Ann Hampton Callaway has a strong reputation as one of the top cabaret singers of the 1990's but, unlike most others in that idiom, she is also a talented jazz singer. Callaway, who has a beautiful voice with a wide range, always swings while giving strong emphasis to the lyrics she is interpreting. Her ambitious and successful Ella Fitzgerald tribute uses on some songs a string section (recorded in Estonia), an American big band, a trio consisting of pianist Cyrus Chestnut, bassist Christian McBride and drummer Lewis Nash and (On "Do Nothin' Till You Hear From Me" and "How High The Moon") guest trumpeter Wynton Marsalis. Although Callaway does not sound that much like Ella, she pays tribute to the First Lady of Song through her repertoire (14 superior standards), phrasing and joyful swing. Highpoints include "A Fine Romance," "But Not For Me," an emotional "Little Girl Blue" and a stomping rendition of "Lady Be Good." This is a highly recommended elease that both serves as a memorial to Ella and as a strong introduction for jazz listeners to Ann Hampton Callaway. ~ Scott Yanow

1996 Reissue. W/ W.Marsalis, C.Chesnut,C.Mcbride

Tributee: Ella Fitzgerald.

Personnel: Ann Hampton Callaway (vocals); Wynton Marsalis (trumpet); Cyrus Chestnut (piano); Christian McBride (double bass); Lewis Nash (drums).JazzTimes (2/97, p.110) - "...a lavish showcase for a splendid singer: luscious contralto, three-octave range, smack-on intonation, intelligent phrasing, clean diction, daring scat and vocalese. Style is breathy-dramatic, but faithful to songs..."

At first, she may remind you of Barbra Streisand, but only when Streisand's voice is still in first gear. Unlike Streisand, who soon takes off for the stratosphere, when Ann Hampton Callaway revs her voice up, she reveals a husky alto that occasionally bridges into the soprano range and that suggests, among female singers, Sarah Vaughan's plush tones, but, more than anyone else, the "velvet fog" sound of ...

This is Ann Hampton Callaway's seventh recording, Easy Living, is one of her very best. It's a program of well-known standards and fairly stock arrangements, but in the middle is her pristine, well-defined, flexible voice. She retains a lower-end range in her style that suggests only one singer: Sarah Vaughan. She's joined by several different ...

Most jazz aficionados will rank Anita O'Day as one the very best vocalists that the genre had to offer in the 1940s and 1950s. Her satiny tone, natural sense of rhythm, and improvisational skills placed her alongside the elite voices of the day. Manhattan Transfer's Cheryl Bentyne recognizes O'Day's vocal contributions by paying tribute to the singer on her second Telarc Jazz release, Let Me Off Uptown. ...

How To Build A Lighthouse
Kevin Kane How To Build A Lighthouse CD  (2007)

To Ella With Love songs
CD $12.19  Audio Samples
Since the demise of the Grapes of Wrath in 2001, co-leader Kevin Kane has kept a low musical profile, releasing only a solo acoustic album, Timmy Loved Judas Priest, that consisted entirely of covers. His third solo release overall, How to Build a Lighthouse is Kane's first full-band album under his own name, with his own guitar and keyboards backed with bass, drums, and cello. The low-key arrangements keep Kane's vocals front and center, and he's in fine voice throughout: his wispy, breathy tenor has remained largely unchanged since the Grapes of Wrath's chart heyday. As a result, the overdubbed self-harmonies on the excellent opening track, "Last to Know," are sure to appeal to that breed of pop fans whose mental radios are permanently tunes to the 1970s AM band. Other highlights include the sparse, ghostly "Late Night," which has more of a Big Star Third/Sister Lovers vibe, and the closest thing to a rocker on this low-key album, the New Pornographers-like power pop of "No Black Dots." The oddly glammy, Redd Kross-style cover of Pink Floyd's "Arnold Layne" is good for a laugh ...
