LONG AS YOU'RE LIVING - THE SONGS & POETRY OF OSCAR BROWN JR. - - - click here to listen to the songs on this BISTRO AWARD-WINNING album
The breadth of the Oscar Brown Jr. catalog of music is practically unknown today. Linda has taken this music - considered part of the jazz repertoire and made it universal in its appeal.
“This album is almost like a collaboration. Linda’s voice is definitely one of the stars of the show, yet Oscar’s personality is ever present. His lyrical intent is never lost or buried even as Linda manages to artistically sit by his side. She is a singer of great ability. The organic strength of her voice is deftly wielded so that she can handle complicated passages without any dead spaces being created from having to rein back.” - Maxwell Chandler, jazzreview.com
