Introduced on an afternoon program of lesser lights, she so impressed the meager audience there that she was brought back for a full house on a night program. She repeated her success and Columbia Records signed her immediately. Her main assets were her warmly appealing timbre, good range and secure time, all amply demonstrated in these two albums made in 1961-2. On Out of the Blue, a record with memorable contributions by soloists Bob Brookmeyer, Clark Terry, Nick Travis and Jim Hall, she is backed mostly by Bill Finegans arrangements. On Live at 30th Street, Carol sings great jazz in an intimate studio atmosphere, on which her natural talents and ebullient musical personality shine through to a set of stellar standards. In 1963 she said: I want to be one of these persons who have been around a long time, Mission accomplished, her long career hasembraced the countrys top clubs and regular appearances on TV. Despite a period in the mid 60s when she was groomed for pop by Columbia Records, she is considered today one of the finest jazz singers around. Nat Hentoff wrote in 2004: With all the talk today about new jazz singers, none comes even close to Carol Sloane. This is what jazz is all about. TRACKLIST: 01.
