Slinky Germanic singer-actress Ute Lemper made her Broadway debut in Chicago and is known internationally for her interpretations of theatre music, European cabaret songs and tunes by Kurt Weill. Lemper's gig at the Caf‚ Carlyle in Manhattan was recorded live on Feb. 25. 

Blood and Feathers was Ute Lemper's 2005 cabaret show at New York's Café Carlyle. It's a partial survey of her career, nodding to, among other things, her affinity with Kurt Weill ("Pirate Jenny") and her Sally Bowles role in (a Cabaret medley). She incorporates more Weill ("Bilbao Song," "Moon Over Alabama") into a "Moon Medley" that includes Van Morrison's "Moon Dance," Sting's "Moon Over Bourbon Street," Joni Mitchell's "Moon at the Window," the standard "It's Only a Paper Moon," and Tom Waits's "Grapefruit Moon." Lemper also tosses in Sondheim's "The Ladies Who Lunch" and a tribute to fellow German chanteuses Marlene Dietrich and Edith Piaf, and even delivers some of her patter in German and French. To call it an eclectic mix would be an understatement, and she's brash, she's bold, and she leaves it all out there not your normal honey voiced cabaret singer. But that also means Blood and Feathers isn't like the last hundred smooth, generic-sounding cabaret recordings you've heard. That's definitely a good thing. ~ David Horiuchi https://www.amazon.com/Blood-Feathers-Live-Cafe-Carlyle/dp/B0009J4OBS

  1. Hello Giullia, I would like to keep this one, although I have not yet listened to all the tracks. But, track #8 Moon of Alabama is cut off way before the end. Can you please do something & poste "re-up" so that I may download once again. Thanks once again, Roger.

  2. It's me once again to torture you ! ! Roger. Track #5 is also cut at the end - maybe the end of track #6. Sorry to disrupt.

  3. Hey Roger, you are right... but you are wrong. :)
    This is a live album where the end of a track is also the start of the next track. If you listen to track 6 or 9, you will listen the end of the previous track too.
    If you go to amazon, for instance, you will see that the times for these tracks, ares exactly the ones, that are listed here.

    On one thing, I have to agree with you Roger. They could have done a better track separation.
