Review:

This is the one hundred seventy-sixth in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

Support live music – even when it’s streamed!

An excellent swing singer who enjoys digging up obscure gems from earlier decades, Maud Hixson is based in St. Paul, Minnesota although she has appeared in numerous shows and cabaret clubs in New York.

Hixon has a warm and friendly voice and clearly enjoys the vintage material that she interprets.

On her LiveStream from April 25, 2020, she is accompanied by the versatile pianist Rick Carlson who does a fine job of striding on the opening “Ain’t We Got Fun” and acting as a one-man rhythm section behind the singer throughout.

Among the songs that are explored are “Make It An Old Fashioned,” “No More Blues,” a vocalese version of “Cotton Tail” that is worthy of Annie Ross, “Daydream” (taken by Carlson as a piano solo), “I’ll Get By,” “You’re Out Of Here” (Lorraine Feather’s witty lyrics to Fats Waller’s “Harlem Drag”), “Early To Bed,” and a delightful version of “I’ll See You In My Dreams.”
