Genre: Soul, R&B, Jazz Vocal
Description: This is a classic 45 RPM single by the distinctive soul and jazz vocalist Billy Stewart.
Summertime: Stewart's version of the Gershwin standard is famous for his unique, rapid-fire scatting, vocal improvisations, and a driving, almost manic, rhythm. It's a wild, energetic, and highly original interpretation that became his signature.
Secret Love: The B-side would likely be another soulful interpretation of a pop standard, showcasing his powerful vocal range and his ability to infuse any song with his unique, quirky, and soulful style.
