Kerry's latest CD is Sail Away on Blue Toucan Music (http://www.bluetoucanmusic.com ) KERRY LINDER new Blue Toucan CD is superb and reflective, SAIL glittered WITH ME. Born of those lovely Netherland Antilles in the Carribean-Linder sings in English and Portugese. Her voice is soft and smooth, creating enchanting scenarios with a band of swift reparte; percussionist, Mauro Refosco, whose work with David Byrne and The Lounge Lizards is highly regarded, cellist Eric Friedlander, saxophonist Paulo Levi, among other highly regarded. Guitarist Paulo Andre Tavares is responsible for all the great arrangements. Dick Crockett STILL ANOTHER JAZZ SHOW “The Voice" 88.7fm Sacramento, Ca.

Ms Linder sings in English and displays the proper accents and inflections when vocalizing in Portuguese. In effect, she's a smooth operator, possessing a crystalline vocal style, via an airy and unhurried mode of execution. Many of these works are founded upon soft woodwinds, gently pulsating rhythms, accordion interludes, contrasting accents and other embellishments. Ms Linder gives Horace Silver's classic jazz tune, “Song For My Father," a mid-tempo, yet peppery Brazilian type overhaul. Here, she scats in Portuguese as this piece also features trumpeter Michael Phillip Mossman's profoundly stated lines.

Overall, Ms Linder adds just enough spice to the entire program without saturating the sequence of events, with overly lush ornamentations. It's a well-balanced program, outlined with gobs of sentiment, where individual soloists are highlighted on a per track basis. (Recommended…) Glenn Astarita JazzReview.com
