Product Description
Down Beat (p. 69) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Spalding sings like a cross between Minnie Riperton and Flora Purim, writes in a style recalling Milton Nascimento, and seems indebted to the rich melodies of Stevie Wonder. Her sons sing when she lets the rhythms fly high..." JazzTimes (p. 111) - "Spalding's voice slips through each of her intricately crafted arrangements as if imbued with the spirit of Flora Purim." Vibe (p. 62) - "Spalding has fashioned something cohesive and diverse, calling upon a strong coalition of musicians and the depths of her own skill."

| LOVELY VOICE SHE IS AMAZING ON BASS & VOCALS AS WELL. I HIGHLY RECOMMED THIS CD. TRULY Paul By paul.fauteux (Qc, Canada)  |
| Esperanza's 2nd CD is Fabulous! Four and a half Stars!! Young jazz star Esperanza Spalding is amazing: she can sing, she can play a blazing upright double bass, and she is an effective, engaging composer. By Raidrone (Florida Keys) |
| Good album. The album is very musical with a wide range of sounds. The fact that it has such a wide range of sounds makes it hard to get that total album vibe. By reavesda (Detroit, MI, USA)  |
