Morgana King seemed to disappear from the scene almost as soon as she appeared. Most people noticed her remarkable voice in 1964 with an intriguingly mystic version of A Taste of Honey. That year she won a Grammy for Best New Artist but somehow she slipped out of many people's awareness and some jazz fans may not even have heard of her. Despite this, her career continued for some while as a singer and actress (she appeared in two of the Godfather films as Marlon Brando's wife).
As these four early albums show, she had a wide vocal range (four octaves) and sang securely in tune, with clear enunciation as well as commendable intonation. She had an air of mystery about her - perhaps because of her high-flying voice and the name Morgana (her real name was Maria Grazia Morgana Messina). These albums were recorded between 1956 and 1959, before she was really well known, but they prove that she was already a notable vocalist. She is worth discovering (or rediscovering), as she puts over every song with skill and confidence.
Like most such Avid double albums, this bargain compilation supplies a generous number of tracks lasting a total of over 142 minutes. And, like most such albums, the information is sketchy, listing few personnels and using tiny print. But the splendid music makes up for this, with classic songs delivered sensitively - and often including little-known verses.
Several tracks are marred by the tinkling of a celeste, which interferes with the subtlety of Morgana's vocals. Yet the many highlights include There's A Lull In My Life (with Mundell Lowe on guitar); Morgana's skittish performance of It's Delovely; the emotional Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man; Lullaby of Birdland which is taken at an unusually fast lick; How High The Moon, featuring four trombonists including King's second husband, Willie Dennis; and Perdido which has Morgana scatting jazzily.
Hearing these glorious recordings, one may wonder why Morgana King never became widely known as a singer. Perhaps she just sounds too subtle and ladylike for broad popularity, as she was seldom an extroverted performer.
