O’s Notes: Emanating out of Cincinnati, Ohio and residing in New York for the past three decades or so, Amy London has starred on Broadway, in vocal groups (The Royal Bopsters) and blossoming as a solo artist in 2007 with“When I Look In Your Eyes. On“Bridges“she surrounds herself with strong talent starting with pianist Fred Hersch who also produced and arranged the first eight tracks. Those songs include bassist Harvie S, Victor Lewis (b), Bob Mintzer (sax) and Cyro Baptista (perc). Peter Madden (p), Byron Stripling (t) and Dr. Lonnie Smith (B3) show up later in the set! Amy stays with the pack to deliver a convincing set of jazz and pop classics.
