Better Than Anything With The Junior Mance Trio

Irene Kral

This CD reissues a formerly rare Irene Kral album (she only recorded two albums during 1960-1973). Joined by pianist Junior Mance, bassist Bob Cranshaw, and drummer Mickey Roker , Kral was already a delightful singer. Best are her versions of "Better Than Anything," "The Meaning of the Blues," "It's a Wonderful World," "Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry," and "Nobody Else But Me." Recommended.
