HOT’CHA CHICKS…Sweet Megg & Ricky Alexander: I’m In Love Again, Tatiana Eva-Marie & Terry Waldo: I Double Dare You - Jazz Weekly
Music created about 100 years ago still sounds fresh with these two ladies…
Husky voiced Sweet Megg joins with reed man Rickey Alexanders team for a collection of two stepping pre-swing era dandies. The two have fun on a vocal duet on a cozy “Last Night On the Back Porch” while Megg has a twinkle in her eye with the plunging brass on “Squeeze Me”. Some Bechet-inspired soprano sax adds to “Right Or Wrong” and Alexander’s reeds swoon on “Angry” with some relaxed Lester Young tones on the relaxed “Foolin’ Myself” has wide fingers as he strides through “Ragged But Right”. 78s spun just right.
