Blue Alert (CD/DVD)

by: Anjani

Release Date April 24, 2007
What can I say? Just an overall excellent mellow cd that is right up there with the best. I mean, how can you beat Leonard Cohen? The dudes a legend! His poetry/lyrics along with Anjani's luscious etherial voice make this a keeper. I love every song on this album. Thanks for the Dance is just terrific in sadness, clarity and openess. Sample the tracks to see if it is your style. Can't wait for her next cd.
The bonus dvd included has a couple music videos with the Golden Voice himself, LC. Neat. A real treat.

Blue Alert

by: Anjani

Release Date May 23, 2006
Pianist Anjani Thomas has been doing her thing for decades, usually spending most of her time collaborating with her mentor, Leonard Cohen. And her latest release Blue Alert is nothing short of excellence.

Those of you that aren't fans of "piano jazz" (for lack of a better term) probably won't think much of this album because you might think that all the songs blend into each other, but in MY opinion, the album never runs out of gems. Standouts include the title track, "Nightingale" and "Never Got to Love You". Also stellar are relationship turmoil songs like the final two, "Crazy to Love You" and "Thanks for the Dance".

And everything else is great, too. If you want to hear some good coffee shop music right in your ... Read More:

The Sacred Names

by: Anjani Thomas

Release Date May 10, 2001
Should have guessed by the title, it is a bit too far on the worship-music side for my liking, kind of choir-like. Anjani's voice is always superb, no complaints ever about that, just that this is not her usual style and nowhere near jazz-like. Good for a kid's lullabye music cd.

The Benoit Freeman Project

by: David Benoit, Russ Freeman, Nathan East, Steven George, Gary Grant, Jerry Hey, Dan Higgins, Kenny Loggins, Tony Morales, Phil Perry

Release Date 1994
Not sure how it happened but this album got by me until recently I caught a tune from this CD on Sat. Radio and then had to do some serious research to track it down. Boy was it worth the effort. What drew me in was "When She Believed In Me" with Kenny Loggins singing the vocal part. AWESOME SONG and Kenny really does it justice (as always). But when I bought the CD and heard the rest of the tunes it quickly became one of my favorite smooth jazz choices. Benoit and Freeman are an excellent combination plus the CD is filled with many other GREAT jazz session players. How 'bout a 2010 version boys? Can't wait. This is truly....BlueJazz!!!
