5.0 out of 5 stars For the ages
Jackie & Roy are for the ages. Even before LH&R, The HiLos or Manhattan Tranfer...they were innovative vocal musicians. Articulate, jazz driven and swinging. To this day, Jackie Cain still processes one of the beautiful voices in jazz singing. It's good to have this rare recording.

I've heard of this twosome for years, heralded as the epitome of jazz standards performed with sophistication. But, I'd never heard them until I bought this CD.

My take? I'm not impressed with Jackie Cain's voice. Perhaps, it's partly due to the need to attenuate it at times, which, I've noticed, is what many female singers do to keep their voice from...

Ahhhh! I saw them a few times in the 60s. She would occasionally wrap her arms around him and hang on him while they sang and he played piano. :-)

Hard not to have tears in my eyes now when I hear them. Particularly "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most" from another album.

Singing for about 55 years!

My take? I'm not impressed with Jackie Cain's voice. Perhaps, it's partly due to the need to attenuate it at times, which, I've noticed, is what many female singers do to keep their voice from being overbearing. But, when Jackie lets hers have full vent, there is also something in the quality of it that I don't like.
