a review of Blue Light Til Dawn

A great example of human voice as a fine-tuned musical instrument.
　　
　　The span of the album is truly amazing: from Billie-Holiday-styled wistful abandon, to Betty Carter's loose, spontaneous contemporary cabaret, to the African wilderness sound. Every minute detail is put there fore a reason, and not one drumbeat feels out of place.
　　
　　In a way this is a concerto, incorporating contrasting elements of accoustics and organizing them into a rich and integrated whole. Thoroughly enjoyable.
