I wish some of the NY and LA Cabaret chick singers would listen to this stuff more often. It's weird....but to find this quality....you have got to move on to a different planet. To sing with Clifford Brown, Oscar Pittiford and Jimmy Jones....you had to sing that good or these cats wouldn't do the gig! About the only female singer out there today that could do this song this good, is Natalie Cole.

Great artistry. Helen Merrill & Clifford Brown, a marriage made in heaven.

[60otaku3]

Helen Merrill is still living...

I cannot believe I never heard Ms. Merrill before. I am shocked to hear this song, sung so movingly and gorgeously.

[honeybee7700]

absolutely heartbreaking

[MrMiguelin59]

La voz cargada de brumas y nostalgia de Helen Merril y el sólo de Clifford Brown,tal vez sea Helen la mejor crooner de jazz, en su estilo supera a Julie London the smoky voice.

[krikriremix]

Me enamore de la voz de hellen merril. es tan intensa y sensible a la vez

[BillyRosinet]

Ah, brings back childhood memories. She still sounds fresh and original after all these years.

[genroku7]

she is way better than Julie London.

[spadge1able]

class shear class.great song too.

[hughmackie]

She owns this song. An amazing performance by a 24 year old, mature beyond her years, with the assurance and courage to sing slowly. Unforgettable.

[capgentum]

Helen's voice is pure smoke and honey. I wish she was better known in her own country. I think we don't appreciate true talent because we rarely hear it. Thank you YOUTUBE!

[MrMiguelin59]

ëste video con la cálida voz de Helen Merrill es lo máximo y la trompeta de Clifford Brown en su tono justo.

Recomiendo escuchar a John Coltrane interpretando What's new?

También a Clifford Brown and Sarah Vaughan

Thank you so much es a great pleasure to enter in you tube.Mi life changed after I knew this page.Is much more than a webpage.Thanks again

はじめまして。

CDになっている緑色の写真はよく見ますが、モノクロのこのジャ­ケットが

オリジナルなのでしょうか。

こちらの方がアルバムのイメージには合うような気がします。

カメラマンは誰だったのかなぁ.....

クリス・コナーの10インチアルバムのジャケットを撮ったバート­・ゴールドブラット

かなぁ。

(エマーシーとベツレヘム、レーベルが違うから違うでしょうね)

いい写真だなぁ

[60otaku3]

コメントありがとうございます！

眉間にシワを寄せて悩ましげに歌っているお馴染みのジャケット

（ヘレン本人も大嫌いなんだそうです）より、私もこちらの方が好­みです。

ちなみにこれはイタリアでEP盤として出回った色違いジャケのう­ちのひとつです。

撮影者が誰なのかは不明ですが、確かにゴールドブラッドに似てお­りますね。

@eastend0003 I do think is an original..

Betty Carter owns this song

[MrLopezsMusicLounge]

I posted a vid response with her recording of Umiliani's "Smog", which made me shiver up & down when I first heard it.

[60otaku3]

Thanks for your response video, MrLopezsMusicLounge-san!!

I rated 5 stars to it.

[MrLopezsMusicLounge]

oh Madame Merrill!!!!! That is the sexiest voice of all the ages, while still being perfect with regard to form. A Jazz singer par excellence ... Ive often wondered if Marilyn Monroe had some Helen Merrill records at her house....her singing was VERY similar, but never better than La Merrill.

[realself1]

thanks for posting. whew!

You're welcome, realself1-san!!

I love Helen- the control and phrasing is out of this world. She and Sue Raney are always ready for my turntable. Great to hear Clifford solo...

[60due]

Certo che, dopo averla sentita da lei,io non ho più il coraggio di cantarla.....DIVINA!!!

[expenguin67]

A San Francisco radio station in the late 50s-early 60s-- maybe KSFO?-- used the first few bars of "What's New?" as a lead-in to its news segment. I didn't know the title of this song at that time but when I found out I remember thinking "How cool." Cheers.

Questo bellissimo tema di Bob Haggarth

"What is new!"è qui riproposto dalla voce

di Helen Merrill,una delle migliori voci di

oltre-oceano,molto raffinata,intellettuale

Qui.siamo nel 1954,e la Merrill è in ottima

compagnia: con l'abituale compagno Bar

ry Galbraith alla chitarra,citiamo Jimmi

Jones al piano e un giovanissimo Clifford

Brown,tromba,morto po prematuramente.

短いながらもブラウニーが雰囲気たっぷりにソロを取るところが素­晴らしいですね。
