Personnel: Kevyn Lettau (vocals); Cameron Patrick, Shari Zippert, Norm Hughs, Adriana Zoppo, Gina Kronstadt, Vladimir Polimatidi, Pamela Gates, Kirstin Fife, Peter Kent, Armen Garabedian, Berj Garabedian (violin); Lynn Grants, Mirian Meyer, Novi Novog, Bob Becker (viola); Maurice Grants, Larry Corbett, Rudolph Stein, Stefanie Fife (cello); Jerry Jr. Watts (bass guitar); Dori Caymmi (acoustic guitar); Larry Goldings (melodica); Russell Ferrante (piano, Fender Rhodes piano); Mike Shapiro (drums); Paulinho Da Costa (percussion). Audio Mixer: Bill Schnee. Recording information: Schnee Studio; Visual Rhythm Studios. Photographer: Walter Mladina. Arranger: Dori Caymmi . It seems as if most singers eventually get around to recording a standards album. Kevyn Lettau has mostly recorded Brazilian pop/jazz throughout her career, and Bye Bye Blackbird is not a radical break from her past. The repertoire is primarily comprised of vintage pieces including "I've Got You Under My Skin" (who hasn't recorded that song?), Duke Ellington's "Love You Madly" (the most swinging performance), "It's Delovely," and "Let's Fall in Love." The backing provided by Russell Ferrante includes a tasteful string section and a rhythm section of usually light and moderately funky rhythms. If one substituted pop-ish originals for the warhorses, it would sound like a conventional Kevyn Lettau CD. But although few chances are taken, Lettau does have a fetching voice and she is always pleasant to hear. Overall this is a nice safe middle-of-the-road pop/jazz/Brazilian set. ~ Scott YanowJazzTimes (p.79) - "[A]n enjoyably laid-back affair..."

Bye Bye Blackbird
$14.79 SOUF STATE CONNECTED"BIO"The history of American music is steeped in the rich soil of the Deep South. Practically every form of music, with the exception of hip hop, which genesis is in New York, can trace its origin back down to the fertile soil of the great State of Mississippi.It makes no difference what the genre the Sip has contributed to it all, producing great artists like gospel greats the Canton Spirituals, blues legend B.B. King, jazz sensation Cassandra Wilson and R & B superstar Brandy Norwood. Ironically, the only genre of music that Mississippi has yet to produce a major star in is the only genre that doesn't have it origin in the South. But all of that will change soon if Bwill (pronounced: B-Will) and Lex Luga CEO and president respectively of the fledging Mississippi based label Souf State Connected have anything to say about it. "It is our hope that in the future Souf State Connected will break down barriers and open doors for other Mississippi artists," says Bwill. "This is definitely our time to shine. Souf State Connected is here to stay." Although the label was officially formed about four years ago when Lex and Bwill reunited at Jackson State University, where they used to freestyle around campus for friends and fellow rappers, their friendship actually extends back when they were twelve years old, listening to Ice T records and dreaming of being rappers. "We've been rapping since I was twelve," says Bwill. "Everybody in the neighborhood knew us for our raps. When we starting getting serious about rapping a lotta local labels offered us deals to sign with them, but the contracts were so bogus that we decided that it would be in our best interest to start our own label and do everything ourselves."Borrowing a few pages from fellow music entrepreneurs like Master P and Sean "Puffy" Combs, they did countless local shows slowly building their reputation in the City while pooling their meager resources together for a period of three years. Along the way they acquired enough equipment to build a small studio, plus they signed four new artists: G-Sharpe, The Infamous PJ, Wreckless the Reaper, Lil Daddy the Playa and Nevermore Production (Chapter 13) who were also busy ...
