The album has been out for one week & some reviews have already come in..."The artist is the wonderful talent Cynthia Kaay Bennett and the cd is JAZZ! and it is swinging like the wind and Cynthia is scatting and singing a beautiful interpretation of the lyric. Doesn't hurt to have a great band of veterans. A great cd entitled "Dreams of You" by Cynthia. Other wonderful Nashville writers that have songs on the cd are David Hungate and April Barrows, Dani Carroll, J Fred Knobloch and many others." "The CD truly sounds top notch! When I got your cd, I enjoyed the whole album. I remarked that it fits in perfectly with the stuff I hear on jazz radio (which I have on pretty much all the time)." And from another notable songwriter, "LOVE IT!"
