Recorded on July 9, 1978
Amazing performances. One of the great jazz vocal albums of the 1970s.
Listen to this album and you'll understand why Shirley Horn was one of Miles Davis' favorite singers.

For all the late career popularity that Shirley Horn enjoyed (and deserved), this SteepleChase album is the best recorded illustration of her pure jazz talents. Teamed with two of the greatest rhythm section players ever, Shirley demonstrates her piano skills as well as her gentle and soulful singing. So glad that this made it to the favorites of the '70s.
