Babbie Green is a modern-day troubadour who delivers musical messages about life's sights and scenes. Babbie Green is the daughter of Johnny Green, whose achievements include participating in the composing of one of the most recorded popular songs in history, "Body and Soul." But unlike the minstrels of yore and her father's songs, Green writes and sings, sometimes with help, about the trials and tribulations of a more complex turn-of-the-century society and those who experience them. These conditions are dealt with by a variety of songs done in a number of rhythms and tempos performed on a two-CD set by Babbie Green on piano and vocals, often helped by Laurie McIntosh and/or Kirsten Benton. The desperate loneliness often created by impersonal relationships is captured by a poignant "Anybody Out There." On a brighter note, "You're My Kind" reflects the aggressiveness of modern women who, when finding a potential mate, make him aware she wants him and it's not likely she's going to let him get away. Funny, in a wry sort of way, it is on the agenda with such ditties as "Not That I Care," which deals with shifting, puzzling relationships among and between the sexes. While most of the songs are suitable for cabaret, there are several which come across as modern folk songs, such as "Love on Her Mind." The many ways the songs are sung are as imaginative as the lyrics themselves. For instance, a kind of gossipy session in "Million Seller" is done as a round by the three singers. The compelling creativity of this album notwithstanding, most will need at least two, and maybe more, listens to get through the 29 songs on the play list. But the happy result will be well worth the necessary investment of time. ~ Dave Nathan

$16.45 CD Review: ESPRESSO JAZZ “After Hours” By Kevin McVeigh 4/2/07 It’s late in the evening at my family’s summer rental at the shore. South Jersey, 1957. The little ones are in bed, the dishes are cleared, the lights are lowered, and my parents are listening to music with a few old friends. The clinking of ice cubes in the highball glasses, the faint glow of cigarettes, and the sound of the music from the record player: Mabel Mercer, Blossom Dearie, Lee Wiley, Erroll Garner, and of course, Old Blue Eyes himself. It’s not a nightclub, just a little bungalow by the beach, but it has the aura of an archetype. And that archetype is “After Hours.”Sandi Russell and Barbara Hilton, the anchoring duo of the often larger ensemble, Espresso Jazz, have now issued their first duet recording. It’s a smooth and slow, sexy and stylish collection of intimate tunes that they call, you guessed it, “After Hours.” They’ve brewed up the perfect late night concoction for your thirsty ears, your battle-scarred heart and your longing soul, with just enough upbeat numbers to keep you from sliding off your barstool or your sofa as their other languorous tunes carry you away into the land ...
