Miss Hawkins sings with a great deal of enthusiasm. On ballads, rhythm numbers or novelties, she invariably creates contact with her audience and mesmerizes them. She unleashes a finely spun vocal line that, along with her vibrant voice, leaves no area unexplored in these moody evocations of love. And along the way, Hank Jones’ quartet feeds Dolores with a warm, tasty and balanced base, sparked on some tracks by a trumpet and saxophone solos. freshsoundrecords
