Madeleine Peyroux - Careless Love

Bluesy, night-time, soul-infused jazz, evocatively and languorously sung; highlight is "Between The Bars", piano notes falling like teardrops, melody drifting like rain. Also enjoy Peyroux's take on "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go", and basically likin' the whole record. After a bit of thought, some words which describe her voice: husky, low, warm, caramel, enchanting.
