"Jane Monheit has a lovely voice, one that in its purest, most lilting form reminds you of the young Barbra Streisand, with the show-stopping qualities that suggests. Her haunting rendition of Sergio Mendes'"So Many Stars," the runaway highlight of Surrender, is also one of the best things she's ever done. (Mendes arranged and produced the track and plays keyboard on it.) Since she stopped trying so hard to be a jazz singer and found her mark as a popular vocalist specializing in Brazilian music (there are also guest turns by singer Ivan Lins and harmonica great Toots Thielemans), Monheit has sounded more at home with herself. " 
 
I was thinking Barbara Streisand & Brazilian chanteuses, just to get in the neighborhood of if-you-dig-so-&-so-you-might dig-her.  Maybe a swing & a miss, nevertheless this recording is subtly romantic.

Warren Haynes' Ashes & Dust is one of my 2016 favorites, Dennis. He organizes an annual Xmas Jam in Asheville (hometown boy) for charity.
