Larisa Dolina - "Hollywood Mood"

You can imagine what was added Larisa Dolina jazz album in Hollywood with the compositions of George Duke and Al Jarreau participate in a duet with her. The singer, who once left the jazz-pop, I would have never thought to stop because of the great jazz. Money modest Russian pop music, you can go to Hollywood and write with Duke. Another question that jazz critics have always had a low opinion of jazz talents Valley. And her voice hard and inflexible intonation and lack of warmth. It is hard to imagine that the valley has ever worked to overcome these very real disadvantages. At least the new album confirms the valley "of Hollywood" the worst forebodings. Larisa Dolina - "Hollywood Mood" Angular Soviet jazz 70s managed nearly frozen to move into a studio in Los Angeles and New York. George Duke is trying to diversify the genre palette - here blyuzik and easily, and almost etnodzhaz and Bossa Nova (here in the valley of the tense) and jazz ballads. However, the voice is isolated in the valley of her mood. When Duke gives her a little quick and easy - it valley delicious and powerful. It should offer something ponezhnee and thinner than a respected singer is capable of a bull in a china shop. Duet with Al Jarreau (which is called the cover "Wonder Where You? Are" Just like in the brochure "wonder where"), if intentionally displays absolute vocal and emotional freedom by Al Jarreau and resistance of our jazz singer. In line with Al, it sounds like a music school student, sang the notes. It's really sad to admit. On DVD at the gift to the release of the movie with voice-over, advertising in shops and vegetable market, and budget video for the song imitates "In LA". Come on, that old dream Larisa Dolina. Now we can expect from him even more impressive creative output. Rating: 5 out of 10. Ken Guru, a business newspaper VIEW CD + DVD. Recording Company "Nikitin", 2008.
