Irma Curry may not be a familiar name to you, but in the early 1950s she was a star vocalist in Lionel Hampton's band. In 1962, she recorded a stupendous album for Columbia called Love Is a Necessary Evil.
Irma also recorded several singles with Benny Carter in 1964 and with the Alan Simon Trio in 1985. In between, she performed at clubs in New York and Hollywood, including gigs with Louis Jordan. A few weeks ago, when Fresh Sound's Jordi Pujol told me he was re-issuing Love Is a Necessary Evil and that Irma was still around, I tracked down a number for her and we spent time on the phone. Irma has the most lyrical phone voice and she is as sweet and as gracious as can be. (All photos of Irma Curry courtesy of Kim, Irma's daughter.)
