A1 The Golden Thrush 3:20 A2 Stormy Monday Blues 4:45 A3 Broadway 5:30 A4 On a Clear Day 4:25 B1 Oriole 4:04 B2 If Ruled the World 3:25 B3 Blue Jay 6:30 B4 How I Lost My Love 5:05 Alto Saxophone – Otis Sutton Arranged By, Conductor – Johnny "Hammond" Smith Drums – Leo Stevens Guitar – Eddie McFadden Organ – Johnny "Hammond" Smith Tenor Saxophone – Houston Person Vocals – Byrdie Green
Jazz vocalist Byrdie Green is backed by Johnny Hammond's group with Houston Person on tenor and Eddie McFadden on guitar. Green's vocals are nice and boozy, with a classic sound that you would have heard in a nice show lounge in Jersey or Philly, had you been going to shows in the 60's. Tracks include "The Golden Thrush", "How I Lost My Love", "If I Ruled The World", and "Oriole". Nice stuff, and with a good mellow feel. ---dustygroove.com
