It’s been 100 degrees every day this week, and it stays in the 90’s in the evenings. Makes it difficult to want to get up on the dance floor and dance. Putumayo read my mind this week and released this compilation of excellent slow dances from French Quebec. Jazz stylings with a dance beat makes for a great cool-down evening. Sips of iced teas between songs helps! As usual, all the cuts on the album are well-selected and my ears are grateful for the editor who programmed the selections. There are eleven artists you’ll want to become more familiar with on this CD. Shouts for Martin Léon ("are you avoiding the stare of a lover?"), Marie-Annick Lépine ("listening to Neil Young in the living room. . .we put our small sorrows aside") & Myreille Bédard ("chilled white wine under the wisteria").
