Blue Alert

Product Description

Product Overview

• Format: Audio CD, May 2 2006

Anjani Amazon.ca Honolulu-born singer-songwriter Anjani's
story is the stuff of great fiction. After playing the New York jazz club
circuit for years, she was introduced to celebrated Canadian poet, author, and
songwriter Leonard Cohen. Immediately drawn to her talents, he brought her
onboard as a keyboardist and vocalist, where she provided some background work
on a number of his CDs. After finding a few lines of Cohen's handwritten
lyrics lying on his desk one day (specifically "there's perfume burning in the
air/bits of beauty everywhere"), Anjani was not just drawn to them, the words
inspired her to write a song in their honor ("Blue Alert"). After hearing the
result, the Order of Canada-winning poet was so impressed that he eventually
allowed her the chance to cull through both his published and unpublished
works for additional lyrics. The result is the album Blue Alert, a collection
of gentle music tinged with styles ranging from Holly Cole to Tanita Tikaram,
with an overriding sense of cool jazz throughout. Listening to "No One After
You" sends the listener straight into a '60s beatnik club, while "Half the
Perfect World" incites a bossa nova feel. There are light Irish stylings
sprinkled in the music as well, from the evocative lilt of "The Mist" to her
mournful performance on "Crazy to Love You." Coproducer Cohen's rhythm and
pacing is all over the disc, with Anjani's semi-whispered drawl making the
songs sound eerily Leonard-like. Fans of the legendary Canadian writer will
likely be charmed by these minimalist numbers, and enjoy this new extension of
his artistic reach. --Denise Sheppard
