THE JAZZ CHASER
Tamm E. displays a vocal texture and style that only arrives with years of due diligence in preparation along with some serious natural talent. Connect this to the extraordinary musicianship of jazz giants like Gary Bartz and Eric Reed; mix in some classic jazz favorites and do it live at Birdland.
Come on! You know this one's on time. Tamm E. Hunt Live @ Birdland is quality jazz the way it is supposed to be. Tamm E.'s improvisational vocal skills are noteworthy on every tune and outstanding on Blue Skies, God Bless the Child, and Summertime. Although she clearly has her own unique style and voice, one can unquestionably hear overtones of Little Jimmy Scott and maybe a combo of Nancy Wilson and Sassy at times. She sounds like Tamm E.; and that's a good thing.
Also the master himself, Gary Bartz,does his normal day at the office. Tone,range, timing, innovation; it's all there.
This CD is a treat, and it belongs in your collection. It's in mine!
Peace! The Jazz Chaser

Vocalise that is husky, burnin,' tight, swingin,' & in the vernacular of 'Carmen.'........ These are all the positive qualities I'm hearing in Tamm E. Hunt's new vocal CD project, ''Live @ Birdland.''
Let me add too, that Gary Bartz's reed-work is the perfect counterpoint and compliment to the project. But, let us bemoan the fact that his light has yet to fully shine on the global musical scene. The best metaphor I offer on behalf of the project is comparing it to a cocked and loaded 44-magnum...........BANG!! Now she's got our attention!
