I don't usually evangelize about a new album, but I gotta share this one. She's a heck of a jazz drummer, wrote most of the tracks, and she even sings (really well) on most of the songs.

Carlos plays on eight (!) cuts. John McLaughlin on two! Kirk Hammett and Vernon Reid make appearances. Over 120 mins (for regular price) of new tunes!!! Its definitely a drummer's oeuvre, but there's some hella guitar on here. One hell of an album, in fact ;-)

To help with your enjoyment, pay attention to her cymbal work, its truly astonishing how she can keep her cymbals continuously ringing out while simultaneously performing thunderous yet dexterous rolls on 'Velocity' and others, and then add singing. This is art. She may be small in stature, but its a true example of girl power.

Great album, I got it when it first came out. I had the privilege of seeing her play in Mega Nova at the Hollywood Bowl.

This lady plays better than most guy drummers I've heard. Strong Tony Williams influence. Hard to believe she's not done vocals on her albums before.

That's the thing, people usually don't look any deeper than first impressions. The world would benefit from more open-mindedness
