HMV Review

Singer Cassandra Wilson, who has had a rather diverse career that has ranged from the free funk of M-Base to standards a la Betty Carter, has in recent times adopted a folk-oriented style a little reminiscent of Nina Simone. On New Moon Daughter her repertoire ranges from U2 to Son House, from Hoagy Carmichael to Hank Williams (I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry); it is certainly the only album ever that contains both the Monkees' Last Train to Clarksville and Strange Fruit. This CD is a surprise best-seller, for Wilson's voice actually sounds quite bored and emotionally detached. She deserves great credit for stretching herself, but one has to dig deep to find any warmth in her overly cool approach. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide

    しっとりと愛しく哀しく深く誰かを想いお酒と一緒に…泣きそうになる時もあった…。 女で良かった。多分女性の方がぐっとくる作品じゃないかな。男性の方ゴメンナサイ。

    dark&warmな情緒。 月明かりや、虫の音、遠くの列車の音、真っ暗だけど心地好い闇の中ってたぶん、こんな感じ。あなたの世界観がもう一つ広がります。
