Editorial Reviews

CD reissue of this 1979 album from the legendary Jazz singer, who has issued only a handful of recordings over the years. Dreams Of Tomorrow is one of those rare Jazz albums that made the Billboard album charts. The album features musical assistance from the Tower Of Power horn section.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not her best but still good, November 8, 2000

This review is from: Dreams of Tomorrow (Audio CD)

She has a great jazz voice and sings every song with what seems like complete honesty. On straight ahead stuff she is primo. This is a short album, only 9 tracks and expensive as a import is. Five of them rate with her best and the other four are so-so. I'd still buy it because her styling is excellent. With Russell Ferrante of the Yellow Jackets as a side man and arranger the same thread of the other albums carries through. I have a fair collection of Jazz vocalists and comparing what is out there, she deserves to be more popular. I'd buy anything she records sight unseen

Some of Ms. Scott's later offerings do not have as much going for them as this one does. Russell Ferrante (of Ferrante & Teicher & the Yellow Jackets) provides a great piano counterpointe to Marilyn's range. This range has been fully exercised throughout this work. She goes from the mellow to the soaring, especially on the cut "You're All I Need". It is exceptional. Ms. Scott should review these efforts before doing another disc. It may help her re-establish a commercial as well as artistic success.
