Biography:
Marlena Shaw (New Rochelle, 22 de septiembre de 1942), cantante estadounidense de jazz y pop. Vocalista versátil y carismática, su obra se mantiene en los límites del jazz tradicional, aun con una tendencia constante a su fusión con el pop, el soul, el blues y el rhythm and blues.
Introducida por su tío, el trompetista Jimmy Burgess, en la música de Dizzy Gillespie y Miles Davis, Marlena prestó más atención a las grabaciones de Al Hibbler, vocalista que tendría gran influencia en su estilo.

It's all in the air, you hear it everywhere,
