O’s Notes: Ernestine is one of the most underrated jazz vocalists. This compilation features a dozen classics recorded on Concord between 1979 and 1990. Pianists George Shearing, Monty Alexander, Gene Harris, and Hank Jones tickle the ivory and Ray Brown (b) is also present backing the deep vocals of a confident, mature Anderson.
