Today's Listen:
Camille Thurman -- INSIDE THE MOMENT
Camille Thurman(tenor sax & vocals), Ben Allison(bass), Billy Drummond(drums), Mark Whitfield(guitar)
Chesky Recording using MQA technology. Recording takes some getting used to. Her sax sounds very subdued. Sometimes you think they are playing to the technology. Very small, but very enthusiastic audience. Sometimes it seems as if their applause is the focus of the recordings engineers.
She is really a very talented singer, but as leader and Tenor Sax player, she needs to be more out front. She probably will as her career goes on.
I thought 'Cherokee' was the best tune, also the band's encore number.

On headphones you are constantly looking over your shoulder to see where the applause is coming from. Strange.
