Ernestine Anderson is a singer of major stature. Her qualities are many and varied and she's truly a singer of major calibre. Her voice is full and expressive, her phrasing smooth, and her ability to improvise in good taste around a melody places her high on a creative level. Featuring two original albums, 1956's 'Hot Cargo' which helped to launch her career and 1958's self titled 'Ernestine Anderson' which was Ernestine's first full length U.S. recording session. Includes one of the great old jazz tunes "Runnin' Wild" plus superb songs like "Azure Te" and "Mad About The Boy" and "Autumn In New York".
