a jazzer myself and vocalist, she has always been one of my fave's -- should be more popular than she is.... a gem.

This swings like mad yet keeps the underlining ache of the lyric and that world-beatingly lovely melody. Never heard of the artist until now - many thanks for introducing me to a major talent. 'Swonderful.

Absolutely wonderful artist and the trio behind her is brilliant.

They are sooooooo musical.

Her usual piano player, Bruce Barth, is one of my favorite NY area jazz pianists too. Phenomenal.
