Description
180g virgin vinyl limited edition of 750 copies only - the complete album + 3 bonus tracks. Once billed as "Europe's First Lady of Jazz," Dutch singer Rita Reys (1924-2013) was a legend overseas during the second half of the 20th century, and certainly one of the top European jazz singers.
The LP 'The Cool Voice of Rita Reys'(considered her best record ever) presents her backed on one side by a band led by her husband, drummer Wessel Ilcken, and on the other side by Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers in two manifestations of the band featuring Donald Byrd, Hank Mobley, Horace Silver, Kenny Drew, Wilbur Ware, and others.
