At the Great American Music Hall
Beskrivning:Carmen McRae, en av jazzens finaste sångerskor, framträdde 1976 på The Great American Music Hall i San Francisco och förevigades då på detta sätt.
De musiker som beledsagade henne var Dizzy Gillespie tp, Marshall Otwell keyb, Ed Bennett b och Joey Baron perc.
"Carmen McRae has always shined on stage, and this fine account of her 1976 three-night stand at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco proves the point...//...she even goes completely out of her expected domain with a version of the Alice Cooper ballad "Only Women Bleed" — interesting, to say the least...The whole recording is remarkable, for that matter. And this, no doubt, can be traced to McRae's choice of backing, which includes the venerable Dizzy Gillespie on trumpet and future drumming heavyweight Joey Baron. A must for McRae fans."
