Review by Шуба Норка

The album The Songs Carmen Sang by Carol Sloane is a delightful collection of jazz standards that pays tribute to the legendary singer Carmen McRae. Sloane's velvety voice and impeccable phrasing make this album a true gem for jazz lovers.

The album features a mix of well-known tunes such as "I'm Glad There Is You" and "I'll Be Seeing You," as well as lesser-known gems like "You Don't Know Me" and "Speak Low." Sloane's interpretations of these songs are fresh and vibrant, yet respectful of the original versions.

One standout track is "The Ballad of Thelonious Monk," a tribute to the legendary pianist and composer. Sloane's vocals are perfectly complemented by the piano of Norman Simmons, creating a hauntingly beautiful rendition of this lesser-known Monk composition.
