5 out of 5 stars An Amazing Debut CD -- Go Toward Love Posthaste!.......2005-02-22

I have listened to this CD about 12 times now, and I've got to say that it just keeps getting better and better. Deborah Latz has so much humanness in her approach to the material -- a sense of joy and perspective that is unique and refreshing. Her phrasing perfectly captures/expresses her philosophy and spunk. Her combo is excellent as well -- great individual and ensemble playing. Did I mention how fun she is to listen to? The beauty and control of her voice? I would much prefer to listen to her than Jane Monheit, Diana Krall, Tierney Sutton, or Patricia Barber. Their approach does not make my heart smile, or my spirit soar. Deborah Latz's Toward Love is a truly remarkable debut album, expressing a rare authenticity and spirit. I can't recommend this CD highly enough, and I look forward to Latz's next endeavor. (By the way, the quality of the engineering and recording is excellent as well.)

5 out of 5 stars Breathtaking.......2004-07-07

Toward Love is by turns fun and heartbreaking, always sensual, music for mind, heart, and soul. Latz makes you hear standards in fresh and surprisingly complex ways. Pure pleasure.

5 out of 5 stars So Fresh!.......2004-06-17

Gorgeous, fresh, and sophisticated versions of some of the best songs of our time. Deborah Latz is wonderful!

5 out of 5 stars Soulful and Stunning.......2004-05-26

Toward Love is a beautifully rendered album of songs about falling in and out of love from the sublime to the painful. Deborah Latz's vocal abilities are stunning and she attacks every song and turns in a fresh and delightful album. It wonderful to listen to the careful way she turns a phrase and makes every song her own. She feels every song from deep within her soul and will bring up your own memories of love. This is a fantastic album that should be required listening for anyone who loves music. Buy it for yourself and someone you love!
