Title: ... and she plays piano
Review: I bought this CD because of the high praise given it by Amazon reviewers. I listened through in the car with the usual trepidation one feels buying a CD by an unfamiliar artist and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the music - innovative arrangements and a captivating voice; great pitch, range, tonal colour, feel and a precise ear for languages (the French version of Michel Legrand's "You Must Believe in Spring" is to die for). There's so much musical variety on the album, I can't imagine ever getting bored with it. Then I got time to sit and read the liner notes. Carol accompanies herself on piano - and she's great! I agree - Karrin Allyson and Diana Krall had better watch their backs. I don't know where Carol's been hiding, but it's time the world recognised a great talent.
