Easy to Love is a most appropriate title for the recording debut of vocalist Kate McGarry. Right from the voice-bass intro on “My Heart Stood Still”, you know that this is to be no run-of-the-mill progam. An immediate reaction may be to notice the exceptional diction and enunciation and the distinctive phrasing that McGarry demonstrates. It’s not surprising to learn that her greatest influences have been such unique stylists as Jon Hendricks, Betty Carter, and Mark Murphy, as well as the great lady of jazz vocals, Ella Fitzgerald.

I would like to tell you that I “discovered Kate McGarry by falling into such-and-such a cozy bar (on a freezing night, of course) where she was performing, generating a whole ton of warmth and musical involvement …”But that isn’t quite the truth: Ace drummer, Paul Kreibich, directed me to visit LUNARIA’s Santa Monica jazz-bar and restaurant on a balmy night where I would be able to hear what he felt was heaven-sent music for our label: Kate McGarry singing with her trio comprised of Karen Hammack (piano), Eric Von Essen (bass), and himself, Paul, on drums.I did so visit Lunaría’s, and, though I planned to stay for an hour or so, I was captivated, enchanted, blown-away (etc, etc), and stayed long after closing time, while Kate and the trio did a whole extra set for me! What follows on this album is the result, I believe, of musical magic and bewitching magnetism. A point of interest about the recording: Of course, I placed both Kate’s voice and Eric’s bass in the stereo centre, but chose to put Kare’s piano mainly on the left side and Paul’s drums mainly on the right – truthfully it was an experiment, which I believe came off well … Presenting … Kate Mcgarry. – David Manley, Calífornia, 1992
