Is This Desire?
author: Regina BurchettAnd I thought I didn't like jazz - now I'm changing my mind! Great music to listen or dance to, and a great voice! This will never go out of style.
THIS LADY HAS A BEAUTIFUL, BELL-LIKE VOICE. I ENJOYED THE ALBUM.
author: CARL SUNDSTROMI FIRST HEARD THIS VOCALIST ON JAZZ 88 AND CALLED THE STATION TO FIND OUT HER NAME. HER PHRASING IS EXCELLENT, GOOD DICTION, BELL-LIKE TONE. THE TECHNICAL QUALITY OF THE ALBAM I PURCHASED (IS THIS DESIRE?) IS EXCELLENT AND HER TRIO IS QUITE GOOD. I ENJOYED HER TREATMENT OF THE STANDARDS, PARTICULARLY #1, #2 AND #4.
