Calgary Jazz singer Glennis Houston grew up listening to jazz and swing as her parents taught ballroom dancing, so she spent many nights listening to the laughter and music emanating from the basement dancing studio. "Winnipeg born Glennis Houston makes her first CD with a title that might well be a reflection of life's difficulties. This may be her first flight, but Glennis takes off well with "Bye Bye Blackbird" showing us a strong confident voice and a fine backing group to match. She sings mainly standards, with a couple co-written. One of these, "The Story's Over", is a strong swinging number, whilst Cole Porter's "You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To" is sung with a provocative sensuality.
