4.0 out of 5 stars ...And Play Good She Does, August 20, 2004

By	CharlieGreene "CharlieG" (Satelite Mexico) - See all my reviews

I discovered Joyce C. by acciden't and it's been a big surprise. On the surface you could say it's like a mix of Larry Carlton meets Candy Dulfer, but after you get in it's a whole different thing. All tracks are good and intelligent compositions. Joyce's playing is superb. But maybe the reason why I liked the album is the reason why some didn't like it as much, and it's that the album sounds "amateurish", that "she is not there yet"... so great!, because that makes the music fresh, new and upbeat. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great CD for "chillin' out" to, May 6, 2004

By	Azmat Bhatty "ozbot87" (Los Alamos, NM United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

"This Girl's Got to Play" is one of those CDs I have been looking for to put in my collection. It's not the greatest CD I have ever heard, nor does it do anything groundbreaking in terms of smooth jazz, but it does an excellent job of making me want to listen to the CD over and over again. Songs such as "Expression", "Camelback", "Green Impala", and "Toast and Jam" is the typical Cooling guitar flair, which is a good thing. Cooling's vocal tracks ("No More Blues", "This Girls Got to Play", and "Talk") do not provide the dynamic effect on the smooth jazz genre as say, Anita Baker, Diana Krall, or Sade, but she does manage to keep the tunes going and make it a pleasant listening experience.

Give this CD a try, chances are there is something you'll like on this CD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good CD, but...., May 25, 2004

By	M. Elmore "Mitch" (Las Vegas, NV United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have all of Joyce's albums and I think "This Girl's Got to Play" is right up there with "Third Wish". I especially enjoyed "Wizard", "Green Impala" and "Expression". I was disappointed that she did not really show her guitar acumen on more of the tracks. However, I think most Cooling fans will appreciate this CD. Joyce, please on future albums, do what you do so well in concert, scat and play. Enjoy!!
