Jennifer Madsen is another of the young singers who have discovered the richness and eternal greatness of the American Songbook. With definite hipness, confidence, and rather amazing range, she gives vitality and freshness to a bevy of “forever” tunes like “I Can't Give You Anything But Love”, “Willow Weep For Me”, “Honeysuckle Rose”, “Someone To Watch Over Me”, and lots more. I particularly found her take on “Beyond The Sea” quite endearing. She doesn't take the swinging Bobby Darin approach; instead, she treats it as a ballad and it works impressively. With a diverse backing from several players, Jennifer Madsen works the standard repertoire with both authority and affection.
