The Orchard

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Lizz Wright

Release Date February 26, 2008
Many reviews on Amazon -- and yes, myself guilty -- tend to lean towards fan-mail. You keep a watch out for your favourite artists, buy their cd's as they are released and write a review tell the world how truly fantastic the artist and music are. And by inference, your own taste in music. So let me start by saying that I do have a weakness for Lizz Wright. Don't expect a cool unbiased review. Her earlier albums have been spinning and spinning on my cd-player. Not just because of her voice, her phrasing and tone that she combines so beautifully and effortlessly. In this she is not alone, there are many good singers with fine material out there. But there is something special about Lizz Wright that makes her stand out. Hard to put the finger ... Read More:

What can I say, I love Michael Buble. We play it at work in the reception area so it has to be something that most people enjoy.

Loverly

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Cassandra Wilson

Release Date June 10, 2008
"Loverly" is the fifth album by Jazz chanteuse Cassandra Wilson that I own. Its name is taken from the song "Wouldn't it be loverly" (from the musical "My fair lady" - an album which coincidentally I got on CD for the first time this week) which she covers here in a big band Jazz style.

"Loverly" is actually an album of covers, the lone original number being the heavily African accented "Arere" (thanks to Nigerian drummer Lekan Babalola, as well as Cassandra singing in Yoruba). The album has a rather loose, spontaneous feel which sounds great. Much like its predecessor "Thunderbird", it displays diverse musical hues in a subtle way.

Songs like the swinging piano sprinkled opening cut "Lover come back to me" (with an extensive ... Read More:

Back to Bacharach

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Steve Tyrell

Release Date June 24, 2008
My wife and I have been great fans of Steve Tyrell since his first CD and we congratulate him on another hit -- couldn't happen to a nicer guy, especially when you read the background to the making of this special album. Steve has skillfully taken Burt's timeless hits and blended them with his contemporary voice (along with a selection of other great artists) into a classy masterpiece. Great job, Steve!

Worrisome Heart

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Melody Gardot

Release Date February 26, 2008
I sampled Melody's music on itunes and bought it here. Her music is very moody and soulful. It reminded me so much of Norah Jones whom I love very much. After I bought one for myself, I thought of a friend and bought one for her a few days later. Check out Melody's music. I hope you find it as enjoyable to listen to as I.

Dreaming Wide Awake

CD-Charts > Music > Vocal Jazz
by: Lizz Wright

Release Date June 14, 2005
I heard about this on Sunday Morning and they raved about Lizz so i thought I would try a CD.. I was pleasantly surprised how wonderful she sings. Lizz Wright has such a wonderful sound. MY ipod has LOTS of diffferent music (New and old, Country, pop, etc) and when a song of hers plays I put my ipod so I can hear all her songs I love it!
