Review #1: The Midwest Record

JOY MOVER: Hmm, Ira Sullivan (who shows up here) bounced you on his knee when you were a kid and your brother, Bob (who shows up here) works with Esparanza Spaulding. The chops list can go on and on but it’s better to listen to this jazz singer that’s been keeping it bottled up for way too long than blather this background stuff. A dazzling debut that mixes pop, originals and chestnuts into a stew where the old seasonings create a new flavor. She’s got so much energy and octane powering her that she should feel free to give up her day job any time she wants as she’s built a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to her door. The real deal throughout.
