Abbey Lincoln – That’s Him! (1957/2018) [Official Digital Download 24bit/44,1kHz]

“That’s Him!” is the second album by American jazz vocalist Abbey Lincoln featuring tracks recorded in 1957 for the Riverside label. Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars stating “even this early, she was already a major jazz singer with a style of her own”.

Singer Abbey Lincoln’s second recording, and her first for Riverside, finds her accompanied by quite an all-star roster: tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins, trumpeter Kenny Dorham, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Max Roach. Even this early, she was already a major jazz singer with a style of her own. Lincoln was careful from this point on to only interpret lyrics that she believed in. Her repertoire has a few superior standards (including several songs such as “I Must Have That Man!” and “Don’t Explain” that are closely associated with Billie Holiday) plus Oscar Brown, Jr.’s “Strong Man” and Phil Moore’s “Tender as a Rose”; she takes the latter unaccompanied. “Don’t Explain” is slightly unusual in that Paul Chambers is absent and Wynton Kelly makes an extremely rare appearance on bass. All three of Abbey Lincoln’s Riverside albums are well worth the listen. (Some reissues add alternate takes of “I Must Have That Man!” and “Porgy” to the original program.)
