This concert performance is quite unusual: an unaccompanied recital by the great baritonist Hamiet Bluiett. Although its subtitle is &A Solo Blues Concert,& the &blues& refers to the feeling that Bluiett puts into his music rather than the structure of his originals itself. &In Tribute to Harry Carney& is a highpoint. Bluiett is in top form during this adventurous but fairly melodic performance.
