"This cd is sure to delight many fans of Clare Foster and will win her new fans. I prefer a singer to take chances, and she does it with style, confidence, and smooth grace. There are some surprises and I listened with anticipation as she delivered again and again. The key to any success for a singer, are the musicians. There is no separation of singer and band, it's as though they are one cohesive unit. The talent is evident and this is jazz in the highest form. Enjoy it!" Deborah Brown
