" SAVE ME " . . . the title which opens the album of the same name - is a stunning blues number. . stunning rhythmically but especially so in the depth of voice of the singer, JASPA. A Tina Turner voice - warm and powerful which interweaves perfectly with the electric guitar of Philippe . Contagious rock , which the more one listens to the more one wants to join in and become part of a combined experience ! A touch Gospel , on ' Better Side of You ' Jaspa plays her voice with subtle inflections ... she is a Sound - very rock with words that grab you . . but above all she is a voice . .and what a voice ! 'Will I see you again' entices the ear with a languorous and sensual undercurrent . . 'Sleep my baby' darker and metallic is a melancholy ballad strained through a synthesizer. The arrangements are subtle and melodious . . a quiet rush of wonder for the ears ! . . . and above all THIS VOICE ! . . which gives so much pleasure from each of the twelve pieces on the album. . and to finish perfectly are the songs 'Rage ' ( very hard core . . ) and " Save Me " again - but this time acoustic.
An absolutely irresistible CD . .
