O’s Notes: Lisa places herself inside of the lyrics to tell the story on each of these 14 classics from the American songbooks. She sings in front of the Keith Ingham Quartet with Al Gafa (g), Steve Little (d), Frank Tate (b) and Ben Wittman (perc). This team provides excellent support. The program includes works from Hammerstein, Mercer and Rogers &Hart. This is Maxwell’s second release after her miraculous recovery from a vocal cord disorder. Her voice is gentle with good tone as she continues to evolve.
