CD Reviews

I'll Take Romance

Ted Hogarth | Chicago, Illinois | 12/08/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is full of jazz classics that sound fresh and new. The arrangements breath new life into the pieces and showcase each member of the group along with Ms. Thomas's beautiful voice. It's the perfect CD for a cold winters night by the fire."
