A little gem July 24, 2008 Nettlewine (UK) This is really a nice discovery, if you don't know Melody Gardot's tunes. I didn't know of her before listening to this, and I was pleasantly surprised to find the awful cover concealed a tight little collection of songs. The production takes up the baton from, say, Ray La Montagne or Madeleine Peyroux, if you happen to know either of those chaps, being all smoky clubs and drum brushes and minor key niceness. Though it could be said to threaten, it never drops into hokey caricature, but delivers I think an honest collection of songs, well worth repeated listening.
hauntingly beautiful voice that can melt event the hardest of hearts June 26, 2008 Rocket of Desire! (UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
At twenty-two, singer-songwriter Melody Gardot has a hauntingly beautiful voice that can melt event the hardest of hearts. Drenched in a sublime vapour of mellow blues, eclectic folk and above all jazz, Worrisome Heart is a ten-track collection of original songs co-produced by Melody Gardot and Grammy Award winning producer Glenn Barratt. With a superb narrative, nuanced phrasing and skillfully constructed arrangements, this is a rare and unique album. Echoes of Billie Holiday and Ella
Truly excellent May 16, 2008 TeamScoop (Southern UK) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
A marvellous disc. She was great on Jools and this should not be missed. But it!
Exceptional Talent May 5, 2008 B. Chipman (Sutton Coldfield UK) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have just discovered this artist,she is the epitome of "Smooth". She has a lovely voice, the sound quality is excellent and the arrangements are seamless. At this price it is an absolute bargain, buy it, you will not be disappointed
Lovely! April 29, 2008 H. Dennison (UK) 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
I'm not usually a fan of this kind of music, but the soft jazzy sounds combined with Melody's mellow voice made me simply sit back and relax with a glass of wine! Great background music for dinner parties, or to add ambience to an evening in with a loved one...without wanting to push this album into a pile of cliches, it does - for me - precisely what jazz should do. It's not inspiring but nor is it mundane. Just lovely.
