BILLIE REMEMBERED
(Inner City 1004)

No Regrets
Did I Remember?
What a Night, What a Moon, What a Boy
I wished on the moon
I cried for you
These Foolish Things
What a little moonlight can do
Reaching for the moon
Too Hot for Words
If you were mine
Miss Brown to you

Sweet and Lowdown
Stars Fell on Alabama

A Woman's intuition
Down with love
East of the sun
Don't blame me
Sugar
Ghost of a chance
Manhattan
A hundred years from today
Down with love*
I've got the world on a string*
Stormy weather*
Come rain or come shine*
My shining hour*
I've got a right to sing the blues*

The band backing up Stephanie includes Hod O’Brien on piano, Randy Sandke on trumpet, Tom Hamilton on tenor, John Jensen on trombone, Hovie Collins on rhythm guitar, Steve Gilmore on bass and Bill Goodwin on drums. The arrangements attempt to approximate the originals and were prepared by Hod O’Brien and Stephanie. The booklet contains descriptions of each selection with an explanation of some of the techniques used by each vocalist whose style is being interpreted. More than anything else, this CD further reveals the wide range of technique that Stephanie Nakasian is capable of. To a great extent, she captures the feeling and manner of each of the great vocalists that she has chosen to present.
