Close Your Eyes Stacey Kent SKU: PPANCJS9737 Barcode: 5060149622858 47.00 £47.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure Released Date: 27th July 2019 Buying Format: 180g 2LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Kent’s debut release from 1997 reissued as a double album on vinyl. Upon its original release, the album was the best-selling British jazz album of the year and her impressive discography now extends to twelve releases to date. A key ingredient in Kent’s success are the musicians that she chooses to accompany her. They are no mere backing musicians but are some of the finest musicians around who together do nothing but enhance her vocals. Several of her companions on this release have featured on subsequent releases. Along with Tomlinson on the saxophone are Colin Oxley guitar, David Newton piano, Andrew Cleyndert, bass and Steve Brown drums. With the exception of one piece, all of the musical arrangements are provided by Tomlinson. To quote from Humphrey Lyttleton who supplied the liner notes for the original release back in 1996, “What makes Stacey Kent so remarkable is her “sound”. Strong and clear, it has the tang of Vermouth.” Her delivery is full of joy and enthusiasm and this clearly shows in everything that she does. All of the songs will be familiar to lovers of American popular songs of the 1930s and 1940s. Perhaps most outstanding of all is the bossa nova treatment of “Close Your Eyes”. But there are many other gems to enjoy such as “More Than You Know” and “There’s A Lull In My Life”. Many of the songs are further enhanced by solo contributions from Tomlinson’s Stan Getz inspired tenor saxophone and Oxley’s mellow guitar. Kent could not possibly have any better piano accompanist than David Newton, who has provided great support to a plethora of vocalists over the years. He always seems to know exactly what chord or instrumental fill would be most appropriate and never puts a foot wrong throughout the whole album.
