CD Reviews

FLAWLESS. LaVerne who? Nevermind, just buy this record!

Jerry N. Jones | Ft. Lauderdale | 02/06/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"What did we ever do without those listening centers in music stores? I had no idea who this lovely woman was when I put on the headphones, but from the first few chords and notes from this jazz singer, it was love at first listen. Oh my, is this good. My Diana Krall cd's will take a ride in the backseat until I get a few dozen more spins of Ms. Butler. Also being unknown to me is the record label, MAXJAZZ, and I will be exploring their website to see other artists they have. Perfectly produced by Bruce Barth, who also plays piano throughout beautifully. The packaging should also be noted as well. A great quote in the inside jacket by Ms. Butler states: "I am a jazz singer...the vibe is in the blues". Truer words have not been spoken."

WOW!

"is all I can say about this jazz singer who I discovered recently at the listening station at my local music store. I don't know why Ms. Butler isn't better known; she is truly a talented singer who, in my opinion, beats Diana Krall hands down when it comes to versatility and range. There is some great piano playing on this CD too! If you're looking for something new to add to your jazz collection, you won't be disappointed."

Pretty fabulous...

"A nice understated singer who doesn't have to caterwaul or stray outside the boundaries of the tune to be hip. With each disc Ms. Butler gets better and better. In my opinion, she's the best vocalist on MaxJazz -- and really gorgeous a la Horne. I hate to use the overused word, but "cool" suits her.
Good songwriter, too."
