Contemporary jazz vocalists, caught in the current
trend to accelerate their careers, are often
indistinguishable from the pack, the essence of
their music lost in haste. With her release of
'Changes?, veteran singer Carmen Lundy proves that
this premise does not apply to her, rising to
that proverbial summit to enjoy the rarefied air
of the chosen few.
Graced and gifted with a smooth, effortless voice,
Lundy has been highly heralded since her landmark
2005 record, 'Live at the Madrid (Afrasia)'.
Though she has done other records since, she is
back with a supple encore of original compositions
and novel directions. She states that she
approached these songs with the guitar in mind
and, accordingly, brought in premier guitarist
Oscar Castro-Neves for his expertise in dealing
with subtle, nuanced rhythms. Though he lays back
on much of the recording, on 'Sleeping Alone' he
begins with his soft guitar sketching a distant
samba. Lundy delivers the swaying tempo as only
she can. They combine for another guitar/vocal
duet on 'Where Love Surrounds Us', where the
acoustic arrangement is sublime.
There is a definite retro feel to this production,
which hails back to a period of authentic
recording methods when musicians took their time
in composing, arranging and rehearsing. Pianist
Anthony Wonsey plays a vintage Fender Rhodes on
'So Beautiful' and 'Too Late For Love', which
features trumpet man Nolan Shaheed playing off of
the vocals. The band is fully in tune under
Lundy's spell and the result is stupendous.
Lundy attests that she is taking chances and
making changes in her approach to songwriting and
performing, and there is an underlying percussive
element drifting throughout the selections. With a
caressing style that blends intention with
improvisation, 'Changes' is that personal record
she had within her. She has let it out for the
world to hear.
