Press Release Summary: The 10-song collection is comprised of standards such as the
Cole Porter-penned title track, which sets the pace for the album as Marilyn's
exceptionally soothing vocals take the listener to another time and place.


Press Release Body: Los Angeles,CA, June 26, 2008 -- With Every Time We Say Goodbye,
Marilyn Scott is taking her love for jazz to the ultimate place her heart has always
desired, to make an acoustic jazz album in New York City the way the legends used to
do it - with the singer and musicians all cutting and working out arrangements
together in the studio.

Although the physical CD is currently only available as a Japanese import, jazz fans
can download the album on iTunes or purchase the CD from Marilyn's website, though
soon it will also be available on Amazon.com. The 10-song collection is comprised of
standards such as the Cole Porter-penned title track, which sets the pace for the
album as Marilyn's exceptionally soothing vocals take the listener to another time
and place. The artist spreads her wings on Irving Berlin\'s \"I Got Lost in His Arms\"
with a distinct flavor and rhythm that recalls Ella Fitzgerald paired with Joe Pass.
Sister blues shows up on \"Detour Ahead,\" where Marilyn shows the incredible
diversity and confidence in her vocal style as jazz and blues intermingle and remind
us of how close they are but a world apart with vocal tones and inflection. The
arrangements offer new shades to familiar favorites when jazz was king, as do
Marilyn\'s crafty and eloquent vocal interpretations.

The outstanding musicianship that accompanies Ms. Scott on Every Time We Say Goodbye
comes from a seasoned East Coast quintet led by acclaimed pianist Cyrus Chestnut and
produced for the Japan-based Venus Records imprint by label president Tetsuo Hara
and veteran jazz musician/producer Todd Barkan - his partner of 15 years.

The process of creating Every Time We Say Goodbye was filled with spontaneity and
some surprises along the way. \"Todd called me in June of 2007 and asked if I\'d be
interested in doing something for Venus,\" Ms. Scott recalls. \"The company was
looking to do more vocal projects.\" Barkan - whose extensive resume includes
production for jazz vocal greats such as Jimmy Scott, Gloria Lynne, Freddy Cole and
Vanessa Rubin, as well as Venus\' own Barbara Carroll and Simone Kopmajer - adds, \"A
year ago Mr. Hara asked me to send him demo materials on a bunch of singers to see
what resonated with him and the Japanese market. I first became aware of Marilyn
through a neighbor of mine - an amateur music enthusiast with whom I\'m constantly
sharing new music. Though Marilyn\'s musical style was not the idiom I normally work
in, she had a resonance and timbre in her voice that I felt would sound wonderful
within a straight ahead jazz framework. Mr. Hara and I both felt strongly about
this, so we reached out to her.\"

"Vocalist Marilyn Scott has put out a shocker of a new release, and that's in a good
sense. All throughout the disc, Scott is warm, convincing, and seemingly comfortable
in the genre that she's finally plunged in. Hopefully this disc is the first in a
long series. Pleasant surprise of the year." George Harris/LA Jazz Weekly
