Details:
From Debbieâs first note to the last, there is no doubt this girl can sing! Her vocals move effortlessly from soft and sultry to powerhouse throughout the recording. She begins by taking a traditionally slow ballad and swings it, in âMy Funny Valentineâ with the help of trumpet talent, John Swana.
"I Thought About You", "Just in Time", "Whatâs New" and "The Nearness of You" are classic jazz standards performed with the traditional jazz trio that allows the listener to feel the excitement of being in a club with the finest house band and a rising star behind the microphone.

"How Much I Love You" comes directly from the heart as the sole original on the project and combines with the unconventional samba version of the standard â(Our) Love is Here to Stayâ to add a Latin flavor to the mix.

The timeless Stevie Wonder song âOverjoyedâ blends seamlessly into the list of standards laced with Latin influence as well as her moody interpretation of Barbra Streisandâs âThe Way He Makes Me Feel.â There is a moving, almost magical experience when all the instruments are stripped away and the Brazilian guitar intermingles with the sensual vocal of âWhen I Look in Your Eyes.â Debbieâs vocal range and intonation are remarkable as evidenced on the crystal clear notes ending the tune.
The CD closes with a powerful piano/vocal duet between Debbie and Talented Jazz Pianist/Producer, Barry Sames.

Peer into the heart of not just a singer, but an impassioned,sensual soul as you listen to the inspired phrasing and evocative delivery of these classics.
