A few more

Something Line Reality
Love and Then
Sings Gershwin

All three Lyambiko.
Have all her lp's now. Have always enjoyed her voice and trio. Sonics are great as the German discs have a fine audiophile quality. Release label may have changed over time but it appears the studio is the same so recording quality is consistently top shelf. If you are fan of vocal jazz with excellent musicianship, I'll bet with a European bent, Jump in. Newer recordings lean to their own material while older ones are more in the vein of updated arrangements of jazz standards. Her stuff is highly recommended.

This 2L recording sounds incredible. Difficult music but the impeccable recording quality helps along way in getting to appreciate and eventually truly enjoy this piece of work.
I have always been a big fan of Reference Recordings and it is good to see another label being able to deliver the same kind of quality.
