Call Me Lucky

A reissue of Alex Webb's 2016 album Call Me Lucky, a collection of outstanding original songs sung by an international cast of top jazz vocalists - including David McAlmont, China Mose, Liane Carroll, Jo Harrop and Sandra Nkake. It's also one man's stand for the continuing role of the song in jazz. The Great American Songbook has, over the decades, been thoroughly mined and few of today's pop composers offer the harmonic or lyrical sophistication which jazz vocalists cherish.
