Review:

This is the ninety first in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

Support live music – even when it’s streamed!

Kate Baker, the widow of the late great guitarist Vic Juris, has a warm vocal style, swings gently, and does justice to lyrics while being a subtle improviser, sometimes sounding a little like Irene Kral.

Guitarist Dave Stryker, who has led more than 30 albums, has been a major jazz soloist since 1980, working with Jack McDuff, Stanley Turrentine, a group that he co-led with saxophonist Steve Slagle, Kevin Mahogany and with his own bands.

The team of Baker and Stryker creates beautiful music during this LiveStream from May 16, 2020 including performing such numbers as “I Thought About You,” an Alec Wilder song, a cooking rendition of “Secret Love,” and “My One And Only Love,”
