On her first two recordings,
Deep Night
and
Ev'rything's Made for Love
, both made for the
Stomp Off
label,
Barbara Rosene
showed how comfortable and natural she is singing material from the 1920s. Rather than copying her predecessors, she sounds very much like herself.
All My Life
moves
Rosene
up to the 1930s, '40s, and '50s, displaying her talents as a creative and warm
swing
singer. Her beautiful voice perfectly fits the material, as does her subtle improvising. Backed by a fine
jazz
quintet that includes trumpeter
Simon Wettenhall
,
Peter Martinez
on clarinet and tenor, and pianist
Tom Roberts
makes the vintage material sound fresh, lively, and sometimes touching. Among the highlights are such superior songs as
"Till Then,"
"Fools Rush In,"
"Trust in Me,"
"It Could Happen to You."
While listening to these tunes, it becomes clear that
really knows the meaning behind the lyrics, and she sometimes brings out hidden beauty in even the most familiar songs. Even on the sadder
ballads
is a musical joy. It is highly recommended. ~ Scott Yanow
