James Taylor - Cabaret Scenes

Marilyn Maye: By Request

It was a treat to see the “Grande Dame of Cabaret” on tour.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Abernathy’s beautiful resonant tenor; its warm timbre added luster to each of his offerings.

Her lyric interpretations demonstrate delicacy and range.

Dignity and purpose shone through Ann Hampton Callaway’s talent.

She moved through her songs with sustained energy and a flow that seemed totally spontaneous.

This two-hour cabaret homage to the 1960s had everything a baby boomer could want.

Immense warmth and quiet charm.

An excellent show was made more intriguing by the evidence of new facets of Carole J. Bufford’s ample talent.

Muscular vocals emerged as jazz fusion; rhythmic dexterity offered textured arrangements.

He has become a star.
