Please Help Me: I Am A Prisoner in the Land of the Really Bad Singer

[AllenLowe]

have I lost my mind or this the worst musical assocation of a great jazz musician since Carmen Leggio, a wonderful guy, decided he was going to spice up his band with a bad female flute player?

I feel like this is an out-take from a high school variety show:

Now, now, it's not that bad! I've listened to some of Aurora, and I appreciate the unusual approach Serpa and Blake take, but I do think she sounds out of tune at times.

[AllenLowe]

you are being overly generous, I think. I'm just shocked that Ran Blake has made 2 cds with her. And to think he turned down Mrs. Miller.

She worships at altar of Our Lady the Out-of-Tune, Astrud Gilberto.

And she doesn't seem to care.

Start driving south and at any gathering of people, shoot as many as you can.

Awful smirk.

Could be worse. He could have teamed up with Lou Reed.

At least this singer can sing in tune when she wants to.

I could not listen to it. New England Conservatory cranked out this voice? Sad.

Did she get good grades singing this out of tune?

[AllenLowe]

it's really strange, because Ran Blake is not just another piano player - is this some kind of thing related to lost youth? Does he feel flattered by her attention? She is below the rank of amateur -

The next member of the Allen Lowe group? "Letizia is an ... old soul..." Lenny White.

'The West Coast Allen Lowe Band'

Actually her music sounds like Abba making an album with Sting's Jazz band.

Perhaps she could fill in for this guy if he is indisposed.

[AllenLowe]

singers are problematic - Al Haig told me he couldn't stand any of them except for Helen Merrill - he said "they all want to be actresses."

They should launch a band with Grace Kelly as musical director.
