Partridge, Sarah - Blame It On My Youth

"Great songs deserve a great voice. These are great songs, and Sarah Partridge owns a great voice. Her enthusiasm for the material brings new life to some old classics. Sarah writes that, as far as her musical influences go, we can "Blame it on her youth", and the music that was playing in her house when she was growing up. If that's true, then all I can say is: 'Thank goodness for her parents' record collection!' And thank goodness for Sarah Partridge. They don't write them like this anymore, and very few can sing them like Sarah does. Enjoy!" (Tony Perkins, Good Morning America). "If Johnny Walker runs true to form, Sarah Partridge can get you to morning. This girl is a throwback to those diamond nights in Manhattan bistros when Lee Wiley, Sylvia Syms, Anita O'Day and June Christy ruled till dawn." (NY Daily News). "If you've never heard Sarah Partridge, you will. She is one superlative singer ... Not only is her song selection captivating, she has a real secure command of herself and the stage." (Dorothy Leeds, WEHM FM). "Sarah Partridge can unreservedly be placed alongside the best jazz-orientated singers. Let's hope that she quickly gains the national (and international) recognition she so richly deserves." (L.A. Jazz Scene)., "She is a pleasure to hear in any emotional guise .admirably assisted by a first-rate jazz ensemble." (Billboard Magazine).
