Paulette McWilliams Concert Review – Catalina Bar & Grill | June 27th, 2012

Paulette McWilliams Re-emerges Vivacious As Ever With Hollywood Jazz Set
Concert Review by A. Scott Galloway

 
Since being formally “introduced” to the world as a guest on Quincy Jones’ R&B-era Lp Mellow Madness in 1975 and later working prominently as a background singer on records and on the road with the late, great Luther Vandross, Ms. Paulette McWilliams is often lazily categorized as a soul singer…though a mighty good one. Truth be told, jazz is her root music – with a lot of class and sass. All were in colorful abundance during a rare one night/one set show in Hollywood last Wednesday (June 27, 2012) at Catalina Bar & Grill where the lady slid in to showcase music from her long-awaited first American album in four decades, Telling Stories (not counting the 2007 Japanese import-only, Flow).
