Album Notes
Personnel: Jane Monheit (vocals); Hank Crawford (alto saxophone); David "Fathead" Newman (tenor saxophone, flute); Kenny Barron (piano); Bucky Pizzarelli (guitar); Ron Carter (bass); Lewis Nash (drums).
Recorded at Sear Sound, New York, New York on January 13 & 14, 2000. Includes liner notes by Michael Bourne.
Jane Monheit's NEVER NEVER LAND presents a series of jazz standards skillfully re-imagined for the 21st century. Her warm, wise voice and sophisticated arrangements (discreet vocal overdubs, unexpected Latin grooves, a cappella moments) and style provide a nice, personal twist on classics such as "Please Be Kind," "My Foolish Heart," and "I Got it Bad (and That Ain't Good)". All this, and the rich, tart, bluesy saxophones of legends Hank Crawford and David "Fathead" Newman, too.
Industry Reviews
3.5 stars out of 5 - ...A nicely understated debut that bodes well for an ingenue. Her voice is airy, sweet and soft...yet she can set it on edge...
Down Beat (09/01/2000)
There's always room for another good singer, however conservative, in the jazz pool, and Monheit fits the bill... - Rating: B
Entertainment Weekly (10/22/2000)
...Monheit has a rich, vibrant voice and strong musical instincts...
