About "It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) (Live At The Great American Music Hall, San Francisco / 1987)" by Carmen McRae
McRae and Carter turn 'It Don't Mean A Thing' into a joyful, swinging argument. The live duet crackles with competitive gleeβeach singer pushing the other into wilder, more exuberant territory. It's jazz as play, the tension purely electric, the release pure delight.
