This is an amazing album. It is tough for an artist to make a commercially successful career in this genre, but if anyone deserves to do so, Juliet Kelly does.
Every song on the album is a masterpiece, beautifully sung, supported by backing musicians of the highest calibre. Tony Kofi's sax playing is of particularly high quality, but in truth the four musicians and Juliet gel as a breathtaking, totally coherent unit.
This album can transport one in spirit to one of those exquisite small jazz clubs such as the 606 Club in Fulham; although not a live album, it has a totally live feel, full of energy and enthusiasm, spontaneity and improvisational skill.
The icing on the cake for an audiophile such as myself (Meridian CD player, ATC pre-amp and active loudspeakers) is that it is superbly recorded, one of the best technically recorded and engineered albums that I possess in fact. The double icing is, as others have mentioned, the version of Sade's Your Love Is King; it is hard to believe that anyone could improve on that masterpiece, but Juliet has done so.
This CD is being spun again and again in my player. Highly recommended.

I'm wondering if the reviewer below could have been listening to the same album! The songs are full of positive lyrics and the music is uplifting and inspiring. Juliet's voice is moving and full of emotion. I suppose everyone has a different take on things but for me this album was a totally joyful experience. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

From what I've read of the reviews, Juliette Kelly is a rising star. And listening to her debut album, she deserves all the praise - her voice is magical, her interpretation of the songs is always sensitive and inventive. A talented song-writer too - beautiful compositions, musically and lyrically. Thoroughly recommended - catch her on the way up!

flat not flat
Although in tune, I found this album flat in expression. I don't know whether it was the recording or the singer's inability to bring any feeling to the words she was singing but... Read more

One of the best albums I've heard this year!
I hadn't come across Juliet Kelly before a friend lent me her CD and I wasn't really a jazz fan but her voice must be one of the most beautiful I've heard and her songs are really... Read more

Outstanding - a "must have" for any CD collection
I'd never heard of Juliet Kelly when I happened to see one of her performances at the Pizza on the Park whilst on a visit to London but I was absolutely blown away! Read more
