The Exciting Voice of Toni Arden - My World is You

Here is what is I believe to be the third in a three-part private label series on a GPRT Records featuring compositions of Gladys Shelley and production of a Ben Arrigo.   (see Vinnie Knight and Carrie Smith)

Like the other two entries, you have to lighten up a bit to be able to enjoy some moments.  At times, however, its wonderful and timeless.  Some of this album reminds me of "My Way" era Sinatra, if that helps.   Hope you like it, it cost me $80. Just kidding.

Vinnie Knight - Doin' Things for Her

Somehow I got my hands on this, part of a series of albums featuring the compositions of Gladys Shelley.   The 3 volume series also includes Carrie Smith's Only You Can Do It and Toni Arden's My World Is You.  They were all released on "GPRT Records" and produced by a Ben Arrigo.  This is great stuff in my opinion.

Carrie Smith - Only You Can Do It (1983, GPRT Records)

This is just such an amazing album in my opinion.   Smith had a wonderful strength to her voice, and the arrangements have a great blues-jazz sensibility.

Michael Franks - Tiger in the Rain (FLAC, Bittorrent, Rapishare, Mediafire)

Tiger in the Rain (wikilink) is a 1979 album from the jazz singer Michael Franks. I present it here because of the enormous amount of great musicians on the record, including Kenny Barron and Ron Carter. It's good stuff, even for those not into "vocal jazz".
