Whether
you're hearing double-talent Annette Neuffer for the first
time, or following her musical progress for some 10 years
as l have, you're in for a special treat with her latest release.
She swings effortlessly with her lovely sonorous alto voice,
never getting shrill or over-selling a good tune. This is
real Jazz singing. Along with the wisely selected rhythm section
of Bernhard Pichl, Rudi Engel and Jens Düppe, Ms. Neuffer
creates just the right mood on selections as diverse
as the bossa-nova "So Nice", and the deep bluesy
"Baby All The Time". Check out her savvy handling
of the seldom-heard verse to "Someone To Watch Over Me".
And let's not forget her really fine trumpet alongside top
tenorist Claus Koch, certainly one of the most swinging inventive
saxmen out there today. Who could ask for anything more? Keep
up the great work, Annette!
