Nice, but...

"Pleasantly unassuming vanity project. Cameron is Charlie Haden's wife, which explains the outstanding band in service of a very small voice. Still, the record as a whole has a plaintively charming appeal. There are a few moments when you wonder whether Cameron will make it to the end of the song -- especially when a high note is coming -- but, at least for the (short) 25-minute length of the CD, the simple and tasteful arrangements are quietly effective. The problem is that there are a lot of truly talented jazz singers who would be better served by Haden's patronage, and I couldn't help seeing this nice little record as someone else's big missed opportunity."
