A mature sensuality where jazz and soul intersect
Esther Phillips combines her husky voice with a sophisticated fusion sound.
The gorgeous arrangements characteristic of the Kudu label further enhance her powerful vocals. The exquisite balance of jazz technique and R&B passion coexist, creating a dramatic portrayal of the urban nightscape.
