Mabel Mercer - A Singer's Singer
It's doubtful that her interpretive skills were ever more potent... Her gift for finding the absolute emotional center of a lyric is evident with every number... five songs into her set I was mesmerized. I've never listened to a singer with a better interpretive gift or a better knack for phrasing. This video is a very pleasurable viewing experience and I prescribe it as an ideal antidote to a stressful day.--Spectator MagazinePerhaps the greatest cabaret singer of all time.--King Features SyndicateMabel Mercer taught me everything I know--Frank Sinatra
