Description

Pennsylvanian jazz singer Christy Barons 1997 album I Thought About You was the first of three albums she recorded for Chesky Records, the New York record label renowned for its high-quality audiophile recordings. Recorded live in the warmly resonant space of St. Peters Episcopal Church in Manhattan, the album finds Barons lush, velvety voice framed by Cliff Kormans eloquent piano, David Fincks elastic double bass, and Payton Crossleys finely nuanced drums.

Barons repertoire for this impeccably produced set blends evergreens from The Great American Songbook (Misty) with jazz standards (Thelonious Monks Round Midnight), soul music classics (Bill Withers Aint No Sunshine) and three peerless interpretations of numbers plucked from Stevie Wonders iconic album, Songs In The Key Of Life, including a sensational reading of Knocks Me Off My Feet.

The album is reissued on 180g One Step Pressing Vinyl LP.
