STACEY KENT
THE TENDER TRAP | |
Description:
Stacey Kent has an attractive voice and a lightly swinging style. She is joined by tenor saxophonist Jim Tomlinson who recalls Scott Hamilton and Stan Getz in spots, guitarist Colin Oxley, pianist David Newton, bassist Dave Green and drummer Jeff Hamilton. Kent uplifts each of the familiar tunes slightly but does not add much of herself to the material. Certainly these versions of "I Didn't Know About You," "Comes Love," "East of the Sun" and "They All Laughed" would not qualify as definitive or dwarf one's memory of earlier renditions. But Stacey Kent has potential for the future once she grows a bit more. A pleasing if insubstantial effort. Originally released in 1999. |
