O’s Notes: Carla’s style is unique, bending notes with just the right amount of inflection and emotion to tell the story. Her rap-inspired opening on “Love For Sale” is a cool new twist and indicative of the creativity employed. White, equally adept on ballads and bebop (scatting), warms up ten standards and one of her own.
