BSH was, as ever, ahead of the pack posting it's review on 5th of October ready for the October the 8th release. Lance also gave it the thumbs up. Mr Liddle concluded his review with: "I could write about this one forever - it's a milestone in jazz singing - but I just want to listen to it forever or at least until her next album"
We do our best!
