Helen Merrill is the debut studio album by vocalist Helen Merrill, on which she is accompanied by trumpeter Clifford Brown in arrangements by Quincy Jones. Brown had recorded a similar album with Sarah Vaughan only a few days previously, on December 16 and 18, 1954.

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "The music is essentially straight-ahead bop, yet the seven standards ... are uplifted by the presence of Merrill (in top form) and Brown." In a review of a 2007 reissue of Merrill's first two albums by Lone Hill Jazz, David Rickert singled out the performance of "'S Wonderful" as "one of the best versions of the Gershwin tune I've heard in years" and called the two sessions "a vocal jazz feast well worth deserving of more renown." - Wikipedia

Helen Merrill en concert le 30 octobre 1984 au Théâtre de la Ville à Paris

Professionnelle dès l'âge de16 ans, Helen Merrill a d'abord côtoyé le pianiste Earl Hines puis l'arrangeur Quincy Jones, avant de tourner le dos au bebop pour tracer son propre chemin, toute en retenue et en élégance, idéal pour le quintet de Gordon Beck...
