Thank you very much for sharing al this beautiful things, and a happy
birthday for your friend Olay
Ooh indeed Anamari who?!?
A new name, curious to hear her.
Thank's for this new discovery!

Had time to listen to the record, what a nice voice, and great musical backings...Any chance you can identify the guitarist?
And who is she? Really! I wanna know now!!!
Looking forward for an answer!
And happy birthday to Mrs Olay, I hope that she had a nice celebration!

The mother of singer of Alana Davis. Wife of the later jazz pianist Walter Davis. The brevity of her career might be attributable to the prevailing 1950s "can't have-it-all" pre-womens lib sentiment, i.e. marriage & career = oil & water? Just a guess. Or simply swept away by the tsunami of encroaching rock & roll? Or. . .? Whichever. . .a loss!
I think that the predominant force in ending the era of the "classic jazz/pop" vocal LP was the industry, not "love and marriage". Contracts for male singers ended around this time as well (1956-1958). Many young female singers who started their careers earlier (say 1930's-1940's) were able to sustain longer recording careers. Certainly, family matters were a major force, but I would believe that many younger female artists would have continued with a record here and there if the industry were more open to continuing the art form.
Some of those that were able to continue often were faced with such low quality arrangements or material that they decided to quit recording.
Her name is Anamri Schofield and she had a jazzclub where she sang with Joe Saye (I found out)

I've really enjoyed this album, listening to it very often.
I've spoken on the phone with Anamari's daughter, also a singer. If I ever do liner notes for this release I will try to do a "phoner" with her mother.
Aahh that would be so cool Dr.!
Looking forward to a possible cd reissue and that interview, cause I'm very curious why her career ended (?) after that one LP, I don't know when the album was issued, but I believe that the review of her club I've red was from '63 or so.
Deep in myself I hope that she made some records with her husband...Wishfull thinking, but who knows, maube they did...
Thank's again for this wonderful gift, really appreciated!

Hi - I just found your page while looking for info about Anamari Schofield and - sorry to be the bearer of bad news - right after I read here that she passed away on November 3rd. She was 70.
