Vancouver Vintage: Kenny Colman

posted by Guy MacPherson

One of the most under-rated jazz singers has got to be Kenny Colman. Sure, he's slick but the man can flat-out swing. In conjunction with Melody Diachun's interview with Colman, Vancouver Vintage offers up a fine example of early KC (looking like a young Dave Barrett!). Here he is singing Bye Bye Blackbird along with Chris Gage on piano, Don Thompson on bass, and Terry Clarke on drums.

We don't have an exact date for this but it would be from some time in the early sixties.
