Genre: Jazz
FCCs: none
Review: ambitious and challenging: a voice with a bass. The sparse instrumentation and a soulful, caressing pitch of the vocals seduce the listener on this short set. I especially liked the Prince cover.
If You Like: Betty Carter, Dee Dee Bridgewater
Track Review (favorites denoted by *):
*1/ L-O-V-E (2:56) – bass starts> uptempo song> quick fade
2/ Latch (5:56) – bass starts> midtempo song> bass & scat duet> midtempo song> fade on vocal
**3/ Kiss (5:57) – bass stutters> midtempo song> bass solo> midtempo song> fade on vocal
*4/ Back To Black (7:25) - bass starts slow with walking sound> slow song builds to midtempo song, then slows to fade
5/ No Ordinary Love (6:27) – vocal starts> slow song> builds to midtempo & fades
6/ The Star-Spangled Banner “The Brave” (2:55) – vocal/bass starts> slow tempo song> fade on vocal
