Album Details 2007 Release of Teal's Seventh Album and her Second for Sony Music. "Paradisi Carousel" is a Rich, Often Sublime Set of Succulent Tunes Sung by a Voice Lined with Velvet. Teal's Voice Can Best Be Compared to Being a Karen Carpenter for the 21st Century, a British Diana Krall. Her Loyal Fans Always Knew She Had the Best Voice in the UK, Now the World Will Know Too. "i Spent an Entire Year Working on This, Which, for Me, is Very Unusual," She Says. "in the Typical Jazz Tradition, I Normally Take No More Than Six Weeks, So it Would have Been Awful If I Didn't have Something to Show for all Those Additional Months and all that Extra Effort, Don't You Think?... Music is a Melting Pot," Clare Says. "And That's What I'm all About, Ultimately, a Melting Pot with 70 Years of Music at My Fingertips". "Paradisi" is Latin for Grapefruit and Teal Has Quite a Thing for Grapefruit. "it's a Much Misunderstood Fruit," She Reasons, "And I Thought it was High Time Somebody Stuck Up for It!" Similar CDs

CD ReviewsUK's LIKEABLE CLARE'S EXPANDED REPERTOIRE HITS ITS TARGET! A. POLLOCK | PLYMOUTH, DEVON United Kingdom | 08/06/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "Clare's latest album is less jazz-tinged and more contemporary in approach with some emphasis on five of her own co-written numbers which have melodic flair with BABY, I'M COMING HOME and MISSING YOU aided by backing chorus while the album's title song has an appealing guitar backing. Looking back, there's DON'T LET THE SUN CATCH YOU CRYING -originally a 1964 hit for Liverpool's Gerry and the Pacemakers and The Four Tops 1966 Motown best-seller REACH OUT (I'LL BE THERE) which have now been reinvented as tasteful ballads. The lovely Fran Landesman/Simon Wallace stunner WHAT LOVE KNOWS makes perfect material for Clare's emotive style and I also liked the cha-cha rhythms of ALONE WITH YOU; the soaring and free-wheeling delight LIGHT FLIGHT and the more energetic pacing of BREAKOUT. Clare's voice is never less than brilliant throughout and I award full marks to her musicians and the sparkling arrangements also.
Whilst this album may not wholly satisfy those who prefer her jazz style, I am of the opinion this expanded range of material will broaden Clare's fan-base considerably, with repeat plays certainly gaining kudos for the album's production values and allowing the songs to become familiar and meaningful.
