O’s Notes: Midnight Bloom“is the follow up recording to Miki’s debut Swinging By the Sea (81). Pianist, co-producer Tamir Hendelman returns for this set of fourteen songs that includes lullabies, ballads and swingers. We appreciate Miki’s continued evolution that surfaces on ‘Embraceable You‘ where she’s shadowed by Bob Sheppard (sax, cl, fl) who also appears on four other selections. Dr. Purnell is an accomplished, holistic health provider in San Diego who keeps her life balanced with music while soothing the souls of her listeners.
