Jeri has everything looks, personality, and her choice of material is great. She doesnt play or sing the ordinary overworked things. Man, she sells! Not since I first heard Sarah Vaughan have I been so impressed by a new singer. Miles Davis (1949) In the midst of the Terrible Tempest of Tortured Sounds that are being heard on records these days, Jeris soft, searching style can be considered a welcome haven in the storm. Mel Mandel, Down Beat (July 2, 1952) The voice of Jeri Southern is a sound thats hard to forget. As former Times arts editor Charles Champlin recalled: That smoky sound and that special way with lyrics made her just perfect for intimate clubs. She was one of the true originals.
