Caro Emerald: Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor (Dramatico)
IN her native Holland, Caro Emerald is all that and a bag of chips with an album that topped the Dutch charts for five months, a record in those parts and it's no real surprise.
Her classic swing-era songs with a bit of R'n'B to keep things up to date appeal pretty much across the board.
The musicianship is immaculate and the vocals superb as you would expect of the woman who coaches contestants of Dutch X Factor. Easy to like, hard to resist: a real find.
Verdict: 4/5
