Musical Memoirs
Gable has spent twenty-five years developing a reputation as a songstress in Reno, Nevada. She is working with longtime friend and fellow musician Harvie S. who played with her on her very first concert appearance two and a half decades ago. I enjoy her Latin arranged tunes the best, like the title tune that opens this album.

Brief Notes On New Jazz Releases
Vocalist and composer CeCe Gable’s new album features most covers, along with a couple of original compositions. It opens with one of the original numbers, the album’s title track, which CeCe Gable wrote with Corky Brumble. This track has a strong rhythm, and it takes us to a different time and place, as she sings in the song’s first line, “Once upon a summertime when we were young and free.” From her delivery, it doesn’t seem all that long ago, and least not in her mind, her heart.

All About Jazz
To hear CeCe Gable sing is to encounter pure truth. A late bloomer whose early passion for dance was eventually eclipsed by the lure of jazz, she's spent the past three decades honing her craft and establishing herself as a sincere storyteller adept at honoring a lyric and elevating every number she inhabits. Since first taking to the studio at the dawn of the new millennium, CeCe has gone on to develop a body of work that speaks volumes about integrity and openness. Bassist and producer Harvie S, highlighting that fact, sums her up with complimentary concision: "She's an honest singer."

With her bright tone and brilliant technique, CeCe Gable is an ideal interpreter of florid romantic standards, but she is equally adept at writing some of her own as “Next Year’s Song”, the piece on this album, suggests.
