Our Take

Title: BETTY CARTER The Modern Sound Of Betty Carter

If you thought you knew Betty Carter, think again. The Modern Sound Of Betty Carter takes the legendary jazz vocalist to new heights, pushing boundaries and defying expectations at every turn.

From the moment you press play, you're hit with the full force of Carter's powerhouse vocals. Each note is delivered with precision and emotion, leaving you hanging on her every word. The range of her voice is truly something to behold, soaring effortlessly from sultry lows to dizzying highs.

But what sets this album apart is its modern sensibility. Carter always had a knack for blending genres, but here she takes it to a whole new level. The fusion of jazz, soul, and even a hint of hip-hop creates a sound that is both timeless and cutting-edge.

Standout tracks include the infectious "Groove Me", where Carter's vocals glide over a funky bassline, and the hauntingly beautiful "I Fall in Love Too Easily", which showcases her depth and vulnerability.

Ultimately, The Modern Sound Of Betty Carter is a testament to a true musical maverick. Carter's fearless approach to her craft is an inspiration, and this album is a must-listen for any fan of jazz or music in general. So grab a glass of wine, sit back, and let Betty Carter take you on a journey you won't soon forget.
