“Such a worthy bookend for those of us who still cherish ‘Born to Be Blue'”
–Rex Reed

“It was fascinating to hear Anne Phillips apply her freer, more sophisticated, jazzier style to standards, and her own songs. And her freer, sophisticated, jazzier style is in full display on this outstanding recording.”
–Ron Weinstock, Jazz & Blues Report

“Phillips adds thoughtful anecdotes that help the audience – and now listeners – understand her history in a beautiful, personal way.

Her original gems feel comfortable alongside classics by Mel Torme and The Gershwins. They are even more emotionally gripping.”

–Jonathan Widran, The JW Vibe

“Where has this captivating performer been all our lives?”
