I first heard Banu Gibson on a TV show that I was on calledÂ
Everyday with Joan Lunden. I was in the band, and when Banu and
her group came out, I was struck by their energy and rhythm. That
was 1989, and here we are, a little while later and in a new
century, and the rhythm and energy I first heard then continue
here on this CD. Supported by first-rate sidemen, including Jake
hanna and "newcomer"Â Bucky Pizzarelli, Banu puts her personal
stamp on these songs as only she can. She continues to be
original, fun, personal, entertaining and swinging. I know you'll
enjoy this sensational CD. - John Pizzarelli (son of
"newcomer")

Reviews: This set is a change of pace for singer Banu Gibson, who is usually
heard with her New Orleans Hot Jazz Band. Instead, she is accompanied
by a quartet comprised of guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli, her regular
pianist David Boeddinghaus, bassist Bill Huntington, and drummer Jake
Hanna, with occasional appearances by trumpeters Connie Jones or
Jon-Erik Kellso and Brian Ogilvie on tenor and clarinet. Also a bit
different is the repertoire, which, instead of being from the 1920s and
'30s, dates primarily from the late '30s and 1940s. What is the same as
in the past is the consistent high quality of Gibson's vocals and her
enthusiasm and sensitivity for the music. Among the highlights are "I
Don't Know Enough About You," "Memphis in June," "Put the Blame on
Mame," "There's a Lull in My Life," and "There Will Never Be Another
You."
