After establishing momentum with her US debut, "PIANO, piano," and expanding her audience remarkably with several concert apperances in New York City (including Lincoln Center and an SRO performance at the 2007 IAJE conference), the gorgeous French diva Anna Ducros is back with her new offering, "Urban Tribe." The disc unites her with major players on the NY scene - Essiet Essiet on bass and Bruce Cox on drums. Highlights include her bold intepretation of Beatles� "Sexy Sadie", and an assortment of delicious standards and love songs such as "You and the Night and the Music", "Easy To Love" and the Otis Redding classic, "Dock of the Bay".
Anne Ducros' second Dreyfus CD is a mixed bag. After an impressive first effort for the label, this session opens with two dreadful numbers, a bland pop interpretation of the Beatles' "Sexy Sadie" (not one of the typical Beatles' pieces chosen by jazz musicians), and an annoying original by her pianist Oliver Hutman, "When I Know, If I Know," which sounds as if it was written during the heyday of disco. Fortunately, Ducros regains focus on the sound of jazz for the remaining tracks, scatting up a storm in "Up Jumped Spring," delivering a moving interpretation of the melancholy "I Fall in Love Too Easily," and offering a playful "Who Can I Turn To." Ducros does not take a lot of liberties with Otis Redding's soulful "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay," though her decision to sing it as a duet with bassist Essiet Essiet keeps it from getting dull. Saxophonist Ada Rovatti is added on several tracks, providing a rich backdrop for the singer in a breezy setting of "Over the Rainbow." Drummer Bruce Cox provides excellent support throughout this disc.
