Ernestine Anderson and Houston Person

Veteran singer Ernestine Anderson got her start playing rhythm & blues before anyone called it rock & roll, but quickly opted for the sophistication of big bands led by Lionel Hampton and Quincy Jones. Nightlife, a new live album recorded at Dizzy's just over a year ago, shows that Anderson's forged a potent bond with seasoned sax man Houston Person; more evidence awaits you during this celebratory stint.
