Erika: Obsession
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Young vocalist Erika springs a surprise on herself with Obsession. Japanese by birth and schooled relatively recently in jazz, she is not only pitch-perfect while singing in English, but negotiates Brazilian charts in Portuguese with near perfect emotion (if not always perfect diction). The biggest surprise of all is the Japanese repertoire, with which she rounds ...
Erika: Obsession
by Bruce Lindsay
Obsession is vocalist Erika Matsuo's debut CD, but it comes after a long and varied musical career that includes the all-girl rock band Tear Drops, in her native Japan, and work with the City College of New York's Latin jazz band.

by AAJ Italy Staff
Per capire che ci si trova davanti a un'artista raffinata e complessa basta ascoltare la tesa e languida cover di “Eleanor Rigby," posta proprio in apertura di questo sorprendente Obsession. Tessa Souter è una cantante senza dubbio fortemente imparentata col jazz, ma incline a un concetto di musica nel quale predominano saldi appigli alla forma-canzone classica. ...
David Sanchez: Obsession
by John Sharpe
It comes as no surprise that David Sanchez, who was born in Puerto Rico and started playing tenor at age 12, would want to fill Obsesion with compositions from his homeland, Brazil and Cuba. These are the sounds he grew up with. The only tune by a non-Latin American is Cuban Fantasy, written by American pianist ...
