À propos de cet audio
Singer Etta Jones was an understated, underrated American jazz artist best known for her soulful, blues-influenced style. Words and lyrics meant a great deal to her, and she brought a deeply felt gravitas to every song she performed, which made her shows and recordings all the more captivating. Whether it was a traditional 12-bar blues or a Broadway show tune, she sang with an unaffected sincerity that defied traditional notions of interpretation.
As part of the Peabody Award-winning documentary series “Jazz Profiles,” this episode about Etta Jones was produced in 1997 by Joan Merrill and narrated by the show host Nancy Wilson.
The “Jazz Profiles” shows – nearly 200 of them – are part of the Tim Owens Jazz & Broadcast Collection at the University of North Texas Music Library. In a partnership with Tim and UNTML, we’ve picked a handful of noteworthy shows to share with you. You can find more “Jazz Profiles” shows at the UNT Music Library’s Jazz Syndicate (www.library.unt.edu/jazzsyndicate), and learn more about 32 Bar Blues' clothing collection and commitment to the arts at 32barblues.com
