Mary Osborne & Marian McPartland • Now's The Time

Review by Scott Yanow:

On this release from Marian McPartland's Halcyon label, the veteran pianist heads a straightahead all-female quintet that also features the excellent guitarist Mary Osborne, altoist Vi Redd, bassist Lynn Milano and drummer Dottie Dodgion. For the live performance they play eight familiar standards including "Now's the Time," "In a Mellotone," "I'll Remember April" and "But Beautiful." This hard-to-find LP is most valuable for its solos by Osborne and Redd who both made too few records through the years.

Reseña de Scott Yanow:

En este lanzamiento del sello Halcyon de Marian McPartland, la veterana pianista encabeza un quinteto femenino que también cuenta con la excelente guitarrista Mary Osborne, el altoista Vi Redd, el bajista Lynn Milano y la baterista Dottie Dodgion. Para la actuación en vivo tocan ocho estándares familiares, incluyendo "Now's the Time", "In a Mellotone", "I'll Remember April" y "But Beautiful". Este LP difícil de encontrar es muy valioso por los solos de Osborne y Redd, que hicieron muy pocos discos a lo largo de los años.
