A 17 January US release date is planned for the remastered Norma Winstone and John Taylor 1988 album In Concert reissued last year in the UK.
Listen before release to their bittersweet deftly swinging treatment of Leonard Bernstein’s Lucky To Be Me. The track also after the Guildhall audience applause has Norma Winstone joking with a member of the audience about the pronunciation of Bernstein's name and then an introduction to Steve Swallow's 'Ladies In Mercedes' that Winstone wrote words for.
Other tracks are Egberto Gismonti's 'Cafe' with lyrics by Winstone, Ralph Towner's 'The Glide,' Dave Brubeck's 'In Your Own Sweet Way,' Monk's 'Round Midnight' segueing into Lionel Hampton's 'Midnight Sun,' John Taylor's 'Coffee Time' and Towner's 'Celeste' featuring lyrics by Winstone. The issuing label for US release is Sunnyside.
