O’s Notes: Ava’s voice is warm and dynamic with a lot of color. She is supported by a very good band including Larry Novak (p), Larry Gray (b), Leon Joyce (d, perc) and producer Henry Johnson (g). Johnson’s contribution is strong throughout the set with crisp solos, fills and rhythms. He also joins Ava with vocals on “Day Dream”, a beautiful ballad. The program includes popular standards like “Too Close for Comfort” as well as lesser know gems like “Wild is the Wind”. While Logan has performed for quite some time, this is her debut recording and it has been worth the wait!
