My Dream is You by April Barrows - DeepRiffs

ALBUM

April Barrows is a very appealing singer who swings and gives just the right amount of emotion to lyrics. What is unusual about this set is that she composed ten of the dozen songs (three of which are co-written with David Hungate who doubles on guitar and trombone) and that they are strong enough to become standards if this CD is discovered by others. The vocalist is assisted by a high-quality group of mostly obscure players from Nashville: trumpeter George Tidwell, Denis Solee on reeds, guitarist Andre Reiss, pianist Beegie Adair, bassist Roy Huskey, Jr., drummer Chris Brown and occasionally Farrell Morris on vibes in addition to Hungate. Barrows uplifts "I'm Beginning to See the Light," but it is the inclusion of so much excellent new material that is most intriguing and makes this a highly recommended set.
