Positive Comments: Nice laid back “Killer Joe” horn arrangement and what a nice surprise when that languid vocal comes in. Echoes of Maria Muldaur, Joni Mitchell, Diana Krall, Bobbi Gentry, and well, whoever this is singing. I love this vocal timbre and performance–there’s a range from smoky to an almost trumpet tone with cutting high mids when she pushes. I love that part of the bridge where the female vocal comes in with “nobody knows I’m there”. There is so much to like here–I really enjoyed this!!
Constructive Comments: Real horns needed. There are things to tweak in the arrangement IMO but that would be a day spent thinking about it.
