The double bass made a comparatively late arrival to solo status in jazz; due to its' unwieldly nature and obstinately low range its use was often restricted to novelty effects and comedy turns a la Saint-Saens Carnival of the Animals.
She mixed breezy original tunes with such standards as "I Get A Kick Out Of You" and "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" the latter confirming she can convince in delivering deeper emotions not just light tunes about food sugar and dating.
