“Jazz singer Fred Farell has made his name both as a soloist and as an ensemble singer. He has acted for 5 decades. This is his debut for the Whaling City Sound label, thanks to his composers and friends, saxman Dave Liebman and pianist Richie Beirach. Fred wrote the lyrics himself. ‘Broken Wing’ has an unconventional rhyme, and sounds like a ‘film noir’. The same applies to the other songs, except for the 2 instrumental tracks, ‘Forgotten Fantasies’ and ‘Zal’. ‘Leaving’ has a very long intro, and that also applies to the longest track here ‘Mitsuku’. If you like melancholic sung jazz, this CD will please you. If not, carefully taste!”
