	Tower Records - Man In The Air * - Kurt Elling (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		MAN IN THE AIR was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album.
		One of the most distinctive, forward-looking vocalists in contemporary jazz, Kurt Elling is clearly inspired by the likes of Jon Hendricks and Mark Murphy, but assimilates those influences into a strikingly unique style.
		Though he's done his share of standards as well as albums of original material, Elling strikes an interesting balance on MAN IN THE AIR by writing his own lyrics based around pre-existing jazz tunes (a technique pioneered by Hendricks).

	Elling, Kurt at CD Universe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Mojo (10/03, p.112) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Another astonishing album from Elling, currently the best jazz singer around..." CMJ (7/21/03, p.29) - "...Elling is more than just a jazz singer.
		As a contemporary jazz vocalist, Elling incoporated the "vocalese" style of Jon Hendricks and James Moody, the hipster/beatnik slant of monologist/poets like Lord Buckley, and a progressive, visionary quality all his own.
		Every one of Elling's first six albums was nominated for a Grammy award, and he has consistently come out on top in jazz magazine polls, yet due to the uncompromising, left-of-center nature of his work, he continues to be a cult hero, existing outside the mainstream
