Amazon.co.uk Review My One And Only Thrill follows on from Gardot's debut album, Worrisome Heart--a record that established the singer-songwriter as a serious (and seriously global) talent. Fans will be pleased to hear that her seductive mélange of subdued jazz, introspective blues and insouciant pop is continued on this second outing. Mercurial double bass, whispered hi hats and melodic piano and sax flow mellifluously through tracks such as the tranquil “On The Rain”, the torch song “Baby I'm A Fool” and the swinging “Who Will Comfort Me?” Of special note is Gardot’s weightless, samba-fied version of Harold Arlen's “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” and the Blue Note-esque “Les Etoiles”. If you love Sinatra, Holiday, Jobim and Fitzgerald, you’ll find it hard not to dig Gardot. --Danny McKenna

What a beautiful voice, 2010-08-05 Not sure what my menfolk think of her but I love this CD. She has a truly beautiful and soulful voice.
Don't hesitate just buy this CD, 2010-08-01 Find some time to sit on your own, put this CD on and let it grab you. It won't be instant but let the voice in your head be silent and the mood will come to you, very, very nice...
What a find!, 2010-05-16 Stumbled on Melody Gardot on BBC4 American Song Book series. The best (decidedly not Judy Garland) rendition of Over the Rainbow I've ever heard, and the rest of the album doesn't disappoint.
A delight from start to finish, 2010-06-05 There are many a singer who can have voices that you like to hear, but with Melody Gardot she does the other important thing ... that is sing songs the way you want them sung. This is album full of songs that catch your attention for that very reason.
There is a nuance in her voice that can make you smile, it has an edge or a lilt which is uniquely hers.
If this album is anything to go by she will soon get a much wider audience, and hopefully she will be around for a long time to come.
Melody Gardot., 2010-03-22 This is the first CD I have of Melody Gardot. I think it is fantastic. Her voice is fabulous. Looking forward to her next album.
