Born in Kansas City, Betty Bryant began playing the piano when she was four. After graduating from college in the early 1950s, she began playing and singing jazz and standards professionally in Topeka and Kansas City. She has been a fixture in Los Angeles clubs since she moved out here in 1955 and is still playing regularly.

Iteration + consists of 14 songs drawn from her previous recordings Come Laugh With Me, What’s The Point, No Regrets and Together plus three recently recorded selections. Ms. Bryant is joined by bassist Tomas Gargano, several different drummers (including Kenny Elliot and James Gadson) and, on some of the tunes, Robert Kyle (who produced this reissue) on tenor or soprano.

The music is a consistent delight.

Whether sounding bluesy, joyful, sassy or all three, Betty Bryant is heard throughout at the top of her form. She makes such songs as “Black Coffee” “St. Louis Blues,” “When Did .You Leave Heaven,’ “You’re My Thrill”. and “Until The Real Thing’ Comes Alorig” sound fresh and lively. In ,addition to the well-known songs, she also performs such obscurities as “Scratch,” “Keep Him Away From Me,” and “Grease In My Gravy” plus her “Where Did Tomorrow Go,” “Come And Laugh With Me” and “It’s Hard To Say Goodbye.” Everything works well.

Iteration + serves as a perfect introduction to Betty Bryant’s music; which is always swinging, soulful and. quite enjoyable. It is recommended and available from www.bettybzyant.com. Be sure to see the ageless and legendary Betty Bryant when she appears in local clubs.
