Jordan celebrated her 76th birthday last November by recording a performance at New York's upper West Side club, The Triad. Accompanied solely by Cameron Brown's solid bass lines, Jordan successfully swoops and flits around the melodies of a diverse collection of material, starting off with Oscar Brown Jr.'s "Humdrum Blues and an up-tempo version of Ellington's "Mood Indigo .
In addition to Abbey Lincoln and Mal Waldron's "Straight Ahead , rendered moodily as befits the lyrics, Jordan put together three different medleys. The first, a blues medley for Miles Davis, consists of "Blue Skies , "All Blues and "Freddie the Freeloader , the latter sung in vocalese as well as scat. The Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers medley is comprised of the swinging and familiar "Let's Face the Music and Dance , "Cheek to Cheek , "I Won't Dance , "I Could Have Danced All Night and "Pick Yourself Up . And the last medley, titled "Fats Meets Bird and including "Honeysuckle Rose , "Ain't Misbehavin' and "Scrapple From The Apple , is handled lightly with alternating vocal and bass solos. As a special guest, singer Jay Clayton joined the two on stage for a rendition of Gillespie's "Birk's Works , scatted by both singers who solo and playfully sing together. The memorable evening closed with two Jordan originals: "Sheila's Blues and "The Crossing.
Jordan's small and quirky voice covers a lot of ground and she and Brown read each other like a book, working hand in hand with a sense of humor and joy.~Marcia Hillman
Personnel: Sheila Jordan (vocals); Cameron Brown (double bass).
