James Victor Scott (July 17, 1925 – June 12, 2014), known professionally as Little Jimmy Scott or Jimmy Scott, was an American jazz vocalist known for his high natural contralto voice and his sensitivity on ballads and love songs.

After success in the 1940s and 1950s, Scott’s career faltered in the early 1960s. He slid into obscurity before a comeback in the 1990s. His unusual singing voice was due to Kallmann syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that limited his height to 4 feet 11 inches (150 cm) until the age of 37, when he grew by 8 inches (20 cm). The syndrome prevented him from reaching classic puberty and left him with a high voice and unusual timbre.

Jazz vocalist Jimmy Scott is joined here by the likes of Charles Mingus, Kenny Clarke and more for an album of romantic ballads.

“Released in 1955, Very Truly Yours was the first album that Jimmy Scott recorded for the Savoy label. After spending the better part of a decade singing in ensembles, first with Lionel Hampton and then with New Orleans bandleader Paul Gayten, Scott was poised to make a name for himself as a solo artist. These dozen songs, executed with a small jazz combo supporting him (including Charles Mingus on bass), find Scott in beautiful voice, confidently investing himself in well-chosen covers as well as some of his own great originals. From the opening number (“Imagination”), it’s clear that you’re hearing a rare and expressive voice. Here he sounds every bit as romantic and inventive as he continued to be decades later.” – allmusic.com

69 year old Jimmy Scott still possesses one of the most original voices of today. A condition called Kallmann’s Syndrome has resulted in an eternal Soprano, akin to a Lena Horne alto, but altogether not comparable to anything. His timbre and phrasing style come through in the exception quality of this high-definition release.
