Album Notes

As I started to track the early release of this CD I was transported back to a simpler time when I was writing entertainment columns for a big city morning newspaper. One night I happened into a local restaurant in the trendy part of town and was immediately captivated by what I heard. A young woman was offering up crystal clear vocals backed by lovely piano riffs. She moved fluidly from original material to covers of popular songs of the day and standards from the traditional catalog.
She was charming. Captivating. Immensely talented. My review of her performance that night said that.

Over the years Kathy and I have become friends and now, some forty years later, I find myself once again recommending her to the attention of any and all who will listen to her. From "Twisted" to "A Case of You" and "Carey" she still has the lovely voice I remember from all those years ago. And the maturity and mastery that comes with time is manifest in her original compositions on this record. I am a lucky man. I know now what I knew then: Kathy Simpson is a true talent and a gift to all who hear her. ~ Bob Sammon
