RELEASE INFORMATION

When I Look In Your Eyes was recorded at Bennett Studios with a New York City jazz dream team led by producer Suzi Reynolds, known for her productions with Teri Thornton, Jerome Richardson, Rufus Reid and many other top jazz artists. The CD's line-up includes Rufus Reid, Roni Ben-Hur, Lee Musiker, Leroy Williams, Steve Kroon, Chris Byars (leading a burning horn section,) and the late-great pianist John Hicks, who shines here, on what sadly turned out to be one of his last studio projects. Liner notes by WBGO radio host and author, Sheila Anderson, tell the whole story; When I Look In Your Eyes reveals London to have a vast emotional and musical range. As Anderson comments in her liner notes, Amy is among the elite female stylists, such as Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae, Nina Simone and Shirley Horn, who are not only great singers, but are also expert story tellers, accomplished pianists and composers. Amy also distinguishes herself by using her voice expertly as an instrument within, as opposed to on top of, a jazz ensemble.
