Excellent jazz vocals and solos by supporting musicians done in a jazz swing style of classic and not so classic tunes. The last cut (title cut) is a haunting original by the artist.

CD Reviews
Simply Wonderful!

"If you like superb jazz vocals, this CD is for you. I'd suggest a nice fire and a glass of wine to go with. The songs are sung and performed extremely well. The instrumentalists are fantastic. My favorite cuts are "Sugar" and "Easy Street". All 11 tunes are great, though. This is a CD you'll want to pick up."
Very nice!

"Terriffic Straight Ahead Singing by one of the Twin Cities finest vocalist, Sue Tucker. Superbly backed up by the Wolverines Quintet, with the addion of her brother, Trumpeter Jim Oatts from Des Moines. Sue's CD swings from the outset and you'll play it again and again."
Familiar and smoky voice

"Sue has what I like in a jazz vocalist. She sounds familiar and has a hint of smokiness to her voice. I love her sultry and sassy rendition of "Undecided" and the wonderfully spinning "Waltz for Debbie". A swingin' band, too! Overall, a beautiful program of music."

"Sue Tucker has come up with a great CD. It's a voice that will please any jazz enthusiast. She has surrounded herself with a fine rhythm section and talented soloists. The selection of the material she sings lends itself well to her vocal talents. I highly recommend this CD."
