"I bought the reissue of this CD in 2001 and it quickly turned into one of my favorites that I've gone back to again and again. I find Miss Scott's vocals to be strong, sultry and seductive. Her songs are wonderful, especially her vocal performance on "Let Me Be The One" (the opening track which was produced by legendary George Duke). Her versions of "The Summer Knows" and "Bird of Beauty" are also outstanding. George Duke produced a second cut, "I'm Calling You", which is another exceptional track.



If you want to buy into the hype of Krall and Jones, that's your business but Marilyn's voice is their equal (if not superior) and her song selections, including the ones she penned herself are terrific. Jazz vocals at their finest. Another great release by Miss Scott is her latest CD, Nightcap, which I downloaded from iTunes last year. It's a great collection of songs from the Great American Songbook and this time the whole shebang was produced by George Duke. The fact that this supremely talented musician and producer works with Marilyn should tell you alot about Marilyn's talent as well."

"This was my first Marilyn CD and a nice one it is! Marilyn has a beautiful voice and this cd showcases that voice with some smooth jazz, r&b, pop standards... her version of the 'The Summer Knows' is one of the best i've heard, and a nice cover of Jean Carne's 'I'm In Love Once Again'. More should know Marilyn."
