(Vocal Jazz) Jeri Southern - The Very Thought of You: Decca Recordings 1951-57 - 1999, FLAC (image+.cue)

Whether Jeri Southern was a jazz singer or simply a jazz-influenced pop singer has been debated. To be sure, many of her ‘50s recordings were heavily arranged and devoid of improvisation—and if you believe that improvisation is a key element of jazz, you have to believe that much of her output was essentially pop. But however you categorize her, Southern was among the finest female singers of her era. This 21-song collection, which came out in 1999, underscores the excellence of her ‘50s output for Decca. Southern’s accompaniment ranges from lush string orchestras to the trio of guitarist Dave Barbour (who was best known for his work with Peggy Lee); and on some selections, she is heard on piano.
