“The first time I saw Melinda Whitaker I was knocked off my feet by the sheer warmth of her personality and presence. Anyone who has heard Melinda’s voice knows its smoky brilliance, the seductive, electrical charge that this wonderful performer can bring to a song.” ~ Dr. Peter Gouzouasis, Music Director, Jazz90/Wrti (1983-1988)
With a lush, rich voice that shifts effortlessly from smoke to silk, Melinda will captivate you from the very first song. ‘The Touch of Your Lips’ features fresh, joyful, swinging standards drawn from the classic American songbook. Inspired and infused by the magic of the spanish language during her sojourn in Costa Rica, Melinda’s lyrical ballads “Besame Mucho” and “What A Diff’rence A Day Makes” will transport you to a world of breezy palm trees and velvet warm nights.
Melinda is accompanied on this recording by a formidable Canadian trio featuring Miles Black on piano, Tommy Doran on drums, and Rick Kilburn on bass. Together, their musical chemistry is pure, smooth and magical. “The Touch of Your Lips” will resonate with you long after the last note has sounded. http://vancouverjazz.com/2005/02/melinda-whitaker.html
Personnel: Melinda Whitaker – vocals; Miles Black – piano; Tommy Doran – drums; Rick Kilburn – bass
