It seems like forever ago that I first heard this CD, my Papa had gotten it with his truck when I was a child. I loved it, thought that it was great current artists were not butchering classics. I eventually absorbed the CD into my collection which was stolen along with my car 8 years ago. I couldn't remember the actual title of the CD, and finally a couple months ago it came to me to search "AT & T presents" on Amazon where I can find just about anything and there it was. My Papa was also glad to have a copy of this CD again. I highly recommend it as Joni Mitchell, Gwen Stefani, and Stevie Nicks particularly shine. There is a little gem from Sandra Berhardt and Bjork, respectively as well.

I agree with the consensus here. I had no idea some of these singers did a classic jazz album. Classic bluesy jazz by Trisha Yearwood? Sounds odd, but it was simply brilliant. And of course, Natalie Cole and Joni Mitchell are genius as usual ... but Stevie Nicks was amazing singing the classic "At Last". And Bjork gave her own special twist to "Gloomy Sunday".

This would definitely be a great gift idea for the jazz aficionado. Don't be to impressed with the packaging - the artwork is bland, and there are no inserts. But the contents are a must for any jazz fan. The complete track listing includes:

1. Almost Blue: Gwen Stefani
2. You've Changed: Paula Cole
3. But Beautiful: Shawn Colvin
4, Good Guy: Trisha Yearwood
5. Is That All There Is?: Sandra Bernhard
6. Good Morning Heartache: Sheryl Crow
7. They Can't Take That Away from Me: Natalie Cole
8. At Last: Stevie Nicks
9. Gloomy Sunday: Bjork
10. Stormy Weather: Joni Mitchell

5.0 out of 5 stars A Shimmering Gem, November 3, 2007

I've got an extensive collection of CDs spanning multiple genres that I've ripped to my computer. This is the first CD that I deliberately used lossless compression on, because I didn't want to miss any subaudible bit on this masterwork of musical genius!

Besides kudos to the artists and everyone involved in this production, I have to give a marketing genius award to AT&T here. There is nothing in the history of free giveaways through the mail that matches this, at least in my experience. It was free as the AT&T Worldnet software was squeezed into a small space on the same CD. I will never part with mine. Contrast that with how many billions of America Online CDs have ended up in landfills. So, this CD represents environmental genius as well!

Completely unexpected, this CD blew me away from the first time I listened to it. 5 stars.
