Review by Addie Gerritts

Ernie Andrews' self-titled album is a timeless masterpiece that showcases the legendary jazz vocalist's incredible range and versatility. With a career spanning over six decades, Andrews' soulful voice and dynamic phrasing continue to captivate audiences around the world.

The album opens with the upbeat and swinging "Jump for Joy," which sets the tone for what is to come. Andrews' rich and powerful vocals are front and center, backed by a tight band that includes some of the finest musicians in the business.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "I Only Have Eyes for You," a classic ballad that Andrews infuses with a sense of longing and tenderness. His voice soars over the lush orchestration, and the result is a truly moving performance.

Another highlight is "All Blues," a bluesy number that allows Andrews to demonstrate his incredible improvisational skills. His scatting is nothing short of breathtaking, and the band's tight interplay makes for a thrilling listening experience.

About Ernie Andrews

Jazz, blues & pop singer was born on December 25, 1927 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Died February 21, 2022 Ernie Andrews has managed to be both popular and underrated throughout his lengthy career. After his family moved to Los Angeles, he sang in a church choir, and while still attending high school had a few hits for the G&G label. Billy Eckstine and Al Hibbler were early influences and, after reaching maturity, Andrews was somewhat in the shadow of Joe Williams (who has a similar style). Andrews recorded for Aladdin, Columbia, and London in the late '40s, spent six years singing with the Harry James Orchestra, and cut a couple of big band dates for GNP/Crescendo during 1958-1959. Despite his unchanging style, Andrews was mostly in obscurity during the 1960s and '70s, just making a couple of albums for Dot during 1965-1966. A 1980 Discovery date found him in excellent form, and in the '80s, he was rediscovered. Andrews recorded with the Capp/Pierce Juggernaut, Gene Harris' Superband, Jay McShann, and with the Harper Brothers, in addition to making a few sets in the 1990s for Muse, and later High Note. He is also prominent in the documentary: Blues for Central Avenue.
