A romantic journey through the Mexican Corrido, French Cabaret, Bossa, American Jazz, and more. What seems a disparate collection is firmly melded together by supple vocals â pristine in the classical, smoky in the jazz and many shades between and beyond

Details:
Singer and songwriter Jessie Turner, best-known for her original compositions, follows the lead taken in her last CD in which she began her affair with international music. In this, her first CD primarily of covers, she takes us on a romantic journey through the Mexican Corrido, French Cabaret, Bossa, American Jazz, and other varied selections. This seemingly disparate collection of songs is firmly melded together by Turnerâs supple vocals â pristine in the classical pieces, subtle and smoky in the jazz ballads, and many shades between and beyond.

Jessie Turner's songs and singing have a unique power and originality. She is blazing a promising path toward becoming one of the notable singer-songwriters of her generation. - Paul Winter

A beautiful voice quality - Yusef Lateef

Jessie Turner has been to school. Her degree in classical singing and jazz workshops with Max Roach and Billy Taylor show up clearly. - Michael Ross, Women Who Rock

â¦Sexy, dreamyâ¦excellent, versatile vocal chords; she soars on the high notes and drops to a sultry alto. - San Francisco Bay Guardian

A beautiful, liquid soprano (that) holds pitch well and flows through a couple of octaves like a clear mountain stream. Her dynamics, even during a single number, may range from a wiser to a rousing, full-throated proclamatory line.

- Philip Elwood, San Francisco Examiner
