Description

Never before been pressed to vinyl, Shirley Horns Softly is reflective of the albums late night recording sessions at Peirre Spreys home recording studio in rural Maryland, aptly named Mapleshade Studio. The 1988 release is commonly referred to as one of Horns most introspective and emotionally intensive records to date. With her sidemen Charles Ables (bass) and Steve Williams (percussion) gathered into a quaint, pastoral living room full of recording equipment, the trio plowed through the tunes, tracking almost until dawn. The album was remastered for vinyl at Infrasonic Mastering and pressed at Pallas Group.

White vinyl, limited to 300 copies.
