At The Village Vanguard
Betty Carter
Released:
May 1970
Label:
Verve Records
An exciting, early '70s live session from the brilliant, unpredictable jazz vocalist. The definition of "acquired taste," Carter can sound like Nina Simone on Benzedrine on the lightning-quick, good-humored numbers, and personal and impassioned on the ballads ("The Sun Died" is a searing beauty.) Includes Carter's ironic version of the playfully sexist "Girl Talk."
