O’s Notes: Combine the rich vocals of Manhattan Transfer alum Cheryl Bentyne with the laid back style of Mark Winkler and you have vocal duo that recreates sound of the late 1950s and makes it fresh. Bob Sheppard (sax), Rich Eames (p), Gabe Davis (b) and Grant Geissman (g) are a part of a strong supporting team of musicians across eleven classic tunes. The writers are Winkler, Rogers/Hammerstein, Cy Coleman, Peggy Lee and the late Bob Dorough to whom his CD is dedicated.
