CD Reviews

This cd is just so so, not the best not the worst

"...Weslia has a very charmiing voice. It sounds like the voice of an angel. She really knows how to sing a passionate song.Before I go any futher with my statements, I want to make a truce with the other fans of Weslia. These comments that follow are to be construcitve in nature, they are not intented to inflame anyone. At my age, I don't have any fight left in me. As I have stated, Weslia has the voice, but is this all there is? Are the any other factors that should be involved in recording a good cd?What about chemistry? What about chrisma? What about communications? How about expression? Does any of these items matter?If you answered yes to any of these questions then you need to read on. If your answer was no, then you need not read any futher.I have always felt like a big part of a good recording was the instrumentation that was used. Also, the tempo of the songs should come into play. One should ask that the tempos vary from song to song?My ideal of good instrumentation would be these examples:piano only; guitar only; bass only; violin only;
piano-bass; piano-violin; piano-guitar; trio;
quartet; acappella; acapella on first verse then acc.These examples of various instrumentations, I feel should give any cd a much needed boost and should hopefully help keep the fans maximum attention.You can call me crazy if you like, but this is me and this is what I like to hear in my music."

"Simply the best. An extraordinary talent with a superb voice accompanied by an equally talented ensemble of jazz piano and bass."
A CABARET SINGER CAN MAKE IT

"WESLA's voice is a matter of taste, but one can not say that great care was not taken into making this record a good product.Being a huge RODGERS and HART fan i suggest that you listen to this record at least twice before judging it.The problem here is that there is so many good recordings of their songs available that it is hard for new singers to enter the carousel with ELLA,SARAH,ANITA(i can't find that one)and of course FRANK and TONY.My favorites here are the lesser known YOU ARE TOO BEAUTIFUL and HE WAS TOO GOOD TO ME songs that were not recorded too often in the past.A great care has been put on the lyrics here, but it's normal since LARRY HART was the best lyric writer of his time.I miss the orchestral arrangments with songs like I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TIME IT WAS.In conclusion, i suggest to the reviewer of TEXAS to get out of his state once in a while, it might enlarge his critical wit."
