Helen Merrill, a vocal jazz luminary. Not just a magnificent American artist, but one of the greatest ballad singers of all time. This "complete recordings" set prepared by Olivier Julien looks back over the best years in her career, when she recorded with musicians who were all jazz legends - Earl Hines, Clifford Brown, Oscar Pettiford, Hank Jones and Bill Evans - and made superb albums in the company of producers and composers equally legendary, Quincy Jones, Gil Evans, Ennio Morricone et al.
