Now! Hear! by Andy And The Bey Sisters, released on Prestige in 1964
Review by Michael G. Nastos
Expressive vocalists hook up with Jerome Richardson (sax and flute), Kenny Burrell (guitar) for expansive treatments of jazz.
I love that the first lines of the liner notes for this LP from 1964 by Joel Dorn are
"We live in the age of the computer,. We have been area codes, zip coded and IBMed to the nth degree"

Andy And The Bey Sisters by Andy And The Bey Sisters, released on RCA Victor in 1961.
Produced by Chet Atkins!
Andrew Wideman Bey Jr. (October 28, 1939 – April 26, 2025) was an American jazz singer and pianist. Bey had a wide vocal range, with a four-octave baritone voice.
He worked on the 1959/1960 television show Startime with Connie Francis, and sang for Louis Jordan. At age 17, he formed a trio with his siblings Salome Bey and Geraldine Bey (de Haas) called Andy and the Bey Sisters. The trio went on a 16-month tour of Europe. The jazz trumpeter Chet Baker's 1988 documentary Let's Get Lost includes footage of Bey and his sisters delighting a Parisian audience... - Wikipedia
"I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree
A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
Against the earth's sweet-flowing breast;"
