, Ella Fitzgerald. Coming up during the bebop era and under the musical sway of Thelonious Monk, Carmen made a series of recordings for the Decca label that would cement her reputation and launch a career that close to 50 years. Whether in small groups or backed by a studio orchestra, Carmen McRae recorded definitive versions of songs that make up the backbones of jazz and the Great American Songbook.

Carmen McRae was one of the top jazz singers of all time. During the two sessions (dating from 1963 and 1969) that comprise 'Let There Be Love', she was very much in her prime. With John Forbes' new arrangements and orchestrations accompanying her voice, the beauty of McRae's tone, her very original and personal phrasing, and her ability to make every song her own though her subtle improvising are very much in evidence.
