“Steeped in Strayhorn is one of the best takes on Billy's beautiful songbook since Ellington's own deeply felt And His Mother Called Him Bill. Lucia Newell glows on this program. The intense romance, the super-sophisticated swing, the playfulness, the intoxication, the morbid streak - she gets it!…The material's timeless. The singer is skillful and soulful. The arrangements are fresh. The band’s outstanding. Now, the pleasure’s all yours. Enjoy!"

“Lucia Newell’s voice is a wonderful instrument with a warm and pure jazz sound that elegantly dresses up these standards and Brazilian ballads. Joan Griffith’s guitar playing, too, is another example of ‘less being more.’ She has a delicate swinging feel and her simplicity brings out the human side of these beautiful and too often neglected classics.”
