That's Him!

That's Him! is the second album by American jazz vocalist Abbey Lincoln featuring tracks recorded in 1957 for the Riverside label.

Reception
The editors of AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars, and reviewer Scott Yanow stated: "even this early, she was already a major jazz singer with a style of her own".

A reviewer for Billboard commented: "Miss Lincoln is a comer with a flare for the dramatic and an effective delivery... Material treated is provocative; some of it off-beat, some in the standard category."

Eric Ajaye of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation noted that the album "marked the beginnings of a real change in the singer's style," and remarked: "While her debut was a flowery orchestral session featuring a big band with strings, this sophomore date pitted Abbey's expressive voice against some of New York's leading voices... Here, we get our first glimpse of a revitalised Abbey Lincoln, and both she and Roach would take this incandescent energy into the next decade with music made in response to the civil rights movement."

The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings wrote: "Dorham is one of the most naturally vocal of the bop trumpeters and as such is an ideal partner, though it's the still underrated Kelly who carries the day."
