Most music fans have a favorite song recorded by two-time GRAMMY award-winner Rita Coolidge¯ “Fever,” “We’re All Alone,” “One Fine Day,” “Higher & Higher,” “The Way You Do The Things You Do,” “Superstar,” and so many other memorable tracks that topped the charts from the 1970′s onward. It is perhaps due to Coolidge’s pop and rock pedigree that many of her fans are unaware of her longstanding affection for jazz.

When Coolidge signed with new management a few years back, she put recording a jazz album on the top of her wish list. “I loved the experience of making my first jazz record with Barbara Carroll in the 1970s,” Coolidge continues, “I’ve always wanted to get over to the jazz side and am deeply grateful that John Burk believed in me enough to help me make this recording.

And So Is Love, her heartfelt contribution to the jazz book, certainly gives back what she’s learned, but it presents something new, something fresh, as well: Rita Coolidge, jazz singer, ready to share (and perhaps even introduce) her prodigious talents with jazz fans.
