Nothing I have heard by Melody Gardot before or since this (her second album) has risen to the level of beauty and brilliance this CD achieves.  I generally only listen to the first 10 tracks which make for a very rewarding listen.  The last 2 tracks, a cover of "Over The Rainbow" and an orchestral version of "If The Stars Were Mine", are less interesting to me.  Part of the great musical success of this album is certainly the marvelous string arrangements of Vince Mendoza which serve to musically support and emotionally enhance Ms. Gardot's songs.  An album I listen to frequently and really, really love.

Fantastic.

nobody gives him enough - or any - credit for mastering the left-handed tenor. That's even more of a bitch than the Albert clarinet.
