4.0 out of 5 stars
Amazing Grace!!!!!!!!!!!,
By David J. Taylor "David Taylor, Story Taylor" (Monroeville, Alabama) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Grace (Audio CD)
Surprise! Surprise! It took me a while to warm up to this album, especially coming in on the heels of Z's "Everlasting", but once I figured out that you have to turn it up really, really loud to hear her singing, I realized that it's an outstanding album. The music is pulse pounding, complete with a vibration that you just don't hear too often (no doubt due to the awesomely authentic recording from the Cheskys.) And that voice....oh so clever and it may be the best voice since Sade. If you really listen closely, you'll hear Rachel doing a lot of improvising with her voice and singing in different ranges. In fact, the whole album is something...different. And even the familiar songs come out in a different light. But the songs with the singing in them take the cake. My favorites are "Protect this child", "Pain" and "Grace."
In fact, I can't get enough of "Grace" as it caught my attention immediately and now I have to listen to it at least three times in a row every time. It's going to be the "Song of the Year" from my perspective. Now, of course, I'm one of Z's biggest fans, so you can take this review with a grain of salt, but I feel that it was a surprising album. Just remember to play it loud so that you can hear everything and that it may take a while for it to grow on you.

After having all of Rachel's cd's, this may be the best till now.
Fantastic voice, excellent piano playing, perfect recording quality. A cd for latenite listening. I think Rachel is growing with each cd she records. What are we all lucky for the future...

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Grace (Audio CD)
I bought this CD on a whim as I had never heard of Rachel Z before the night when I ordered it. This is definitely not a conventional-sounding album. As one reviewer stated, it takes a little bit of warming up; for me it was literally just a little bit, like a couple of minutes because I found the compositions and her voice to be original in an inventive and pleasing way.
I am not sure how to describe the tracks or her voice. About her voice - she sounds very natural and unprocessed, and sings just like the mood of the song really strikes her. The piano is excellent. Everything blends together nicely and I found myself really paying attention to hear what was coming next, and appreciating the musicianship and the way everything just came together so nicely. It's the kind of music to sit back and savor late at night and let it take over your mood. After hearing this I'm going to buy her other CD's as well.
