Which I mention only because it was interesting for me to compare the songs on this CD as sung by both Anita and Roberta, as it may be for you too.The two songs are "Whisper Not" and "Fly Me to the Moon" and I have to say, with all the objectivity I can apply, both were won by Anita, the latter by at least 10 lengths. Main reason for both: Anita let the lyrics and the beat flow naturally like water down a stream; Roberta allowed theatrics to upstage her natural talents which are second to none.Also, Roberta's lyrics sound labored on most of the songs on her latest CD, as opposed to those on her previous ones.One of my favorite songs of all time is Poor Butterfly which should project the innocence and meekness of the abandoned Japanese girl the song is about. Roberta starts out in that vein but as the song goes on she becomes more aggressive and louder than I would have liked her to be, so I have to give her interpretation less than five stars.Roberta at her incomparable best is in evidence on two or three songs on this CD, the best by far being "Close to You". Anyone who doesn't appreciate the emotion of every word, every nuance and everything left out has to be deaf or dead.I've been selling Roberta Gambarini to every music lover I know since discovering her on her first CD. So my standards for her have been as high as high C.I don't think her latest CD quite measures up to that standard, despite the fact that her voice is more spectacular than ever, which can also be a minus because a great vocal performance should be totally about the song, not the singer's voice and the ability to wipe out every other singer who ever lived, which Roberta can easily do without making a special effort to prove it.I think appropriate bottom-line words would be Taste and Less is More, which Roberta has always exhibited in spades but on this CD I think she loses a couple of points for reasons cited.- As for my comparison of jazz singers, Anita O'Day is not only the greatest ever but the greatest musician to ever inspire the instrumentalists she worked with, because she was always one of them.- Roberta Gambarini is easily the greatest of all current singers, jazz or otherwise. If she had been singing in those most memorable years of the 1930s to the 1960s, she would have been right up there at the top with the best of them.Jim Donovan ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars ROBERTA SHADOW OF EXCELLENCE *by P***. on Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2016* Roberta has a truly magnificent voice and she sings all the classic songs straight from her heart - excellent album and any true lover of quality music should definitely buy this album - georgous stuff! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars are are really great. Five stars all the way *by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2015* This is an outstanding album, as one might expect from the marvelously talented Ms. Gambarini. Her vocals are as close to flawless as they can be, and the accompanists, led by pianist George Cables, are are really great.
