Catherine Russell (born 1956)
https:/
Harlem on My Mind (2017), Alone Together (2019) がグラミーの Best Jazz Vocal Album にノミネートされたキャサリン・ラッセルですが、思いのほか長いキャリアを持ったヴェテランになります。
やや古典的に感じる、オーソドックスなスタイルで聴かせるその素晴らしい重量感のあるスイング感、奇をてらわない素直な、しかし戦慄感を感じさせるフェイク、そして彼女が取り上げる曲に見られる選曲眼、どれをとっても現代を代表する歌姫と言えるでしょう。
彼女は Background vocalist としての長いキャリアがあります。
最初は Walter Becker と Donald Fagen のデュオ・ロックグループの Steely Dan に誘われ1992年頃から活動を始めました。
そして次は David Bowie の backup singer として活動をつづけました。
彼女は2004年頃に、彼女のビジネスパートナーであり、のちに夫になる Paul Kahn にソロアルバムを作るように提案され、初のソロアルバム Cat (2006) をリリースしました。
その後は、数年ごとにアルバムを発表しながらジャズ・シンガーとしての活動を続けています。

かなり怖い内容の歌ですね。
Miss Liza Johnson and her man
Had a falling out
He said go get someone else if you can
I'm gone without a doubt
Things got tough and he came back
Last night at nine o'clock
He tried his key in the old front door
But the key wouldn't fit the lock
He pushed it in, and turned it 'round and 'round
And took it out
And just as he was 'bout to try again
He heard Miss Liza shout
You got the right key, but the wrong keyhole
I couldn't get along with you to save my soul
Yesterday I went down to the hardware store
And put another lock on my front door
I got a new man who is better than you
He starts his lovin' where you get through
So take my tip, honey, leave my door
Because your key don't fit in my lock no more
I say you got the right key
But you're working on the wrong keyhole

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Nemo
"I Let a Song Go Out of My Heart" の作曲者です。
キャサリン・ラッセルはものすごーくポピュラー音楽的に歌っています。
Tear a star from out the sky and the sky feels blue
Tear a petal from the rose and the rose weeps too
Take your heart away from mine and mine will surely break
My life is yours to take, so please keep the spark awake
Would you take the wings from birds so that they can't fly?
Would you take the ocean's roar and leave just a sigh?
All this, your heart won't let you do
This is what I beg of you
Don't take your love from me
All this, your heart won't let you do
This is what I beg of you
Don't take your love from me
Don't take your love from me

You're my thrill
You do something to me
You send chills right through me
When I look at you
'Cause you're my thrill
You're my thrill
How my pulse increases
I just go to pieces
When I look at you
'Cause you're my thrill
Hmmm-nothing seems to matter
Hmmm-here's my heart on a silver platter
Where's my will
Why this strange desire
That keeps morning higher
When I look at you
I cann't keep still
You're my thrill

I want a man, is that so wrong
I need someone to belong to
He don't have to be Society
Whatever he is, is good enough for me
I want a man, sis that so strange
This lonely life is drivin' me insane
I never had a shoulder to lean on and cry
I'm strictly on my own
It's either do or die
So if you should see someone for me
Send him around, my time is free Tell him you know a gal
Who just needs a pal
I want a man, is that so wrong
I need someone to belong to
He don't have to be Society
Whatever he is, is good enough for me
I want a man, is that so strange
This lonely life is drivin' mi insane
I never had a man to send me to town
I ain't on the make
Just wanna settle down
So if you should see someone for me

I want a man, is that so wrong
I need someone to belong to
He don't have to be Society
Whatever he is, is good enough for me
I want a man, sis that so strange
This lonely life is drivin' me insane
I never had a shoulder to lean on and cry
I'm strictly on my own
It's either do or die
So if you should see someone for me
Send him around, my time is free Tell him you know a gal
Who just needs a pal
I want a man, is that so wrong
I need someone to belong to
He don't have to be Society
Whatever he is, is good enough for me
I want a man, is that so strange
This lonely life is drivin' mi insane
I never had a man to send me to town
I ain't on the make
Just wanna settle down
So if you should see someone for me
Send him around, my time is free
Tell him you understand

[Verse 1]
Talk to me, talk to me
Mmm, I love the things you say
Talk to me, talk to me
In your own sweet gentle way
[Verse 2]
Let me hear, tell me, dear
Tell me ooh-you-ooh love me so
Talk to me, talk to me
Tell me what I want to know
[Bridge]
The many ways you speak of love
I've heard before
But it sounds so good every time
Please say the part I love just once more
Darling, I'm so glad you're mine
[Verse 3]
Talk to me, talk to me
Hold me close, whisper low
Talk to me, baby, can't you see?
Darling, I, I love you so (I love you so)
[Bridge]
Oh, the many ways you speak of love
I've heard before
But it sounds so good every time
Please say the part I love, just once more
Darling, I'm so glad you're mine
Whoa-oh
[Verse 3 repeated]
Talk to me, talk to me
Hold me close, whisper low
Talk to me, baby, can't you see?

Pearl Woods はリロイ・カークランドとコンビを組んで "Something's Got a Hold on Me" 他いくつかの曲を書いているようです。
Dinah Washington は言わずと知れた blues, R&B の大御所なのですが、ピアニストでもあり、作曲に加わったのかもしれません。
Leroy Kirkland, Pearl Woods のコンビはエタ・ジェイムスの曲も書いているのですが、その場合もエタの名前が作曲者の中に入っています。
Like one more time if our love ever grows cold
And this new thrill somehow grows old
Oh, when forever for us is no more
Don't tell our friends, baby
Let me be the first to know
When you no longer care
When my dreams, you no longer share
Tell me before it starts to show
You don't have to be ashamed
Just let me be the first to know
You love me now, I feel kind of sure
Kind of sure somehow
But in this game of romance
Forever, forever is a million to one chance
Ooh Lord, when my kiss becomes an everyday thing
And my voice becomes just a busy ring
Let me put on my disguise before you go break my heart
But leave my pride
I said, please, please, please
Lord, Lord, Lord, please, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, let me be the first to know

彼女自身の名前で出したCat (2006) に続く2枚目のアルバムになります。
これまでに聴いてきた Harlem On My Mind (2015), Alone Together (2018) につながる、彼女の音楽スタイルや選曲が一連のものであることが、このアルバムを聴くとよく判ります。
しかし彼女のアルバムはいいお値段になっているものが多いですね。
それだけ流通量が少ない（つまり売れなかった）ということになるのでしょうか。
コレクターでもなければおいそれと手を出せないようなお値段になっています。

There's so little time and so much to do
There's so little time for dreams to come true
Many a ship to sail, many a magic land
Many a moonlit trail, many a road to walk hand in hand
There's songs of love we never have sung
Let's not waste one hour, the night is still young
Mama, a lifetime's not enough for the love I have for you
There's so little time, so much to do

But making love took too much of my...

I know a man in Georgia, I know a man in Maine
I know a man in Frisco who wants me to change my name
I know a man in Bammie who calls me little dove
but none of then ain't in it when it comes to makin' love
Cause, my old daddy's got a brand new way to love
My old daddy's got skin like a silken glove
My pretty Papa is so easy to handle
Not another man holds a candle
My old daddy's get a pace, and can't no other man take his place
My old daddy's got a brand new way to walk
My old daddy's got a nice line of baby talk
He makes more love than he's ever made
He thinks I'm the leader of a big parade
Yes, my old daddy's got a brand new way to love

I'd be glad to stay right here with you, fact is, that is what I'd planned to
But from that fool look on your face, I think I'll head South to a warmer place
Thought I'd given you the best of me, I'd be glad to share the rest of me
But there's a chill in your embrace, so I'd better head South to a warmer place
Seems like yesterday we could kiss and build a fire, but now it's ten below
Seems like yesterday nights were warm with love's desire, but now it feels like snow
I don't mind a cold day now and then, but this long deep freeze has done me in
And it's too late to plead your case, so I'm goin' South to a warmer place

Make the stars swing low
And the world roll over
Thrill me
Do it now or never
Nothing lasts forever

influence for Nina Simone
You say you've got the finest chick in the land
You say, she told you she wanted you and you alone
Well you better get hip to that fancy chick
She's on the run, she is on so slick
You been bragging about your chick
To Ned, Fred and Dick
But from what I saw last night
You better watch yourself, Bub
You say she's the type
That you want to take for your wife
But from what I saw last night
You better watch yourself, Bub
You send her roses her twice a week
And all you get is a peck on the cheek
Wake up! Get up! Get hip to yourself
Tell her there will be some mess
Or else her name is Tess
She takes all your weekly pay
Says she hates tat guy name Ray
But from what i saw last night
You better watch yourself, Bub

Now they all rave for my company
I knew someday they would fall for me cause I got that thing
No one knows what it's all about until they get that thing
It seems as though all the wold is out looking for that thing
It's a funny old thing, that's without a doubt
It makes everyone on earth want to scream and shout
Why I wouldn't whisper, I'd tell it out

Like a catfish loves the water
Like a pork hog loves the corn
Like the bees they love the honey
Like an old dog loves a bone
I love my baby, I love my baby
I love my baby and I don't care who knows
Like a boil weevil loves the cotton
Like the dark cloud loves the rain
Like a good man loves his woman
Like a good gal loves her man
I love my baby, I love my baby
I love my baby and I don't care who knows
I may be a little bit Jealous
You know the reason why
If I don't love my baby
I declare to the Maker and I hope to die
Like a baby loves his candy
Like a prospector loves his gold
Like a hound dog love a rabbit
Like a gopher loves his hole

Rachelle Gamiez (accordion)
I'm a sucker for a broken nose
Sleepy eyes and Roman toes
Slim hips and a big strong smile
Soft lips and a big strong smile
Soft lips and a style that's kinda wild
He's been around the block and back again
Lived to tell a tale or two
Not what you'd call a perfect gentleman
But he's got a heart that's true
I'm just a city kid with a sentimental streak ← 注目
And a weakness for ruined reputation
Wouldn't try to advertise for wise guy
But it takes a taste of trouble to inspire my fascination
And he's got me so, can't seem to tear myself away
My heart would hurt if he should ever go
But I believe he's here to stay
Cause I'm a sucker for a broken nose

If you bring it back baby
Everything's gonna be alright
I been oh so lonely
Cause I want you only
And when you bring it back baby
I won't sing the blues no more
I love you like you love me
We make a real fine pair
But ain't nothin' shakin'
When the dawn starts breakin'
With me over here and you over there
Bring it back
Let's get together
Just like birds of a feather
If you bring it back baby
Everything's gonna be alright
I love you like you love me
We make a real fine pair
But ain't nothin' shakin'

I'm shooting high,
Got my eye on a star in the sky,
Shooting high.
I'll never stop till I get to the top
Tell me why, shooting high.
You know it's you I'm after
You're my lucky star
I'm on a rainbow rafter
Climbing up to where you are
I'll have the time, it's a climb
But I'll make it `cos I'm
Shooting high.
Every morning, when I raise my blind
To greet another day
I begin by making up my mind
That it's my lucky day.
I'm shooting high,
Got my eye on a star in the sky,
Shooting high.
I'll never stop till I get to the top

Mmm, aged and mellow!
There's nothing a greenhorn can do for me
Cause my older daddy suits me to a T
Now I like my men like I like my whiskey
Ooh, aged and mellow!
Now listen youngster, be on your way
Don't bother me til a later day

I've got some good news, honey
An invitation to the Darktown Ball
It's a very swell affair
All the highbrows will be there
I'll wear my high silk hat and frock tail coat
You wear your Paris gown and your new silk shawl
There ain't no doubt about it, babe
We'll be the best dressed in the hall
I'll be down to get you in a taxi, honey
You better be ready about half past eight
Now dearie, don't be late
I wanna be there when the band starts playing
Remember when we get there, honey
The two-steps, we're gonna have 'em all
Goin' to dance off both my shoes
When they play the "Jelly Roll Blues"
Tomorrow night, at the Darktown Strutters' Ball
We'll meet our hightoned neighbours
An exhibition of the "Baby Dolls"
And each one will do their best
Just to outclass all the rest
There'll be dancers from ev'ry foreign land
The classic buck and wing and the wooden clog
We'll win that fifty dollar prize
When we step out and "Walk The Dog"
I'll be down to get you in a taxi, honey
You better be ready about half past eight

彼女の母君は Carline Ray で、Lucille ではありません。
[Verse 1]
Dreaming, sentimental
That's the way she makes you feel
She is such an angel
That's my darling, Lucille
[Verse 2]
Lucille
You make my day begin
Whatever mood I'm in
Depends on you, Lucille
[Verse 3]
It's real
The way you make me feel
What is this mad appeal
That make my heart a steal?
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how could I ever let you know?
How much I love and need you so?
[Chorus]
Lucille
Please keep this flame aglow
My heart is burning so
For you, just you, Lucille
[Interlude]
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how could I ever let you know?
How much I love and need you so?
[Chorus]
Lucille
Please keep this flame aglow
My heart is burning so
For you, just you
Lucille

I can't conceal
Love that I feel,
When I met you it began, baby!

Just for a day,
I nearly die of the blues, baby!
It's no lie,
Can't deny
You got me under your thumb, yes yes!
Just let me cling to you till judgement day,
Ah baby, let me cling!
I never thought I'd love you, love you this way,
You beautiful thing, yes
Honestly hon',
No other one
Can ever thrill me like you, baby!
Call me dove,
Give me love, give me love, baby!
You got me under your thumb, yeah!
Ah, it's what you call thumb music!
Aha!
What's that baby?
Speak to me slowly and distinctly!
Yes!

"After The Lights Go Down Low"
作曲・作詞: Phil Belmonte, Allen White and Leroy C. Lovett
作曲年 1955
たくさんの録音が残され、スタンダード曲になっています。
歌詞の和訳は見当たりませんでしたので、英詞をじっくりと眺めてください。
1955年あたりのギリギリの上品な表現になっていますね。
After the lights go down low, baby, you know
There'll be no reason for teasin' me so
And when the dancin' is through and folks will be few
I'll be here sittin' with no one but you
And I'll be needin' you so after the lights go down low
I wanna hold you, squeeze you as tight as I can
I'd like to kiss you, please you and make you understand
And when you thrill me, you fill me with love so divine
Together we can have a good time
After the lights go down low, baby, you know
There'll be no reason for teasin' me so
And we can cuddle up near without any fear
'Cause I've got some sweet talk that you want to hear
And I'll be needin' you so after the lights go down low
After the lights go down low, baby, you know
There'll be no reason for teasin' me so
And when the dancin' is through and folks will be few
I'll be here sittin' with no one but you
And I'll be needin' you so after the lights go down low
I wanna hold you, squeeze you as tight as I can
I'd like to kiss you, please you and make you understand
And when you thrill me, you fill me with love so divine
Together we can have a good time
After the lights go down low, baby, you know
There'll be no reason for teasin' me so
And we can cuddle up near without any fear
'Cause I've got some sweet talk that you want to hear
And I'll be needin' you so after the lights go down low

"I'm Sticking With You Baby"
作曲・作詞: Henry Glover, Rudolph Toombs
作曲年 1955
作曲年当時のブルースともロックともつかない曲で、かなりつまらない歌詞がついています。
Close as ham is to a country hog
Close as a collar on a dog
Close as the feathers on a chicken's back
Tight as a rail on a railroad track
I'm stickin' to you baby
I'm sticken' to you baby
Like cold on ice,white on rice
I'll be with you all the time
Close as the nose is on my face
Close as two horses in a dead heat race
Close as the brand on my Sunday hat
I'm tellin' you baby that's a natural fact
Listen to me baby as I tell you once more
I'll be snug as a rug on the living room floor
close as the paper on a bedroom wall
close as I'll be when I hear you call

"Strange As It Seems"
作曲: Fats Waller
作詞: Andy Razaf
作曲年 1932 ← 自信がありません
ファッツ・ウォーラーが数多く書いた佳曲の一つですね。
I believed that you were free
and I could win your heart
but I find we only can be friends
tho there is no hope for me
and you and I must part
still this is the way the story ends tho I know why
I wasted my time
to lo-o-o-ve you
strange as it seems
deep in my heart
I do-o-o strange as it seems
I cant stop thinking
o-o-o-f you
ready for dreams
dreams that will not
come true
bridge
one nite of bliss
one stolen kiss
is haunt-ing-me-ye-et
why should it be
unlucky me
who now must forget
we ever met Tho you can be
nothing to me
I wa-a-a-nt you
strange as it seems
deep in my heart
I do-o-o-o

"Public Melody Number One"
作曲: Harold Arlen
作詞: Ted Koehler
作曲年 1937
この曲の情報がほとんど見つからないのですが、ルイ・アームストロングが1937年に録音しています。
彼女の父君 Luis Russell が長年ルイ・アームストロング楽団の編曲者として活躍していたので、彼女はこの曲を取り上げたのかもしれません。
Lock your door, draw your blind
You're in danger of the strangest kind
Grab a train, board a plane
Speed wouldn't even be a safety zone
You're on the spot, don't think you're not
You're gonna lose all the rhythm you got
Let me tell you why, then you're on your own
There's a new kind of enemy on the loose today
It's a ghost of a melody when it comes your way
You had it sneak ride up upon you
And kinda puts the finger on you
So look out for public melody number one
If it should be a looker it reads you face to face
And your feet start tugging it all around the place
Don't try to call out Hoover's G men
They're just a lot of ABC men
So look out for public melody number one
Frank is a bundle of joy
Jesse James is the teacher's pet
Gotti's gun is only a toy
Compared to notes shot for a hot collet
So get undercover, rhythm rascals run
Hide out until it passes, he's out to get the masses
So look out for public melody number one
Frank is a bundle of joy
Jesse James is the teacher's pet
Gotti's gun is only a toy
Compared to notes shot for a hot collet
So look out, all you rhythm rascals
Hide out until it passes, he's out to get the masses
So look out for public melody number one
