Testimonial for Pat Watson's new CD Feeling Good
"what a fab cd you have put together with tony and your musician friends!
your voice is clear, it reaches out, is totally pitched and toned and bang on capturing the lyrics and the songs . . .
listening just got better and better and better with each cut . . . you are VERY brave to launch with the standards you chose !!!
"it's an alerting moment for the listener to move beyond the "originals" to take in your challenge
version and you nail it, girl ! ! ! as i listened to "fever" for example, somewhere around 10 bars,
it was YOU not peggy !!! WOW !!! that takes some clear presence on your part !!!
"the Jobim "wave" takes you and the band to a harmonic rush ! like wave and ocean: not two !
the gospel work is worthy of joined hands in praise !!!!!! (cute phrasing, eh !!!)
"anyway . . . got to take the time to listen again . . . that's it: it's a listening cd !
not background music . . . like being in a club, a live show, with you all being in the spotlight !"
