O’s Notes: Sheila sings and Cameron Brown provides all musical accompaniments on his upright bass. It takes a lot of talent to pull off a satisfactory performance with just a singer and a bassist but you are in for a treat on this live performance. Jordan is an entertainer, singing the blues, scatting, speaking, and adding commentary in the right spots. Among the highlights are, “Blues Medley for Miles”, “Astaire/Rogers Medley”, “Fats Meets Bird Medley” and our favorite, “Birks Works” with guest Jay Clayton. Sit back and enjoy the show.
