Title: violin w/a kick
Review: Maybe I shouldn't review this album since I'm not very familiar w/jazz or jazzy styles so what I have to say is coming from a more or less mainstream perspective regarding this genre. With that said, I'm also a sucker for live shows so I'll have to second the reviews that maintain Regina Carter is best experienced live, a fact which prompted me to buy this album after seeing a performance in '01. With this release, I sometimes feel like I'm listening to elevator music but the sultry "Forever February" redeems it somewhat; her cover of Marvin Gaye's "Don't Mess With Mr. T" is also interesting. Besides that, I should mention that Carter is an enchanting violinist. Go see her live performances.
Is the review positive or negative?
