We sing Corona away! (Toppyjazz 586)

With so many female jazz vocalists we take you once again to a couple of excellent male musicians. First arranger Richard Wess (1930-1973).
 He made some fantastic albums with Bobby Darin, Buddy Greco and his own album Music She Digs The Most.
 Next inline is composer, pianist and singer Matt Dennis. At last we found all his albums! We're very proud to announce Your Favourite Records a jazz label from Danmark.
 We got the rights to air all their albums, from next month on!
You will hear a little proof of the work of Hans Ulrik, a fine Danish saxplayer.
