Free Music Notes for Zipless
Free Music Review: fabulous
Hit: 5 Stars
this is absolutely a fabulous collection of music. one of my most favorite CDs EVER (and i am not easily pleased). the music is very seductive & beautiful - makes you want to move with it. the lyrics, though very sexual in nature, lie subtly under the music. it makes great dinner music leaving the unknowing unaware of what is being said. it is unlike any of Vanessa Daou's other's albums. i wish she would put out something else comparable to this, but unfortunately i find her other works far less superior.Free Music Review: Oh me oh my
Hit: 4 Stars
I was not familiar with the works of Erica Jong prior to this cd so I really didn't know what to expect, but boy oh boy did I get something different than what Vanessa put out before! This is pure sex to music. Gets you all in the mood. I can't say enough about it, except I wish I would have found this cd much eariler than now. The Big "O" for your ears. Enjoy :)Free Music Review: Sunday Afternoons and *Every* Afternoon

Ok, if you want to own a CD that's guaranteed to elicit a "who's THAT?!?" from every person who hears it, buy this CD. This is one of my very favorite CDs of all time (out of a very large collection across genres). What's most mesmerizing is the sensual beat that's underscored by jazzy/bluesy piano riffs, not to mention Vanessa Daou's sexy, breathy vocals. I have a later CD of hers (Make You Love), and while it's decent, this one's the one to own.
Agree with the other reviewer who noted it's a very HOT thing to pop in the CD player if you're yearning to get that elusive kiss. As to the reviewer whose review has since been summarily and properly panned (0 found it helpful), yes, a few of the lyrics, which are from Erica Jong, are a little, uh, sexual, but forget the lyrics! Just sit back, listen and let the groove of every track on this CD transport you. You won't reach for the skip button on any track. Listen to it front to back and over and over and enjoy the, uh, ancillary benefits. ;)
Free Music Review: Beware
Hit: 5 Stars
A friend once burst into my home and said "YOU MUST PLAY THIS CD NOW," which made me groan a bit inside as she ran to my stereo. I expected to have to feign interest and approval. Instead I felt connected to Ms. Daou's music instantaneously. Six years later I'm still playing this disc at least once a week. Close your eyes and imagine tasting chocolate for the first time. I advise you to beware as this very unique sound and mood is the aural equivalent of superglue to the ear. If you've ever had an evening with a special person where you thought you'd literally die if you didn't kiss them, and you finally did, and it was everything you thought it would be, this is what it sounded like. "Long Tunnel of Wanting You" is that first kiss, and one of the most perfect three and a half minutes of music I've ever heard. The musicianship on every cut is brilliant, this band can play, it's like jazz from a foggy, sensual Twilight Zone. This masterpiece swings, it haunts and it exhilarates. A treasure. Special praise must go to Peter Daou for the clean, understated, intimate production. Got a new lover you want to keep? Forget the roses, give them this CD, and then expect to go places with them you've never gone...Free Music Review: Brilliant jazz/pop forgotten by the public
Hit: 5 Stars
I first discovered Vanessa Daou though an artist profile. I anxiously picked up this album and was blown away. The poetry of Erica Jong weaved thoughout a smoky jazz tapestry is quite siimply brilliant. It's a shame more albums by Vanessa (and other artists like her) go unnoticed by the public when so much crap charts and sells well.
Take note of "Becoming A Nun" and "My love Is Too Much". These tracks stand out not only for their poetic contribution but for the smooth musical backbones.
If you sort of like Sade, Jill Scott or even Enigma, then you will LOVE this album!
