It is without a doubt that a listener could be swept off their feet when listening to this fabulous album. Barbara's artistic form and lovable personality is impossible to resist. Within this cd she pays tribute to one of my favorite vocalists, Joe Williams, and surrounds herself with some truly hep cats. I found myself intoxicated by her beautiful clarity and gregarious attitude. She is full of soul and energy, something no performer should be without. Also her love for each song that she nurtures sets her apart from most jazz & blues vocalist. She is an absolute delight and this cd is just sensational!
