Timeless Melodies from the Parlor Song Era on One-Step 180g Vinyl LP!

After eight albums for a variety of labels, New York-born Alexis Cole joined audiophile specialist Chesky Records in 2014 for A Kiss in the Dark, which showcased the company's groundbreaking binaural recording technique.

Capturing Cole and her band (guitarist Saul Rubin, saxophonist and clarinet player Dan Block, bassist Pat O'Leary, and drummer Phil Stewart) live using a single hi-res microphone, A Kiss in the Dark found the velour-voiced singer taking a deep dive into ancient jazz history by putting a contemporary spin on songs mainly from the late 1910s and early 1920s. Ranging from finger-clicking swingers ("Chicago, That Toddlin' Town") and evocative blues ("Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out") to dreamy ballads ("Indian Summer").

A Kiss in the Dark shows why the golden-voiced Alexis Cole belongs to America's highest tier of jazz vocalists. The album is reissued on 180g One Step Pressing Vinyl LP.

The sound is spacious, the singing natural. More please.
