(Review by Dr. Nick Contorno - Marquette University)
"IT'S ABOUT THE MUSIC is a world class CD. An art form. A true gift. One of the finest, most creative, ensemble recordings ever done. It is marvelous, wonderful, tremendous, fresh, exciting, superb; it more than entertains, it tells a story. Jack’s playing is outstanding. Jill ‘s gorgeous voice is thrilling. Musicianship throughout is remarkable. All emotions are covered in this musical journey. I laughed at ‘Benny‘s‘; Choked up at ‘Come in From the Rain‘; I was totally touched deeply inside. Oh, and the gorgeous strings in ‘Lonely Woman‘! " I felt Jill was singing just to me, she makes a listener feel so special, This music will be around for long time." I felt Jill was singing just to me, she makes a listener feel so special, This music will be around for long time.
I felt Jill was singing just to me, she makes a listener feel so special, This music will be around for long time."
