 CD Review of Lorraine Feather - Such Sweet Thunder on Sanctuary Records @ jazzreview.com
The recordings of Lorraine Feather just better each time she records, and if it isn’t obvious yet, she is stepping into the shoes of jazz-oriented lyricists like Jon Hendricks Bob Dorough or Dave Frishberg with her ability to match the sentiment of an instrumental composition with piquant and precisely cadenced words.
Hints of Such Sweet Thunder appeared on Café Society when she supplied lyrics for Ellington’s “Creole Love Song” and “Rockin’ in Rhythm.” Now, Feather has recorded her most engaging and thematically consistent album yet, Such Sweet Thunder, for which she has written the words for 11 of Ellington’s or Ellington/Strayhorn’s compositions.
As if Feather’s lyrics and delivery weren’t enough, she, as the album’s co-producer, has engaged the services of several arrangers for attaining precisely the musical results that she seeks, the various musicians of Such Sweet Thunder having as much fun with the music as does she.
