The Cool Voice of Rita Reys
We all thought that Rita Reys was invincible - and maybe she thought that herself as well... But The European First Lady Of Jazz passed away... I will always remember the funny occasion when I accidentally walked in to a room of a friends' home in Breukelen when all of a sudden Rita Reys was standing there in her undies. :-)
We had a big laugh about it - she was really funny. Later I saw her performing on Nijenrode Jazz Nights and other parties. Always perfect and a great time.
Thanks Rita.
My favourite album is from 1957 - with Art Blakey:
