Background notes
Archive material and source history
Lambert, Hendricks & Ross were a jazz vocal trio that came together in the late 1950s. Dave Lambert wrote the lyrics, Jon Hendricks handled the scat singing, and Annie Ross provided the clear, bell-like vocals. Their sound was built on intricate harmonies and a playful, improvisational approach.
One of their best-known recordings is 'Halloween Spooks,' a song that captures the eerie fun of the holiday with clever lyrics and vocal acrobatics. The track shows how they could balance wit with technical skill, letting Hendricks' scat weave through Ross's precise delivery.
They released albums like 'Lambert, Hendricks & Ross Sing Ellington' in 1958 and 'The Hottest New Group in Jazz' in 1959. Their arrangements were complex, and not every audience connected with their style, but they developed a dedicated following for how they reimagined what a vocal jazz group could do.
