The duo of pianist Bill Sample and vocalist Darlene Cooper create cozy and casual recitations of standards on this relaxed album. Cooper sings like she’s world wise, breathy and personal on “I Wish I’d Met You” and reclines over Samples soft hands on “The Nearness of You”. Sample is late night salooned on “Save Your Love For Me” and the two reflect well on “Lush Life”. Sample chimes in on “It Had To Be You” and their own “Impossible Love” or “Don’t Know ow To Love You” are right around the corner from Tin Pan Alley. Vintage voices.
