Carol Ventura

Here is a beautiful song by the little known but very good singer of the sixties Carol Ventura, who deserves to be rediscovered (she made only 2 LPs). 

Releasing her debut long-play Carol!, the label hoped she would "crack the pop-jazz field". "We're going after the crowd which digs Henry Mancini and Barbra Streisand," Bob Kirstein, Western sales manager for Prestige, told Billboard. The magazine reviewed the album, writing: "Here's a singer to watch. After a start a few years ago as a rock 'n' roller, Carol now seems to have developed a pattern that makes her a singer of high style. Working with arrangements by Benny Golson, Miss Ventura has come forth with a set of unusual quality."

Enjoy!
