This intimate and inspired series of duets effectively pays twin tributes. Initially conceived by Theodore as a tribute to the revered vocalist and popular music icon Peggy Lee, whose alluring, "cool" style captivated listeners through the '40s, '50s & '60s, it also stands as a tribute to the late guitar great Joe Beck, who passed away on July 22, 2008 at age 62 due to complications from lung cancer.While Theodore may have sparked the notion of interpreting tunes written by the songwriting partnership of Peggy Lee and her guitarist-husband Dave Barbour, it was Beck who came up with the intriguing arrangements and reharmonizations that underscore this winning collaboration. Their chemistry together is apparent on these 16 gems, from million-sellers like "Why Don't You Do Right?" (Lee's 1943 hit with Benny Goodman), "Manana (Is Soon Enough For Me)" (the most popular song of 1948) and her smash hit from 1958, "Fever," to more obscure but no less engaging offerings like "Take A Little Time To Smile" and "My Small Senor."There's an easy, organic flow to their give-and-take together. Everything is strictly in the moment with these two first-take daredevils, yet artfully executed. (PRWeb Aug 22, 2009)

Stellar sidemen on this project include saxophonist Bob Sheppard, who toured with Chick Corea's "Origin" for two years, and is featured on Chick Corea's Grammy nominated CD "Change." Walt Fowler's (flugelhorn) credits include working with Billy Childs, James Taylor and Frank Zappa. Acoustic bassist Darek "Oles" Oleszkiewicz's partial list of collaborations include Brad Mehldau, Billy Higgins, and Pat Metheny. On electric bass, Jimmy Johnson has worked with John Abercrombie, Sergio Mendes, and Lee Ritenour. Drummer Jimmy Branly has past projects with Flora Purim and Airto Moreira as well as Brandon Fields. Charlie Banacos writes in the great liner notes that "This is one of those extraordinary recordings that will please many listeners." Good advice from someone who knows his stuff!

"Graceful Soul" consists of guitarists Jim Robitaille and Bob Schlink, saxophonist Marcus Monteiro and a rock-steady rhythm section of Bill Miele on bass and drummer Ken Hadley. This CD has captured what happens when a soulful vocalist is united with a group of seasoned musicians, with free rein granted. The result; A powerful live performance captured for all to enjoy. Eleven tracks, including Sam Cooke's "Bring it on Home to Me," and Lennon & McCartney's "You Can't do That" are performed to perfection. Two versions of "Amazing Grace" are also included; One, a vocal version recorded as part of this performance, and the other, a bonus instrumental version, recorded ten-years earlier to the date, which featured a duet of saxophonists Al Oliveira and Dino Govoni. A very dynamic CD that's well worth a listen (PRWeb Mar 13, 2009)
