Greta Matassa- All This and Heaven Too: Live At Bake's Place (CD)
Greta Matassa is one of several superior vocalists to come out of the Pacific Northwest. Like all good singers, she has inspired hyperbole from the critics, who have hunkered down over their keyboards wondering whether to describe her as husky, crisp, ebullient, wailing, girlish or jaded. According to her fans, she can and will display all these facets in a typical live performance, a versatility bordering on scatter-brained that was perhaps influenced by her parents' frequent relocations when she was a youngster. This 10 track live set was recorded at Bake's Place in Redmond, WA in 2001. Features vibraphonist Susan Pascal, pianist Randy Halberstadt, bassist Clipper Anderson and drummer Mark Ivester. Originally released in 2001.
Tracklist:
- Why Try To Change Me Now / Crazy He Calls Me
- Come Rain or Come Shine
- All This and Heaven, Too
- Ruby
- Blue Prelude
- I Never Had A Chance / I Don't Stand A Ghost Of A Chance With Yo
- He Was Too Good to Me
- You and the Night and the Music
- My Ship
- Close Your Eyes
