Refreshing, Brave, Cheerfull and also makes your heart swinging and melting. That's my first impressions listening to this album. Strange when look at the name Coco d'Or but you'd love them later. And then i shocked when knowing that the singer is Hiro, (Former Frontline of SPEED, one of the popular girls pop group in Japan).Everyone who loves j-pop must be knowing her.Well i do, so i really glad that she decide to switch her way to swing jazz. Anyway, back to the album. This fabolous album consist of 16 beautiful remake songs.From the old swing bebop era (Route 66, It's Only A Paper Moon,etc.) until the modern era of contemporary swing jazz (I Can Recall Spain, You're Everything,etc.).From western influence (Summertime) until latin bossas (The face i love).Salute also giving to the producers especially Akio Suzuki who can make arrangement to this very special and rare album which ever made by Hiro. talking about the tracks, i have many favourite tracks here, but my mind always remember these two awesome tracks "Summertime" & "The Face I Love".I highly recomended this awesome album not only to those who love swing & bossas jazz but also to you who love Hiro's voice. At the last, i really hope that Hiro could make some performance with her band right here in Jakarta.I'd love to watch Coco d'Or show.
Listening When: When you sit & relax to enjoy teatime with biscuit, When you drive in night time after lovely dinner date, when you wanna have chill time in jazz lounge.
Verdict: Melting and swinging in my mind
