Synopsis

Album Description

The Standards of Love is a melding of classic love songs ranging from blues to jazz to country and classic rock. Ms. Hunter interprets these songs with pathos and a unique ability to incorporate the song's style with her own nuanced interpretation and sultry timbre. Mr. Rosas' highly trained fingers and fine ear exhibit a flair for "crossover". His interpretations and improvisations denote an understanding of the individual styles through which he and Ms. Hunter travel on this intriguing journey. Light the fire, grab a glass of cab, sit back in your favorite chair, and lose yourself for a little while....

CD Reviews

This takes you back.

"Close your eyes. The leather chair feels worn, soft. Smoke lingers in the air and candles flicker. Martini glasses clink around you, but everyone is mesmerized by the sultry soprano voice coming from over by the piano.... This CD will turn your livingroom into a 1950's jazz lounge. Classic tunes performed by skilled artists - if Peggy Lee had formal training, she might sound something like this. All of the songs are great, but Peel Me A Grape is superb. A fantastic disk to add to any collection!"

Outstanding Vocals

"I was blown away by Ms. Hunter's vocals on some of my favorite standards. She shows incredible range with a wonderful jazz influence. Mr. Rosas' great jazz piano is a perfect accompaniment."
