'Lorraine Foster – 'Live At The Alma' Street Café is a superb 12 song recording of ‘popular’, ‘broadway’ and ‘big band’ vocal arrangements recorded with some of Vancouver’s finest jazz musicians. Selections include; "'S Wonderful", "Alright OK You Win", "My Romance", "Our Love Is Here To Stay" and the popular Duke Ellington number "It Don’t Mean A Thing If It Ain’t Got That Swing". Lorraine Foster learned her craft where many of the legendary vocalists of the big band era found their inspiration, singing with the bands. She can usually be found in Vancouver performing with the legendary Dal Richards and his Orchestra. CLICK HERE. |

'Lily-Ann MacDonald - 'Everybody's Crying Mercy' is a born in Ontario but roots in the Maritimes (the Barra MacNeil's are her cousins) singer now living in Vancouver. Early influences include the folk music of her Scottish parents, plus big helpings of rock 'n' roll, country, R & B and gospel. But the songs recorded here - some familiar, some obscure - are the jazz classics she has been humming her whole life, in sparkling new arrangements by pianist Miles Black and producer Rick Kilburn. This is Lily-Ann's first solo CD and I'm sure there will be more. CLICK HERE. |
