Daughter of legendary musician Rufus Thomas, singer, songwriter, producer and actress Vaneese Thomas keeps alive the legacy and spirit of styles like ‘Memphis Soul’, rhythm and blues, gospel, blues and jazz, she has been surrounded and lived with since her childhood. Her immense vocal qualities have allowed her to work with great performers like Luciano Pavarotti, Sting, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion or Eric Clapton among other luminaries.
Besides working in television and in several films, Vaneese has developed an intense musical career marked by very good albums, which is the case of this recording where Vaneese’s vocal qualities, delivery and sensuality are present in each and every one of the facets she shows along the whole recording.
This last work gathers twelve own compositions that become a magnificent example of the best contemporary soul that one can find in the actual black music scene, developed with quality and firmly based in soul music roots.
Backed by a wide sturdy group of musicians that display an impressive sound, Vaneese’s voice stands up as the real undisputed leading role of this appetizing recording, in a restrained but at the same time spectacular album that will surely leave a significant mark in every good music lover. GREAT.
