"...a reminder of what true class and swing are all
about:
A Song for You,
from veteran vocalist Ernestine Anderson.
Here, backed by a fine and un-fussy quartet, she proves
that her six-decade career could not diminish her rich,
flexible voice, or her ability to mine the emotional truth in
every song; if anything, both are deeper today. Anderson is
joined in her explorations by the legendary tenor player
Houston Person,
whose bluesy obligatos are so empathic
that they're practically verbal." Dr. Judith Schlesinger
