Annie Ross (born 25 July 1930, Mitcham, London, England, UK) is an English jazz singer, chanteuse and actress, best known as a member of the trio Lambert, Hendricks & Ross.

Ross is one of the early practitioners of a singing style known as vocalese, which involves the setting of original lyrics to an instrumental jazz solo. Her 1952 treatment of saxophonist Wardell Gray's "Twisted" is a classic example of vocalese.

She recorded seven albums with Lambert, Hendricks & Ross between 1957 and 1962.

She has received numerous awards and honors including the ASCAP Jazz Wall Of Fame (2009), the prestigious NEA Jazz Masters Award (2010), and the MAC Award for Lifetime Achievement (2011). She performs regularly at The Metropolitan Room (34 W. 22nd Street) in New York, with Tardo Hammer on piano, Neal Miner on bass, Tony Jefferson on drums, and Warren Vache on trumpet.

This little-known set (reissued on CD) from 1956 features singer Annie Ross four years after she originally recorded "Twisted" but a year before the formation of Lambert, Hendricks & Ross. Based in London at the time, Ross avoids scatting and vocalese in favor of conventional swinging and jazz-oriented interpretations of standards. Backed tastefully by pianist Tony Crombie, clarinetist Bob Burns, guitarist Roy Plummer and bassist Lennie Rush, Annie Ross shows that she could have been a successful solo artist if she had not met up with Dave Lambert and Jon Hendricks; at times she almost sounds like Susannah McCorkle. ---Scott Yanow, Rovi

Singer Annie Ross' first solo album after joining Lambert, Hendricks & Ross finds her at the peak of her powers. Ross is joined by two versions of the Gerry Mulligan Quartet with either Chet Baker or Art Farmer on trumpet, Bill Crow or Henry Grimes on bass, and drummer Dave Bailey. Annie Ross is at her best (and most appealing) on "I've Grown Accustomed to Your Face," "Give Me the Simple Life," "How About You," and "The Lady's in Love With You," but all the selections are quite rewarding and her interplay with baritonist Mulligan is consistently memorable. This date plus its follow-up A Gasser are both essential. [Subsequent CD reissues added several previously unissued selections and one that was originally on a sampler.] ---Scott Yanow, Rovi

This album reminds me of the small down and out clubs that were in LA during the early fifties, and probably had a few counterparts elsewhere, where the dope flowed I heard, and so did the creativity. By the early '60s these clubs had evolved into fancy places with more "plastic" undertakings. No piano here to limit the soloists' improvizations, as Mulligan, and I think his then wife, Annie Ross, wail with a simple and happy fealing only matched by the duet album with Julian "Cannonbal" Adderly and Nancy Wilson. Two of Mulligan's solos here are the most beautiful he ever played, at least to me. ---gregbirddizelec, amazon.com
