If you have ever head the Sheryl Crow song "We Do What We Can" off Tuesday Night Music Club, and liked it, you will love this. This is modern jazz for the female vocalist. The guitar licks often feel John Scofield influenced, and it has a very free jazz spirit. A 2am venture into a New York jazz club, "I'll have a Manhattan", may very well be where this album is coming from. It should be noted it is mellow, and is not simply "another female jazz CD", it is truly inovative. If you are looking for Modern Jazz, and Modern cool, this is the CD to pick up. Not to mention Patricia Barber is inovative and phenomenal on this album.
