On "Nobody Else but Me," Bennett navigates a programme of standards with her characteristically understated, yet precisely intoned, cool jazz phrasing. The arrangements here are exemplary, with pianist John Malachi and bassist Ben Tucker providing understated support.

Betty Bennett was a jazz singer from California who, despite a small discography, was a distinctive voice in West Coast cool jazz. In 1955, she was a year into her recording career, having released her debut album a year prior.
