About this album
Twenty years into her career, Holly Cole has released a disc that may well have surpassed anything else she has previously recorded. Much of the kudos goes to producer Greg Cohen--famous for working with jazz legends Ornette Coleman and Bill Frisell--who has wisely brought in individual jazz players (rather than a preexisting big band) and let each contribute to the overall sound. The result is an auditory sense of being in an underground New York jazz club, surrounded by world-class instrumentalists and one sultry singer.

Much of the kudos goes to producer Greg Cohen--famous for working with jazz legends Ornette Coleman and Bill Frisell--who has wisely brought in individual jazz players (rather than a preexisting big band) and let each contribute to the overall sound. The result is an auditory sense of being in an underground New York jazz club, surrounded by world-class instrumentalists and one sultry singer. On past CDs, the Toronto-based Cole often broke up the smoothness by occasionally emitting a Broadway style of singing, taking listeners on a musical ride that was more Liza than lounge. On this self-titled disc, she is unprecendentedly relaxed, her voice languidly drifting along with the musicians rather than trying to sing over them. As a result, tracks such as "You're My Thrill" and "I Will Wait for You" are highlighted by her hushed softness, while "Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries" showcases Cole's sass, mixing it up between hot clarinet, guitar, and trombone licks. Her song choices are also strong. Cole culls from legendary songwriters (Cole Porter's "It's Alright with Me," Irving Berlin's "Reaching for the Moon," Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Waters of March") and additionally, has contributed her own track "Larger Than Life" which fits perfectly in the smooth, jazzy mix. -- Denise Sheppard read less
