 Rating: - Worrisome Heart is wonderfulI received a free itunes download and liked it so much I ordered the album right away. I hope she has a long career! Rating: - Gardot's Worrisome Heart More Than Mere TherapyMelody Gardot's release "Worrisome Heart" might have had its start in trying to rehabilitate the singer after a devastating auto accident, but it turns out to be an outstanding release by a very talented musician.

Yes...Melody's sweet melodies will carry with you throughout your day.

The simple, straight-n-chaser jazzclub sound. Unrelentant, unrepentant clarity that cuts into the soul like Tom Waits giving up his once-grand ability to reach in and hold your heart in his hand. classic blue jazz imagery that frankly, is magnificent. I heard one track and had to have it. Just about the coolest CD you can buy right now. Ms Gardot, ... Read More Rating: - Outstanding musicI sampled Melody's music on itunes and bought it here. Her music is very moody and soulful. It reminded me so much of Norah Jones whom I love very much. After I bought one for myself, I thought of a friend and bought one for her a few days later. Check out Melody's music. I hope you find it as enjoyable to listen to as I. |
