Soulful, playful and haunting contemporary jazz that takes you places you haven't been before with jazz standards!Barbara Steel sings in the true spirit of jazz -- taking a song and "swinging" it with updated rhythms and improvising on the phrasing and lyrics.
The sequence on This Satin Doll is a soulful, bittersweet, playful and haunting meditation on love in all its grit and glory.
Barbara is thrilled to be accompanied by such accomplished musicians who made her sound come alive: Marc Puricelli, Patience Higgins, Jon Weiss, Victor Jones, Greg Skaff, Mark Peterson, Herschel Dwellingham, Lou Soloff, Lonny Plaxico and many other great musicians.
Here's a little something about each song:
Satin Doll (Acid jazz with an urban feel. The original lyrics of this song ooze sexual innuendo and this new version takes that lead a step farther. Listen for the bi-femme fatale, always a true Satin Doll!)
(I'd be Surprisingly)Good For You (Latin jazz. In the true spirit of jazz, taking a Broadway show tune (from Evita) and "swinging" it.)
Baby, It's Cold Outside (Traditional jazz with role reversals and a new setting for the conversation (a bar). Let's face it roles have changed and this interpretation brings it up to date.)
I Should've Known Better (A Love Song. Surprising rendition of a Beatles classic. Sweet and haunting look at one's self in a new love affair.)
Comes Love (Hot, bluesy, smooth jazz rendition of this classic. A bit cynical throughout and kinda gritty toward the end. All about what a woman can do to you and how nothing can be done...)
Love For Sale (Traditional jazz with new groove. Great piano and flute solos.)
What a Little Moonlight Can Do (Sweet and sexy version with a nice groove, traditional jazz.)
