Quotes About the Music  

 

“Just a little note to say what a great CD you've released. The tunes are terrifically performed, wonderfully produced, and most important, they  are excellent compositions. Debbie's voice is the perfect combination of great pitch and beautiful word painting whether it be light and breezy Latin, more gutsy Blues, or more traditional popular stylings, and Erik's trumpet plays off her words with masterful improvisations, just the right amount of compliment to the voice mixed with creative and very tasty solo work. Congratulations on your truly excellent artistry, I'm proud to have this disc in  my collection and listen to it often.”
Best wishes,

“ First, about the album.  I found the name to be interesting.  I appreciate probably more than most the fact that it is all original compositions; I know how much it means to you to be known primarily as a composer.  This album really demonstrates how great a composer you are (but not limited to this genre).  There is not one song on the album that I do not just love.  I have listened on my main, if dated, stereo; on my "boom-box" in the basement in my shop; on headphones (Koss over-the-ears) using the portable CD player we bought on the trip to LA; and on my computer's cheap-ass speakers (as I write this).   While trying to deliberately find flaws would destroy the enjoyment of listening to the music, I have noticed absolutely no distractions at all.  Everything is perfect.  Tastefully done.  I like the little touches, the slight echo on the dream sequence for example.  And in case you might think I didn't notice, I love the mix; I really appreciate the fact that the percussion, particularly the snare's, does not mask out the music.  And the performances, my-O-my!  Fantastic!  Debbie has never sounded better.  I love your horn work.  Everything is just top notch!  I've laid in bed at two in the morning with the lights out just listening, letting the music flow through me - what an emotional experience, what fun!!!!”

“Thanks for sending the Satie-Lease CD.  We played it through twice last evening and enjoyed every minute.  The songs are interesting, her voice is lovely, with a great range, and the instrumentals are just right.  All in all, it's a neat package and hopefully they will get their "break."
