Review |
Norah Jones |
It is not just the timbre of Norah Jones's voice that is mature beyond her 22 years. Her assured phrasing and precise time are more often found in older singers as well. She is instantly recognizable, blending intimations of Billie Holiday and Nina Simone without sounding like anyone but herself. Anyway you slice it, she is a singer to be reckoned with. Her readings of the Hank Williams classic, "Cold Cold Heart" and Hoagy Carmichael's "The Nearness of You" alone are worth the price of the CD. - Review & Buy @Amazon.com |

Description |
 Johnny Asia |
Johnny Asia bills himself as the "guitarist from the future". After listening to several of his tracks, he may be instead the guitarist from a future galaxy. Imagine Jose' Felliciano after doing a 55-gallon drum of industrial strength speed. Johnny has several collaborations with Jeff Armstrong for some of the most incredible flamenco style guitar, taken to the next level, that you'll here anywhere on this planet. Their recording of "The Bull Kills the Matador" may be symbolic of this, but as you listen to the various tracks you'll hear some really incredible acoustic flamenco-jazz guitar playing . . . and that ain't no bull! |
Eva Cassidy Songbird |
Songbird cherry-picks tracks from the three locally released albums of Eva Cassidy, whose hauntingly beautiful vocals went virtually unheard outside her native Washington, D.C., during her short 33 years with us. Lost to melanoma in 1996, Cassidy sang with an unaffected purity and an astonishing ability to make both classic and contemporary songs sound like they were written just for her. |
