Neither Annette Neuffer want to reproduce the music Chet Baker, heave still chatting with Chet whose inspiration over the Millennium, but simply prove a revered model reference, by singing some of his favorite songs and plays. As the late musical appointed Flügelhornistin discovered jazz, the music Bakers played no small role in their awakening - now came the years vocally long to personal maturity - love of improvised music. On their second CD "But Not For Me" is situated next to Favourites such as "Look For The Silver Lining" or even five elegant homage original text, melody and relaxed swinging performance quite successful overtures to Chet's Mood.

Whether you're hearing double-talent Annette Neuffer for the first time, or following her musical progress for some 10 years as l have, you're in for a special treat with her latest release. She swings effortlessly with her lovely sonorous alto voice, never getting shrill or over-selling a good tune. This is real Jazz singing. Along with the wisely selected rhythm section of Bernhard Pichl, Rudi Engel and Jens Düppe, Ms. Neuffer creates just the right mood on selections as diverse as the bossa-nova "So Nice", and the deep bluesy "Baby All The Time". Check out her savvy handling of the seldom-heard verse to "Someone To Watch Over Me". And let's not forget her really fine trumpet alongside top tenorist Claus Koch, certainly one of the most swinging inventive saxmen out there today. Who could ask for anything more? Keep up the great work, Annette! ~AI Porcino
