Sounds Like: What one might hear in a 1930's jazz or blues joint...smoked filled room, scantilly clad diva slithering across the top of a baby grand, accompanied by the magical fingers of the piano man, sucking you in like a tractor beam while this diva pours out her sad, sexy, soulful, hypnotic lullabies. Fix yourself a dirty martini, sit back, relax and enjoy the ride, baby.
