The Bird & The Bee
Interpreting The Masters Vol. 1: A Tribute To Daryl Hall and John Oates
Blue Note
ADDS 3/23/10

Making sublime, sophisticated pop music can be tougher than it sounds. The Bird And The Bee, the duo of singer Inara George and multi-instrumental/Grammy-nominated producer Greg Kurstin, know this not only from the experience of composing original material for their previous full-lengths, the bird and the bee (2007) and Ray Guns Are Not Just The Future (2009), but also occasional forays into the catalogs of other songwriters. Having previously put their stamp on the Bee Gees' "How Deep Is Your Love," and the standards "Tonight You Belong To Me" and "Autumn Leaves," for Interpreting The Masters Volume 1: A Tribute to Daryl Hall and John Oates the pair devotes almost an entire album to the songs of two artists that hold a special place in their hearts.

TRY: #1, 3, 6, 8
