If there must be a star of stars here, it’s Kelly, whose straight-ahead style is free of the contrived wispiness and vocal affectations one might find in lesser talents. Kelly is the type of vocalist instrumentalists love to work with because she works like they do: she’s adept at playing with them and playing off of them.Most importantly, she’s always dead center when it comes to hitting the emotional tenor of the tune.
Vocalist Nancy Kelly’s vocal skills are varied and highly honed. Her sense of phrasing is particularly arresting. She can extend a note to the breaking point, delighting in the tension while toying with her impeccably employed vibrato. Histrionics have no place in the singer’s stylistic inventory. She keeps her cool even when a slow-burn sensuality insinuates its presence. Kelly explores the nuances of lyrics as intently as a jeweler inspects a world-class gemstone.
