| For Your Consideration: Marty Elkins "Fat Daddy" For Your Consideration: Marty Elkins "Fat Daddy" Best Jazz Vocal "Marty Elkins is the most effective purveyor of 1920s and '30s swing vocals recording today." C. Michael Bailey, All About Jazz, July 9th, 2018 MARTY ELKINS FAT DADDY was selected TOP TEN CDs of 2018 in Cadence Magazine "While her previous CDs are excellent, Fat Daddy is Marty Elkins' definitive recording so far and is highly recommended to fans of first-class swing singers." Scott Yanow, The Syncopated Times - August 1, 2018 "Surely the acid test for any record is whether you play it just once, just twice, or have to hear it again and again: it's in your head always. Fat Daddy is an always record, and Marty Elkins is an always singer….Her lush voice caresses the lyrics of this imaginative and compelling collection of standards and discoveries…. Elkins can do anything."
