Description
|
|
|
|
With a triangulated background that includes Brooklyn, Paris, and New Orleans, Madeleine Peyroux gathers up myriad musical strains when she shapes an album. But this one is particularly arresting, in that she reinvents songs from the Ray Charles classic Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music (including "You Don't Know Me," "Take These Chains From My Heart," and "I Can't Stop Loving You"), as well as burnishing gems like Warren Zevon’s “Desparadoes Under the Eaves,” Randy Newman’s “Guilty,” John Hartford's "Gentle on My Mind," and Buddy Holly's “Changing All Those Changes.” "Peyroux treats a lyric like a gorgeous vase she's considering buying. She'll turn it every way, admiring its form, imagining the place and meaning it can have in her life."—NY Daily News "Vince Mendoza’s string arrangements on six tracks are beautiful, unpredictable and perfectly appropriate to the tone and mood of each song. If there is a direct musical link to Ray Charles, it’s Larry Goldings’s soulful, in-the-pocket keyboard work with the same kind of perfectly placed notes and use of space that were part of Charles’s signature."—jazz producer Michael Cuscuna
