Her songs are very nicely written, and sweetly sung in a sort of mIddle of the road way in which, I think, was popular in the 80s Jazz-pop genre. Leland Sklar’s bass playing sounded great! I think Luis Conte added some, what sounded like, mouth popping and teeth “high-hatting” tracks to one of her songs. Haha! Pretty cool!! It’s always good to see “THE Boys” recording with female artists as well. Bravo to ya, men!! ??????
