chris_b Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 She's lost me with all this theatre stuff. Sorry. I preferred her being a musician rather than a "performer". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pineweasel Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) I thought her old stuff was impressive but this new album is amazing Edited March 19, 2016 by pineweasel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julesb Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 I just loved this. Brilliant effortless playing with some performance lunacy thrown in for good measure. Either way, what a talent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ped Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Loved her Radio album but the newest one is a bit more all over the place but I'm sure it'll grow on me once I get more used to it. I really like her playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaypup Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 That was an enjoyable Sunday Morning jaunt - thanks! Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobodysprefect Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I still prefer her to just shut up and play. But then jazz vocals are a non-starter for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 After reading this thread I downloaded 4 Esperanza albums via Amazon Prime music. Very pleasant indeed, think I'm probably going to buy the others come payday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) This is all very great , but when she picks up the Fender its just some great singing and playing. @ 6.00 minutes in. She plays Wayne Shorter's Endangered Species at 11 40. its absolute killer bass playing.
