Maggie is Maggie in her prime! Maggie fulfills the promise indicated by her first two albums. "The Big Seduction" is my favorite of her pieces.
It is a husky, jazzy piece. Her 4-5 octave range and inventive scat singing let her fully realize the emotion inherent in all these romantic
lyrics. I hope she continues to write and sing for us.
