(About MP3 downloads at CD Baby)

A wonderful variety of sounds that covers latin, jazz, folk, world, r&b, disco, and pop; music for the rest of us, with rich, dark vocals reminiscent of Cher, Anita Baker, Annie Lennox, Keely Smith, and even Sarah McLachlan

notes

Life interferes while you're busy making plans, which is why I'm just starting out after blankety-blank years of not being able to produce my music; but here I am and I'm not going anywhere but straight to the top. I'm so very happy to be finally recording and playing and singing my music, and I hope to be fitting into many genres, not just one or two. One goal I set for myself many years ago was to be versatile, and I think I've accomplished that. My first album here, First To Last, is a mixture of pop, latin jazz, world, disco, even folk, and a lot of jazz. I just decided to put many sounds into one album because that's the way I write, so even I don't pigeon hole myself (although I consider myself a pop song writer). And when I sing I like to incorporate many styles, especially the blues, because that's where it's at for me, even though my training was classical and operatic. I love many different singers like Laura Nyro, Barbra Streisand, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, Connie Francis, k.d. lang, Doris Day, Cher (more than one person says I sound like Cher), and locally, Sheila Landis and Thornetta Davis. My dream would be to sing with Barbra Streisand, k.d. lang, Connie Francis, or everyone's favorite, Cher. I would also like to sing in front of a full orchestra, because I tend to think of some of my song arrangements that way. I'm grateful to my co-producer, Rick Matle, for helping me find the right musicians and the right sounds for this album's contents, so I could have the "full" sound I was going for.

  • Sweet, hot and powerful mix

    This great cd could be a movie background as well as the romantic, hypnotic mix that it is for personal use.Enjoy as an aphrodisiac. The range is unbelievable.

    Gina's CD is sooooo relaxing. It's real music. Something that the industry has seemed to get away from. The only negative comment that I have is "you can't borrow my copy" get your own.
