Crossing over for a singer whose foundation is predominantly jazz was a relatively rare phenomenon in 1994 when Jackie Allen recorded her debut album, Never Let Me Go. That didn't dissuade her from finding common ground between the jazz and pop music worlds. After a over decade of recording and touring, singer-songwriter Allen makes her remarkable Blue Note Records debut with Tangled, exploring arrangements that pay homage to both classic jazz and contemporary composers, while crafting originals that richly showcase her poetic lyricism and sensitive interpretations.
Allen's core band, comprised of keyboardists Laurence Hobgood and Ben Lewis, guitarist John Moulder, bassist Hans Sturm (Allen's husband), and drummer Dane Richeson, delivers a diverse musical scope to this 12-tune collection of jazz-infused, pop-charged arrangements.
Old-school standards include two Rodgers & Hart numbers ("You're Nearer" and "Everything I've Got Belongs to You"), Johnny Mandel's "Solitary Moon," and Michael Dees's "You'll Never Learn." They are balanced by such pop-originated fare as Van Morrison's "When Will I Ever Learn," Donald Fagen's "Do Wrong Shoes," and Randy Newman's "Living without You." The group brings two originals to the mix (the rock-edged "Coal Grey Eyes" by Moulder & Sturm and the heartrending "Hot Stone Soup" by Sturm), while Allen offers three collaborations with poet/writer Oryna Schiffman: the title track, "If I Had," and "Slip."
