I Wish I'd Met You - Ezra Weiss

[jenspollheide]

Corcoran Holt is a great bass player!

This song is so hauntingly arranged. So beautifully played. Such melancholy. Well done Ezra Weiss! The melody could so easily be the soundtrack to film noir - glistening, deserted rain-slicked streets.

And you Heidi Krenn are caught in the lamplight. You sing it like there's no tomorrow. Such wonderful range, a pure moody jazz style I love.

Thank you so much!

she sounds pretty, but... one Astrud Gilberto was enough.

i know her sister

Live longer my butt. She made a few technical mistakes, but her voice is great for that bluesy sound. I love her. This quality is awful--it doesn't do her justice.

Thanks, Jeff! Brazil is my dream place where I want to go. Maybe I'll see you there some day.  I'm writing a suite in honor of Shirley Horn. We'll record it this fall. I'll keep you posted. Thanks again for your encouraging words.

I wish that a great singer of stature and impeccable range, like Natalie Cole, would do it.

(For a moment, I thought about Diana Krall, not because I like her, but because she owes Shirley everything, as Shirley herself used to protest to no avail.

This is singer needs to live a longer, so she will know how to put some emotion into this type music. Her delivery is too bland.

[ezweiss]

The videotaping must not do Heidi Krenn justice, because she is one of the most expressive singers I have ever known. I think she sings the song beautifully.
