O’s Notes: Japanese vocalist, co-producer Yuka Mito performs regularly in New York and Tokyo. Pianist, co-producer Hirohito Morioka, Bassist, arranger Iwao Masuhara, and drummer Yoshifumi Nihonmatsu provide a good foundation for Mito. “Agua de Beber” is one of the best selections. She also dedicates two of the late Burt Bacharach’s songs to his memory, notably “Alfie”. We also enjoyed “Corcovado”.
