5.0 out of 5 stars Really Great Stuff, July 7, 2002

By	W. K. Sievers "sanshiro" (Singapore) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lush Life (Audio CD)

Diane Krall is great and so is Jacintha. I don't understand why everyone is'nt running around talking about Jacintha. This recording is fantastic. Her wonderful voice draws you right in, the back up musicians are excellent, the songs are well chosen and the recording is pure audiophile heaven. This is my album to chill out on for the time being. I hope Jacintha will play in Singapore very soon.

PS Get it on vinyl if you have a turntable.

5.0 out of 5 stars COOL AS COOL CAN BE...., January 26, 2008

By	Daniel Sneddon (ONTARIO,CANADA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I PICKED UP THIS C D ON THE ADVICE OF A JAZZ MUSICIAN WHO HAS PLAYED WITH DIANA KRALL.HE LIKED THE SULTRY PRESENTATION AND HE WAS RIGHT ON!!!JACINTHA'S RENDITIONS OF "BLACK COFFEE" AND "SMILE" ARE MY FAVOURITES AND IN MY OPINION THERE IS NOT A WEAK TRACK ON THIS RELEASE.AS A RESULT I ORDERED A FEW MORE OF HER RELEASES.I LIKE THE FACT THAT SHE IS NOT "IN YOUR FACE" AS WITH SOME JAZZ VOCALISTS WHO TEND TO OVER POWER THE MICROPHONE WITH THEIR VOICE....

5.0 out of 5 stars The best yet from Jacintha., July 14, 2008

By	Music lover. (England.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lush Life (Audio CD)

I have all her albums now (apart from the "Hollywood" one) and this is my fave. Nothing unexpected to come in and jar, as sometimes is the case with other relaxing albums. Everything on here is laid back and smooth and irresistibly seductive in a lanquid, mellow way. Her first ever album ("Tribute to Ben") was just a little too slow, but everything she has done since has been a delight and this is the best yet. Sophisticated dinner party music, luxury lounge, or just plain bedtime relaxation to get you in the mood for sleep or smooching with someone special. You can't go wrong if you are partial to this kind of music.
Sultry, sophisticated, seductive, from the beautiful "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" (also love the version of this from Diana Krall) to the end track, this album is pure gold from beginning to end. Sublime.
