To paraphrase from the title of a vintage jazz ballad, "It Was a Beautiful Three Days in August," when singer/songwriter Marilyn Scott fulfilled her long-held dream of recording an acoustic jazz album in New York City the way the legends used to do it - with the singer and musicians all cutting and working out arrangements together in the studio. Christened Every Time We Say Goodbye, the album is a dreamy throwback to a purer aesthetic that marks the 30th anniversary of Ms. Scott's impressively eclectic recording career - one in which she has successfully sung soul, pop, smooth jazz, adult contemporary and music for motion pictures. However, anyone who has listened to her CDs knows that jazz has been a prominent part of the foundation of her artistic architecture. So much so that she is the only vocalist in the history of Billboard magazine to have two different albums charting on the Contemporary Jazz and Traditional Jazz charts - simultaneously. Now on Every Time We Say Goodbye, Marilyn Scott is taking her love for jazz to new heights with a seasoned East Coast quintet led by acclaimed pianist Cyrus Chestnut, produced for the Japan-based Venus Records imprint by label president Tetsuo Hara and veteran jazz musician/producer Todd Barkan - his partner of 15 years. The 10-song repertoire is comprised of smoky wee hours standards such as the Cole Porter-penned title track, a Rio-kissed samba take on Irving Berlin's "I Got Lost in His Arms" and a blues walk through "Detour Ahead." The arrangements offer fresh nuances to familiar favorites as do Marilyn's artful and articulate vocal interpretations.

　　知名爵士乐评家寺岛靖国钦点Venus旗下精锐萨克斯风名家，精彩忘情的情歌詮释，让人感受萨克斯风挡不住的魅力。
　　一般人认为，美国东岸的爵士乐以传统爵士为主，而西岸则是以融合爵士乐（Fusion Jazz）为大宗。来自西岸的玛莉莲史考特则让人耳目一新。玛莉莲史考特一直在西岸发展，因此她的合作班底也多半为西岸爵士乐手。像是著名的钢琴家George Duke，就替她制作了近期大部分的专辑。除此之外，她也经常与Yellowjackets、Spiral Gyro这类融合乐团合作，甚至放客音乐（Funk）名团Tower Of Power也经常与她合作。玛莉莲史考特的现代爵士演唱当然也获得眾多乐迷支持，在2005年，玛莉莲的「Handipicked」专辑登上告示牌杂誌当代爵士专辑榜，而「Nightcap」专辑则登上传统爵士榜，这使得她成为有史以来唯一有不同专辑同时横跨两榜的爵士歌手！即使在她的传统爵士专辑，玛莉莲史考特也通常与融合爵士乐的乐手们合作，使得她的爵士歌唱显得与眾不同。
　　在Venus唱片负责人原哲夫的邀请下，玛莉莲史考特在2007年来到纽约，在著名的The Studio录制了一张传统爵士乐的专辑。与她以往的专辑不同的是，在这张唱片中出现的，几乎全都是传统爵士乐的著名乐手。Cyrus Chestnut早就是独当一面的钢琴大师，在此专辑中画龙点睛的编曲与演奏都展现出成熟内敛的钢琴演奏魅力，而吉他手Paul Bollenback则是曾与Mark Murphy之流的传奇人物合作。替歌曲增添灵魂的，则首推爵士竖笛演奏高手Ken Peplowski，他在Venus已经灌录过个人专辑，而萨克斯风与竖笛左右开弓的演奏功力在此再次让人嘆为观止。
　　在选曲方面，当然少不了传统的爵士歌曲如柯尔波特的「Every Time We Say Goodbye」与「I Love Paris」、艾文伯林的「I Got Lost In His Arms」、「Autumn In New York」，艾灵顿公爵名曲「Caravan」、「Cry Me A River」等等，特别的是收录了两首伯恩斯坦的音乐剧名曲「Lonely Town」（音乐剧On The Town插曲）与「Somewhere」（西城故事插曲），与流行圣手巴克拉克的「Do You Know The Way To San Jose?」。玛莉莲史考特本来就深受灵魂与福音音乐的影响（她的偶像包括Aretha Franklin与Glydis Knight，还有摇滚名歌手Janis Joplin），再加上日后融合爵士乐的影响，唱起歌来中气十足，道尽歌曲的精髓。而伴奏乐手的杰出表现，当然也是本专辑的聆听重点。最后，以Venus独家的Hyper Magnum Sound二十四位元混音系统进行混音与母带处理，让这张唱片处处充满精彩的细节、音质优美、动态活生。
