Day In The Life Of Lucky: Classical For Dog / Var - Day in the Life of Lucky: Classical for Dog - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

This is singer, arranger, composer, and educator Nanette Natal's fifth album for her Benyo Music tag. It culls selections from two of Natal's previous four albums, InchWild in ReverieInch and InchHi Fi Baby,Inch recorded in 1982 and 1986, respectively. All but two of the ten selections are Natal-composed originals, and an assorted playlist they do make. Her style utilizes influences covering a wide rhythmic range from Afro-Cuban to bop, swing, and the blues, as well as a couple of ballads by Natal. She is an extraordinary, multifaceted singer with a range like Sarah Vaughan's and an ability to sweep and swoop, stretch the words, and be at home with several types of singing styles.
