Ervinna, The Favourites - Ervina The Favourites

Review by Bev Newman

Ervina The Favourites is a delightful album that showcases the musical prowess of Ervinna and her band, The Favourites. The album comprises of ten tracks that are a mix of classic jazz standards and original compositions. Ervinna's voice is soulful, and her delivery is impeccable. She effortlessly transitions from one genre to another, from swing to blues and ballads, showcasing her versatility as a singer.

The band is equally impressive, with each member contributing to the overall sound of the album. The arrangements are tasteful, and the solos are skillfully executed. The album opens with the upbeat "Jump, Jive, and Wail," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Other standout tracks include "My Funny Valentine," "At Last," and "Stormy Monday."

What sets this album apart is the seamless blending of Ervinna's original compositions with the classic jazz standards. The original tracks, such as "I Can't Help Falling in Love" and "Lonely Nights," are just as impressive as the covers, and they showcase Ervinna's songwriting skills.
