A very nice Jazz album from Ariel. She reminds me of The Gary Burton Quartet, but of course with a woman singer. She certainly has her voice trained to hit the high notes, and loves to express that. There are quite a few songs which are incorporating Love on the album, but that is to no discount of the musicianship which is pretty good overall. Only a few tracks are instrumental. I thought it was pretty good. Check out tracks 1, 3, 6, and 9 for a few good tunes.
