Cassandra Wilson
Loverly is Grammy-winning vocalist Cassandra Wilson's first album of standards since her 1988 album Blue Skies. The record is a tantalizing, rhythmically driven collection of classic songs given new luster with a top-drawer band that includes Marvin Sewell on guitar, Jason Moran on piano, Herlin Riley on drums, Lonnie Plaxico and Reginald Veal on bass, and Lekan Babalola on percussion, with a special guest appearance by trumpeter Nicholas Payton.
