Ms Lee has a warm, brassy edged contralto voice - there's a little bit of smoke in her lower register and her high notes are round and sweet. She articulates precisely and phrases well. She can kick up her heels and get down with the best of 'em - but she also has a mellow, gentle side - and that's the side on display on "Seasons of Love."
"Seasons of Love" is a set of set of twelve songs - most of them are standards, but three of 'em are originals by Ms Lee. The standards include "Old Folks," (OK, this is not my favorite song - but Ms Lee's version has a warm, nostalgic quality that I like), "'Tis Autumn," a lovely version of "My One and Only Love," and "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most," (which is one of my favorite songs and Ms Lee's version ranks with the best I've ever heard). Ms Lee's band is outstanding: pianist Tilden Webb, guitarist Richard Ring, John Clayton at the bass and drummer Jeff Hamilton - and the great tenor saxman David Murray sits in on four songs. There's nothing flashy going on here - Ms Lee's voice is the "star" - and the guys turn in a lovely, subtle, understated set supporting her.
Bottom Line: This is mellow jazz for a sunny Sunday afternoon with a glass of your favorite libation in one hand and your significant other's hand in the other. ~Gary Connely
