Album Notes

Take jazz legend and undisputed king of the vibes Lionel Hampton, add the silken voice of chanteuse Sylvia Bennett, let them loose in a home kitchen studio and let the magic begin.

But don’t stop there. Sprinkle in the brilliance of producer Hal Batt, combine big band sound as well as classic jazz, then mix it up with a complementary pop fizz.

What do you get? A diverse, yet cohesive recording that is a tribute to the late, great Lionel Hampton.

This once buried treasure has been unearthed, finished and released by Out of Sight Music, Inc. And now, fans of old and new fans-to-be can hear Hampton at his best on “There Will Never Be Another You.”

The story of how this recording came to be is a captivating one and is told on a historical DVD paired with the CD. It’s an all new, never before heard studio recording and never released DVD footage.

The 13-song recording includes title tribute song “There Will Never Be Another You,” along with instrumentals featuring Hampton’s masterful performances in “Cookin' in the Kitchen” (aka “Jumpin' At the Mudhole”) Beulah’s Boogie,” “It Might as Well be Spring,” “Redtop” and “Someday.”

Interspersed are four new songs featuring Bennett’s smooth and sexy blues side and enchanting upswing style complementing Lionel all the way. An innovative twist on standard “Bill Bailey” takes Hampton and Bennett into a delightfully different version. Lionel also shows you can teach an old dog new tricks as he grooves on a dance mix of “You Make My Heart Sing.” The jazz great also gets in his famous signature rapid two-finger piano playing in on a few numbers.

“There Will Never Be Another You” is the second album Hampton and Bennett recorded together. The first, “Sentimental Journey” on Atlantic Records was nominated for a Grammy.

This final work together is a tribute by Bennett to Hampton that showcases the beautiful blend of musical talents and a unique and cherished friendship. With the CD/DVD the world gets another glimpse of musical great Lionel Hampton. He should never be forgotten.

CHEMISTRY 1: the science that deals with the composition, structure, and properties of substances and of the changes they undergo. 2: a strong mutual attraction.
Webster defined this Dynamic Duo by his definition of CHEMISTRY. The CD, THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER YOU, along with the bonus DVD, redefines CHEMISTRY: 1: the blending of two exceptional musical talents who share in a mutual respect, one for the other, both professionally and as true friends.
This CD/DVD tribute ensemble, celebrates Lionel Hampton, a legendary jazz great; a musician possessing the essence of cool. His style and unprecedented sound, enhanced by, (CHEMISTRY) the Grammy nominated, soulful, sultry soloist, Sylvia Bennett, is a mesmerizing, unforgettable, great treasure, documenting vocal and big band musical perfection. A colletors must; a music lovers fantasy.

I recently purchased “There Will Never Be Another You” by Lionel Hampton featuring Sylvia Bennett . . . what an appropriate title for one of the greatest jazz musicians of all time . . . Lionel’s vibe playing on this album is unlike anything I have heard from him before . . . talk about unprecedented . . . there is only one word for this album . . . brilliant!  But it is impossible to acknowledge Lionel’s achievements without mentioning the sweet vocal contributions of the magnificently talented Sylvia Bennett!  Lionel and Sylvia have teamed up before on their Grammy nominated album “Sentimental Journey” . . . if you want to take another profound jazz journey with this duo, I highly recommend this new CD . . . I promise you will be blown away by these big band/pop jazz tracks on this never before released CD.  In addition, there is a DVD included which gives amazing footage of not only the behind-the-scenes making of this album, but also captures the respect and admiration these two friends had for one another and the music they created!
