5.0 out of 5 stars FLAWLESS. LaVerne who? Nevermind, just buy this record!, February 6, 2000
This review is from: Blues in City (Audio CD)
What did we ever do without those listening centers in music stores? I had no idea who this lovely woman was when I put on the headphones, but from the first few chords and notes from this jazz singer, it was love at first listen. Oh my, is this good. My Diana Krall cd's will take a ride in the backseat until I get a few dozen more spins of Ms. Butler. Also being unknown to me is the record label, MAXJAZZ, and I will be exploring their website to see other artists they have. Perfectly produced by Bruce Barth, who also plays piano throughout beautifully. The packaging should also be noted as well. A great quote in the inside jacket by Ms. Butler states: "I am a jazz singer...the vibe is in the blues". Truer words have not been spoken.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty fabulous..., July 23, 2002

This review is from: Blues in City (Audio CD)
A nice understated singer who doesn't have to caterwaul or stray outside the boundaries of the tune to be hip. With each disc Ms. Butler gets better and better. In my opinion, she's the best vocalist on MaxJazz -- and really gorgeous a la Horne. I hate to use the overused word, but "cool" suits her.
Good songwriter, too.

philip bernaldez (manila, phils. and ny,ny) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blues in City (Audio CD)
laverne is a fine discovery for me. her style is subdued yet sexy. she stands out with jazzy tunes and just as good with her bluesy style. this album will make you check the store for her next recording.
