5.0 out of 5 stars Voice like the milk of a goddess, December 11, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: One Man's Trash Is Another Man's Treasure (Audio CD)

This is my all-time favorite CD. It's jazzy, smooth and a little torchy in places and sung by a woman with a voice like milk from a goddess. I have almost worn a hole in this disc. I'm not a music critic or even very eloquent, but I had to take this opportunity to encourage folks to buy this while it's still available! This group would clearly have been a major success if the lives of several band members hadn't been cut short in a tragic accident. The world truly lost an amazing group, and all of Atlanta mourned.

I was fortunate enough to see this band perform several times - including their last performance the night of the tragic car accident that killed two of the band members. The Jody Grind was all about Kelly Hogan - a singer who deserves much more recognition than she has received to date. While Hogan's later work has been mostly rooted in alt-country, the Jody Grind was eclectic to the extreme - jazz, R&B, rock, and soul all mixed together. To put it simply, if you are a fan of great female vocalists, you need to seek this CD out. While Hogan is best appreciated in person, this will give you a taste. After you've digested "One Man's Trash" be sure to follow up with her solo recordings. Everything she does is worth hearing.

Even though this album came out in '91, I was never exposed to it until '96. Upon listening for the first time, I thought that it was ok...but not what I needed to stay awake for my graveyard shift. A couple of days later I listened again, when I could relax and take it all in, and was transfixed by this beautiful woman's voice taking me away to a smoke-filled jazz lounge. I could almost picture her sprawled over a piano, delivering these delicious jazz melodies.

Since then, whenever I feel like relaxing, I will have a couple of cocktails, put this disk into the cd player, and be swept away once again. I never grow tired of this one.
