Info zu Black Coffee

Die Jazzsängerin Louise Rogers hat nach und nach mit ihrem schönen, polierten Ton, ihrer klaren Diktion, ihrer makellosen Intonation und ihrem tadellosen musikalischen Können die Herzen der Zuhörer erobert. Ihr natürlicher, ungezwungener Vortrag erinnert an Sängerinnen wie Peggy Lee, Ella Fitzgerald, Chris Connor und Doris Day.

BLACK COFFEE ist ihre fünfte Aufnahme, auf der Rogers eine entspanntere und zurückhaltendere Herangehensweise bei 12 Liedern an den Tag legt, darunter die Standards "Ain't Misbehavin'" und "Gentle Rain" und eine bewegende Version von "Alice In Wonderland" sowie Popnummern wie Peggy Lees Hit "Black Coffee" von 1956.
