...Collette brings you this recently unearthed treasure. It's a live version of "Midnight" taken from the CD release concert for "Zen Boyfriend." This features Canadian jazz legend Richard Underhill along with drummer Adam Warner (who will be back on Collette's forthcoming CD,) bassist Wes Neal, and producer/fall guy John Zytaruk on lap steel. Glad this one-of-a-kind version was documented!
CD Update:Bob Wiseman - November 12, 2011
Collette and John spent an unforgettable couple of hours the other night as the brilliant Bob Wiseman laid down some piano tracks for the new album.
New CD preview/Little Willie John cover - October 2, 2011
Here's a little teaser to give you an idea of what Collette's forthcoming third CD will sound like. Although this won't appear on the CD, this is a cover of Collette performing Little Willie John John's classic "My Love Is." This came about at the very end of the recording sessions when, just for fun and to celebrate the completion of the last song, Collette decided to get everyone to jam on this great song which has long been a favourite in her live repertoire. Recorded in one take this shows the beautiful natural ambience of the church and the exceptional skills of acoustic bassist Brian Kobawakawa, drummer Adam Warner, producer John Zytaruk and master engineer Joe Mancuso. Enjoy!
