Nancy Wilson is in top form on this 1968 performance from the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. Her singing is passionate and spirited on all 14 tracks. Throughout this set, Wilson exacts the same kind of penetrating timbre and elegant, pointed elocution ... Full Descriptionas her idol Dinah Washington. Wilson is a master communicator, and each lyric--particularly the racially charged "Black is Beautiful" from "K.C. Medley"--shows off her unique and poignant vocal abilities.
While "Just Go" was first premiered during Wilson's stint at The Sands, most of this material can be heard on studio albums. Nonetheless, hearing Wilson belt it out live is an experience to treasure. "The Man That Got Away" is an uproarious number that features a burning hot big band arrangement (played at breakneck speed). Not surprisingly, Wilson eats this tune up, delivering one of her best performances of the night. The old chestnut "I Can't Get Started" highlights Wilson's ability to interpret the standard repertoire. From back to front this exciting set is filled with great musicianship, smart orchestrations, and above all else, stunning vocal performances.
