This album is a stunner! - if in doubt just listen to Cassandra's quirky take on 'St James Infirmary.'
Some female jazz singers have sultry voices which consistently haunt the senses - for example Billie Holiday, Julie London, Astrud Gilberto, Patricia Barber - well to me this lady has that same quality. Seeing her live some years ago was indeed a sensual treat too.
