The record
A lesser-known date from the fragile-voiced Kenney, cushioned here by an unusually plush chamber-jazz lineup -- harp, french horn, twin guitars -- rather than a straight rhythm section. The arrangements give her light, conversational phrasing room to breathe, a quietly elegant find from the Fresh Sound reissue vaults.
