O’s Notes: Amber celebrates the music of Nancy Wilson, A Lady With A Song. It’s tough to go wrong with this repertoire and Weekes doesn’t diminish the songs. Lovers of Wilson will appreciate the memories this thirteen-song session provides. Highlights are “Gentleman Friend” featuring Russell Malone (g), “Save Your Love For Me” featuring Gerald Albright (t-sax) & Paul Jackson, Jr. (g), and “I’m Always Drunk in San Francisco” featuring Rashawn Ross (t).
